Abstract

The molded synthetic material or metal shoe (1) has front parallel separating fingers between which are alternate long (8) and short (9) slots designed to only allow a part of the hair to make contact the cutters and to layer the remainder of the hair under the shoe to prevent is from being cut. The result is that after passage of the clippers (3) parallel bands of cut hair are separated by bands of non cut hair . The shoe is clipped over the cutter head (2) of the hair clippers (3) and is fitted under the shoe (4) on which the cutting blade (5) is mounted. The shoe has a universal fixing which allows it to be fitted to all types of currently known hair cutters. The clip arrangement comprises two flexible tongues (11). The shoe can be used on electric or manual hair cutters and can be used on a hand razor.

Description

<Desc/Clms Page number 1>
La présente invention a pour objet un sabot effileur pour tondeuse ou rasoir capillaire. <Desc / Clms Page number 1>
The subject of the present invention is a tapering shoe for a hair clipper or a hair razor.

II concerne le domaine industriel et commercial de la fabrication et de la diffusion de matériels et d'accessoires pour le traitement des cheveux de femmes d'hommes ou d'enfants, destinés d'une manière générale aux salons de coiffure mais utilisable par les particuliers. It relates to the industrial and commercial field of the manufacture and distribution of equipment and accessories for the treatment of hair for women, men or children, generally intended for hairdressing salons but usable by individuals. .

L'effilage est une opération couramment effectuée par les coiffeurs dans le but de diminuer l'épaisseur de la chevelure ou d'obtenir certains effets visuels particuliers dictés par la mode du moment. Thinning is an operation commonly performed by hairdressers in order to reduce the thickness of the hair or to obtain certain particular visual effects dictated by the fashion of the moment.

A ce jour, il se pratique en amincissant les cheveux mèche par mèche, soit au rasoir, soit à l'aide de ciseaux crantés spéciaux. To date, it is practiced by thinning the hair strand by strand, either with a razor, or using special notched scissors.

Cette opération demande beaucoup de temps et exige un grand savoir faire de l'exécutant. This operation is time consuming and requires a great deal of know-how from the operator.

Le dispositif selon la présente invention a pour objectif de remédier à cet état de choses. II permet en effet de pratiquer l'effilage beaucoup plus rapidement et facilement qu'avec les méthodes actuellement connues, en réduisant par fractions le champ de coupe d'une tondeuse de type courant. The device according to the present invention aims to remedy this state of affairs. It makes it possible to practice tapering much more quickly and easily than with currently known methods, by reducing by fractions the cutting field of a common type of mower.

II est constitué par un sabot intégré à la tondeuse ou se fixant sur une tondeuse existante ou un rasoir à main et comportant des dents séparant des encoches déterminées pour laisser alternativement passer les cheveux vers la lame de coupe, ou au contraire les coucher sous le sabot sans être sectionnés, de façon à obtenir après le passage de la tondeuse des bandes parallèles de cheveux coupés séparées par des bandes de cheveux non coupés. It is constituted by a shoe integrated in the clipper or fixed on an existing clipper or a hand razor and comprising teeth separating determined notches to alternately let the hair pass to the cutting blade, or on the contrary lay them under the hoof without being cut, so as to obtain, after the passage of the clipper, parallel strips of cut hair separated by strips of uncut hair.

Sur les dessins annexés, donnés à titre d'exemples non limitatifs de formes de réalisation de l'objet de l'invention: In the accompanying drawings, given by way of nonlimiting examples of embodiments of the subject of the invention:

la figure 1 représente, vue de côté, la tête d'une tondeuse électrique équipée d'un sabot effileur amovible, la figure 2 est une vue de dessous de la semelle de la tête de tondeuse, la figure 3 montre le sabot seul, les figures 4, 5 et 6 représentent différents types de sabots vus de dessus et les figures 7 et 8 sont des coupes verticales respectivement suivant les flèches F1 et F2 de la figure 3. Figure 1 shows, side view, the head of an electric mower equipped with a removable tapering shoe, Figure 2 is a bottom view of the sole of the mower head, Figure 3 shows the shoe alone, FIGS. 4, 5 and 6 represent different types of shoes seen from above and FIGS. 7 and 8 are vertical sections respectively according to the arrows F1 and F2 of FIG. 3.

Le dispositif, figures 1 à 8, est constitué d'un sabot 1 fixé sur la tête 2 d'une tondeuse 3, au-dessous de la semelle 4 sur laquelle est montée la lame 5 de coupe. The device, Figures 1 to 8, consists of a shoe 1 fixed on the head 2 of a mower 3, below the sole 4 on which is mounted the cutting blade 5.

Le sabot 1 est formé d'un corps 6 comportant à l'avant des séparations 7 verticales parallèles déterminant entre elles une série d'échancrures alternativement longues 8 et courtes 9 dans lesquelles passent les cheveux à traiter lors de l'utilisation de la tondeuse 3. The shoe 1 is formed by a body 6 comprising at the front vertical parallel partitions 7 determining between them a series of alternately long 8 and short 9 notches in which the hair to be treated passes when using the clipper 3 .

Les échancrures longues 8 s'étendent vers l'arrière au-delà des dents 10 de la semelle 4 de la tête 2 de tondeuse, de manière à ce que les cheveux engagés dans ces échancrures puissent passer entre les dents de la semelle 4 pour être coupés par la lame 5 (coupe figure 8). The long indentations 8 extend rearwardly beyond the teeth 10 of the sole 4 of the clipper head 2, so that the hair engaged in these indentations can pass between the teeth of the sole 4 to be cut by the blade 5 (cut figure 8).

Au contraire, la profondeur des échancrures courtes 9 est déterminée pour empêcher les cheveux qui y sont engagés d'être coupés en les rabattant pour les faire passer sous le sabot 1 avant qu'ils n'atteignent les dents 10 de la platine 4 (coupe figure 7). On the contrary, the depth of the short notches 9 is determined to prevent the hair which is engaged therein from being cut by folding them back so that they pass under the shoe 1 before they reach the teeth 10 of the plate 4 (cutting figure 7).

La forme et les dimensions du sabot 1, ainsi que la largeur des échancrures 8, 9 est déterminée en fonction du type de résultat à obtenir. Dans ce but, le sabot 1 existera avantageusement en plusieurs tailles pour permettre un effilage très fin, fin, moyen, large ou très large. The shape and dimensions of the shoe 1, as well as the width of the notches 8, 9 is determined according to the type of result to be obtained. For this purpose, the shoe 1 will advantageously exist in several sizes to allow very fine, fine, medium, wide or very wide tapering.

Le sabot 1 peut être réalisé en tout matériau adapté, et en particulier en métal ou en matière synthétique moulée. The shoe 1 can be made of any suitable material, and in particular of metal or of molded synthetic material.

II pourra être amovible et comporter un système de fixation universel permettant son montage sur toutes les têtes 2 de tondeuses courantes, ce système de fixation pouvant être constitué de languettes 11 latérales flexibles solidaires du corps du sabot ou d'un autre dispositif tel que vis ou encliquetage. It can be removable and include a universal fixing system allowing it to be mounted on all the heads 2 of common mowers, this fixing system being able to consist of flexible lateral tabs 11 secured to the body of the shoe or of another device such as screws or snap.

Le sabot 1 pourra également être intégré à la semelle 4 de la tête 2 de tondeuse et ne former qu'un seul élément avec elle. The shoe 1 can also be integrated into the sole 4 of the mower head 2 and form only one element with it.

La tondeuse 3 peut être aussi bien de type à main que de type électrique. The mower 3 can be both hand type and electric type.

Le sabot selon l'invention peut être conçu pour s'adapter sur la lame d'un rasoir à main grâce à un système de serrage constitué par exemple de lames élastiques formant pince et enserrant la lame. The shoe according to the invention can be designed to fit on the blade of a hand razor thanks to a clamping system consisting for example of elastic blades forming a clamp and enclosing the blade.

Le positionnement des divers éléments constitutifs donne à l'objet de l'invention un maximum d'effets utiles qui n'avaient pas été, à ce jour, obtenus par des dispositifs similaires. The positioning of the various constituent elements gives the object of the invention a maximum of useful effects which had not, to date, been obtained by similar devices.
