AI Technical Summary
Conventional planar fasteners require excessive energy to separate due to strong fixation in all directions, making them difficult to peel apart.
The planar fastener design incorporates a combination of hook-shaped and densely looped surfaces, allowing fixation without shifting in lateral directions but enabling easy separation.
The new design reduces the energy required to separate the fastener surfaces by several to dozens of times compared to conventional fasteners.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a planar fastener that is easier to remove.
Background Art
[0002] A conventional planar fastener has one surface that is fluffed into a hook shape and another surface that is a densely looped surface. By overlapping these two surfaces, it functions as a fastener.
Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0003] The problem to be solved is that not only does it stop the movement of the planar adhesive part of two objects in the front, back, left, and right directions, but it also strongly fixes the two objects in the direction of pulling them apart. Therefore, when trying to separate the two, a continuous force needs to be applied, requiring a large amount of energy. Means for Solving the Problems
[0004] The main feature of the present invention is that when two surfaces as a planar fastener are overlapped, they can be fixed so that the two surfaces do not shift in the front, back, left, and right directions as the surfaces expand, but it is extremely easy to peel off the two surfaces. Effects of the Invention
[0005] When peeling the two surfaces of a conventional surface fastener and the universal planar fastener of the present invention with the same area, the conventional surface fastener requires several to dozens of times more energy.
Brief Description of the Drawings
[0006] [Figure 1] It is a surface including the surface fluffed into a hook shape of the universal planar fastener. [Figure 2] It is a surface including a surface in which a minute part in the surface fluffed into a hook shape of the universal planar fastener is replaced with a surface in which only one surface is densely looped. [Figure 3]This surface of a universal surface fastener includes a surface in which a small portion of the hook-shaped, napped surface has been replaced with a loop-shaped surface consisting of three closely spaced surfaces. [Explanation of Symbols]
[0007] 1. The hook-shaped napped surface 2. Densely packed loop-shaped surfaces
Claims
1. This is a universal surface fastener that attaches and detaches two flat surfaces, but one surface of the surface fastener is made of a surface with a flocked surface that resembles the hooks of a conventional hook-and-loop fastener, and the other surface is replaced with a loop-shaped surface in which a small portion of the flocked surface resembles the hooks of a conventional hook-and-loop fastener is densely packed in only one place.
2. This is a universal surface fastener that attaches and detaches two flat surfaces, but one side of the surface fastener is made of a surface with a flocked surface that resembles the hooks of a conventional hook-and-loop fastener, and the other side is replaced with a loop-shaped surface that has several tiny sections densely packed together within the flocked surface of a conventional hook-and-loop fastener.
