Figure 1The paper outer side of the paper, preferably, in the present embodiment, the nylon chain array 2 with the same side of the front side is colored by electroplating or the like, and the color of the colored nylon chain array 2 region is different from the color of the chain belt 1.

[0031] When the pair of nylon chain arrays 2 are in the engaged state, the width d1 of the gap between the pair of chain belts 1 is set to 25.1% to 35.1% of the width d2 when the pair of nylon chain arrays 2 are in the engaged state, and the color of the nylon chain array 2 can be visually recognized from the front side of the zipper through the gap.

[0032] The puller 3 is a back puller for engaging / disengaging the pair of nylon chain arrays 2, and the side wing plate opposite to the back side is a first wing plate 31, and the side wing plate opposite to the back side is a second wing plate 32, and the second wing plate 32 is provided with a pull tab mounting portion 7 for mounting a pull tab.

[0033] The first wing plate 31 and the second wing plate 32 are both axisymmetric structures, and the first wing plate 31 and the second wing plate 32 are arranged vertically and parallel to each other, and the second wing plate 32 and the first wing plate 31 are connected by a connecting column 33, and the connecting column 33 is also an axisymmetric structure. The connecting position of the connecting column 33 and the first wing plate 31 is located at the central position of the first wing plate 31 close to its front end, and the connecting position of the connecting column 33 and the second wing plate 32 is located at the central position of the second wing plate 32 close to its front end, and the end of the puller 3 where the connecting column 33 is located is the front end, and the end of the puller 3 opposite to the front end is the rear end, and the symmetry axes of the first wing plate 31 and the second wing plate 32 are located in the same vertical plane as the connecting column 33.

[0034] The first left side wall 321 and the first right side wall 322 are arranged symmetrically on both sides of the second wing plate 32 close to its rear end, the first left side wall 321 comprises a first curved section and a first straight section arranged adjacent to each other, the first curved section and the first straight section intersect at a first connecting point 323, and the end of the first curved section close to the connecting column 33 is a first starting point 325, the first right side wall 322 comprises a second curved section and a second straight section arranged adjacent to each other, the second curved section and the second straight section intersect at a second connecting point 324, and the end of the second curved section close to the connecting column 33 is a second starting point 326.

[0035] The second left side wall 311 and the second right side wall 312 are arranged on both sides of the first wing plate 31 close to the tail thereof, the thickness of the second left side wall 311 is greater than the thickness of the first left side wall 321, and the thickness of the second right side wall 312 is greater than the thickness of the first right side wall 322, and the direction of the above-mentioned thickness is perpendicular to the first wing plate and the second wing plate 32.

[0036] The second wing plate 32 is provided with a first tooth rib 5 for extruding the nylon tooth array 2, the first tooth rib 5 is arranged along the length direction of the puller 3, the first tooth rib 5 is continuously arranged along the length direction, the first tooth rib 5 includes a first rib part 51 and a second rib part 52, the first rib part 51 and the second rib part 52 can be formed as an integral structure, or can be independently arranged, in the embodiment, the first rib part 51 and the second rib part 52 are an integral structure.

[0037] The first rib part 51 is similar to the corresponding structure of the conventional back puller, and is specifically arranged as follows: the front end of the first rib part 51 is connected with the rear side of the connecting column 33, the rear side of the connecting column 33 refers to the curved surface of the connecting column 33 facing the rear end of the puller 3, one side of the first rib part 51 is close to the center line of the second wing plate 32, and the other side of the first rib part 51 is respectively a first arc surface 511, a first straight surface 512 and a second arc surface 513 from front to back, the width of the first rib part 51 where the first arc surface 511 and the second arc surface 513 are respectively located gradually decreases along the front-rear direction, and the width of the first rib part 52 where the first straight surface 512 is located remains unchanged along the front-rear direction.

[0038] The front end of the second rib part 52 can be arranged in the area between the straight line connecting the first starting point 325 and the second starting point 326 to the rear side of the connecting column 33 according to actual needs, the closer the front end of the second rib part 52 is to the rear side of the connecting column 33, the better the effect of preventing the tooth from turning over can be achieved, in the embodiment, the front end of the second rib part 52 is connected with the rear side of the connecting column 33, one side of the second rib part 52 is close to the center line of the second wing plate 32, and the other side of the second rib part 52 is respectively a third arc surface 521, a second straight surface 522, a fourth arc surface 523, a third straight surface 524 and a fifth arc surface 525 from front to back, the width of the second rib part 52 where the third arc surface 521, the fourth arc surface 523 and the fifth arc surface 525 are respectively located gradually decreases along the front-rear direction, and the width of the second rib part 52 where the second straight surface 522 and the third straight surface 524 are located remains unchanged along the front-rear direction.

[0039] The ratio of the width of the first rib part 51 to the width of the second rib part 52 in the vertical section of the puller 3 in the same width direction is in the range of 0.5-2, wherein the width of the first rib part 51 is slightly larger than the size of the corresponding structure of the conventional back puller, and the second rib part 52 arranged in the range can ensure sufficient contact area with the nylon tooth array 2, and achieve better effect of preventing the tooth from turning over.

[0040] The first tooth rib 5 has a first width tapering portion 53, a straight portion 54 and a second width tapering portion 55 from front to back. Specifically, the first width tapering portion 53 is composed of the first rib portion 51 where the first arc surface 511 is located, the second rib portion 52 where the third arc surface 521 is located and the second straight surface 522 is located. The straight portion 54 is composed of the first rib portion 51 where the first straight surface 512 is located and the second rib portion 52 where the third straight surface 524 is located. The second width tapering portion 55 is composed of the first rib portion 51 where the second arc surface 513 is located and the second rib portion 52 where the fifth arc surface 525 is located.

[0041] The side hook lock pin hole 4 and the first width tapering portion 53 completely overlap in the horizontal cross section. Specifically, the side hook lock pin hole 4 is located between the two width direction boundaries of the first width tapering portion 53, i.e. between the first arc surface 511 and the second straight surface 522. The side hook lock pin hole 4 is square, and the hole wall in the length direction of the side hook lock pin hole 4 is parallel to the second straight surface. Since the side hook lock pin hole 4 is a through structure from top to bottom, it will reduce the effect of extruding the nylon chain teeth to a certain extent. Therefore, the second straight surface 522 with a certain distance from the hook lock pin hole 4 is arranged at the position of the second rib portion 52 corresponding to the side hook lock pin hole 4, so as to ensure that the area of the first tooth rib 5 where the side hook lock pin hole 4 is arranged has sufficient effective tooth pressing area. The effective tooth pressing area refers to the area that is in frictional contact with the nylon chain tooth row 2 when the puller is pulled together. The structure that the side hook lock pin hole 4 is arranged between the two width direction boundaries of the first width tapering portion 53 is more convenient for manufacturing and processing the puller 3.

[0042] The width d3 of the straight portion 54 is 40% to 100% of the width d1 of the gap between the pair of chain belts 1. The straight portion 54 acts on the area where the nylon chain tooth row 2 is about to close. The straight portion arranged in this size range can better suppress the turnover of the nylon chain tooth row 2.

[0043] The first width tapering portion 53 can cooperate with each other when the puller slides to make the two nylon chain tooth rows 2 close to each other. The straight portion 54 presses the two nylon chain tooth rows 2 that have been engaged in the inner cavity of the puller 3. The first width tapering portion 53 gradually reduces the acting area with the nylon chain tooth row 2 by gradually reducing the width from front to back, thereby gradually reducing the friction between the first width tapering portion 53 and the nylon chain tooth row 2, and finally making the pulling more smooth and labor-saving.

[0044] The tail end of the second width tapering portion 55 does not exceed the line between the first connecting point 323 and the second connecting point 324. This setting aims to reduce the length of the first tooth rib 5 and reduce the area of interaction with the nylon chain tooth row 2 when the puller 3 is pulled together, so as to make the pulling of the puller 3 more smooth.

[0045] The first wing plate 31 is provided with a second tooth 6 for cooperating with the first tooth 5. Preferably, the length of the first tooth 5 is greater than the length of the second tooth 6. This design can achieve a better effect of pressing the teeth to suppress flipping and tooth breakage. The structure of the second tooth 6 is the same as the corresponding structure set on the conventional back pull head. The second tooth 6 is set along the length direction of the pull head 3. The front end of the second tooth 6 is located on the rear side of the connecting post 33 and is connected to the rear side of the connecting post 33. The rear side of the second tooth 6 is located at the tail of the first wing plate 31. The second tooth 6 is a long strip with a roughly fixed width, that is, the width of the second tooth 6 is roughly the same at different positions in the length direction. The center line of the second tooth 6 is on the same plane as the center line of the connecting post 33. The second tooth 6 has a left-right symmetrical structure with its center line as the axis of symmetry.

[0046] By setting the width of the gap between a pair of chain straps 1 when a pair of nylon chain teeth 2 are in the meshing state to 25.1% to 35.1% of the width of a pair of nylon chain teeth in the meshing state, the gap width is increased. A second rib 5 is provided in the inner cavity of the zipper head 3 where deflection space may be formed, so as to suppress the deflection of the nylon chain teeth, ensure good visual effect and prevent tooth breakage.

[0047] Implementation Method Two, This Implementation Method

[0048] like Figure 6 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that: this embodiment does not have a side hook locking pin hole. The first rib 51 and the first rib 52 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right along the center line of the second wing plate 32 and are independently arranged. Since there is no side hook locking pin hole and the first rib 51 and the first rib 52 are symmetrically designed, the resistance of the pull head is small and the force is even on the left and right when pulling and closing, so the pulling and closing is smoother.

[0049] The embodiments and accompanying drawings are not intended to limit the product form and style of the present invention. Any appropriate changes or modifications made by those skilled in the art should be considered as not departing from the patent scope of the present invention.
