Description

Die Erfindung richtet sich auf einen Haarclip für die Befestigung im Kopfhaar, bestehend aus zwei mittels zweier gegeneinander verschwenkbarer, vorzugsweise federkraftbeaufschlagter, Griffschenkel in Aneinanderlage zu bewegenden Klemmbacken, die auf ihren einander zugewandten Außenflächen jeweils eine schwammartige Auflage aufweisen, die bei aneinanderliegenden Klemmbacken deren Berührungsflächen bilden. Sie richtet sich weiterhin auf ein Verfahren zum Betrieb des Haarclips.The invention is directed to a hair clip for fastening in the hair of the head, consisting of two clamping jaws which can be moved against one another by means of two pivotable, preferably spring-loaded handle legs, each of which has a sponge-like support on its mutually facing outer surfaces, which form the contact surfaces of the clamping jaws lying against one another . It continues to focus on a method of operating the hair clip.

Haarclips werden in der Praxis benutzt zum Formen des Haars, insbesondere zum Bilden von Wellen, ferner zum Festhalten der Frisur, aber auch als Schmuckstück. Solche nach dem Prinzip einer Wäscheklammer aufgebauten Haarclips besitzen zwei um eine Achse mit der Hand zusammenzudrückende Griffschenkel, die an ihrem der Grifffläche - jenseits der Achse - gegenüberliegenden Längsenden als Klemmbacken ausgebildet werden. Je nach Anwendungszweck können die Klemmbacken sehr verschiedene Formen haben. Sie dienen beispielsweise auch dazu, frisch gefärbte Haare auf einem Lockenwickler bis zum Fixieren der Farbe festzuhalten. Eine aktive Aufgabe beim Färben übernehmen bekannte Haarclips allerdings nicht.Hair clips are used in practice to shape the hair, in particular to form waves, also to hold the hairstyle, but also as a piece of jewelry. Such hair clips constructed according to the principle of a clothespin have two handle legs which can be pressed by hand around an axis and which are formed as clamping jaws on their longitudinal ends opposite the handle surface - on the other side of the axis. Depending on the application, the jaws can have very different shapes. They also serve, for example, to hold freshly colored hair on a hair roller until the color is fixed. However, known hair clips do not take on an active task in dyeing.

Aus der DE-A-2600443 ist ein Verfahren zum unterschiedlichen Anfärben separierter Haarsträhnen bekannt. Nach diesem Verfahren können unterschiedliche Farbspiele mit abgestuften Nuancen erzeugt werden. Es kann beispielsweise eine Haarsträhne von der Kopfhaut bis zur Haarspitze, nur an der Haarspitze, nur an der Basis oder nur in einem Zwischenabschnitt behandelt, z. B. aufgehellt oder gefärbt werden. Zum Durchführen des bekannten Verfahrens wird eine kammartige Vorrichtung verwendet, zwischen deren Kammzähnen das Behandlungsmittel, insbesondere die Farbe, aus einem in der Vorrichtung befindlichen Reservoir anzufördern ist. Das Färben erfolgt dadurch, daß eine Haarsträhne mehr oder weniger weit zwischen den Zinken der kammartigen Vorrichtung hindurchgezogen wird. Der entstehende gefärbte Bereich verläuft daher im wesentlichen parallel zur Achse des einzelnen Haares.DE-A-2600443 discloses a method for differently coloring separate strands of hair. Using this process, different color plays with graded nuances can be created. For example, there can be a strand of hair from the scalp to the tip of the hair, only at the tip of the hair, only at the base or treated only in an intermediate section, e.g. B. lightened or colored. In order to carry out the known method, a comb-like device is used, between the comb teeth of which the treatment agent, in particular the paint, is to be conveyed from a reservoir located in the device. The dyeing is carried out by pulling a strand of hair more or less between the teeth of the comb-like device. The resulting colored area therefore runs essentially parallel to the axis of the individual hair.

Ein Haarclip der eingang bezeichneten Art ist aus der DE-C-662702 bekannt. Mit diesem vorbekannten Haarclip soll überflüssiges Haarfärbemittel von den Haaren abgesaugt werden. Ein Hinweis, diesen Haarclip zur Abgabe von Haarbehandlungsmittel zu verwenden, ist der DE-C-662702 nicht zu entnehmen.A hair clip of the type mentioned is known from DE-C-662702. With this previously known hair clip, superfluous hair dye is to be extracted from the hair. A reference to the use of this hair clip for dispensing hair treatment agents cannot be found in DE-C-662702.

Weiterhin sind aus der US-A-2,776,667 und der US-A-2,705,499 scherenartige Vorrichtungen bekannt, die an ihren Enden klemmbackenartige Elemente aufweisen, die mit schwammartigen Auflagen versehen sind. Diese schwammartigen Auflagen sind zur Abgabe von Haarbehandlungsmittel vorgesehen. Hierzu werden die Auflagen zunächst in das Haarbehandlungsmittel enthaltende Behälter eingetaucht und mit Haarbehandlungsmittel gesättigt durch das zu behandelnde Haar gezogen. Diese bekannten Vorrichtungen sind aber keine Haarclips, die im Kopfhaar zu befestigen sind, sondern Haarbehandlungsvorrichtungen, die von Hand durch das Haar geführt und gegebenenfalls an einer Stelle gehalten werden müssen. Dies ist mit einer gewissen Unbequemlichkeit der Handhabung verbunden. Auch muß das abzugebende Haarbehandlungsmittel separat zubereitet und in getrennten Behältern aufbewahrt werden.Furthermore, from US-A-2,776,667 and US-A-2,705,499 scissor-like devices are known which have at their ends jaw-like elements which are provided with sponge-like pads. These sponge-like pads are intended for the delivery of hair treatment agents. For this purpose, the pads are first immersed in the container containing the hair treatment agent and, saturated with hair treatment agent, pulled through the hair to be treated. However, these known devices are not hair clips which are to be fastened in the hair on the head, but rather hair treatment devices which have to be passed through the hair by hand and possibly held in one place. This is associated with a certain inconvenience in handling. The hair treatment agent to be dispensed must also be prepared separately and stored in separate containers.

Die vorbekannten Vorrichtungen weisen ferner den Nachteil auf, daß sie insbesondere dann unbequem zu handhaben sind, wenn Haarfärbemittel verwendet werden, bei welchen zwei Komponenten zur Bildung der Haarfärbelösung zusammengebracht werden müssen. Bei den bekannten Vorrichtungen müssen diese Haarfärbelösungen getrennt zubereitet werden. Die Komponenten für derartige Haarfärbelösungen sind nicht in den vorbekannten Vorrichtungen getrennt aufzubewahren.The previously known devices also have the disadvantage that they are particularly uncomfortable to use when using hair dye compositions in which two components have to be brought together to form the hair dye solution. In the known devices, these hair coloring solutions have to be prepared separately. The components for such hair coloring solutions are not to be kept separately in the previously known devices.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren zum Erzeugen von Aufhellungs-, Färbe-, Tönungs- oder Verformungseffekten o. dgl. an Haaren zu schaffen, die es erlaubt, im Gesamtbild der fertigen Haarfrisur in beliebiger Weise und unabhängig von der Längsrichtung des einzelnen Haares geformte Aufhellungs-, Färbe-, Tönungs-, Verformungs- oder sonstige sichtbare Behandlungsergebnisse zu erzeugen, wobei auch Flüssigkeitskomponenten, die erst bei Berührung miteinander die gewünschte Reaktion auslösen, getrennt voneinander in der Vorrichtung zu bevorraten sind.The object of the invention is to provide a device and a method for producing brightening, coloring, tinting or deforming effects or the like on hair, which allows the overall image of the finished hairstyle in any manner and regardless of the longitudinal direction to produce shaped lightening, coloring, tinting, shaping or other visible treatment results of the individual hair, liquid components which only trigger the desired reaction when they are in contact with one another must be stored separately in the device.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einem Haarclip der eingangs bezeichneten Art dadurch gelöst, daß die Auflagen zur Abgabe von Haarbehandlungsmittel jeweils mit einem in den Klemmbacken ausgebildeten und zumindest eine Haarbehandlungsflüssigkeit enthaltenden Reservoir in Fließverbindung stehen, wobei in den Reservoirs vorzugsweise unterschiedliche Haarbehandlungsflüssigkeiten enthalten sind, die erst durch Zusammenwirken den vorgesehenen Behandlungseffekt hervorrufen, und daß zwischen die einander gegenüberstehenden Auflagen mindestens eine Trennfolie oder Trennwand eingefügt ist.This object is achieved in the case of a hair clip of the type mentioned at the outset in that the supports for dispensing hair treatment compositions are each in fluid communication with a reservoir formed in the clamping jaws and containing at least one hair treatment fluid, the reservoirs preferably containing different hair treatment fluids which are only present through Interaction cause the intended treatment effect, and that at least one separating film or partition is inserted between the opposing pads.

Durch die Erfindung wird ein nach dem Prinzip einer Wäscheklammer aufgebauter Haarclip geschaffen, der an den beiden Klemmbacken je ein Reservoir für gleiche oder unterschiedliche Flüssigkeiten besitzt. Dieses Reservoir soll aus einem oberflächenaktiven, schwammartig nach dem Stempelkissenprinzip wirkenden Material, also beispielsweise aus Filz, Nadelstoff, Vlies, texturiertem Polymer o. dgl. bestehen. Da in Ausgestaltung der Erfindung die Klemmbacken und mit ihnen die die jeweilige Behandlungsflüssigkeit aufnehmenden Auflagen beliebig, z. B. streifen-, punkt-, sternförmig oder gerundet, geformt sein können, kann jedes durch die Wahl von gegebenenfalls auswechselbaren Auflagen und Klemmbacken vorbestimmte Muster in das jeweilige Haar eingebracht werden. Als Behandlungsflüssigkeiten können Konditioniermittel, Verformungsmittel, Haarfestiger, Bleichmittel, Tönungsmittel und Haarfärbemittel eingesetzt werden.The invention provides a hair clip constructed according to the principle of a clothespin, which has a reservoir for the same or different liquids on the two clamping jaws. This reservoir should consist of a surface-active material that acts like a sponge according to the stamp pad principle, that is to say, for example, of felt, needle material, fleece, textured polymer or the like. Since in an embodiment of the invention, the jaws and with them the respective treatment liquid absorbing pads arbitrarily, for. B. stripes, dots, stars or rounded, can be shaped, each predetermined pattern can be introduced into the respective hair by the choice of optionally interchangeable pads and jaws. Conditioning agents, shaping agents, hair setting agents, bleaching agents, tinting agents and hair coloring agents can be used as treatment liquids.

Da für die jeweilige erfindungsgemäße Haarbehandlung zwei Flüssigkeitsreservoire zugleich an das Haar angebracht werden, bietet die vorliegende Erfindung die Möglichkeit, die beiden Reservoire mit unterschiedlichen Flüssigkeiten zu beaufschlagen, die erst bei Berührung miteinander bzw. mit dem zu behandelnden Haar, gegebenenfalls nach einer gewissen Reaktionszeit, den vorgesehenen Effekt sichtbar machen. Besonders in diesem Fall ist es wichtig, die beiden Flüssigkeitsreservoire bis zur Anwendung voneinander zu trennen. Zwischen die einander gegenüberstehenden Auflagen der Flüssigkeiten enthaltenden Klemmbacken ist daher mindestens eine Trennfolie oder Trennwand eingefügt. Die Trennfolie kann auch als Verpackungshilfe für die beiden Reservoire ausgebildet werden. Dieser Fall wird insbesondere dann vorgesehen, wenn relativ leicht verdunstende Flüssigkeiten eingesetzt werden. Diese Vorsichtsmaßnahme kommt besonders dann in Frage, wenn wenigstens eine der vorgesehenen Flüssigkeiten mit der Umgebungsluft reagiert und/oder schädliche bzw. unangenehm riechende Gase entwickelt. Im letzteren Falle führt demgemäß ein Aufreißen der Folie vor Beginn der Anwendung sowohl zur Entfernung der Verpackungshülle als auch der Trennfolie.Since two liquid reservoirs are attached to the hair at the same time for the respective hair treatment according to the invention, the present invention offers the possibility of applying different liquids to the two reservoirs, which only come into contact with one another or with the hair to be treated, possibly after a certain reaction time, make the intended effect visible. In this case in particular, it is important to separate the two liquid reservoirs from one another until use. At least one separating film or partition is therefore inserted between the mutually opposing supports of the clamping jaws containing liquids. The separating film can also be designed as a packaging aid for the two reservoirs. This is particularly the case when relatively easily evaporating liquids are used. This precautionary measure is particularly suitable if at least one of the liquids provided reacts with the ambient air and / or develops harmful or unpleasant smelling gases. Accordingly, in the latter case, tearing open the film before the start of the application both removes the packaging sleeve and the separating film.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung sieht die Erfindung vor, daß zumindest ein Reservoir eine dieses unterteilende Trennwand aufweist. Hierdurch ist es möglich, in einer durch die Trennwand unterteilten Auflage zwei verschiedene Behandlungsflüssigkeiten bzw. -mischungen auf dem Haar und nach Entfernen der Trennfolie miteinander und mit der Flüssigkeit der gegenüberliegenden Auflage reagieren zu lassen.In a further embodiment, the invention provides that at least one reservoir has a partition dividing it. This makes it possible to allow two different treatment liquids or mixtures on the hair and after removal of the separating film to react with one another and with the liquid of the opposite layer in a layer divided by the partition.

Bei einem Verfahren der eingangs bezeichneten Art wird die Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, daß die zu behandelnden Haarteile nach Entfernen der Trennfolie zwischen den Auflagen der Klemmbacken eingeklemmt und solange in der Klemmposition belassen werden, bis die aus den beiden Auflagen kommenden Flüssigkeiten mit dem Haar und/oder miteinander im Sinne des Behandlungszieles reagiert haben.In a method of the type mentioned, the object is achieved in that the hair parts to be treated are clamped between the pads of the clamping jaws after removal of the separating film and are left in the clamping position until the liquids coming from the two pads with the hair and / or have reacted with each other in the sense of the treatment goal.

Bei Anwendung des erfindungsgemäßen Haarclips werden die zu behandelnden Haare zwischen den beiden Auflagen eingeklemmt. Die aus den Reservoiren austretenden Flüssigkeiten werden im Bereich der eingeklemmten Haare gemischt, so daß eine Reaktion, z. B. Oxidation der Farbstoffkomponenten, erfolgt und die gewünschte Farbe auf dem Haar gebildet wird. Nach der jeweiligen Reaktion, die z. B. eine halbe Stunde dauern kann, wird die Farbentwicklung sichtbar und unabwaschbar.When using the hair clip according to the invention, the hair to be treated is clamped between the two pads. The liquids emerging from the reservoirs are mixed in the area of the pinched hair, so that a reaction, e.g. B. oxidation of the dye components, and the desired color is formed on the hair. After respective reaction, the z. B. can take half an hour, the color development is visible and washable.

Ein wesentlicher Vorteil der Erfindung besteht darin, daß praktisch jede beliebige Strähne des Haars separat behandelt werden kann. Beispielsweise lassen sich auch Streifen quer zu den Haarachsen oder sonstige beliebige Muster und Formate, die lediglich von der Form der beiden Reservoire abhängen, aufbringen. Schließlich können die Auflagen jeweils einen homogenen Körper auf jeder Klemmbacke bilden oder zwei- oder mehrfach zur Aufnahme unterschiedlicher Flüssigkeiten im Bereich einer Klemmbacke unterteilt sein, um spezielle Modeeffekte im Haar, z. B. Glanzlichter, Farbtupfer oder Ornamente, zu erzeugen.A major advantage of the invention is that practically any strand of hair can be treated separately. For example, stripes across the hair axes or any other pattern and format that only depends on the shape of the two reservoirs can also be applied. Finally, the pads can each form a homogeneous body on each jaw or be divided two or more times to accommodate different liquids in the area of a jaw in order to achieve special fashion effects in the hair, e.g. B. highlights, pops of color or ornaments.

Es ist selbstverständlich möglich, den erfindungsgemäßen Haarclip als Einwegartikel wie auch mit einer Nachfüllmöglichkeit, daß heißt also für mehrmalige Anwendungen auszugestalten.It is of course possible to design the hair clip according to the invention as a disposable item and also with a refill option, that is to say for multiple uses.

Anhand der schematischen Zeichnung eines Ausführungsbeispiels werden weitere Einzelheiten der Erfindung erläutert. Es zeigen:

Der Haarclip nach Fig. 1 und 2 besteht aus zwei um eine Achse 1 schwenkbar gelagerten Griffschenkeln 2 und 3 und daran jenseits der Achse 1 angeformten Klemmbacken 4 und 5. Auf den Klemmbacken 4 und 5 befindet sich erfindungsgemäß je eine Auflage 6 und 7, die aus einem stempelkissenartigen, oberflächenaktiven Material besteht und eine Behandlungsflüssigkeit, beispielsweise zum Aufhellen oder Färben von menschlichem Haar, aufnehmen kann. Die Auflagen stehen in Verbindung mit dem Reservoir 12. Die Auflagen 6, 7 können an sich beliebig geformt sein. Fig. 2 zeigt in der rechts dargestellten Ausgestaltung eine insgesamt rechteckige Form. In der links dargestellten Ausgestaltung besteht die Auflage aus einer Reihe von kreisförmigen einzelnen Teilen. Um die Auflagen 6 und 7 vor Anwendung, d. h. vor dem Einklemmen in das zu behandelnde Haar voneinander zu trennen, und gegebenenfalls eine vorzeitige Reaktion der sich in den beiden Auflagen 6 und 7 gegenüberstehenden Flüssigkeiten auszuschließen, wird zwischen den Auflagen eine für die beiden Flüssigkeiten undurchlässige Folie 8 eingefügt. Die Folie kann auch, z. B. bei doppellagiger Ausführung, zum Verpacken der beiden Auflagen 6 und 7 verwendet werden.1 and 2 consists of two handle legs 2 and 3 which are pivotally mounted about an axis 1 and have jaws 4 and 5 formed thereon beyond the axis 1. On the jaws 4 and 5 there are according to the invention a support 6 and 7, respectively consists of a pad-like, surface-active material and a treatment liquid, for example for lightening or dyeing human hair. The pads are connected to the reservoir 12. The pads 6, 7 can be of any shape per se. 2 shows an overall rectangular shape in the embodiment shown on the right. In the embodiment shown on the left, the support consists of a series of circular individual parts. In order to separate the pads 6 and 7 from each other before use, that is to say before pinching them in the hair to be treated, and possibly to preclude a premature reaction of the liquids in the two pads 6 and 7, between the pads one becomes impermeable to the two liquids Slide 8 inserted. The film can also, e.g. B. in a double-layer version, can be used for packaging the two layers 6 and 7.

Bei Anwendung werden die beiden Griffschenkel 2 und 3 gegen die Kraft einer Feder 9 in Pfeilrichtung 10 gegeneinander gedrückt, derart, daß die beiden Klemmbacken 4 und 5 mit den Auflagen 6 und 7 voneinander getrennt werden und die Folie 8 herauszuziehen ist. Anschließend werden die Klemmbacken in der gewünschten Weise in das zu behandelnde Haar eingesetzt und dort so lange gelassen, bis der beabsichtigte Effekt für die weitere Behandlung ausreichend fixiert ist.In use, the two handle legs 2 and 3 are pressed against the force of a spring 9 in the direction of arrow 10 such that the two jaws 4 and 5 with the supports 6 and 7 are separated and the film 8 is to be pulled out. The jaws are then inserted in the desired manner into the hair to be treated and left there until the intended effect is sufficiently fixed for the further treatment.

Die Auflagen 6 oder 7 können jeweils einteilig genau eine Behandlungsflüssigkeit bzw. Flüssigkeitsmischung aufnehmen oder aber mit einer Trennwand 11 versehen sein, die es ermöglicht, in einer durch die Trennwand 11 unterteilten Auflage 6 zwei verschiedene Behandlungsflüssigkeiten bzw. -mischungen auf dem Haar - nach Entfernen der Folie 8 - miteinander und mit der Flüssigkeit der gegenüberliegenden Auflage 7 reagieren zu lassen.The pads 6 or 7 can each take up one treatment liquid or liquid mixture in one piece or can be provided with a partition wall 11, which makes it possible to remove two different treatment liquids or mixtures on the hair in a support 6 divided by the partition wall 11 after removal the film 8 - to react with each other and with the liquid of the opposite support 7.

Es bestehen zahlreiche Möglichkeiten, die vorliegenden Haarclips zum Erzeugen unterschiedlicher Effekte zu benutzen. Unter anderem kommen folgende Anwendungen in Frage:There are numerous ways to use the hair clips at hand to create different effects. Among others, the following applications are possible:

Beispiel 1example 1

Zum Erzeugen von Färbeeffekten auf Oxidationshaarfarbenbasis wird die eine Auflage mit Wasserstoffperoxid (sauer) und die andere Auflage mit einer Lösung von Oxidationsfarbstoffvorprodukten (alkalisch) und Natriumsulfit beaufschlagt.To produce coloring effects based on oxidation hair colors, one layer is treated with hydrogen peroxide (acidic) and the other layer with a solution of oxidation dye precursors (alkaline) and sodium sulfite.

Beispiel 2Example 2

Zum Erzeugen von Färbeeffekten auf Direktzieherbasis können beide Auflagen unmittelbar mit Lösungen direktziehender Haarfarbstoffe versehen werden. Direktzieher in der Haarfärberei sind bekanntlich Farbstoffe, die ohne zwischen- oder vorgeschaltete chemische Reaktionen zur Färbung der Haare beitragen.To create coloring effects based on direct drawing, both layers can be provided with solutions of direct hair dyes. As is known, direct pullers in hair dyeing are dyes that contribute to the coloring of the hair without any intermediate or upstream chemical reactions.

Beispiel 3Example 3

Zum Herstellen schwacher Blondierungen kann die eine Auflage mit wässriger (stabilisierter) Wasserstoffperoxid-Lösung (sauer) und die andere Auflage mit wässriger Ammoniak-Lösung gefüllt werden.To produce weak bleaching, one pad can be filled with aqueous (stabilized) hydrogen peroxide solution (acidic) and the other pad with aqueous ammonia solution.

Beispiel 4Example 4

Starke Blondierungen werden erzielt, wenn eine unterteilte Auflage mit getrennt untergebrachtem Wasserstoffperoxid und Peroxidsulfat und die andere Auflage mit wässriger Ammoniak-Lösung versehen wird.Severe bleaching is achieved when one sectioned pad is provided with separately stored hydrogen peroxide and peroxide sulfate and the other pad with aqueous ammonia solution.

Beispiel 5Example 5

Zur Festigung bestimmter Haarpartien (mit und ohne Färbeeffekt) werden die Auflagen mit Filmbildner (und gegebenenfalls Direktzieher)-Lösung beaufschlagt.To fix certain areas of hair (with and without coloring effect), the layers are treated with a film former (and, if applicable, direct draw) solution.
