Abstract:
A plurality of warp threads includes total N adjacent tightening threads each repeats crossing over N second legs at a side of the first tape-surface and crossing over the weft thread at a side of the second tape-surface so as to tighten the coil-shaped element to the weft thread. Said N indicates a natural number equal to or greater than 2. Each tightening thread includes an exposed portion that crosses over the weft thread and is exposed at a side of the second tape-surface. As the N adjacent tightening threads extend, the respective exposed portions of the tightening threads appear at a side of the second tape-surface one-by-one alternately or one-by-one sequentially.

Claim (Index 1):
A fastener stringer comprising:\n a fastener tape that includes one or more weft threads and a plurality of warp threads, the fastener tape having a first tape-surface and a second tape-surface; and a coil-shaped element that is provided onto the fastener tape so as to appear at a side of the first tape-surface of the fastener tape, the coil-shaped element including a series of unit structures, each unit structure including:\n a first leg that extends along the weft thread; \n a second leg arranged farther away from the weft thread than the first leg; \n an engaging head that couples the first leg and the second leg at a position outwardly of fastener tape; and \n a return portion that couples the first leg and a second leg of an adjacent unit structure at a position inwardly of fastener tape, wherein \n the plurality of warp threads includes total N adjacent tightening threads each repeats crossing over N second legs at a side of the first tape-surface and crossing over the weft thread at a side of the second tape-surface so as to tighten the coil-shaped element to the weft thread, said N indicating a natural number equal to or greater than 2, wherein each tightening thread includes an exposed portion that crosses over the weft thread between the first legs arranged adjacent in a length direction of the fastener tape and that is exposed at a side of the second tape-surface, and wherein as the total N adjacent tightening threads extend, the respective exposed portions of the tightening threads appear at a side of the second tape-surface one-by-one alternately or one-by-one sequentially.
