DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an apparatus for adjusting the waist size of a garment such as trousers and skirts, which can adjust the amount of overlap of the waist portion of the garment.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Using a side pocket of clothes, a slider is attached to the back side of the front body, and a rail with a hooked ridge is attached to the front side of the back body. Apparatus for adjusting the dimensions are known in Japanese Utility Model Publication Nos. 1-24109 and 4-43050.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Utility Model Publication No. 1-2
Since the adjusting device of 4109 is not a mechanism for forcibly locking, when the waist size is tight, the rail is in close contact with the body and does not bend, and since the rail is linear, the slider and the rail are locked. However, when the waist circumference is loose, the rail is easily bent, so that the latch is easily released. For this reason, there is a drawback that it is suitable only for beltless products having a relatively tight waist. The adjusting tool of Hei 4-43050 is forcibly latched, but the latching operation and the latch release operation are performed by a cover plate, the rail insertion is performed by a mounting frame, and the latch maintaining operation is performed by a plate spring. There are many components, and furthermore, components and processing for functionally connecting and linking the components are required, which has a disadvantage of increasing costs.

[0004]

The present invention is based on the idea that reducing the number of parts reduces the number of processing steps.
The functions required for the slider 17 are:
The four functions of maintaining the latching operation and releasing the latching operation are performed, and the device is devised to fulfill this function with a small number of components. Since the hanging frame 1 for the parts performs the functions of rail insertion, hanging operation, and maintaining the hanging operation, the hanging frame is made into a tunnel-shaped box with the mounting bottom plate, both side walls, and the top plate, and the rail is inserted. I made it possible. Also, one end 7 of the top plate 4 in the direction in which the rail is inserted.
Is connected to both side walls 3, the base of the hanging top plate 4 is fixed, the other end 5 is cut off from both side walls, the hanging top plate 4 is set as the free end 5, and the free end is bent into an L-shape. Make teeth 6,
The latching operation and the latching operation maintenance can be performed together. Further, the latching teeth are further bent in the shape of "L", and the latch release ring 10 having a triangular cross section surrounded by the latching top plate and the L-shaped latching teeth.
A hole 9 for inserting and fixing the end of the hole was made. The release of the latching operation is to be performed by the latch release wheel 10 of the part made of the wire, and a U-shaped, trapezoidal latch release wheel is formed along the rail insertion direction, and both ends of the wire of the ring are Both ends are bent inward so as to face each other, and the bent end is inserted and fixed in the triangular insertion hole 9, the opposite side of the insertion fixing portion 11 is used as a latch release piece 12, and the connecting portion between the locking top plate and both side walls is a fulcrum of a lever. It was set to 15.

[0005]

When the rail 18 passes through the hook frame constituting the slider 17, the hook frame, that is, the slider and the rail can be connected and separated. The locking teeth 6 of the locking frame and the ridges 16 of the rail are normally engaged and locked by the function of the locking top plate 4 of the spring material. That is, the slider and the rail are integrally connected. In order to change the connecting position of the slider and the rail, it is necessary to lift the free end 5 of the hanging top plate by releasing the engagement between the engaging teeth and the ridges of the rail. Release operation piece 1
When the lever 2 is pressed, the latch releasing wheel fixing portion 11 is raised by the lever, the free end of the latching top plate of the spring material is lifted, bent, and the engagement between the latching teeth and the ridge of the rail is interrupted. Will be able to move along the rails. When the pressing is interrupted, the free end of the hooked top plate of the spring material that has been bent returns to its original position, and the hook release wheel fixing portion 11 is pushed down,
The slider and the rail engage again and stop.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A slider for adjusting the waist size of trousers and skirts according to the present invention will be described with reference to embodiments. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a state in which a slider and a rail are hooked, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a hook frame of components constituting the slider, FIG. 4 is a rear perspective view of the hook frame, and FIG. FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a release wheel, and FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a washer for attaching the slider to pants and a skirt. The slider according to the present invention includes a hook frame 1 and a hook release wheel 10. The hanging frame is made of a leaf spring material, and a tunnel-shaped box-shaped insertion hole through which the rail is inserted is formed by the mounting bottom plate, the two side walls, and the top plate (the hanging top plate). One end of the top plate 4 above the entrance of the insertion hole of the hook frame is a free end 5 and is separated from the side wall 3 and is not connected. The other end 7 is connected to the side wall, and the top plate 4 is fixed. The top plate is fixed on one side and becomes a free end on the other side, so as to make use of the characteristics of the leaf spring. The free end of the top plate (hanging top plate) is L
It has hooked teeth that are bent in the shape of a letter. Further, the latching teeth are further bent to form a hole surrounded by the latching top plate and the latching teeth for inserting a latch release wheel end having a triangular cross section. The latch release wheel 10 is a U-shaped ring made of a wire, and both ends of the wire are inserted into the insertion holes 9, and the opposite side of the inserted portion (the latch release wheel fixing portion 11) is a rail. And a release operation piece 12 for releasing the engagement of the slider, and a central portion between the release operation piece 12 and the engagement release wheel fixing portion 11 is a fulcrum of the lever. The fulcrum of the lever is a connecting portion between the side wall of the hanging frame and the hanging top plate. The rail is inserted into the slider, the ridges of the rail and the latching teeth of the slider are engaged and latched, and the rail and the slider are integrally connected. When the release operation piece 12 is pressed, the latch release wheel fixing portion 11 rises,
Lifting the free end 5 of the hanging plate, the lifting teeth 6 are also lifted,
The engagement between the ridge of the rail and the latching tooth is interrupted, and the slider can move along the rail. When the pressing of the release operation piece is stopped, the free end of the hanging top plate that has been lifted and bent by the characteristics of the spring returns to its original position, and engages with the rail again to engage.

[0007]

The slider 17 of the present invention has a mechanism for forcibly connecting the slider and the rail by using a spring material.
Separation can be done with only two parts,
The die-cutting work is only for the hook frame, no screwing of parts is required, the number of bending is 10 times, so the number of parts and the number of processing can be greatly reduced, and the bending process is almost all, Easy and easy. Therefore, the manufacturing cost can be significantly reduced. In addition, since the rail is inserted and the rail is locked by the same member, there is no need to stack members having individual functions in order to perform individual functions. Unnecessary thinning is possible, and the waist can be thinned.
