  • 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: 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.

  • Patent number: 5983465
    Abstract: A colorful fastener tape for a slide fastener chain and a fastener stringer comprising such a fastener tape have an ornamental portion arranged along an inner longitudinal edge of the fastener tape and formed by multicolored yarns. A multicolored cord or a number of multicolored yarns are woven or knitted into the fastener tape 1 along the inner longitudinal edge to produce a thickened reinforced section, thus producing an ornamental portion such as of rainbow colored. Fastener elements of various types may be fitted to the reinforced section of the fastener tape of the a fastener stringer, thus the fastener stringer has a beautiful ornamental portion. When multicolored yarns are used for several warps or warp knitting yarns located adjacent to the reinforced section, a broadened ornamental portion can be produced to enhance the color effect of the fastener stringer that may be used for a dress to improve its color effect.

  • Patent number: 5755014
    Abstract: A separable bottom stop assembly of thermoplastic resin comprising a box molded on a lower end of one of opposite slide fastener stringers and an insert pin molded on a lower end of the other fastener stringer. The box has a straight insert-pin receiving hole off to one side. An outer wall of the insert-pin hole has a side slit having at its lower end a stopper. The insert pin is taper toward its lower end and has a straight tape-side edge. A guide ridge is integrally formed with the insert pin with a thin portion between them. When the insert pin is inserted into the insert-pin hole of the box, a lower end of the guide ridge slides along edges of the side slit, guiding insertion of the insert pin to facilitate smooth insertion without exerting load on the insert pin.

  • Patent number: 5234507
    Abstract: An anti-oxidation agent for preventing oxidation of a stainless steel strip during continuous annealing comprising a colloidal inorganic substance which can be crystallized at a temperature not higher than 1300.degree. C. at least one compound having a melting point not higher than 1300.degree. C., selected from the group consisting of silicates, borates and phosphates, a dispersion agent, and the balance substantially water. The anti-oxidation agent is applied to the surface of the stainless steel strip. During the annealing, the anti-oxidation agent enhances the heat absorption so that the stainless steel strip temperature is elevated to the annealing temperature in a short time. The anti-oxidation agent on the strip surface forms a film of a fine structure which keeps the strip surface away from oxidizing components of the annealing atmosphere so as to suppress generation of oxide scale. The film is easily separated due to thermal contraction in the course of the cooling after the annealing.
