Abstract
An anti-pinch zipper includes two zipper tapes and a zipper slider. The inner side of the chain cloth of each zipper tape is folded back to the front to form a chain belt portion and a sliding space. The zipper slider has a top plate that holds the pull tab and is provided with a structure to guide the two rows of teeth of the zipper tapes to be interlocked with each other. The rows of teeth and the chain belt portions are passed through the zipper slider, so that the top plate and the pull tab are located on the front of the zipper, and the two chain cloths cover the back of the zipper slider.
