  However, in the hair holding device, since a force in the winding direction is applied to the stretched tubular body, it is not easy to insert and arrange hair into the tubular body.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a hair holding tool that can wind hair without performing a winding operation and can easily arrange hair on a holding body such as a cylindrical body.

  The present invention comprises a holding body formed so as to be able to hold a hair bundle from one end to the other end, and the holding body is wound into a predetermined winding shape and maintains an extended state. The above object is achieved by providing a hair holding device that is made possible.

  According to the hair holding tool of the present invention, the hair can be wound up without performing a winding operation, and the hair can be easily arranged on a holding body such as a cylindrical body.

Hereinafter, the hair holding device of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2 with respect to a first embodiment which is a preferred embodiment thereof.
The hair holder 1 of this embodiment consists of the holding body 2 formed so that the hair bundle H (refer FIG. 3) may be arrange | positioned toward the other end from one end, as shown in FIG.1 and FIG.2. The holding body 2 is wound in a predetermined winding shape and can be maintained in an extended state. Specifically, the holding body 2 is formed of a flat cylindrical body constituted by the sheets 3 and 4 so that the hair bundle H can be inserted from the opening 21 at one end toward the opening 22 at the other end.

The hair holder 1 of this embodiment will be described in detail. As shown in FIG. 1, the cylindrical body 2 in the hair holding tool 1 of the present embodiment includes a sheet (hereinafter also referred to as “one-side sheet”) 3 that forms one surface and a sheet (hereinafter “other-surface sheet”) that forms the other surface. 4). Both sheets 3 and 4 are belt-like sheets, and both end portions thereof are bonded to each other to form a flat cylindrical body 2.
The size of the cylindrical body 2 is appropriately selected according to the length of the hair, the place where the hair is desired to be worn, and the amount of the hair bundle to be inserted.

As the sheet forming the cylindrical body 2, various flexible materials are used, for example, non-woven fabric, woven fabric, knitted fabric, porous or non-porous resin film, paper, resin net, or a composite thereof. Can be mentioned. In the present embodiment, a low-rigidity nonwoven fabric is used so as not to hinder the winding force by a spiral spring (described later).
Although the thickness of a sheet | seat is not specifically limited, Preferably it is 5 micrometers-500 micrometers.

  As shown in FIG. 1 (b), a flat cylindrical bag portion 6 is provided at the center in the width direction of the inner surface of the single-sided sheet 3 of the cylindrical body 2 so as to extend in the longitudinal direction of the cylindrical body 2. It has been. The cylindrical bag portion 6 is formed from the inner surface of the one-sided sheet 3 and an inner surface sheet 61 provided on the inner surface. The cylindrical bag portion 6 has a shape that can accommodate a spiral spring 5 (described later), and has a shape that the spiral spring 5 can be held movably in the longitudinal direction inside the cylindrical bag portion 6. Is preferred. Moreover, the longitudinal direction both ends of the cylindrical bag part 6 are sealed, and the spiral spring 5 does not fall off.

In the hair holder 1 of this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the spiral spring 5 is accommodated in the said cylindrical bag part 6, and the longitudinal direction of this cylindrical body 2 is extended to the cylindrical body 2. As shown in FIG. It is arranged along the direction.
When the cross section of the spiral spring 5 is linear as shown in FIG. 2C, the spiral spring 5 is spirally (rolled) with the upper surface 51 inside as shown in FIG. 2D. It is made to roll up. On the other hand, the spiral spring 5 is extended from the spiral shape shown in FIG. 2 (d) to the extended state shown in FIG. 2 (a), and the cross section in the width direction is rolled up as shown in FIG. 2 (b). By deforming into a convex shape (convex shape from the lower surface 52 toward the upper surface 51) in the direction opposite to the direction, the spiral spring 5 which is going to wind up in a spiral shape is restrained, and the stretched state can be maintained. ing. Further, in the state where the spiral spring 5 is maintained in the extended state, the cross section thereof is linearly deformed as shown in FIG. 2C, thereby releasing the constraint on the spiral spring 5, and FIG. ) As shown in FIG.

The spiral spring 5 having such characteristics can be obtained, for example, by applying the above-described two types of squeezing to a single plate, and two or more plates having a single type of squeezing can be obtained. It can also be obtained by laminating.
As the spiral spring 5, various materials can be used as long as they are wound in a spiral shape and can be maintained in an expanded state by deforming the cross section in the width direction into a convex shape after the expanded state. For example, a metal spring, a resin spring, etc. are mentioned. In the present embodiment, a metal spring is used in consideration of the strength of the winding force in a spiral shape, durability, and the like. The spring may be coated with a resin for the purpose of preventing corrosion.

The length of the spiral spring 5 is preferably 80% or more of the length of the cylindrical body 2 in order to obtain a smooth winding shape of the cylindrical body 2.
In the hair holder 1 of this embodiment, since the spiral spring 5 is provided in the cylindrical body 2 with the above-described configuration, the cylindrical body 2 has a predetermined winding shape (this In the embodiment, it is wound in a spiral shape) and is maintained in the extended state as the spiral spring 5 is maintained in the extended state.
The hoisting force of the spiral spring 5 needs to be large enough to wind up the tubular body 2 with the hair bundle inserted without performing the hoisting operation. The rigidity and length of the sheet forming the tubular body 2 are required. The length is selected as appropriate according to the length, width, length of the hair, the place where the hair is desired to be combed, the amount of the hair bundle to be inserted, and the like.
In the present invention, the term “winding” generally means that the hair is given a predetermined touch, and includes, for example, bending and bending in addition to the original winding.

Next, as one usage of the first embodiment of the hair holder of the present invention, a case where curling is directly applied to hair (head hair) by permanent treatment will be described with reference to FIG.
Depending on the amount of the hair bundle H and the curl shape to be obtained, a hair holder 1 comprising a cylindrical body 2 having an appropriate length and width is used.
When the cylindrical body 2 is in the wound state shown in FIG. 1 (c), the cylindrical body 2 is extended together with the spiral spring 5, and in this state, the spiral spring 5 in the cylindrical bag portion 6 is extended to its width. The directional section is deformed so as to have a convex shape opposite to the winding direction shown in FIG. Thereby, the extended state of the spiral spring 5 is maintained, and the cylindrical body 2 is maintained in the extended state.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 3A, the opening 21 at one end of the cylindrical body 2 is opened in an elliptical shape, and the hair bundle H is inserted from the opening 21. Then, the hair bundle H is inserted through the tubular body 2 until the tip protrudes slightly from the opening 22 at the other end of the tubular body 2.

  After the hair bundle H is inserted through the cylindrical body 2, a cross-section in the width direction of the spiral spring 5 in the cylindrical bag portion 6 is shown in FIG. It is deformed into a straight line as shown in c), and the restriction on the winding of the spiral spring 5 is released. Thereby, as shown in FIGS. 3 (c) and 3 (d), the cylindrical body 2 can be moved to the other side of the cylindrical body 2 without performing the winding operation of the cylindrical body 2 by the winding force of the spiral spring 5. From the end opening 22 side, it is wound with a desired winding diameter. Moreover, it is not necessary to use a rod.

Thereafter, a permanent hair treatment agent is applied to the hair bundle H from the outside of the cylindrical body 2. After a predetermined time, the hair bundle H is inserted and removed from the tubular body 2, and the perm treatment is completed by washing the hair.
In addition, when inserting the hair bundle H from the opening part 21 of the cylindrical body 2, it is easier to insert the hair bundle H smoothly if the opening part 21 is opened in a perfect circle as necessary. Further, it is not always necessary that the tip of the hair bundle H protrudes from the opening 22 at the other end of the cylindrical body 2.

  According to the hair holder 1 of this embodiment, the cylindrical body 2 into which the hair bundle H is inserted can be wound up by the winding force of the spiral spring 5 without performing the winding operation. Further, the winding force of the spiral spring 5 can be restrained by deforming the cross section in the width direction of the spiral spring 5 in a convex shape in the direction opposite to the winding direction. The stretched state of the body 2 can be easily maintained, and the hair bundle H can be easily inserted from the opening 21 at one end of the cylindrical body 2.

Further, if the spiral spring 5 is configured so that it cannot move relative to the sheets 3 and 4 forming the cylindrical body 2, when the cylindrical body 2 is wound, due to the influence of the inner and outer diameter differences of the cylindrical body 2. Although the reaction force with respect to the hoisting force of the spiral spring 5 is generated, in the hair holder 1 of the present embodiment, the spiral spring 5 is movable with respect to the sheets 3 and 4 that form the cylindrical body 2. Since the relative position shift occurs, such a reaction force does not occur.
Therefore, according to the hair holder 1 of the present embodiment, the hair H inserted into the tubular body 2 can be wound up without being wound up, and the hair H can be easily inserted into the tubular body 2. be able to

A fold line 31 is formed at the center in the width direction, and the stretched state can be maintained by folding the fold line 31 as shown in FIG.

The single-sided sheet 3 ′ is made of a material having sufficiently higher rigidity than the other-sided sheet 4 ′, and is wound up in a spiral shape.
A fold line 31 is formed on the single-sided sheet 3 ′ at the center in the width direction over the entire length in the longitudinal direction. Therefore, when the single-sided sheet 3 ′ is extended, the winding force of the single-sided sheet 3 ′ is folded when the widthwise cross section is bent into a convex shape opposite to the winding direction along the fold line 31 as shown in FIG. Is restrained so that the stretched state of the single-sided sheet 3 ′ can be maintained as shown in FIG.
Examples of the sheet wound up in a spiral shape include sheets formed of polyacrylonitrile, polystyrene, polyethylene terephthalate, nylon, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polycarbonate, and the like.

The other surface sheet 4 ′ is formed of a material having relatively low rigidity, and, as shown in FIG. 4A, slits 41 extending in the sheet width direction in order to eliminate the distortion caused by the inner and outer diameter differences. Are formed apart from each other in the longitudinal direction of the sheet.
The single-sided sheet 3 ′ and the other-sided sheet 4 ′ are arranged so that the single-sided sheet 3 ′ rolls up with the opposite side to the other-sided sheet 4 ′ inward (see FIG. 4C). The cylindrical body 2 is formed by joining at both side edges of '.
Thus, in 2nd Embodiment, sheet | seat 3 'itself which forms one surface of the cylindrical body 2 is made to wind up spirally, and a cylindrical body is formed like 1st Embodiment. The cylindrical body 2 is wound up even if a separate coil spring is not provided.

In the hair holder 1 of 2nd Embodiment, the cylindrical body 2 is extended | stretched, and as shown in FIG.4 (b), the width direction cross section of single-sided sheet | seat 3 'is the crease | fold 31 in the direction opposite to a winding direction. As shown in FIG. 4A, the expanded state of the cylindrical body 2 can be maintained. Moreover, when the cross section in the width direction is linearly deformed as shown in FIG. 4D, the restraint on the winding force of the single-sided sheet 3 ′ is released, and the rolling-up force of the single-sided sheet 3 ′ is shown in FIG. 4C. Thus, the entire cylindrical body 2 is rolled up.
Thus, since the hair holder 1 of 2nd Embodiment has the characteristic regarding winding up and expansion | extension of a cylindrical body similar to 1st Embodiment, also in the hair holder 1 of 2nd Embodiment.
