Definitions

  • the embodiments herein relate generally to clothing, and more particularly, to a button slidably engaged with a track for adjusting the size of a garment.
  • buttons are designed to engage with a buttonhole.
  • a conventional button only provides the ability to have clothing fit at one sizing.
  • many individuals do not perfectly fit a predefined size. For example, if a male is buying pants and has a size 35 waist, a 34 may be too tight and a 36 may be too big. As a result, he is required to choose a pair of pants that does not fit him quite correctly.
  • a user’s waist size may vary over the course of a day, week, month, or year.
  • production runs can be inconsistent when producing a particular size and can vary up to 1/2'”, meaning that a first pair of pants from a particular production run may fit slightly different than a second pair of pants from a particular production run. This can be even more problematic when comparing one brand’s size to the same size in a different brand, making purchasing different brands of a similar item of clothing frustrating.
  • conventional clothing does not include adjustable fasteners to provide for adjustments, such as fine tune adjustments, to the clothing

Abstract

La présente invention concerne des dispositifs qui règlent l'ajustement d'un vêtement. Auparavant, les vêtements classiques ne comprenaient pas d'éléments de fixation réglables pour permettre des ajustements, tels que des ajustements de réglage fin, sur le vêtement. Des modes de réalisation de la présente invention utilisent un rail de monorail avec une pluralité de dents de rail espacées le long d'une longueur de celui-ci. Un chariot de rail est en prise coulissante avec le rail de monorail. Un bouton est fixé de manière fonctionnelle au chariot de rail. Au moins l'un du chariot de rail et du bouton comprend un dispositif de verrouillage pour venir en prise de manière amovible avec la pluralité de dents de rail.
