HAIR WAVER Filed July 50, 1932 Patented Aug. 8, 1933 UNITED STATES PATENT GFFECE 13 Claims.
This invention relates to improvements in hair wavers of the class consisting of a central bar and fingers projecting therefrom in opposite directions and around and upon which a strand of hair is wound or entwined in such a manner that after the hair has remained in place thereon a sufficient length of time, it becomes dry and retains the waves formed therein bythe said device, provision being made for fas- 19 tening the strand of hair upon the waver after it has been properly adjusted or placed in position.
This invention belongs to the same class that is disclosed in my previous Patent No. 1,724,249,
dated August 13, 1929, and that disclosed in my previous application for patent, Serial No.
My present improvement consists in forming one of the end fingers somewhat longer than the adjacent finger on the same side of the bar or body member and forming a rounded oifset in the direction of the adjacent finger, the object being to facilitate the application of the marceller to a strand of hair close to the scalp and to prevent the strand of hair from slipping off the finger. In my previous application Serial No. 499,434, the end finger or part is formed into a hook for this purpose, but the hook is found objectionable as there is so much difiiculty in getting the hair into the hook whereby there is a tendency to break the individual hairs of the strand. This objection and others incident to the use of the hook are overcome by my present improvement which will now be described in detail, reference being made to the accompanying drawing in which is illustrated an embodiment thereof.
In this drawing,
Fig. 1 is an elevation of the device showing a strand of hair, provision also being made for fastening the strand in position;
Fig. 2 is a similar view with the device shown in detail or without the strand of hair;
Fig. 3 is a section taken on the line 3-3, Fig. 2;
Fig. 4 is a similar section showing a slightly modified form of construction;
Fig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 4, but showing another modification.
The same reference characters indicate the same parts in all the views.
Let the numeral 5 designate the central bar or body of the device from which extend spaced fingers 6 from opposite sides of the bar, the said fingers being staggered as to position. The de vice is preferably madefrom India rubber or from some material containing sufiicient rubber to make it flexible and resilient, the fingers being formed preferably integral with the bar. The end finger '7 on one side of the bar is made somewhat longer than the adjacent finger 6 and is provided with a rounded offset 8 extending in the direction of the finger 6, the object being as heretofore indicated, to facilitate the operation of attaching the marceller to a strand of hair close to the scalp and to prevent the strand of hair 9 from slipping oif the end of the finger and at the beginning of the operation. This increased l ngth supplemented by the rounded offset, completely overcomes the tendency of the strand of hair to slip from the device, either wholly or partially at the beginning of the oporation.
As heretofore stated, this construction has a decided advantage over a hook-shaped device in the same location, from the fact that there is ample space between the finger '7 and the adjacent finger 6 for the insertion of the strand of hair without any tendency to the breaking of the hair, which last named difiiculty is experienced as heretofore noted in the use of wavers provided with hooks in the position of the finger '7.
By making the end finger 7 longer than the other fingers on the same side so that its end extends beyond the outer end of the adjacent finger on the same side, the projecting end of the longer finger will catch the strand and facilitate its insertion into the space between the end finger and the adjacent finger. '90
While this device is preferably made flat on both sides, as illustrated in Figs. 1, 2 and 3, it may be slightly rounded or ribbed to any desired extent on either or both sides, as indicated in Figs. 4 and 5.
The body of the device is provided at the end adjacent the finger '7 with a rounded projection 10 and at the opposite end by a similar projection 12. This feature facilitates the fastening of the strand of hair in place by means of a rubber band 13 which is illustrated in Fig. 1.
Other means, may, of course, be employed for the performance of this fastening function,
but the rubber band is a simple and inexpensive article and admirably answers the desired purpose.
As shown in the drawing the body part of the finger 7 may be made somewhat narrower 10 than the other fingers of the device, thus mak-' ing it possible to reduce the length and weight of the waver which is always desirable for obvious reasons.
It will thus be noted that my improved waver, while exceedingly simple in construction, fully performs the function required of an article of this class.
Having described my invention what I claim 1. A hair waver comprising an elongated body member having spaced fingers extending from opposite sides thereof, one of the end fingers having an enlargement on the side nearer the adjacent finger to hold the hair in place.

ll. A hair waver comprising, a body member having spaced fingers extending from opposite sides thereof, one of the end fingers being longer than and extending beyond the free end of the adjacent finger on the same side to facilitate the attachment of the strand of hair at the beginning of the operation.
