Abstract: In a closure for the non-detachable connection of two ends of a preferably textile band by which means the size of the loop formed by the band can be reduced but not enlarged by sliding the closure along the parallel-running band ends, wherein the closure includes an insertion part having at least one insert carrying a tip and an outer sleeve, which has a first opening and a second opening for passage of the band, wherein the first opening is surrounded by a stop for the insertion part with insert and the dimensioning of the second opening allows the insertion of the insertion part with the insert, it is provided that the insertion part has a recess for receiving the insert at its end facing the first opening and the stop of the outer sleeve.

Abstract: A slide lock for joining two ends of a textile ribbon, including an external sleeve having a cavity; and a locking part having at least one tip and mounted in the cavity of the external sleeve; wherein the external sleeve has an opening with stops for the locking part and an opening allowing the insertion of the locking part, locking portions for cooperating with the stops to retain the locking part in the cavity are further provided in the external sleeve.

Abstract: A slide lock for joining two ends of a textile ribbon, comprises: an external sleeve having a cavity; and a locking part having at least one tip and mounted in the cavity of the external sleeve; wherein the external sleeve has an opening with stops for the locking part and an opening allowing the insertion of the locking part, locking portions for cooperating with the stops to retain the locking part in the cavity are further provided in the external sleeve. With the present invention, the slide lock is compact in structure and without active parts, and it is unnecessary to use a special tool and thus convenient in use.
