Benefits of technology

[0005]The system according to the invention has for this purpose the feature that at least the second fixing element is manufactured from substantially stiff material, that the second fixing element is provided with a substantially flat adhering surface, and the co-acting connecting means are arranged substantially centrally on the first and second fixing element. By embodying the second fixing element in stiff material the surface which adheres to the skin can remain relatively small relative to the article of clothing. This increases wearer comfort. In addition, suitable types of adhesive also perform better on a stiff surface than on a fabric surface as in the known system.
[0008]The system according to the invention has for this purpose the feature that the connecting means form a sliding connection. A sliding connection has the advantage that the article of clothing can be easily attached to the skin.
[0014]The shapes of the cross-section of the elevation and the channel-like recess preferably co-act such that the first fixing part is rotatable relative to the second fixing part. This further enhances the wearer comfort of the system.

Problems solved by technology

In practice these connections are very uncomfortable for a user of the system, since a pushing or a pulling movement has to be made in order to connect or release the system to or from the body.
This has the result that the skin of the user is pushed in or stretched and causes an uncomfortable sensation.

embodiment 2

[0028]FIG. 2 shows the first preferred embodiment 2 of the system according to the invention. System 2 is formed by first fixing element 2-1 and second fixing element 2-2. First fixing element 2-1 is preferably cylindrical and embodied in plastic, and provided with a edging 2-3. First fixing element 2-1 is intended for attachment to the article of clothing (not drawn). First fixing element 2-1 is provided for this purpose with holes 2-4 so that the first fixing element 2-1 can be attached to the article of clothing using thread. In addition, it is also possible to attach first fixing element 2-1 to the article of clothing by means of clamping member 2-5. Clamping member 2-5 is pressed here through the fabric of the article of clothing, wherein pin 2-6 of clamping member 2-5 is received clampingly in the corresponding hole 2-7 in first fixing element 2-1.

[0029]Second fixing element 2-2 is provided with a flat side and manufactured from stiff material, preferably of plastic. The flat ...

embodiment 3

[0030]FIG. 3 shows the second preferred embodiment 3 of the system according to the invention. System 3 is formed by first fixing element 3-1 and second fixing element 3-2. A channel-like recess 3-5 is arranged in first fixing element 3-1. First fixing element 3-1 is intended for attachment to the article of clothing (not drawn). Second fixing element 3-2 is provided with a closing edge 3-9 which is arranged on an elevation 3-8. Second fixing element 3-2 is intended for attachment to the body and is connected to the body in the same manner as second fixing element 2-2 of the first preferred embodiment. When first fixing element 3-1 is connected to second fixing element 3-2, elevation 3-8 is slid through channel-like recess 3-5, after which the edging of channel-like recess 3-5 is secured by closing edge 3-9. First fixing element 3-2 preferably has a passage 3-4 for passage of closing edge 3-9. The length of channel-like recess 3-5 can in this way remain limited. The second preferred...
