7 claims.
This invention relates to a device for waving hair and, in particular, to a spacer or clasp for holding separate locks of hair during the 4appli-- cation of a permanent wave.
p It is customary in giving permanent waves,` to use a spacer next the scalp Vfor holding a lock of hair while being treated to effecta permament wave therein. Various types of spacers have been used heretofore but noneof them, so
l far as I am aware, has performed its intended p the shape of a right triangle, the wings being so related that when closed, their altitudes are adjacent. One of the wings has a locking lever pivoted thereto adapted to hold the wings in closed position about a lock of hair. Further details and advantages of the invention will become apparent during the following complete description thereof which is to be read in connection with the accompanying drawing illustrating a preferred embodiment. It will be understood, however, that the invention may be embodied otherwise than as shown, within the scope of my broad claims. In the drawing- Fig. 1 is a plan view of my spacer, with parts omitted;
Fig. 2 is a side elevation;
Fig. 3 is a plan view to enlarged scale showing the spacer in open position;
Fig. 4 is a perspective View of a detail;
Fig. 5 is a perspective view showing the clasp in place, ready for reception of the permanent waving device;
Fig. 6 is a sectional view taken along a central plane parallel to the face of the spacer, parts being shown in elevation;
Fig. '7 is a sectional view taken along the line VTI-VII of Fig. 6; and
Fig. 8 is a perspective view of one of the wings before assembly.
Referring now in detail to the drawing, the spacer of my invention is indicated generally at I0 and comprises a pair of wings II and I2 Yposed adjacent each other. I2 may preferably be made by bending a flat pivotally connected. As shown in the drawing, the wings are so disposed that when the spacer is closed, the longer sides of the wings are dis- The Wings II and sheet of material having substantially the shape of an equilateral triangle, into the form best shown in Fig. 8 and providing spaced top and bottom surfaces I3 and I4 and a connecting side wall I5.
A bearing tongue I6 is secured to and extends outwardly from the apex of the wing I2. The tongue is secured to the wing by a rivet II. The wing II is pivoted to the tongue I6 by a rivet I8. The inner sides of the wings are notched as at I9 and are provided with resilient gripper pads 20 of rubber or similar material.
A locking lever 2| is pivoted to the wing II and has a tongue 22 adapted to engage the connecting side wall of the wing I2, as shown in Fig. 6. The extreme end of the locking lever projects beyond the wing I2 when the spacer is closed, to facilitate pulling out the lever and opening the spacer.
The spacer is provided at each corner with feet 23 adapted to engage the scalp and maintain the body of the spacer at a distance therefrom.
In using the spacer of my invention, the hair is gathered in a lock as indicated at 24. With the wings Il and I2 open as shown in Fig. 3` the spacer is disposed about the lock of hair and the wings thereof closed with the lock in alinement with the notches I9. The rubber pads 20 yield adjacent the notches as the spacer is closed about the lock with the result that the hair is gripped tightly with a uniform pressure at all points and is maintained in a substantially cylindrical lock without any tendency to spread along the line of division between the wings II and I2. When the spacer has been closed, the locking lever 2| is actuated to the position shown in Fig. 6 whereby the Wings are tightly held together.
When properly applied, the spacer bears but lightly on the scalp and because of its low weight is not apt to cause discomfort. When the permanent waving operation is completed, the locking lever 2I is opened and the spacer removed from the strand.
It will be apparent from the foregoing description that the inventiony is characterized by numerous novel features and advantages, some of which have already 'been mentioned. The device is simple in construction and can be manufactured at relatively low cost. The shape of the spacer permits a shape, the desired number of them to be disposed in close proximity without interfering with each other, in the region of the head which is to be subjected to permanent Waving. When Vthe spacer is closed about a lock of hair, and the locking lever actuated, there is no danger of accidental opening of the spacer. On the contrary, lthe spacer tightly grips the lock of hair until the locking lever is positively actuated to permit the Wings to be spread apart.
Although I have illustrated and described but a preferred embodiment of the invention, it will be understood that changes in the construction or arrangement thereof may be made Without departing from the spirit of the invention yor the scope of the appended claims.
I claim:
1. A spacer comprising a pair of members each having substantially the shape of a right triangle, said members lying in the same plane and being pivotally connected with their corresponding altitudes adjacent each other.
2. A spacer having generally the shape of an equilateral triangle and composed of a pair of members shaped like a right .triangle and pivotally connected with their corresponding altitudes adjacent.
3. A spacer comprising a pair of members each having substantially the shape of a right triangle, said members lying in the lsame plane and being pivotally connected with their corresponding altitudes adjacent each other, each of said members comprising sheet metal in the form of an equilateral triangle bent double along its altitude.
4. A spacer having generally the shape of an equilateral triangle and composed of a pair of members shaped like a right triangle and pivotally connected with their corresponding altitudes adjacent, said spacer having spaced feet projecting therefrom adapted to engage the head of the wearer.
5. A spacer comprising a pair of members each having substantially the shape of a right triangle, said members lying in the same plane and being pivotally connected with their corresponding altitudes adjacent each other, and a locking lever -pivoted on one member and engageable with the other.
6. A spacer comprising a pair of members each having substantially the shape of a right triangle, said members lying in the same plane and being pivotally connected Wirth their corresponding altitudes adjacent each other, said altitudes being notched to receive a lock of hair therebetween.
7. A spacer comprising a pair of members each having substantially the shape of a right triangle, said members lying in the same plane and being pivotally connected With their corresponding altitudes adjacent each other, said altitudes being notched to receive a lock of hair therebetween and having a surface layer of compressible material thereon.
