Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 1%, H915.
Application filed March 29, 1915. Serial No. 17,684.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM S. BEOH- TOLD, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Newark, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented oer-1 tain new and useful Improvements in Combs, of which the following'is a specification.
The invention relates to combs, particularly to combs adapted to be worn at the back of the head, as for example a F psyche comb.
It has for its object to so form the teeth of the comb and to associate the same with the body portion thereof that the comb may be held with great security in any position in the hair. To this end, opposite sets of teeth are designed to extend from one edge or a portion of one edge of the comb for insertion into the hair and are so constructed and arranged that they will afford a clamping and locking action upon the hair and prevent the comb from becoming accidentally disengaged or detached therefrom.
The nature of the invention will be best understood when described in connectionwith the in which- Figure 1 is a front elevation of the comb. Fig. 2 is a transverse section therethrough taken on the line 2*2, Fig. 1.
Similar characters of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
Referring to the drawings, 10 designates the body portion of the comb and which may be of any suitable shape and desired ornamentation. From one edge of the body 10 and preferably substantially at the middle portion thereof, two sets of teeth Hand 12 are arranged to extend beyond the body portion. These sets of teeth are curved as shown in the drawing, and lie substantially in one plane. An inner lockaccompanying drawings,
In inserting the comb into the hair, the body portion is grasped and the teeth inserted in a position preferably at right angles to the final position of the comb and either upwardly or downwardly. The comb is then given a quarter turn and the teeth further forced into the hair, which in passing through the entrance 15 is securely locked in the space 13 as well as between the respective portions of the sets of teeth 11 and 12. As aforesaid, the sharp outward curvature of the ends of the teeth further serve to prevent dislodgment of the comb.
I claim 1. A comb, comprising a body portion, and two sets of resilient teeth projecting from one edge thereof beyond the body portion, the inner teeth of the respective sets being oppositely curved to provide a single locking'space formed between said teeth, contracted contiguously to the body portion and substantially closed near the ends of the teeth to provide a contracted clamping entrance thereto, whereby the hair will be firmly massed and held in the locking space, the teeth forming the same being reinforced by the remaining adjacent teeth.
2. A comb, comprising a body portion, and two sets of resilient teeth projecting from one edge thereof beyond the body portion, the inner teeth of the respective sets being oppositely curved to provide a single locking space formed between said teeth,
follow substantially the curvature of said inner teeth.
Signed at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, this 26th day of March, A. D. 1915.- y
WILLIAMsBEOHT LD. I
contracted contiguously to the body portion and substantially closed near the ends of the teeth to provide a contracted clamping entrance thereto, whereby the hair will be 5 firmly massed and held in the locking space, the teeth forming the same being reinforced by the remaining teeth of each set which Copies of this patent may be obtained for five cents each, by addressing the Commissioner of Patents, Washington, 1).
