Abstract
The present invention relates to a hair pin capable of holding hair in a bundle form, in which a connection region of a joint device connected to an upper gripper is in a non-contact state at an upper portion of an pushing part of the upper gripper, so that frequent breakage of the connection region of the joint device, which occurs in a conventional hair pin that is manufactured in a small size, can be prevented from occurring. In the hair pin, a lower gripper and an upper gripper are coupled to each other in a form of a gripper through lower and upper hinge parts, a collecting part is rotatably connected to a front end of the upper gripper, and a joint part is connected between the collecting part and the upper gripper.
Description
- The present invention relates to a hair pin, and more particularly, a hair pin capable of holding hair in a bundle form, in which a connection region of a joint device connected to an upper gripper is in a non-contact state at an upper portion of an pushing part of the upper gripper, so that frequent breakage of the connection region of the joint device, which occurs in a conventional hair pin that is manufactured in a small size, can be prevented from occurring.
- The inventor of the present invention has disclosed a hair pin for holding hair in a bundle form as generally known in the art.
- One of such a hair pin is disclosed in Korean Patent Registration No. 10-0980909, which will be described with reference to
FIG. 1 . - The hair pin is configured such that a lower clip piece 3 and an upper clip piece 2 are coupled to each other in a form of a gripper through a bracket 2 b, a finger 4 is rotatably connected to a front end of the upper clip piece 2, a rear end of the finger 4 is connected to a front end of a guide loop 5, and a rear end of the guide loop 5 is connected to a rear side of the upper clip piece 2.
- Therefore, the hair pin configured as described above is interlocked with the finger 4 and the guide loop 5 when the upper clip piece 2 and the lower clip piece 3 perform a gripping operation to grip the hair.
- The finger 4 serves to grip the hair by a front end thereof, and the guide loop 5 rotates the finger 4 while supporting the gripped hair together with the upper clip piece 2.
- While performing such a gripping operation, a tip 5 t of the guide loop 5 repeatedly performs a sliding operation in a sliding groove 2 k formed in a connection part 2 q of the upper clip piece 2.
- However, the tip 5 t of the guide loop 5 is relatively thin, so that the tip 5 t is easily broken particularly in the case of a small hair pin.
- The reason for this is that surface coating is performed to express glossiness during the production of the hair pin. As surface hardness of a product is increased by the coating, the small hair pin may be easily broken.
