HAIR CURLER Filed July l5, 1955 Edward JU Patented July 7, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT oFFlcs HAIR CURLER Edward J. Campion, Newark, N. J .j ApplicationJuly 15, 1935, Serial No. 31,503
6 Claims.
This inventionrelates to hair curlers and the primary object thereof is to provide a curlerwhich has improved means for mounting and releasably retaining an elastic, that holds ythefhair in posi-v tionr..
byr agparft of the body thereby to conceal and protect same so that no contact thereof with the hair is had.
Further the invention aims to provide an elastic retainer which can be easily and quickly placed in and removed from operative position, and which when in operative position effectively retains the hair in place.
Still further, the invention aims to provide elastic retaining means which is of simplified and economical form and which can be easily and quickly anchored to the body of the curler, and thereby also expedite assembly with attendant decrease in production cost.
Still further and other objects will appear and of themselves manifested in the course of the following description.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view, showing the parts in inoperative position;
Fig. 2 is an enlarged longitudinal sectional view, showing the parts in operative position;
Fig. 3 is a section on line 3 3 of Fig. 2, and
Fig. 4 is a perspective view of a modification.
In proceeding in accordance with the present invention, a tubular body I is provided, which preferably is of sheet-metal and which is of oval form in cross-section. Openings 2, are formed in the body for Ventilating purposes. Obviously, however, the body may be of various crosssectional forms and the Ventilating openings also varied as may be desired, without departing from the essence of the invention. An arm 3, which preferably has a longitudinal strengthening rib 4 struck-out therefrom, is pivoted to a Side of the body at one end of the latter, by means of a hollow eyelet or rivet 5. An elastic cord 6 is provided, the free end of which has a preferably metal tip 'l secured thereto. This tip is, as depicted in the drawing, of the familiar shoe-lace type and functions in a dual manner, namely as (o1. man) ameansto prevent unravelling of the end of the elastic and toalso releasably secure same to the body, as will be now set forth in detail. TheV opposite end of the elastic Ycord is anchored or fastened to the body l, and to effect anchorage such 5.Y
opposite end is Niirst threaded through the hollow rivet 5 fromthe exterior thereof and moved to lie beyond the adjacent end of the body, to an extent suiiicient to enable the assembler to tie a knotgB on the said end of the elastic, following Which the 10.'
tipped end of the elastic is drawn away from the bodyto cause the knot thereof to enter the-body and abut the eyeletor rivet 5. Thus itwill be apparent that assemblage is easilyandv quickly effected, and in addition the elastic anchorage ,is 15- concealed and protected by the housing and the appearance of the device enhanced. The eyelet 5 also performs a dual function, namely as a pivot for the arm 3, and also as an anchorage for the elastic.
In operation, a strand of hair is positioned between the body I and the arm 3, following which the device is turned to roll the Strand thereover, and finally the elastic is engaged over the strand and the tip 1 merely inserted in the body. It will 2;, be noted that when the tip occupies the position of Fig. 2, the part 8 of the elastic which engages the end edge of the body at one side thereof exerts tension on the tip so as to cause the free end of the tip to be held engaged with the opposite side 30 of the body. This engagement is purely frictional and obviously therefore enables the tip to be easily withdrawn to release the elastic.
Thus it will be seen that the entire tip is held concealed within and protected by the body, so 35 that no contact of same with the hair is had.
The invention, it is stressed, is characterized by its extreme simplicity, not only as concerns manufacture of the parts, but also assemblage. The minimum of parts employed, totalling but 40 five in number, and the ease and certainty, as Well as rapidity, of operation renders the device highly advantageous. The simple act of insertion of the elastic tip in and removal from the open end of the body is easily and instantly ac- 45 complished and without tedious effort in use.
In Fig. 4, in lieu of knotting the elastic cord, the latter has a tip I0 on its inner end. In this form, the body Il, in assembly is in its unfolded form. The tip I0 is first inserted through the 50 eyelet l2, following which the body is bent into the form shown in Figs. 1 2, thus permanently anchoring the cord 9 to the body in a manner simulating the releasable anchorage of the tip 1 depicted in Fig. 3. 55
What is claimed is:
1. In a hair curler, a tubular body, an arm, a hollow rivet pivotally connecting one end of the arm to one end of one side of the body, and an elastic cord having one end extending through the rivet and having a knot tied on its terminal which knot lies within the body and abuts the inner end of the rivet, the opposite end of the cord having a metal tip of a diameter considerably less than that of the interior of the body receivable in the opposite end of the body and of such length whereby the tension exerted by the elastic cord on the tip causes the latter to extend at an angle across the interior of the body and the free terminal of the tip to be frictionally engaged with the opposite side of the body to thereby releasably hold the elastic cord in operative position.
2. In a hair curler, a tubular body, an arm, a hollow rivet pivotally connecting one end of the arm to one end of one side of the body, and an elastic cord having one end extending through the rivet and having a stop means thereon which lies within the body and abuts the inner end of the rivet, and a member on the opposite end of the elastic cord of a diameter considerably less than that of the interior of the body receivable in the opposite end of the body and of such length to extend at an angle across the interior of the body and having a free end to be frictionally held engaged with the opposite side of the body by the tension exerted on the member through the elasticity of the cord.
3. In a hair curler, a body having a hollow end, an arm, means to pivotally connect one end of the arm to a side of the opposite end of the body, an elastic member having one end anchored to the body, and a member on the opposite end of the elastic member of a diameter considerably less than that of the interior of the hollow end of the body and of a length to extend at an angle thereacross and having a free end to be held frictionally engaged with the opposite side of the body by the elasticity of the elastic member.
4. In a hair curler, a hollow body, an arm, hollow means to pivotally connect one end of the arm to a side of the body and having an inner end spaced from the opposite side of the body, an elastic member having one end extending through said hollow means and having means thereon which lies within the body and engages said inner end of the hollow means so as to anchor said end of the elastic member to the body, and means on the opposite end of the elastic member receivable in the hollow end of the body and having a free end and being of such length whereby through the elasticity of the member to cause said free end to be engaged with said opposite side of the body thereby to releasably attach the member to the body.
5. A hair curler in accordance with claim 4 wherein the means on the elastic member which engages the hollow means consists of a tip which has a free end that engages the said opposite side of the body.
6. A hair curler in accordance with claim 4, wherein each of the means carried by the elastic member consists of a stii` tip-like member.
