[0036] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present utility model, the technical solution of the present utility model will be described in detail below in conjunction with the specification drawings and specific implementation manners.

[0037] It should be noted here that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. is the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing these implementation manners and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first", "second", etc. may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features.

[0038] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a stretchable and expandable zipper cloth tape 100 of the present utility model, the zipper cloth tape 100 includes an upper layer belt 1, a middle layer belt 2 and a lower layer belt 3 which are arranged in sequence from top to bottom. One end of the middle layer belt 2 is flush with and connected to one end of the upper layer belt 1. The other end of the upper layer belt 1 extends beyond the other end of the middle layer belt 2 and forms a first connecting part 11 for connecting with the teeth or fabric; one end of the lower layer belt 3 is flush with and connected to the other end of the middle layer belt 2. The other end of the lower layer belt 3 extends beyond one end of the middle layer belt 2 and forms a second connecting part 31 for connecting with the fabric or teeth.

[0039] In the present utility model, the zipper tape 100 is designed to include an upper layer tape 1, a middle layer tape 2, and a lower layer tape 3 arranged in sequence from top to bottom. One end of the middle layer tape 2 is flush with and connected to one end of the upper layer tape 1. The other end of the upper layer tape 1 extends beyond the other end of the middle layer tape 2 to form a first connection portion 11. One end of the lower layer tape 3 is flush with and connected to the other end of the middle layer tape 2. The other end of the lower layer tape 3 extends beyond one end of the middle layer tape 2 to form a second connection portion 31. When in specific use, when no expansion is required, the upper layer tape 1, the middle layer tape 2, and the lower layer tape 3 can be stacked together to form a structure similar to an "N" shape. When expansion is needed, only an external force is applied to the zipper tape 100 along the width direction, and the upper layer tape 1, the middle layer tape 2, and the lower layer tape 3 can be stretched and unfolded into a "one" shape structure. Therefore, by applying this zipper tape 100 to a zipper, a single zipper can also achieve the expansion function, which helps to reduce the implementation cost and increase the scope of use.

[0040] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the first connection portion 11 is a connection portion for connecting the teeth, and the second connection portion 31 is a connection portion for connecting the fabric. By using the first connection portion 11 of the upper layer tape 1 as the connection portion for connecting the teeth and the second connection portion 31 of the lower layer tape 3 as the connection portion for connecting the fabric, after sewing the second connection portion 31 on the lower surface of the fabric, the upper surface of the upper layer tape 1 can be flush with the upper surface of the fabric or the height difference between the two is small, thus ensuring aesthetics. Of course, the present utility model is not limited to this. In specific implementation, the first connection portion 11 of the upper layer tape 1 can also be used as the connection portion for connecting the fabric, and the second connection portion 31 of the lower layer tape 3 can be used as the connection portion for connecting the teeth.

[0041] Furthermore, in order to better install the teeth and ensure that the teeth do not affect the stretching and unfolding of the zipper tape 100, the dimension of the first connection portion 11 along the width direction of the zipper tape 100 is greater than the dimension of the teeth along the width direction of the zipper tape 100.

[0042] Furthermore, in order to conveniently connect the second connection portion 31 to the fabric reliably, the dimension of the second connection portion 31 along the width direction of the zipper tape 100 is 5% - 40% of the dimension of the middle layer tape 2 along the width direction of the zipper tape 100. Preferably, the dimension of the second connection portion 31 along the width direction of the zipper tape 100 is 15% - 30% of the dimension of the middle layer tape 2 along the width direction of the zipper tape 100.

[0043] In some embodiments of the present utility model, in order to better form a multi-layer fabric, the zipper tape 100 is formed by interweaving a plurality of warp systems and a plurality of weft systems to form the upper layer tape 1, the middle layer tape 2, and the lower layer tape 3 that partially overlap and are connected.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 3 As shown, as the first specific embodiment of the present utility model, the zipper cloth tape 100 is formed by the interweaving of three warp systems and two weft systems to form the upper layer tape 1, the middle layer tape 2, and the lower layer tape 3 that are partially overlapped and connected;

[0045] The three warp systems include an upper warp system 41, a middle warp system 42, and a lower warp system 43, and the two weft systems include a first weft system 51 and a second weft system 52; wherein, the upper warp system 41, the middle warp system 42, and the lower warp system 43 each include a plurality of warp threads 441 arranged;

[0046] The upper warp system 41 and the first weft system 51 are interwoven to form the upper layer tape 1, the middle warp system 42 and the second weft system 52 are interwoven to form the middle layer tape 2, and the second weft system 52 is interwoven with the lower warp system 43 from the edge of the middle warp system 42 to form the lower layer tape 3, that is, the warp threads 441 at the edge of the middle warp system 42 and the warp threads 441 at the edge of the lower warp system 43 are interwoven and connected together by the second weft system 52 and used as a turning point. In this way, it can not only connect the middle layer tape 2 and the lower layer tape 3 together, but also realize folding at the position of this turning point, so that when no expansion is needed, the middle layer tape 2 can be stacked above the lower layer tape 3, and when expansion is needed, it can be stretched and unfolded;

[0047] The edge of the upper warp system 41 and the edge of the middle warp system 42 are interwoven and connected by the first weft system 51, that is, the warp threads 441 at the edge of the upper warp system 41 and the warp threads 441 at the edge of the middle warp system 42 are interwoven and connected together by the first weft system 51 and used as another turning point. In this way, it can not only connect the upper layer tape 1 and the middle layer tape 2 together, but also realize folding at the position of this other turning point, so that when no expansion is needed, the upper layer tape 1 can be stacked above the middle layer tape 2, and when expansion is needed, it can be stretched and unfolded so that the upper layer tape 1, the middle layer tape 2, and the lower layer tape 3 are in a straight state. It should be noted that: the first weft system 51 only interweaves and connects with the warp threads 441 at the edge of the middle warp system 42, and does not interweave with other warp threads 441 of the middle warp system 42.

[0048] The utility model forms the upper layer belt 1 by interweaving the first weft system 51 with the upper layer warp system 41, and uses the first weft system 51 to interweave and connect the edge of the upper layer warp system 41 with the edge of the middle layer warp system 42. At the same time, the second weft system 52 is interwoven with the middle layer warp system 42 to form the middle layer belt 2, and the second weft system 52 continues to be interwoven with the lower layer warp system 43 downward to form the lower layer belt 3, so that the upper layer belt 1, the middle layer belt 2 and the lower layer belt 3 can be reliably connected together, ensuring that the whole zipper tape 100 has strong tensile resistance, thus being suitable for various different use environments and better meeting the customer requirements. At the same time, the final zipper tape 100 also has better softness.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 4 As shown, as the second specific embodiment of the utility model, the zipper tape 100 is formed by interweaving three warp systems and three weft systems to form the upper layer belt 1, the middle layer belt 2 and the lower layer belt 3 which are partially overlapped and connected respectively; wherein, the upper layer warp system 41, the middle layer warp system 42 and the lower layer warp system 43 each include a plurality of warp threads 441 arranged.

[0050] The three warp systems include the upper layer warp system 41, the middle layer warp system 42 and the lower layer warp system 43, and the three weft systems include the first weft system 51, the second weft system 52 and the third weft system 53;

[0051] The upper warp system 41 and the first weft system 51 are interwoven to form the upper belt 1, the middle warp system 42 and the second weft system 52 are interwoven to form the middle belt 2, and the lower warp system 43 and the third weft system 53 are interwoven to form the lower belt 3; the edge of the upper warp system 41 and the edge of one side of the middle warp system 42 are interwoven and connected through the first weft system 51, that is, the warp 441 at the edge of the upper warp system 41 and the warp 441 at the edge of the middle warp system 42 are interwoven and connected together through the first weft system 51 and used as a turning point; the edge of the other side of the middle warp system 42 and the edge of the lower warp system 43 are interwoven and connected through the second weft system 52, that is, the warp 441 at the edge of the other side of the middle warp system 42 and the warp 441 at the edge of the lower warp system 43 are interwoven and connected together through the second weft system 52 and used as another turning point, so that when no expansion is needed, the upper belt 1 can be stacked above the middle belt 2, and when expansion is needed, it can be stretched and unfolded so that the upper belt 1, the middle belt 2 and the lower belt 3 are in a flat state. It should be noted that: the first weft system 51 is only interwoven and connected with the warp 441 at the edge of the middle warp system 42, and is not interwoven and connected with other warps 441 of the middle warp system 42; similarly, the second weft system 52 is only interwoven and connected with the warp 441 at the edge of the lower warp system 43, and is not interwoven and connected with other warps 441 of the lower warp system 43. Through the second specific embodiment of the present invention, it can also ensure that the entire zipper tape 100 has strong tensile resistance, so that it can be suitable for various different use environments and better meet the customer's needs. However, the softness of the finally manufactured zipper tape 100 will be worse than that of the first specific embodiment, but it can fully meet the use requirements of some occasions.

[0052] Furthermore, the upper belt 1, the middle belt 2 and the lower belt 3 all adopt a plain weave structure. Since the zipper tape 100 of the present invention is a multi-layer fabric, if a complicated pattern structure is adopted, abnormalities are likely to occur, such as defective products such as the upper belt 1 and the lower belt 3 being miswoven; therefore, the present invention is designed so that the upper belt 1, the middle belt 2 and the lower belt 3 all adopt a plain weave structure, which has better stability and is more convenient to manufacture.

[0053] As a specific embodiment of the present invention, the upper warp system 41 includes 80 warps 441, the middle warp system 42 includes 56 warps 441, and the lower warp system 43 includes 74 warps 441. Of course, the above is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to this. The specific number of warps of the upper warp system 41, the middle warp system 42 and the lower warp system 43 can be completely adjusted according to the specific width requirements of the zipper tape 100.

[0054] When the zipper tape 100 of the present utility model is specifically applied, it can be designed that a pair of zipper tapes of the zipper 200 are both the zipper tape 100 of the present utility model, and the first connecting parts 11 of the pair of zipper tapes 100 are arranged facing each other. A row of teeth 300 is installed on the edges of the two first connecting parts 11 facing each other. At the same time, a slider 400 capable of separating or closing the two rows of teeth 300 is installed on the teeth 300; as Figure 6 shown, in this way, when it is necessary to use the zipper 200 to achieve expansion, only an external force needs to be applied to both sides of the zipper 200, and the upper layer tape 1, the middle layer tape 2 and the lower layer tape 3 of the pair of zipper tapes 100 can be stretched and unfolded to form a "one" - shaped structure, so as to achieve the expansion function; as Figure 5 shown, when expansion is not required, the upper layer tape 1, the middle layer tape 2 and the lower layer tape 3 of the pair of zipper tapes 100 can be stacked together to form a structure similar to an "N" - shaped structure.

[0055] Although the specific embodiments of the present utility model have been described above, those skilled in the art of this technology should understand that the specific embodiments we described are illustrative rather than used to limit the scope of the present utility model. Equivalent modifications and changes made by those skilled in the art in accordance with the spirit of the present utility model should be covered by the scope protected by the claims of the present utility model.
