CURLER Filed Nov. 4, 1955 Patented Dec. 15, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT. OFFICE 1 Claim.
This invention relates tocurlers, and particularly to a type of curler adapted to form a curl without the use. of some external or internally applied heating means. Specifically, the
invention contemplates a curler of the type wherein hair is wrapped about a tubular member and after so wrapped, held in curled position on said tubular member by certain means cooperating therewith. This tubular member 'is so formed as to permit the curl to air dry and in this connection, it is customary to dampen the hair prior to curling the same about the tube. Circulation of air is permitted through the tube and externally of the tube, to the end that the hair rapidly dries, a curl is quickly formed, and it is possible for a woman to curl her hair while she is dressing to go out to a party.
Specifically, the invention contemplates a novel means whereby a latch member is at all times maintained centered with respect to the curling tube. This latch member is preferably formed of rubber or other resilient material and acts to hold a clamp in substantially parallel relation to the curler tube when the hair is coiled about the tube. It has been found; however, that the latch member does not always center itself for end latch engagement with the tube, and the present invention. has for an object the provision of means whereby centering of the latch '30 for latching engagement with the end of the tube erally. The drawing and the description to follow set forth one aspect of the invention.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a rear elevation showing the improved curler engaging hair which has been coiled thereabout for the purpose of curling the hair,
Figure 2 is .a perspective view of the improved curler, the parts being separated;
50 Figure 3 shows the parts of the curler of Figure 2 in a changed relationship.
Figure 4 is an end view of the curler, and Figure 5 is a plan view of the curler, the parts being separated. 55 Referring now to the drawing, the improved curler is designatedas an entirety by'the numeral i. The same includes a curler body 2, a clamp 3, and a jaw 4. The curler body in the present instance, is in the form of an elongated conical tube, with the keeper end 5 of said tube 5 of small cross-sectional diameter with respect to the opposite end 6 of said tube. The said tube, however, need not, of necessity, be conical but may be of uniform diameter. The tube is provided with a-series of longitudinally aligned and 10v alternately staggered rows of transverse perforations, as shown at 1 and 8. These perforations are provided for the purpose of allowing air to flow inwardly of, or outwardly from, the interior of the tube. One end of said tube is 15 provided with diametrically disposed and ofiset perforations in the zone marked in Figure 4 by the numerals 9 and it. The clamp 3 may comprise a wire bent to form, as this lends for simplicity of construction. This wire includes two side arm members H and I2 which may be angularly related with an interconnecting piece l3 between said side arms. This interconnecting piece forms a continuation of the side arms and is adapted to have one portion I4 thereof act as a carrier member fora resilient latch I5. 25 This resilient latch may be formed of rubber or other suitable material and has two substantially parallel sides i6 and I! and a. curved rim or periphery l8. The extremities of the said arms H and H are bent inwardly to form two portions l9 and 20, which are adapted to be passed through the openings in the zones 9 and Ill of the body, and when so associated with the tube, overlap within said tube, as shown in Figure 4.
If the jaw 4 is utilized, this jaw will likewise be held to the tube in the following manner,-- the jaw includes a transversely curved, elongated member 2| provided at one end with diametrically disposed perforated ears 22 and 23, and the. end portions l9 and 20 of the clamp are first passed through the' openings of the perforated ears and then through the openings in the body and inwardly of the body, as best shown in Figure 4. This clamp may be formed with a longitudinally extending series of spaced transverse perforations 24 adapted to register with the perforations shown at I, when the clamp is in bodyengaging position, as shown in Figures 3 and 5.
It has been found in actual use and practice that the resilient latch does not always engage the keeper end 5 of the curler body 2, due to the fact that hair may be wound in a bunched manner upon the curler body, with the result that the clamp is sprung to one side and the latch fails to center the keeper end 5 of the tube. To overcome this, I have provided a novel construction wherein the resilient latch is at all times maintained centered with relation to the clamp, and as a consequence, will be centered with relation to the keeper end 5 of the tube. This construction, while illustrated in the difierent figures, is best shown in Figure 5, wherein it will be seen that both the arms H and I2 are'bent inwardly at 25 and 26, then provided with portions 21 and 28 closely adjacent to and substantially parallel with the sides l6 and I! of the resilient roller latch. This latch member is carried upon the part l4.
The operation, uses and advantages of the invention are as follows:
When it is desired to use the curler, one end of the hair is placed between the body of the curler and the jaw 4, with the clamp swung outwardly. This position is shown in Figure 5 for the parts just mentioned. The curler is then rotated transversely so that the hair is wound thereupon to form a curl. After the desired degree of tightness of curl has been made, the clamp is then rotated so that the same will parallel the longitudinal axis of the curler body, the resilient roller latch member engaging the keeper end 5. In this respect, a portion of the side and periphery of the resilient roller latch will be received in part within the keeper opening 5 of the curler body. As the roller is prevented from sliding movement on the part 4 due to the presence of the guides therefor, being the portions marked 21 and 28, the roller will at all times engage the keeper end 5. In Figure 5, I have illustrated by dotted lines 29 the curler body showing its relationship to the resilient roller latch when the resilient roller latch is engaging the curler body.
It will be seen, by observing the dotted line position of the curler body, that the present construction is such as to at all times assure that the roller latch, together with the clamp, will be properly centered with respect to the body.
By having the side arms I I and I2 closely parallel diametrically opposite sides of the curler body, the said clamp will normally engage the hair without being angularly moved out of position with relation to the body. Furthermore, the inwardly bent portions 25 and 26, due to their close proximity to the end of the curler body, when the clamp is swung to parallel the longitudinal axis of the body, materially assist in centering the clamp. Expansion of the clamp is permitted by the overlapped ends l9 and 20. Thus, the curler is capable of accommodating different thicknesses of curl.
I claim:
A curler including a tubular body, a wire clamp hinged to one end of said tubular body, a disc roller carried by said clamp adapted to latch said clamp to said tubular body when the said clamp parallels the axis of said body, said clamp being bent to provide two spaced-apart parallel portions and an interconnecting portion, said disc roller carried on said interconnecting portion and interposed between said parallel portions to maintain said disc roller in a defined position relative to the clamp.
