Product with an attached fastener, method for producing a product with an attached fastener, and woven zipper tape

Abstract

Each of the woven fastener tapes (20, 20a, 20b, 20c) of a product with an attached fastener (1, 2, 3) of the present invention has a shape such that an element attachment portion (24) of a fastener tape (21, 21a, 21b) is folded back with respect to a tape body portion (22) at a folded portion (23). Warp threads (30) of the fastener tape (21, 21a, 21b) include a plurality of first warp threads (31) of equal thickness and a second warp thread (32) thicker than the first warp threads (31). A sewing section (60) with a sewing thread penetrates the fastener tape (21, 21a, 21b) at a location near the second warp thread (32) and sews the woven zipper tapes (20, 20a, 20b, 20c) and an element with an attached fastener (6, 7, 8).This makes it unlikely that the positions of the warp threads (30) of the fastener tape (21, 21a, 21b) will shift in the weft thread direction, even if a strong lateral tensile force is applied. This prevents or prevents the fastener tape (21, 21a, 21b) and the element row from becoming visible to the outside.

Description

Technical area

[0001] The present invention relates to a fastener-attached product comprising a pair of woven fastener tapes and a fastener-attached member to which the woven fastener tapes are sewn with a sewing portion including a sewing thread, a method for manufacturing the fastener-attached product, and a woven fastener tape used in the fastener-attached product. State of the art

[0002] One of the well-known zippers is a concealed zipper (hereinafter referred to as a concealed zipper) with a concealing property in which the zipper elements are not (or only with difficulty) visible from the outer surface side of the zipper when the left and right rows of elements are engaged with each other.

[0003] Japanese Unexamined Patent Application No. 2008-119076 (PTL 1) describes a woven fastener tape used as a fastener tape in a concealed slide fastener, comprising a fastener tape having a woven structure and a plurality of fastener elements woven into and attached to a part of the fastener tape when the fastener tape is woven.

[0004] In the woven fastener tape of PTL 1, in an element attachment portion of the fastener tape, upper fastening warp threads extend in the warp direction on the outer surfaces of the upper leg portions of the fastener elements; lower fastening warp threads extend in the warp direction on the outer surfaces of the lower leg portions of the fastener elements; and fastening warp threads extending in the warp direction so as to alternately straddle the upper leg portion and the lower leg portion of the fastener elements are arranged as the warp threads of the woven structure. In PTL 1, the total fineness of the lower fastening warp threads, which extend closer to the engaging head portions of the fastener elements than the fastening warp threads, is set to be larger than the total fineness of the upper fastening warp threads, which extend closer to the engaging head portions than the fastening warp threads.

[0005] In the woven fastener tape of PTL 1, the lower fastening warp threads, which are closer to the engaging head portions of the fastener elements than the fastening warp threads, are densely arranged. Therefore, in the case where a concealed fastener is manufactured using the woven fastener tape of PTL 1, when a lateral tensile force that pulls the left and right fastener tape bands from the left and right outer sides in the width direction is applied in a state where the left and right element rows of the concealed fastener are engaged with each other, it is possible to make it difficult for a gap to occur between the left and right fastener tape bands. This makes it possible to improve the concealed fastener's concealed performance. CitationsPatent literature

[0006] PTL 1: Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2008-119076 Summary of the inventionTechnical problem

[0007] In the conventional woven fastener tape disclosed in Patent Application Publication 1, the fastener tape is woven by passing a weft thread through a plurality of warp threads. Furthermore, during the weaving of the fastener tape, the fastener elements are inserted into the warp threads in accordance with the timing of the weft thread passage, so that the fastener elements are woven into and fixed to a part of the fastener tape.

[0008] However, in the woven fastener tape formed by matching the weft thread routing of the fastener tape and the insertion of the fastener elements, the density of the weft thread in the longitudinal direction of the fastener tape is lower than that of a fastener tape having a typical woven structure in which the fastener elements are not woven into the fastener tape.

[0009] When a concealed zipper is manufactured using a woven zipper tape with a low weft density, the following problems may occur when sewing the concealed zipper to a member with an attached fastener, such as a fabric, to produce a product with an attached concealed zipper.

[0010] Specifically, in a manufactured product with an attached concealed zipper, when a fastener-attached element (fabric) is strongly pulled, the concealed zipper is subjected to a large lateral tensile force across a sewing section where the fastener-attached element and the woven zipper tape are sewn together. Since the weft density in the zipper tape is low as described above, the positions of the warp threads located near the fastener tape sewing section at this time tend to be shifted in the weft direction by the lateral tensile force.

[0011] As a result, the position of the sewing section also tends to be shifted in the weft direction due to the positional shift of the warp threads. This may shift the position of the element with a fastener attached, forming a gap between the left and right elements with a fastener attached. In addition, when the positions of the warp threads near the section in the fastener tape shift in the weft direction, a gap tends to form between the left and right fastener tapes, or the gap between the left and right fastener tapes tends to widen. Therefore, there is a possibility that the fastener tape and the element row of the concealed zipper may be exposed to the outside through the gap formed between the left and right elements with a fastener attached.

[0012] The present invention has been made in view of the problems described above, and an object thereof is to provide a fastener-attached product in which the positions of warp threads of a fastener tape are unlikely to shift in the weft direction even if a strong lateral tensile force is applied, so that it is possible to prevent or suppress the fastener tape and an element row from being exposed to the outside; a method of manufacturing the fastener-attached product; and a woven fastener tape used in the fastener-attached product. Solution to the problem

[0013] To achieve the above-mentioned objective, a fastener-attached product provided by the present invention comprises: a pair of woven fastener tapes; and a fastener-attached member to which the woven fastener tapes are sewn with a sewing portion including a sewing thread. Each of the woven fastener tapes includes a fastener tape having a woven structure formed from a plurality of warp threads and a weft thread, and a plurality of fastener elements woven into and attached to a portion of the fastener tape.Each of the woven fastener tapes has a shape such that, in a sectional view orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of the woven fastener tape, an element attachment portion to which the fastener elements of the fastener tape are attached is folded back with respect to a tape body portion of the fastener tape at a folded portion of the fastener tape folded in a substantially U-shape. The warp threads constituting at least one of the fastener tapes include a plurality of first warp threads of the same thickness and at least one second warp thread thicker than the first warp threads. The sewing portion penetrates the fastener tape at a position near the second warp thread and sews the woven fastener tapes and the element with a detached fastener.

[0014] In the fastener-attached product of the present invention, it is advantageous that the second warp thread is formed of a thread-like member, and an area of ​​a cross section of the second warp thread orthogonal to the longitudinal direction has a size that prevents or inhibits a positional shift of the second warp thread in a weft direction of the fabric structure when the fastener tape receives a force that moves positions of the first warp threads in the weft direction of the fabric structure.

[0015] In the fastener-attached product of the present invention, it is advantageous that the at least one second warp thread is arranged at the folded portion of at least one of the fastener tapes or at a side edge portion adjacent to the folded portion of the element attaching portion, and the sewing portion penetrates the fastener tape at a position closer to the tape body portion than the second warp thread.

[0016] Furthermore, it is advantageous that the at least one second warp thread is arranged on the folded portion of at least one of the fastener tapes or on a side edge portion adjacent to the folded tape body portion part, and the sewing portion penetrates the fastener tape at a position closer to the element attachment portion than the second warp thread.

[0017] Furthermore, it is advantageous that two second warp threads are arranged in at least one of the fastening tapes and the sewing section penetrates the fastening tape at a point between the two second warp threads.

[0018] Next, a method for manufacturing a fastener-attached product provided by the present invention will be described, wherein the fastener-attached product comprises a pair of woven fastener tapes and a fastener-attached member to which the woven fastener tapes are sewn with a sewing portion comprising a sewing thread, each of the woven fastener tapes comprising a fastener tape having a woven structure formed of a plurality of warp threads and a weft thread and a plurality of fastener elements woven into and attached to a portion of the fastener tape, the method comprising the steps of: weaving the fastener tape using at least a plurality of first warp threads having equal thicknesses and at least one second warp thread thicker than the first warp threads as warp threads,which form at least one of the fastener tapes; forming the woven fastener tape by weaving and attaching the fastener elements into and to a part of the fastener tape when the fastener tape is woven; and performing a sewing process on the obtained woven fastener tape and the element with a detached fastener, wherein the sewing thread is passed through the fastener tape and the element with a detached fastener at a position near the second warp thread to form the sewing section, and wherein the woven fastener tape and the element with a detached fastener are sewn together with the sewing section.

[0019] Furthermore, the manufacturing method of the present invention preferably comprises using a thread-like element as the second warp thread, wherein a region of a cross section of the second warp thread orthogonal to the longitudinal direction has a size that prevents or inhibits a positional shift of the second warp thread in a weft direction of the fabric structure when the fastener tape receives a force that moves positions of the first warp threads in the weft direction of the fabric structure.

[0020] The manufacturing method of the present invention preferably comprises: disposing the second warp thread at the folded portion of the fastener tape or at a side edge portion adjacent to the folded portion of the element attachment portion when at least one of the fastener tapes is woven; and piercing the sewing thread through the fastener tape at a position closer to the tape body portion than the second warp thread when the sewing operation is performed.

[0021] Furthermore, the manufacturing method of the present invention preferably comprises: disposing the second warp thread at the folded portion of the fastener tape or at a side edge portion adjacent to the folded tape body portion portion when weaving at least one of the fastener tapes; and piercing the sewing thread through the fastener tape at a position closer to the element attachment portion than the second warp thread when performing the sewing operation.

[0022] Furthermore, the manufacturing method of the present invention preferably comprises: weaving the fastener tape using two second warp threads; and piercing the sewing thread through the fastener tape at a position between the two second warp threads when the sewing process is performed.

[0023] Next, a woven fastener tape provided by the present invention comprises: a fastener tape having a woven structure formed of a plurality of warp threads and a weft thread; and a plurality of fastener elements woven into and attached to a part of the fastener tape, and is characterized in that: the woven fastener tape has a shape such that, in a sectional view orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of the woven fastener tape, an element attachment portion to which the fastener elements of the fastener tape are attached is folded back with respect to a tape body portion of the fastener tape at a folded portion of the fastener tape folded in a substantially U-shape; the warp threads constituting the fastener tape include a plurality of first warp threads having equal thicknesses and at least one second warp thread thicker than the first warp threads;and an area of ​​a cross section of the second warp thread orthogonal to the longitudinal direction has a size that prevents or inhibits a shift in the position of the second warp thread in a weft direction of the fabric structure when the fastener tape receives a force that moves the positions of the first warp threads in the weft direction of the fabric structure; Advantageous effects of the invention

[0024] In the product with a fastener attached according to the present invention, the positions of the warp threads of the fastener tape are unlikely to shift in the weft direction even when a strong lateral tensile force is applied. This prevents the fastener tape and the element row from being visible from the outside.

[0025] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below by way of examples and with reference to the drawings. It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the examples described below, and various modifications may be made as long as such modifications have substantially the same structure as those of the present invention and have similar advantageous effects.

[0026] For example, in the following embodiments, a case will be described where a product with an attached fastener is a seat cover with an attached fastener for attachment to a car seat. However, the product with an attached fastener of the present invention is not limited to the seat cover for a motor vehicle, and the present invention can be applied to various other products, such as various daily goods, including clothing and bags. Example 1

[0027] Fig. 1 is a bottom view schematically showing a concealed slide fastener in Example 1, and Fig. 2 is a sectional view along the Fig. Line II-II shown in Figure 1. Fig. 3 is a sectional view schematically showing a relevant part of a seat cover manufactured by sewing the concealed zipper to a cover member in Example 1. In the Fig. 2 and Fig. For a better understanding of the features of the invention, Figure 3 depicts the fabric structure as if it were coarse. However, in reality, considering its function as a woven zipper tape, yarns of the required thicknesses are used as various weft and warp threads, and the fabric structure is dense.

[0028] In the following description, a front-to-back direction is a direction along a longitudinal direction of a concealed zipper or a woven zipper tape or a direction along a sliding direction of a slider in the concealed zipper, and is the same direction as an up-to-down direction in the plane of the drawing of Fig. 1, for example. In this case, the direction in which the slider is slid to close the hidden zipper by engaging the left and right rows of elements is defined as the front side, and the direction in which the slider is slid to open the zipper by disengaging the left and right rows of elements is defined as the back side.

[0029] The left-right direction is a direction along a width direction of the concealed zipper or a direction in which the left and right rows of elements of the concealed zipper are engaged and disengaged from each other, and is the same direction as the left-right direction in the plane of the drawing of Fig. 1, for example. Furthermore, the inner side in the left-right direction means directions in which the left and right woven zipper tapes approach each other, and the outer side in the left-right direction means directions in which the left and right woven zipper tapes are separated from each other.

[0030] The top-bottom direction is a direction along a thickness direction or a front-back direction of the hidden zipper and is the same direction as the thickness direction of the plane of the drawing of Fig. 1, for example. In this case, the direction of the side on which the tape body portion of the zipper tape is arranged with respect to the fastener elements is defined as the upper side, and the direction of the opposite side is defined as the lower side.

[0031] Regarding the fabric structure of the fastener tape, the weft direction (or weft direction) refers to a direction along the weft thread when considering the fabric structure of the fastener tape, or a direction along a direction in which the weft thread is passed through a plurality of warp threads when the fastener tape is woven. The warp direction (or weft direction) of the fabric structure is a direction orthogonal to the weft thread direction of the fastener tape in the fabric structure of the fastener tape.

[0032] The concealed zipper 10 in Example 1 is used by attaching it to a cover part (fabric) 6 of a seat cover 1 for a motor vehicle, as shown in Fig. 3. In this case, the fastener-attached product according to this example is a seat cover with a fastener attached, and the concealed zipper 10 is attached to an opening / closing portion or an opening portion of the cover member 6 constituting the seat cover 1. In this case, the cover member 6 constituting the seat cover 1 is a woven fabric or a cloth and serves as a fastener-attached member to which the concealed zipper 10 is attached with a sewing portion 60 comprising a sewing thread. In the present invention, the size, shape, material, and the like of the seat cover to which the concealed zipper is attached are not particularly limited.

[0033] The concealed slide fastener 10 in Example 1 includes a pair of left and right concealed slide fastener tapes 20, first stoppers 11 and a second stopper 12 disposed at the front end portion and the rear end portion of the left and right slide fastener tapes 20, and a slider 13 slidably attached to the element rows 50 of the left and right slide fastener tapes 20.

[0034] In Example 1, the first stoppers 11, the second stopper 12, and the slider 13 are configured in substantially the same manner as the first stoppers, the second stopper, and the slider used in typical conventional concealed slide fasteners. In the present invention, the first stoppers and the second stopper are not particularly limited and only need to be formed at positions near the front end portion and the rear end portion of the element rows so that the slider does not fall off from the element rows. Furthermore, the concealed slide fastener of the present invention may be formed with a separable bottom end stopper that can detach and separate the left and right woven fastener tapes instead of the second stopper, or may be formed without the first stoppers and / or the second stopper.

[0035] The slider 13 includes a slider body 14 and a cable (not shown) attached to the slider body 14. The slider body 14, the specific structure of which is not shown, has a bottom plate 14a, left and right flange portions having an inverted L shape and projecting from left and right side edge portions of the bottom plate 14a, a center column portion rising from the central portion in the left-right direction of the bottom plate 14a, a guide extending or bulging from the upper end of the center column portion toward the left and right flange portions, and a cable attachment portion provided at the upper end of the center column portion and to which a cable is attached.

[0036] Each of the left and right flange portions is shaped in an inverted L-shape and includes a side wall portion extending upward from a side edge portion of the bottom plate 14a and an upper wall portion extending inward from the upper end portion of the side wall portion in the left-right direction. The front end portion of the slider body 14 is provided with shoulder openings formed on the left and right sides of the center pillar portion, and the rear end portion of the slider body 14 is provided with a rear opening. The slider body 14 is provided with a substantially Y-shaped element guide path communicating with the left and right shoulder openings and the rear opening.

[0037] In the present invention, the slider is not particularly limited in its configuration as long as the slider is shaped to engage and disengage the left and right rows of elements 50 when slid along the left and right rows of elements 50. Moreover, the concealed slide fastener 10 in Example 1 may be shaped to engage and disengage the rows of elements 50 by using a special opening / closing member (also called a "jig") shaped to be attached to and detached from the left and right rows of elements 50, instead of attaching the above-described slider 13 to the left and right rows of elements 50.

[0038] Each of the left and right woven fastener tapes 20 has a fastener tape 21 having a woven structure formed from a plurality of warp threads 30 and a weft thread 35, and a plurality of fastener elements 51 woven into and attached to a part of the fastener tape 21. As shown in Fig. 3, each of the left and right woven zipper tapes 20 is attached to the cover part 6 of the seat cover 1 by performing the sewing processing described below with the sewing section 60 comprising a sewing thread of a sewing machine. In Fig. 3, the sewing section 60 with the sewing thread is marked by a dashed line to facilitate understanding of the fabric structure of the fastener tape 21.

[0039] The fastener tape 21 includes, in cross-section perpendicular to the front-to-back direction of the woven fastener tape 20, a tape body portion 22 forming an outer surface (top surface) of the concealed fastener 10, a folded tape portion 23 extending from the tape body portion 22 and folded in a substantially U-shape or C-shape, and an element attachment portion 24 extending from the folded tape portion 23 toward the back of the tape body portion 22 and to which the fastener elements 51 are attached. Therefore, the fastener tape 21 has a shape such that the element attachment portion 24 is folded back over the folded tape portion 23 toward the back of the tape body portion 22, so that the tape body portion 22 and the element attachment portion 24 are stacked in the top-to-bottom direction.

[0040] The plurality of fastener elements 51 are formed in a continuous form in which the respective fastener elements 51 are connected to each other without being separated by spiraling a monofilament made of a synthetic resin such as polyamide or polyester. Each of the fastener elements 51 includes an engaging head portion 52, an upper leg portion 53, and a lower leg portion 54 extending outward in the left-right direction from the upper end and lower end of the engaging head portion 52, and a connecting portion 55 connecting the fastener elements 51 side by side in the front-back direction. In this case, the upper leg portion 53 of the fastener element 51 is located closer to the band body portion 22 of the band 21 than the lower leg portion 54.

[0041] The plurality of fastener elements 51 are attached to the fastener tape 21 by inserting and weaving the upper leg portions 53 and the lower leg portions 54 into the element attachment portion 24 of the fastener tape 21 in a state where the engaging head portions 52 of the fastener elements 51 are aligned with the tape inner side of the fastener tape 21 when the fastener tape 21 is woven. By attaching the plurality of fastener elements 51 to the fastener tape 21 in this manner, an element row 50 is formed.

[0042] In the woven fastener tape 20 in Example 1, the fabric structure of the fastener tape 21 consists of a plurality of warp threads 30 and a weft thread 35, as shown in Fig. 2 is schematically shown. Moreover, in Example 1, the tape body portion 22 and the folded tape portion 23 of the fastener tape 21 are formed of a plain weave. In this case, a boundary portion 25 between the tape body portion 22 and the folded tape portion 23 is a position where the folded tape portion 23 starts to be folded with respect to the tape body portion 22, or a position close thereto, and is, for example, a position indicated by a two-dot chain line in Fig. 2 in Example 1. In the present invention, the fabric structure constituting the tape body portion 22 and the folded tape portion 23 is not particularly limited.

[0043] The element attachment portion 24 in Example 1 is composed of a woven structure that fixes the upper leg portions 53 and the lower leg portions 54 of the fastener elements 51. Specifically, the woven structure of the element attachment portion 24 in Example 1 is formed by using a plurality of upper fixing warp threads 41 arranged along the warp direction on the surface side of the upper leg portion 53 of each fastener element 51; a plurality of lower fixing warp threads 42 arranged along the warp direction on the bottom surface side of the lower leg portion 54 of each fastener element 51; a plurality of fixing warp threads 43 arranged along the warp direction to alternately press the upper leg portions 53 and the lower leg portions 54 of the plurality of fastener elements 51 together;A plurality of positioning warp threads 44 regulate the positions of the upper fastening warp threads 41 and the lower fastening warp threads 42 in the weft direction; and the weft thread 35 is continuously arranged along the weft direction of the folded tape portion 23.

[0044] The element attachment portion 24 in Example 1 is formed by inserting a fastener element 51 each time the weft thread 35 is passed twice through the plurality of warp threads 30 described above when weaving the fastener tape 21. Furthermore, the element attachment portion 24 is shaped such that the plurality of upper fastening warp threads 41, the plurality of lower fastening warp threads 42, and the plurality of fastening warp threads 43 hold the upper leg portion 53 and the lower leg portion 54 of each fastener element 51, and the warp threads 30 arranged in the element attachment portion 24 regularly intersect with the weft thread 35.In this way, it is possible to individually weave the plurality of fastener elements 51 into the element attachment portion 24 and stably fix the fastener elements 51 and stabilize the positions and the pitch in the front-to-back direction (the pitch between the fastener elements 51) of the fastener elements 51.

[0045] In this case, a boundary portion 26 between the folded tape portion 23 and the element attachment portion 24 is a position between the upper fastening warp thread 41, among the plurality of upper fastening warp threads 41 in the element attachment portion 24, which is located at a position closest to the engaging head portion 52, and the warp thread 30 that does not directly contribute to the attachment of the fastener element 51. In the present invention, the woven structure of the element attachment portion of the fastener tape is not particularly limited as long as the element attachment portion is configured so that the fastener elements can be woven therein and attached thereto, and the type, number, and the like of the warp threads used in the element attachment portion are not limited.

[0046] In each of the woven fastener tapes 20 of Example 1, the warp threads 30 constituting the fastener tape 21 include a plurality of first warp threads 31 having the same thickness (gauge) and two second warp threads (also called regulating elements) 32 that are thicker than the first warp threads 31. The two second warp threads 32 are arranged at positions near the sewing portion 60 with the sewing thread.

[0047] More specifically, the second warp threads 32 are arranged in a side edge portion (side edge region) of the tape body portion 22 adjacent to the folded tape portion 23 and a side edge portion (side edge region) of the element attachment portion 24 adjacent to the folded tape portion 23. Specifically, in the case of Example 1, the second warp threads 32 are used as the warp thread 30 located at the position closest to the folded tape portion 23 among the plurality of warp threads 30 constituting the tape body portion 22, and as one of three upper fixing warp threads 41 located closer to the engaging head portion 52 than the positioning warp threads 44 in the element attachment portion 24. In the present invention, the positions of the second warp threads are not particularly limited as long as they are located near the sewing portion.In the context of the present invention, in the vicinity of the second warp threads and the sewing section means a positional relationship in which there are four or fewer, preferably two or fewer, warp threads forming the fastener tape between the sewing section and the second warp threads, as will be described in more detail below.

[0048] The first warp threads 31 of the fastener tape 21 are made of a polyamide or polyester multifilament yarn. Each of the first warp threads 31 has a fineness of 166 dtex or more and 500 dtex or less, and, for example, in the case of Example 1, all of the first warp threads 31 have a fineness of 330 dtex.

[0049] A flexible, thread-like element is used as the second warp threads 32 in the fastener tape 21. In this case, the second warp threads 32 are shaped to have a larger area in the cross-section orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the warp threads 30 than the first warp threads 31. Furthermore, the second warp threads 32 are shaped to have a cross-sectional area orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the warp threads 30 large enough to prevent or inhibit a positional shift of the second warp threads 32 in the weft direction when the fastener tape 21 experiences a large force (lateral tensile force) that shifts the positions of the first warp threads 31 in the weft direction, for example, as described below, from the sewing section 60 including the sewing thread.In other words, each of the second warp threads 32 is shaped such that its cross-sectional area orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the warp threads 30 is large enough to make it difficult for the positions of the second warp threads 32 to shift in the weft direction relative to the first warp threads 31, even if a large lateral tensile force is exerted thereon.

[0050] Preferably, thread-like elements having a structure other than a multifilament yarn (i.e., a structure other than that formed by twisting a plurality of individual fibers) should be used for the second warp threads 32. In particular, it is preferable to use a knitted cord, a braid, or a monofilament as the second warp threads 32.

[0051] Specifically, in Example 1, the second warp threads 32 are preferably knitted cords. Because the second warp threads 32 thus have appropriate flexibility and softness, it is possible to stably weave the fastener tape 21. Even if the cross-sections of the second warp threads 32 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction are slightly flattened by the second warp threads 32 crossing the weft thread 35, the cross-sectional areas of the flattened portions can be stably made larger than the cross-sections of the first warp threads 31 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction.

[0052] The knitted cord is a thread-like element formed by wrapping a multifilament core yarn with a hollow weaving section of a knitting yarn. The braid is a strand-like element formed by crossing and combining fiber bundles (e.g., fibers). Among braids, a braided cord combining 12 fibers is suitable as the second warp thread (32).

[0053] By using the above-described thread-like elements as the second warp threads 32, it is possible to more effectively prevent the positions of the second warp threads 32 from shifting in the weft direction even when the fastener tape 21 receives a large lateral tensile force from the sewing section 60.

[0054] Next, a method for manufacturing the woven fastener carrier 20 of Example 1 will be described.

[0055] First, the fastener tape 21 is woven using the above-described plurality of warp threads 30 and the weft thread 35. Furthermore, simultaneously with the weaving of the fastener tape 21, the spiral fastener elements 51 are inserted into the element attachment portion 24 of the fastener tape 21 in accordance with the timing of the passage of the weft thread 35 through the warp threads 30, so that each of the fastener elements 51 is woven into and attached to the element attachment portion 24.

[0056] In the case of Example 1, as described above, the fastener elements 51 are attached to the element attachment portion 24 in a state where the engaging head portions 52 of the fastener elements 51 are directed toward the inside of the fastener tape 21. The fastener elements 51 are woven into the element attachment portion 24 by inserting one fastener element 51 each time the weft thread 35 is passed through the warp threads 30 twice.

[0057] Subsequently, the fastener tape 21, in which the fastener elements 51 are attached to the element attachment portion 24, is folded into a substantially U-shape so that the element attachment portion 24 is folded back with respect to the tape body portion 22 of the fastener tape 21. By folding the fastener tape 21, the folded portion 23 is formed in the fastener tape 21, and the engaging head portion 52 of each fastener element 51 is configured to protrude toward one side in the left-right direction (specifically, toward the inner side in the left-right direction when the concealed slide fastener 10 is formed) from the folded tape portion 23 of the fastener tape 21.

[0058] Thereafter, the fastener tape 21 is subjected to a heat-setting treatment in a folded state. The heat setting maintains the folded shape of the fastener tape 21. Thus, the woven fastener tape 20 of Example 1 is manufactured.

[0059] Furthermore, the thus obtained woven fastener elements 20 are configured as a pair of left and right fastener elements, and the slider 13 is attached to the element rows 50 of the pair of woven fastener elements 20. Furthermore, the first stoppers 11 and the second stopper 12 are provided at the front and rear portions of the left and right woven fastener tapes 20. In this way, the concealed fastener 10 of Example 1 is manufactured.

[0060] In Example 1, to manufacture the seat cover 1 with an attached fastener in which the concealed zipper 10 is sewn to the cover part 6, the following sewing step is performed in which the left and right woven zipper tapes 20 are sewn to the corresponding portions of the left and right cover parts 6 of the seat cover 1 before the slider 13, the first stoppers 11 and the second stopper 12 are attached to the left and right woven zipper tapes 20.

[0061] In this sewing step, in order to sew the woven fastener tapes 20 to the seat cover 1, first, a sewing process is performed in which one of the pairs of left and right woven fastener tapes 20 is sewn to the cover part 6 constituting the seat cover 1 by using a sewing machine (not shown).

[0062] In the sewing processing in Example 1, the woven fastener tape 20 and the cover member 6 are placed on a needle plate of the sewing machine and pressed by a presser foot of the sewing machine in a state where the tape body portion 22 of the fastener tape 21 and the cover member 6 are stacked on top of each other. At this time, the U-folded fastener tape 21 is opened so that the angle between the element attachment portion 24 and the tape body portion 22 is increased, and the element row 50 is inserted together with the element attachment portion 24 of the fastener tape 21 into an element guide groove formed in the presser foot of the sewing machine (not shown).

[0063] Then, the sewing machine is operated so that the woven fastener tape 20 and the cover member 6 are intermittently fed in the feed direction of the sewing machine. At this time, due to the continuous guidance of the element row 50 and the element attachment portion 24 to the element guide groove in the presser foot of the sewing machine, the woven fastener tape 20 is fed under the presser foot of the sewing machine while the U-folded fastener tape 21 is opened.

[0064] Furthermore, the needle of the sewing machine is repeatedly raised and lowered with respect to the woven fastener tape 20 and the cover member 6, which are pressed by the presser foot of the sewing machine in accordance with the feed operation of the sewing machine. At this time, the needle of the sewing machine, through which the sewing thread is passed, is pierced at predetermined intervals through the woven fastener tape 20 and the cover member 6, at a position near the thick second warp threads 32 in the fastener tape 21, preferably at a position between the two second warp threads 32. In this way, it is possible to continuously form the sewing portion 60 with the sewing thread of the sewing machine along the longitudinal direction of the fastener tape 21, and to sew and firmly fix the woven fastener tape 20 to the cover member 6 with the sewing portion 60. In this way, one of the woven fastener tapes 20 is sewn to the cover member 6 of the seat cover 1.

[0065] In addition, after sewing one woven fastener tape 20 to the cover part 6, the same sewing process as the above-described sewing process is performed on the other woven fastener tape 20 of the concealed zipper 10 and another cover part 6 of the seat cover 1, so that the other woven fastener tape 20 is sewn and firmly connected to the cover part 6 of the seat cover 1.

[0066] In the present invention, the method and means for sewing the woven fastener tape to the fastener-attached member such as the cover member 6 are not particularly limited, and the woven fastener tape can be sewn to the fastener-attached member using various methods and means known in the art.

[0067] By performing the above-described sewing step, it is possible to obtain the seat cover 1 to which the left and right woven zipper tapes 20 are sewn. Then, by attaching the slider 13 and providing the first stoppers 11 and the second stopper 12 to the left and right woven zipper tapes 20 sewn to the seat cover 1, the car seat cover 1 with the hidden zipper 10 is manufactured.

[0068] In Example 1, the seat cover 1 with the concealed zipper 10 can be manufactured by attaching the slider 13, the first stoppers 11, and the second stopper 12 to the left and right woven zipper tapes 20 to manufacture the concealed zipper 10, and then sewing the left and right woven zipper tapes 20 of the obtained concealed zipper 10 to the seat cover 1.

[0069] In the seat cover with a fastener attached in Example 1, which was manufactured by the sewing processing described above, as shown in Fig. 3, the left and right cover members 6 of the seat cover 1 abut each other in a state in which the left and right element rows 50 are engaged with each other.

[0070] In Example 1, the two thick second warp threads 32, which are respectively woven into the left and right woven fastener tapes 20, are arranged near the sewing section 60 at two positions, that is, above and below the sewing section 60. With this structure, the left and right cover parts 6 can be stably abutted against each other, and the state in which the cover parts 6 are abutted against each other can be stably maintained. As a result, it is possible to conceal the left and right woven fastener tapes 20 (especially the left and right element rows 50) in an engaged state with the left and right cover parts 6, so that the woven fastener tapes 20 can be seen from the outer surface side (top side in Fig. 3) of the seat cover 1 are not visible.

[0071] In the seat cover with a fastener attached 1 according to Example 1, the left and right sewing sections 60 where the woven fastener tapes 20 and the cover pieces 6 are sewn together are provided to penetrate the fastener tapes 21 at locations near the two second warp threads 32. Furthermore, each sewing section 60 is provided to penetrate the corresponding fastener tape 21 at a location between the two second warp threads 32.

[0072] In the present invention, the sewing portion 60 is provided at a position close to the second warp threads 32, which means that the sewing portion 60 is provided at a position where the number of warp threads 30 in the fastener tape 21 arranged between the sewing portion 60 and the second warp threads 32 is four or less, preferably two or less, with respect to the second warp threads 32.

[0073] When a position in proximity is defined, for example, by certain lengths (dimensions), the sewing portion 60 is provided at such a position with respect to the second warp threads 32 arranged at the side edge portion adjacent to the folded tape portion 23 of the element attaching portion 24 that the distance (minimum distance) between the sewing portion 60 and the second warp threads 32 is 2 mm or less, preferably 1 mm or less, when viewed in a cross section orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the fastener tape 21.Moreover, the sewing portion 60 is provided at such a position with respect to the second warp threads 32, which is located at the side edge portion adjacent to the folded tape portion 23 of the tape body portion 22, that the distance (minimum distance) between the sewing portion 60 and the second warp threads 32 is 3 mm or less, preferably 1 mm or less, when viewed in a cross section orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the fastener tape 21.

[0074] In the seat cover with a fastener attached 1 according to Example 1, in which the sewing portion 60 is provided near the second warp threads 32 as described above, the sewing portion 60 is held by the two thick second warp threads 32 arranged in each fastener tape 21 even when a force (lateral tensile force) is applied that pulls the left and right cover pieces 6 outward in the left-right direction to separate the cover pieces 6 from each other when the left and right element rows 50 are engaged with each other. Moreover, the thick second warp threads 32 (particularly the lower second warp threads 32 arranged in the element attachment portions 24) may make it difficult for the folded tape portions 23 of the left and right fastener tapes 21 to move outward in the left-right direction.Therefore, it is possible to restrict or suppress the outward movement of the left and right cover parts 6 in the left-right direction and to make it easy to maintain a state in which the left and right cover parts 6 abut against each other.

[0075] Furthermore, for example, in conventional concealed zippers, when a strong lateral tensile force is applied to the left and right cover pieces as described above, the strong lateral tensile force is transmitted from the sewing sections to the warp threads of the fastener tapes arranged near the sewing sections, sometimes causing the positions of the warp threads to shift in the weft direction. Therefore, the prior art has a disadvantage in that a gap is generated between the left and right cover pieces or between the left and right fastener tapes, and a disadvantage in that the gap is enlarged due to the positional shift of the warp threads.

[0076] In contrast, in the concealed slide fastener 10 in Example 1, the second warp threads 32 in the fastener tape 21 are formed thicker than the first warp threads 31. Specifically, each of the second warp threads 32 in Example 1 is shaped such that the area in cross section orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the second warp threads 32 has a size that prevents or inhibits a positional shift of the second warp threads 32 in the weft direction when the fastener tape 21 experiences a strong lateral tensile force as described above.

[0077] Therefore, in the seat cover with a fastener attached 1 in Example 1, even if the density of the weft thread 35 in the longitudinal direction of the fastener tape 21 is low as in the conventional typical woven fastener tapes, it is possible to effectively prevent or inhibit positional displacement of the first warp threads 31 and the second warp threads 32 in the weft direction when a strong lateral tensile force is applied to the left and right cover parts 6 because the thick second warp threads 32 are provided in the vicinity of the sewing portion 60.

[0078] Particularly in Example 1, since the second warp threads 32 are arranged in the vicinity of, that is, above and below, the sewing portion 60, it is possible to effectively prevent positional displacement of the first warp threads 31 arranged in the tape body portion 22 of the fastener tape 21 and positional displacement of the first warp threads 31 arranged in the element attachment portion 24. Thereby, it is possible to effectively prevent a gap from forming between the left and right cover members 6 due to positional displacement of the warp threads 30, through which the element rows 50 and the fastener tapes 21 are exposed, and it is also possible to make it difficult for the element rows 50 to be exposed between the left and right fastener tapes 21.

[0079] In addition, in Example 1, since the two thick second warp threads 32 are arranged in each of the left and right fastener tapes 21 (particularly in the vicinity of the folded portion 23 of the fastener tape 21), a relatively large distance in the up-down direction from the outwardly facing outer surfaces (upper surfaces) of the left and right cover members 6 to the positions of the left and right element rows 50 engaged with each other can be ensured.With this structure, for example, even if a very strong lateral tensile force is applied to the left and right cover members 6 and a gap is formed between the left and right cover members 6 and between the left and right fastener tapes 21, it is possible to make it difficult for light to enter the left and right element rows 50 arranged under the fastener tapes 21, and thus it is possible to make it difficult for the left and right element rows 50 to be visible from the outside.

[0080] As described above, the seat cover with a fastener 1 attached in Example 1, in which the left and right element rows 50 are engaged with each other and the fastener tapes 21 are covered with the left and right cover pieces 6 so as not to be visible (or so as not to be easily visible), has excellent covering properties even when a strong lateral tensile force is applied to the left and right cover pieces 6. Therefore, the use of the seat cover with a fastener 1 attached in Example 1 can effectively prevent deterioration in the quality of the appearance of the seat cover 1 and the appearance of the seat to which the seat cover 1 is attached due to the exposure of the element rows 50.

[0081] In Example 1, as described above, the second warp threads 32, which are thicker than the first warp threads 31, are arranged as the warp thread 30 located at a position closest to the folded tape portion 23 among the plurality of warp threads 30 constituting the tape body portion 22, and as one of the three upper fixing warp threads 41 located closer to the engaging head portion 52 than the positioning warp threads 44 in the element attaching portion 24.

[0082] However, in the present invention, the positions where the second warp threads 32 are arranged are not particularly limited as long as the positions are near the sewing portion 60, and the positions can be changed depending on the size, use, and the like of the slide fastener. Fig. For example, Fig. 4 shows woven fastener tapes 20c according to a modification in which the positions of the second warp threads 32 arranged in the element attachment portions 24 are changed from those of the fastener tapes 20 according to Example 1.

[0083] In the woven fastener tapes 20c of this modification, the second warp threads 32, which are thicker than the first warp threads 31, are arranged in the side edge portion adjacent to the folded tape portion 23 of the tape body portion 22 and the side edge portion adjacent to the folded tape portion 23 of the element attachment portion 24. Specifically, in this modification, the second warp thread 32 in the element attachment portion 24 is used as one of the two upper fastening warp threads 41 arranged between the positioning warp thread 44 closest to the engaging head portion 52 and the fastener warp thread 43 adjacent to the positioning warp thread 44.

[0084] Since the two thick second warp threads 32 in the woven fastener tapes 20c of this modification are arranged near the sewing section 60, it is possible to prevent or suppress a positional shift of the first warp threads 31 and the second warp threads 32 in the weft direction when a strong lateral tensile force is applied to the left and right cover members 6. Thus, a gap through which the element rows 50 and the fastener tapes 21 are exposed can be effectively prevented from forming between the left and right cover members 6, and it can be made difficult for the element rows 50 to be exposed between the left and right fastener tapes 21.

[0085] In the woven fastener tapes 20c of the modification, the second warp thread 32 in the tape body portion 22 is used as the warp thread 30 among the plurality of warp threads 30 arranged at the position closest to the folded tape portion 23 constituting the tape body portion 22, as in the woven fastener tapes 20 of Example 1 described above. However, in the present invention, the second warp thread may be used as the warp thread arranged in the folded tape portion, or it may be used as the warp thread second or third closest to the folded tape portion among the plurality of warp threads constituting the tape body portion. Example 2

[0086] Fig. 5 is a sectional view schematically showing a concealed slide fastener according to Example 2. Fig. 6 is a sectional view schematically showing a relevant part of a seat cover manufactured by sewing the concealed zipper to a cover member according to Example 2.

[0087] In the concealed slide fasteners 10a and 10b and the seat covers with a fastener attached 2 and 3 according to Example 2 and Example 3 described below, substantially the same portions or elements as those of the concealed slide fastener 10 and the seat covers with a fastener attached 1 in Example 1 are designated by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is omitted.

[0088] The concealed slide fastener 10a of Example 2 includes at least a pair of left and right concealed slide fastener tapes 20a and a slider (not shown) attached to the element rows 50 of the left and right slide fastener tapes 20a. The slider used in Example 2 is shaped substantially the same as the slider 13 described in Example 1. In the concealed slide fastener 10a of Example 2, as in Example 1, a special opening / closing element shaped to be attached to and detached from the left and right element rows 50 may be used instead of the slider.

[0089] Each of the left and right woven fastener tapes 20a in Example 2 has a fastener tape 21a having a woven structure composed of a plurality of warp threads 30 and a weft thread 35, and a plurality of fastener elements 51 woven into and attached to a part of the fastener tape 21a.

[0090] In Example 2, the warp threads 30 constituting the fastener tape 21a include a plurality of first warp threads 31 having the same thickness and a second warp thread 32 thicker than the first warp threads 31. The one second warp thread 32 is arranged at the side edge portion adjacent to the folded tape portion 23 of the element attachment portion 24 in the fastener tape 21a.

[0091] Specifically, the woven fastener tape 20a of Example 2 is formed such that, unlike the concealed fastener tape 10 in Example 1, the second warp thread 32 disposed in the tape body portion 22 of the fastener tape 21 is changed to the first warp thread 31, which is thinner than the second warp thread 32. In other words, the number of thick second warp threads 32 used in the fastener tape 21a of Example 2 is not two as in the fastener tape 21 of Example 1, but only one. The woven fastener tape 20a of Example 2 is formed in the same manner as the above-described woven fastener tape 20 of Example 1, except that the second warp thread 32 disposed in the tape body portion 22 of the fastener tape 21a is changed to the first warp thread 31.

[0092] In the case of the concealed zipper 10a of Example 2, similar to Example 1, the Fig. 6, the seat cover with a removed zipper 2 is manufactured by sewing the woven zipper tapes 20a to the cover parts 7 of the seat cover 2 with the sewing machine.

[0093] In the seat cover with a removed zipper 2 manufactured in Example 2, the left and right element rows 50 are hidden by the seat cover 2 because the left and right cover parts 7 of the seat cover 2 abut each other in a state where the left and right element rows 50 are engaged with each other.

[0094] In Example 2, the left and right sewing portions 60 at which the woven fastener tapes 20a and the cover members 7 are sewn together are arranged above the second warp threads 32 arranged in the element attachment portions 24 (in other words, at positions closer to the tape body portions 22 of the fastener tapes 21a than the second warp threads 32).

[0095] Thus, in Example 2, it is possible to effectively prevent or suppress a positional shift of the second warp threads 32 and the plurality of first warp threads 31 arranged in the element attachment portions 24 in the weft direction when a strong lateral tensile force is applied to the left and right cover members 7. This can prevent a gap from forming between the left and right cover members 7 due to the positional shift of the warp threads 30, through which the element rows 50 and the fastener tapes 21a are exposed.

[0096] Also in Example 2, since the thick second warp threads 32 are arranged in the left and right fastener tapes 21a, it is possible to make it difficult for light to access the left and right element rows 50 arranged under the fastener tapes 21a even if a small gap is formed between the left and right cover parts 7, and thus it is possible to make it difficult to see the left and right element rows 50 from the outside.

[0097] Therefore, the seat cover with a removed zipper 2 from example 2 has excellent covering properties. Example 3

[0098] Fig. 7 is a sectional view schematically showing a concealed slide fastener according to Example 3. Fig. 8 is a sectional view schematically showing a relevant part of a seat cover manufactured by sewing the concealed zipper to cover members according to Example 3.

[0099] A concealed slide fastener 10b of Example 3 includes at least a pair of left and right concealed woven fastener tapes 20b and a slider (not shown) attached to the element rows 50 of the left and right woven fastener tapes 20b. Each of the left and right woven fastener tapes 20b has a fastener tape 21b with a woven structure formed from a plurality of warp threads 30 and a weft thread 35, and a plurality of fastener elements 51 woven into and attached to a portion of the fastener tape 21b.

[0100] In Example 3, the warp threads 30 constituting the fastener tape 21b include a plurality of first warp threads 31 having the same thickness and a second warp thread 32 thicker than the first warp threads 31. The one second warp thread 32 is arranged at the side edge portion adjacent to the folded tape portion 23 of the tape body 22 in the fastener tape 21b.

[0101] Specifically, the woven fastener tape 20b of Example 3 is shaped such that the second warp thread 32, which is located in the portion 24 to which the fastener tape 21 of the concealed slide fastener 10 in Example 1 is attached, is replaced by the first warp thread 31. Except for this change in the first warp thread 31, the woven fastener tape 20b of Example 3 is shaped in substantially the same manner as the woven fastener tape 20 of Example 1.

[0102] In a seat cover with a removed zipper 3 of Example 3 manufactured by using the concealed zipper 10b, since the left and right cover pieces 8 of the seat cover 3 abut each other in a state where the left and right element rows 50 are engaged with each other, the left and right element rows 50 are concealed by the seat cover 3.

[0103] Furthermore, the left and right sewing portions 60 are arranged below the second warp threads 32 arranged in the tape body portions 22 (in other words, at positions closer to the element attachment portions 24 of the fastener tapes 21b than the second warp threads 32). In this way, it is possible to effectively prevent or suppress a positional shift of the second warp threads 32 and the plurality of first warp threads 31 arranged in the tape body portions 22 in the weft direction when a strong lateral tensile force is applied to the left and right cover members 8. This can prevent or suppress a gap from forming between the left and right cover members 8 due to the positional shift of the warp threads 30, through which the element rows 50 and the fastener tapes 21b are exposed.

[0104] Since the thick second warp threads 32 are arranged in the fastening tapes 21b similarly to Examples 1 and 2, it is also possible in Example 3 to make the left and right rows of elements 50, which are arranged under the fastening tape 21b, difficult to see from the outside. Therefore, the seat cover with a removed zipper 3 from example 3 has excellent covering properties.

[0105] In the concealed slide fastener 10b of Example 3, the second warp thread 32 is arranged only in the tape body portion 22 of the fastener tape 21b. Therefore, when the woven fastener tape 20b is sewn to the seat cover 3 by the sewing machine, the element attachment portion 24 and the element row 50 of the fastener tape 21b can be easily inserted into the element guide groove provided in the sewing machine. Therefore, compared with Examples 1 and 2, the sewing process can be performed easily and smoothly.
