ZIPPER ASSIST DEVICE CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION [0001] The present application claims priority to provisional U.S. Application No. 63/416,134 filed October 14, 2022, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. BACKGROUND [0002] Zippers are a common fastening mechanism on many types of products, including on clothing, luggage, purses, and shoes as non-limiting examples. For the most part, zippers are readily accessible, for example, on the front of coats and jackets and the fly of pants and slacks. However, some zippers are used in less readily accessible areas on the back of clothing, such as on the back of women's dresses and the back of costumes. [0003] Accordingly, there is a need for zipper assist devices to aid a user in zipping and unzipping a clothing garment that includes a zipper this is not readily accessible. It would be convenient for the user if that zipper assist device was portable and could be universally applied to many different types of existing zipper structures. It would also be convenient if the piece of clothing had a zipping mechanism that inherently and permanently incorporated a zipper assist device. SUMMARY [0004] The present disclosure relates to a zipper assist zipper tab that has a built-in functionality to enable a user to easily zip a garment both up and down. The built-in functionality of the zipper tab allows for a tether to be readily attached to and separated from the zipper tab. The zipper can be pulled up (zipped) or pulled down (unzipped) by the tether. For instance, a zipper tab with the built-in functionality to attach to the tether may allow for the functionality of assisting a zipper to be pulled up or pulled down that differentiates from the functionalities of existing zipper tabs. The tether cannot be attached to an ordinary zipper tab but requires a direct connection to the zipper tab with the built-in functionality in order to assist in pulling the zipper up and down. [0005] In some embodiments, a removable zipper assist device for attaching to an existing zipper component includes a base member having a first side comprising a receiving
slot and a second side comprising an at least one hinge joint and a hinged member having a first leg, a second leg, and a cover portion such that the first leg and the second leg extend perpendicular from the cover portion, the first leg further comprises a key configured to engage with the receiving slot when in a closed position, and the second leg further comprises a hinge such that the at least one hinge joint is configured to attach to the hinged member at the hinge of the second leg. The removable zipper assist device also includes a coupling mechanism attached to an upper edge of the base member positioned between the base member and the hinged member when in the closed position and is designed to couple with a loop in the existing zipper component. Also included is a protrusion portion extending through the base member towards the hinged member such that the protrusion portion is hollow from an outer side of the base member having a first magnetic component and a detachable tether having an elongated flexible element and an attaching mechanism comprising a second magnetic component configured to be coupled to the first magnetic component of the protrusion portion. [0006] In some embodiments, a permanent zipper assist device for replacing an existing zipper tab includes a fastening member, a base member having a front side and a back side such that the back side of the base member comprises a depression having a first magnetic component, and a detachable tether having an elongated flexible element and an attaching mechanism comprising a second magnetic component configured to be coupled to the first magnetic component of the depression in the back side of the base member. [0007] In some embodiments, a zipper assist device includes a base member having a coupling mechanism designed to couple with a zipper component. The zipper assist device also includes a detachable tether having an elongated flexible element and an attaching mechanism. The zipper assist device includes a coupling interface configured to secure the detachable tether to the base member. [0008] These as well as other aspects, advantages, and alternatives will become apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art by reading the following detailed description, with reference, where appropriate, to the accompanying drawings.
