ATTORNEY.
F BY 1/579)? 179M561 Patented May 19, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 6 Claims.
This invention relates to hair curlers, and has for its main object to provide a new and improved hair curling device for such use by private persons, that a strand of hair is clasped within and wound on and left within the device, pinned to the bulk of the hair, until the strands of hair have been dried and set, whereupon'the device is opened again or left with the hair wound thereon for any certain length of time.
There has already been known certain hair curling devices, to be used in the manner described above, for instance, those described and illustrated in my pending United States patent application No. 677,895, but these known constructions have not proven satisfactory, due to the fact that they consist of a number of parts which require a certain amount of skill for handling the device, and which, furthermore, are liable to become entangled with the hair, so as to impedethe subsequent removal of the device out of the curled hair.
The object of the present invention is therefore, to provide a simplified construction of such hair curling devices, which is less difficult to handle, and which will not become entangled with the curled hair.
Another important fact of this invention, is that the simplified construction of my new and improved hair curling device will make this easier to manufacture and assemble, and less expensive, and therefore to be placed on the market at popular prices.
In order to carry out the objects of the invention, I have devised a construction, consisting essentially'of a wire made loop forming a main body with a third wire running parallel and close to and cooperating with the one leg of this loop, in order to clamp the end of a strand of hair, and consisting further of an ordinary U-shaped hair pin, which is slidably fastened within the one end of the beforesaid main body, so that after winding the strand of hair on the said main body, this U-shaped hair pin may be pushed into the curled hair to fasten it temporarily to the bulk of hair close to the scalp of the person using the device. In a modified construction of my device two'U-shaped hair pins are slidably fastened at the two endsrespectively of a main body, which latter consists of a simple loop or of two parallel legs having suitable means at their ends to carry the said U-shaped hair pins.
In order that my invention may be fully understood, I have shown the before characterized embodiment of same in the drawing forming part of this specification, in which drawing:
Figures 1, 2, 3, 4 are four slightly different constructions, each comprising a main body of the form of a loop with a third leg provided close to the one leg of this loop, and a block closing this loop, in combination with a U-shaped hair pin 5 slidably fastened within the said closing block.
Figure 5 is a modification of the invention, in which two U-shaped hair pins are slidably fastened within two blocks respectively, which blocks form the two ends of a main body having two 10 parallel legs.
Figure 6 is a modification in which two shorter U-shaped hair pins areslidably fastened in the two shorter sides respectively of a closed rectangular frame or legs. 15
Figure 7 is another modification of the invention.
Figure 8 is a modification, in which two U- shaped hair pins are slidably fastened in a rectangular frame having two end blocks hinged to 20 wire-made longer frame sides.
Figure 9 is a modification in which one U- shaped hair pin is slidably fastened in a rectangular frame consisting of one end block and a wire-made loop hinged into this. end block.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, in the embodiment of the invention shown in the Figure 1, the main body of the device consists of the wire-made two-legged straight or slightly curved 100p II, and a third straight or curved 30 piece of wire l2, running close to the one leg of the loop, the ends of which loop H and the one end of the wire I2 being hinged in an arc or bowshaped metallic block I 3. The middle part of this block I 3 has two holes bored through it 5 parallel to the legs I l and to the wire 12, and the two shanks of a U-shaped hair pin M are passed slidably through the said holes of the block I3. The three free ends of the wire I 2 and of the hair pin shanks I4 are provided with small en- 40 largements or balls IS, in well known manner, so as to prevent the skin of the scalp from being hurt by the pointed ends of these wires and to prevent furthermore, the hair pin M from being completely pulled out of the main body. 45 The use of this new and improved hair curling device is easily understood to be as follows: With the hair pin l4 being more or less pulled back, as is shown in the Figure 1, the end of a strand of hair is slightly clamped between the wire I2 and the adjoining leg of the loop l2; then, by turning the loop around its longitudinal axis, the strand of hair is wound around the main body of the device, until the device is close to the scalp of the person, and thereupon the hair pin 14 is pushed through the cluster of the wound hair and the bulk of the rest of the hair close to the scalp.
When the hair has been dried and set, so that it will remain in the curled position, the U-shaped hair pin I4 is withdrawn from the cluster of hair, whereafter the whole device may be easily removed from the curled hair.
The construction of the embodiment shown in Figure 2 is essentially alike to that of the previous example, the only difference being, that the legs of the loop l6 and the wire I! adjacent to the one leg |6 are hinged to a cylindrical block I8 through the middle part of which block pass the two shanks of the U-shaped hair pin l9. As in the previous case the free ends of the wire I! and of the hair pin I!) are provided with small enlargements or balls 20. The handling and the working of this hair-curling device is likewise the same as in the previous example.
The hair curling device shown in Figure 3 has as its main body an endblock 2| of the shape of a half-circular disk, at the diametrical end of which the two-legged loop 22 and the single wire 23 are hinged, which loop and wire extend in an essentially straight forward direction, with only the closing end 24 of the loop being slightly curbed, whereas the wire 23 is shorter and straight over its whole length. A U-shaped hair pin is passed with its one shank 25 slidably through the end block 2| of the main body entering into it at the middle ofv its peripheric part and leaving it at the middle of its diametrical end. The other shank 26 of the U-shaped hair pin passes at the side of the end block 2|. Therefore this hair pin, in addition to being slidable within the end block 2| may further be swung round its one shank 25, which fact increases the adjustability of this hair pin. For the rest the handling and the working of this hair curling device is analo gous to that of the previous example. The hair curling device shown in Figure 4, combines features of the two constructions shown in the Figures 1 and 3, in so far, as to an arcuate end block 21, a wire made loop 28 and a single wire 29 hinged, which loop and wire are shaped as described with reference to Figure 3, whereas the U-shaped hair pin 30 is joined to this main body by having its one shank only passing slidably through the middle part of the arcuate end block 2|,'the other shank of the hair pin passing freely at the side of this end block. The handling and working of. this device is the same as before.
Attention may be called to the fact, that in all four devices shown in the Figures 1 to 4, the wire loop and the single wire adjoining the one leg of this loop are one single piece of wire, which wire is bent accordingly so as to form these two parts of the main body of the device, which construction simplifies the manufacturing of the device and reduces the cost of same. Furthermore, attention may be paid to the fact, that the hingeforming connection of these wire-made parts with the end block of the main body results in a very great pliability of the device, which is desirable in order to fit in with more or less thick hair clusters, which may be worked upon in different cases of the application of the device.
In the embodiment of. the invention shown in Figure 5 the main body of the hair curling device is made by bending a piece of wire, so as to form two side by side running legs 3|, 32, united at the one side by an eyelet 33 which in a girdlelike manner, embraces an end block 34 having two holes. The two shanks of a U-shaped hair pin 35 are slidably passed through the two holes of this end block and secured thereto by little balls at the ends of the shanks, as in the previous examples. The one leg 3| of the main body ends likewise in a small ball, whereas the other leg 32 holds, in a girdlelike manner, another end block 36, having likewise two holes through which are slidably passed the shanks of another U-shaped hair pin 31 with little balls at the ends of the shanks. In using this hair curling device a strand may be clasped between the two legs 3|, 32 of the main body, while the device is in wide open posi-- tion as shown in Figure 4; then, after pushing the one of the two hair pins through its coordinate end block into a position side by side with the main body, the strand of hair may be wound around this complex formed by this one hair pin and the main body, and finally the other hair pin is pushed through its coordinate end block into the cluster of the wound-up hair and the bulk of hair close to the scalp of the person using the device.
The embodiment of the invention shown in Figure 6 has a main body consisting in a preferably wire made rectangular frame 38 with a bridge 39 in its middle part. The two opposing shorter sides of this frame have each one two holes, through which holes are slidably passed the shanks of two U-shaped hair pins 40, 4| with little balls at the ends of the shanks. In using this curling device with the hair pins being first drawn out of the frame, a strand of hair is wound up around the main body, 38, whereupon the two hair pins 4|], 4| are pushed from both sides into the frame with the cluster of hair on it, until the ends of the shanks meet over the bridge 39.
According to the embodiment of the invention shown in the Figure '7 the rectangular framelike main body of the curling device has at its one end a small bar 42 with two holes for the passage of the shanks of a U-shaped hair pin as described before. The preferably wire made legs 43, 44 of the main body and a third single Wire 45 extending parallel close to the one leg 43 are hinged at 46 to cars provided at the two ends of the bar 42. For the rest, the construction of this curling device and its application may be exactly as that of any of the previous ex amples.
According to the embodiment shown in the Figure 8, a rectangular frame-like main body comprises two endblocks 41, the flanged ends of which are in hinge-connection with the two wire-made longer sides 48, 49 of the frames, one of these two wires, e. g., the wire 49 being elongated so as to form an arm 50, which extends lengthwise within the flame. The shanks of two U-shaped hair pins 5|, 52 are slidably passed through corresponding holes in the two endblocks, respectively.
Figure 9 finally shows an embodiment of the invention, in which a rectangular frame-like main body contains one endblock 53, the flanged ends of which are in hinge-connection with a wire-made angularly bent loop 54, the one end of which is elongated within the loop so as to form a longitudinally extending inner arm 55. The shanks of one U-shaped hair pin 56 are slidably passed through corresponding holes in the endblock 53.
It is to be understood that the invention is not restricted to the herein described and illustrated constructions, but will include still other embodiments or variations, well within the claims,
and which variations will easily suggest themselves to those familiar with the art.
