[0037] However, the silk screen printing process has an undeniable disadvantage that it can only print a single color each time, limiting the richness and diversity of the graphics on the zipper. With the progress of the times, the style of clothing is increasingly diverse, and consumers' aesthetic requirements for clothing are increasingly high. Consumers hope that the zipper can display more colorful graphic combinations. Therefore, the current decoration technology of making zipper graphics by using silk screen printing process cannot meet the urgent market demand for the diversification of zipper graphics due to the limitation of single-color graphic output method. At present, if you want to make the colors of the graphics on the zipper more rich, you can only repeat the silk screen printing process to print different colors, which is complicated.

[0038] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a zipper. In order to explain the technical solutions described in the present application, the following will be described in detail in combination with specific drawings and embodiments.

[0039] First embodiment

[0040] As shown in Figures 1 to 3 The present embodiment provides a zipper, which comprises a zipper tape 100 and a cover film 200. The zipper tape 100 is provided with a heat transfer background layer 110; the cover film 200 covers the heat transfer background layer 110, and the cover film 200 is formed with a light-transmitting area 220 of a predetermined shape, and the light-transmitting area 220 is used to expose the area of the heat transfer background layer 110 opposite to the light-transmitting area 220.

[0041] Compared with the related art, the zipper provided by the embodiment can set a heat transfer background layer 110 on the zipper tape 100, form a preset shape of the light transmission area 220 on the cover film 200, and make the area on the heat transfer background layer 110 opposite to the light transmission area 220 exposed through the light transmission area 220, so that the heat transfer background layer 110 and the preset shape of the light transmission area 220 are combined to display the required graphic information. The heat transfer background layer 110 is a background layer formed by a heat transfer process. The heat transfer process can set all the background colors contained in the graphic information on the product in one operation, so that the richness of the graphic information can be effectively improved, and the operation is simple and the production efficiency is high.

[0042] In the embodiment, the zipper tape 100 is used for installing a zipper. Alternatively, the zipper tape 100 can be made of polyester fiber, nylon or cotton, which is not limited herein.

[0043] Alternatively, the cover film 200 can be fixed on the zipper tape 100 by sewing, hot pressing or gluing, so that the cover film 200 stably covers the heat transfer background layer 110. The cover film 200 can protect the heat transfer background layer 110 to some extent, effectively reduce the occurrence of external scratching of the heat transfer background layer 110, and prolong the service life of the heat transfer background layer 110, so that the graphic information formed by the combination of the heat transfer background layer 110 and the light transmission area 220 can have better clarity for a long time. Alternatively, the cover film 200 can be made of rubber material, high polymer composite material or other suitable materials, which is not limited herein.

[0044] The cover film 200 is formed with a preset shape of the light transmission area 220. Specifically, the shape surrounded by the outline of the light transmission area 220 is the preset shape. The outline shape of the light transmission area 220 can be the outline shape of a cartoon image, such as the outline shape of a bear or the outline shape of a rabbit. Alternatively, the outline shape of the light transmission area 220 can also include the outline shape of one or more English letters. When the outline shape of the light transmission area 220 includes the outline shape of multiple English letters, it can be understood that the light transmission area 220 includes multiple subareas 221, and the outline shape of the subarea 221 is the outline shape of an English letter. The outline shape of the multiple subareas 221 can be the outline shape of different English letters, so that the multiple subareas 221 and the heat transfer background layer 110 can display a preset word or English sentence.

[0045] In one possible design, the cover film 200 includes a film main body and a light shielding layer 210. The film main body is transparent. The light shielding layer 210 is arranged on part of the film main body. The area of the film main body on which the light shielding layer 210 is not arranged is the light transmission area 220.

[0046] In this arrangement, by arranging the light-shielding layer 210 on the partial area 221 of the film body, that is, the light-shielding layer 210 covers the partial area 221 of the film 200 body, so that the area of the film 200 which is not covered by the light-shielding layer 210 forms a light-transmitting area 220. The contour shape of the light-transmitting area 220 can be adjusted by adjusting the layout of the light-shielding layer 210. When the film 200 covers the heat transfer background layer 110, the corresponding area in the heat transfer background layer 110 is accurately exposed through the light-transmitting area 220, so as to show a rich graphic effect.

[0047] In a possible design, the film body is a waterproof film, which can be made of a high-molecular waterproof material. In this way, the waterproof performance of the zipper can be improved.

[0048] In a possible design, the light-shielding layer 210 includes a silk-screen layer. That is, the light-shielding layer 210 can be attached to the film body by using a silk-screen process. By using the high precision and good performance of complex patterns of the silk-screen process, various contour-shaped light-transmitting areas 220 can be accurately arranged on the film body.

[0049] By using the above arrangement, the zipper provided by the embodiments of the present application combines the color richness advantage of the heat transfer process and the high-precision contour modeling advantage of the silk-screen process, so that the color of the graphic information formed by the combination of the light-transmitting area 220 and the heat transfer background layer 110 is rich and the contour is clear, and the display effect is better.

[0050] In a possible design, the light-shielding layer 210 can be formed on the side of the film body facing the zipper tape 100, or the light-shielding layer 210 can be formed on the side of the film body away from the zipper tape 100. Regardless of the arrangement, each has its own advantages.

[0051] When the light-shielding layer 210 is formed on the side of the film body facing the zipper tape 100, the film body can protect the light-shielding layer 210 to some extent, effectively reducing the risk of scratching the light-shielding layer 210 during use.

[0052] When the light-shielding layer 210 is formed on the side of the film body away from the zipper tape 100, the light-shielding layer 210 can protect the film body to some extent. The light-shielding layer 210 can block ultraviolet rays from the outside, avoiding the problem of aging of the film body caused by long-term exposure to the outside, and is beneficial to improve the service life of the zipper.

[0053] In a possible design, as shown in FIG. 8, the light-shielding layer 210 can be arranged on the side of the film body facing the zipper tape 100. Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the heat transfer background layer 110 includes a plurality of color zones 111, and the color between any two adjacent color zones 111 is different. The light-transmitting area 220 includes a plurality of sub-zones 221, and each sub-zone 221 corresponds to a color zone 111. The boundary of each color zone 111 is covered by the light-blocking layer 210.

[0054] According to the above arrangement, the boundary of each color zone 111 is not exposed through the sub-zone 221, so that the color of the area exposed through each sub-zone 221 in the heat transfer background layer 110 is one color, and the color of the area exposed through different sub-zones 221 in the heat transfer background layer 110 can be different. In this way, the color of the graphic information formed by the combination of the light-transmitting area 220 and the heat transfer background layer 110 is more distinct and cleaner.

[0055] In an example, the heat transfer background layer 110 includes a plurality of color zones 111, and the plurality of color zones 111 are arranged in sequence along a first direction. The color between any two adjacent color zones 111 is different. The first direction can be the length direction or the width direction of the zipper tape 100, or the first direction can also be any direction parallel to the zipper tape 100. The light-transmitting area 220 includes a plurality of sub-zones 221, and the plurality of sub-zones 221 are arranged at intervals along the first direction. The outline shapes of the plurality of sub-zones 221 can be the same or different, for example, the outline shapes of the plurality of sub-zones 221 are the outline shapes of different English letters. The plurality of sub-zones 221 are arranged one by one corresponding to the plurality of color zones 111, and each sub-zone 221 is arranged opposite to the corresponding color zone 111 on the side away from the zipper tape 100, so that part of the color zones 111 can be exposed through the corresponding sub-zone 221. In this example, the area of the light-blocking layer 210 between any two adjacent sub-zones 221 covers the boundary between the two color zones 111 corresponding to the two sub-zones 221, so that the boundary of each color zone 111 is covered by the light-blocking layer 210.

[0056] In the embodiments of the present application, the heat transfer background layer 110 can be directly transferred to the zipper tape 100 by a heat transfer process. Alternatively, in a possible design, the zipper further includes an intermediate carrier portion, and the heat transfer background layer 110 is arranged on the intermediate carrier portion. The intermediate carrier portion is fixed to the zipper tape 100.

[0057] By arranging the intermediate carrier portion, the zipper tape 100 and the intermediate carrier portion provided with the heat transfer background layer 110 can be produced and inspected separately. In this way, the need to discard the entire zipper tape 100 or even the zipper on the zipper tape 100 due to transfer errors can be avoided, thereby reducing losses to some extent and saving production costs.

[0058] Optionally, the intermediate carrier portion may include a piece of cloth, leather, plastic, or metal. In some examples, when the intermediate carrier portion includes a piece of leather, plastic, or metal, the relatively strong structure of these materials provides a relatively flat and stable support surface for the heat transfer background layer 110. This improves the operational stability of the heat transfer process, thereby enhancing the printing accuracy and quality of the heat transfer background layer 110 and making the details of the graphic information composed of the heat transfer background layer 110 and the light-transmitting area 220 clearer.

[0059] Optionally, the cover film 200 can be connected to the intermediate carrier portion, and the cover film 200 is connected to the zipper tape 100 through the intermediate carrier portion. Alternatively, the cover film 200 can also be directly connected to the zipper tape 100, with the intermediate carrier portion disposed between the cover film 200 and the zipper tape 100.

[0060] Second Embodiment

[0061] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment provides another type of zipper, including a zipper tape 100 and a cover film 200. The zipper tape 100 is provided with a heat transfer background layer 110. The cover film 200 covers the heat transfer background layer 110, and a light-transmitting area 220 of a preset shape is formed on the cover film 200. The light-transmitting area 220 is used to expose the area of ​​the heat transfer background layer 110 opposite to the light-transmitting area 220.

[0062] In this embodiment, the cover film 200 is a light-blocking film, that is, the cover film 200 is an opaque film. The light-blocking film has a perforated structure, which is the light-transmitting area 220 on the cover film 200. The area of ​​the heat transfer background layer 110 opposite to the perforated structure can be exposed through the perforated structure.

[0063] Compared with related technologies, the zipper provided in this embodiment, by setting a heat transfer background layer 110 on the zipper tape 100 and setting a cutout structure (i.e., a light-transmitting area 220) on the light-blocking film (i.e., the covering film 200), allows the area on the heat transfer background layer 110 opposite to the cutout structure to be exposed through the cutout structure. The heat transfer background layer 110 combined with the cutout structure of a preset shape displays the required graphic information. The heat transfer background layer 110 is a background layer formed by the heat transfer process. The heat transfer process can set all the background colors contained in the graphic information on the product in one operation, thus effectively improving the richness of the graphic information, and is simple to operate and has high production efficiency.

[0064] In one possible design, the heat transfer background layer 110 includes a plurality of color zones 111, any two adjacent color zones 111 are different in color, the light transmission area 220 includes a plurality of sub-zones 221, each sub-zone 221 corresponds to a color zone 111, and the boundary of each color zone 111 is covered by the light shielding layer 210. In this embodiment, the hollow structure includes a plurality of hollow areas, each hollow area is a sub-zone 221.

[0065] According to the above arrangement, the color of the area exposed by each hollow area in the heat transfer background layer 110 is one color, and the color of the area exposed by different hollow areas in the heat transfer background layer 110 can be different. In this way, the boundary of the color zone 111 is not exposed through the hollow area, the color of the area exposed by each hollow area is one color, and thus the color of the graphic information formed by the combination of the light transmission area 220 and the heat transfer background layer 110 is more distinct and has higher neatness.

[0066] Optionally, the zipper further includes an intermediate carrier portion, the heat transfer background layer 110 is arranged on the intermediate carrier portion, and the intermediate carrier portion is fixed to the zipper tape 100.

[0067] Optionally, the intermediate carrier portion includes a cloth sheet, a leather sheet, a plastic sheet, or a metal sheet.

[0068] Optionally, the light shielding film is connected to the intermediate carrier portion or the zipper tape 100. When the light shielding film is connected to the intermediate carrier portion, the light shielding film is connected to the zipper tape 100 through the intermediate carrier portion. When the light shielding film is directly connected to the zipper tape 100, the intermediate carrier portion is arranged between the light shielding film and the zipper tape 100.

[0069] The above only describes optional embodiments of the present application and is not used to limit the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, and improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
