UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
HAIRIPIN.
Applcationleg February 6, 1923, Serial No. 617,371. Renewed July 25, 1925.
1o others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to a hair pin.
It is a prime object to provide a pin which will have such. a grip or engagement 15 with the hair as to greatly reduce the liability, so apparent in present forms, to fall out or become accidentally displaced.
It is further aimed to provide a hair pin with one of its legs or strands having one 20 or more waves substantially parallel and adapted to coact with one or more waves of the companion leg of the pin in order to grip the hair and afford even pressure from opposite sides.
Additional objects and advantages will become apparent from a consideration of the description following taken in connection with accompanying drawings illustrating an operative embodiment.
Figure 1 is a perspective View of one form of the pin;
Figure 2 is a perspective view of another form of pin, and
Figure 3 is a perspective View of a third form of in.
Referring first` to Figure 1, the pin is generally designated 10 and made for instance from ymetallic wire in a single piece or strand. As usual the pin is generally of U-shape having hair penetrating strands or legs 11 preferably parallel for a portion thereof at their penetrating ends as at 12. The pin is adapted to be gripped by the fingers in the handling thereof at the bight or loop 13. Each leg 11 intermediate the portions 12 and 13 is sinuous in that it is provided with one or more convolutions or waves 14. It is to be noted that the waves of one leg 11 are substantially parallel with the waves of the other leg 11. The side portions of the legs at the loop 13 are substantially parallel with each other but disposed at an angle to the line of' insertion and withdrawal of the pin so that the latter will better conform to curls for concealn'ient and will afford an effective finger grip.
In use, the pin being gripped atthe loogl 3 is passed into the hair as usual with the ends 12 foremost. Due to the waves 14, hair is received between them, being gripped or pressed upon equally from both sides, due to the parallelism of the waves or sinuous portions of the legs 11. As a result of' this construction, the pin will effectively remain in place in the hair so as not to readily fall therefrom or become displaced. As the pin is made of metallic wire, it will bc readily understood that it possesses the usual resiliency of a pin of this character. In other words the pin is tensioned to normally remain in the shape illustrated in the drawings and in engagement with the hair and to spring back to that normalposition and thus increase the grip on the hair.
The form illustrated in Figure 2 is similar to that of Figure 1 except the loop 13 is displaced by a loop 15 which is rounder and larger so as to give a larger gripping surface to the fingers and also greater resiliency to the pin for yielding movement of the legs as a whole from the bight.
lFhe form shown in Figure 3 may be similar to that of either form one or two except that one leg has a single wave 14 and from the same has an elongated straight portion 16 in lieu of a relatively short straight portion 12, whereby the straight portion 16 eX- tends along and opposite a plurality of waves 14 of the companion leg. By reason of this construction the hair is evenly7 gripped at the opposed waves but between said waves and the penetrating ends is un" evenly gripped by straight portion 16 and the waves opposite it to even more effectively secure the pin against accidental displacement from the hair. n
Various changes in the details may be rcsorted to provided they fall within the spirit and scope of the invention.
What is claimed is A hair pin consisting of a strand generally of U-shzipe,` the legs thereof having tion and'withdrawa'l of the pinfor concealwaves in spaced couctng relati0n5 and the wment in the hair and to constitute a finger o posite side portions of the legs at'tlie grip. 10 bight of the pin substantially constituting In testimony whereof I affix my signa- 5 one of the Waves und being dis osed subture. v, l
