DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

(9) In order to make the purposes, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, clear and complete description will be made of the technical solution of the present invention in the following. Based on the specific embodiments of the present invention, all the other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

(10) The first embodiment of the invention provides a zipper assembly, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, including a slider and a zipper.

(11) The slider comprises an opening tongue 1, two limiting pieces 2 and one connecting block 3 wherein the two limiting pieces 2 are arranged in parallel; the opening tongue 1 is located between the two limiting pieces 2 and is connected with the connecting block 3; each of the two limiting pieces 2 is provided with two limiting blocks 4 at the side away from the connecting block 3, the limiting blocks 4 respectively arranged on the two limiting pieces 2 are disposed oppositely in a one-to-one relationship, and the spacing between the two limiting blocks 4 provided on the same limiting piece 2 is larger than the length of the opening tongue 1 in the direction where the spacing is located.

(12) The zipper comprises two single-chains 5; each single-chain 5 is provided with two toothless hooks 6 arranged in parallel; the toothless hooks 6 respectively arranged on the two single-chains 5 cooperate with each other one to one; one of the two toothless hooks 6 on each single-chain 5 is provided with an auxiliary track 7 on one side thereof; the auxiliary tracks 7 respectively arranged on the two single-chains 5 are disposed oppositely.

(13) When the slider cooperates with the zipper, the two single-chains 5 go through the area enclosed by the two limiting pieces 2, the four limiting blocks 4 and the connecting block 3; the opening tongue 1 is located in a cavity 8 enclosed by the two auxiliary tracks 7 and the two toothless hooks 6 adjacent to them.

(14) By arranging two toothless hooks 6 on each single-chain 5, since the toothless hook 6 is an integral one with no gap, which therefore can fulfill an excellent waterproof function, completely waterproofing can be basically achieved by arranging two toothless hooks at the same time. By providing the auxiliary tracks 7, the opening tongue 1 can be arranged in the cavity 8 enclosed by the auxiliary tracks 7 and the toothless hooks, and the opening tongue 1 props open the toothless hooks 6 indirectly, but the opening tongue 1 itself does not insert between the toothless hooks 6, thus eliminating the possibility of moisture flowing out from the gap between the opening tongue 1 and the toothless hooks 6, achieving the waterproof purpose. Fresh-keeping bags applied with such zipper assembly can prevent moisture from flowing out the opening of the fresh-keeping bags.

(15) In order to further enhance the performance of the zipper assembly, the second embodiment of the invention provides an improved zipper assembly, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 6, including a slider and a zipper.

(16) The slider comprises an opening tongue 1, two limiting pieces 2 and one connecting block 3, wherein the two limiting pieces 2 are arranged in parallel; the opening tongue 1 is located between the two limiting pieces 2 and is connected with the connecting block 3; each of the two limiting pieces 2 is provided with two limiting blocks 4 at the side away from the connecting block 3, the limiting blocks 4 respectively arranged on the two limiting pieces 2 are disposed oppositely in a one-to-one relationship, and the spacing between the two limiting blocks 4 provided on the same limiting piece 2 is larger than the length of the opening tongue 1 in the direction where the spacing is located.

(17) The zipper comprises two single-chains 5; each single-chain 5 is provided with two toothless hooks 6 arranged in parallel; the toothless hooks 6 respectively arranged on the two single-chains 5 cooperate with each other one to one; one of the two toothless hooks 6 on each single-chain 5 is provided with an auxiliary track 7 on one side thereof; the auxiliary tracks 7 respectively arranged on the two single-chains 5 are disposed oppositely.

(18) When the slider cooperates with the zipper, the two single-chains 5 go through the area enclosed by the two limiting pieces 2, the four limiting blocks 4 and the connecting block 3; the opening tongue 1 is located in a cavity 8 enclosed by the two auxiliary tracks 7 and the two toothless hooks 6 adjacent to them.

(19) When the two single-chains 5 cooperate with each other, the inner spacing of the cavity 8 is smaller than the spacing between the joints where the two toothless hooks 6 and the single-chains 5 join respectively, and the spacing between the outsides of the cavity 8 is smaller than the spacing between the outer wads to which the joints between the two toothless hooks 6 and the two single-chains 5 correspond respectively. Since the spacing within the cavity 8 is small, a strong force can be produced on the inner walls of the cavity 8 by the opening tongue even though the opening tongue 1 is small in size, and since the spacing between the outsides of the cavity 8 is smaller than the spacing between the outer walls to which the joints between the two toothless hooks 6 and the two single-chains 5 correspond respectively, the force will be better transferred to the toothless hooks 6, such that the toothless hooks 6 on both sides separate, completing the opening of the zipper.

(20) If it only depends on interaction between the two toothless hooks 6, deformation may appear in the toothless hooks 6 after long-time use, resulting in incapability of normal coupling. In order to avoid this situation, the hooks of the two toothless hooks 6 located on the same single-chain 5 face the same direction; each single-chain 5 is provided with a hook limiting strip 9 which is arranged on the side to which the hooks of the two toothless hooks 6 face. Thus the toothless hooks 6 can be restricted, effectively preventing their deformation, and the toothless hooks 6 on the two single-chains 5 can cooperate more closely, while having waterproof effects to a certain extent.

(21) The slider covers the zipper when in cooperation. If it covers too tightly, the zipper may deform due to the extrusion from the slider, thereby affecting its performance. In order to avoid the above mentioned situation, each single-chain 5 may be provided with a slider limiting strip 10 at the side away from the auxiliary track 7, the projecting direction of slider limiting strip is opposite to the direction of the toothless hooks 6. Thus the slider limiting strip can lock the limiting piece 2, ensuring the position relationship between the slider and the zipper, preventing the zipper from being damaged due to too much extrusion from the slider.

(22) When the slider and the zipper cooperate with each other, the limiting block 4 mainly performs combing and locking functions, but its locking function generally relies on friction force and clamping force, thus preventing the slider from disengaging from the zipper. However if the friction force or clamping force is too large, it will lead the slider to be difficult to slide, causing inconvenience in use. In order to solve the above problem, the space between the sides of the two single-chains 5 away from the auxiliary tracks 7 is smaller than the spacing between the outer was to which the joints between the two toothless hooks 6 and the two single-chains 5 correspond respectively, when the two single-chains 5 cooperate. Thus, the limiting block 4 can be locked here, preventing the slider from disengaging from the zipper.

(23) In addition, the dimension of the opening tongue 1 in the direction where the spacing of the two limiting pieces 2 is located may be provided as being tapered in the direction where the spacing between the two limiting blocks 4 on the same limiting piece 2 is located. Such that the resistance, which is encountered by the slider when dosing, is reduced, saving more labor while having a better combing effect.

(24) The limiting block 4 generally combs only the portion of the zipper contacting therewith, but the combing function is limited for other portions of the zipper, especially for the portion of the zipper in the area between the limiting block 4 and the connecting block 3. And since the portion of the zipper in this area is at the same time affected by the limiting block 4, the connecting block 3 and the opening tongue 1 together, its shape is easy to distort, blocking the slider from normal sliding. In order to avoid the above mentioned problem, a combing strip 11 may be respectively provided on each of the two limiting pieces 2, the extending direction of the combing strips 11 is perpendicular to the length direction of the opening tongue 1; the two combing strips 11 are arranged oppositely and are located at the end of the opening tongue 1 having smaller width. Thus the zipper can be combed, making the distorted location smooth, which is convenient for the slider going through.

(25) In order to facilitate the zipper going through the gap between the two opposite limiting blocks 4, preferably a chamfer bevel 12 is provided on the side of each limiting block 4 away from the limiting piece 2 connecting with it; the chamfer bevels 12 on the opposite limiting blocks 4 are arranged oppositely; and all the chamfer bevels 12 located at the side to which the end of the opening tongue 1 having smaller width directs, such that the zipper goes more easily into the inside of the slider.

(26) During use, an external force is usually applied on the limiting piece 2, making the slider slide, but if the surface of the slider is too smooth, the users must apply a very large force to push the slider. In order to avoid the above mentioned situation, anti-slip wrinkles 13 may be provided on the side where the two limiting pieces 2 are away from each other, the length direction of the anti-slip wrinkles is perpendicular to the length direction of the opening tongue 1, which can increase the surface friction of the slider, making it easier to be used by people.

(27) Finally, it is to be explained that the above embodiments and examples are merely to illustrate the technical solutions of the invention, rather than limiting the invention. While detailed description is made to the present invention with reference to the above mentioned embodiments and examples, those ordinary skilled persons in the field should understand that the technical solutions of the above mentioned embodiments or examples can be modified, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some technical features; and with these modifications or substitutions, the essence of the corresponding technological solutions does not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments or examples of the invention.
