DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Specific embodiments of a hair curler and a method for producing the same according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The sheet-like pile woven fabric used in the present invention is, for example, as shown in FIG.
a is a sheet-like pile woven fabric having a warp arrangement repeatedly arranged at intervals and a weft arrangement having a coarse weaving density, and having a plurality of curved piles 8 erected on one surface.

It is preferable to use a monofilament yarn as the warp yarn 7b of the sheet-like pile woven fabric from the viewpoint of giving appropriate stiffness. As the weft 7c, it is preferable to use a monofilament yarn that is thicker and stronger than the warp yarn 7b. By configuring the warp and weft as described above,
The sheet-like fabric can be easily wound round in the warp direction.

The dense, high-density portion in the warp arrangement of the sheet-like pile woven fabric preferably comprises about 4 to 10 warps, and its width is preferably about 1 to 3 mm.
The high-density portions are repeatedly arranged at intervals substantially equal to the width thereof. However, these widths and intervals do not need to be all the same, and may be changed according to the bent portion and the design.

On the other hand, the weft 7c of the sheet pile fabric is
They are arranged with a coarse weave density. That is, they are arranged at a weave density of about 10 to 20 yarns / cm, which is much coarser than the high-density part.

The pile of the sheet-like pile fabric can be formed by cutting and opening the substantially central tip of the loop pile (as shown in FIG. 8, for example), and has a gently curved pin-like form. . The length of the thread forming the pile 8 is preferably about 1.5 to 4 mm, and the standing density of the pile 8 is 20 to 40 threads / cm for firm engagement with the hair.
^{About 2} is preferable, and about 30 to 36 pieces / cm ² is particularly preferable. When this pile 8 is used as a hair curler, it serves as an engaging element for the hair and the like.

The sheet-like pile fabric is preferably rectangular in that the thickness of the hair curler, that is, the size of the cylinder, can be freely set, but it is longer than a synthetic resin porous body having elasticity. By attaching the loop surface 6 to the surface opposite to the pile surface as shown in FIG. 6,
It is preferable because the hair curler can be prevented from rewinding by engaging the pile loop. FIG. 8 is an enlarged view showing an example of a pile portion, and FIG. 9 is an enlarged view showing an example of a loop portion.

The material of the elastic synthetic resin porous material used in the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it has elasticity and flexibility capable of achieving the object of the present invention. A urethane sponge having excellent rebound resilience and flexibility and having a high porosity can be mentioned as a preferable example. Further, the synthetic resin porous body is preferably a rectangular parallelepiped, and the width thereof is preferably about the same as or slightly smaller than the width of the sheet-like pile fabric.

The length, thickness and the like of the synthetic resin porous body are not particularly limited, and can be freely set according to the physical properties of the synthetic resin porous body and the desired winding shape of the hair curler. However, if the length is shorter than the length of the sheet-like pile fabric, it is easy to handle, and the loop surface 6 for preventing unwinding is easily engaged with the pile surface of the sheet-like pile fabric 1. This is preferable in that respect. Specifically, for a sheet having a length of 18 cm and a width of 6 cm, the synthetic resin porous body preferably has a length of about 11 cm, a width of 6 cm, and a thickness of about 1.5 to 3 cm.

The bag-like material for enclosing the porous synthetic resin used in the present invention is made of vinyl chloride,
Fabrics such as nonwoven fabrics and woven fabrics made of vinyl, such as soft vinyl, synthetic resins such as nylon and polypropylene, natural fibers or synthetic fibers, or mixed fibers thereof, papers, sheets, etc., and these alone or bonded together Either of them can be used, but it is preferable that the inside is made of vinyl chloride and the outside is made of polypropylene because the bag-like material is easily crushed.

It is preferable that the material of the bag is transparent or translucent, since it is easy to see the inside of the synthetic resin porous body, but it is also possible to apply a color or pattern.

In the present invention, the method of enclosing the bag-like material is not particularly limited, but it is preferable to use a seal such as a welder thermocompression bonding so as to prevent air from entering as much as possible.

In the present invention, the term "enclosure" means not only a seal with almost no ingress and egress of air, but also a small amount of air from a hole formed by a sewing needle which is generated when the sheet-like pile fabric is joined by a sewing means or the like after the seal. This shall include the state of inflow.

The volume of the bag is not particularly limited, but is preferably smaller than the maximum volume of the synthetic resin porous body. When the volume is smaller than the maximum volume, since the synthetic resin porous body is compressed in advance by sealing, the deformation of the synthetic resin porous body is reduced at the time of joining with the sheet-like pile fabric, especially by sewing, thereby improving work efficiency. Dramatically improved. Further, since the bulk of the hair curler is reduced, it is preferable in that it is suitable for packaging, transportation, display, storage, and the like.

When a pull handle 4 as shown in FIG. 4 is provided at one end of the bag of the hair curler of the present invention, the bag can be easily crushed without slipping when crushing the bag.

Also, if a hole is made in the handle part 4, etc.,
It can also be used as a hanging hook.

The pulling handle 4 may be any of the remaining three ends (5a, 5b, 5c in FIG. 4 (A)) as long as the end of the bag-shaped material is different from the end connected to the sheet pile fabric. May be provided, for example, at the center of the side (5b) opposite to the end connected to the sheet-like pile fabric. The material of the pull handle is not particularly limited, and the same material as that of the bag-shaped material may be used. Also, without providing a separately manufactured pull handle, a non-woven fabric or sheet or the like having a pull handle provided on one or both sides in advance as a material of the bag-like material may be used to form the synthetic resin porous body. Compression and sealing may be performed. Further, even if the shape of the special pulling handle is not used, the width of the thermocompression bonding portion 5 may be simply made thicker to make it easier to pull as shown in FIG. 4B.

In the present invention, the bag-like material in which the synthetic resin porous body is sealed is bonded to a part of a sheet-like pile fabric, but in order to use it as a hair curler, the synthetic resin porous body has a core. As such, it is necessary to wind the sheet-like pile fabric so that the pile surface is on the outside, and for this purpose, one end of the bag-like material is connected to one end of the sheet-like pile fabric without the pile. However, it is preferable because the winding is easy.

The length and width of the connecting portion need not be so wide as long as they are firmly adhered.

Examples of the method of joining the bag-like material and the sheet-like pile fabric include sewing, welding and thermocompression bonding, and thermocompression bonding includes point bonding, wire bonding, and surface bonding. In doing so, sewing is preferable in that the curler can be wound into a more beautiful cylindrical shape.

As materials used for sewing, there are a sewing thread called a tex, a sewing thread such as a nylon thread, a octopus thread, and the like, but there is no particular limitation. In order to crush the bag-like material using the binding force of sewing in order to take out the body, it is preferable that the yarn is a stronger thread. For example, Tegus is preferable in that it is strong and transparent. However, in the case of continuous production, nylon yarn is preferable because it is difficult to melt even by heat generated by high-speed rotation of the sewing machine and the cost of the yarn itself is low.

The interval of sewing is not particularly limited, but is preferably about 1 to 3 mm in consideration of the strength at the time of crushing the bag-like material and the efficiency of sewing.

In the case of 1 to 2 mm, the interval is small, so that the connection between the bag-like material and the sheet-like pile woven fabric is more reliable, and the force required for crushing the bag-like material is small. In the case of ~ 3mm, the number of holes by the sewing machine is small,
Since the inflow of air can be minimized, it is preferable in that the degree of sealing of the bag is easily maintained.

In the present invention, when one end of the surface of the sheet-shaped pile woven fabric on which the pile is not provided is connected to one end of the elastic synthetic resin porous body sealed in the bag-like material, as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 2A, the bag-like material may simply be put on the sheet-like pile fabric and joined by sewing or the like from above the bag-like material, but as shown in FIG. It is also possible to place the bag-like material while leaving it, fold the sheet so as to wrap one end of the bag-like material, and sew it from above the sheet.

When a bag-like material is simply put on a sheet-like pile fabric and joined by sewing or the like from above the bag-like material, there is no need to fold the sheet, and the slippery bag-like material comes to the upper surface. It is easy to feed, has good productivity, and has the advantage that the bag-shaped material on both the left and right sides of the seam can be removed when the porous material is taken out by crushing the bag-shaped material at the time of use.

On the other hand, when a bag-like material is put on the sheet-like pile fabric while leaving a little end thereof, the sheet is folded so as to wrap one end of the bag-like material, and when sewn from above the sheet, the bag-like material is put on the folded sheet. It is preferable in that the sponge can be positioned by a simple operation of applying the sponge, and since the bag-like material at one end is wrapped with the sheet-like pile fabric after sewing, a higher-grade appearance is obtained as a product.

The hair curler is put to practical use, for example, as follows. That is, first, both ends of the synthetic resin porous body 2 sealed in the bag-like material 3 are held, and FIG.
The bag-like material 3 is crushed in the manner of (B), and the synthetic resin porous body 2 is crushed.
Take out. Next, the hair curler can be obtained by rolling the synthetic resin porous body 2 into a cylindrical shape having a desired thickness with the synthetic resin porous body 2 inside as shown in FIG.
When a large cylindrical hair curler is desired, the synthetic resin porous body may be loosely wound, and when a small cylindrical hair curler is desired, it may be hard and small.

When the synthetic resin porous body 2 taken out of the bag 3 loses its elasticity due to long-time encapsulation (FIG. 3)
(C)), as shown in FIG.
Alternatively, the elasticity of the synthetic resin porous body 2 can be restored and used by blowing hot air of a drier or the like, and thus the synthetic resin porous body 2 can be returned to its original size once, thereby obtaining a desired size. And a column-shaped hair curler can be obtained.

When the bag-like material is made of a soft and easily bendable material, the bag-like material can be rolled as it is without being crushed.

[0042]

The hair curler of the present invention has the advantage that it is easier to manufacture than conventional products, and that no hair debris or the like is adsorbed during the manufacturing. Further, when the volume of the bag-shaped material is smaller than the maximum volume of the synthetic resin porous body, the bulk of the hair curler is reduced,
It is also preferable in that it is suitable for packaging, transportation, display, storage, and the like.
