4 Claims.
This invention relates to hair waving one object of the invention being to provide a hair waving device which is inexpensive, very easy to operate, and by means of which hair can be waved by. a person not having special training without danger 0t injuring the hair.
Another object of the invention is to provide a setting iron which is very simple in construction, and can be easily held in a persons hand and engaged about hair to be set and in addition so form the iron that it may be secured about a lock of hair and suspended from an overhead support during the heating operation.
Another object of the invention is to provide an iron which may be heated by a gas flame or other suitable source of heat, thereby permitting the device to be used in places where electricity is not available.
Still another object of the invention resides in providing a construction which is simple and durable, inexpensive to manufacture and one which will be very efficient in use.
With these and numerous other objects in view, our invention consists in-the novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter referred to and more particularly pointed out in the specification and claims.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying vdrawings whereinz- Figure 1 is a View in side elevation showing the improved waving device in use and suspended from an overhead support.
Figure 2 is a plan view of one .of the sections forming the setting iron.
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken longitudinally through the setting iron in use.

protect the scalp when the device is in use.
Figure 6 Ba sectional view taken along the line 66 of Figure 1.
Figure '7 is a sectional view taken along the line 11 of Figure 1.
When waving hair in accordance with this invention a lock of hair is wrapped about a core or shaper which may be referred to as a roller and is then wrapped in cotton saturated with a concentrated solution of potassium bicarbonate. The Wrapped lock is then encased in a sheet of lead foil and disposed within a cylindrical heating iron where it remains until the chemical is driven oil by the heat of the iron, ends of the iron being open in order that steam Figure 5 is a view of a shielding disk used to may escape. Only from five to twelve minutes is required to "setthe hair and the curl will remain in the hair until it disappears as the hair grows and ends are cut off. The setting iron is about the size of a curling iron of a conventional 5 construction and may be easily applied by hand and so held during the setting operation or it may be suspended by a cord from an overhead support as it is light in weight.
The setting iron is somewhat similar in 'construction to a curling iron and consists of companion sections or members I each having at its forward end a. blade from which extends a shank 2 carrying a handle 3 at its rear end. The shanks extend in crossed relation to each other and are pivotally connected by a pin or stud 4- and by referring to Figure 1 it will be readily understood that when the handles are grasped the shanks can be rocked about the pivot and the blades moved towards or away from each other according to the direction in which the handles are moved. The blades are each in the form of a trough shaped body arcuate in cross section and by referring to Figures 3 and 4 it will be seen that when the blades. are in a closed position with their side edge faces 5 contacting they form a tubular heating chamber 6 which is circular in cross section and open at its ends to permit steam generated during a setting operation to readily escape. A latch 1 is pivoted to the shank 30 of one member as shown at 8 and this latch is in the form of a hook having a bill 9 to engage over a prong or keeper I0 carried by' the shank of the other member when the blades are closed and the latch moved to the position shown in Figure 1 in which it extends transversely of the shanks 2 with the keeper wedged between the bill and shank of the latch. A hook II extends transversely from the shank carrying the keeper andto this hook may be tied a cord l2 by n means of which the setting iron is to be suspended from an overhead support. It will thus be seen that the setting iron may be easily applied ma curled lock of hair and secured after which it may be held in a persons hand or suspended from an overhead support during a setting operation. Protectors l3 each of which consists of an asbestos disk formed with a center opening l4 and a radially extending slit l5 are applied about the lock of hair near the front end of the 50 setting iron in order to prevent a persons scalp from being scalded by hot steam escaping at the front of the chamber 6.
When hair is to be crimped, a lock is wrapped about a core in the form of a metal roller IG' of Vless length than the chamber a and after the hair has been wrapped tightly about the'roller a sheet of' cotton batting I1 is folded about the hair and extends entirely about the hair for full length thereof. Before being wrapped about the 'hair the cotton pad or sheet is dipped in a concentrated solution of potassium bicarbonate and after the moistened cotton is in place it is covered by asheet of lead foil l8 wrapped tightly about the cotton and'entirely enclosing it; This lead foil serves'as a shield to'prevent scorching the cotton or hair and. retains heat generated when the blades I are closed about the hair and, cotton and heat of the iron converts the chemical into steam. The chemical consists ofthefollowing ingredients in approximately the proportions set forth.
Potassii bicarbonas -l 145.60 gm.
1 The pads or cotton Vsheets are of approximately 7 A; inch thick and each is soaked with 5 cc-of the chemical solution either individually or a numb'er saturated atone'time in the proper quantity 7 e V of solution? Afte'r the iron has remain in place from?) to 12 minutes according to the curl whichfit is desired to impart to the hair and the'iron and padthen removed-and the lock 7 of hair uncoiled from the roller.
treated in thesame manner and when all have been curled the 'hair'is washed with soap and tepid water and the curled locks set in place about the head in the usual manner. a
We have therefore provided an improved setting iron which is easy to operate and can be readily held in a persons hand while being applied to the hair and securely held in place about the hair. We have further provided a setting iron which when in place can .be held in a persons hand during a setting operation or suspended from an overhead support by a cord tied. to a portion of the iron.
From the foregoing description of the construction of our improved apparatus, the application of the same to use will be readily understood. It will be seen that we have provided a simple, inexpensive and Vefiicient setting iron. V V While we have particularlydescribed the elementsbest adapted to perform the function set forth, it is obvious that various changes in form, proportion and in the minordetails of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or'sacrificing any of the principles of the invention.
