Application filed May 29,
To all whomz'tmay concern: Be it known that I, LILLIAN M. LEA, a c1t1- zen of the United States, and a resident of Tottenville, borough of Richmond, in the 5 county of Richmond and State of New York,
bined receptacle and applicator fora shampoo liquid. I As an object the invention contemplates a simple and eflective device for holdingJa 5 supply of shampoo fluid and for affording means to facilitate the appllcation and distribution of the fluid on and over the head to expedite the shampooing operation.
As a further object the invention contemplates a device which affords a convenient means for mixing the constituent elements of the shampooing agent prior to. its appllcation to the head. i p
As a still further object the invention aims to provide as aninexpensive article of manufacture ashampoo cup which is highly eflicient in its purposeand strong and durable in its construction.
WVith' the above recited and. other objects in'view, the invention resides in the novel construction set forth in the following specification, particularly pointed out in the appended claims and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, it being'understood that '35 the right is reserved to embodiments other than those actually illustratedherein to'the full extent indicated by the" general meaning of the terms in which the claims are expressed. T
In the drawings. 7 Figure 1 is a view illustrating a shampoo cup constructed in accordance with the in .vention and the manner in which the same isused. I
Fig. 2. is a sectional view through the cup. Fig.7 3 is a plan view thereof.
Referring to the drawings by characters of reference, the cup comprises a body '10 which is provided with a closed bottom 11 and an open upper end 12 which is defined by an inwardlyand downwardly directed or curved flange 13., The sidewall is bent or 1322. Serial No. 564,494.
oflf'set inwardly as at 14: between the bottom and lower compartments 15 and 16 which are connected by a restricted passage or throat 17 The lower portion of the body is of an external configuration and size to conveniently fit'within the palm of the hand when in use.
In use and operation, the constituent elements constituting the shampoo fluid 18 is placed in the cup. By using one of the hands asa cover and grasping the lower'portion of the same in the other hand, the cup is employed as a mixer for shaking and thoroughly mixing the constituent elements of the shampoo agent. When the shampooing agent is properly mixed the lower portion of the cup is used as a handle for manipulating the same and the upper open end 12 is brought into contact with the scalp and moved over the same to effect the discharge, application and distribution of the contents over the head. The inwardly and downwardly directed or curved flange 13 provides a depression or concave extremity which closely conforms to the various contours of'the scalp to prevent overfeeding of the contents and resultant waste or loss' thereof. lVhen not in use the cup may be thoroughly cleansed and sterilized until again needed. The cup may be constructed from glass, porcelain, metal or any other suitable material and is so formed as to eliminate sharp edges or corners which might tend to cut or injure the hair. In initially bringing the cup intoapplied position with the scalp, the same is preferably turned 1 sideways with the open upper end 12 against the side of the head to prevent the spilling and waste. p
I claim:
