Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] Therefore, there were the following problems. (a) Since the wire was thin and weak, it was difficult to unfasten the jeans button. (b) Since there was no strap, there was a risk of dropping it during use. (c) There was a product dedicated to unfastening jeans buttons, which had a single function or combined two functions of unfastening buttons on shirts etc. and opening and closing fasteners, but there was no product that combined three functions of unfastening jeans buttons, unfastening buttons on shirts etc., opening and closing fasteners, and a fall prevention strap. (d) It was difficult to add other tools. This invention was made to solve these problems. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] Use the stick part to fasten and unfasten the buttons on your jeans. A fall prevention strap is attached to the top of the stick. It combines three functions—fastening and unfastening buttons on jeans and shirts, and opening and closing zippers—with a safety strap to prevent items from falling. Other devices can be attached to the ring. The above describes the fastening and unfastening mechanisms for buttons and zippers. [Effects of the Invention]

[0006] (i) Using the stick part, you can fasten and unfasten jeans buttons with minimal force by applying leverage. (b) Prevent the item from falling by using a fall prevention strap. (h) A single tool that combines three functions: fastening and unfastening buttons on jeans, fastening and unfastening buttons on shirts, opening and closing zippers, and a fall prevention strap. (ii) Additional devices can be attached to the ring. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[Figure 3] Partial view showing the fall prevention strap (2) of the present invention with a length adjuster attached. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0008] The following describes embodiments for carrying out the present invention. (i) Attach the ring (6) to the top of the button stick (1) of the jeans. (b) Attach the ring-shaped fall prevention strap (2) to the ring (6). (H) Attach the button cord (3) for shirts, etc. to the ring (6). (ii) Attach the buttonhole threading tube (4) to the button cord (3) of the shirt, etc. (e) Attach a zipper operation hook (5) to the bottom of the button cord (3) of a shirt or similar garment. The present invention has the configuration described above. When using the present invention, after putting your wrist through the fall prevention strap (2), hold the zipper operation hook (5), pass it through the hole in the zipper pull tab, pull up the zipper operation hook (5), and close the zipper. After putting your wrist through the fall prevention strap (2), take the jeans buttoning stick (1), insert it vertically from below into the buttonhole of the jeans, hook the jeans buttoning stick (1) onto the jeans button, rotate the jeans buttoning stick (1) along the jeans button, and fasten the jeans button. After putting your wrist through the fall prevention strap (2), insert the buttonhole tube (4) vertically into the buttonhole of the shirt, hook the button cord (3) onto the button, and pull the button cord (3) to fasten the button. After putting your wrist through the fall prevention strap (2), take the jeans buttoning stick (1), insert it vertically from below into the buttonhole of the jeans, hook the jeans buttoning stick (1) onto the jeans button, and rotate the jeans buttoning stick (1) along the jeans button to unbutton the jeans. After putting your wrist through the fall prevention strap (2), hold the zipper operation hook (5), pass it through the hole in the zipper pull tab, pull down the zipper operation hook (5), and open the zipper. After putting your wrist through the fall prevention strap (2), insert the buttonhole tube (4) vertically into the buttonhole of the shirt, hook the button cord (3) onto the button, and pull the button cord (3) to unbutton the shirt. The zipper operation hook (5) may be attached directly to the button stick (1) of jeans, rather than to the button cord (3) of a shirt, or the cord may be attached to the ring (6) and the zipper operation hook (5) to that cord. The zipper operation hook (5) can be used as a tool to secure the zipper pull by attaching clothespins or other clips to the zipper pull, passing the zipper operation hook (5) through the zipper pull when opening or closing a fully open zipper, and using clothespins or other clips to hold down the lower garment. After putting your wrist through the fall prevention strap (2), you can also take the jeans buttoning stick (1), insert it vertically into the buttonhole of the jeans, and slide the jeans buttoning stick (1) over the top of the button to unbutton the jeans. Alternatively, you can insert the zipper operation hook (5) vertically into the buttonhole of a shirt or similar garment, hook it onto the button, and pull the zipper operation hook (5) to fasten or unfasten the button. The fall prevention strap (2) may be used without putting it around the wrist. Furthermore, as shown in Figure 3, a length adjuster may be attached to the fall prevention strap (2). The fall prevention strap (2) is not limited to an elastic material such as rubber, but may also be a non-stretchable string or similar material. The material of the button-fastening stick for jeans (1) is not limited, but materials with some frictional resistance, such as bamboo or wood, are easier to use because they do not slip during operation, in addition to plastic and metal. If using plastic or metal, it is also a good idea to add a textured or non-slip finish to the surface to increase friction. The button cord (3) for shirts, etc., is intended to be a string or elastic material, but it can also be made of metal such as wire or synthetic resin. In this case, the button cord (3) itself has a certain degree of stiffness and is easy to thread through the buttonhole, so the buttonhole threading tube (4) is not necessary. Furthermore, the buttonhole threading tube (4) is intended to make it easier to thread the button cord (3) through the buttonhole, so while the material is not limited, a material with a certain degree of rigidity is preferable. Devices such as a jeans button stick (1), a fall prevention strap (2), a button cord for a shirt, etc. may be attached to the ring (6). Other devices or ornaments such as mascots may be attached to the ring (6). The ring (6) may also be a card ring or a carabiner.
