Y WILLLIsnir G. sHELToN, oF sT. LoU1s,.M`IssoUnr Ham wAvrNe CLAMP f l.applies/pion.ined January 21, 1931. seran No. 510,292.'
f My invention relates to. the hair waving art and consists in a novel protector clamp for use in connection. with a heater and curling rod such, for example, asis disclosed in Patent No. 1,778,870 issued to me October 21,1930. y n
In using the types ofclamps now gene-rally known to the hair waving trade, a coil of hair wrapped around the curling rod is seated against the upper surface of the clamp and directly above the opening between the jaws. Upstanding elements are. provided at each end of the clamp forsupporting vthe rod and for counteracting the tendency of the hair to straighten and pull the rod to one side. These elements are usually located on the connecting link atene end of the jaws and the locking linkv at the other endr and frequently interfere with the operator in seg- 20 regating,`windin`g, and wrapping the hair and applying the heaters.
The main object of my present invention' is to provide a protector clamp in which an upstanding rod supporting. element is necessary at one end of the device only'.v y
Another object is to provide amorek 'efficient and` durable locking means for the clamp. Y f lA Another object is to improve the hairengaging surface of the clamping jaws tomore securely grip a strand of hair. I attain these objects and others asindicated below in thejstructure illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which--` vFigure 1'is a vertical transverse `section showing my. improved clamp, assembled with a coil of*- hair wrappedon a curling rod, and a heater. i l
Figure 2. is a viewof lone end of the clamp showingx'the 'ratchet vand pawl engagement with the curling rod.
Figure :3 `is :a view ofthe other end ofthe y clamp. l
Figure 4 is a top view -rof the clamp. Figure `5 is k:a vertical longitudinal section taken on line .f5-.45 of Figure 4.
'The clamp includes elongated Ajaw members 1 and-2 connected atw fone .end by a link 9 which is pivotalily secured to each jaw .by
lever 17 having a camv l8xat one end which yciency ofthe clamp.. Y
preferably, wider than jaw 2. J aw 2 includes a channel metal strip' and a pad 6 of yielding material, preferably soft rubber. A felt pad 7, secured to the rbottom of each jaw, serves to protectthe scalp of the customer from heat and asa cushion for the weight of the rod and heater. The hair engaging faces .8 and 9 of the elongated jaws are concave and convex, respectively, and are corrugated longitudinally to provide for a more secure grip.- ping of the hair.
An upstanding rod supporting element 10 and a pawl l1 for engagement with ratchet 14; are mounted on link 3` by means of a rivet 13 which extends through jaw 1.
Atthe opposite end of the clamp, I provide locking means comprising al link 15, pivotally secured to jaw 2 by means of a rivet 16, and a is arranged to fit into an arcuate depression.' 19 cut in the corner of jaw 1. The cam sur,-v face-Of the' locking lever bears directly against a: metal insert 20 in jaw 1 which prevents the gradual wearing awayof theedge vof the depression. 19 and the'consequent decreased effirespectively, and U-shaped intermediate f portion having legs 33 and 34- of different depths. -In thelockcd position of the clamp,
whichfis less deep than the lower leg, rests on top of the jaw. This'construction yprevents theflocking link from sticking in case the l parts becomebent and permitseasy swingingy Vof the link intoand outofthe groove 35` so thatthe locking ,of theA clamp may be controlledsolely by lcam lever 17.
'l The heater shown in Figurell includes an varcuate body portion hair gripping arms the lower leg 33fof the link 15 fits intoa groove y .35 in the endlof jaw 2, and theupper leg 34,
end to end ther-edf and .having an arcuate top Q2 for seating a ycoilo'f'hair wrapped around the curling rod 23.- VRidge 21 serves toele-v vate the .coiled .strand Aabove the upper sur` face of the clamping jaws 1 and 2 to permit the heater jaws to ireely pass between the coil and the clamp and, during` the curling operation, the ridge is gripped between the heater jaws to assist in maintaining the assemb'ly in alignment.
The ridge 21 has the further function that if the clamping jaws become distorted sufficiently to cause link 15 to pass over the top oi jaw 1, the engagement of the lower and longer leg of link 15 with the end of the ridge will indicate to the operator that the clamp is not properly locked. In the normal locked position, the upper leg oit link 15 engages the end of the ridge, as shown in Figure 5.
In the permanent waving operation, a strand of hair S, previously segregated, -is clamped between the jaws of the protector clamp and then wound upon the curling rod in the usual manner. When the coil is wound down to the clamp, the portion of rod 23 outside of the ratchet wheel 14 is seated on the arcuate top edge of upstanding support 10 and ratchet 14 is engaged by pawl 11. Further turning ot the rod by handle 24 will tighten the coil and pawl 11 will prevent the strand from unwinding.
I have found that by seating the coiled strand on one side of the opening between the jaws instead of directly over the opening, as is the usual case with clamps now in use, the hair pulls the rod directly downward and there is practically no tendencyto pull the curling rod to one side and the coil will be held securely in alignment with the jaws of the clamp without the use of any supporting elementon the free end thereof.
The form of mv invention described is particularly adapted for use in croquinole waving. but it will be understood that the principles of the invention maybe equally advantageously embodied ,in a clamp for use in cork screw waving` as disclosed in my copending application, Serial No. 481.504. filed September 12. 1930. The structure may also be modified as to various other details without departing from the spirit of the invention and T. contemplate the esclusive use of all such variations as come within the scope of mv claims. ""V''l I claiml.
