Application fi1ed March 16, 1925. Serial No. 15,948.
and readily applied to the hair but which cannot become accidentally disengaged therefrom.
The invention also contemplates a hairpin provided with spring press-ed tines for engagement with the hair together with means for retracting the tines to permit the device to be disengaged from the hair.
lVith the preceding and other objects and advantages in mind, the invention consists in the novel combination of elements construction and arrangement of parts and operations, to be hereinafter more specifically referred to, claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein 2*- Figure 1 is a vertical sectional View of a hairpin constructed in accordance with my invention.
Figure 2 is a transverse sectional view taken on line 2-2 of Figure 1.
Referring to the drawings in detail wherein corresponding characters of reference denote corresponding parts throughout the several views, the numeral 5 designates a substantially U-shaped hairpin of tubular formation. The legs of the hairpin 5 terminate in divergent barbs which are also of hollow formation.
Slidably mounted in each of the barbs is a tine 11 provided with a head 12 at its inner end. A spring 13 is arranged in each of the barbs and engages the heads to normally project the tines through openings 15 in the inner ends of the barbs as shown in Figure 1. A substantially U-shaped operating element 20, which in the present instance is shown as being formed of wire, is arranged in U-shaped hairpin 5 and has its ends connected to eyes 21 formed on the tines while its intermediate parts passes through openings 22 in the crest of the hairpin and normally extends slightly above the same as shown. In connection with the operating element it will be stated that this element is of sufficient rigid ity as to move the tines inwardly against the tension of the coil springs upon pushing downwardly of the intermediate or externally arranged part of the operating memher.
In the use of the device the intermediate part of the operating element is moved downwardly towards the crest of the hairpin to retract the tines within the barb and against the tension of the springs therein. With the device in this position it can be arranged at the desired location in the wearers hair and upon release of the intermediate part of the operating elementthe springs will project the tines and at the same time push the operating element 11 wardly where it will be in a position for tile next operation.
While I have shown and described the preferred embodiment of the invention, I desire to have it understood that such changes may be made in the form, construction of elements and operations as will not depart from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claim.
hat isclaime-d is A hollow hairpin having divergent hollow barbs and provided with a pair of openings in its crest, spring pressed tines movable in the barbs and projected from the inner ends of the latter, and a. U-shaped operating element having its legs arranged in the legs of the hairpin and connected with the tines, the intermediate part of the operating element being normally disposed exteriorly of the hairpin and being adapted to be pushed downwardly to retract the tines, the outward movement of the tines from their respective barbs serving to raise the operating element to dispose its intermediate part above the crest of the hairpin where it can be readily operated.
In testimony whereof I affix my signa ture.
WILLIAM E. BENNETT.
