- a separable fastener 10 embodying this invention is there shown employed as a back closure for detachably and adjustably connecting body encircling parts 11 and 12 of a brassiere.
- Fastener 10 is shown to comprise mutually engageable female and male elements 13 and 14 which are respectively attached to brassiere parts 11 and 12 by way of tapes or webs 15 and 16.
- Female element 13 is of strip-like configuration and is preferably formed of a plastic material, such as, polypropylene, linear polyethylene, nylon, polyurethane or the like, which is either flexible in the thickness employed, or suitably plasticized, so as to be capable of bowing or flexing in the longitudinal direction.
- Element 13 has generally flat inner and outer faces 17 and 18 (FIG. 4), and the outer face 18 of the plastic element may have bonded thereto a thin layer of textile fabric, as indicated at 19 (FIGS. 3 and 4).
- At least one aperture 20 is punched through element 13 so as to open at faces 17 and 18.
- female element 13 preferably has a plurality of the apertures 20 formed therein at locations that are spaced apart along such element, and each aperture 20 is preferably in the form of a transversely elongated slot presenting opposed edges 21 and 22 (FIG. 4) extending transversely with respect to the longitudinal axis of the strip-like element 13 and lying in planes substantially perpendicular to the planes of the faces 17 and 18.
- Female element 13 may be secured at its periphery to tape or web 15 by stitching 23 (FIGS. 1 and 2) as shown, or by being bonded directly to tape 15 by heat and pressure or by a suitable adhesive.
- the entire tape 15, or at least a part thereof between element 13 and brassiere part 11, is preferably longitudinally elastic so that, when elements 13 and 14 of fastener 10 are mutually engaged, the distance between the ends of brassiere parts 11 and 12 thus connected at the back of the garment is resiliently extensible.
- Male element 14 is formed of a plastic material which is preferably relatively rigid, for example, superpolyoxymethylene having a molecular weight of at least 15,000, and which is available commercially under the trade name Delrin. As shown on FIGS. 2, 3, and 4, male element 14 is generally Z-shaped in cross-section to define a body portion 24 having shoulders 25 and 26 along the opposite sides thereof, and relatively offset projecting portions 27 and 28 extending beyond shoulders 25 and 26 at the opposite sides of body portion 24.
- Body portion 24 is dimensioned to be insertable in any selected one of the apertures 20 through the opening of the latter at outer face 18 of the female element and, when body portion 24 is inserted in an aperture 20, shoulders 25 and 26 along the opposite sides of the body portion abut the opposed edges 21 and 22, respectively, of the aperture, as shown on FIG. 3. Further, when body portion 24 is disposed in an aperture 20, projecting portion 27 of the male element lies against inner face 17 of the female element, that is, between female element 13 and the underlying portion of tape 15, as shown on FIG. 3, and the other projecting portion 28 which is relatively offset with respect to projecting portion 27 lies adjacent outer face 18 of the female element and constitutes the means by which male element 14 is attached to tape 16.
- projecting portion 28 has wings 29 (FIG. 5) extending laterally beyond body portion 24, and tape 16 is formed with a bound buttonhole or lateral opening 30 (FIG. 6) through which body portion 24 and projecting portion 27 of the male element can extend.
- tape 16 is doubled-over about a fold line extending through opening 30 and then secured to itself, as by a lateral line of stitching 31 (FIG. 1), whereby wings 29 of the male element are retained between the fold of tape 16 and stitching 31 for attaching male element 14 to tape 16.
- the male element 14' of the separable fastener is generally similar to the previously described male element 14 and differs therefrom only in that the laterally enlarged projecting portion 28' which extends from the body portion 24' in opposition to the projecting portion 27' and in offset relation to the latter has a transverse slot 32 through which the tape 16' may be looped for attaching the male element of the fastener to a corresponding part of the garment.
- projecting portion 27 or 27' constitutes a guiding tongue for facilitating the insertion and removal of the body portion with respect to a selected aperture 20.
- shoulder 26 of the body portion which is adjacent the projecting portion 28 of the male element is undercut so as to have a lip 33 along the edge thereof which is remote from projecting portion 28 and which engages in back of inner face 17 of the female element when body portion 24 is fully engaged in an aperture 20, as shown on FIG. 3.
- the lip 33 is effective to yield'ably resist outward removal of body portion 24 from the aperture 20.
- male element 14 When it is desired to disengage male element 14 from female element 13, male element 14 is rocked outwardly in the direction of the arrow 35 on FIG. 4 so that lip 33 is pressed outwardly past edge 22 of the aperture and finally freed beyond outer surface 18 of the female element. When lip 33 is thus freed, male element 14 can be withdrawn, in its inclined position, in the direction of the arrow 36 on FIG. 4.
- female element 13 may be provided with as many spaced apart apertures as desired to permit adjustment of the distance between the body encircling parts 11 and 12 of the brassiere when elements 13 and 14 are mutually engaged.
- a separable fastener 10a constituted by a female element 13a and a male element 14a generally similar to the previously described elements 13 and 14, respectively, can be employed for detachably connecting a garter grip 37 to a Suspender tab 15a which is, at least in part ,of a longitudinally elastic tape or webbing, and which depends from a ladys foundation garment indicated at 38.
- the male element 14a of the separable fastener may be molded or otherwise formed integrally with the frame 39 of garter grip 37 so as to constitute the means by which such garter grip is detachably connected to Suspender tab 15a at any of the selected positions along the latter defined by the apertures spaced apart in female element 13a.
- a separable fastener for detachably connecting two parts of an article of wearing apparel and for transmitting a longitudinally applied force from one to the other of said parts: comprising a female element of plastic resilient material adapted for attachment to one of the parts and having generally flat inner and outer faces in planes sub stantially parallel to the direction of the force to be transmitted, said female element defining at least one aperture extending therethrough to open at said faces, said aperture presenting opposed edges extending transversely with respect to said direction of the force and lying in planes substantially perpendicular to said planes of the faces; and a male element of plastic material which is generally Z-shaped in cross-section to define a body portion insertable into said aperture through the opening thereof at said outer face and having shoulders along the opposite sides of the body portion having parts thereof spaced apart substantially equal to the spacing of said opposed edges of the aperture to abut said opposed edges of the aperture and thereby prevent movement of said male element relative to said female element in said direction of the force, and relatively offset, first and second projecting portions extending beyond said
