It is yet another object of the present invention to provide an anatomically correct hair brush that requires less force to comb a user's hair.

[0007] Another object of the present invention is to provide an anatomically correct hair brush with low brush material in the central area of the brush, thereby reducing the force required to comb the hair, and To improve heating and spray drying.

It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a brush with a concave substrate that forms the edges of a concave brush on a generally rectangular brush substrate.

Yet another object of the present invention is to provide an anatomically correct hair brush that allows the user to wind up more hair on the brush due to the hourglass shape of the brush substrate. is there.

[0010] Yet another object of the present invention is to enable the hourglass shape to more closely hold the hair wrapped around the hourglass-shaped brush system.
The aim is to provide an anatomically correct hair brush.

Another object of the present invention is to provide an anatomically correct hair style that produces a bulkier hair style.
Is to provide a brush.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The hairbrush includes an elongated member having a handle segment and a brush substrate segment. The brush substrate forms a cylindrical core having a smoothly curved cylindrical core, a concave central region and a radially larger end region. A plurality of brushes are mounted on the brush substrate. In one preferred embodiment, the lengths of the brushes are approximately equal, and the outer peripheral portion above the plurality of brushes forms a complementary concave shape with a smooth curve to the central region of the concave surface of the brush substrate. are doing. The brush is segmented into groups of small bundles, and a series of these bundles are placed on the peripheral surface of the brush substrate. Each successive bunch of brushes is axially spaced in a common radial plane passing through the axial centerline of the brush. Also disclosed herein is a rectangular brush substrate having a concave shape.

Other objects and advantages of the present invention are:
The following detailed description of the preferred embodiments will become more apparent when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

The present invention relates to a hair brush.

FIG. 1 shows a schematic perspective view of a hairbrush 12, FIG. 2 shows a schematic side view of the hairbrush, and FIG. 3 specifically shows an hourglass-shaped brush substrate segment. 1 shows a schematic view of a hairbrush in which

The figures will now be described in parallel. Similar reference numbers are used in all figures. The brush 12 includes a handle segment 13 and a brush substrate segment 14. As best shown in FIG. 3, the brush substrate 14 has a central region 16 with a smoothly curved concave surface, and a radially larger end region 1.
It has a generally cylindrical core segment having 8,20. The brush substrate 14 has a plurality of brushes 25 on its peripheral surface.

A plurality of brushes 25 are grouped into small bundles, one of which is identified in FIG. Partially a plurality of bundles are axially aligned in rows, such as row 29 shown in FIG. Row of brushes 29
Are linear so that all bundles in a row of brushes lie in a common radial plane extending through the axial centerline of the core. See brush row 31 in FIG. In addition, the angular offset between adjacent radial rows of circumferential or brush reduces the force required to brush through the user's hair and dries the hair faster with a spray dryer. And requires less heat to blow and dry the hair. In addition, the hourglass-shaped concave central region 16 (FIG. 3)
Spray drying time can be reduced, less heat is required to brush the user's hair, and less effort is required. The brush also provides a busier hair style. Angular offset between radial rows also improves scalp massage during brushing sessions.

The hair brush 12 is anatomically configured such that the hourglass-shaped curved concave central region 16 (FIG. 3) generally matches the curve above the user's head.

The handle segment 14 has a continuously curved concave region 40 and radially smaller end regions 42,44.

The brushes have approximately equal lengths 46 and the outer perimeter of the row of brushes forms a smoothly curved concave shape around a central region 50 that complements the hourglass shape 16 of the brush substrate 14.

FIG. 4 shows an elongated, generally rectangular member 44.
1 shows a schematic view of a hair brush 12 comprising
From the perspective view of the member 44, taken along the section line 80'-80 ", the cross-sectional side of the member 44 is generally rectangular in shape. The generally rectangular cross-sectional shape is a cone-shaped portion of the brush substrate segment. It leads to a segment 70. Figure 5 shows the end as a square.

The brush 12 includes a handle segment 78
And a brush substrate segment extending above the region 72. The brush 25 protrudes upwardly from an elongated smoothly curved concave central region 74 of the square shape of the brush substrate segment 72. Concave central region 74 and brush 25 create a plurality of concave brushes in region 76.
The angular offset of the brush 25 in a straight row is shown in FIG.

The brush can be made from wood, plastic, aluminum or other materials. Any combination of these elements can be utilized in the brush. Brushes can be manufactured in different lengths and in different colors.

The appended claims are intended to cover such modifications and variations as fall within the spirit and scope of the invention.
