[0032] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0033] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, a semi-finished zipper includes: a cloth tape 8 and a connecting post 1, teeth 5 and a connecting post 1.

[0035] There are two cloth belts 8, which are symmetrically arranged. A plurality of teeth 5 are arranged in an array on one side of the two cloth belts 8, and the teeth 5 are tightly combined with the cloth belts 8 during injection molding.

[0036] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, two connecting posts 1 are connected to a feed post 2, wherein the two connecting posts 1 are symmetrically arranged, and both the connecting posts 1 and the feed post 2 are formed by cooling the injection molding material before being transported to the tooth mold, and a plurality of injection molding parts 3 are arranged in an array on one side of the connecting post 1, and the injection molding part 3 is connected to the rear end face of the tooth 5, and the connection position between the injection molding part 3 and the rear end face of the tooth 5 is the surface to be cut. The surface to be cut is set at the rear end face of the tooth 5, and after the injection molding part 3 is cut off by a cutter, the burr only exists on the end face of the tail of the tooth 5, and there is no burr on the tooth head and other parts of the finished zipper, and the position of the burr is well hidden, thereby preventing the clothing fabric from being caught by the burr and snagging, and the burr scratching the skin.

[0037] Furthermore, since the injection molding portion 3 is connected to the rear end face of the tooth 5, during injection molding, the rear end portion of the tooth 5 is first formed and combined with the cloth tape 8, and then the front end portion of the tooth 5 is further formed, and the bonding force between the tooth 5 and the cloth tape 8 is enhanced. During injection molding, the injection molding quality of the tooth 5 will not be greatly affected by factors such as improper mold temperature control, insufficient pressure, or injection molding holding time, thereby reducing the phenomenon of missing teeth and falling off of the zipper, and effectively improving the yield rate of the zipper.

[0038] It should be noted that one row of teeth 5 is located on the left side of the connecting post 1 , and the other row of teeth 5 is located on the right side of the connecting post 1 . After being processed into a zipper, the two rows of teeth 5 respectively located on the two tapes 8 can mesh with each other.

[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, in the first embodiment of the utility model, a docking post 4 is provided at one end of the injection molding part 3, the docking post 4 is provided on one side of the cloth belt 8, and each docking post 4 is connected to a tooth 5. Preferably, the docking post 4 is connected to the center of the rear end surface of the tooth 5, and each docking post 4 is connected to a tooth 5. In this case, the material distribution of the tooth 5 formed by injection molding is more uniform, and the quality of the formed tooth 5 is better.

[0040] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, in the second embodiment of the utility model, the docking column 4 is located at the edge of the rear end surface of the tooth 5, one end of the connecting column 1 is set as the fixed end a, and the other end of the connecting column 1 is set as the free end b. The connecting column 1 will pull the tooth 5 when it cools and shrinks during the molding process. When the docking column 4 is connected to the center position of the rear end surface of the tooth 5, the connecting column 1 will apply a force to the tooth 5 through the injection molding part 3 when it cools and shrinks during the molding process. The tooth 5 is pulled and twisted by a certain angle, resulting in the two rows of teeth 5 of the zipper being unable to align and mesh, affecting the normal use of the zipper. By connecting the docking post 4 to the edge position of the rear end face of the tooth 5, further, the docking post 4 located on the left part of the connecting post 1 is connected to the left edge of the rear end face of the tooth 5, and the docking post 4 located on the right part of the connecting post 1 is connected to the right edge of the rear end face of the tooth 5, that is, changing the position of the point of application of force when the connecting post 1 applies force to the tooth 5 through the injection molding part 3, when the connecting post 1 cools and shrinks during the molding process, the tooth 5 is avoided as much as possible from being pulled and driven, thereby improving the position accuracy of the tooth 5 after molding, ensuring that the two rows of teeth 5 of the zipper can be normally aligned and meshed, thereby improving the overall quality of the zipper.

[0041] like Figure 7 As shown, in the third embodiment of the utility model, two docking posts 4 are arranged at one end of the injection molding part 3, and two connecting posts 1 are symmetrically arranged. The two docking posts 4 arranged in the same injection molding part 3 are respectively connected to two adjacent teeth 5, and each tooth 5 is connected to one of the docking posts 4 in the two adjacent injection molding parts 3. In the process from hot melting to cooling of the teeth 5, due to the characteristics of thermal expansion and contraction, the teeth 5 will shrink toward the direction of the connecting post 1. The two docking posts 4 are respectively connected to the left and right edge positions of the rear end surface of the teeth 5. When the connecting post 1 cools and shrinks during the molding process, the teeth 5 can only move in parallel, limiting the teeth 5 from twisting to a certain angle, further ensuring the alignment between the two rows of teeth 5, and the finished zipper has better smoothness, thereby improving the overall quality of the zipper.

[0042] In one embodiment of the utility model, one end of the docking column 4 is cone-shaped, and the tip of the cone is connected to the rear end surface of the tooth 5, so that the injection molding part 3 and the tooth 5 are connected in a point shape, which is convenient for separating the tooth 5 and the injection molding part 3 by a cutter later.

[0043] It should be noted that the surface to be cut can be set to various shapes, such as square, round, and elongated strip, etc. Preferably, the surface to be cut is set to a rectangle, and the ratio of the cross-sectional length of the surface to be cut to the cross-sectional length of the rear end face of the tooth 5 is between 1:3-1:2, and the ratio of the cross-sectional width of the surface to be cut to the cross-sectional width of the rear end face of the tooth 5 is between 1:3-1:2. When a docking column 4 is provided on the end face of the connecting portion, preferably, the ratio between the cross-sectional length of the surface to be cut and the length of the rear end face of the tooth 5 is 1:2, and the ratio between the cross-sectional width of the surface to be cut and the width of the rear end face of the tooth 5 is 1:2. When a surface to be cut is provided on the rear end face of the tooth 5, preferably, the ratio between the cross-sectional length of the surface to be cut and the length of the rear end face of the tooth 5 is 1:3, and the ratio between the cross-sectional width of the surface to be cut and the width of the rear end face of the tooth 5 is 1:3. Under the condition that the cutter can smoothly separate the tooth 5 from the injection molding portion 3, the surface to be cut is expanded as much as possible, the feed amount per unit time during injection molding is large enough, the feeding efficiency is higher, the molding time of each part of the tooth is basically consistent, and the stability of the tooth 5 is better.

[0044] A rounded corner 7 is provided on one side of the surface to be cut, wherein the ratio of the diameter of the rounded corner 7 to the cross-sectional length of the surface to be cut is between 1:5 and 1:3. Preferably, the ratio of the diameter of the rounded corner 7 to the cross-sectional length of the surface to be cut is preferably 1:4. The square surface to be cut with the rounded corner 7 can adapt to the shape of the tail of the tooth 5, ensuring that the injection molded part 3 is easy to cut while having better smoothness after cutting, thereby effectively improving the smoothness of the tooth 5 and improving the overall quality of the zipper.

[0045] A zipper provided by the present invention comprises: two symmetrically arranged cloth tapes 8, and a plurality of teeth 5 are arranged in an array on one side of the two cloth tapes 8, wherein the teeth 5 comprise: a cutting surface 6, and the cutting surface 6 is formed on the rear end face of the teeth 5. Since the surface to be cut is arranged on the rear end face of the teeth 5, after the injection molding part 3 is cut off by a cutter, the burr only exists on the end face of the tail of the teeth 5, and the teeth 5 of the finished zipper do not have burrs on the tooth head and other parts, the position of the burr is well hidden, and the teeth 5 have good overall smoothness, which effectively prevents the clothing fabric from being caught by the burr to cause snagging and the burr from scratching the skin.

[0046] like Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the tooth 5 further includes: a main body 501, a tooth neck 502 and a tooth head 503 which are integrally arranged, the main body 501 is connected to the cloth tape 8, the tooth head 503 is elliptical, and the tooth neck 502 is provided with a groove which is elliptical. The tooth neck 502 and the tooth head 503 can mesh with each other, thereby ensuring the normal closing and opening of the zipper.

[0047] A cylindrical ribbed portion 9 is integrally provided on one side of the tape 8, and the cylindrical ribbed portion 9 is embedded in the main body 501. The ribbed portion 9 is integrally connected to the tape 8, and the ribbed portion 9 extends along the length direction of the tape 8. After the teeth 5 are formed, the bonding strength between the teeth 5 and the tape 8 is higher, which effectively reduces the phenomenon of missing teeth and falling teeth, and further improves the yield rate of the zipper.

[0048] The front end surface of the tooth head 503 is provided with a tooth head groove 504, and the tooth head groove 504 passes through the tooth 5. The setting of the tooth head groove 504 can save a certain amount of injection molding material, and at the same time, it can also avoid burrs on the tooth head of the tooth 5, thereby further improving the smoothness of the zipper.

[0049] In summary, by connecting the injection molding part 3 to the rear end face of the tooth 5, there are no burrs on the tooth heads of the tooth 5 in the finished zipper product, and the burrs are hidden, thereby preventing the clothing fabric from being caught by the burrs and causing snagging and the burrs from scratching the skin. In addition, the two rows of teeth 5 engage with each other more smoothly, effectively improving the smoothness of the finished zipper product.

[0050] It should be noted that, in this specification, relational terms such as first and second are merely used to distinguish one entity from other entities, but do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities.

[0051] This article uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the utility model. The above examples are only used to help understand the method and core ideas of the utility model. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, without departing from the principles of the utility model, the utility model can also be improved and modified, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the scope of protection of the utility model.
