Disclosed herein are a button loop array and a method and apparatus for manufacturing the same, which are capable of improving the manufacturing efficiency of a button loop array that is cut into a plurality of button loops. The button loop array is configured such that a woven elastic yarn formed by weaving a single elastic yarn constructed by superimposing a plurality of spandex yarns is stacked on itself in a zigzag form so that one-side bent portions, lateral horizontal portions, and opposite-side bent portions are formed in multiple layers; the horizontal portions are vertically connected by a plurality of vertical connection yarns by winding the plurality of vertical connection yarns around circumferences of the horizontal portions with; and a plurality of loops protruding to one side in loop forms are each formed on one side of adjacent two horizontal portions between two or more horizontal portions.

The present invention relates to a functional uniform for preventing foreign matters from being introduced therein, while a wearer is playing sports, and the uniform, which is separated into a top and a bottom, includes: the top having a non-exposed lower part having side slits and an exposed upper part having no side slits, the non-exposed part having a back surface portion located on the back side thereof with respect to the side slits in such a manner as to be inserted into the bottom at the time when the uniform is worn and a front surface portion located on the front side thereof with respect to the side slits in such a manner as to be disposed on the outside of the bottom at the time when the uniform is worn, the front surface portion having at least two or more pulling slots formed long in up and down directions on the upper side thereof in such a manner as to pull out belt loops disposed on the bottom toward the outside of the top and first fixing members disposed on the lower side thereof under the pulling slots, and the bottom having second fixing members disposed thereon in such a manner as to correspond to the first fixing members, wherein in a state where the lower side of the front surface portion of the top under the pulling slots is folded, the first fixing members are fastened or attached to the second fixing members of the bottom, so that the lower side of the front surface portion is fixed to the bottom.

A C-shaped connector is provided for establishing a movable connection between a harness and one or more electrically insulating sleeves that are retained during use on the shoulders of a worker. The harness is configured to grip a portion of the worker and thereby provide better anchoring of the electrical rubber insulating sleeves to the worker. The C-shaped connector is configured to attach the electrical rubber insulating sleeves to a single point on the harness, which allows for an increased range of motion of the sleeves. The C-shaped connector can comprise a band of durable material that is longer than it is wide, and being bent in a first direction along its length and being bent along the same first direction along its width. Fasteners can be formed from or coupled to the band of durable material at each end lengthwise and at or about a midpoint.

An assembly for axial fixation of at least one element having an opening formed therein to an article. The assembly includes an anchoring protrusion attached to the article, which includes a distal end and a neck portion, and at least one locking component having a bore disposed therein, the locking component having at least a portion which is at least one of flexible and elastic. The anchoring protrusion extends through the opening in the element and through the bore of the locking component. An overlap region between the opening of the element and the bore of the locking component, is substantially equal to the diameter of the neck portion, such that the element and the at least a portion of the locking component form a locking unit.

A detachable and interchangeable activewear top that includes a sports bra that has fasteners/closures located on the bra band with an overlay flap that makes the fasteners/closures not visible when down but easily accessible when flipped up, and a lower panel that encircles the torso below the breasts and flows downward to the belly and/or beyond and may contain elastic around the top opening of the lower panel as well as fasteners/closures around the top opening that corresponds to the fasteners/closures on the sports bra. The sports bra and the lower panel can be attached, detached and interchanged via a non-permanent fastening system.
