Patent 9944028 was granted and assigned to IDEAL FASTENER CORPORATION on April, 2018 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Zippers components such as a traditional pin and box assembly may be affixed to zipper stringer tapes by a simple injection molding process. When a non-traditional magnetic alignment assembly is used in place of a traditional pin and box assembly, other means are needed to adequately affix the components of the magnetic alignment assembly to the zipper stringer tapes in order to provide a durable finished zipper.
