Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Lockenwickelelement zum Formen von Haaren sowie ein Halteelement für ein Lockenwickelelement.The invention relates to a curling element for shaping hair and a holding element for a curling element.

Der Anmelderin sind Lockenwickelelemente bekannt, die eine zylindrische Form aufweisen. Auf der Zylindermantelfläche sind Spitzen aufgebracht, um einen besseren Halt für die Haare zu gewährleisten, wenn die Lockenwickelelemente in die Haare eingedreht werden. Diese Lockenwickelelemente können nach dem Eindrehen in die Haare gehalten werden, indem von dem einen Ende des Zylinders zu dem anderen Ende ein Gummi gespannt wird, mit dem das Lockenwickelelement mitsamt den eingedrehten Haaren gehalten wird.The Applicant curling elements are known which have a cylindrical shape. On the Cylindrical surface are applied tips to better hold the hair too ensure that the curling elements are screwed into the hair. These Curling elements can be kept in the hair after being screwed in by the one end of the cylinder is stretched to the other end a rubber with which the Curling element is held together with the twisted hair.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, Lockenwickelelemente vorzuschlagen, mit denen Frisuren flexibler herstellbar sind. Weiterhin soll ein Halteelement vorgeschlagen werden, mit dem Lockenwickelelemente einfach und sicher gegen ein Aufdrehen gesichert werden können, nachdem diese Lockenwickelelemente eingedreht worden sind. The present invention has for its object to provide curling elements, with which hairstyles are more flexible to produce. Furthermore, a holding element to be proposed with the curling elements can be secured easily and safely against unscrewing, after these curling elements have been screwed.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung nach Anspruch 1 ist bei einem Lockenwickelelement in die zylindrische Grundform eine schraubenlinienförmige Einkerbung eingebracht, die in ihrem Bodenbereich sowie im Übergang zur Zylindermantelfläche abgerundet ist und die nur über einen Teil einer Oberfläche des Lockenwickelelements verläuft.In the inventive solution according to claim 1 is in a curling element in the cylindrical basic form introduced a helical notch, which in its Ground area as well as in the transition to the cylindrical outer surface is rounded and the only over part of a surface of the curler.

Dadurch können die Haare wiederum innerhalb einer Haarsträhne hinsichtlich der Durchmesser der Locken variiert werden.This allows the hair to turn within a strand of hair in terms of diameter the curls are varied.

Mit einem solchen Lockenwickelelement kann in einfacher Weise flexibel bei einer Haarsträhne eine Verringerung des Durchmessers der Locken im Mittelbereich der Haarsträhne erreicht werden, indem diese Haarsträhne am Beginn um den Zylindermantel gelegt wird, im Laufe der Länge der Haarsträhne in die Einkerbung eingelegt wird, so dass sich dort Locken mit einem geringeren Durchmesser ergeben und anschließend wieder um den Zylindermantel gelegt wird.With such a curling element can be flexible in a strand of hair in a simple manner Reducing the diameter of the curls in the middle area of the hair strand can be achieved by this strand of hair is placed around the cylinder jacket at the beginning, over the length of the strand of hair is inserted into the notch, so that there curls with a smaller diameter and then put back around the cylinder jacket.

Dieses Lockenwickelelement kann aber auch so benutzt werden, dass die Verringerung des Durchmessers der Locken nur am Anfang der Haarsträhne einsetzt oder nur am Ende, indem entsprechend beim Aufwickeln der Haare nur ein entsprechender Teil des Lockenwickelelementes benutzt wird.But this curling element can also be used so that the reduction of Diameter of the curls only at the beginning of the strand of hair inserts or only at the end by according to the winding of the hair, only a corresponding part of the curling element is used.

Bei der Ausgestaltung nach Anspruch 2 verjüngt sich der Radius der Zylindermantelfläche zu einem Ende hin.In the embodiment according to claim 2, the radius of the cylinder jacket surface tapers to a End.

Dadurch kann wiederum zusätzlich "überlagernd" der Durchmesser der Locken entlang der Haarsträhne verändert werden.This in turn can additionally "overlay" the diameter of the curls along the Hair strand can be changed.

Bei den beschriebenen Ausführungsformen ist eine zumindest im wesentlichen zylindrische Grundform auch dann noch gegeben, wenn diese aufgrund einer Verjüngung zu einer Kegelstumpf wird. Ebenso ist dies noch bei einer Abplattung an zwei oder mehreren Seiten gegeben.In the described embodiments, one is at least substantially cylindrical Basic shape even then given, if this due to a taper to a truncated cone becomes. Likewise, this is still given in a flattening on two or more pages.

Anspruch 3 betrifft ein Halteelement für ein Lockenwickelelement nach Anspruch 1. Dieses Halteelement besteht aus einem biegbaren Draht, der an dem Lockenwickelelement angebracht ist oder durch das Lockenwickelelement hindurch geht, wobei der Draht die Enden des Lockenwickelelements um zumindest einige Zentimeter überragt. Claim 3 relates to a holding element for a curling element according to claim 1. This Retaining element consists of a bendable wire attached to the curling element or through the curler, the wire terminating the ends of the curling element surmounted by at least a few centimeters.

Dadurch kann vorteilhaft in einfacher Weise verhindert werden, dass sich ein Lockenwickelelement wieder auforeht, nachdem es in eine Haarsträhne eingedreht worden ist. Dies kann erreicht werden, indem das Halteelement umgebogen wird, wenn das Lockenwickelelement eingedreht worden ist. Das Halteelement liegt dann auf dem Kopf an und verhindert ein Aufdrehen des Lockenwickelelements.This can advantageously be prevented in a simple manner that a curling element reappears after it has been screwed into a strand of hair. This can be achieved by bending the retaining element when the curling element has been screwed in. The Retaining element is then upside down and prevents untightening of the curling element.

Der Draht, der das Halteelement bildet, kann beispielsweise noch mit Kunststoff ummantelt sein, um den Tragekomfort zu verbessem und um eventuellen Allergien gegen einzelne Metalle vorzubeugen.The wire that forms the holding element, for example, can still be covered with plastic to to improve the comfort and to prevent possible allergies to individual metals.

Bei der Ausgestaltung nach Anspruch 4 besteht das Halteelement aus einem Kupferdraht.In the embodiment according to claim 4, the holding element consists of a copper wire.

Derartiger Kupferdraht wird bereits für die Elektroinstallation hergestellt und kann daher entsprechend preisgünstig bezogen werden. Es haben sich dabei Drähte mit einer Querschnittsfläche von 1,5 mm2 bzw. 2,5 mm2 als zweckmäßig erwiesen. Kupfer bietet weiterhin den Vorteil, dass der Draht häufig biegbar ist, ohne zu brechen.Such copper wire is already manufactured for electrical installation and can therefore be purchased reasonably priced. In this case, wires with a cross-sectional area of 1.5 mm 2 or 2.5 mm 2 have proven to be expedient. Copper also has the advantage that the wire is often bendable without breaking.

Gemäß Anspruch 5 kann ein Halteelement so realisiert sein, dass dieses wenigstens ein Teil aus einem elastischen Material aufweist, wobei dieses Teil derart an dem Halteelement bzw. dem Lockenwickelelement befestigbar ist oder von dem Halteelement bzw. dem Lockenwickelelement gehalten wird, dass dieses Teil sich im nicht mit Zug belasteten Zustand zumindest nahezu vollständig innerhalb des Lockenwickelelements befindet, wobei das Teil durch eine Zugbelastung aus dem Halteelement bzw. dem Lockenwickelelement herausziehbar ist, wobei das Teil im ausgezogenen Zustand mit seinem vorderen Ende am Halteelement bzw. dem Lockenwickelelement befestigbar ist oder mit einem anderen Teil des Halteelements verbindbar ist.According to claim 5, a holding element can be realized so that this at least a part of having an elastic material, wherein this part so on the holding element or the Curling element is fastened or by the holding element or the curling element is held that this part in the non-train loaded state, at least almost completely located within the curling element, wherein the part by a tensile load from the Retaining element or the curling element is pulled out, the part in the solid Condition with its front end on Retaining element or the curling element is fastened or with another part of the Retaining element is connectable.

Das elastische Material, aus dem das wenigstens eine Teil besteht, kann beispielsweise ein Gummi sein. Das Lockenwickelelement kann eine Bohnmg in seiner Längsrichtung aufweisen. Das Teil kann dann im nicht ausgezogenen Zustand innerhalb der Bohrung sein. Zur Halterung des Lockenwickelelements kann dieses Teil herausgezogen werden und über die Haare hinweg, die um das Lockenwickelelement aufgewickelt sind, gespannt und auf der anderen Seite des Lockenwickelelements an dem Lockenwickelelement selbst oder an dem Halteelement befestigt werden. Dadurch kann das Lockenwickelelement gehalten werden. The elastic material constituting the at least one part may be, for example, a rubber be. The curling element may have a bean in its longitudinal direction. The part can then be in the unexpanded state within the bore. To hold the Curling element, this part can be pulled out and across the hair, around the curling element are wound, stretched and on the other side of the Curling element attached to the curler itself or to the support member become. As a result, the curling element can be held.

Es erweist sich dabei als besonders vorteilhaft, dass das Halteelement beim Eindrehen des Lockenwickelelements fast nicht wahrnehmbar ist. Beim eingangs zitierten Stand der Technik musste entweder das Gummiband auf beiden Seiten des Lockenwickelelements befestigt werden, nachdem das Lockenwickelelement eingedreht war. Dies ist entsprechend schwierig, weil gleichzeitig das Lockenwickelelement gehalten werden musste, um ein Aufdrehen zu verhindern. Wenn das Gummiband auf einer Seite vorher befestigt wurde, hat sich dies beim Eindrehen als störend erwiesen. Vorteilhaft ist also bei der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung das Halteelement bereits am Lockenwickelelement befestigt, ohne dass das Halteelement beim Eindrehen des Lockenwickelelementes stören würde. Dies liegt daran, dass sich das Halteelement im nicht gespannten Zustand innerhalb des Lockenwickelelements befindet.It proves to be particularly advantageous that the holding element during insertion of the Curling element is almost imperceptible. At the cited prior art had Either the rubber band can be fastened on both sides of the curling element after the curling element was screwed. This is correspondingly difficult, because at the same time Curling element had to be held to prevent untwisting. If that Rubber band was attached to one side before, this has proved to be disturbing when screwing. Advantageously, therefore, in the solution according to the invention, the holding element already on Locking element attached without the retaining element during insertion of the Curling element would interfere. This is because the retaining element is not tensioned state is located within the curling element.

Gemäß Anspruch 6 weist das Halteelement ein Rohrstück mit einer zumindest im wesentlichen zylindrischen Form auf, wobei das wenigstens eine Teil im Bereich eines Endes des Rohrstücks befestigt ist oder gehalten wird, wobei das Rohrstück in dem Lockenwickelelement angeordnet ist, so dass sich das Rohrstück zumindest im wesentlichen in Längsrichtung des Lockenwickelelements erstreckt.According to claim 6, the holding element comprises a tube piece with an at least substantially cylindrical shape, wherein the at least one part in the region of one end of the pipe section is fixed or held, wherein the pipe piece is arranged in the curler, so that the pipe section at least substantially in the longitudinal direction of the curling element extends.

Diese Ausführungsform ist fertigungstechnisch besonders einfach herzustellen. Das Halteelement kann zunächst hagestellt werden und beim Herstellvorgang des Lockenwickelelements in das Lockenwickelelement eingegossen werden. Dadurch ist auch gewährleistet, dass die Bohrung in dem Lockenwickelelement hinreichend groß ist, so dass das Teil aus dem elastischen Material genug Aufnahmeraum findet im entspannten Zustand.This embodiment is particularly easy to manufacture. The holding element can be hagestellt first and in the manufacturing process of curling element in the Curling element are poured. This also ensures that the hole in the Curling element is sufficiently large, so that the part of the elastic material enough Recording room takes place in a relaxed state.

Die Figuren 15 und 16 zeigen weitere Ausführungsbeispiele für Halteelemente und Figur 17 nochmals eine Prinzipdarstelhung eines Lockenwickelelementes.An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawing. FIGS. 1 to 12 and 14 show different views of different curling elements. FIG. 13 shows a Retaining element for a curling element. Figures 15 and 16 show further Embodiments for holding elements and Figure 17 again a Prinzipdarstelhung a Curling element.

Figur 1 zeigt ein Lockenwickelelement 101. Dieses weist eine im wesentlichen zylindrische Grundform auf, die durch die strichpunktierte Linie 102 als Umhüllende des Lockenwickelelementes 101 dargestellt ist. In dieses Lockenwickelelement 101 sind ringförmige Kerbungen 103, 104 eingebracht. Diese ringförmigen Kerbungen 103 und 104 sind im Bereich von deren Boden sowie im Übergang zu der zylindrischen Mantelfläche jeweils abgerundet.Figure 1 shows a curling element 101. This has a substantially cylindrical Basic form, by the dotted line 102 as the envelope of the curler element 101 is shown. In this curling element 101 annular notches 103, 104 are introduced. These annular notches 103 and 104 are in the region of their bottom and in transition to the cylindrical lateral surface each rounded.

Weiterhin ist zu sehen, dass sich die Zylindermantelfläche 102 im Bereich von deren Enden 105, 106 jeweils verjüngt.Furthermore, it can be seen that the cylinder jacket surface 102 in the region of the ends 105, 106th each rejuvenated.

Durch die Abrundung der Einkerbungen 103 und 104 sowie die Verjüngungen im Bereich von den Enden 105 und 106 des Zylindermantels 102 entsteht jeweils zwischen den beiden Einkerbungen 103 und 104 sowie zwischen der Einkerbung 103 und dem einen Ende 106 sowie zwischen der Einkerbung 104 und dem anderen Ende 105 zumindest im wesentlichen ein Ellipsoid.By the rounding of the notches 103 and 104 as well as the rejuvenations in the area of the Ends 105 and 106 of the cylinder jacket 102 are formed between the two notches 103, respectively and 104 and between the notch 103 and the one end 106 and between the notch 104 and the other end 105 at least substantially an ellipsoid.

Wie in der Figur 1 zu sehen, können diese Ellipsoide beispielsweise kugelförmig sein.As can be seen in FIG. 1, these ellipsoids can be for example be spherical.

Es ist dabei möglich, diese Ellipsoide unterschiedlich lang auszubilden. Die Abstände zwischen den beiden Einkerbungen 103 und 104 sowie zwischen den Einkerbungen 103 und 104 und dem jeweiligen Ende 106, 105 der Zylindermantelfläche 102 müssen also nicht gleich sein.It is possible to form these ellipsoids of different lengths. The distances between the both notches 103 and 104 and between the notches 103 and 104 and the each end 106, 105 of the cylinder surface 102 must therefore not be equal.

Figur 2 zeigt das Lockenwickelelement nach Figur 1 in Draufsicht der innere Kreis 201 zeigt den Radius der Verjüngung am oberen Ende 106. Der größere Kreis 202 zeigt den Halbmesser des Ellipsoids zwischen dem oberen Ende 106 und der Einkerbung 103.Figure 2 shows the curling element of Figure 1 in plan view of the inner circle 201 shows the radius of the taper at the top 106. The larger circle 202 shows the Radius of the ellipsoid between the upper end 106 and the notch 103rd

Figur 3 zeigt ein weiteres Ausführungsbeispiel eines Lockenwickelelementes 301. Die Umhüllende zylindrische Mantelfläche ist hier mit 302 bezeichnet. Im Unterschied zu dem Lockenwickelelement 101 nach Figur 1 weist das Lockenwickelelement 301 lediglich ein Einkerbung 303 auf.Figure 3 shows another embodiment of a curler element 301. The envelope cylindrical lateral surface is here designated 302. In contrast to the curling element 101, according to FIG. 1, the curling element 301 has only one notch 303.

Das Lockenwickelelement 301 ist wiederum im Bereich seiner Enden 306 und 305 verjüngt. Figur 4 zeigt ein weiteres Lockenwickelelement 401. Die Umhüllende 402 ist hier eine Zylindermantelfläche, deren Radius sich hier entlang der Zylindermantelfläche verjüngt. Die Umhüllende 402 weist hier also eine Kegelstumpfform auf.The curling element 301 is in turn tapered in the region of its ends 306 and 305. FIG. 4 shows another curling element 401. The envelope 402 is here Cylinder surface whose radius tapers along the cylinder surface. The Envelope 402 thus has here a truncated cone shape.

Es ist wiederum eine ringförmige Einkerbung 403 vorhanden sowie die Verjüngungen an den Enden 405 und 406. Die Übergänge sind wiederum gerundet. Again, there is an annular notch 403 and the tapers at the ends 405 and 406. The transitions are in turn rounded.

Durch die Verjüngung der Umhüllenden 402 entlang der Länge des Zylinders ergibt sich, dass die beiden Ellipsoide, die durch die Einkerbung 403 sowie die Verjüngungen an den Enden 405 und 406 entstehen, unterschiedliche Halbmesser haben. Dadurch wird es wiederum möglich, die Durchmesser der Locken beim Aufwickeln einer Haarsträhne entsprechend zu variieren.By tapering the envelope 402 along the length of the cylinder, it follows that the both ellipsoids passing through the notch 403 as well as the tapers at the ends 405 and 406 arise, have different radius. This will in turn make possible the diameters the curls when winding a strand of hair to vary accordingly.

Figur 5 zeigt das Lockenwickelelement 401 nach der Figur 4 in Draufsicht. Der Kreis 501 entspricht dem Radius am oberen Ende 406. Der Kreis 502 entspricht dem Halbmesser des oberen Ellipsoids, das sich durch die Verjüngung am oberen Ende 406 sowie durch die Einkerbung 403 ergibt.FIG. 5 shows the curling element 401 according to FIG. 4 in plan view. The circle 501 corresponds the radius at the upper end 406. The circle 502 corresponds to the radius of the upper ellipsoid, the resulting from the taper at the top 406 and the notch 403.

Die Linie 503 ist ebenfalls im wesentlichen kreisförmig dargestellt. Diese Linie entspricht der Umfangslinie des Halbmessers des unteren Ellipsoids, das durch die Einkerbung 403 sowie die Verjüngung am unteren Ende 405 gebildet wird. Es ist weiterhin zu sehen, dass die Linie 503 abweichend von der Kreisform so dargestellt ist, dass das untere Ellipsoid an zwei sich gegenüber liegenden Seiten abgeplattet ist. Dadurch kann wiederum der Durchmesser der Locken beim Aufwickeln einer Harrsträhne variiert werden.The line 503 is also shown substantially circular. This line corresponds to the Circumference of the radius of the lower ellipsoid, by the notch 403 and the Rejuvenation is formed at the lower end 405. It can also be seen that the line 503 deviating from the circular shape is shown so that the lower ellipsoid is opposite to two flattened pages is flattened. This in turn can reduce the diameter of the curls Winding a Harrsträhne be varied.

Es ist ebenso möglich, auch bei dem oberen Ellipsoid eine entsprechenden Abplattung vorzusehen. Diese Abplattung kann auch bei den anderen gezeigten Ausführungsbeispielen verwendet werden.It is also possible to provide a corresponding flattening even in the upper ellipsoid. This flattening can also be used in the other embodiments shown.

Figur 7 zeigt ein Lockenwickelelement 701. Dieses Lockenwickelelement 701 weist beginnend an seinem einen Ende 705 zunächst eine zylindrische Form auf. Ab einer bestimmen Umfangslinie 707 verjüngt sich der Radius dieses Zylinders bis zum anderen Ende 706 des Lockenwickelelements 701, so dass ab dieser Umfangslinie 707 ein Kegelstumpf entsteht.FIG. 7 shows a curling element 701. This curling element 701 points starting his one end 705 initially a cylindrical shape. From a certain perimeter 707 the radius of this cylinder tapers to the other end 706 of the curling element 701, so that from this perimeter 707 a truncated cone arises.

Es ist dann möglich, einen Teil der Haarsträhne auf dem zylindrischen Teil des Lockenwickelelements 701 aufzuwickeln und einen Teil der Haarsträhne auf dem kegelstumpfförmigen Teil des Lockenwickelelements 701. Der Radius der entstehenden Locken ändert sich beim Aufwickeln der Haarsträhne auf dem kegelstumpfförmigen Teil des Lockenwickelelements 701 derart, dass der Radius der Locken bei dem Teil der Haarsträhne geringer ist, der näher an dem Ende 706 des Lockenwickelelementes 701 aufgewickelt wurde.It is then possible to have a part of the strand of hair on the cylindrical part of the curling element 701 and a portion of the strand of hair on the frustoconical part of the Curling element 701. The radius of the resulting curls changes when winding the Hair strand on the frusto-conical part of the curling element 701 such that the radius the curl is less at the portion of the strand of hair closer to the end 706 of the Curling element 701 was wound up.

Figur 6 zeigt das Lockenwickelelement 701 der Figur 7 in Draufsicht. Der Kreis 601 entspricht dem Radius am oberen Ende 706 des Lockenwickelelementes 701. Der Kreis 602 entspricht dem Radius an der Umfangslinie 707, der dem Radius am unteren Ende 705 entspricht. FIG. 6 shows the curling element 701 of FIG. 7 in plan view. The circle 601 corresponds to the Radius at the upper end 706 of the curler 701. The circle 602 corresponds to the radius the circumferential line 707, which corresponds to the radius at the lower end 705.

Figur 9 zeigt ein weiteres Lockenwickelelement 901. Dieses Lockenwickelelement 901 ist beginnend von seinem unteren Ende 905 zum anderen Ende 906 hin verjüngt, so dass dieses Lockenwickelelement 901 kegelstumpfförmig ausgebildet ist.FIG. 9 shows another curling element 901. This curling element 901 is beginning tapered from its lower end 905 to the other end 906, so this Curling element 901 is frusto-conical.

Figur 8 zeigt die äußere Form am oberen Ende 906 in Draufsicht, Figur 10 zeigt eine Draufsicht auf das untere Ende 905 des Lockenwickelelements 901. Den Darstellungen der Figuren 8 und 10 ist zu entnehmen, dass das Lockenwickelelement 901 an zwei Seitenflächen abgeplattet ist.Figure 8 shows the outer shape at the upper end 906 in plan view, Figure 10 shows a plan view the lower end 905 of the curler 901. The illustrations of Figures 8 and 10 is to It can be seen that the curling element 901 is flattened on two side surfaces.

Es ist beispielsweise ebenso möglich, eine entsprechenden Abplattung bei dem Lockenwickelelement 701 vorzusehen.It is also possible, for example, a corresponding flattening in the curling element 701 to provide.

Figur 11 zeigt ein weiteres Lockenwickelelement 1101. Dieses Lockenwickelelement 1101 hat eine zylindrische Grundform. Auf dieser Oberfläche ist eine schraubenlinienförmige Einkerbung 1103 vorhanden. Diese schraubenlinienförmige Einkerbung läuft nicht über die gesamte Oberfläche des Lockenwickelelementes 1101 sondern nur über einen Teil. Vorteilhaft ist die Einkerbung 1103 an ihren Enden so gestaltet, dass diese kontinuierlich in die Zylindermantelfläche übergeht. Wie weiterhin zu sehen ist, sind auch die seitlichen Begrenzungen der Einkerbung 1103 abgerundet.FIG. 11 shows another curling element 1101. This curling element 1101 has a curling element 1101 cylindrical basic shape. On this surface is a helical notch 1103 available. This helical notch does not run over the entire surface of the Curling element 1101 but only over a part. The notch 1103 is advantageous their ends designed so that it merges continuously into the cylinder surface. As It can also be seen that the lateral boundaries of the notch 1103 are also rounded.

Figur 12 zeigt ein Lockenwickelelement 1201 mit einer Einkerbung 1203. Im Unterschied zur Figur 11 verjüngt sich die zylindrische Grundform des Lockenwickelelementes 1201 zu deren einem Ende 1206 hin.FIG. 12 shows a curling element 1201 with a notch 1203. In contrast to FIG 11, the cylindrical basic shape of the curling element 1201 tapers to one end thereof In 1206.

Figur 13 zeigt ein Lockenwickelelement 1301. Dieses Lockenwickelelement 1301 weist an jedem seiner beiden Enden eine Verlängerung 1308 auf, die als Halteelement wirkt. Diese Verlängerung 1308 ist biegeelastisch, wobei diese in der gebogenen Form stabil bleibt. Beispielsweise kann diese Verlängerung aus Kupferdraht bestehen, der mit Kunststoff ummantelt ist. Derartiger Kupferdraht ist beispielsweise aus der Elektroinstallation bekannt. Es haben sich dabei Querschnittsflächen des Kupferdrahtes in der Größenordnung von 1,5 mm2 bewährt.Figure 13 shows a curling element 1301. This curling element 1301 has at each of its two ends an extension 1308 which acts as a holding element. This extension 1308 is flexurally elastic, which remains stable in the bent shape. For example, this extension may consist of copper wire, which is coated with plastic. Such copper wire is known for example from the electrical installation. It cross-sectional areas of the copper wire in the order of 1.5 mm 2 have proven.

Der Kupferdraht kann an den Enden des Lockenwickelelements 1301 befestigt werden. Es ist ebenso möglich, einen Kupferdraht durch das Lockenwickelelement 1301 hindurchzuführen. Das Lockenwickelelement 1301 kann beispielsweise aus Kunststoff bestehen. The copper wire may be attached to the ends of the curler 1301. That `s how it is it is possible to pass a copper wire through the curler 1301. The Curling element 1301 may be made of plastic, for example.

Das Lockenwickelelement 1301 in der Darstellung der Figur 13 ist deshalb strichliniert gezeichnet, um zum Ausdruck zu bringen, dass alle in Frage kommenden Lockenwickelelemente nach dem Eindrehen durch ein entsprechenden Verbiegen des Kupferdrahtes gehalten werden können. Dies betrifft insbesondere auch andere Lockenwickelelemente als die, die im Zusammenhang mit den anderen Figuren erläutert worden sind. Durch das Verbiegen der Verlängerung 1308 nach dem Eindrehen der Lockenwickelelemente 1301 in die Haarsträhne wirken diese als Halteelement, die ein Aufdrehen des Lockenwickelelements 1301 verhindern.The curling element 1301 in the illustration of FIG. 13 is therefore drawn in a dashed line in order to to express that all eligible curling elements after screwing can be held by a corresponding bending of the copper wire. this concerns in particular, other curling elements than those associated with the others Figures have been explained. By bending the extension 1308 after screwing the Curling elements 1301 in the hair strand act as a holding element, the untwisting of the Prevent curling element 1301.

Die Lockenwickelelemente können jedoch auch in bekannter Art und Weise durch ein Gummiband gehalten werden, das sich vom einen Ende des Lockenwickelelementes zum anderen Ende erstreckt und an den beiden Enden befestigbar ist.However, the curling elements can also in a known manner by a rubber band are held, which extends from one end of the curler to the other end and attachable to both ends.

Figur 14 zeigt eine weitere Ausgestaltung des Lockenwickelelementes gemäß der Darstellung der Figur 4. Im Unterschied zu dem Lockenwickelelement der Darstellung nach Figur 4 ist bei der Darstellung nach Figur 14 zu sehen, dass die Verjüngungen an den Enden 1405 und 1406 so ausgeprägt sind, dass die Radien an den Enden 1405 sowie 1406 geringer sind als der Radius an der Einkerbung 1403. Die beiden sich ergebenden Ellipsoide zwischen der Einkerbung 1403 und dem Ende 1406 sowie zwischen der Einkerbung 1403 und dem Ende 1405 können wieder unterschiedlich groß sein. Die umhüllende Zylindermantelfläche 1402 verjüngt sich wiederum von dem einen Ende 1405 zu dem anderen Ende 1406. Dabei kann wiederum eines der Ellipsoide oder auch beide Ellipsoide abgeplattet sein.FIG. 14 shows a further embodiment of the curling element according to the illustration of FIG Figur 4. In contrast to the curling element of the illustration of Figure 4 is in the Representation of Figure 14 to see that the tapers at the ends 1405 and 1406 so are pronounced that the radii at the ends 1405 and 1406 are less than the radius at the Notch 1403. The two resulting ellipsoids between the notch 1403 and the End 1406 as well as between the notch 1403 and the end 1405 may again be different be great. The enveloping cylinder surface 1402 in turn tapers from one end 1405 to the other end 1406. Again, one of the ellipsoids or both Be flattened ellipsoids.

Die gezeigten Lockenwickelelemente können in beliebigen Größen ausgeführt werden. Als vorteilhaft haben sich Lockenwickelelemente erwiesen, deren Gesamtlänge einige Zentimeter beträgt. Diese Gesamtlänge kann beispielsweise zwischen 5 cm und 10 cm betragen. Die Durchmesser können ebenfalls einige Zentimeter betragen und beispielsweise zwischen 1 cm und etwa 5 cm liegen. Die Einkerbungen können gegenüber der Zylindermantelfläche ein Tiefe von einigen Zentimetern aufweisen, die beispielsweise etwa 1 cm bis 2 cm beträgt. Die Verjüngungen an den Enden können gegenüber den Maximaldurchmessern um etwa bis zu 1 cm verringert werden. Im Ausführungsbeispiel der Figur 14 ist auch zu sehen, dass diese Verjüngungen stärker ausgeprägt sein können und etwa auch mehrere Zentimeter betragen können. In dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel der Figur 14 wurde der Durchmesser des unteren Ellipsoids zum Ende 1405 hin um etwa 2 cm bis 3 cm verjüngt. Figur 15 zeigt ein Halteelement 1501, das ein Rohrstück 1502 aufweist sowie ein Teil 1503 aus einem elastischen Material. Dieses Teil 1503 ist so beschaffen, dass es im entspannten Zustand vollständig in dem Rohrstück 1502 verschwindet, wobei das Teil zum Spannen und Befestigen noch greifbar sein soll. Dazu ist das Teil 1503 an dem in der Zeichnung rechten Ende des Rohrstücks 1502 befestigt. Das Teil 1503 ist dann so bemessen, dass es im entspannten Zustand nicht länger ist als das Rohrstück 1502. Gleichzeitig muss das Teil 1503 noch auf eine Länge ausziehbar sein, die in etwa das Doppelte der Länge des Rohrstücks 1502 beträgt. Dadurch kann das Teil 1503 so weit aus dem Rohrstück 1502 heraus gezogen werden, dass es außen um das Rohrstück 1502 sowie die darum gewickelten Haare gelegt werden kann und wiederum mit seinem vorderen Ende 1504 an der in der Zeichnung rechten Seite des Halteelements 1501 oder an dem entsprechenden Ende des Lockenwickelelements befestigt werden kann.The curling elements shown can be made in any size. As advantageous curling elements have proven their total length is a few centimeters. These Total length can be for example between 5 cm and 10 cm. The diameters can also be a few centimeters and, for example, between 1 cm and about 5 cm. The Notches can have a depth of a few centimeters relative to the cylinder surface have, for example, about 1 cm to 2 cm. The tapers on the ends can be reduced compared to the maximum diameters by about up to 1 cm. in the Embodiment of Figure 14 can also be seen that these tapers are more pronounced can and can amount to about several centimeters. In the embodiment shown 14, the diameter of the lower ellipsoid has become about 2 cm to 3 towards the end 1405 cm rejuvenated. FIG. 15 shows a retaining element 1501 which has a tubular piece 1502 and a part 1503 made of one elastic material. This Part 1503 is designed to be fully seated in the relaxed state the pipe section 1502 disappears, the part for clamping and fixing still be tangible should. For this purpose, the part 1503 is attached to the right in the drawing end of the pipe section 1502. The Part 1503 is then sized so that it is no longer in the relaxed state than the pipe section 1502. At the same time, part 1503 still has to be extendible to a length that is about double the length of the pipe section 1502 is. As a result, the part 1503 can be pulled out of the pipe section 1502 so far that it outside around the pipe section 1502 and the hair wrapped around it can be placed and turn with its front end 1504 at the right in the drawing page of the holding member 1501 or at can be attached to the corresponding end of the curling element.

Figur 15 ist zu entnehmen, dass das Rohrstück 1502 zumindest auf einem Teil seiner Länge eine solche Aufweitung des Innendurchmessers aufweist, dass das Rohrstück 1502 genug Aufnahmeraum für das Teil 1503 im entspannten Zustand bietet.Figure 15 it can be seen that the pipe section 1502 at least over part of its length a such expansion of the inner diameter has that the pipe section 1502 enough space for the part 1503 in the relaxed state offers.

Figur 15 zeigt weiterhin, wie das Rohrstück 1502 in ein Lockenwickelelement 1505 eingebettet ist. Das Rohrstück 1502 kann beispielsweise beim Herstellen in das Lockenwickelelement 1505 eingegossen werden.Figure 15 further shows how the tube 1502 is embedded in a curler 1505. The tube piece 1502 may, for example, when manufactured in the curler 1505 be poured.

Das Teil 1503 kann beispielsweise ein Gummiband sein. Soweit erforderlich kann dieses noch nach Art einer Spiralfeder aufgewickelt sein, um die notwendige Verkürzung im nicht mit Zug belasteten Zustand zu unterstützen.The part 1503 may be, for example, a rubber band. If necessary, this can still after Be wound up type of a spiral spring to the necessary shortening in not loaded with train State support.

Weiterhin kann an dem hinteren Ende des Teils 1503 ein Befestigungselement 1506 angebracht sein. Dieses Befestigungselement 1506 kann so ausgebildet sein, dass durch dieses Befestigungselement 1506 verhindert wird, dass das Teil 1503 in das Rohrstück 1502 hineinrutscht. Dazu kann das Befestigungselement einen größeren Durchmesser aufweisen als der Innendurchmesser des Rohrstücks im entsprechenden Endbereich des Rohrstücks 1502, der in der Zeichnung rechts dargestellt ist. Weiterhin kann das Befestigungselement 1506 so ausgebildet sein, dass an dem Befestigungselement 1506 am hinteren Ende des Teils 1503 im gespannten Zustand das vordere Ende 1504 des Teil 1503 befestigbar ist. Vorteilhaft ist es auch, wenn das Rohrstück 1502 an dem Ende, an dem das Teil 1503 aus dem Rohrstück 1502 heraustritt (in der Zeichnung links dargestellt), eine trichterförmige Verbreiterung aufweist, wobei weiterhin vorteilhaft die Kanten abgerundet sind. Dadurch können beim Spannen des Teils 1503 zur Befestigung des Lockenwickelelements 1505 Abknickungen in dem Teil 1503 vermieden werden, die ansonsten die Lebensdauer verkürzen könnten, weil das Teil 1503 im Bereich dieser Abknickungen stark belastet würde. Durch die trichterförmige Verbreiterung kann vermieden werden, dass das Teil 1503 vollständig in das Lockenwickelelement 1505 hinein rutscht.Furthermore, a fastening element 1506 may be attached to the rear end of the part 1503. This fastener 1506 may be formed so that by this fastener 1506, the part 1503 is prevented from slipping into the pipe 1502. This can do that Fastener have a larger diameter than the inner diameter of Pipe section in the corresponding end portion of the pipe section 1502, the right in the drawing is shown. Furthermore, the fastener 1506 may be formed so that on the Fastener 1506 at the rear end of the part 1503 in the tensioned state, the front end 1504 of the part 1503 is fastened. It is also advantageous if the pipe section 1502 at the end at which the part 1503 from the Pipe section 1502 emerges (shown on the left in the drawing), a funnel-shaped widening , wherein further advantageously the edges are rounded. This can be done while tightening the Part 1503 for attachment of the curling element 1505 kinks in the part 1503th avoided, which otherwise could shorten the life span, because the part 1503 in the area These kinks would be heavily loaded. By the funnel-shaped widening can be avoided that the part 1503 completely in the Curling element 1505 slips inside.

Figur 16 zeigt verschiedene Ausführungsmöglichkeiten für das Teil 1503 aus dem elastischen Material.Figure 16 shows various possible embodiments of the part 1503 from the elastic Material.

Beispielsweise kann dieses Teil eine stufenförmige Verbreiterung aufweisen, wie dies im Zusammenhang mit der Bezugsziffer 1602 dargestellt ist. Das mit der Bezugsziffer 1602 bezeichneteFor example, this part may have a stepped widening, as in the Related to the reference numeral 1602 is shown. The designated by the reference numeral 1602

Teil weist an seinem hinteren Ende eine ringförmige Öse auf. Mit dieser ringförmigen Öse kann das Teil gehalten werden, wenn dieses auf Zug beansprucht wird. Dazu muss die ringförmige Öse größer sein als der Innendurchmesser der Öffnung in dem Lockenwickelelement. Dadurch kann dann ein Durchrutschen des Teils verhindert werden. Wird das Teil auf Zug belastet, dehnt sich der hintere, dünnere Bereich stärker aus als der vordere Bereich. Vorteilhaft wird also der Bereich, der über die Haare und das Lockenwickelelement außen gespannt wird, weniger stark gedehnt als der Bereich, der sich innerhalb des Lockenwickelelementes befindet. Dadurch wird vorteilhaft vermieden, dass Haare eventuell beschädigt werden. Weiterhin weist das Teil 1602 an seinem vorderen Ende ein Loch 1604 auf, mit dem das Teil im gespannten Zustand an einem Haken des Lockenwickelelements befestigbar ist.Part has at its rear end on an annular eyelet. With this ring-shaped eyelet that can Part be held when this is claimed on train. For this, the ring-shaped eyelet must be larger be as the inner diameter of the opening in the curler element. This can then be a Slipping of the part can be prevented. If the part is loaded on train, the rear, Thinner area stronger than the front area. Advantageously, therefore, the area that over the Hair and the curling element is stretched outside, less stretched than the area that is located within the curling element. This advantageously avoids that hair may be damaged. Furthermore, the part 1602 has a hole 1604 at its front end on, with the part in the tensioned state fastened to a hook of the curling element is.

Entsprechend der Darstellung 1601 kann das Teil auch über die gesamte Länge einen größeren Innendurchmesser aufweisen. Bei dieser Darstellung des Teils ist weiterhin zu sehen, dass das Befestigungselement 1506 zwei Haken aufweist, an denen das Loch 1604 des vorderen Teils im gespannten Zustand eingehängt werden kann.According to illustration 1601, the part can also have a larger one over the entire length Inner diameter have. In this representation of the part can also be seen that the Fastener 1506 has two hooks on which the hole 1604 of the front part in tensioned state can be hung.

Entsprechend der Darstellung der Figur 17 kann das Lockenwickelelement 1701 betreffend die Durchbohrung im Inneren mit Verstärkungsrippen 1702 versehen werden. Sofern diese Verstärkungsrippen 1702 aus einem hinreichend harten Kunststoff sind, kann die Wand der Durchbohrung auch aus diesem Material gefertigt werden. Das Halteelement kann dann vorab fertig gestellt werden und beim Herstellen des Lockenwickelelementes eingefügt werden.As shown in FIG. 17, the curling element 1701 may be referred to Through hole are provided inside with reinforcing ribs 1702. If this Reinforcing ribs 1702 are made of a sufficiently hard plastic, the wall of the Through hole can also be made of this material. The holding element can then be ready in advance be placed and inserted when making the curling element.

Sofern das Teil aus dem elastischen Material ein Befestigungsteil entsprechend der Bezugsziffer 1506 oder 1508 aufweist, kann in der Durchbohrung an einem Ende vorteilhaft eine entsprechende Aufnahme 1704 ausgebildet werden. Das Teil aus dem elastischen Material wird als durch die entsprechenden Befestigungsteile 1506, 1508 in der entsprechenden Aufnahme 1704 gehalten.Das Lockenwickelelement kann vorteilhaft einen Haken 1703 aufweisen, in den das Loch 1604 in dem vorderen Bereich des Teils aus dem elastischen Material eingehängt werden kann.Provided that the part of the elastic material, a fastening part according to the reference numeral 1506th or 1508 may be advantageous in the through hole at one end a corresponding receptacle 1704 are formed. The part of the elastic material is than through the corresponding fasteners 1506, 1508 in the corresponding receptacle 1704 held. The curling element may advantageously have a hook 1703, in which the hole 1604 can be hung in the front region of the part of the elastic material.

Vorteilhaft ist weiterhin das Material selbst oder aufgrund seiner Formgebung so beschaffen, dass sich der Bereich des Teils, der sich im gespannten Zustand in dem Lockenwickelelement befindet, stärker ausgedehnt wird als der Bereich, der sich außerhalb des Lockenwickelelementes befindet. Vorteilhaft ist dieses Teil zumindest in dem Bereich, der sich im gespannten Zustand außerhalb des Lockenwickelelementes befindet, so ausgebildet, dass dort keine scharfen oder harten Kanten sind, um Druckstellen im Haar oder Beschädigungen zu vermeiden.Advantageously, the material itself or due to its shape is such that the area of the part which is in the tensioned state in the curling element stronger is expanded as the area that is outside the curling element. Advantageous this part is at least in the area that is outside of the tensioned state Curling element is so formed that there are no sharp or hard edges to Pressure points in the hair or damage to avoid.

Im vorderen Bereich ist das Teil aus dem elastischen Material verbreitert, um ein Hineinrutschen in die Öffnung des Lockenwickelelementes zu vermeiden.
