 The present invention relates to a hair clip mainly used for pinching hair when a hair is pinched in a beauty salon.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 When setting hair in a beauty salon, pin curl may be performed as shown in FIG. In FIG. 12, 1 is a formed pin curl, and 2 is a hair clip for fixing the pin curl. As shown in FIG. 13, a hair clip 2 used for pin curling generally includes a pair of members (a first member 2a that is a lower side when pinching hair and a second member 2b that is an upper side when pinching hair). Combination). Both the first member 2a and the second member 2b are integrally provided with sandwiching portions 3a, 3b for sandwiching hair and gripping portions 4a, 4b for opening and closing the sandwiching portions 3a, 3b. The member 2a and the second member 2b are connected by the spring portion 5.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, when using such a hair clip for pin curl, there are the following problems. Generally, a pin curl performed in a beauty salon is formed such that a plurality of pin curls are adjacent to each other on the front and side portions of the hair. Therefore, in FIG. 14, when a new pin curl B is to be formed next to the already formed pin curl A, the index finger, middle finger, ring finger, etc. of the hand (right hand) 6 holding the hair clip has already been moved. When the pin curl A is formed, it may disturb the pin curl A. In FIG. 14, 7 is the other (left hand) that holds hair in a bundle to form a pin curl, and the alternate long and short dash line 8 indicates the scalp surface.

As described above, when a new pin curl is stopped, the problem that the hand with the hair clip disturbs the peripheral pin curl that has already been formed often gives the opportunity to work as the number of pin curls increases. Therefore, it will be amplified, and in severe cases, it will also be caught and break the pin curl. Pinker turbulence affects the finishing of the hair set and should be avoided.

Therefore, it is necessary to carry out the pin curl work while being careful not to hit the already formed pin curl as the pin curl progresses, and as the number of pin curls to be formed increases This results in the problem of poor sex. Furthermore, in the conventional hair clip, since the gripping portion 4a and the sandwiching portion 3a of the first member 2a are extended on the same plane, as shown in FIG. 15, the pin curl 1 is held by the hair clip. In, the grip portion of the hair clip, in particular, the grip portion 4a of the first member is in a state of pressing a part of the pin curl 1. FIG. 15A is a view of the pin curl seen from above, and FIG. 15B is a view of the pin curl seen from the side.

[0007] Such a result may impair the fluffy finished state due to the pin curl in the hair set. In order to keep the fluffy finish, it is necessary to clip the hair clip from all directions of the pin curl 1 according to the set state of the hair, when trying to clip so that the gripping part 4a does not hit that part. However, this, combined with the need for the working hand not to touch the surrounding pin curls that have already been formed, sometimes causes the operator to bend the wrist intricately when performing work. In some cases, it was necessary to bend the whole body to make a clip, which was an obstacle to efficiently performing a large number of pin curls.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to prevent a pin curl from being formed on the surrounding pin curl portion when pinching hair for pin curl formation. The purpose is to provide a hair clip that can be pinched so that the hand holding the hair clip does not touch it, and that does not impair the fluffy finish of the pin curl.

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of a hair clip 11 according to the present invention. The hair clip 11 includes a first member 11a having a sandwiching portion 12a that is a lower side of the hair when sandwiching the hair, and a second member 11b having a sandwiching portion 12b that is an upper side of the hair when sandwiching the hair. , Are connected by the spring portion 14. The sandwiching portion 12a of the first member 11a and the sandwiching portion 12b of the second member 11b are combined to form a pair of sandwiching portions 12 for sandwiching the hair, and the spring portion 14 is configured to have the pair of sandwiching portions 12b. Is biased toward closing.

As shown in FIG. 2A, the first member 11a has a gripping portion 13a integrally provided on the other side of the gripping portion 12a, and is provided between the gripping portion 12a and the gripping portion 13a. On both sides, connecting pieces 15, 15 for forming the spring portion 14 are provided so as to project substantially vertically toward the upper side (second member side). The first member 11a is bent in a V shape on the sandwiching portion side with respect to the connecting piece 15, and the angle at which the first member 11a is bent (angle α ₁ between the sandwiching portion 12a and the gripping portion 13a) is not particularly limited. However, it is preferable that the gripping portion is upright with respect to the sandwiching portion 12 so that the thumb and forefinger having the gripping portion 13 can be substantially orthogonal to the sandwiching portion 12 when sandwiching the hair with the pair of sandwiching portions 12. Specifically, about 100 to 140 ° is preferable.

As shown in FIG. 2B, the second member 11b is provided with a grip portion 13b on the other side of the sandwiching portion 12b, and the grip portion 13b, together with the grip portion 13a of the first member, A pair of gripping portions 13 is formed which opens the pair of holding portions 12 against the biasing force of the spring portion 14. Further, in order to configure the spring portion 14 in combination with the first member 11a, the connecting pieces 16 and 16 are directed downward (on the side of the first member) on both side portions between the holding portion 12b and the grip portion 13b. It is projected almost vertically. Similarly to the first member 11a, the second member 11b is also bent in a V shape on the side of the holding portion with respect to the connecting piece 16. The angle at which the dogleg is bent (the angle α ₂ between the sandwiching portion and the gripping portion) is appropriately set according to the angle α _{1 at} which the dogleg of the first member 11a is bent, and is different from that of the first member 11a. Similarly, although not particularly limited, when gripping the hair with the gripping portion 12, the angle at which the gripping portion 13 can be raised so that the thumb and forefinger holding the gripping portion 13 can be substantially orthogonal to the gripping portion 12. Preferably there is.

Further, although the sandwiching portion 12a of the first member 11a is substantially linear, the sandwiching portion 12b of the second member 11b is the first with the hair 18 sandwiched, as shown in FIG. It is preferable that the holding portion 12 in the closed state is gently inclined from the bent portion 17 toward the tip of the holding portion 12a so as to be substantially parallel to the holding portion 12a of the member 11a.

The configuration of the sandwiching portions 12a and 12b is not particularly limited, and may be H-shaped as in the conventional case (see FIG. 13), or even if an opening 19 having a predetermined shape is formed in the central portion. However, depending on the material of the hair clip (for example, aluminum), the rib 20 may be provided at the central portion so as to secure the strength (see FIG. 5). 4 and 5 (a) are plan views of the sandwiching portion, and FIG. 5 (b) is a sectional view taken along line AA of the sandwiching portion of FIG. 5 (a).

The spring portion 14 is a portion that urges the holding portion 12 in the closing direction, and in this embodiment, a torsion coil spring is used. FIG. 6 is an enlarged view of the spring portion 14 and the grip portion 13. The spring portion 14 using the torsion coil spring 21 is configured such that one connecting piece 15 of the first member 11a and the connecting piece 16 of the second member 11b provided so as to face the first connecting piece 15 are overlapped with each other. Two sets of connecting pieces 15 and 16 provided on both sides of each second member 11b are rotatably connected by a shaft 22, and a torsion coil spring 21 is externally fitted to the shaft 22. Since the axial center of the spring portion 14 is provided closer to the grip portion 13 than the bent position 17 is, a hair lip provided at another position between the grip portion 12 and the grip portion 13, Compared to a conventional hair clip in which the first member is not bent in a dogleg shape, the distance between the holding portion 12 and the shaft center becomes longer and the angle θ with respect to the holding portion 12 also becomes larger. Even when it is given, the surface pressure of the holding portion 12 is slightly increased. That is, the force to pinch the hair becomes stronger.

As shown in FIG. 7, the hair clip 11 having such a structure holds the grip portion 13a of the first member 11a with the index finger and holds the grip portion 13b of the second member 11b with the thumb, and the spring portion When a force is applied to the grip portion 13 so as to resist the biasing force of the spring 14, the gripping portion 12 opens. At this time, since the first member 11a is bent in a dogleg shape so that the gripping portion 13 stands up against the gripping portion 12, the gripping portion 13 turns into hair (scalp) when gripping the hair. On the other hand, since it is projected to the front side (worker side) by a predetermined angle, as shown in FIG. 7, the hand (right hand) 25 holding the grip portion 13 has the adjacent pin curl C (pin curl) already formed. It is possible and easy to work without touching C). In FIG. 7, D is a pin curl to be formed, and 26 is a hand (left hand) having hair for forming the pin curl. Moreover, the alternate long and short dash line indicates the scalp surface.

Further, the hand gripping the grip portion 13 of the hair clip 11 of the present invention is not limited to holding the grip portion 13a of the first member 11a with the index finger and the grip portion 13b of the second member 11b with the thumb. As shown in, the gripping portion 13a of the first member 11a can be gripped by the thumb and the gripping portion 13b of the second member 11b can be gripped by the index finger to open the gripping portion 12. In FIG. 8, 27 is the hand holding the hair clip (right hand), C is the already-formed pincal (the hair clip that holds pin curl C is omitted), and D is the pin curl to be formed (hair that forms the pin curl. The holding hand is omitted).

Therefore, conventionally, when the hair clip is to be fastened from the left side (the right side on the paper surface) of the pin curl when viewed from the operator side, it is necessary to bend the wrist in a complicated manner. Then, as shown in FIG. 8, by changing the way of holding the grip portion 13, even when the user wants to fasten the hair clip 11 from the left side (the right side on the paper surface) with respect to the pin curl as seen from the operator side, the wrist should be held. It is possible to clip without holding the hand holding the grip portion 13 against the hair without forcibly bending. That is, by using the hair clip of the present embodiment, the curls around the already formed peripheral curl can be adjusted according to the desired curl state from any angle with respect to the pin curl without damaging the curl with the hands. The worker can comfortably clip the hair clip, improving the workability and efficiency of pin curl.

7 and 8 are diagrams showing a state in which a hair clip is being brought close to a pin curl, the first member, which is the lower side when the hair is sandwiched, is sandwiched. Since the gripping part is bent in a dogleg shape so that the gripping part stands upright with respect to the part, as shown in Fig. 9, even when the hair clip is fastened to the pin curl, the hand holding the gripping part 13 will be pin curled. It is possible to work without hitting the hair.

Even in the state where the pin curl is formed, it is possible to avoid the state where the grip portion 13 presses the upper end portion of the formed pin curl 30, as shown in FIG. FIG. 10A is a view of the pin curl 30 formed by using the hair clip 11 of the present embodiment as seen from above, and FIG. 10B is a view of the pin curl 30 as seen from the side. . In this way, with the conventional clip, the part facing the difficult clip part, that is, the part where the hair forming the pin curl is the gripping part 13 can be fluffy, and as a result, A fluffy overall set can be easily achieved.

Although the present embodiment describes the hair clip used for the pin curl, the present invention is also larger than the hair clip for the pin curl and can be applied to the hair clip used for holding the bundled hair. . FIG. 11 shows an embodiment of the hair clip 31 for fastening hair. In the hair clip 31 for hair clip, the pair of holding portions 32 may be curved in a convex shape toward the pair of holding portions 33 so as to extend along the scalp. Also for such a large hair clip, since the first member 31a and the second member 31b are bent in the same direction in a dogleg shape so that the grip portion 33 stands upright with respect to the holding portion 32, The gripping portion 33 can stand upright with respect to the gripping portion 32, and the hand holding the gripping portion can work from the vertical direction with respect to the scalp surface, and the work for fastening can be facilitated.
