Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of zippers, in particular to a positioning zipper and clothing. Background Art

[0002] Positioning zippers refer to the presence of several positioning areas at the puller positioning point when the zipper slides. They are used in scenarios where the zipper needs to have a positioning function. For current ordinary zippers, there are several inconveniences when using them:

[0003] 1. When the zipper is pulled to the top, there is no relevant reminder function, so too much force may be used, and the chain teeth may get stuck on the neck skin and cause damage to the body.

[0004] 2. For special users, such as troops, students, etc., there are standard dress height requirements for specific uniforms, such as the attached Figure 1 As shown, the pull head is often required to be positioned in the positioning area in order to achieve the standard and uniform requirements of dressing. However, the existing ordinary zipper has no positioning force point on the pull head, which is difficult to achieve the uniform standard and affects the overall effect.

[0005] In order to realize the positioning function of the zipper, the prior art often modifies the tooth structure in the positioning area so that the slider can be positioned with the teeth of a specific structure when it moves to the positioning area. For example: Patent CN201180069547.1 discloses a zipper and a slider with a simple locking mechanism, which realizes the positioning reminder function of the positioning area of ​​the zipper by extending the thickness of the teeth in the positioning area and increasing the force between the teeth and the upper and lower side walls of the slider's inner cavity. Patent CN201410642271.7 discloses a zipper, which realizes the positioning reminder function of the positioning area of ​​the zipper by extending the outer end length of the teeth in the positioning area and increasing the force between the teeth and the left and right side walls of the slider's inner cavity.

[0006] However, this form of prior art mainly produces a stop positioning effect by contacting the inner wall of the slider with the extended or protruding part of the teeth, which often causes greater wear. With repeated use of the zipper, when it is worn to a certain extent, the stop positioning function may be lost, resulting in a shorter normal service life of the positioning zipper, which is not conducive to improving the long-term durability of the zipper positioning function.

[0007] At the same time, the prior art sets teeth of specific structures in the positioning area, which is often for teeth of plastic materials, so as to facilitate the production and processing of teeth of specific structures, but this is often difficult to apply to metal zippers (teeth), and it is difficult to improve the versatility and universality of this form. In addition, this form often requires at least two teeth of different structures to be set on a zipper, which increases the complexity of the zipper structure, especially the structural complexity of the teeth, which is a relatively small part, and correspondingly increases the difficulty of zipper production and assembly. Utility Model Content

[0008] In view of this, the utility model aims to provide a positioning zipper and clothing to solve the problems of the positioning zipper in the prior art, such as poor long-term durability, poor versatility and relatively complex structure.

[0009] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution of the utility model is implemented as follows:

[0010] A positioning zipper comprises a cloth tape and teeth, wherein one side of the cloth tape has a rib, and the teeth are connected to the rib. The positioning zipper is provided with a conventional area and a positioning area. In the positioning area, a thickened portion or a hardened portion is provided at least at the cloth tape between any two adjacent teeth, and / or a thickened portion or a hardened portion is provided at least at the rib between any two adjacent teeth.

[0011] Furthermore, in the positioning area, a thickened portion or a hardened portion is provided between the teeth and the cloth tape, and / or a thickened portion or a hardened portion is provided between the teeth and the belt ribs.

[0012] Furthermore, in the entire positioning area, the cloth belt and the belt reinforcement are provided with thickened parts or hardened parts.

[0013] Furthermore, the thickened portion includes at least any one of a coating, a thin plate, and a thickened rib.

[0014] Furthermore, the thickness of the coating is 5%-15% of the thickness of the cloth tape.

[0015] Furthermore, in the positioning area, the ribs are configured as thickened ribs; and the diameter of the thickened ribs is greater than the diameter of the ribs located in the conventional area.

[0016] Furthermore, the diameter of the thickened rib is 1.05-1.15 times the diameter of the rib in the conventional area.

[0017] Furthermore, the thin plate member includes a metal sheet or a plastic sheet, and the thin plate member is connected to a cloth belt and / or a rib.

[0018] Furthermore, the hardened portion includes a hardener that penetrates into the fabric of the cloth tape and / or the fabric of the ribs to increase the hardness of the cloth tape and / or the ribs.

[0019] A garment is provided with the positioning zipper.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the positioning zipper and clothing described in the utility model have the following advantages:

[0021] Compared with the existing positioning zippers, the positioning zipper and clothing described in the utility model do not need to make any structural changes to the teeth and the slider, and only need to set a thickened portion or a hardened portion on the cloth tape and / or the ribs. By changing the thickness or hardness of the cloth tape and the ribs, the softness of the cloth in the positioning area is reduced, so as to increase the zipper closing value in the positioning area, and realize the jamming and positioning functions of the zipper in the positioning area; as the zipper closing value changes from the conventional area to the positioning area, it will also bring a different feel to the user, reminding the user that the zipper has been pulled into place.

[0022] At the same time, the present application does not make any structural changes to the teeth and the pull head. On the one hand, it will not cause excessive wear between the pull head and the teeth, so that the positioning zipper of the present application can maintain a good positioning function for a long time, which is beneficial to improve its normal service life and long-term durability. On the other hand, the present application can improve any conventional zipper, and can be used not only for zippers with plastic teeth, but also for zippers with metal teeth, which improves the versatility and universality of the positioning zipper of the present application.

[0023] At the same time, the thickened portion or hardened portion can be used to pre-process the fabric in large quantities during the production process of the fabric tape (including the ribs), without the need to modify the structure of smaller components such as teeth and pull heads, thereby reducing the complexity of the zipper structure and helping to reduce the difficulty of zipper production and assembly.

[0036] The following will use the terms commonly used by those skilled in the art to convey the essence of their work to other technical personnel in the art to describe the utility model concepts of the present disclosure. However, these utility model concepts can be embodied in many different forms and should not be considered as limited to the embodiments described herein.

[0037] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other. Figure 1 , the present application divides it into a conventional area and a positioning area, wherein the conventional area can be regarded as a zipper segment without a positioning function, and the positioning area is a zipper segment that needs to provide a positioning function.

[0038] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments.

[0039] In order to realize the positioning function of the zipper, the prior art often modifies the tooth structure at the positioning area so that the pull head can be positioned with the tooth of a specific structure when it moves to the positioning area. However, this form in the prior art mainly produces a stuck positioning effect by contacting the inner wall of the pull head with the extended or protruding part of the tooth, which often causes greater wear. With the repeated use of the zipper, when it is worn to a certain extent, it may lose the stuck positioning function, resulting in a short normal service life of the positioning zipper, which is not conducive to improving the long-term durability of the zipper positioning function. At the same time, the prior art sets teeth of a specific structure in the positioning area, which is often for teeth of plastic materials, so as to facilitate the production and processing of teeth of a specific structure, which is often difficult to apply to metal zippers (teeth), and it is difficult to improve the versatility and universality of this form. In addition, this form often requires at least two teeth of different structures to be set on a zipper, which increases the complexity of the zipper structure, especially the structural complexity of the teeth, which is a small part, and correspondingly increases the difficulty of production and assembly of the zipper.

[0040] In order to solve the problems of long-term durability, poor versatility and complex structure of the positioning zipper, this embodiment proposes a positioning zipper, which does not require any structural changes to the teeth and the slider, and can be improved based on any conventional zipper without positioning function. Figure 2 As shown, the conventional zipper includes a tape 1 and teeth 3. One side of the tape 1 has a rib 2. The teeth 3 are connected to the rib 2, and a plurality of teeth 3 are often arranged along the rib 2 at a certain interval and are fixedly connected to the rib 2 of the tape 1. The positioning zipper of the present application also has this conventional zipper structure, and is improved on the basis of this conventional zipper structure to realize the positioning function of the zipper.

[0041] Specifically, as attached Figure 3-9 As shown, the positioning zipper includes a conventional area and a positioning area, in which a thickened portion or a hardened portion is provided at least on the fabric tape 1 between any two adjacent teeth 3, and / or a thickened portion or a hardened portion is provided at least on the rib 2 between any two adjacent teeth 3.

[0042] Compared with the existing positioning zippers, the present application does not require any structural changes to the teeth and the slider, but only provides a thickened portion or a hardened portion to the cloth tape 1 and / or the rib 2. By changing the thickness or hardness of the cloth tape 1 and the rib 2, the softness of the fabric in the positioning area is reduced, so as to increase the zipper closing value in the positioning area and realize the jamming and positioning function of the zipper in the positioning area. As the zipper closing value changes from the conventional area to the positioning area, it will also bring a different feel to the user, reminding the user that the zipper has been pulled into place.

[0043] At the same time, the present application does not make any structural changes to the teeth and the pull head. On the one hand, it will not cause excessive wear between the pull head and the teeth, so that the positioning zipper of the present application can maintain a good positioning function for a long time, which is beneficial to improve its normal service life and long-term durability. On the other hand, the present application can improve any conventional zipper, and can be used not only for zippers with plastic teeth, but also for zippers with metal teeth, which improves the versatility and universality of the positioning zipper of the present application.

[0044] At the same time, the thickened portion or hardened portion can be used to pre-process the fabric in large quantities during the production process of the fabric tape 1 (including the ribs 2), without the need to modify the structure of smaller components such as teeth and sliders, thereby reducing the complexity of the zipper structure and helping to reduce the difficulty of zipper production and assembly.

[0045] In addition, the positioning zipper can be provided with a plurality of positioning areas to realize a multi-point reminder function, which also helps to meet the requirements of different positioning positions of the same clothing.

[0046] Since the thickening or hardening portion is provided on the fabric between two adjacent teeth 3, a discontinuous thickening or hardening portion will be formed; in order to further reduce the complexity of the structure, in the positioning area, a thickening or hardening portion is provided between the teeth 3 and the cloth tape 1, and / or a thickening or hardening portion is provided between the teeth 3 and the belt rib 2. That is, in addition to providing the thickening or hardening portion on the fabric between two adjacent teeth 3, the present application also provides a continuous thickening or hardening portion on the fabric near the assembly area of ​​the teeth 3 in the positioning area, that is, the cloth tape 1 and / or the belt rib 2 are directly provided with a continuous thickening or hardening portion, and then the teeth 3 are assembled, which is not only conducive to simplifying the setting form of the thickening or hardening portion, making the zipper structure simpler, but also convenient for actual production, processing and assembly.

[0047] Preferably, in the entire positioning area, the cloth tape 1 and the belt rib 2 are both provided with a thickened portion or a hardened portion, which includes not only the area between two adjacent teeth 3, but also the assembly position between the teeth 3 and the cloth tape 1 and the belt rib 2, and further includes the area of ​​the cloth tape 1 that is not assembled with or in contact with the teeth 3, so that the thickened portion or the hardened portion is continuously arranged in a larger area, which is conducive to further simplifying the setting form of the thickened portion or the hardened portion, making the zipper structure simpler, and facilitating actual production, processing and assembly.

[0048] Among them, the thickened part includes at least any one of a coating 4, a thin plate part 7, and a thickened rib 5; wherein, it should be noted that the thickened rib 5 can be understood as: relative to the diameter of the rib 2 in the conventional area, the thickened rib 5 is a rib 2 with an increased diameter; that is, the diameter of the thickened rib 5 is larger than the diameter of the rib 2 in the conventional area.

[0049] As for the hardened part, the hardened part includes a hardened substance that penetrates into the fabric of the cloth tape 1 and / or the fabric of the ribs 2, so that the relevant dimensions of the cloth tape 1 and the ribs 2 do not change too much, but the cloth tape 1 and the ribs 2 become hard. Preferably, the hardened substance is glue, which is applied and penetrated into the fabric to solidify, thereby forming the hardened part.

[0050] Regarding the specific arrangement of the thickened portion or the hardened portion, the present application proposes the following seven implementation forms, but the present application is not limited to these seven forms.

[0051] Form 1

[0052] As attached Figure 3 As shown, in the positioning area, a thickened portion is provided at the fabric tape 1 and / or the belt rib 2 between any two adjacent teeth 3 , and the thickened portion is a coating 4 .

[0053] By providing a coating on the fabric surface between any two adjacent teeth 3, the thickness of the fabric tape 1 and / or the rib 2 is increased, thereby reducing the softness of the fabric in the positioning area. During the engagement of the zipper teeth, the zipper closing value in the positioning area is increased, thereby realizing the jamming and positioning functions of the zipper in the positioning area.

[0054] Preferably, the fabric tape 1 and the ribs 2 between any two adjacent teeth 3 are both provided with a coating 4 .

[0055] Form 2

[0056] As attached Figure 4 As shown, based on form one, form two sets a coating 4 in the positioning area not only in the area between any two adjacent teeth 3, but also between the teeth 3 and the cloth tape 1, and / or between the teeth 3 and the ribs 2.

[0057] By extending the setting area of ​​the coating 4 to the installation position of the teeth 3 in the positioning area, during the tooth engagement process, the coating will overflow to the outer space of the teeth 3, making the fabric between any two adjacent teeth 3 tighter and the fabric softer, further increasing the zipper closing value in the positioning area, and realizing the zipper jamming and positioning functions in the positioning area. At the same time, during the production process, the coating process on the fabric is more continuous and simple, without the need to accurately locate between the teeth, and only the coating 4 needs to be continuously applied at the tooth installation position, which is convenient for actual production and processing.

[0058] Preferably, the cloth tape 1 and the belt rib 2 between any two adjacent teeth 3 are provided with a coating 4 , and the coating 4 is provided between the teeth 3 and the cloth tape 1 , and between the teeth 3 and the belt rib 2 .

[0059] Form Three

[0060] As attached Figure 5 As shown, in the entire positioning area, the cloth tape 1 and the ribs 2 are both provided with a coating 4, so that the coating area is larger and more obvious, which is not only convenient for actual production and processing, but also can be customized in different colors according to customer requirements. The coating color can be selected to match the zipper for aesthetic purposes, or a striking color can be selected to serve as a reminder. Reflective, fluorescent and other functional materials can also be added to increase functionality. Numbers, graphics, letters, LOGO and other information can also be added to the coating 4 to formulate personalized customer needs, which serves to convey information, remind or enhance aesthetics.

[0061] Form Four

[0062] As attached Figure 6 As shown, form 4 is a further supplement or limitation of forms 1 to 3. Based on the inside and outside of conventional clothing, the coating 4 can be set on the outer side of the positioning zipper (i.e., the outer side of the cloth tape 1 and / or the rib 2), or on the inner side of the positioning zipper (i.e., the inner side of the cloth tape 1 and / or the rib 2), or on both the outer and inner sides of the positioning zipper, so that the positioning zipper can meet the aesthetic and decorative requirements of different clothing. Figure 6 The coating 4 is shown to cover the inner and outer sides of the cloth tape 1 and surround the surface of the rib 2.

[0063] For any one of forms 1 to 4, the thickness of the coating 4 is 5%-15% of the thickness of the tape 1, which can not only effectively change the softness of the fabric to achieve the jamming and positioning functions of the zipper in the positioning area, but also will not affect the opening and closing effect of the zipper.

[0064] Form Five

[0065] As attached Figure 7 As shown, the cloth tape 1 is not modified, and only the ribs 2 in the positioning area are set as thickened ribs 5, and the diameter of the thickened ribs 5 is larger than the diameter of the ribs 2 in the conventional area. Preferably, the diameter of the thickened ribs 5 is 1.05-1.15 times the diameter of the ribs 2 in the conventional area.

[0066] The processing of the thickened ribs 5 can be carried out by adjusting the pulling speed of the woven ribs to change the thickness of the ribs during the processing of the ribs 2 of the cloth tape 1. For example, the diameter of No. 5 ribs of a conventional zipper is 1.45 mm. When processing the ribs in the positioning area, the speed of pulling the ribs by the equipment is slowed down by about 5%-15%, and the speed of the woven ribs remains unchanged, so that the thickened ribs 5 can be obtained in the positioning area.

[0067] Through the setting of the thickened rib 5, since the tooth 3 is adapted to the belt rib 2 in the conventional area, when the tooth foot of the tooth 3 is engaged and fixed with the thickened rib 5, the inner cavity size of the tooth foot of the tooth 3 is smaller than the diameter size of the thickened rib 5, and under gravity engagement, the cloth tape 1 inside the tooth foot will compact the tissue structure under force, and part of the thickened rib 5 will also overflow to the edge of the tooth, so that the cloth tape 1 and the thickened rib 5 in the positioning area will generate greater resistance when pulled together.

[0068] Correspondingly, form five can also be achieved by keeping the size of the ribs unchanged, that is, maintaining the same size of the ribs as in the conventional area, but when the ribs are woven into the cloth tape 1, the pulling speed of the webbing ribs in the positioning area is slowed down, so that the thickness of the cloth layer wrapping the ribs in the positioning area is thickened, which correspondingly increases the diameter of the positioning area at the ribs 2 in disguised form, which is equivalent to making a thickened rib 5. After the teeth 3 are arranged on the cloth tape in the positioning area, the cloth tape 1 and the ribs 2 in the positioning area can also generate greater resistance when being pulled together.

[0069] It should be noted that in order to facilitate intuitive comparison in the attached drawings, Figure 7 The black circular line at the outermost circle of the thickened rib 5 is the outer surface of the thickened rib 5, and the red circular line inside the black circular line is the outer surface of the rib 2 in the conventional area. The difference in diameter between the two can be intuitively seen.

[0070] Form Six

[0071] As attached Figure 8 As shown, form six does not change the thickness of the cloth tape 1 and the rib 2 in the positioning area, but only changes their hardness to achieve the purpose of increasing the zipper closing value in the positioning area. Specifically, by applying a hardening material (such as glue) on the cloth tape 1 and / or the rib 2, so that it penetrates into the fabric and solidifies to form a hardened part, the cloth tape 1 and / or the rib 2 become hardened to increase the zipper closing value in the positioning area, and realize the zipper's jamming and positioning functions in the positioning area.

[0072] The application position of the hardened material (ie, the position of the curing zone 6) is the same as the setting position of the coating layer 4 in any one of the forms 1, 2, and 3, and will not be described in detail.

[0073] Form Seven

[0074] As attached Fig. 9As shown, the content of form seven is the same as that of any one of forms one, two, three and four, except that forms one to four are provided with a coating 4, and form seven replaces the coating 4 with a thin plate member 7, wherein the thin plate member 7 may be an accessory such as a metal sheet or a plastic sheet, and is connected to the cloth tape 1 and / or the rib 2 by bonding, sewing or the like, so as to reduce the softness of the cloth in the positioning area, increase the zipper closing value in the positioning area, and realize the jamming and positioning functions of the zipper in the positioning area.

[0075] In the present invention, any zipper can adopt the positioning zipper described in this embodiment. Based on the relevant structure and assembly relationship provided in this embodiment, the zipper also includes conventional zipper components including a slider, upper and lower stops, etc., which are prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0076] In addition, based on the positioning zipper proposed in the present application, the positioning zipper can be applied to clothing, so that the clothing is provided with the positioning zipper to achieve standard and uniform dressing requirements; of course, the positioning zipper of the present application is preferably used for clothing, but is not limited to clothing, and can also be used as a zipper for items such as boxes, bags, and sacks.

[0077] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
