Description

Technical Field



[0001] The present utility model relates to the field of snap button technologies, and specifically, to a snap button.

Background



[0002] Along with social development, a snap button is a fastener used to connect lappets on two sides of a garment. The snap button is originally used to connect the lappets of the garment, and now has been gradually developed to have artistic and decorative features, that is, personalized feature, in addition to the original function. However, the prior-art snap button has problems such as being easy to age, easy to loosen, insecure, and easy to get disengaged after being used for a long time. These problems need to be resolved urgently.

Summary of Utility Model



[0003] To address the deficiencies in the prior art, the present utility model provides a snap button that features a reasonable structure and ease of use. The snap button resolves the foregoing problems.

[0004] A technical solution used in the present utility model is as follows: a snap button, including a housing, where a rubber ring is disposed inside the housing, tooth-like blocks disposed in the rubber ring, a lower plate is disposed on one side of the rubber ring, a middle plate is disposed on one side of the lower plate, an upper ring is disposed on one side of the middle plate, a bottom of the upper ring is annular, a periphery of the bottom of the upper ring snaps into a bottom of the housing, a bottom of the lower plate bulges outward and is connected to a periphery of the rubber ring, and a through-hole is disposed at the center of the upper ring.

[0005] Preferably, the rubber ring is made of natural rubber, silica gel, or plastic.

[0006] Preferably, a through-hole is disposed at the center of the housing.

[0007] Preferably, the snap button can rotate 360°.

[0008] Preferably, several tooth-like blocks are disposed in the rubber ring.

Beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:



[0009] The present utility model features reasonable design, low costs, and ease of use. Tooth-like blocks are disposed in the rubber ring, making the snap button bite more tightly. This makes a structure of the snap button more stable, and prolongs the service life of the snap button, so that snap button is secure, does not easily fall off, is applicable to a larger scope, and has stronger aesthetic appeal. The snap button can be quickly fastened and unfastened, which is convenient for a large number of users.
