Ham-warm.

To all whom it ma concern:

Be it known that ISRAEL HOFFMAN,'Clt1- zen of the United States, and resident of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Hair-Waver, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to toilet articles, and particularly to that class of articles known as hair-wavers, and has, for its object to produce such an article ina simple and economical manner and form, and at the same time so that it will be eflicient in use.

A further object of my invention is to produce a hair-waver that may be applied 'to the hair with or without heating, and that will operatively remain in the hair. until purposely removed, and that will produce the form of waves commonly known cel waves.

These and other objects of my invention are set forth in the following specification, and shown in the accompanying drawin s, which form a material part of this disc 0- sure, and in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved hair-waver;

Fig. 2 is an enlarged end elevational view thereof showing the same applied to the hair; and

Fig. 3 is a fragmental detail view, partly in section, showing the means employed for securing the clamp.

My improved waver consists oftwo principal parts or members, ,a female member 10, and a male member 11.

The female member 10 may be made'from any desirable material and is preferably constructed of a sheet metal plate'formed into a plurality of longitudinally extending as Marcorrugations or undulations comprising semi-circular lower and

upper portions

12 and 21 and vertical side walls 13. The male member 11 is similarly formed, having semicircular lower portions 14 projecting into the semi-circular portions 12 of the female member, and a semi-circular upper portion 4 which receives the semi-circular portion 21 of the female member, the convolutions of the male member being completed by the vertical side walls 3. I I

The

members

10, 11, arranged as above described, are pivotally attached to each other v at one end of the waver. ears- 15, 15-611 the member 11, being'secured to similar ears 16, 16, formed on the member 10, of eyelets 17.

The member 11 is also provided with another car 22 for convenience in use when opening the waver.

Attached to the free end of the member 10 by the

eyelets

19, 19, is a swinging wire bail or clamp 18, which may be swung over.

the top of the member 11 when the latter is in 1ts closed position in the member 10, to compress and hold these parts together, as shown 1111 Fig. 2, or which-may be turned nto the position shown in Fi .1 when it is desired to open the waver. be different corrugations are of such size as to cause the vertical side walls to be spaced apart when the devlce is in operative'position, while thecatch 18 acts to hold the male member in position with the semi-circular portions of with the vertical side walls.

Specification of Letters Patent. Patent d M 31 1921 Application filed March 5, 1918. Serial No. 220,620.

by means '7 5 the corrugations spaced substantially evenly In operation, the waver, being in its opened 7 position, may be introduced into the hair 20, or a deslred-amount of the latter ma be placed between the

members

10, 11,

to hold the parts in their closed'positions. The clamp, 18, when adjusted, holds the member 11 against swinging movement away from the member 10 when the vertical and semi-circular portions of the corrugations ofthe respective members are evenly spaced apart. The hair may be left in the waver as long as necessary or desirable. By

the employment of a number of these wavers, as much'hair as desired may be simultaneously waved.

Having described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters' Patent is A hair waving device composed of' two longitudinally channeled members, of sheet metal, each having outer walls and straight line' channeled bases, forming a plurality of transverse convolutions, the convolutions of one member being smaller than those of the other member that said members may interfit upon an interposed layer of hair to wave the latter, adjacent ends of said members being cutaway to leave .lugs ex?- tended from their outer walls, lugs on the smaller member being ofiset to meet thelugs' .ing such that their opposed channels are longitudinally spaced apart throughout when said members are closed upon the inaeopee terposed layer of hair, and en aging means for the free ends of said mem ers. 1 MB Si ed at New York city, in the county. of ew York and State of New York, this dth day of March, A.
