Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a fabric structure with a slide fastener suitable for products such as clothing, shoes, and bags. [Background technology]

[0002] 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a fabric structure with a slide fastener suitable for clothing, for example, is known from Patent Document 1.

[0003] Patent Document 1 discloses a garment 10 including a front portion 20. The front portion 20 is configured to cover the front side of the wearer's torso. The front portion 20 has a right front body portion 21 and a left front body portion 22, and a first slide fastener 23 that engages between the right front body portion 21 and the left front body portion 22 so as to be freely openable and closable.

[0004] The first slide fastener 23 has a pair of front fastener stringers 23a, 23b and a slider 23c. Each of the front fastener stringers 23a, 23b has a fastener tape 23d fixed to the peripheral edge of the right front body portion 21 and the peripheral edge of the left front body portion 22, and an element member made up of a plurality of elements 23e provided at regular intervals in the longitudinal direction of the fastener tape 23d. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] JP 2019-94587 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] The fabric structure (garment) of Patent Document 1 does not have any members for obtaining rigidity of the fabric structure in the vicinity of the element members and in the stretching direction of the element members. Therefore, when a user uses the slider 23c to open and close the right front body part 21 and the left front body part 22, the peripheral edge of the right front body part 21, the peripheral edge of the left front body part 22, and the fastener tape 23d are likely to buckle, for example, in the front-to-back direction of the front part 20 (i.e., the thickness direction of the fabric body) due to the operating force of the user applied to the slider 23c. In particular, the longer the element members are, the more likely the peripheral edge of the right front body part 21, the peripheral edge of the left front body part 22, and the fastener tape 23d are to buckle.

[0007] As a result, the user had to hold the left front body portion 22 with one hand (e.g., the left hand) to prevent buckling, while opening and closing the slider with the other hand (e.g., the right hand). In other words, it was not easy for the user to operate the slider of the first slide fastener 23 with only one hand, without using the other hand (e.g., the left hand).

[0008] The present disclosure has been made in consideration of these points, and its purpose is to improve the operability of a slide fastener while suppressing buckling of the fabric structure. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] In order to achieve the above object, the first disclosure relates to a fabric structure with a slide fastener, which includes a fabric having a first fabric part and a second fabric part, a slide fastener attached to the peripheral part of the first fabric part and the peripheral part of the second fabric part facing the peripheral part of the first fabric part, and at least one rigid body. The slide fastener has an element member and a slider. The slider includes a slider body and a pull tab. The rigid body is disposed in the vicinity of the element member and disposed along the extension direction of the element member. The slider body is configured so that the length in the extension direction of the element member is a first length. The rigid body is configured so that the length in the extension direction of the element member is a second length. The second length is five times or more longer than the first length.

[0010] In the first disclosure, the fabric structure has a rigid body, which improves the rigidity of the fabric structure in the vicinity of the element member and in the extension direction of the element member. This makes the fabric structure less likely to buckle when the user operates the slider. As a result, the user can operate the slider with one hand, improving the operability of the slide fastener. Therefore, in the first disclosure, it is possible to improve the operability of the slide fastener while suppressing buckling of the fabric structure.

[0011] The second disclosure relates to the first disclosure, in which the rigid body is configured to satisfy a condition expressed by the following mathematical formula.

[0012] [Number 1] E3×I3≧(Pc×4L 2 ) / π 2 -(E1×I1+E2×I2) In the formula, E1 is the longitudinal elastic modulus of the fabric body, I1 is the second moment of area of ​​the fabric body, E2 is the longitudinal elastic modulus of the slide fastener, I2 is the second moment of area of ​​the slide fastener, E3 is the longitudinal elastic modulus of the rigid body, I3 is the second moment of area of ​​the rigid body, Pc is the external force applied to the slider body when the slider is operated, L is the total length of the element member, and π is the circular constant.

[0013] In this second disclosure, the rigid body is configured to satisfy the condition expressed by the above formula, thereby ensuring the rigidity of the fabric structure in the vicinity of the element member and in the extension direction of the element member. This makes the fabric structure less likely to buckle when the user operates the slider. As a result, the user can operate the slider with one hand, improving the operability of the slide fastener. Therefore, in the second disclosure, it is possible to improve the operability of the slide fastener while suppressing buckling of the fabric structure.

[0014] In a third disclosure, in the first or second disclosure, the slide fastener includes an upper stop and a lower stop, and the rigid body is disposed near a position corresponding to the upper stop or near a position corresponding to the lower stop.

[0015] In the third disclosure, the stiffness of the fabric structure can be increased near the position corresponding to the top end or near the position corresponding to the bottom end.

[0016] In a fourth disclosure, in the first or second disclosure, the slide fastener includes an upper stop and a lower stop. The rigid body extends continuously along the extension direction of the element member. The rigid body is configured such that the width dimension of the rigid body is the same from the vicinity of a position corresponding to the upper stop or the lower stop along the extension direction of the element member.

[0017] In the fourth disclosure, the rigidity of the rigid body is uniform along the extension direction of the element member, which makes the fabric structure less susceptible to buckling and improves the operability of the slide fastener.

[0018] In the fifth disclosure, in the first or second disclosure, the slide fastener includes an upper stop and a lower stop. The rigid body extends continuously along the extension direction of the element member. The rigid body is configured such that the width dimension of the rigid body decreases from the vicinity of a position corresponding to the upper stop or the lower stop along the extension direction of the element member.

[0019] In the fifth disclosure, the rigidity of the rigid body at the position corresponding to the top stop or the bottom stop in the extension direction of the element member is relatively increased. This makes it difficult for the fabric structure to buckle when the user pulls the slider down from the position corresponding to the top stop or when the user pulls the slider up from the position corresponding to the bottom stop. As a result, the operability of the slide fastener can be improved and the discomfort felt when opening and closing the slide fastener can be reduced.

[0020] In a sixth disclosure, in the first or second disclosure, the slide fastener includes an upper stop and a lower stop, and the rigid body is disposed from the vicinity of a position corresponding to the upper stop or the lower stop to a position corresponding to a middle portion of the element member.

[0021] In the sixth disclosure, the fabric structure is less likely to buckle in the range from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top end or bottom end to the position corresponding to the middle part of the element member, which makes it possible to efficiently improve the operability of the slide fastener.

[0022] A seventh disclosure is the first or second disclosure, in which the rigid body is composed of a first rigid body and a second rigid body. The first rigid body is disposed on the side where the first fabric portion is disposed. The second rigid body is disposed on the side where the second fabric portion is disposed.

[0023] In the seventh disclosure, the rigidity of the fabric structure can be increased on both the side where the first fabric part is located and the side where the second fabric part is located.

[0024] The eighth disclosure relates to the seventh disclosure, wherein the first rigid body and the second rigid body are arranged at positions that are symmetrical to each other with respect to an imaginary center line that extends in the extension direction of the element member.

[0025] In the eighth disclosure, the portion of the fabric structure where it is desired to increase the rigidity in the stretching direction of the element members can be appropriately adjusted based on the respective shapes and positions of the first rigid body and the second rigid body.

[0026] In the ninth disclosure, in the seventh disclosure, the first rigid body and the second rigid body are arranged at positions that are point-symmetric with respect to a center position in the extension direction of the element member.

[0027] In the ninth disclosure, the portion of the fabric structure where it is desired to increase the rigidity in the stretching direction of the element members can be appropriately adjusted based on the respective shapes and positions of the first rigid body and the second rigid body.

[0028] A tenth disclosure is the first or second disclosure, wherein the rigid body is made up of a plurality of rigid portions.

[0029] In the tenth disclosure, the rigidity of the fabric structure is improved by the multiple rigid parts, while at the same time ensuring a moderate degree of flexibility as a fabric structure.

[0030] In an eleventh disclosure, in the first or second disclosure, the slide fastener includes a pair of fastener tapes, and the rigid body is provided on at least one of the pair of fastener tapes.

[0031] In the eleventh disclosure, similarly to the first or second disclosure described above, the buckling of the fabric structure can be suppressed while the operability of the slide fastener can be improved.

[0032] A twelfth disclosure is the first or second disclosure, wherein at least one of the first fabric portion and the second fabric portion is provided with a housing portion for housing a rigid body.

[0033] In the twelfth disclosure, if the rigid body is housed in the housing, the operability of the slide fastener can be improved while suppressing buckling of the fabric structure, as in the first or second disclosure described above. Also, when the rigid body is not needed, it can be appropriately removed from the housing. Effect of the Invention

[0034] As described above, according to the present disclosure, it is possible to improve the operability of the slide fastener while suppressing buckling of the fabric structure. [Brief description of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0036] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. The following description of the embodiments is merely illustrative in nature and is not intended to limit the present disclosure, its application, or its uses.

[0037] 1 shows the whole of a fabric structure 1 with a slide fastener according to an embodiment of the present invention (hereinafter, simply referred to as "fabric structure 1"). This fabric structure 1 can be applied to various products such as clothing, shoes, and bags.

[0038] As shown in FIG. 1, the fabric structure 1 includes a fabric body 2, a slide fastener 10, and rigid bodies 20, 20.

[0039] In the following description, "top" in Fig. 1 corresponds to the side where top stop 17 (described later) of slide fastener 10 is located. "Bottom" in Fig. 1 corresponds to the side where bottom stop 18 (described later) of slide fastener 10 is located. "Left" in Fig. 1 corresponds to the side where first fabric portion 3 (described later) is located. "Right" in Fig. 1 corresponds to the side where second fabric portion 4 (described later) is located. Note that such positional relationships are unrelated to the direction of actual use of fabric body structure 1 or a product to which fabric body structure 1 is applied.

[0040] (Fabric body) As shown in Fig. 1, the fabric body 2 has a first fabric part 3 and a second fabric part 4. Examples of materials for the first and second fabric parts 3 and 4 include linen, cloth, synthetic fibers, silk, and leather. Examples of leather include natural leather, synthetic leather, and artificial leather.

[0041] The first fabric portion 3 is disposed on the left side of the slide fastener 10. The second fabric portion 4 is disposed on the right side of the slide fastener 10.

[0042] The peripheral edge 3a of the first fabric portion 3 and the peripheral edge 4a of the second fabric portion 4 face each other in the left-right direction. Specifically, the peripheral edge 3a of the first fabric portion 3 and the peripheral edge 4a of the second fabric portion 4 are arranged so as to be spaced apart from each other in the left-right direction with the element member 12 therebetween.

[0043] (Slide fastener) The slide fastener 10 is a member for freely opening and closing the peripheral edge 3a of the first fabric portion 3 and the peripheral edge 4a of the second fabric portion 4. As shown in Fig. 1, the slide fastener 10 has a pair of fastener tapes 11, 11, an element member 12, a slider 14, an upper stop 17, and a lower stop 18.

[0044] The slide fastener 10 is attached to the peripheral edge 3a of the first fabric part 3 and the peripheral edge 4a of the second fabric part 4. Specifically, the fastener tape 11 located on the left side of the paper in Fig. 1 is attached to the peripheral edge 3a of the first fabric part 3. The fastener tape 11 located on the right side of the paper in Fig. 1 is attached to the peripheral edge 4a of the second fabric part 4.

[0045] In this embodiment, each fastener tape 11 is sewn to each of the peripheral edge 3a of the first fabric portion 3 and the peripheral edge 4a of the second fabric portion 4. Note that each fastener tape 11 may be adhered or pressed to each of the peripheral edge 3a of the first fabric portion 3 and the peripheral edge 4a of the second fabric portion 4.

[0046] The element member 12 is composed of a plurality of elements 13. The plurality of elements 13 are arranged on the periphery of each fastener tape 11. The plurality of elements 13 are arranged at intervals along the longitudinal direction of each fastener tape 11 (the vertical direction on the paper surface of FIG. 1). Note that, although this embodiment illustrates an example in which the total length L of the element member 12 is slightly longer than a second length L2 described later, the total length L may be equal to or shorter than the second length L2.

[0047] The slider 14 includes a slider body 15 and a pull tab 16. The slider body 15 is configured so that the length in the extension direction of the element member 12 is a first length L1.

[0048] (rigid body) 1, the rigid bodies 20, 20 are disposed in the vicinity of the element member 12. The rigid bodies 20, 20 are disposed along the extension direction of the element member 12. In this embodiment, the rigid bodies 20, 20 extend in a substantially strip-like shape along the extension direction of the element member 12.

[0049] In this embodiment, the rigid bodies 20, 20 are disposed from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 to the vicinity of the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18. The rigid bodies 20, 20 extend continuously along the extension direction of the element member 12. Each rigid body 20 is configured such that the width dimension W of each rigid body 20 is the same size along the extension direction of the element member 12 from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 to the vicinity of the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18.

[0050] Preferably, the rigid bodies 20, 20 are made of a material having a higher rigidity than the fabric body 2 or a material having the same rigidity as the fabric body 2. Examples of the rigid bodies 20, 20 include resin materials, embroidery structures, patches, tapes, polyurethane (PU), rubber materials, and nonwoven fabrics. Even if a material having a relatively small longitudinal elastic modulus E3 (described later) is used as the rigid body 20, the rigidity of each rigid body 20 may be relatively increased by appropriately increasing the second moment of area I3 (described later) depending on the shape of each rigid body 20.

[0051] The rigid body 20, 20 is composed of a first rigid body 21 and a second rigid body 22 (see FIG. 1). The first rigid body 21 is disposed on the side of the fabric structure 1 where the first fabric portion 3 is located. The second rigid body 22 is disposed on the side of the fabric structure 1 where the second fabric portion 4 is located. In this embodiment, the first rigid body 21 is attached to the first fabric portion 3 by a suitable method such as sewing, bonding, or pressure bonding. The second rigid body 22 is attached to the second fabric portion 4 by a suitable method such as sewing, bonding, or pressure bonding. The first rigid body 21 may be detachably attached to the first fabric portion 3. The second rigid body 22 may also be detachably attached to the second fabric portion 4.

[0052] In this embodiment, the width dimension W of the first rigid body 21 and the width dimension W of the second rigid body 22 are the same size. Note that the width dimension W of the first rigid body 21 and the width dimension W of the second rigid body 22 may be different sizes from each other.

[0053] In this embodiment, the first rigid body 21 and the second rigid body 22 are disposed at positions that are line-symmetrical with respect to a virtual center line CL that extends in the extension direction of the element member 12. The first rigid body 21 and the second rigid body 22 are disposed at positions that are point-symmetrical with respect to a center position Sp of the element member 12 in the extension direction.

[0054] (Characteristic composition) Each rigid body 20 is configured so that the length in the extension direction of the element member 12 is a second length L2. The second length L2 is configured so as to be longer than the first length L1 corresponding to the length of the slider body 15. Specifically, the second length L2 is five times or more longer than the first length L1.

[0055] The rigid bodies 20, 20 are configured so that the fabric body structure 1 does not buckle when the user operates the slider 14 of the slide fastener 10. Specifically, the inventors of the present disclosure have found that the rigid bodies 20, 20 are configured to satisfy the condition expressed by the following mathematical formula (1) based on a general formula for buckling (so-called Euler's formula). In the fabric body structure 1, when the slide fastener 10 is opened or closed, the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18 is a fixed end, while the position corresponding to the top stop 17 is a free end. That is, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, Euler's formula is applied when one end is a fixed end and the other end is a free end.

[0056] [Number 1] E3×I3≧(Pc×4L 2 ) / π 2 -(E1×I1+E2×I2) (1) In the above formula (1), E1 is the modulus of longitudinal elasticity of the fabric body 2. I1 is the second moment of area of ​​the fabric body 2. E2 is the modulus of longitudinal elasticity of the slide fastener 10. I2 is the second moment of area of ​​the slide fastener 10. E3 is the modulus of longitudinal elasticity of the rigid body 20. I3 is the second moment of area of ​​the rigid body 20. Pc is the external force applied to the slider body 15 when the slider 14 is operated. L is the total length of the element member 12. π is the circular constant.

[0057] Here, the concept of the above-mentioned "total length L" is not limited to the total length of an element member 12 extending linearly, but includes the total length of an element member 12 extending non-linearly (not shown), such as in an L-shape or curved shape, and the total length of an element member 12 formed in an uneven shape (not shown) in the direction corresponding to the front and back directions of the fabric body 2.

[0058] In the above formula (1), generally, when one end is a fixed end and the other end is a free end, the terminal condition coefficient (n) expressed by Euler's formula is "1". As described above, the fabric body structure 1 according to this embodiment corresponds to the case where "one end is a fixed end and the other end is a free end". For this reason, the terminal condition coefficient (n) expressed by Euler's formula is omitted in the above formula (1).

[0059] Furthermore, the following formula (2) is derived from the above formula (1).

[0060] [Number 2] E1×I1+E2×I2+E3×I3≧(Pc×4L 2 ) / π 2 (2) According to the above formula (2), by measuring the external force Pc applied to the slider body 15 when no buckling occurs during operation of the slider 14, it is possible to calculate the overall rigidity value of the fabric body structure 1 from the measured value of the external force Pc and the total length L of the element member 12. Furthermore, by subtracting the rigidity value (E1×I1) of the fabric body 2 and the rigidity value (E2×I2) of the slide fastener 10 from the overall rigidity value of the fabric body structure 1, it is possible to calculate an appropriate rigidity value of the rigid body 20 when no buckling occurs. The above "external force Pc applied to the slider body 15" corresponds to the operating force when the user operates the slider 14 (hereinafter referred to as "operating force of the slider 14").

[0061] (Measurement of external force Pc and calculation of stiffness value in fabric structure) Next, referring to FIG. 2, an example of measuring the external force Pc and calculating the stiffness value of the fabric structure 1 will be described.

[0062] In the fabric body 2 to which the slide fastener 10 shown in Fig. 2 is attached, the operating force (external force Pc) of the slider 14 when the fabric body 2 does not buckle was measured by a specified measuring device (see symbol M shown in Fig. 2). In this measurement, the operating force (external force Pc) of the slider 14 corresponds to the external force when the slider 14 is pulled down from the position corresponding to the top stop 17 to the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18. A handy force gauge (for example, product number "HF-50" manufactured by Japan Measurement Systems Co., Ltd.) is suitable as the measuring device.

[0063] In this measurement, three types (types A to C) of slide fasteners 10 were prepared, and each type of slide fastener 10 was attached to a fabric body 2. Predetermined measurements were performed on each of the fabric bodies 2.

[0064] Here, the type A slide fastener 10 requires a relatively light force to operate the slider 14. The type A slide fastener 10 is used, for example, in fabrics constituting children's goods, such as children's clothes, cases, backpacks, and shoes.

[0065] The slide fastener 10 of type B has a medium operating force for the slider 14. That is, the operating force for the slider 14 of the slide fastener 10 of type B is positioned intermediate between types A and C.

[0066] The type C slide fastener 10 requires a relatively heavy force to operate the slider 14. The type C slide fastener 10 is used as a waterproof fastener for use in ski wear, for example.

[0067] The rigid bodies 20, 20 are not attached to the fabric body 2 used in this measurement. On the other hand, in Fig. 2, the position where the fabric body 2 is fixed by a specified jig is indicated by four circular broken lines (see symbol T shown in Fig. 2). In this measurement, a state where the fabric body 2 and the slide fastener 10 do not buckle when the slider 14 is operated by the specified jig is intentionally created. That is, in this measurement, the force with which the specified jig fixes the fabric body 2 is regarded as the rigidity of the rigid body 20 when no buckling occurs.

[0068] In this measurement, one end of the string member S (a member not constituting the fabric structure 1) shown in Fig. 2 is attached to the pull tab 16 of the slider 14, and the other end of the string member S is attached to the tip of the measuring device M. In this state, the slider 14 is moved at a constant speed while keeping the measuring device M horizontal and aligning the widthwise center of the measuring device M with the position of the element member 12. In this manner, the operating force (external force Pc) of the slider 14 when the slider 14 is moved is measured.

[0069] The above measurement is carried out five times for the fabric body 2 to which each type of slide fastener 10 is attached, and the maximum value of the external force Pc is selected from the five measurements. The measurement results are shown in Table 1 below.

[0070] [Table 1]

[0071] In addition, for the fabric body 2 to which each type of slide fastener 10 was attached, the overall rigidity value of the fabric body structure 1 was calculated from the maximum value of the external force Pc and the total length L of the element member 12 shown in Table 1 above. The calculation results are shown in Table 2 below.

[0072] [Table 2]

[0073] For example, for a fabric body 2 to which a type A slide fastener 10 is attached, if the sum of the rigidity of the fabric body 2 (E1×I1) and the rigidity of the slide fastener 10 (E2×I2) is 40,000 Ncm 2 In this hypothetical case, the total value (40,000 Ncm 2 ) into the above formula (1), "E3 × I3" is 13,000Ncm 2 That is, in the fabric structure 1 to which the slide fastener 10 of type A is applied, the strength is 13,000 Ncm 2 By employing rigid bodies 20, 20 having the above rigidity values, the fabric structure 1 will not buckle.

[0074] With regard to the above-mentioned measuring method, for example, when the overall length L of the element member 12 is relatively long, it is preferable to move the slider 14 by 10 cm or more. Also, when the slide fastener 10 is a so-called lock fastener, it is preferable to move the slider 14 while supporting the pull tab 16 with the hand of the person measuring so that the pull tab 16 does not fall over.

[0075] [Effects of the embodiment] As described above, the rigid bodies 20, 20 are disposed in the vicinity of the element member 12 and along the extension direction of the element member 12. The second length L2 is five times or more longer than the first length L1. The fabric body structure 1 includes the rigid bodies 20, 20, and thus the rigidity of the fabric body structure 1 is improved in the vicinity of the element member 12 and in the extension direction of the element member 12. This makes it difficult for the fabric body structure 1 to buckle, for example, in the front-back direction of the fabric body 2 (i.e., the thickness direction of the fabric body 2) when the user operates the slider 14. As a result, the user can operate the slider 14 with one hand, and the operability of the slide fastener 10 is improved. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the buckling of the fabric body structure 1 can be suppressed while the operability of the slide fastener 10 can be improved.

[0076] As described above, the rigid bodies 20, 20 are configured to satisfy the condition expressed by the above formula (1). That is, by providing the fabric body structure 1 with the rigid bodies 20, 20 configured to satisfy the condition expressed by the above formula (1), the rigidity of the fabric body structure 1 is ensured in the vicinity of the element member 12 and in the extension direction of the element member 12. This makes it difficult for the fabric body structure 1 to buckle, for example, in the front-back direction of the fabric body 2 (i.e., the thickness direction of the fabric body 2) when the user operates the slider 14. As a result, the user can operate the slider 14 with one hand, improving the operability of the slide fastener 10. Therefore, in the fabric body structure 1, the buckling of the fabric body structure 1 can be suppressed while improving the operability of the slide fastener 10.

[0077] Moreover, the rigid bodies 20, 20 may be disposed near the position corresponding to the top stop 17 or near the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18. This can increase the rigidity of the fabric structure 1 near the position corresponding to the top stop 17 or near the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18. In this embodiment, the first rigid body 21 and the second rigid body 22 are both disposed near the position corresponding to the top stop 17 and near the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18.

[0078] Moreover, the rigid bodies 20, 20 in this embodiment are disposed from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 to the vicinity of the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18. This improves the rigidity of the fabric structure 1 over the entire length of the element member 12. Therefore, in this embodiment, the operability of the slide fastener 10 can be further improved.

[0079] In this embodiment, the rigid bodies 20, 20 extend continuously along the extension direction of the element member 12. Each rigid body 20 is configured so that the width dimension W is the same from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 or the bottom stop 18 along the extension direction of the element member 12. With this configuration, the rigidity of each rigid body 20 becomes uniform along the extension direction of the element member 12. This makes the fabric structure 1 less likely to buckle, and improves the operability of the slide fastener 10.

[0080] Moreover, the first rigid body 21, which is one of the rigid bodies 20, is disposed on the side of the fabric structure 1 where the first fabric part 3 is located. The second rigid body 22, which is the other rigid body 20, is disposed on the side of the fabric structure 1 where the second fabric part 4 is located. This makes it possible to increase the rigidity of both the side of the fabric structure 1 where the first fabric part 3 is located and the side where the second fabric part 4 is located.

[0081] [First Modification of the Embodiment] In the above embodiment, the width dimension W of each rigid body 20 is the same from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 or the bottom stop 18 along the extension direction of the element member 12, but this is not limited to this embodiment. For example, as in Modification 1 shown in FIG. 3, the width dimension W of the rigid body 20 may be smaller from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 along the extension direction of the element member 12. In this modification, the width dimension W of each of the first and second rigid bodies 21, 22 is configured to taper from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 toward the vicinity of the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18. In this modification, each of the first and second rigid bodies 21, 22 has a triangular shape in a plan view, but is not limited to such a shape.

[0082] In this modification, the rigidity of each rigid body 20 at a position corresponding to the top stop 17 in the extension direction of the element member 12 is relatively increased. This makes it difficult for the fabric structure 1 to buckle when the user pulls down the slider 14 from the position corresponding to the top stop 17. As a result, it is possible to improve the operability when pulling down the slider 14, and to reduce the discomfort felt when opening and closing the slide fastener.

[0083] In this modification, the first rigid body 21 and the second rigid body 22 are arranged at positions that are symmetrical to each other with respect to a virtual center line CL extending in the extension direction of the element member 12. With this configuration, in the extension direction of the element member 12, the portion of the fabric structure 1 where the rigidity is to be increased can be appropriately adjusted based on the shape and position of each of the first rigid body 21 and the second rigid body 22. In this modification, the rigidity of the fabric structure 1 at the position corresponding to the top stop 17 is relatively increased due to the shape and position of each of the first and second rigid bodies 21 and 22 described above.

[0084] [Modification 2 of the embodiment] In the above-mentioned modified example 1, the first rigid body 21 and the second rigid body 22 are arranged at positions that are line-symmetrical with respect to each other with respect to the center line CL, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, as in modified example 2 shown in Fig. 4, the first rigid body 21 and the second rigid body 22 may be arranged at positions that are point-symmetrical with respect to the center position Sp in the extension direction of the element member 12 as the symmetrical point.

[0085] Specifically, in this modification, the width dimension W of the first rigid body 21 tapers from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 toward the vicinity of the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18. In contrast, the width dimension W of the second rigid body 22 tapers from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18 toward the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17. In this modification, each of the first and second rigid bodies 21, 22 has a triangular shape in a plan view, but is not limited to such a shape.

[0086] According to this configuration, in the stretching direction of the element members 12, the portion of the fabric structure 1 where the rigidity is desired to be increased can be appropriately adjusted based on the respective shapes and positions of the first rigid body 21 and the second rigid body 22.

[0087] In this modification, on the side where the first fabric portion 3 is located, the rigidity at the position corresponding to the top stop 17 is relatively increased due to the shape and position of the first rigid body 21. On the other hand, on the side where the second fabric portion 4 is located, the rigidity at the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18 is relatively increased due to the shape and position of the second rigid body 22. As a result, in the fabric body structure 1, a balance is maintained between the rigidity of the side where the first fabric portion 3 is located and the rigidity of the side where the second fabric portion 4 is located.

[0088] [Modifications 3 to 6 of the embodiment] In the above embodiment and the above modified examples 1 and 2, the rigid body 20 is disposed from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18 to the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, as in modified examples 3 to 6 shown in Figs. 5 to 8, the rigid body 20 may be disposed from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 or the bottom stop 18 to the position corresponding to the middle part of the element member 12. In this way, the fabric body structure 1 is less likely to buckle in the range from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 or the bottom stop 18 to the position corresponding to the middle part of the element member 12, and the operability of the slide fastener 10 can be efficiently improved.

[0089] Here, in the modified example 3 shown in FIG. 5, the first rigid body 21 is arranged from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 on the side where the first fabric portion 3 is located to the position corresponding to the middle part of the element member 12. The second rigid body 22 is arranged from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 on the side where the second fabric portion 4 is located to the position corresponding to the middle part of the element member 12. That is, in the modified example 3, the rigidity of the fabric structure 1 is high in the range from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 to the position corresponding to the middle part of the element member 12. In addition, the width dimensions W of the first and second rigid bodies 21 and 22 are the same size along the extension direction of the element member 12 from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17. Furthermore, the first and second rigid bodies 21 and 22 are arranged in positions that are line-symmetrical to each other with the center line CL as an axis.

[0090] In the fourth modification shown in FIG. 6, the first rigid body 21 is disposed from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 on the side where the first fabric portion 3 is located to the position corresponding to the middle part of the element member 12. The second rigid body 22 is disposed from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18 on the side where the second fabric portion 4 is located to the position corresponding to the middle part of the element member 12. The first and second rigid bodies 21 and 22 are configured so that their respective width dimensions W are the same size along the extension direction of the element member 12 from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 or the bottom stop 18. Furthermore, the first and second rigid bodies 21 and 22 are disposed at positions that are point symmetrical to each other with respect to the center position Sp of the element member 12 in the extension direction as a symmetrical point.

[0091] In the fourth modification shown in FIG. 7, the first rigid body 21 is disposed on the side where the first fabric portion 3 is located, from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 to the position corresponding to the middle part of the element member 12. The second rigid body 22 is disposed on the side where the second fabric portion 4 is located, from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 to the position corresponding to the middle part of the element member 12. The first and second rigid bodies 21 and 22 are configured such that their respective width dimensions W become smaller from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 toward the position corresponding to the middle part of the element member 12. Furthermore, the first and second rigid bodies 21 and 22 are disposed in positions that are symmetrical to each other with respect to the center line CL.

[0092] In the fifth modification shown in FIG. 8, the first rigid body 21 is disposed from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 on the side where the first fabric portion 3 is located to the position corresponding to the middle part of the element member 12. The second rigid body 22 is disposed from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18 on the side where the second fabric portion 4 is located to the position corresponding to the middle part of the element member 12. The first and second rigid bodies 21 and 22 are configured so that their respective width dimensions W become smaller from the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17 or the bottom stop 18 toward the position corresponding to the middle part of the element member 12. Furthermore, the first and second rigid bodies 21 and 22 are disposed at positions that are point-symmetrical with respect to the center position Sp of the element member 12 in the extension direction as a symmetrical point.

[0093] [Seventh Modification of the Embodiment] In the above embodiment, the rigid bodies 20, 20 extend continuously along the extension direction of the element member 12, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration.

[0094] For example, as in Modification 7 shown in Fig. 9, each of the first and second rigid bodies 21, 22 is made up of a plurality of rigid parts 23. In this modification, the rigidity of the fabric structure is improved by the plurality of rigid parts 23, and the flexibility of the fabric structure can be appropriately ensured.

[0095] In this modified example, the rigid portions 23 may be arranged side by side along the extension direction of the element member 12. The rigid portions 23 have the same size and shape. Each rigid portion 23 has a substantially elliptical shape in a plan view.

[0096] On the side where the first fabric portion 3 is located, ten rigid portions 23 are arranged near the peripheral edge portion 3a of the first fabric portion 3, from near the position corresponding to the top stop 17 to a position corresponding to the middle portion of the element member 12. The first rigid body 21 is configured such that the number of rigid portions 23 arranged in the extension direction of the element member 12 gradually decreases from the peripheral edge portion 3a of the first fabric portion 3 toward the left side of the paper surface in FIG.

[0097] In this modified example, the first and second rigid bodies 21 and 22 are disposed at positions that are symmetrical with respect to each other with respect to the center line CL. Details of the second rigid body 22 are omitted.

[0098] In the seventh modification, as described above, the multiple rigid portions 23 are arranged side by side along the extension direction of the element member 12. This makes it possible to appropriately adjust the rigidity of each of the first and second rigid bodies 21, 22 in the extension direction of the element member 12. As a result, even in the configuration according to the seventh modification, the fabric body structure 1 is less likely to buckle, and the operability of the slide fastener 10 can be improved.

[0099] 9 shows a configuration in which the first and second rigid bodies 21, 22 are arranged at positions that are line-symmetrical with respect to the center line CL, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration. That is, in the seventh modification, the first and second rigid bodies 21, 22 may also be arranged at positions that are point-symmetrical with respect to the center position Sp of the element member 12 in the extension direction.

[0100] [Eighth Modification of the Embodiment] In addition, in the seventh modification, the rigid portions 23 have the same size and shape, but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, the rigid portions 23 may have different sizes and shapes, as in the eighth modification shown in FIG.

[0101] Furthermore, each rigid portion 23 does not have to have a substantially elliptical shape in a plan view. For example, as in Modification 8, each rigid portion 23 may have a rectangular shape in a plan view.

[0102] In the eighth modified example, the multiple rigid parts 23 are arranged side by side in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the element members 12. With this configuration, the rigidity of the fabric structure 1 can be increased also in the direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the element members 12.

[0103] In the configuration illustrated in Fig. 10, five rigid parts 23 are aligned in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the element member 12 in the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17. That is, in the configuration illustrated in Fig. 10, the rigidity of the fabric structure 1 is increased in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the element member 12 in the vicinity of the position corresponding to the top stop 17. This makes it difficult for the fabric structure 1 to buckle when the user pulls down the slider 14 from the position corresponding to the top stop 17. That is, the operability when pulling down the slider 14 can be improved.

[0104] [Modification 9 of the embodiment] In the above embodiment, the first rigid body 21 is attached to the first fabric portion 3 and the second rigid body 22 is attached to the second fabric portion 4, but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, as in Modification 9 shown in Fig. 11, each of the first and second rigid bodies 21, 22 may be provided for each fastener tape 11. For example, each of the first and second rigid bodies 21, 22 is made of a resin material that is applied to each fastener tape 11 and solidified.

[0105] Even in the configuration according to this modification, the rigidity of the fabric structure 1 is improved in the vicinity of the element member 12 and in the stretching direction of the element member 12, as in the above embodiment. This makes it difficult for the fabric structure 1 to buckle when the user operates the slider 14. As a result, the user can operate the slider 14 with one hand, improving the operability of the slide fastener 10. Although not shown, each fastener tape 11 may be provided with a plurality of rigid portions 23 exemplified in the above modification 8.

[0106] [Modification 10 of the embodiment] Furthermore, as in a modified example 10 shown in FIG. 12, accommodation sections 30, 30 for accommodating the rigid body 20 may be provided on the side where the first fabric section 3 is located and on the side where the second fabric section 4 is located.

[0107] Specifically, in this modified example, one storage section 30 is disposed on the front side of the first fabric section 3, and the other storage section 30 is disposed on the front side of the second fabric section 4. Each storage section 30 is formed, for example, in the shape of a pocket with an open upper side.

[0108] In this modification, if the first and second rigid bodies 21, 22 are each housed in the respective housing sections 30, it is possible to improve the operability of the slide fastener 10 while suppressing buckling of the fabric structure 1, as in the above embodiment. In addition, when the first and second rigid bodies 21, 22 are not required, it is also possible to appropriately remove each of the first and second rigid bodies 21, 22 from each housing section 30. That is, in this modification, each of the first and second rigid bodies 21, 22 is configured to be detachable from each housing section 30.

[0109] Here, in FIG. 12, the storage sections 30 are arranged on the front side of the first fabric part 3 and the front side of the second fabric part 4, but this is not limited to the above. For example, the storage sections 30 may be arranged on only one of the front side of the first fabric part 3 and the front side of the second fabric part 4. Although not shown, the storage sections 30 may be arranged on only the back side of the first fabric part 3 and the back side of the second fabric part 4. Furthermore, the storage sections 30 may be arranged on only one of the back side of the first fabric part 3 and the back side of the second fabric part 4.

[0110] 12 shows a configuration in which the storage sections 30, 30 are arranged in the first fabric portion 3 and the second fabric portion 4, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration. Although not shown, each storage section 30 may be provided in the fastener tape 11 on the side where the first fabric portion 3 is located and the fastener tape 11 on the side where the second fabric portion 4 is located. Alternatively, the storage section 30 may be arranged in only one of the fastener tape 11 on the side where the first fabric portion 3 is located and the fastener tape 11 on the side where the second fabric portion 4 is located. Note that the storage sections 30, 30 may be arranged on at least one of the front side and the back side of the fastener tape 11.

[0111] [Modification 11 of the embodiment] 13, each rigid body 20 may be disposed on both the side corresponding to the front surface and the side corresponding to the back surface of the fabric body 2. Even with the configuration according to the 11th modification, like the above embodiment, it is possible to improve the operability of the slide fastener 10 while suppressing buckling of the fabric body structure 1.

[0112] In this modified example, the first rigid body 21 has a front surface portion 21a, a back surface portion 21b, and a folded-back portion 21c. The front surface portion 21a, the back surface portion 21b, and the folded-back portion 21c are integrally formed. The front surface portion 21a is disposed on the front side of the first fabric portion 3. The back surface portion 21b is disposed on the back side of the first fabric portion 3. The back surface portion 21b is configured such that a portion corresponding to the second length L2 shown in FIG. 1 is located near the element member 12 in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the element member 12 (the left-right direction of the paper in FIG. 13).

[0113] The folded-back portion 21c is disposed at a position corresponding to the lower part of the first fabric portion 3. That is, the first rigid body 21 of this modified example is configured so that, with the folded-back portion 21c folded back in the up-down direction at a position corresponding to the lower part of the first fabric portion 3, the front surface portion 21a is located on the front side of the first fabric portion 3 and the back surface portion 21b is located on the back side of the first fabric portion 3. In this configuration, the front surface portion 21a is located near the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18.

[0114] The second rigid body 22 has a front surface portion 22a, a back surface portion 22b, and a folded-back portion 22c. The front surface portion 22a, the back surface portion 22b, and the folded-back portion 22c are integrally formed. The front surface portion 22a is disposed on the front side of the second fabric portion 4. The back surface portion 22b is disposed on the back side of the second fabric portion 4. The back surface portion 22b is configured such that a portion corresponding to the second length L2 shown in FIG. 1 is located near the element member 12 in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the element member 12 (the left-right direction of the paper in FIG. 13).

[0115] The folded-back portion 22c is disposed at a position corresponding to the lower part of the second fabric portion 4. That is, the second rigid body 22 of this modified example is configured so that, with the folded-back portion 22c folded back in the up-down direction at a position corresponding to the lower part of the second fabric portion 4, the front surface portion 22a is located on the front side of the second fabric portion 4 and the back surface portion 22b is located on the back side of the second fabric portion 4. In this configuration, the front surface portion 22a is located near the position corresponding to the bottom stop 18.

[0116] In this modified example, the back surfaces 21b, 22b are configured such that the portion corresponding to the second length L2 shown in Fig. 1 is located in the vicinity of the element member 12. With this configuration, like the above embodiment, it is possible to improve the operability of the slide fastener 10 while suppressing buckling of the fabric structure 1.

[0117] The first rigid body 21 is configured such that the front surface portion 21a and the back surface portion 21b overlap in the thickness direction of the first fabric body 3. The overlapping portion of the front surface portion 21a and the back surface portion 21b is located in the vicinity of the element member 12. This makes it possible to further increase the rigidity of the first rigid body 21 in the vicinity of the element member 12. The second rigid body 22 is similar to the first rigid body 21.

[0118] Here, in the first rigid body 21 illustrated in FIG. 13, the front surface portion 21a is shorter in the vertical direction than the back surface portion 21b, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration. For example, the front surface portion 21a may be longer in the vertical direction than the back surface portion 21b. Alternatively, the front surface portion 21a may have the same length as the back surface portion 21b in the vertical direction. In this case, it is sufficient that at least one of the front surface portion 21a and the back surface portion 21b is configured such that a portion corresponding to the second length L2 shown in FIG. 1 is located in the vicinity of the element member 12. The second rigid body 22 is similar to the first rigid body 21.

[0119] Although not shown, the first rigid body 21 may be configured such that the folded-back portion 21c is folded back in the up-down direction at a position corresponding to the upper portion of the first fabric portion 3. The second rigid body 22 is similar to the first rigid body 21.

[0120] Furthermore, although not shown, the first rigid body 21 in this modified example may be provided on the fastener tape 11 on the side where the first fabric portion 3 is located. The second rigid body 22 may also be provided on the fastener tape 11 on the side where the second fabric portion 4 is located.

[0121] 13 has a front portion 21a, a back portion 21b, and a folded portion 21c, but may not have the folded portion 21c. Although not shown, the first rigid body 21 may be configured such that the front portion 21a and the back portion 21b are separate from each other. Even in such a configuration, they can be disposed on both the side corresponding to the front surface and the side corresponding to the back surface of the first fabric portion 3. The second rigid body 22 is similar to the first rigid body 21.

[0122] [Other embodiments] In the above embodiment and each of the above modified examples, the fabric body structure 1 is shown to have the first rigid body 21 and the second rigid body 22, but is not limited to this. Although not shown, the fabric body structure 1 may have at least one of the first rigid body 21 and the second rigid body 22. In other words, even if the fabric body structure 1 has at least one of the first rigid body 21 and the second rigid body 22, it is sufficient that the fabric body structure 1 is configured to suppress buckling while improving the operability of the slide fastener 10.

[0123] Although the embodiments of the present disclosure have been described above, the present disclosure is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications are possible within the scope of the present disclosure. [Industrial Applicability]
