A modular linking system allows bags, pouches, and other items to be connected together quickly and securely while providing the ability to remotely disconnect the two items. The modular linking system includes a post assembly and a receiver assembly, each of which includes a geared component to permit variously angled, non-rotational engagement therebetween. The receiver assembly includes a locking member that is resiliently moveable to an unlocked position to permit disengagement between the post assembly and the receiver assembly. The locking member includes two arms that are positioned in a slide lockup channel of the post assembly in the locked configuration, where the arms move out of engagement with the slide lockup channel in the unlocked configuration.

A closed end zipper includes a bottom stop at the end of one zipper tape, and a pin at the end of the other zipper tape. The bottom stop has a pin hole and a first detent portion in the pin hole. The pin has a second detent portion formed on the front surface and/or one lateral surface thereof corresponding to the first detent portion. When used to manufacture clothing, the two separate zipper tapes can be sewn on the fabric separately through the template, and then the pin of the other zipper tape is inserted into the pin hole of the bottom stop, so that the second detent portion and the first detent portion snap together. Using this structure, the closed end nylon zipper or resin zipper are suitable for the automated template sewing process to achieve a simple and stable assembly without separation.

A fastening device includes at least one base portion and at least one fastener portion. The base portion is connected to a first object and the fastener portion is slidably assembled to the base portion. The fastener portion cooperates with the base portion to provide a locking and an unlocking function for connecting or disconnecting a second object to or from the base portion. With these arrangements, two objects can be repeatedly and quickly connected to or disconnected from each other.
