Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is to not only provide engaging elements for a hook-and-loop fastener on the outer surface of a fastener body that is roughly U-shaped in front view but also to make it possible to easily attach and detach an object to be attached on the inner surface of the fastener body. The fastener (1) is provided with: a fastener body (2) that is roughly U-shaped in front view; at least one engaging element (6) protruding from the outer surface of the fastener body (2), the outer surface being roughly U-shaped in front view; and inner male element groups (4) for a hook-and loop fastener that is obtained from multiple male elements (6) protruding from the inner surface, which is roughly U-shaped in front view. The fastener body (2) is integrally molded with the inner male element groups (4). The front and back surfaces of an object (8) that is to be attached are provided with female element groups (9a) for hook-and-loop fasteners that are obtained from multiple female elements (9). The fastener (1) is installed so as to pinch the front and back surfaces of the end of the object (8) to be attached and is connected by engaging the inner male element groups (4) with the female element groups (9a) of the object (8) to be attached.
