Abstract

This invention has a plastic housing designed as an attachment to a hair clipper to perform precise barbering (hair length saved between 10 and 150mm), even though the operator is not a trained barber. Most brand name hair clippers can be secured to the base of the housing. The round open end connects to the hose of a domestic or workshop vacuum cleaner. The other rectangular open end connects to provided spacer ducts, which determine distance between scalp and hair clipper blades. Hold the tubular chamber with hair clipper secured. Put spacer ducts perpendicularly touching scalp. When the vacuum cleaner is switched on, hair will be sucked through spacer ducts into housing chambers.
Turn on the hair clipper and move along scalp gently and slowly. Clippings will be sucked into the vacuum cleaner container. No sweeping is necessary.

Description

HAIR CLIPPER ATTACHMENT
DESCRtPTI4N
This invention has plastic housing designed to attach to a hair clipper to perform precise barbering (hair length saved between 10 and 150mm), even though the operator is not a trained barber. No cutting mechanism is built inside the housing.
However, most brand named hair clippers can be secured to the base of the housing. It consists of nine parts, namely: 1. Housing; 2. Rubber sleeve; 3. Copper fastener; 4a. Single leg spacer #1;
4b. Single leg spacer #2; 5. Duct spacer connector; 6. Duct spacer; 7a. End duct spacer #1 and 7b. End duct spacer #2.
1. Housing. See Fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4.
Fig. 1 is a front view. It consists of a tubular chamber 1 and a rectangular chamber 2 and is symmetrical from centre line. Fig. 2 is a sectional view on line A-A of Fig. 1 and a brand named hair clipper 64 (shown dotted) is attached to it. When centre line of rectangular chamber 2 is placed vertically (see Fig. 2), centre line of tubular chamber 1 inclined N degrees. There are four openings 3, 4, 5 and 6. One opening 3 is at tubular chamber 1. Other three openings are at rectangular chamber 2. One is in the front 4, one is at the back 5 and other is at the bottom 6 (see Fig. 1 and 2).
Tubular opening 3 connects to the hose of a domestic or workshop vacuum cleaner (not shown). Rectangular opening 6 connects to duct spacer connector (Fig. 10, 11 and 12), duct spacer (Fig. 13, 14 and 15) and End duct spacer #1, (Fig. 16, 17 and 18) or End duct spacer #2, (Fig. 19, 20 and 21 ).
A hair clipper 64 (shown dotted) is mounted on base 7, which is extended from bottom of rectangular chamber 2. On both sides there are edge walls 15, one on each side.
At the end there is a flange (hair clipper rest) 8, on which heel of hair clipper 65 (shown dotted) is sitting on it. At centre line there is a threaded hole 9 for a securing screw (not shown).

Hair clipper stopper 12 (see Fig. 2) is a flat piece on both inside walls of rectangular chamber 2. The V-shape slots 13 (see Fig. 2) will stop hair clipper 64 (shown dotted) from moving in further.
Air diverging wall 14 (see Fig. 2) is above opening 4, partly blocking opening 6 for guiding hair to feed into cutting blades of hair clipper 64 (shown dotted). It is attached from both inside side walls and front inside wall of rectangular chamber 2. See Fig. 2.
Fig. 3 is a back view and Fig. 4 is a sectional view on line B-B of Fig. 3.
2. Rubber sleeve. See Fig. 5.
Fig. 5 is a perspective view. It is made with coloured (preferably black) soft rubber with a tapering tubular shape. There are two openings, one at each end, 16 and 17. It is used to slip through outside tubular chamber 1 and cover partly of back opening 5 of rectangular chamber 2, see Fig. 3. It is also used to hold legs 20 of a pair of single leg spacers #1 (Fig. 8), legs 24 of a pair of single leg spacers #2 (Fig. 9) or legs 32 of spacer duct connector (Fig. 10, 11 and 12) in place. Because of flexibility of rubber, it will allow hair clipper head 66 (shown dotted in Fig. 2; rubber sleeve Fig. 5 not shown for clarity) intruding into rectangular chamber 2.
3. Copper fastener. See Fig. 6 and 7.
Fig. 6 is a front view and Fig. 7 is a sectional view on line C-C of Fig. 6.
It is made ' 1 - ._ Lt 1 _ 1 TI ' 1 _ 1 .1 A 1' _ 1 1_ 1 _ O _ Wlth Copp~f UI 311111141 GUI l t I tCldl. 1 I ICI C IJ JIUL I O cfl LCI Ill C

19 at both ends. With a screw (not shown) through slot 18, it can secure hair clipper heel 65 (see Fig. 2) safely sitting on hair clipper heel rest 8 of base 7 of housing (Fig. 1, 2, 3 or 4).

4a. Single leg spacer #1. See Fig. 8 Fig. 8 is a perspective view. Corners 21 at one end are rounded off. Other end has a longitudinal skate like foot 22. On leg 20 there is a stopper 23 for retaining certain space between scalp and hair clipper cutter blades (not shown).
For short hair cutting (for example: 25mm) insert legs 20 of a pair of single leg spacer #1 (Fig. 8) into slots 10 (see Fig. 3 and 4), one on each side of housing (Fig. 1, 2, 3 or 4). 11 are outside walls of slots 10 (see Fig. 4).
4b. Single leg spacer #2. See Fig. 9.
Fig. 9 is perspective view. Corners 25 at one end are rounded off. At other end there is a longitudinal ski like foot 26.
For very short hair cutting (for example: 10mm), insert legs 24 of a pair of single leg spacer #2 (Fig. 9) into slots 10 (see Fig. 3 and 4), one on each side of housing (Fig 1, 2, 3, and 4).
For short taper hair cutting (for example: one side saves 25mm and other side 1 Omm) along hair line, insert leg 20 of single leg spacer #1 (Fig. 8) into one of slots 10 of housing (Fig 1, 2, 3 and 4) and insert leg 24 of single leg spacer #2 (Fig. 9) into other slot of housing (Fig 1, 2, 3 and 4).
5. Duct spacer connector. See Fig. 10, 11 and 12.
Fig. 10 is a plan view. It is symmetrical from centre line. Main function of it is to connect housing (Fig 1, 2, 3 and 4) and Duct spacer (Fig. 13, 14 and 15) together. It has four walls 27, 28, 29 and 30. Front wall 27, which is longer than back wall 28 (see Fig. 12), is used to block opening 4 in front of housing (Fig 1, 2, 3 and 4). Two side walls 29 and 30 each have an extended leg 32, which is used to insert into slots 10 (see Fig.
3 and 4) on both sides of housing (Fig 1, 2, 3, and 4). For easy insertion corners 33 of legs 32 are -, J

rounded off.
Inside four walls 27, 28, 29 and 30 is a hallow chamber 34. See Fig. 10.
Fig. 11 is a front view and Fig. 12 is a Sectional view on line D-D of Fig.
11.
6. Duct spacer. See Fig. 13, 14 and 15.
Fig. 13 is a plan view. It is symmetrical from centre line. It has four walls 35, 36, 37 and 38. Main function of it is to determine hair length to be saved. Stacking up more duct spacers (Fig. 13, 14 and 15) together increase length of hair to be saved.
For connecting duct spacer (Fig. 13, 14 and 15) onto Duct spacer connector (Fig.
10, 11 and 12), insert flat end of duct spacer (Fig. 13, 14 and 15) onto duct spacer connector (Fig. 10, 11 and 12). Convex round nipples 31 of duct spacer connector (Fig.
10, 11 and 12} will ft into concave round cavities 44 near flat end of duct spacer (Fig. 13, 14 and 15). They will hold and stay together.
At centre line on top edge of front and back wall 35 and 36, there are flanges 39 and 41. At centre line of each flange 39 and 41, there are convex round nipples 40 and 42 (see Fig. 14 and 15).
At centre line near bottom on both walls 35 and 36, there are concave round cavities 44 on external side of each wall (see Fig. 15).
At top edge of each side wall 37 and 38 and on external side, there are flanges 43 (see Fig. 14 and 15). Flanges 39, 41 and 43 are used to hold an additional duct spacer (Fig. 13, 14 and 15), an end duct spacer #1 (Fig. 16, 17 and 18) or end duct spacer #2 (Fig. 19, 20 and 21 ) in place.
Inside four walls 35, 36, 37 and 38 there is hallow chamber 45. See Fig. 13.

Fig. 16 is a plan view. It is symmetrical from centre line. This is the last connection to duct spacer (Fig. 13, 14 and 15) for cutting hair around crown area. It has four walls 46, 47, 48 and 49. Front wall 46 and back wall 47 have the same depth. Side walls 48 and 49, which have the same depth, but longer than front and back walls 46 and 47. At the end of each side wall 48 and 49 there are longitudinal skate like feet 52 and 53.
Inside four walls 46, 47, 48 and 49, there is a hallow chamber 54. See Fig.
16.
Fig. 17 is a front view and Fig. 18 is a sectional view on line F-F of Fig.

Fig. 19 is a plan view. This is last connection to duct spacer (Fig. 13, 14 and 15) for long hair (for example: one side saves 25mm and other side 65mm) taper cutting on both sides and back of head along hairline. It has four walls 55, 56, 57 and 58.
Front wall 55 and back wall 56 are similar. One side is longer than the other side. Side wall 57 is shorter than the other side wall 58 (see Fig. 20). At the end of each side wall 57 and 58, there are longitudinal skate like feet 61 and 62.
Inside four walls 55, 56, 57 and 58, there is a hallow chamber 63. See Fig.
