Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of button technology, and more particularly to an adjustable button. Background Technology

[0002] Buttons are functional components on clothing or fabrics used for closing and connecting. Their core function is to keep items closed through the "fastening" action, ensuring a close and secure fit when worn or used. However, once a button is installed, its tightening range is fixed, meaning the fastening position is unique. The tightness cannot be adjusted through simple operations; the only option is to disassemble and reinstall the button. This results in buttons having poor adaptability and being unable to cope with changes in environment and scenario. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an easily adjustable button to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0004] The technical solution of this application is implemented as follows:

[0005] This application provides an adjustable button, including a hook and a hook assembly located on both sides of clothing or textiles. Both the hook and hook assemblies are connected to a fastener. The hook assembly includes a first cap, which is provided in two sets. A collar hook is connected between the two sets of first caps. The fastener includes a spike, and the bottom of the first cap has a first limiting groove. The first cap and the fastener are connected by inserting the spike into the first limiting groove.

[0006] The hook component includes a second buckle cap, which is provided in two sets. A hook is connected between the two sets of second buckle caps. The bottom of the second buckle cap is provided with a second limiting groove for the insertion of the spike. The hook has hooks on both sides. When the second buckle cap and the fastener are connected, the hooks are located between the second buckle cap and the fastener.

[0007] The collar hook has a buckle portion and the hook has a hanging ear portion. The collar hook and the hook are connected by hooking the buckle portion onto the hanging ear portion.

[0008] The top of the first buckle has a groove, and a slot is provided in the groove. Both ends of the collar hook have mounting parts that are embedded in the slot. Several slots are provided and distributed at intervals in the groove. The cooperation between the slot and the collar hook allows the hook to move closer to or further away from the first buckle.

[0009] In one embodiment, a first magnetic layer is provided on the end face of the groove, and a first magnetic attraction part matching the first magnetic layer is provided on the mounting part.

[0010] When the mounting part is partially embedded in the slot, the collar hook is magnetically connected to the first buckle cap through the cooperation of the first magnetic layer and the first magnetic attraction part.

[0011] In one embodiment, both ends of the ear portion have recesses, and when the hook portion is connected to the ear portion, part of the hook portion is embedded in the recesses.

[0012] The outer periphery of the hook part fits against the inner wall of the recessed part.

[0013] In one embodiment, the fastener further includes a pressing part, a spike part is disposed on one side of the pressing part, and a support plate is also disposed on the pressing part and located on the outer periphery of the spike part;

[0014] The bottom of both the first and second buckles is provided with a second magnetic part, and the side of the support plate away from the pressing part is provided with a second magnetic layer;

[0015] When the spike is embedded in the first or second limiting groove, the spike fastener is magnetically connected to the first or second buckle through the cooperation of the second magnetic layer.

[0016] In one embodiment, a pad is provided in either the first or the second limiting groove, and the pad has a sealing groove. When the top of the spike is located in the first or the second limiting groove, the inner wall of the sealing groove abuts against the outer periphery of the spike.

[0017] In one embodiment, a positioning groove is also provided in the sealing groove, which accommodates the tip of the spike through which it passes.

[0018] In one embodiment, the hook portion is provided in a ring-shaped structure, and when the hook portion is connected to the second buckle, the inner wall of the hook portion fits against the outer periphery of the second buckle.

[0019] The advantages or beneficial effects of the above technical solutions include at least the following:

[0020] This application discloses an adjustable button. Through the connection of a fastener, a hook and latch component, and a hanging fastener component, a first and a second button cap are installed on both sides of clothing or textiles. Since the hanging fastener component and the hook and latch component have interconnected collar hooks and hooks, the clothing or fabric can be tightened when the hooks and collar hooks are connected. Furthermore, since the mounting part of the collar hook is movably installed in the slot of the first button cap, and there are several slots, the distance between the collar hook and the hook can be adjusted by connecting the mounting part to different slots. This allows for tightening of clothing or textiles of different lengths when connected, achieving a stepped adjustment of the tightening range. This solves the problem of existing buttons having a fixed spacing after installation, which prevents flexible adjustment according to actual conditions and limits their use.

[0037] The names of the messages or information exchanged between multiple devices in the embodiments of this application are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of these messages or information.

[0038] Reference Figures 1-4 An adjustable button includes a hook and loop fastener 1 and a hanging fastener 2 located on both sides of clothing or textiles. Both the hook and loop fastener 1 and the hanging fastener 2 are connected to a fastener 3. The hook and loop fastener 1 includes a first cap 11, of which two sets are provided. A collar hook 12 connects the two sets of first caps 11. The arrangement of the two sets of caps changes the connection point from a single point to a double point, dispersing the tension when the clothing is pulled. When the clothing is subjected to lateral tension, the tension is evenly transmitted to the two first caps 11 through the collar hook 12, and then distributed to the fabric of the clothing through the fastener 3. This avoids the cap from falling off or the fabric from tearing due to excessive force at a single point in a single cap structure, significantly improving the button's load-bearing capacity and durability. Figure 3 In the middle, the fastener 3 includes a spike part 31, and the bottom of the first buckle 11 has a first limiting groove 111. The first buckle 11 and the fastener 3 are connected by inserting the spike part 31 into the first limiting groove 111.

[0039] Figure 4In the middle, the hook component 2 includes a second cap 21, which is provided in two sets. A hook 22 is connected between the two sets of second caps 21. The collar hook 12 and the hook 22 serve as intermediate components connecting the two sets of caps. They are made of alloy or high-strength plastic and can produce slight deformation when subjected to force to buffer the instantaneous impact force brought by the movement of clothing, reduce the rigid wear of the cap and the fastener 3, and extend the overall service life. The bottom of the second cap 21 is provided with a second limiting groove 211 for the insertion of the spike 31. The hook 22 has bent hooks 221 on both sides. When the second cap 21 and the fastener 3 are connected, the bent hooks 221 are located between the second cap 21 and the fastener 3. Referring to the figure, the spike 31 can be made of high carbon steel, which is sharp and tough and can easily penetrate the fabric and accurately insert into the limiting groove. The inner wall of the limiting groove is tightly fitted with the outer periphery of the spike 31 to form a mechanical lock, which effectively prevents the fastener 3 from loosening due to vibration or pulling during daily activities.

[0040] The collar hook 12 has a hook portion 121, and the hook 22 has a hanging ear portion 222. The collar hook 12 and the hook 22 are connected by hooking the hook portion 121 onto the hanging ear portion 222. The hooking structure of the hook portion 121 and the hanging ear portion 222 does not require precise alignment; the user simply places the hook portion 121 onto the hanging ear portion 222 to fasten the hook. This is especially suitable for children, the elderly, or those with limited hand mobility, solving the problem of difficult hole alignment in traditional buttons. (Refer to...) Figure 1 After fastening, the contact area between the hook portion 121 and the loop portion 222 is relatively large, which can disperse the tension at the fastening point and prevent single-point puncture or breakage. Even during vigorous clothing movement, the hook portion 121 is not easy to slip off the loop portion 222, ensuring that the button is always in the fastened state;

[0041] Reference Figure 6 The top of the first cap 11 has a groove 112, and a slot 113 is provided in the groove 112. Both ends of the collar hook 12 have mounting parts 122 that are embedded in the slots 113. Several slots 113 are provided and distributed at intervals in the groove 112. The cooperation between the slots 113 and the collar hook 12 makes the hook 22 closer to or further away from the first cap 11. Multiple slots 113 form a multi-position adjustment function. The user can adjust the distance between the hook component 1 and the hook component 2 by embedding the mounting part 122 into the slots 113 at different positions. For example, when wearing a shirt, a closer position can be selected to make the collar fit snugly, and when wearing a sweater, a farther position can be selected to avoid tightness, adapting to different clothing thicknesses and wearing scenarios.

[0042] Based on the above structure, the button installation position is selected, and the hook and snap fastener 1 and the hanging fastener 2 are installed respectively. The hook and snap fastener 1 and the hanging fastener 2 are fixed by the fastener 3. Since the fastener 1 and the hanging fastener 2 have interconnected collar hook 12 and hook fastener 22 respectively, and the distance between the collar hook 12 and the hook fastener 22 can represent the tightening range of the button, and since the mounting part 122 on the collar fastener 12 is movably installed in the slot 113 provided by the first button cap 11, and there are several slots 113, when the mounting part 122 is inserted into the slot 113 near the inner side of the groove 112, the overall length of the collar hook 12 and the hook fastener 22 is reduced. The shortening of the buckle causes the two sets of first buckle caps 11 to move closer to each other, thereby reducing the initial distance between the hook part 121 of the hook component 1 and the hanging ear part 222 of the hook component 2. At this time, the connection points on both sides of the garment are closer after fastening, forming a tightened state. Conversely, if the mounting part 122 is embedded in the slot 113 away from the inner side of the groove 112, the distance increases, which increases the initial distance between the hook part 121 and the hanging ear part 222. After fastening, the distance between the connection points on both sides of the garment expands, forming a loose state. By selecting the corresponding slot 113, the tightening range can be adjusted in a step-like manner, solving the problem that existing buttons cannot be adjusted in terms of tightening range after installation, resulting in a lack of flexibility in use.

[0043] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 1-3 A first magnetic layer 114 is provided on the end face of the groove 112, and a first magnetic attraction part 1221 matching the first magnetic layer 114 is provided on the mounting part 122. The first magnetic layer 114 and the first magnetic attraction part 1221 are magnetic poles that attract each other. When part of the mounting part 122 is embedded in the slot 113, the collar hook 12 is magnetically connected to the first buckle 11 through the cooperation of the first magnetic layer 114 and the first magnetic attraction part 1221. The magnetic attraction force generated between the first magnetic layer 114 and the first magnetic attraction part 1221 will attract the mounting part 122 to the end face of the groove 112, forming a longitudinal fixing force. Through the dual action of magnetic attraction and mechanical limiting, a detachable and stable connection between the collar hook 12 and the first buckle 11 is achieved. The structural design of the slot 113 limits the embedding position of the mounting part 122, preventing the mounting part 122 from being misaligned during the connection process.

[0044] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 Both ends of the ear part 222 have recessed parts 2221. When the hook part 121 is connected to the ear part 222, part of the hook part 121 is embedded in the recessed part 2221, and the recessed part 2221 plays a wrapping role for the hook part 121.

[0045] Figure 4In the middle, the outer periphery of the hook portion 121 fits against the inner wall of the recess 2221. The structure of the recess 2221 provides a precise positioning space for the hook portion 121. The tight fit between its inner wall and the outer periphery of the hook portion 121 can generate a large friction force, which restricts the movement of the hook portion 121 on the ear portion 222 and prevents the hook portion 121 from slipping off the ear portion 222 when it is pulled by an external force.

[0046] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The fastener 3 also includes a pressing part 32, with a spike 31 disposed on one side of the pressing part 32. The pressing part 32 is also provided with a support plate 321 located on the outer periphery of the spike 31. The pressing part 32 provides a comfortable point of force application for the user. The user only needs to hold the pressing part 32 and align the spike 31 with the installation position on the clothing and the first limiting groove 111 or the second limiting groove 211. By applying pressure, the spike 31 can smoothly penetrate the clothing and embed itself in the first limiting groove 111 or the second limiting groove 211. During this process, the support plate 321 will fit tightly against the surface of the clothing to prevent the clothing from wrinkling or breaking under pressure.

[0047] Both the first cap 11 and the second cap 21 have a second magnetic attraction part 4 at their bottom. The support plate 321 has a second magnetic layer 3211 on the side away from the pressing part 32. The second magnetic attraction part 4 and the second magnetic layer 3211 are mutually attracted magnetic poles. When the spike part 31 is inserted into the first limiting groove 111 or the second limiting groove 211, the second magnetic layer 3211 engages with the spike 3, magnetically connecting it to the first cap 11 or the second cap 21. The second magnetic layer 3211 generates a magnetic attraction force with the second magnetic attraction part 4, attracting the support plate 321 to the bottom of the first cap 11 or the second cap 21, thus firmly securing the spike 3 and preventing it from loosening or falling off during daily wear due to clothing shaking or pulling. When it is necessary to remove the spike 3, only a pulling force slightly greater than the magnetic attraction force needs to be applied to remove it from the first cap 11 or the second cap 21, improving ease of operation.

[0048] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 2 and Figure 3A pad 5 is provided in either the first limiting groove 111 or the second limiting groove 211. The pad 5 is made of rubber or silicone and has a sealing groove 51. When the top of the spike 31 is located in the first limiting groove 111 or the second limiting groove 211, the inner wall of the sealing groove 51 abuts against the outer periphery of the spike 31. The pad 5 can buffer the spike 31 and reduce the impact on the first buckle 11 or the second buckle 21 when the spike 31 is embedded in the limiting groove. The sealing groove 51 and the tight fit between the sealing groove 51 and the outer periphery of the spike 31 can prevent external dust, moisture and other impurities from entering the limiting groove. At the same time, it plays a radial limiting role on the spike 31 to prevent the spike 31 from shaking in the limiting groove. In addition, the radial limiting role of the sealing groove 51 on the spike 31 can prevent the spike 31 from swaying left and right when the clothes are shaken, thus ensuring the stability of the connection between the fastener 3 and the first buckle 11 or the second buckle 21.

[0049] The sealing groove 51 is also provided with a positioning groove 511, which accommodates the tip of the spike 31 to pass through. The positioning groove 511 provides a precise guide channel for the tip of the spike 31, ensuring that the spike 31 can be embedded in the sealing groove 51 and the first limiting groove 111 or the second limiting groove 211 in a predetermined direction. At the same time, the wrapping effect of the positioning groove 511 on the tip of the spike 31 can further enhance the stability of the spike 31 in the sealing groove 51. Combined with the limiting effect of the sealing groove 51 on the outer periphery of the spike 31, a double fixation of the spike 31 is formed.

[0050] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The hook portion 221 is arranged in a ring shape, which can fully wrap around the outer periphery of the second cap 21, increasing the contact area between them. When the hook portion 221 is connected to the second cap 21, the inner wall of the hook portion 221 fits against the outer periphery of the second cap 21. This tight fit between the inner wall of the hook portion 221 and the outer periphery of the second cap 21 generates friction and cohesion, allowing the second cap 21 to withstand external forces from all directions through the hook portion 221. The inner wall disperses the force, preventing excessive local stress from deforming the hook 221 or the second cap 21. Furthermore, even if the garment is subjected to significant pulling force during daily wear, this tight fit ensures that the hook 221 and the second cap 21 will not loosen or fall off. In addition, this ring-shaped fit structure makes the connection between the hook 221 and the second cap 21 smooth, without forming protrusions or sharp edges on the surface of the garment, thus improving the comfort and aesthetics of wearing the garment.
