Zipper pull accessories

Abstract

The article relating to this design is an accessory to be attached to a zipper pull (slider pull tab for a slide fastener). The article comprises a main body that comfortably encloses the zipper pull, a belt portion for attaching the main body to the zipper pull, and a U-shaped portion connecting the two bifurcated lower ends of the main body. The bifurcated lower ends of the main body and the U-shaped portion define an elongated hole. The main body consists of a first sheet material and a second sheet material. The first sheet material is shaped into an arched cross-section to secure space for enclosing the zipper pull. The second sheet material is shaped into an arched cross-section with a larger radius of curvature than the first sheet material, connecting the left and right ends of the first sheet material and ensuring that the space is secured by the first sheet material. As shown in the "Reference Diagram illustrating the usage," by attaching the main body to an existing zipper pull on a bag or similar item via the belt portion, it adds an accent to the appearance of the zipper pull and allows the zipper pull to be operated with minimal force by placing fingers through the hole.
