Pull tab of slider for slide fastener

Male and female surface-type fastener tapes are unwound from respective spools in a housing and drawn out of the housing through a tape guide swingably disposed in a slot defined in a side panel of the housing. The spools are disconnected from the housing and can easily be replaced with new ones simply by opening a cover of the housing. The tape guide is automatically directed toward the position where the tapes are unreeled off the respective spools. Therefore, the tapes are properly and smoothly mated together by the tape guide as they are progressively passed through the tape guide.

Case for surface-type fastener

A pull tab for a slide fastener slider comprises a body of a transparent, resilient material having a chamber, a display card releasably inserted in the chamber to be viewed from both sides, and an end cap means for closing the chamber. The pull tab body is generally rectangular in shape, and the display card is substantially coextensive therewith so that information on the card in the form of marks or words can be fully viewed.

Pull tab for slide fastener

A bottom stop with an ornamental design thereon has a pair of upper and lower rectangular plates spaced from each other and integrally joined by a connector post located adjacent to one end of each of the upper and lower plates. The upper plate has a pair of longitudinal side flanges having rows of sawteeth, and the lower plate has rows of sawteeth. The bottom stop can be attached to a slide fastener by inserting stringer tapes between the upper and lower plates with an end of rows of coupling elements held in abutment against the connector post, and then bending lateral portions of the lower plate adjacent to the connector post toward the upper plate until the stringer tapes of the slide fastener are gripped firmly by and between the sawteeth on the upper and lower plates.

Bottom stop for slide fasteners

A slide fastener assembly, for a case or folder having a pair of outer walls and at least one intermediate wall or partition, comprises a pair of laterally spaced outer tapes carrying on their inner longitudinal edges a pair of coupling element rows and adapted to be attached to a pair of outer walls of the case, and at least one intermediate tape carrying on opposite longitudinal edges a pair of coupling element rows. Each coupling element row on the intermediate tape is interengageable with the coupling element row on a respective one of the outer tapes. The intermediate tape has a pair of juxtaposed longitudinal flap portions projecting from one face of the intermediate tape and adapted to the attached astride an intermediate wall of the case.
