Benefits of technology

"The present invention is an invisible zipper that includes two tapes, two teeth chains, a top stop, a bottom stop, and a functional slider body for pulling the teeth chains. Additionally, there is an ornamental slider body that can be moved on the teeth chains and has a locking device for securely attaching it to the teeth chains. The ornament can be made of various materials and shapes. The technical effects of this invention include an invisible zipper that is easy to use and has a unique appearance."

Problems solved by technology

However, because each slider body has a center structure, a hole is left between the slider body and the teeth chains.
Therefore, this imaginary design is not workable.
