Definitions

  • the invention relates to hairbrushes and more particularly to a bristle carrier of a hairbrush having improved characteristics.
  • Hairbrush is a stick brush with rigid or soft spokes used in hair care for smoothing, styling, and detangling human hair. Hairbrushes have many types and bristles thereof can have different shapes and/or sizes.
  • U1 discloses a hairbrush for detangling and grooming main hair, comprising a brush body and at least one bristle cushion, plastic bristles and rows of bristle tufts extending spatially separated from the bristle cushion.
  • WO 2013/113014 A1 discloses a hairbrush having a brush head with a working surface, a plurality of monofilament bristles protruding from the working surface of the brush head, and a microfiber material exposed on a portion of the working surface of the brush head.
  • the hairbrush can also have a plurality of bristle tufts protruding from the working surface of the brush head.
  • the hairbrush can also have a bristle carrier connected to the brush head. The plurality of monofilament bristles can be attached to the bristle carrier.
  • DE 10 2014 221 314 A1 discloses a brush configured for removing debris and hairs from the fur of an animal is provided. Included in the brush are at least one surfaced body having a pad, and a plurality of first bristles extending from the pad. One end of each first bristle is connected to the pad, and an opposite free end of each first bristle has a radially extending head portion. At least one additional head portion is disposed in a spaced relationship along a longitudinal axis of the first bristle.
  • US 6,773,076 B1 discloses that during processing of bristles, at least some bristles of a bristle stock are split, along at least part of their length, into several separate partial cross-sections or fingers under the action of mechanical forces.
  • the mechanical forces are applied from different directions with respect to the longitudinal axis of the bristles preferably using a blunt, blade-free tool, e.g. a striking tool.
  • Patent specification US 6,575,174 B2 discloses A hair grooming brush with a plurality or rows of curved wavy bristles, rather than traditional straight bristles found on brushes and combs.
  • the curvature of the bristles produces a springiness to the bristles when pressure is applied during the combing action.
  • the springiness of the numerous rows of bristles translates into a massaging effect upon the hair and scalp.
  • Rows of curved bristles are more effective at untangling the hair.
  • the three different sections of the bristle, the lower, middle and tip sections, can be either straight or curved. Additionally, the rows can alternate between various formations of bristles.
  • the invention provides a hairbrush having the features of claim 1. Further embodiments are subject-matter of the dependent claims.
  • the hairbrush according to the invention comprises a bristle carrier including a surface and a plurality of first and second bristles.
  • the first and second bristles are formed integrally with the surface of the bristle carrier, wherein the first bristles and the second bristles are arranged to have a plurality of different configurations.
  • the hairbrush further comprises a plurality of bristle turfs fastened on the surface, wherein the bristle turfs are disposed externally of the first bristles and the second bristles on the surface.
  • the invention has the following advantages and benefits in comparison with the conventional art: a hairbrush incorporating the bristle carrier is effective in hair care for smoothing, styling, and detangling human or animal hair.
  • a bristle carrier 10 of a hairbrush in accordance with a first preferred embodiment of the invention comprises a surface 101 and a plurality of first and second bristles 11, 12 fastened thereon.
  • the first bristles 11 and the second bristles 12 are arranged in rows and have different configurations.
  • a top end of the first bristle 11 is shaped as a half-sphere.
  • the top end of the first bristle 11 is shaped a sphere (see FIG. 3 ).
  • the first bristles 11 extend upward from the surface 101. Height of the first bristle 11 can be increased to form a first long bristle 111 or shortened to form a first short bristle 112. That is, a distance from a top of the first long bristle 111 to the surface 101 is different from that from a top of the first short bristle 112 to the surface 101. Alternatively, heights of the first bristles 11 are the same. That is, distances from tops of the first bristles 11 to the surface 101 are the same.
  • the first bristles 11 are arranged on the surface 101 in tight rows in which three first long bristles 111 are arranged as a cluster (see FIG. 2A ). Alternatively, the first bristles 11 are arranged in a plurality of clusters consisting of a first long bristle 111 and two first short bristles 112 (see FIG. 2B ).
  • the first bristles 11 and the surface 101 are formed integrally in a mold by injection molding. Thus, the first bristles 11 are secured to the surface 101. Alternatively, the first bristles 11 and the surface 101 are formed in two different molds by injection mold prior to implanting the first bristles 11 perpendicular to the surface 101.
  • the second bristles 12 extend upward from the surface 101.
  • the second bristle 12 further comprises a hook shaped bent member 120 on a top.
  • Height of the second bristle 12 can be increased to form a second long bristle 121 or shortened to form a second short bristle 122. That is, a distance from the bent member 120 of the second long bristle 121 to the surface 101 is different from that from the top end 120 of the second short bristle 122 to the surface 101.
  • heights of the second bristles 12 are the same. That is, distances from the bent members 120 of the second bristles 12 to the surface 101 are the same.
  • each second bristle 12A has two bent members 120 which are oriented in two opposite directions. As shown in FIG. 4 , each second bristle 12B has three bent members 120 equally spaced apart. As shown in FIG. 5 , each second bristle 12C has four bent members 120 equally spaced apart.
  • the second bristles 12 and the surface 101 are formed integrally in a mold by injection molding.
  • the second bristles 12 are secured to the surface 101.
  • the second bristles 12 and the surface 101 are formed in two different molds by injection mold prior to implanting the second bristles 12 in the surface 101.
  • a bristle carrier 10A of a hairbrush in accordance with a second preferred embodiment of the invention comprises a surface 101.
  • the bristle carrier 10A further comprises a plurality of first bristles 11 (including the first long bristles 111 and the first short bristles 112) fastened on the surface 101, a plurality of second bristles 12A fastened on the surface 101, and a plurality of bristle turfs 13A are disposed externally of the first bristles 11 and the second bristles 12 fastened on the surface 101.
  • a bristle carrier 10B of a hairbrush in accordance with a third preferred embodiment of the invention comprises a surface 101.
  • the bristle carrier 10B further comprises a plurality of first bristles 11 (including the first long bristles 111 and the first short bristles 112), a plurality of bristle turfs 113B surrounded the first long bristles 111, all the first long bristles 111, the bristle turfs 113B and the first short bristles 112 fastened on the surface 101, and a plurality of second bristles 12A fastened on the surface 101.
  • each first long bristle 111 is disposed in the bristle turf 113B.
  • a base 20 is further formed on a bottom of the surface 101 of any of the bristle carriers 10, 10A and 10B.
  • a user may hold the base 20 and use the hairbrush to smooth, style, and detangle hair strands.
  • Shapes of the base 20 is not limited to the shown one as long as the base 20 can be secured to the bristle carrier 10, 10A or 10B.
  • a handle 30 is formed and extended from one end of the base 20. A user may hold the handle 30 and use the hairbrush to smooth, style, and detangle hair strands.
