Description
Patente-cl July 8, 1947 UNITED STATES PATE-NT OFFICE HAIRPIN DISPENSER Bela A. Muuer-Molnar, New York, N. Y.
.Application May 14, 1945, Serial No. 593.660
2 Claims. (Cl. 31263) This invention relates to hair pin dispensing apparatus, and it has for its object to provide a device which will accommodate a considerable amount of hair pins, easily disposed in the latter, and which may be manually or automatically discharged irom said apparatus.
yIt may in this connection be stated that my said device may well have a wide scope of usefulness.
With the above and other objects in View, ythis invention consists of the novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts, hereinafter fully described, claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawing forming part of this specification, and in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all views, and in which: Y
Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view through the device in conformity with the invention.
Figure 2 is a sectional view, taken on the line 2-2 ln Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a sectional View, taken on the line 3-3 in Figure 1.
Figure 4 is an end View in the direction of the lines 4-4 in Figure 1; while Figure 5 is a partial View of a guide rack and lead bar.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, the hair pin dispensing apparatus I0 consists of the housing I I, having a top wall I2, bottom wall I3, and side walls I4 and I5.
A dispensing mechanism I6 is arranged inside the housing I I; said dispensing mechanism comprises a guide rack I1, fxedly secured at one end to the rear wall I9 as at I8, and abutting at its other end the front wall 2|.
A rod 22 is flxedly secured at one end to the rear wall I9 and removable with the latter and the guide rack I1; said guide rack has its other end supported by the front plate 2 I, as shown especially in Figure 2.
A follower plate 24 is slidably mounted on the rod 22, and is held against the hair pins 25 by a compression spring 2S.
The said follower has two horizontal extensions 21 and 28 arranged to ride on top edge 29 of the guide rack I1. A downward projection 29a assists in keeping the follower in alignment; the upper portion 30 of said follower is provided with a notch 3l, whereby to clear the lead bar 23.
The rod 22 passes through the opening 32 of the follower. The hair pins 25 are pushed against the front plate 2| and as the guide rack I1 is provided with a flare 33 at its front end the said flare will cause the hair pins 25 riding on the latter to be spread apart due to the inherent spring action of said hair pins, thereby creating a tendency of the latter to return to their original and normal state, and thuscausing said hair pins to be forced upward.
The first hair pin 25a in a row will thus be forced out of the opening 34 in the -top wall I2 and will protrude slightly therefrom. The vhair pin 25a may also be forced partially out through the said hole 34 by pushing on a bail member.35, which will then Vpress against a lever 36 fulcrumed at 31 to the plate 2| and front cover wall 55.
The member A is provided ywith a turnedin portion 38 which rests on top of the arm 39a extending rearwardly from one end of lever 3.6.
The opposite end 36o of the lever 36 is provided with a slot 40 in which is slidably mounted a -pin 4I. This pin 4I has at one end a pushing shoe 42, which is arranged to slide on the flaring portion 33; said pin at the same time rides Vin the slot 43. The shoe 42 will thus force the hair pin 25a, partially out of the housing. A spring 44 ls arranged to keep the lever 36 in the normal posi tion shown in Figure 2.
The guide rack I1 consists of two guide portions 45 and 46 having an intermediate elongated portion bent upon itself as at 41, said guide portions 45 and 46 are, in turn, connected to the rear wall I9; said portions 45 and 46 are spread apart to generally conform to the V-shape of a hair pin, as may be seen in Figures 2 and 3; or they may have any convenient form or shape,
The lead bar 23 is xedly secured on top of the upwardly extending portion 41 of the guide rack I1.
The operation of my device is as follows:
The dispensing mechanism I6 is pulled out of the housing II, and the follower 24 is pulled against the tension of the spring 26 towards the rear wall I9; a cord, or similar means, is tied to the follower 24 by means of a knot 5I. Another knot 52 is located a distance away from the follower 24, this distance being equal to the length of the compressed spring 26 plus the thickness of the rear wall I9; the knot 52 is now passed through an opening 53 in the rear wall I9 and thereafter passed upward into the slot 54 thus locking the follower 24 in its extreme position. Hair pins 25 are now placed on the lead bar 23 and the guide rack I1 between the follower 24 and point A of the flared portion 33 of said guide rack I1.
The dispensing mechanism II is now inserted into the housing I I, the knot 52 of the cord is released and permitted to pass through the opening 53 thus allowing the spring 25 to exertv its pressure against the follower 24, thereby causing the hair pins 25 to be pressed towards the front plate 2|.
As previously described, the front pins will spread and ride upon the flaring portion 33, thus causing the rst hair pin in a row to be forced through the opening 34.
It is understood that while an auxiliary removing mechanism consisting of the bail 35 and levei` 36, as illustrated, may be used, the device will operate without such levers since the hair pin 25a may readily be grasped and pulled out of theV housing by hand.
At the same time the mechanism embodying the bail 35 and lever 3E may also be used separately without the guide rack Il.
A front cover 55 is secured to the front plate 2l by means of appropriate recesses or spaces, and rivets 56.
It is obvious that changes may be made in the form, construction and arrangement of the several parts, as shown, without departing from the spirit of the invention, and within the appended claims, and I do not, therefore, wish to limit myself to the exact construction shown and described herein.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is:
1. A hair pin dispensing apparatus, comprising a rectangular, horizontally elongated casing having a partition at the front thereof, said casing being formed with an opening at the top adjoining said partition and corresponding in size to the thickness of a hair pin, a removable rear wall at the end of said casing, a guide rack formed with a cut-out portion and having one end xedly secured to the rear wall, the other end of said guide rack extending to the partition,fthe front portion of said rack having an elongated intermediate portion bent upon itself to form a hair pin shape, a bar adapted to have anumber of hair pins mounted thereon, said bar having" its ends xedly secured to the rear wall and the top of said elongated portion, respectively, a rod having one end fixedly secured to the rear wall and the other end resting in an opening in said partition, a follower slidably mounted on said rod, and a spring actuating said follower, said spring being arranged between the rear wall and the follower, a cord for compressing said spring, one end of said cord being attached to the follower and the other end extending through a slot in the rear wall, the distance between the inner surface of the upper wall of the casing and the rod is of a size to accommodate only one row of hair pins, and means for dispensing said hair pins from the casing.
2. In a device, as claimed in claim 1, and wherein said partition is provided with a slot parallel with one side of the guide rack, a, lever ar- REFERENCES CITED The following references are of record in the le of this patent:
