Abstract
Slide fastener slider has groove means cooperating with flanges on individual slide fastener elements to hold the lines of fastener elements away from the slider pull, obviating wear. Additionally, slider is held in place on fastener elements by its engagement in outward openings of U-shaped fastener elements avoiding contact of slider with fabric, also obviating wear.

Primary Examiner-Bernard A. Gelak Att0rneyDallett Hoopes 8 Claims, 7 Drawing Figures SLIDE FASTENER OF THE INVISIBLE TYPE This invention relates to a slide fastener of the invisible type.
In the prior art, there have been a number of patents covering slide fastener structures wherein the lines of fastener elements were disposed on the underside of the tape when viewed from the outside of the garment so that when the slide fastener is closed, there is presented what only appears to be a seam, and no teeth, scoops, or other fastener structure is apparent. While the prior structures have been acceptable with respect to performance, for the most part, their life has been limited by the wearing of the fastener slider as it is moved along its traverse against the fabric of the fastener tapes, the garment itself, or the stitches which fastened the fastener elements to the tape or garment. This wearing has often resulted in the failure of the slide fastener, but at the very minimum, has increased the friction and made more difficult the operation of the fastener. I
It is an object of the present invention, in an invisible fastener to so structure the slide fastener parts that the slider itself engages only the plastic fastening elements, and neither engages the stitches holding the elements to the tape, the tape, nor the garment fabric itself. This is accomplished by the unique structure of the slider combined with the unique structure of the fastener elements.
Other objects and features of the invention will be apparent from the following specification including the drawings, all of which disclose a non-limiting form of the invention. In the drawings:
FIG. 1 is a top plan view of a slide fastener embodying the invention and showing the slider in phantom;
FIG. 2 is a greatly enlarged sectional view of a slider embodying the invention; FIG. 3 is a rear end view of the slider;
FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken on the line FIG. 2;
FIG. 5 is a sectional view taken on the line 5-5 of FIG. 4; and
FIGS. 6 and 7 are modified forms of a slidersimilar to the viewshown in FIG. 4. j
Referring more specifically to the drawings, a slider embodying the invention is generally designated 10 in FIG.. 1. It comprises a pair of webs l2 and 14 of fabric which may be either the fabric or a garment itself, for instance, or. the'regular slide fastener tape. v v, As shown in FIG. 4, the fabric of the web adjacent the margin is turned under and foldsback to present attaching surfaces 16, 18. The fastening elements of the slide fastener embodying the invention are of the ladder type, and comprisea pair of lines 20, 22 attached respectively to the surfaces 16, 18, as shown in FIG. 4. The fastener elements in each line are U shaped and the ends are joined respectively by a pair 'of cords 24 and 26, similar to those shown in the U. S. Pat. No. 3,414,948 to Eric Cuckson and Arthur Jones. As shown, a line of stitching 28, 30 secures the lines of fasteners respectively to the attaching surfaces 16 and 18 with the heads 32, 34 facing each other. i
As shown, the legs of each of the fastening elements more remote from the attaching surfaces l6, 18 are enlarged as at 36, 38 in a direction perpendicular to the adjacent cord 24, 26 for reasons which will appear.
The slider 40 used in the invention comprises a housing having a connected bottom 42, side flanks 44, 46, and a Y-shaped throat 48. Flanges 50, 52 extend inward from the flanks 44 and 46. The top of the slider is open, as shown in FIG. 4, and permits passage of the tops of the fastener elements and the stitches 28, 30, as shown. As shown best in FIG. 4, groove means 54, 56 are formed in the bottom 42 of the slider adjacent the flanks 44, 46 and flare outwardly as shown in FIG. 5, to complement the Y shape of the throat 48.
Extending upwardly from the bottom 42 of the slider at the front end thereof is a post 58 to which is attached the slider pull tab 60 (FIG. 1).
In practice, the slider may be made of two die-cast parts, one comprising the lower part 42a of the bottom, the side flanks 44 and 46, and the flanges 50, 52, the other comprising the raised floor 42b which is secured to the lower floor 420 as by welding, and the upwardly extending post 58.
In use, it will be seen that the slider 40 is installed on the lines of slide fastener elements with the tongues or flanges 50, 52 extending inward of the opening of the U of each of the fastener elements. This secures the slider to the lines of fasteners without the need for the wrapping of the side flanks around the top of the fastener elements and around portions of the fabric. Thus, the connection between the slider and the lines of fastener elements is made irrespective of the thickness of the fabric, and as the slider moves, there is no wearing of the slider against the fabric.
Additionally, it will appear that the groove means 54, 56 receive the enlargements 36, 38 on the outward legs of the U-shaped element and the abutment of the inwardly facing shoulders 60, 62 against the outwardly facing ledges in the bottom part 42b hold the slide fastener lines out against the flanks 44, 46 of the slider. There is thus no need for the post 58 to hold the ele ments out against the flanks in the conventional manner. Because of this, as is best shown in FIG. 1, there is no contact between the post 58 and either the fabric layers 12, 14 or the heads 32,34 of the fastener ele ments. FIGS. 6 and 7 show modified forms of the invention in which the groove means 54, 56 may take the form of grooves in the flange 54a, 56a in FIG. '6 ',.or both the flange and the bottom as at 54a, 56a, 54, 56.
In the modification of FIG. 6, the primed .form of the referenced numeral-'from FIG. 4 is used'to: designate corresponding parts and in. the modified form of FIG. 7, the double primed'form ofthe referencednu meral is used to'designate corresponding parts to those in FIG. 4. j w I It will thus be seen that under the present invention the slider contacts only the plastic parts of the U- shaped slide fastener elements. The flanks of the slider do not contact the fabric,'nor does the post 58 contact the fabric. There is thus not only greatly improved op-' erability of the slider but there is also less chance of wear of the stitches of the fabric of the tape, or garment, and the operability of the slider does not depend to any extent on the thickness of the-fabric of the garment or tape.
While I'have described the invention in a few forms, it is susceptible of many changes and the invention may be described by the following claim language:
