Abstract

A slider operable in a simple operation manner and capable of reducing an overall volume is provided. The slider includes: a slider body; a claw member positioned on the slider body and having a lock pin portion extending to an interior of the slider body to establish a locked state; an operation piece positioned on the slider body and connected to the claw member. The operation piece has first and second shaft portions that are separately positioned. The operation piece is rotatably positioned on the slider through the first shaft portion and connected to the claw member through the second shaft portion. Upon pressing the operation piece and enabling one side of the operation piece to rotate toward the slider with the first shaft portion as an axis center, the second shaft portion lifts the claw member to release the locked state in the interior of the slider body.
