HAIR TIE.
Application led July 21,
To all whom it may concern.'
Be it known that we, EVELYN D. SCHERER and WARREN C. SGHERER, both citizens of the United States, residing, respectively, at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, and Cleveland, in the county of Cuyahoga, in the State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hair Ties, of which the following is a specification.
, Our invention relates to a hair-tie or clasp, and its object is to provide a device of this kind, which is simple in construction, inexpensive, and which will permit the hanging portion of a womans hair to be brought together'and conveniently tied OrclaSped, and which further can be shaped to the head and retained in tied or clasped condition and be vconcealed when dressing the hair in any desired style.
The invention consists in the formation and novel construction of the hair-tie shown in the drawings in which,-
Fig. 1 illustratesthe manner in .which the device is to be employed.
Fig. 2 is an elevation of the same showin the two connected side membersseparate to almost their fullest extent. Y
Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the device partly closed, the vretainer projections on each of the connected side members having been passed by the other of said side members.
Fig. 4 is an edge view of the same, with the looped ends of the two side members bent or forced rearwardly to show the manner in which these parts may be curved to conform to the head of the wearer.
Fig. 5 is a view similar to Figs. 1 and 2, showing the device in completely' closed condition.
The device is preferably formed of silk or cotton-covered wire, the silk or cotton being of any desired shade so that a hair-tie may be selected that matches or approximately matches the shade of the hair with which it is to be used. This wire is curved midway between its ends, as at 6, to form two opposite inwardly- curved side members 7, 8, each side member being looped upon itself, as at 9, 10, respectively, by recurving or rebending the wire a distance from its opposite ends, as at 11, the loops 9, 10 being comparatively long and narrow and the inner stretches or rebent portions thereof, desig-- 1923. Serial No. 652,885.
nated 12, which are formed by the end portions of the wire forming the device, have their extremities twisted around or otherwise secured to the curved side members 7 and 8, asat 13. ,j
It is to be noted that the upper portions of the inwardly- curved side members 7, 8, cross each other and that the rebent portion 12, or inner bounding portion as it may be termed, of one loop passes underneath the two side portions of the other loop, while the rebent or inner bounding portion of said other loop passes above the two side yportions of the first-mentioned loop. In'y this manner the outer portion or stretch of'wire pf each loop is passed through the other oop. f y j n The inner or rebent lportion 12 of each loop hasan abrupt.inwardly-directed portion 14 vformed thereon, which may be termed locking or 4retaining projections; therefore, each of said inner or. rebent portions of the loops maybe said to be irregularly formed, by which term we intend to describe a stretch of wire bent or otherwise fashioned to break the direct course or continuity of the same, in contra-distinction to .the `unbent outer portions of the loops. The wire fromwhich the device is constructed is yielding, but resilient, so that the parts retain the shape to which they arey formed, unless pressure is exerted against any portion, and when such pressure `is exerted te cause any portion of the device to move with respect to ranother or others, or to cause it to conform to the shapeof the head bydirecting the loop portions 9, 10,y inwardly, the parts tend to recover their normal position. This is ralso, true of the side members 7 and 8which are connected at what may be termed the kbight 6. The curved portion or bight 6 tends to keep said side members separated. .f Due to the friction of the wire at the loops,'especially ysince there is normally a slight curvature of the device on its inner side, yseparation of the side members cannot readily take place except under force, and this is especially true y after one of the side members passes thev inmember moves toward the retainer projection 14 of the loop on the other side mem ber, at which point slightly greater pressure is 'required to move the side member over said retainer projection; this action being best attained by grasping the free ends of the loops 9 and l0, pulling outwardly or away from each other. Under this action the loop 15, which may be referred to as a hair-clasping loop, becomes reduced in size, and after each side member passesv over the retainer projection of the loop on the other side member, the parts, due to the inward curvature of the device and due to the fact that each side member extends through the loop of the other side member, are frictionalrly retained in any position in which they may be placed.
`When the free ends of the loops are drawn outwardly to their greatest extent, as shown in Fig. 5, the hair-clasping loop l5 through which the loose hair of thel wearer is passed, is reduced to its smallest dimension, and this is sufficient to grasp the loose hair, even though the hair isY thin at the point to be grasped. After the hair is passed through. the loop l5 and grasped by drawing upon the outer'ends of the loops 9, lO, or in. other words, by drawing the free ends of the side members outwardly, the loop portions of said side members are forced toward the head and fastened in placev by means olf hair pins. rihe device will therefore be retainedin closed position and conform as near as possible to the shape of the head. The iiowing portion of the hair is therefore tied close to the head and it may then be dressed in any desired form. Under all conditions, however, the dressing of the hair completely hides the hair tie.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim is l. A hair tie formed of wire curved upon itself between its ends to provide two side members, `said side members having loops at their free ends and that portion ofv each side member extending through the loop of the other side member forming the outer` side of its loop. s
2. A hair tie formed of wire bent between its ends to form two connected side members, said members being crossed and 4having loops at their point of crossing, the
wire forming the outer side of the loop on one side member passing through the loop formed on the other member.
3. A hair tie formed of resilient wire concaved on its inner side and curved uponV itself midlength to form two curved side members arrangedto cross each other, said side members being recurved to form elon` gated loops, the outer portion of each side member passing through the loop formed on the other side member.
4. A hair tie formed of wire curved upon itself midlength to form two side members, said side members being curved and rebent upon themselves to form elongatedV loops, the ends of the wires being fastened to Said side members between their ends, each ofV said loops having a retainer projection over which the other side member is adapted to pass.
5. A hair tie formed of wire curved mid` length upon itself to forni two side members, said' side members being curved and crossed and having their ends recurved to formelongated loops with irregular inner bounding portions, the ends of the wire forming said loop being connected to said side members between their ends.
6. A hair rtie formed of wire curved upon itself midlength to providey two side members, said side members being curved inwardly to cross each other and the ends; of the wires being rebent to, form elongated loops through each of which the op fosite side memberV passes, the inner stretch of) wire forming each loop having an abrupt inwardly-bent portion serving as a retainer projection over which the side member having the other loop thereon passes.
7. A hair tie formed of wire curved uponv itself midlength to form two side members, said side members being curved inwardly to. cross each other and having the ends of the wires recurved to form elongated loops and the extremities thereof connected Vto said side members between their ends, each side member extending through the loop of the opposite side member andbeing in frictional Contact with the two stretches of wires forming said last-,mentioned loop'. In testimony whereof, we affix our signatures.
