UNITED STA EDWIN M. GOLDSMITPI, or `PHILADELPHIA, "PENNSYLVANIA, AssIGNoR To 'Faian- BERGER-AARCN MANUFACTURING COMPANY, oP PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYL- VANIA, A CORPORATION 0F PENNSYLVANIA.
HAIR CURLER.
Application filed May 18, 1923. Serial No. 639,773.
T 0 all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWIN M. GoLDsMITH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Philadelphia, county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Hair Curlers, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
The object of my invention is to provide an improved hair curler which may be operated to receive, confine and release the hair with the greatest possible facility.
Preferred embodiments of my invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, in which- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of one embodiment of my invention, with the twoclamping members thereof retracted, the hair being coiled around one of the members.
Fig. 2 is a side view of the same, with the clamping members closed and the hair clamped between them.
Fig. 3 is a plan view of the same.
Fig. 4 `is a plan View of a modication.
Fig. 5 is a side View of the form shown in Fig. 4.
Each embodiment of my invention illus trated in the drawings comprises two thin flexible strips, one being substantially narrower than the other so that, when the curler is in closed position, the narrower strip lies wholly within the side edges of the wide strip. The wide strip is lettered a and the narrow strip b. In the form shown in Figs. 1, 2 and 3, theI two strips are hinged together at one end, by means of a loop c on the end of strip o engaging a lateral slot in strip a. Thereby the two strips are pivotally secured together on an'axis extending laterally of the curler. In the form shown in Figs. 4 and 5, the two strips are hinged together, by means of a rivet h, on an axis atright angles to the plane surfaces of the strips.
In each form of the invention, the wide strip has at its free or front end longitudinally extending projections d at opposite side edges, forming between them a shallow vnotch e of approximately the width of the -narrow strip. The free or front end of the l/Vhen the free ends of the two strips are moved toward each other in a direction at substantially a right angle to their plane surfaces, the flange of strip b passes between the projections d and its rounded end engages the base of the notch at the end of strip a, and because of the flexibility of the wide strip, rides over the end of strip a and snaps into position to restrain the two strips from separating. The projections 0l prevent any relative lateral movement of the two strips.
While in the forms shown in Figs. 4 and 5, the two strips are hinged together on an axis at right angles to the planes o-f the strips, the mode of engagement between the free ends of the strips is the same as inthe form shown in Figs. l, 2 and 3; the flexibility of the strips being such as to permit their free ends to be retracted as they are moved from the position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 4 into substantially parallel rela-tion.
The free end of the strip a is devo-id of any projection outside the plane of the strip, permitting the coil lof hair to freely slide onto and 0E the same.
.Release of the hair is effected by pushing the flange f in an upward and outward direction (Figs. l, 2 and 5), thereby separating the free ends of the two strips.
By making one strip (b) narrower than the other strip (0,) and positioning the former wholly within the side edges of the latter, the tendency of the confined hair to break over the edges is obviated.
Having now fully described my invention, what I claim and desire to protect by Let ters Patent is:
A hair curler comprising two longitudinally extending strips, means securing said strips together at one end but permitting them to be moved toward and from each other at the opposite end,l ythe free end of one strip being provided, with a flange,
While the free end of the other strip is provided with projections at opposite sides anda recess between the projections having a depth shallow relatively to its t5 Width and of a Width not less than that of the iange, so that the flange may be snapped over the base of the recess between the pro-J jeetions and be held by the projections ai; opposite sides of the recess from sidewiso displacement. 10
In' testimony of which invention, I have hereunto set my hand, at Philadelphia, Pa l on this 17th day of May, 1923.
EDWIN M. GOLDSMITH.
