Slider

Slider (1) for a zip fastener, which slider comprises a lower part (4), an upper part (3) and a puller (2), where the lower part (4) and the upper part (3) are interconnected by means of a hinge, whereby the slider can be set in an open and a closed condition, respectively, where

• the puller (2), which is made of a resilient material and constitutes the part that the user holds when using the slider, comprises locking pins (6) for locking the lower part (4) and the upper part (3) in the closed condition, and also dividing shoulders (9),
• the lower part (4), which when the slider (1) is mounted to a zip fastener mainly is located on a first side of the zip fastener, comprises a hole (7) which can receive the locking pins (6) of the puller (2) in order to lock the lower part and the upper part in the closed condition,
• the upper part (3), which when the slider (1) is mounted to a zip fastener mainly is located on a second side of the zip fastener, comprises a cradle (13) for the locking pins (6) of the puller (2) and also a slanted dividing body (10), which can separate the dividing shoulders (9) and therewith the locking pins (6) of the puller (2), and
• the upper part (3) comprises two hinge taps (14) and the lower part (4) comprises an area (15, 16, 17) for cooperation with said hinge taps, whereby the hinge between the lower part and the upper part is formed through cooperation between the hinge taps (14) and the area (15, 16, 17),
• characterised in that
• the area (15, 16, 17) of the lower part comprises an assembly chamfer (16), which by cooperation with the hinge taps (14) is adapted to pivotally lock the upper part (3) and the lower part (4), and in that the area (15, 16, 17) of the lower part also comprises a guiding groove (15), in which the hinge taps (14) are led upon assembly of the upper part (3) to the lower part (4), whereby the assembly chamfer (16) forces the hinge taps (14) outwards in a slight resilient movement.
