Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022241268A1] The invention involves a securable slider assembly for a zipper. The securable slider assembly is formed in a single die cast operation to include the securable slider and the pull being formed simultaneously. At least one side shi fting slide is incorporated into the die, which allows the bridge and pull loop to be formed with their full geometric shape and without the converging flat surfaces required in the prior art. The slide assembly includes a puller that includes geometry to allow two slides to be secured together after the closing operation of the zipper teeth and restricts the ability to separate the pullers for opening of the zipper teeth to provide security to the user.
