As described above, the slide fastener assembly device 10 according to the present embodiment includes the slider moving device 55 for moving the first slider S1 attached to the fastener chain C2 to the left and right sides of the fastener chain C2. Since the direction to mesh and close the element row E moves, the first slider S1 side of the slide fastener SF can be closed. Thereby, since it is not necessary to close the 1st slider S1 side by manual work or other devices in a subsequent process, the manufacturing cost and manufacturing time of slide fastener SF can be reduced.

Furthermore, according to the slide fastener assembly device 10 of this embodiment, the insertion pin P2 and the seat pin P3 of the slide fastener chain C2 being transferred contact the first slider S1 held by the slider holding part 57, and the tension spring 57d holds the first slider S1. When the force for moving the fastener chain C2 toward the downstream side is greater than or equal to the applied force, the first slider S1 acts on the first slider S1, whereby the slider holding portion 57 swings downstream and downward, and the first slider holding portion 57 moves to the lower side. Since the holding of the slider S1 is released, it is not necessary to separately prepare a device for releasing the holding of the first slider S1. Thereby, the manufacturing cost and manufacturing time of the slide fastener assembly apparatus 10 can be reduced.

Moreover, according to the slide fastener assembly apparatus 10 of this embodiment, since the discharge gripper 70 which receives the finished slide fastener SF from the 2nd gripper 40 and transfers to a discharge part is included, it is not necessary for the 2nd gripper 40 to transfer the slide fastener SF to the discharge section. Thereby, the standby time of the cutting device 30, the 1st slider attachment device 50A, the 2nd slider attachment device 50B, and the upper stopper attachment device 60 can be shortened, and therefore the assembly time of the slide fastener SF can be shortened.

In addition, this invention is not limited to what was illustrated in the said embodiment, In the range which does not deviate from the summary of this invention, it can change suitably.

For example, the discharge gripper 70 which discharges the slide fastener SF may be removed, and the slide fastener SF may be discharged by the 2nd gripper 40. As shown in FIG.

Moreover, instead of the discharge gripper 70 which discharges the slide fastener SF, you may discharge the slide fastener SF by the roller apparatus containing a drive roller and a guide roller.

Furthermore, the first roller device 80 , the first chain storage part 90 , the second chain storage part 110 , and the second roller device 100 may be eliminated.

Moreover, in the case where the fastener chain C2 is short, the driving roller 81 of the first roller device 80 and the driving roller 101 of the second roller device 100 may not be driven, but only the first gripper 20 and the second gripper 40 may be used. to transfer the zipper chain C2.

Moreover, in this embodiment, the 2nd gripper 40 which transfers the fastener chain C2 may be removed, and the fastener chain C2 may be transferred by the 1st gripper 20. In this case, the first roller device 80 and the first chain storage part 90 may also be eliminated.

Furthermore, in this case, the discharge gripper 70 which discharges the slide fastener SF may be removed, and the slide fastener SF may be discharged using the 1st gripper 20. In this case, the second roller device 100 and the second chain storage unit 110 may also be removed.

Moreover, the zipper assembly device 10 may not use the first zipper slider installation device 50A and the zipper slider holder 51A, but only use the second zipper slider installation device 50B and the zipper slider holder 51B on the zipper chain C2. Install only the second zipper puller S2. In this case, it is possible to assemble a slide fastener that does not have the insertion tube P2 and the seat tube P3 but has a lower stopper or an opening and closing member including the insertion tube, the seat tube, and the seat body. Moreover, in this case, 51 A of slider holders and the slider moving apparatus 55 move downward, 52 A of slider supply apparatuses rotate upward, and are arrange|positioned at the position separated from the transfer line L.
