HAIR wavna.
.VVavers, of which the following is a 'Sp'Olfh cation.
The invention relates to a hair waver or curlingrod for use in the art of permanent hair waving and designed for receiving a Strand of hair which is coiled spirally on such wav'ers prior to encasing the hair in a heating device.
In the art of permanent hair waving, as at present practiced, it is usual to provide a thin rod, circular in cross-section, and preferably tapered towards the end adapted to be disposed adjacent the persons head so as to accommodate the thicker portions of the strand of hair adjacent the head and in this way provide for uniformity or atleast substantial uniformity in the length of the formedwave in the finished hair. One difficulty in the practical operation of hair waving has been the necessity of tying the ends of the strand of hair to the waver and several attempts have been made to eliminate the necessity of such tying operations. 7 The suggested substitutes for the usual tying operation usually provides for some form of clamp, but these clamps are expensive; are difficult to operate in the presence of a large mass of loose hair; are cumbersome; takeup room adjacent the head and thus act to reduce the number of curlers or wave-rs which can be positioned at one time on the persons head. i
' Accordingly, the primary object, of. the invention is to provide a hair waver of the type outlined, which will retain the advantages inherent in the approved tapered form of waver with its necessary circular crosssection, and which, at the same time, can be duicklysecured to the hair strand with the hair strand curled thereon and without necessity of using either separate tying means nor the bulky clamps now known in the alt;
In general the invention features simplicity in construction in the elimination of projecting parts, which become entangled in the adjacent hair and the prorising 6f a farm of waver which tan be Application filed m '20, 1923. Serial No. "652,738.
similar article Another object of the invention is to provide a form of hair waver which 'will not only facilitate a positive securing of the hair strand thereto, but which will also facilitate the ready removal of the strand from the waver, following the waving operation.
In the practicing of permanent hair waving it has always been difficult to wave the hair up close to the persons scalp due to "the necessity of providing a sufficient length of hair to tie the same to the waver before the strand is wrapped about the same. Accordingly, the present disclosure features a construction at one end of the waver which will permit the end to be brought close to the scalp, and in this way it is possible to start the wave in the hair closer to the head than has been heretofore possible.
Still another object of the invention is to provide 'a hair waver all parts of which are readily accessible for cleaning and incidental to the 'desideratum to provide for a sanitary article the disclosure features a construction which is free of pockets or close angles which might collect dirt and is free of sharp edges which might injure the operator in manipulating the waver.
Various other objects and advantages of the invention will vbe in part obvious from an inspection of the accompanying drawthrough the 'waver shown in Figure 1 and taken on the line 22 of Fig. 1 looking in the direction indicated by the arrows; and Figure 3 is an enlarged view of the waver shown in opened position.
In the following description and in the claims, parts will be identified by specific ,7 names for convenience of expression but they are intended to be as generic in their application to similar parts as the art will permit.
In the drawings there is shown a waver 10 which, when the partsthereofare assembled in operative position, resembles conventional forms of such wavers in that it is a long rod circular in cross-section, as shown in Figure 2, and gradually tapers from an outer end 11 towards its inner end 12. It is understood that the reduced end 12 is designed to be positioned adjacent the head of the person, whose hair is to be waved and a strand of hair A is wrapped spirally on thewaver and otherwise treated following conventional practices.
The distinctive feature of the present disclosure is that the waver is split along its axis to form two similar sections 13 and 14 with inner oppositely disposed faces 15 and 16 substantially in contact when in operative position. The face 16 is provided adjacent the outer end 11 of the waver with a roughened surface 17, herein shown to be formed of transversely disposed corruga tions formed of spaced apart depressions or grooves 18.
The two sections 13 and 14 are pivotally connected atthe small end 12 by means of a pivot pin 19. It is a feature of this dis closure that the pivot pin is positioned as close to the end as is physically possible to position this pin and still maintain the ends connected. It is also suggested that the pin be slightly longer than the aperture in which it is positioned, so that the pin will provide a loose pivotal connection thus permitting a slight separation of the faces 15 and 16 at the pivoted end of the waver. This construction permits the ready insertion of the flat portion B of the strand of hair between the two sections of the waver and close to the end of the same and to the persons head as shown in Figure 1.
At the outer end 11 of the waver the faces 15 and 16 are bevelled outwardly to provide a V-shaped forked opening 20 constituting a guide for facilitating the insertion of the free end C of the strand into position betweenthe surfaces 15 and 16 and where it is held frictionally by theroughened por tion of the latter.
In operation it will be understood that a portion of the hair to be waved is gathered into a strand and with the waver in the opened position shown in Figure 3 the por tion B of the strand adjacent the head is passed between thesections of the waver and the end of the waver is positioned as close as is possible to the head of the person. The sections of legs of the waver are then closed into parallel relation andthe strand V coiled spirally on the assembled waver, as is I usual inpracticing the art of waving hair.
The free end C of the strand isthen drawn.
aeacoo through the guiding slot at the outer end of the waver and is pulled into position to be clamped between the two parts of the waver. It is understood that the turns of the strand engaging the outer surface of the waver acts to hold the sections in position and acts therethrough to hold the free end C of the strand clamped between the jaws formed by the sections. The hair wavingoperation is completed following conven tional practice after which the curled strand is removed from the waver. This is quickly effected simply by withdrawing the end 0 from its clamped position thus loosening the hair curl. The waver may then be grasped at its pivoted end and withdrawn axially from the formed and loosened curlv As there are no projecting parts from the waver this removal can be effected without causing the same to become entangled with other wavers or with any loose hair present.
By means of a device of the type disclosed it is possible to form perfect marcel waves which will be free from kinks and which will extend in a natural undulation practically up to the scalp. As tying operations have been eliminated the process can be practiced quickly and any danger of cutting the operators fingers has been eliminated. In one practical form of the invention the rod is made of aluminum which has the advantage of lightness in weight and its non-resiliency tends to prevent deformation of the formed wave.
While I have shown and described, and have pointed out in the annexed claims, certain novel features of my invention, it will be understood that various omissions, substitutions and changes in the form and details of the device illustrated and in its operation may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Having thus described my invention, I claim:
1. A. hair waver for use in the art of. permanent hair waving, said waver being relatively long, tapering towards one end and circular in cross-section, said waver being divided on a plane containing the longitudinal. aXis of the waver to form the waver of two similar sections with flat contacting sides and rounded outer sides,v and means pivotallv connecting the sections adjacent the smaller end of the waver.
