Patented Feb. 3, 1931 UNITED STATES W'D'JLIAM G. SHELTON, OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI HAIR 'WAVEB Application Med September 27, 1928. Serial No. 808,638.
My invention relates to hair curling or waving equipment and consists in a novel device for holding a strand of hair while heat is applied to the same during the waving operation.
One of the objects of my invention 1s to provide a simple, light, efiicientmember for gripping the strand of hair ad]acent to the scalp of the user and mounting the curllng and heating elements which will protect the user from contact with the heater or fr om contact with steam or hot water resulting from the liquid applied tothe hair during the waving operation.
Another object of my invention is to provide, in a device of the class described, structure for readily wrapping the hair about a curling rod, and holding the strand tightly in wrapped position and facilitating the ap- :o plication of a moistened pad to the wound strand of hair.
Another object of my invention is to provide simple and eective means for quickly engaging and disengaging the hair gripping elements and the hair and for quickly engaging and disengaging the heater element and the hair gripping elements.
In the accompanying drawings which illustrate a selected embodiment of my invention- Figure 1 is an end elevation of the assembled structure.
Figure 2 is a side elevation of the same.
Figures 3 and 4 are vertical sections on lines 3--3 and 4 4 of Figures 2 and 1, re-
spectively. Figure 3 also shows a strand of hair and treating pad.
Figure 6 is a detail view of one of the curling rod mounting elements.
The scalp of the user is indicated at S and T is a strand of hair, a number of which will i3 be manually formed and have individual heaters applied thereto. The strand T will be gripped adjacent to the scalp by a pair of bars 1 and 2 hinged to each other at one end, as indicated at 3, and forming the base of the device. These bars are preferably formed of Bakelite, or other suitable insulating material, and preferabl will be grooved along their bottoms, as in Iicated at 4, to lighten the same and to provide air passages adjacent to the scalp. I show the meeting faces of bars 1 and 2 provided with a recess 5 and a projection 6, respectively. Preferably, the projection 6 will be of a separate element of sponge rubber, or the like, secured in a recess in bar 2 and will be provided with transverse ,o grooves 7 throughout a portion or all of its length to hold the strand of hair in fairly even distribution, thereby keeping the strand fiat. Catch element-s 8 and 9 are provided on the unhinged ends of bars 1 and 2, the same g5 forming an eccentric device for adjustably clamping the bars together. Y
The heater element includes a semi-circular shell 20 formed of insulating material and adapted to it over rod 11 and la strand of hair wound thereon and this shell 20, with base bars 1 and 2, forms a complete enclo- 95 sure for the hair and rod. Suitable electric resistance elements are mounted in shell 20 and a body 21. attached thereto and' are connected by wires 22 with a source of electrical supply. These elements and their as- 1M sembly with the shell, in themselves, form no part of my invention. A member for attaching the shell to the base is indicated at 23 and (preferably consists of a flat strip having en s 24 adapted to be seated in suitable recesses 25 formed in the outer faces of ends 10. Preferably, at least one of the ends of member 23 will be of spring material so as to permit quick attachment and detachment of the heater device.
To apply the device to a strand of hair, the base will be applied to the inner end of the strand, the bars 1 and 2 being clamped i together by the elements 8 and 9; the curling rod 11 will be applied to the outer end of the strand and the rod turned, thereby winding the rod down to the base, the stud 13 and pin 16 beine received in the recesses provided therefor 1n ends 10 and the noncircular end of pin 16 and its frictional en gagement with rod 11 preventing unwinding of the rod and strand. Near the end of this Winding operation, a moistened pad 26 will be applied to the strand and Wound with the same during the last convolution or so. This pad is an article of which there are a number of di'erent types in use, a simle form comprising a sheet of flannel or blotting paper, or both, combined with a sheet of foil. However, the form of this pad, or its use at all, is immaterial to my present invention. By means of stud 13, the Winding of the strand on the rod may be tightened to any desired extent and it is unnecessary to apply any holding means. After the winding of the strand is completed, the heating device is quickly applied by snapping the ends 24 of member 23 into the recesses 25 provided therefor on the base. In the event of illness of the customer, or other emergency, the heaters may be almost instantaneously separated from the remainder of the apparatus by unsnapping the yielding end or ends 24 from the base ends It is obviousthat many of the details of my invention may be varied without departing from the splrit thereof, and I. contemplate the exclusive use of all modlcatlons thereof which come within the scope of my claims.
I claim:
1. In a device for a hair Waver, a pair of arms of insulating material hngedto each other at one end and adapted to grip a strand of hair between them and having faces for resting on the scalp of a user and provided with 'recesses forming air passages adjacent to the scalp when the Waver is in use, and means at their other end for holding them together.
2. In a device for a hair Waver, a pair of arms of insulating material hinged ,to each other at one end and adapted to grip a strand of hair between them, and having recesses in their scal engaging faces extending from end to en to permit the passage of air between the same and the scalp, and means at their other end for holding them together.
3. In a device for a hair Waver, members for gripping a strand of hair between them, upstanding elements on the ends of said members, a rod about which said strand may be Wrapped, the end portions of said rod being recessed, a stud secured in one of said recessed ends and journalled in one of said elements and projecting therefrom and having a head by which said stud and rod may be rotated, and a split pin seated in the other of said recessed ends and frictionally engaging the sides of its recess and non-rotatively.
seated in the otherof said elements.
4. In a device for a hair Waver, a base including means for gripping a strand of hair near the scalp of the user, upstanding end elements on said base, one of said elements having a slot extending inwardly from its outer edge, a rod positioned between 'said ends and having a recess in the .end ortion adjacent to said slotted element, an a pin split lengthwise throughout a portion of its length with its split portion expanded and inserted in said recess and With its unsplit portion being non-circular in 'shape and seated in said slot and engaging the sides thereof.
5. In a device for a hair Waver, members for gripping a strand of hair between them and provided with upstanding ends, a rod seated in said members and about which rod said strand may be Wrapped, a heater device cooperating with said members to enclose said vrod and a strand of hair thereon between said ends, and a quickly detachable spring element on at least one of said ends and said device for holding the same in assembled relation.
6. In a device for a hair Waver, members for gripping a strand of hair between them and provided with upstanding ends having outwardly facing recesses, a rod seated in said members and about which rod saidstrand may be wrapped, a heater device cooperating With said members to enclose said rod and a strand of hair thereon between said ends, and catch elements on the ends of said device for entering said recesses, at least one of said catch elements being of spring material to provide quick and easy assembly and disassembly of sa1d device and members.
In testimony whereof I hereunto affix my signature this 21st day of September, 1928.
