PERMANENT WAVE CURLER Filed May 9, 1936 Patented Feb. 15, 1938 UNITED STATES PERMANENT WAVE CURLER Sidney Alexander Hamilton, Shreveport, La.
Application May 9,
1 Claim.
This invention relates to curlers for use in permanent Waving the hair.
Heretofore it has been the practice to use spindle-like structures having relatively rotatable parts and after the hair has been wrapped therearound and fastened to the respective parts of the curler, one of the parts of the curler has been rotated relative to the. other to tighten the wrapped hair on the curler and hold it until the hair has been heated and steamed sufficiently to retain the' curl. In tightening the wrapped hair, however, some of the whorls have been pulled more tightly than others due to the frictional contact of the hair with the surface of the elongated spindle on which the whorls are formed. Consequently the whorls of hair at one end of the curler have been drawn tighter than those at the other end. This has all resulted in unsatisfactory work in the lack of permanency and uniformity of the finished waves and curls.
An object of the present invention is to eliminate the uneven distribution of tension on the coiled hair by providing the spindle portion of the curler with anti-friction devices so that the wrapped hair on the spindle will not drag on the spindle when subjected to tension by a twisting action of the rotatable parts of the curler but will move longitudinally of its stands without objectionable frictional resistance, thereby insuring uniform stretching of all of the 'convolutions of the wrapped hair.
With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention consists of certain novel details of construction and combinations of parts hereinafter more fully described and pointed out in the claim, it being understood that changes may be made in the construction and arrangement of parts without departing from the spirit of the invention as claimed.
In the accompanying drawing the preferred form of the invention has been shown.
In said drawing:
Figure 1 is an elevation of the curler with hair wrapped therearound and held tightly.
Figure 2 is a central longitudinal section, a portion being broken away.
Figure 3 is a perspective View of one of the anti-friction members. 7
Figure 4 is an elevation of the complete curler.
Referring to the figures by characters of reference, I designates the handle of the curler with a concentric recess 2 in one end. A rod 4 is anchored at one end in handle I while its other 1936, Serial No. 78,926
end is anchored in a head 5 preferably tapered toward its free or outer end which is slotted longitudinally as shown at 6. V
The recessed end 2 of handle i is rotatably mounted on one end of an elongated spindle section 7 and the rod i is also rotatable in said section. One end of the spindle section is made smaller and a spring 9 is anchored at one end and wrapped therearound, the several convolutions of the spring being normally expanded against the wall of recess 2 so as to serve as a spring clutch which allows the section i to rotate in one direction independently of handle I but holds it against retrograde movement relative to the handle I.
Mounted on rod d between section 1 and head 5 is a series of alined cylindrical spindle sections it all rotatably mounted independently of each other and abutting at their ends. The end sections H can be tapered down to the diameter of the section I and head 5 respectively.
The outer faces of the sections 1, IE] and I! are flush and cooperate to form a spindle having a smooth outer surface formed of relatively rotatable portions and the outer surface of section I can be tapered or otherwise shaped so as to be easily gripped between the fingers of one hand while handle I is being held by the other hand.
In practice that portion of a lock or wisp of hair I-I nearest the scalp is tied to head 5 by a cord placedin slot 6 as shown at a. The hair is then wrapped about the curler and tied by another cord to the section I as shown at b. The operator grasps section I and the tied hair thereon in one hand and turns it in one direction while handle I is being held in the other hand. Head 5 thus is held against rotation while the section 1, which can rotate only in one direction because of spring clutch 9, will pull the hair about the sectional spindle and uniformly tightenand stretch the convolutions. During this operation the hair will cause independent rotation of the sections ill and H so that friction will be eliminated and all of the convolutions of hair tightened and stretched equally. As the clutch prevents retrograde movement of the section I, the hair will be held tightly after the twisting or curling operation until it is desired to release it whereupon the cords a and b are removed and the curler can be withdrawn.
What is claimed is:
A curler including a handle, a head, a rod connecting the handle and head, an elongated spindle section mounted for rotation on the rod and projecting into and rotatable within the handle, said section having one end tapered to provide a finger grip, means within said section for holding it against rotation in one direction relative to the handle, additional shorter spindle sections mounted for rotation on the rod between the head and the elongated spindle section, all of the sections abutting and being rotatable independently, said shorter sections cooperating to provide a spindle portion tapered at one end toward the elongated section and at its other end toward the head thereby to provide a 5 bulge.
