Title:
SLIDER FOR A RECLOSABLE FASTENER LYING A TWO DIMENSIONAL PLANE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001051362
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A slider (100) opens or closes an elongate, rigid reclosable fastener (40) sealing a lid (30) to the flange (20) of a container (10) where the fastener (40) lies in a plane defining mutually orthogonal directions. The slider (100) is slidably movable and attachable to a track disposed along the fastener (40) defining a travel path having vector components in each of the orthogonal directions. The slider (100) biases interlocking elements of the reclosable fastener (40) operatively associated therewith into engagement with one another as the slider (100) moves in a first direction and separates interlocking elements as the slider (100) moves in a second direction opposite the first.
