M. L. HENRY.
HAIR CURLER.
APPLICATION FILED MAY 24. 1921.
1,402,356, Patented Jan. 3, 1922,
HAIR CURLER.
Application filed. May as,
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, MARY L. HENRY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Jacksonville. in the county of Morgan and State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Hair Curlers, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to toilet devices, particularly to hair curlers, and has for its object the provision of an article designed primarily for use in curling short or bobbed hair in a very satisfactory and expeditious manner.
An important and more specific object is the provision of a hair curling device adapted to be clamped upon the ends of the hair and to be subsequently turned whereby to wrap the hair upon the device, the device being furthermore provided with a pivoted clamping arm adapted to be swung into engagement with the hair wrapped about the remainder of the device and to be clamped in engagement therewith whereby to prevent untwisting of the hair. it being of course designed that a plurality of the devices be used and that they be left on the hair for a suitable length of time, which would befrom fifteen minutes to thirty minutes according to the textureof the hair.
An additional object is the provision of a device of this character which will be simple and inexpensive to manufacture, easy to use, harmless to the hair, durable'in service. and a general improvement in the art.
With the above and other objects and ad vantages in view, the invention consists in the details of construction to be hereinafter more fully described and claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawings in Which- Figure 1 is a perspective view showing my device in open position ready for use,
Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the device initially clamped upon a strand of hair, and
Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view showing the pivoted arm moved into clamping position.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, I have shown my device as comprising a clamping device formed from a single strip of spring metal 10 bent upon itself intermediate its ends, as shown at 11, to define a long arm 12 and a short arm 13 having a narrow point 14 terminating in a lip 15. Slidably engaged upon this strip adjacent the bend 11 is a slidable sleeve 16formed as Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 3,
1921. Serial No. 4.-72,123.
a single strip of metal bent about the clamp and formed with a depression 17. Slidable upon the other end of the long arm 12 is a similar sleeve 18 formed with a depression 19 of a size and shape to receive th'e'lip 15. Pivoted upon the end of the long arm 12, as shown at 20, is a clamping arm 21 like wise formed of resilient metal and having a reduced end 22 terminating in a lip 23..
In the use of the device, assuming that it is in open position, as shown in Figure 1, the strand of hair to be curled is slipped between the arms 12 and 13 whereupon the sleeve 18 is slid along the arm 12 so as to extend over the end 14 of the arm 13 with the depression 19 receiving the lip 15. The user then grasps the device between the thumb and first two fingers of one or both hands and turns the device over and over so as to wrap the strand of hair upon it, this operation being continued until the device is disposed near the scalp whereupon the user swings the arm 21 over onto the wrapped hair and then slides the sleeve 16 into engagement over the end 22 of the arm 21 with the lip 23 snapping into the depression 17. In this way hair will be firmly clamped and will be held tightly wrapped so that the proper curling action will be accomplished in a short period of time.
From the foregoing description and a study of the drawings it will be apparent that I have thus provided a hair curling device which will be highly efiicient in curling short or bobbed hair without the employment of heat, the device being consequently harmless in use while efficiently performing all the functions for which it is intended.
While I have shown and described the preferred embodiment of my invention, it is of course to be understood that I reserve the right to make such changes in the form, construction and arrangement of parts as will not depart from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claims.
Having thus described my invention, I claim:
1. A device of the character described comprising a clamping member formed as a pair of resilient arms of unequal length, a sleeve sliclable upon one arm and engageable with the other whereby to hold both arms in a clamping engagement upon a strand of hair, a second sleeve slidable upon said clamping member at the end opposite the first named sleeve, and a resilient arm pivoted upon the free end of the long arm and having its free end adapted to be en gaged beneath said second named sleeve.
2. A device of the character described comprising a clamping member formed of a single strip of resilient metal bent upon itself intermediate its ends to define a long arm and a short arm, a sleeve slidable upon the free end portion of the long arm and engageable over the free end of the short arm, a resilient clamping arm pivoted upon the free end of the long arm and movable to lie in registration therewith, and a second sleeve slidable upon both of said first named arms at the end opposite the first named sleeve and movable to engage over the free end of said last named arm.
3. A device of the character described 4 comprising a clampin member formed of a single strip of resihent metal bent upon itself intermediate its ends to define a long arm and a short arm, a sleeve slidable upon. the free end portion of the long arm and engageable over the free end of the short arm, a resilient clamping arm pivoted upon the free end of the long arm and movable MARY L. HENRY,
