Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of clothing accessories and clothing technology, and in particular to a sliding chain and clothing. Background Technology
[0002] Slip chains generally consist of a mother component and a daughter component. The relative sliding of the mother and daughter components is achieved through a continuous arrangement of teeth. They are now widely used in clothing, packaging, pockets, tents, etc. Typically, the teeth of the daughter component slide within the teeth of the mother component. For example, when applied to the connection between clothing and hats, one component connects to the clothing and the other to the hat, allowing the hat to easily rotate with the head.
[0003] For example, Chinese invention patent (publication number: CN114468483A) discloses a slip chain that achieves smooth sliding through the cooperation of the mother component, the child component, the teeth of the mother component, and the teeth of the child component. However, when this slip chain is used, such as in hooded clothing or raincoats, it is necessary to set closures at both ends of the mother component to block the slip track formed by the mother component. For example, Chinese patent application (publication number: CN214547725U) discloses a slip chain that has a fixing effect to prevent the mother component and the child component from separating.
[0004] In clothing applications, given that the normal human head turning angle is about 175°, the free relative sliding allowance for clothing and hats is approximately 12cm. When using the two solutions mentioned above, the main component is connected to the clothing, and the sub-component is connected to the hat. The slide rail formed by the teeth of the main component is generally 54cm long, and the slide rail formed by the teeth of the sub-component is generally 40cm long. This means that when the head is not turned, there is a 7cm allowance on each side that is not restricted by the connection, resulting in insufficient coverage of the hat. During use, this leads to poor heat insulation performance of the hat or easy leakage when using the raincoat, resulting in poor user experience.
[0005] Meanwhile, considering the individual lengths of the sub-components and the parent component, as well as their combined lengths, different body types require different neckline sizes. For example, when fitting children's clothing, if the children's neckline length is 45cm, the upper limit of the parent component's toothed array is 43cm, while the sub-component's toothed array needs to be 14cm smaller than 43cm, resulting in only 29cm. This means the hat and clothing only have a 29cm connection allowance, making the hat prone to loosening, aesthetically unappealing, and requiring children to extend their arms far back to grasp it, making it very difficult to use.
[0006] inconvenient.
[0007] In summary, existing chains and apparel suffer from problems such as loose edges on hats, poor fit, and weak connection strength in clothing. Therefore, based on this situation, it is necessary to design a new type of chain and apparel. Summary of the Invention
[0008] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a sliding chain and clothing.
[0009] The technical problem solved by this invention is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0010] A sliding chain includes a mother component assembly and a daughter component assembly. The mother component assembly includes a mother component base belt and mother component teeth spaced apart from the mother component base belt. The mother component teeth form tooth cavities and main sliding portions, and a plurality of tooth cavities and main sliding portions form a slide rail. The daughter component assembly includes a daughter component base belt and daughter component teeth spaced apart from the daughter component base belt. The daughter component teeth are slidably connected to the slide rail.
[0011] The slide extends along a first direction, and the sub-assembly is movable relative to the parent assembly between a first position and a second position, wherein the first position is located on one side of the second position in the first direction;
[0012] It also includes a first limiting member, which is disposed on the baseband of the mother component and is disposed in the toothed queue of the mother component and spaced apart.
[0013] The sub-component assembly further includes a second limiting member, which is disposed on the sub-component baseband, and is disposed in the sub-component tooth queue and spaced apart, with the second limiting member located between the first limiting members;
[0014] When the sub-component assembly is in the first position, the second limiting member at one end of the sub-component baseband abuts against the adjacent first limiting member; when the sub-component assembly is in the second position, the second limiting member at the other end of the sub-component baseband abuts against the adjacent first limiting member.
[0015] Preferably, the first limiting member is disposed at both ends of the toothed queue of the mother piece.
[0016] Preferably, the second limiting member is symmetrically arranged in the tooth queue of the sub-piece.
[0017] Preferably, the mother tooth further includes a mother base and a tooth arm. The mother base is connected to the mother base belt, and the tooth arm includes a base and an arm. The base is connected to one end of the mother base, and the arm extends to the other end of the mother base to cooperate with the mother base to form the tooth cavity and the main sliding part.
[0018] Preferably, the toothed arm is disposed opposite to both ends of the base of the mother component, wherein one end
[0019] The arm of the toothed arm extends toward the arm of another toothed arm, and the base of the mother piece cooperates with the toothed arms at both ends to form a tooth cavity, and the middle groove opposite the arm forms the main sliding part.
[0020] Preferably, the first limiting member includes a limiting seat body, the limiting seat body is connected to the base band of the mother component, and the limiting seat body is also connected to an elastic member, the elastic member being located at both ends of the slide rail;
[0021] The second limiting member includes limiting teeth and a protrusion, the limiting teeth are connected to the base band of the sub-component, and the protrusion is formed on the limiting teeth;
[0022] Wherein, the protrusion at one end of the sub-component base belt abuts against one end of the elastic element. When a force greater than the deformation force of the elastic element is applied to the sub-component base belt along the direction of the parent component base belt, the elastic element deforms to cause the second limiting element to disengage from the elastic element from the slide rail.
[0023] Preferably, the first limiting member includes a limiting seat body, the limiting seat body is connected to the base band of the mother part, the limiting seat body forms a limiting inner cavity and a secondary sliding part, the elastic member is located in the limiting inner cavity, the sub-part teeth include a connecting part and teeth, the connecting part is connected to the sub-part base band, the connecting part is adapted to the main sliding part and the secondary sliding part, the teeth are adapted to the tooth inner cavity and the limiting inner cavity, so that the teeth can slide in the tooth inner cavity and the limiting inner cavity, and the connecting part can slide in the main sliding part and the secondary sliding part.
[0024] Preferably, the elastic element includes an elastic sheet connecting the limiting seat, and the elastic sheet has a first inclined surface formed along the extension direction of the base strip of the mother component.
[0025] Preferably, the edge of the protrusion is arc-shaped.
[0026] Preferably, the limiting tooth is a sub-part tooth, and the protrusion is formed on the second inclined surface along the extension direction of the sub-part base.
[0027] Preferably, in the sub-component tooth array, the array of the second limiting members toward the end of the sub-component baseband is the first segment, the array between the second limiting members is the second segment, and the first segment is located on both sides of the second segment.
[0028] In the baseband extension direction of the first segment, the ratio of the limiting length of the inner cavity to the tooth length in the mother component assembly is not less than 1.2, and the interval between the teeth is not greater than 0.5mm.
[0029] Preferably, the teeth of the first segment are evenly arranged, the teeth of the second segment are evenly arranged, and the spacing between the teeth of the first segment is smaller than the spacing between the teeth of the second segment.
[0030] A garment includes the aforementioned slip chain, and further includes a first garment and a second garment, the first garment being connected to the mother component base belt, and the second garment being connected to the daughter component base belt, such that the first garment and the second garment can slide relative to each other between a first position and a second position.
[0031] The advantages and positive effects of this invention are:
[0032] 1. This invention achieves a relative movement of approximately 12cm by cooperating with the slide rail, the mother component teeth, the mother component base belt, the child component teeth, the child component base belt, the first limiting member, and the second limiting member, while ensuring that the total length of the queue formed by the mother component teeth and the queue formed by the child component teeth are basically the same. This satisfies the user's need for a head turning angle of approximately 175°. This technical solution reduces the length difference between the queue of child component teeth and the queue of mother component teeth, facilitating the sewing of the child component queue to the side of the hat. This ensures that the hat has good coverage regardless of the movement state, thus providing good protection against cold and rain and improving the user experience.
[0033] 2. By reducing the length difference between the toothed queues of the child component and the toothed queue of the mother component, this invention allows for a connection length of 43-44cm between the hat and the clothing, even on children's clothing, when the total neckline length is 45cm. This not only makes the overall style look better but also makes the connection between the hat and the clothing more stable and convenient to use, greatly enhancing the user's sense of well-being.
[0034] 3. By setting an elastic element in the first limiting member, the present invention enables the second elastic element to detach from the slide and the limiting base, that is, the sub-component assembly can detach from the parent component assembly. The assembly and disassembly method is simple and effective, which is conducive to improving production efficiency and user operation. Attached Figure Description

[0050] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains.
[0051] The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0052] The embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0053] A sliding chain includes a mother component assembly 100 and a daughter component assembly 200. The mother component assembly 100 includes a mother component base belt 110 and mother component teeth 120 spaced apart from the mother component base belt 110. The mother component teeth 120 form tooth cavity 130 and main sliding portion 140, and the multiple tooth cavity 130 and main sliding portion 140 form a slide rail. The daughter component assembly 200 includes a daughter component base belt 210 and daughter component teeth 220 spaced apart from the daughter component base belt 210. The daughter component teeth 220 are slidably connected to the slide rail. That is, the mother component assembly 100... The 00 and the sub-component 200 are slidably connected. Multiple mother teeth 120 are arranged in a row on the mother base belt 110 to form a slide rail. The mother component 100 also includes the tooth cavity 130 and the main sliding part 140 of the mother tooth 120. Multiple tooth cavities 130 and the main sliding part 140 are matched in sequence to form a slide. The sub-component teeth 220 are arranged in a row on the sub-component base belt 210. One end of the sub-component teeth 220 slides in the slide and the other end is connected to the sub-component base belt 210 to be sewn onto the garment.
[0054] The slide extends along a first direction, which is a left-right direction. The sub-component assembly 200 is movable relative to the parent component assembly 100 between a first position and a second position. The first position is located on one side of the second position in the first direction.
[0055] It also includes a first limiting member 300, which is disposed on the mother component baseband 110 and is disposed at intervals in the mother component tooth 120 queue; that is, the mother component baseband 110 is also connected to the first limiting member 300, and the first limiting member 300 is disposed at intervals in the mother component tooth 120 queue so that the mother component tooth 120 forms a slide, and at the same time, the first limiting member 300 at both ends of the slide restricts the child component tooth 220 to prevent the child component assembly 200 from detaching from the mother component assembly 100.
[0056] The sub-component assembly 200 also includes second limiting members 400, which are disposed on the sub-component baseband 210 and spaced apart in the sub-component tooth 220 queue. First limiting members 300 are located between the second limiting members 400; that is, there is more than one second limiting member 400, which are spaced apart in the sub-component tooth 220 queue. In other words, in a single row of sub-component tooth 220, there are at least two second limiting members 400.
[0057] There are sub-part teeth 220 on both the left and right sides. The second limiting member 400 is connected to the sub-part base belt 210. The sub-part base belt 210 drives the sub-part teeth 220 and the second limiting member 400 to move together.
[0058] When the sub-component assembly 200 is in the first position, the second limiting member 400 at one end of the sub-component baseband 210 abuts against the adjacent first limiting member 300. When the sub-component assembly 200 is in the second position, the second limiting member 400 at the other end of the sub-component baseband 210 abuts against the adjacent first limiting member 300. In other words, under the combined action of the first limiting member 300 and the second limiting member 400, the sub-component assembly 200 slides in the slideway formed by the teeth 120 of the mother component between the two first limiting members 300. When the sub-component assembly 200 slides to the first position, the first limiting member 300 and the second limiting member 400 abut against each other, thereby restricting the sliding of the sub-component assembly 200. In the first position, the sub-component teeth 220 on one side of the second limiting member 400 are in the slideway, and the sub-component teeth 220 on the other side of the second limiting member 400 are outside the slideway. In the second position, the sub-component teeth 220 on one side of the other second limiting member 400 are in the slideway, and the sub-component teeth 220 on the other side are outside the slideway.
[0059] Through the cooperation of the slide, the mother component teeth 120, the mother component base belt 110, the daughter component teeth 220, the daughter component base belt 210, the first limiting member 300, and the second limiting member 400, a relative movement of approximately 12cm is achieved while ensuring that the total length of the queue formed by the mother component teeth 120 and the queue formed by the daughter component teeth 220 is basically the same. This satisfies the user's need for a head turning angle of approximately 175°. This technical solution reduces the length difference between the queue of daughter component teeth 220 and the queue of mother component teeth 120, facilitating the seam between the daughter component queue and the side seam of the hat. This design ensures the hat provides excellent coverage regardless of movement, effectively protecting against both cold and rain, thus enhancing the user experience. Furthermore, by reducing the length difference between the 220 rows of teeth on the child component and the 120 rows of teeth on the mother component, even on children's clothing, with a total neckline length of 45cm, the hat can achieve a connection length of 43-44cm with the garment. This not only makes the overall style more attractive but also ensures a more stable connection between the hat and clothing, making it more convenient to use and significantly improving the user's overall well-being.
[0060] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the mother component assembly 100 includes mother component teeth 120 and two mother component base strips 110. In the left-right direction, multiple mother component teeth 120 are arranged in a single row between the two mother component base strips 110, with a certain gap between every two mother component teeth 120. The edges of the mother component base strips 110 form ribs 111, and the mother component teeth 120 are disposed on the ribs 111. This connection structure has been disclosed in patent application with publication number CN215958629U, and will not be described further here.
[0061] To reiterate, in other embodiments, it may also include a mother component baseband 110, with the mother component teeth 120 connected to the mother component baseband 110.
[0062] like Figure 2 As shown, each female tooth 120 is connected to the female base belt 110 on its front and rear sides. The tooth cavity 130 extends through the female tooth 120 in the left and right direction. The main sliding part 140 extends upward from the tooth cavity 130 and extends through the female tooth 120. The main sliding part 140 has a smaller diameter than the tooth cavity 130 and serves as a limiting function. (Reference) Figure 1 Multiple sequentially arranged female teeth 120, that is, multiple sequentially arranged tooth cavities 130 and main sliding parts 140 form a left-right sliding track so that the female teeth 220 can slide.
[0063] like Figure 3As shown, the sub-component assembly 200 includes sub-component teeth 220 and two sub-component base strips 210. In the left-right direction, multiple sub-component teeth 220 are arranged in a single row opposite each other between the two sub-component base strips 210, with a certain gap between each pair of sub-component teeth 220. The edges of the sub-component base strips 210 form ribs 111, and the sub-component teeth 220 are disposed on the ribs 111, as shown. Figure 4 As shown, the sub-part tooth 220 includes a sub-part base 221, a connecting part 222, and a tooth 223. The tooth 223 slides in the tooth cavity 130. The cross-section of the tooth 223 is larger than the main sliding part 140 to ensure that the sub-part tooth 220 will not directly detach from the parent part tooth 120. The connecting part 222 slides in the main sliding part 140. The sub-part base 221 is connected to the sub-part base belt 210.
[0064] like Figure 1 As shown, the first limiting member 300 is set at both ends of the toothed column 120 of the mother part, for reference. Figure 9 The first limiting member 300 includes a limiting seat 310 and an elastic member 320. Taking the first limiting member 300 and the second limiting member 400 on the left as an example: the right vertical surface of the elastic member 320 is higher than the bottom surface of the slide of the mother tooth 120, the upper surface of the elastic member 320 is not higher than the lower surface of the daughter tooth 220, and the daughter tooth 220 slides directly out from the first limiting member 300a on the left side of the slide, and the lower surface of the second limiting member 400a is lower than the upper surface of the right side of the elastic member 320.
[0065] In the first position, the left side of the second limiting member 400a abuts against the right side of the first limiting member 300a, thereby limiting the sub-component assembly 200 to continue moving to the left. At this time, the sub-component teeth 220 on the left side of the second limiting member 400a are located outside the slide, and the sub-component teeth 220 on the right side of the second limiting member 400a are located inside the slide.
[0066] In the second position, the right side of the second limiting member 400b abuts against the left side of the first limiting member 300b, thereby restricting the mechanical movement of the sub-assembly 200 to the right by the first limiting member 300b. At this time, the right side of the second limiting member 400b is already located outside the slide rail.
[0067] The tooth 220 of the left-side component is located inside the slide.
[0068] In other embodiments, the second limiting member 400 is symmetrically arranged in the toothed queue of the sub-member, such as... Figure 4As shown, the sub-part teeth 220 are arranged in a left-right direction. The second limiting member 400a and the second limiting member 400b are symmetrically arranged in the sub-part teeth 220. In this embodiment, the total length of the parent part teeth 120 is 52cm, the total length of the sub-part teeth 220 is 52cm, the total length of the sub-part teeth 220 to the left of the second limiting member 400a is 7cm, and the total length of the sub-part teeth 220 to the right of the second limiting member 400b is 7cm.
[0069] In other embodiments, the female tooth 120 further includes a female base 121 and a tooth arm 122. The female base 121 is connected to the female base belt 110. The tooth arm 122 includes a base 122a and an arm 122b. The base 122a is connected to one end of the female base 121, and the arm 122b extends to the other end of the female base 121 to cooperate with the female base 121 to form the tooth cavity 130 and the main sliding portion 140. Specifically, as shown... Figure 2 As shown, a toothed arm 122 is provided on the upper side of the mother base 121. The mother base 121 and the toothed arm 122 are integrally formed. The front and rear sides of the mother base 121 are connected to the mother base belt 110. The toothed arm 122 includes a base 122a connected to the mother base 121 and an arm 122b on the upper side of the base 122a. The base 122a is connected to the front end of the mother base 121. The arm 122b is connected to the base 122a and extends to the rear end of the mother base 121. Thus, a tooth cavity 130 and a main sliding part 140 are formed between the arm 122b and the mother base 121.
[0070] In other embodiments, toothed arms 122 are disposed opposite to each other at both ends of the mother base 121, with the arm portion 122b of one toothed arm 122 extending toward the other toothed arm 122. The mother base 121 cooperates with the toothed arms 122 at both ends to form a toothed inner cavity 130, and a main sliding portion 140 is formed in the middle groove opposite the arm portion 122b. Specifically, as shown... Figure 2 As shown, the front arms 122b at both ends of the upper side of the mother base 121 extend to the rear end, and the rear arms 122b extend forward, so that the toothed arms 122 at both ends of the mother base 121 form an enclosing shape, and the mother base 121 is symmetrical in shape. The slots left between the arms 122b are the main sliding parts 140, and the toothed arms 122 and the mother base 121 enclose the toothed inner cavity 130. It should be noted that the plane of the main sliding part 140 toward the toothed inner cavity 130 is at a certain angle to the mother base strip 110, and preferably perpendicular to the plane where the mother base strip 110 is located.
[0071] When the main sliding part 140 is perpendicular to the plane of the base belt 110 in the direction of the toothed inner cavity 130, it can be ensured that after the base belt 110 is sewn onto the garment, the opening of the main sliding part 140 is water-resistant.
[0072] The connection part 222 is horizontal. Based on existing technology, such as the Chinese invention patent (publication number: CN114468483A) which discloses a sliding chain, the connection part 222 is used to carry the traditional sliding chain, thus solving the technical problem of high friction at the connection position of the traditional main sliding part 140. Therefore, the cooperation between the connection part 222 and the main sliding part 140 can achieve a good smoothing effect. However, in this embodiment, the sub-component assembly 200 is connected to the hat. After the person puts on the hat, the sub-component assembly 200 (specifically, the teeth 223 of the sub-component teeth 220) will give the mother tooth 120 a direction towards the hat. (Upward force when worn) Therefore, the teeth 223 will rub against the main slide 140 and the side of the mother tooth 120 (including the side wall of the main slide 140). However, in this technical solution, when the daughter tooth 220 is subjected to an upward force, it cooperates with the main slide 140 through the connecting part 222, and the teeth 223 will not rub against the main slide 140. This reduces the friction between the teeth 223 and the mother tooth 120 on the side wall of the main slide 140. Therefore, only the teeth 223 and the side of the mother tooth 120 (due to the distance between the mother teeth 120) rub against each other, thereby further improving the smoothness of the zipper.
[0073] The first limiting member 300 includes a limiting seat 310, which is connected to the base belt 110 of the mother component. The limiting seat 310 is also connected to an elastic member 320, which is located at both ends of the slide. That is, the limiting seat 310 is connected to the elastic member 320, which is located at both ends of the slide formed by the teeth 120 of the mother component. The elastic member 320 abuts against the second limiting member 400, thereby limiting the sub-component assembly 200.
[0074] The second limiting member 400 includes a limiting tooth 410 and a protrusion 420. The limiting tooth 410 is connected to the sub-component base belt 210, and the protrusion 420 is formed on the limiting tooth 410. That is, the limiting tooth 410 of the second limiting member 400 and the sub-component tooth 220 are connected in a row on the sub-component base belt 210. One end of the limiting tooth 410 forms a protrusion 420, so that one end of the limiting tooth 410 protrudes out of the sub-component tooth 220. The protrusion 420 abuts against the elastic member 320, thereby limiting the sub-component assembly 200.
[0075] In this configuration, the protrusion 420 at one end of the sub-component base strip 210 abuts against one end of the elastic member 320. When the second limiting member 400 is subjected to a force greater than the deformation of the elastic member 320 along the direction of the mother component base strip 110, the elastic member 320 deforms, causing the second limiting member 400 to disengage from the elastic member 320 into the slide rail. In other words, the elastic member 320 blocks both ends of the slide rail. In the first or second position, the protrusion 420 of the second limiting member 400 abuts against the elastic member 320, preventing the sub-component assembly from disengaging.
[0076] 200 is detached from the parent component assembly 100. However, the elastic element 320 itself has the ability to deform and will deform when subjected to a certain stress. That is, when the second limiting element 400 applies a force to the elastic element 320 that exceeds its own deformation, the limiting tooth 410 can detach from the slide and the limiting base.
[0077] By setting an elastic element 320 in the first limiting member 300, the second elastic element 320 can be disengaged from the slide and the limiting base, that is, the sub-component 200 can be disengaged from the mother component 100. The assembly and disassembly method is simple and effective, which is conducive to improving production efficiency and is also convenient for users to operate.
[0078] In other embodiments, the first limiting member 300 includes a limiting seat 310 connected to the mother component base belt 110. The limiting seat 310 forms a limiting inner cavity 330 and a secondary sliding portion 340. The elastic member 320 is located within the limiting inner cavity 330. The sub-component tooth 220 includes a sub-component base 221, a connecting portion 222, and a tooth 223. The sub-component base 221 is connected to the sub-component base belt 210. The connecting portion 222 is adapted to the main sliding portion 140 and the secondary sliding portion 340. The tooth 223 is adapted to the tooth inner cavity 130 and the limiting inner cavity 330, so that the tooth 223 can slide in the tooth inner cavity 130 and the limiting inner cavity 330, and the connecting portion 222 can slide in the main sliding portion 140 and the secondary sliding portion 340.
[0079] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the upper and lower ends of the limiting seat 310 are connected to the base belt 110 of the mother component, and are arranged in a row with the teeth 120 of the mother component. A certain distance is left between the limiting seat 310 and the adjacent teeth 120 of the mother component, such as... Figure 6 As shown, a limiting cavity 330 is formed in the limiting seat 310 along the left-right direction. The limiting cavity 330 extends through the limiting seat 310 in the left-right direction and extends upward through the limiting seat 310 to form a secondary sliding part 340 extending in the left-right direction. The diameter of the limiting cavity 330 is larger than the diameter of the secondary sliding part 340 to prevent the tooth 223 from disengaging from the secondary sliding part 340. An elastic element 320 is disposed inside the limiting seat 310 and connected to the limiting seat 310. The limiting cavity 330 is divided into an upper cavity 331 and a lower cavity 332 by the sex component 320. The upper cavity 331 is connected to the secondary slide 340. The sub-component base 221 is connected to the sub-component base belt 210 on both sides, which makes the overall structure of the slide chain more stable. The connecting part 222 slides out from the main slide 140 and enters the secondary slide 340. The teeth 223 of the sub-component teeth 220 slide out from the slide rail and enter the limiting cavity 330, and then disengage from the limiting base from the limiting cavity 330.
[0080] In other embodiments, the elastic element 320 includes an elastic sheet 321 that connects to the limiting seat 310, and the elastic sheet 321 has a first inclined surface 322 formed along the extension direction of the base strip 110 of the mother component.
[0081] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the elastic element 320 includes an elastic sheet 321, which is disposed within the limiting cavity 330. The elastic sheet 321 is integrally formed with the limiting seat 310. The elastic sheet 321 divides the limiting cavity 330 into an upper cavity 331 and a lower cavity 332, as shown. Figure 7 As shown, the limiting seat 310 extends in the left-right direction, and the elastic piece 321 extends in the left-right direction. The right end of the elastic piece 321 is located at the right end of the limiting seat 310. The right end of the limiting seat 310 protrudes to the right to form a receiving part 350, so as to reduce the distance between the elastic piece 321 and the teeth 120 of the right side female part. Figure 8 As shown, the upper surface of the elastic sheet 321 forms a first inclined surface 322 that increases in size from left to right. The first inclined surface 322 facilitates the entry of the limiting tooth 410 into the slide, and also facilitates the rapid sliding of the limiting tooth 410 out of the limiting cavity 330 after the elastic element 320 is deformed; as shown Figure 8 As shown, the elastic piece 321 extends in the left and right directions. The left end of the elastic piece 321 is 1 / 4 to 1 / 3 of the distance from the left side of the limiting seat 310. The right vertical surface of the elastic piece 321 is thicker. The upper side of the right end of the elastic piece 321 is higher than the bottom surface of the tooth cavity 130, and the lower side of the right end of the elastic piece 321 is lower than the bottom surface of the tooth cavity 130.
[0082] The edge of the protrusion 420 is rounded. That is, the surface of the protrusion 420 that contacts the tooth cavity 130 is a rounded surface, thereby reducing friction. Specifically, as shown... Figure 3 As shown, the four periphery of the protrusion 420 has rounded chamfers, and similarly, the four periphery of the tooth 223 of the sub-part tooth 220 has rounded chamfers, as shown. Figure 4 As shown, the front and rear edge corners of the protrusion 420 are rounded, and the front and rear edge corners of the tooth 223 of the sub-part tooth 220 are also rounded.
[0083] In other embodiments, the limiting tooth 410 is a sub-tooth 220, and the second limiting member 400 is a sub-tooth 220 with a protrusion 420 formed on one side. That is, in the sub-tooth 220 row, the protrusion 420 is formed on the spaced sub-tooths 220. Specifically, as shown in... Figure 4 As shown, the limiting tooth 410 includes a sub-component base 221, a connecting portion 222, and a tooth portion 223, and its shape and position correspond to the sub-component tooth 220 array. A protrusion 420 is formed on the upper side of the tooth portion 223 of the limiting tooth 410, as shown in the reference diagram. Figure 5The cross-sectional area of the tooth 223 of the sub-part tooth 220 decreases from bottom to top, and the four sides are chamfered. The upper side of the tooth 223 of the limiting tooth 410 protrudes upward to form a protrusion 420, and any surface of the protrusion 420 is an arc surface.
[0084] In other embodiments, the protrusion 420 is formed on the side of the tooth 223 facing away from the main slide portion 140, as shown in the reference. Figure 10 The main sliding portion 140 of the female tooth 120 faces to the right, and a protrusion 420 is formed on the left side of the tooth 223. The cross-section of the protrusion 420 gradually decreases in an arc shape from the tooth 223 to the left, so the left side of the protrusion 420 is linearly connected to the left side of the tooth cavity 130.
[0085] The side surface is flat and is gap-connected to the plane of the elastic sheet 321; as shown Figure 10 As shown, the tooth cavity 130 includes a first cavity 131 and a second cavity 132. The first cavity 131 communicates with the main sliding part 140. The upper and lower side walls of the first cavity 131 are arc-shaped and gradually change. The second cavity 132 is flared and gradually changes from left to right and connects with the first cavity 131. This makes the side of the sub-part tooth 220 linearly connected with the wall of the first cavity 131, and the side of the protrusion 420 linearly connected with the wall of the second cavity 132.
[0086] The limiting tooth 410 is a sub-part tooth 220, and the protrusion 420 is formed on the second inclined surface 421 along the extension direction of the sub-part base strip 210. Specifically, as shown... Figure 4 As shown, the limiting teeth 410 are arranged in the sub-part teeth 220 array. The upper surface of the limiting teeth 410 forms a second inclined surface 421. The second inclined surface 421 gradually decreases from the end of the sub-part base belt 210 to the middle position of the sub-part base belt 210. The first inclined surface 322 cooperates with the second inclined surface 421, so that the sub-part base belt 210 can be easily installed into the mother base belt 110. When the sub-part base belt 210 is separated from the mother base belt 110, the required stress is the same as that without the inclined surface, thereby improving the user experience.
[0087] In other embodiments, in the sub-component tooth 220 array, the array of the second limiting member 400 towards the sub-component baseband 210 segment is designated as the first segment 230, and the array between the second limiting members 400 is designated as the second segment 240; specifically, as shown... Figure 4 As shown, the tooth 220 queue on the left side of the second limiting member 400a is the first segment 230a, the tooth 220 queue on the right side of the second limiting member 400b is the first segment 230b, and the tooth 220 queue between the two second limiting members 400 is the second segment 240.
[0088] In the baseband extension direction of the first segment 230, the ratio of the limiting length of the limiting cavity 330 to the length of the tooth 223 in the mother component assembly 100 is not less than 1.2, and the interval between the teeth 223 is not greater than 0.5 mm. Figure 8 As shown, the limiting wall 311 extending in the left-right direction of the limiting tooth 410 has the same length as the limiting seat 310 extending in the left-right direction, as... Figure 4 As shown, the tooth 223 extends in the left and right direction. The ratio of the length of the limiting wall 311 of the limiting seat 310 to the length of the tooth 223 extending in the left and right direction is 1.2. The interval between any two adjacent sub-piece teeth 220 is 0.5 mm. This proportional matching ensures that when the sub-piece teeth 220 of the first section 230 slide into the slideway, the limiting seat 310 will not enter the gap between adjacent sub-piece teeth 220, thereby ensuring smoothness.
[0089] In other embodiments, the length of the limiting wall 311 of the limiting seat 310 is equal to the length of the tooth 223 on the left.
[0090] The ratio of the rightward extension length is 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, and the interval between any two adjacent sub-part teeth 220 teeth 223 is 0.5mm, 0.45mm, 0.4mm, 0.35mm, 0.3mm, 0.25mm, 0.2mm. Each embodiment can be any combination of the above values.
[0091] In other embodiments, the ratio of the length of the limiting wall 311 of the limiting seat 310 to the length of the tooth 223 extending in the left and right directions is 1.5, and the interval between any two adjacent teeth 220 of the sub-parts is 0.3 mm.
[0092] In the first section 230, the teeth 220 of the sub-components are evenly arranged, and in the second section 240, the teeth 220 of the sub-components are evenly arranged. The spacing between the teeth 220 of the sub-components in the first section 230 is smaller than the spacing between the teeth 220 of the sub-components in the second section 240. In other words, the teeth 220 of the sub-components in the first section 230 are installed at equal intervals on the sub-component base belt 210, and the teeth 220 of the sub-components in the second section 240 are installed at equal intervals on the sub-component base belt 210. The distance between the teeth 220 of the sub-components in the first section 230 is smaller than the distance between adjacent teeth 220 of the sub-components in the second section 240. The distance between the teeth 220 of the sub-components in the second section 240 is 0.6mm, 0.7mm, 0.8mm, 0.9mm, 1.0mm, 1.1mm, 1.2mm, 1.3mm, and 1.4mm. By setting the large spacing in the second section 240, the sub-component assembly 200 can be bent to a greater extent in the second section 240 position, making it easier to stack and store.
[0093] It is particularly important to note that in this technical solution, the combination of the limiting component, the mother tooth 120 and the mother base belt 110, and the cooperation of the child base belt 210, the limiting tooth 410 and the child tooth 220 solves an unexpected problem. After the zipper is sewn onto the clothing, when it is necessary to separate the clothes and the hat, a large force needs to be applied to the child base belt 210 along the direction of the zipper. However, in production, the elastic potential energy of the limiting component is generally at the same level. Therefore, in children's clothing, children need to exert a lot of force to separate the child component 200 and the mother component 100. Moreover, if you are not careful, when pulling the hat, it is easy to cause the hat fabric to tear at the sewn position or the child base belt 210 / mother base belt 110 to come undone.
[0094] This technical solution, through structural cooperation, enables the mother component 100 and the daughter component 200 to form a shape such that, when the clothing and hat are in the combined position, they are in the same position. Figure 11 The structural shape, specifically, in the first position, applies forces in opposite directions (A and B directions after bending) to the mother component 100 and the daughter component 200. Due to the action of the limiting teeth 410 and the limiting base, the mother component 100 and the daughter component 200 will form... Figure 11 In this case, the upper end of the sub-component base 210 only needs to be bent in the C direction. Under the combined restraint of the sub-component base 221 and the sub-component base 210, the limiting tooth 410 can easily break through the restriction of the limiting base and pop out easily. Therefore, it is suitable for users of any age, and there is no risk of damaging clothes or hats during the assembly and disassembly process.
[0095] Similarly, during the assembly of the sub-component 200 into the parent component 100, based on the opposing forces (in the bending guard directions D and E) between the sub-component 200 and the parent component 100, under the action of the limiting base, the limiting teeth 410, and the sub-component baseband 210, the parent component 100 and the sub-component 200 will form... Figure 12 The shape of the sub-component baseband 210 will be as follows: Figure 12 As shown above, at this time, only one force in the F direction is needed based on the sub-part teeth 220 at the upper end of the sub-part baseband 210, and the limiting teeth 410 can easily enter the limiting seat 310, which is simple and labor-saving.
[0096] A garment includes a sliding chain, a first garment, and a second garment. The first garment is connected to a mother base belt 110, and the second garment is connected to a daughter base belt 210, allowing the first and second garments to slide relative to each other between a first position and a second position. Specifically, the garment is connected to the mother base belt 110, and the hat is connected to the daughter base belt 210, as shown below. Figure 10 As shown, the parent component 100 and the child component 200 are on the same plane, allowing the clothes and hat to slide relative to each other.
[0097] It should be emphasized that the embodiments described in this invention are illustrative and not limiting. Therefore, this invention is not limited to the embodiments described in the specific implementation. Any other implementation methods derived by those skilled in the art based on the technical solution of this invention, such as clothing sewing sub-components and hat sewing mother-components, only require changing some features of the mother-component and sub-component in this technical solution and adding conventional technical means to still achieve similar technical effects. Such technical solutions also fall within the scope of protection of this invention.
