[

Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, the zipper 110 means an openable and closable member made of two pieces of cloth, tape, As described above, since the zipper 110 is a member used in various fields such as clothes, bags, miscellaneous goods, etc., it can be provided in a storage space such as clothes, bags, etc. having various materials such as cloth, tape and leather. That is, the zipper 110 is provided in various storage spaces such as clothes, bags, and the like, and can open or close the storage space, so that various objects can be safely stored in clothes, nappies, and the like. The edges of the zipper 110 are formed to engage with each other in a slide manner. The zipper 110 may be made of various materials such as metal or plastic.

On the other hand, a zipper slider 112 may be formed at the edge of the zipper 110 so as to engage the zipper 110 in a sliding manner, that is, to open and close the zipper 110 conveniently. The zipper slider 112 may be made of various materials such as metal and plastic, but may be made of the same material as the zipper 110 in general. The zipper slider 112 is slidably inserted into the zipper 110 so that the zipper slider 112 can be engaged or disengaged as the zipper slider 112 slides to open or close the zipper 110.

The stoppers 114 and 116 may be provided at both ends of the zipper 110 in the longitudinal direction. The stoppers 114 and 116 may be provided at the both ends of the zipper 110, that is, the sliding start point (closed state) and the end point (open state) of the zipper 110, respectively. The stopper 114 that makes the zipper 110 completely closed is the closed stopper 114 and the stopper 116 that makes the zipper 110 completely open is the open stopper 116 .

At this time, among the stoppers 114 and 116 provided at both ends of the zipper 110, the open stopper 116 provided at the opening end point of the zipper 110 (that is, the fully open position) . Generally, the zipper slider 112 is made of metal, which may be magnetic or subject to magnetic forces. When the zipper slider 112 is moved from the closed stopper 114 to the open stopper 116, the open stopper 116 and the zipper slider 112, which are made of a magnetic conductor, do not fall off. That is, by providing the open stopper 116 as a conductor, the zipper slider 112 maintains the open state of the zipper 110 in a state of being in contact with the open stopper 116, The zipper slider 112 can be stably positioned at the position of the stopper 116 until the zipper slider 112 is moved to the closed stopper 114 side by applying an external force to the zipper slider 112. Since the open stopper 116 functions as a switch for operating the illumination unit 120 in contact with the illuminating unit 120 to be described later, it is preferable that the open stopper 116 is provided with a magnetic conductor. That is, as described later, the illuminating unit 120 can be turned on only when the zipper slider 112 is in contact with the open stopper 116. [

The lighting unit 120 may be provided at one side of the zipper 110. In other words, it may be provided at the lower end of the zipper slider 112 provided on the zipper 110. The lighting unit 120 is integrally formed with the zipper slider 112 and attached to the lower side of the zipper slider 112 so that when the zipper apparatus 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is used in a bag, .

The lighting unit 120 may be turned on or off according to whether the zipper 110 and the open stopper 116 are in contact with each other. The lighting unit 120 may include an illumination unit 122, a battery unit 124, and a lighting terminal 126. Since the size of the zipper slider 112 sliding on the zipper 110 is not large, the size and shape of the illumination portion 120 provided on the zipper slider 112 are different depending on the shape of the zipper slider 112 . The illumination 122 of the illumination unit 120 may be provided as an LED illumination. LED lighting has low consumption power, small size, and is capable of generating enough light compared to small size. Since the illumination 122 according to one embodiment of the present invention is attached to the lower end portion of the zipper slider 112 of the zipper 110, it is preferable that the illumination 122 is formed as a long rod in the longitudinal direction. The size, shape, and number of the lights 122 may be implemented differently depending on the field of use of the zipper 100.

The battery member 124 of the illumination unit 120 may be provided on one side of the zipper 110 to supply power to turn on the illumination 122. [ The battery member 124 may be provided in the form of a general pre-mercury battery or a coin-type battery. However, the present invention is not limited to coin-type batteries.

When the battery member 124 is provided as a coin type battery, the battery member 124 may be provided below the open stopper 116 or may be integrally provided inside the open stopper 116. When the battery member 124 is provided on the open stopper 116 side, the illumination 122 and the battery member 124 are provided in a state of being separated from each other. When the zipper slider 112 comes into contact with the open stopper 116 The lamp 122 and the battery member 124 are electrically energized and electricity can be supplied to the lamp 122. [ Therefore, when the zipper slider 112 and the open stopper 116 are separated from each other, the power of the battery member 124 is not supplied to the illumination 122. [

Also, the battery member 124 may be formed integrally with the zipper slider 112, that is, with the zipper slider 112.

On the other hand, the illumination member 122 and the battery member 124 are not necessarily provided separately. The lighting member 122 and the battery member 124 may be integrally formed with the zipper slider 112 and a switch terminal (not shown) may be provided under the open stopper 116 to contact the battery member 124. The battery member 124 and the light 122 may be electrically connected only when the battery member 124 is in contact with the switch terminal.

In addition, instead of using the coin type battery as the battery member 124, a fiber type battery (preferably a fibrous lithium ion secondary battery capable of charging and discharging) may be used. In other words, in the case of using the fibrous battery as the battery member 124, a fibrous battery may be formed on the fiber portion forming the zipper 110 to supply electricity to the light 122. The shape of the battery member 124 may be different according to the application of the zipper 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The illumination terminal 126 of the illumination unit 120 may be provided on one side of the illumination unit 122. Specifically, the lighting terminal 126 is made of a conductive material, and may be provided on one side of the lighting 122, and may electrically connect the lighting 122 and the battery member 124. The illumination terminal 126 is a connection terminal, and may include a plus (+) terminal and a minus (-) terminal, respectively. The positive terminal of the illumination terminal 126 is connected to the positive terminal of the battery member 124 and the negative terminal of the illumination terminal 126 is electrically connected to the negative terminal of the battery member 124. In other words, when the positive / negative connection terminal of the lighting terminal 126 and the positive / negative terminal of the battery member 124 are in contact with each other and are electrically connected, the lighting 122 is turned on, that is, When the positive / negative terminal of the lighting terminal 126 is disconnected from the positive / negative terminal of the battery member 124, the light 112 is turned off, that is, turned off.

Here, the zipper apparatus 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention may further include an illumination mounting member 130.

The illumination mounting member 130 is for connecting the zipper slider 112 to the illumination 122 and for preventing an electrical short between the illumination 122 and the zipper slider 112. Specifically, one surface of the illumination mounting member 130 may be connected to the lower surface of the zipper slider 112, and the other surface may be connected to the illumination 122. The illumination mounting member 130 is preferably formed of a nonconductive material that is not conductive, unlike the zipper slider 112 and the open stopper 116. [ As described above, the illumination mounting member 130 is stably connected to the lower end of the zipper slider 112 with the illumination 122. If the lighting mounting member 130 is formed of a conductive material such as a metal rather than a nonconductive material, the lighting unit 120 may be electrically connected or short-circuited to the zipper slider 112 formed of a metal or the like conductor, The light 122 may be electrically connected or short-circuited with the light 122 of the light source 122, resulting in malfunction. In other words, when the light mounting member 130 and the zipper slider 112 are formed of conductors, the electric power of the battery member 124 to be supplied to the light 122 does not flow into the light 122, 130 and the zipper slider 112 so that the illumination light 122 is not turned on or the life of the battery member 124 can be shortened. In order to prevent such a problem, the lighting mounting member 130 is preferably formed of a non-conductive material.

The zipper slider 112 is moved to the position of the open stopper 116 and the contact portion 117 of the open end stopper 116 is brought into contact with the illumination terminal 126. As a result, It is possible to prevent the battery member 124 and the zipper slider 112 from being electrically connected or short-circuited. However, in the case where the zipper slider 112 is formed of a nonconductive material such as plastic, the illumination mount member 130 may be omitted and the illumination 122 may be directly attached to the zipper slider 112. When the zipper slider 112 is formed of a nonconductive body, it is not necessary to provide the lighting mount member 130 because there is no possibility that the illumination light 122 and the zipper slider 112 are electrically connected or short-circuited.

On the other hand, when the illumination mounting member 130 is provided, the illumination terminal 126 may be provided on one side of the illumination mounting member 130. It is preferable to form the illumination terminal 126 on one side of the illumination 122 if the illumination 122 is attached directly to the zipper slider 112 without the illumination mounting member 130.

The open stopper 116 may be formed with a battery case (not shown) for receiving the battery member 124. The battery case may be provided with connection tabs (not shown) connected to the positive and negative terminals of the battery member 124. The shape of the connection tabs is not limited to the connection tabs of the case in which the conventional coin- Lt; / RTI >

Also, the battery case may be provided separately from the open stopper 116, or may be formed inside the open stopper 116. That is, the open stopper 116 and the battery case may be integrally formed.

The lighting 122 of the zipper device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is preferably turned on only in a dark place or after sunset. That is, it is necessary to increase the lifetime of the battery member 124 by blocking the electrical connection between the illumination light 122 and the battery member 124 in an environment (such as a day or a bright place) in which the illumination 122 does not need to be turned on . 3, when the zipper 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention detects time or external illuminance and the zipper slider 112 contacts the open stopper 116 And a battery control unit 140 for disconnecting the electrical connection.

The battery controller 140 may include a time sensor (not shown) for sensing or determining time, an illuminance sensor (not shown) for sensing or determining illuminance around the zipper 100, a time sensor or an illuminance sensor And a switch (S / W) The switch 142 may be provided in an open stopper 116 or a battery case in which the battery member 124 is mounted and may intercept the electrical connection between the battery member 124 and the light 122. For example, when the time sensor of the battery control unit 140 detects that the time is in the daytime, or when the illuminance sensor senses an illuminance value that does not require illumination, the battery control unit 140 controls the switch 142 to illuminate 122 are not turned on so that the life of the battery member 124 can be prevented from shortening. For reference, the switch 142 may be provided with a mechanical switch or an electrical switch, i.e., a circuit or the like.
