  • Publication number: 20220218076
    Abstract: Fastener tape is woven from a weft thread and warp threads both of which are threads with a main attribute. The fastener tape includes: first and second side-edges extending along an elongation direction of the fastener tape to define a fastener tape width; and a tape main portion interposed between the first and second side-edges. The tape main portion includes an identification region woven by plural warp threads and the weft thread interlaced with one another, the identification region having an identification region width which is a partial width of an entire width of the fastener tape width and is a width in accordance with a number of the plural warp threads. Structure of the identification region is configured to allow identification that the weft thread and the warp threads are with the main attribute and/or to allow identification of a sub-attribute subdivided from the main attribute.

  • Patent number: 6516499
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a linear slide fastener capable of maintaining a stabilized condition in which an attachment yarn for attaching a fastener element is never out out by abrasion due to a contact with other object or sliding of a slider. A coil-like or zigzag-like linear fastener element row is attached to a fastener tape with a multi-filament attachment yarn or a sewing yarn of double lock sewing system. Then, synthetic resin material having adhesive property is applied to an entangled portion between a looper yarn disposed on the linear fastener element row and a needle yarn so as to permeate the entangled portion and harden. Consequently, the attachment yarn is coated and fixed with the synthetic resin material, As the attachment yarn, a weaving yarn or a warp knitting yarn is used. The synthetic resin material is applied to the entangled portion or an intersecting portion so as to permeate them.

  • Publication number: 20030000051
    Abstract: In a fastener product made of a synthetic resin such as a slide fastener, a separable fastener and a snap tape comprising an attachment part and an engagement part, at least the engagement part is made of a hydrolysis-resistant synthetic resin. Preferably, the hydrolysis-resistant synthetic resin is polyester having a carbodiimide-based hydrolytic stabilizing agent incorporated therein. In a slide fastener having a pair of fastener tapes and coupling elements fixed to the longitudinal edges of the fastener tapes, they are made of a hydrolysis-resistant synthetic resin material. When the slide fastener further comprises upper and lower stop members, a pin-and-box separator, a pair of reinforcing sheet-like members, sewing threads and core cords, they are made of the hydrolysis-resistant synthetic resin material.

  • Publication number: 20010013158
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a linear slide fastener capable of maintaining a stabilized condition in which an attachment yarn for attaching a fastener element is never cut out by abrasion due to a contact with other object or sliding of a slider. A coil-like or zigzag-like linear fastener element row is attached to a fastener tape with a multi-filament attachment yarn or a sewing yarn of double lock sewing system. Then, synthetic resin material having adhesive property is applied to an entangled portion between a looper yarn disposed on the linear fastener element row and a needle yarn so as to permeate the entangled portion and harden. Consequently, the attachment yarn is coated and fixed with the synthetic resin material. As the attachment yarn, a weaving yarn or a warp knitting yarn is used. The synthetic resin material is applied to the entangled portion or an intersecting portion so as to permeate them.
