- zwr' faQ/Lama UNIT-ED STATES SCOTT H. TOLMAN, OF BOSTON, vIVIASSACI-IUSETTS` HAIR-CURLER.
Application led .Tune 7, 1920.
To all whom t may concern.'
Be it known that I, SCOTT H. TOLMAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Boston, 1n the county of Suffolk and State of .Massachusetts, have invented new and use- Iwound around it and secured in place.
The device is flat and is stamped from a relatively thin sheet of relatively flexible and resilient material. lVhile I may use sheet metal for the purpose, I prefer to form the hair wavers of celluloid or analogous material which is light and suiliciently flexible and resilient. As shown, it consists of a flat, relatively narrow bar or shank 10, of any suitable length, which hasv at one end (which I term the inner end) a substantially circular or elliptical open loop or hook l1, the end 12 of which is separated from the shoulder 13 at the end of the bar by a narrow but outwardly diverging throat 14. At its opposite end (which I term its outer end) the bar is formed with a similar open loop or hook 15; but, instead of removing the material from the inside of the hook, as in the case of the hook 11 first described, the hook 15 is formed by a narrow cut 16 so as to leave an inclosed clamping member 17 which extends from the end of the bar. The hooks 11 and 15 and the clamping member 17 all lie in the same plane, the ends of the hook being spaced from the adjacent corner of the bar or shank by narrow divergingthroat 17 and 18.
In using the device, a lock of hair, held more or less loosely, is thrust laterally in'to and through the throat 14 into the aperture formed by the hook 11, which is held close to the scalp, and the lock is wound in convolutions about the shank. The end of the lock is then thrust through the throat 18 until it extends longitudinally from the shank, and is clamped against the hook 15 by the clamping member 17, all as shown in Fig. 2. The hooks extend laterally from Specication of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 8, 1921 Serial No. 386,995.
the stra-ight side edges of the bar or shank at the ends thereof, and thus form stop members to prevent the convolutions of hair from sliding oil the bar longitudinally thereof.
A very decided advantage of the appliance as illustrated and described resides in the fact that, being flat and with all its members lying in the same plane, it will lie flat against the head of the wearer, where the lock of hair is connected to the scalp, and presents no abrupt or angular corners to press against the head. Furthermore, it is light and flexible, and ail'ords no discomfort to the wearer while resting the head on a pillow.
The loops are beyond the ends of the bar and are so formed that the hair passes from the scalp longitudinally of the bar through one loop, before it is coiled about the bar, and hence the device extends from the head in the general direction of the lock of hair,- which is a feature of decided advantage. While I have shown and described but one embodiment of the invention, persons skilled in the art will be aware that the invention is capable of a variety of embodiments.
Having thus explained the nature of my said invention and described a way of makingand using the same, although without attempting to set forth all of the forms in which it may be made or all of the modes of its use, what I claim is 1. A hair waving or curling appliance comprising a flat bar or shank about which a lock of hair may be coiled having at one end an open loop. or hook in the same plane therewith, and means at the other end for receiving the extremity of the lock of hair.
2. A hair waving or curling appliance comprising a flat bar or shank about which a lock of hair may be coiled having at each end a flat open loop or hook lying in the same plane therewith, said hooks extending laterally from the side edges of said bar or shank.
3. A hair waving or curling appliance comprising a bar or shank of resilient material about which a lockof hair may be coiled, said bar or shank'having extending from one end an open loop or hook of which the extremity is separated by a narrow throat from the end of said bar or shank, said bar and said hook lying in the same plane, and means at the other end of the bar or shank for clamping the free end of the lock of hair.
4. A hair waving or curling appliancel comprising a straight iat bar about which a lock of hair may be coiled, and flat hooks at the ends of said bar, each having its extremity separated by a narrow throat from said bar, said hooks and bar lying in the same plane.
5. A hair waving or curling appliance comprising a straight fiat bar about which a lock of hair may be coiled, iiat hooks at the ends of said bar, each having its extremity separated by a narrow throat from said bar, said hooks and bar lying in the same plane, and clamping means cooperating with one of said hooks.
G. A hair waving or curling appliance comprising a substantially straight elongated bar about which a lock of hair may be coiled a plurality of times, and havingat one end a hook forming a loop through which the hair may pass longitudinally of the bar before the hair is coiled about the bar, and means at thev other end of the bar :for clamping the free end of the lock of hair.
V'7. A hair waving or curling appliance comprising a Hat bar about which a lock of hairy may be coiled, a hook at each end of the bar having its opening coinciding with the longitudinal V-Inedian line of said bar Vthrough whichV the lock of hair may be passed., Y v
8. A hair waving or curling appliance comprising a fiat bar about which a lock of hair may be coiled, a hook at each end of the bar having itsopening'coinciding' with the longitudinal median line of said bar through which thelock of hair may be passed, and a clamping member for coacting with one of said hooks. Y
9. Ay hair waving or curling appliance comprising a flat bar or' shank having at each .end a flat open loop or hook lying in the kwith said hook in clamping a lock of hair passed through hook. y
1l. A hair waving or curling appliance comprising a flat bar or shank of resilient material having at each end,` and in the same plane therewith,lan open loop or hook, the extremity of which is separated by a narrow throat from the adjacent end of the shank, and having at one end a 4flat clamping member lying within the, opening formed by the adjacent hook and adapted to coperate with said hook in clamping ay lock of hair passed through said hook, said hooks being approximately circular exteriorly and extending laterally from the side edges of the bar or shank to form stops, substantially-,as described.
In testimony whereof I have aflixed my signature. f
