Applicationunmgiust hl, 19416, seriall-Nandilfi'l gi 1 invention :relates to a pin or: clamp-tabs :employed in holding andzlfining cunls uponnnds The invention invol-ues quitea- .i-ew -adwmitages, particularly in that '23.: struct1-1re-emhedging it holds curl tightly in: a clamped nondition, preventing slipp ge oi the pln and assuiting :a better hurling i ob: it grips the hair unaier each individual: curl .gtO hold the curl fiat, and. eliminates the ossibi'l-i-ty at the min slipping loosesfrom the hair; :only one pin is! required tor slash it is wary meat appearing inex- ==pensive in oost or promotion; and the pins are metremelwleasy .to opera-te;
These and many other objects and advantages at the invention. will become apparent to those versed in the art in the .iollow-ingdescription 'fthereof as-illustratediintha accompanying-draw- :ing,.'in which lll .is a top plan view of' a structure emz'bodying the invmtion;

the pin is norm-ed to have an upturned 1100p .m
in the nature of a tongue. From the base of this loop .fll there extends 1a; straight. .length N at the nradzerial .akmg. acme side or the center :line through'the loophorizontally therefrom, to then came around outwardly by a bend li a-m1 thence armimd and back to form the outwardly, laterally extending damp 13' :having: the legs M and: 1'15 thereof: prefieraialy spaced apart, and 511mm. the inner end of the leg I5, the material is oarried around: a bend it back. into the plane of the length it and in alignment. therewith but directed oppositely-therefrom iaya length 4-11. From the .rear-porti'onof this: length 1"] mmaterial. is twisted through :90 degrees to have the plane thereof vertically disposedin relation. to the F of the lengths M and. M. This vertically disposed; par of the; material is then bent around upwardlyand substantiallyoircularly' to form --a icon .18 mm: "the. under and portioncnf which the material is married :bya band 19' in- .8. Claims. C11 132-46) wardly and thence .iorwardly under. the loop Ill and to a distancetherebeyond by a length designated by the numerallizl.
In the same manner, a length 2| extends rear-- wardly from the lower portion of thellloop. .llllby edge contact withthe length. and insubstant'i'all'y the sameqplane therewith. From the. rear portion or the lengthhizlf the material carried through a bend 221 outwardly intoa substantially straight length 23 and thence around through a loop 24 back inwardly through a length ZEto'be finally carried around througha bend '26 into the ,rearwardly directed straight length 21 which :is in edge contact the length "IT. That is, the pin is formed; symmetrically on both sides of the longitudinal center line. Then from the .rear end of the length 21;, the material is twisted through 90 degrees to have it bent upwardly and thence around through the curved loop '28- and back down into a horizontally disposed length 29 to extend outwardly-along the length 2'0. Dne of these lengths 20 or. 29 may be corrugated to leave the other one straight, or both may be corrugated "as shown in the drawing. While the clampingportion of the 'pin extending. rearwardly from the. loop ffl' above the members 20 tween without undue pressure, the spacing being sufficient to permit easy insertion of the members 2'0 and 29 spacedapartto pass on each side of the group of hairs forming the curl as "it leaves the scalp and to havethe curl itself flattened between the upper clamping members and the top edges-of the meinbers 20 and :29. That is, the
hair is primarily clamped between the members 2D and Z'B 'betWeen the curl and the'sc-alp and then "the curl 'itselfis flattened to rest across the top edgesof the members 20 and' 29' to 'be flattened thereagainst as wellas over the-scalp bythe 'upper members including the elements il -l1 and 21 -21, inclusive.
The entrance of the =members2fi and 29*through the hair or around the hank of hair selected to storm the curl: is facilitated "by'pushing the portion tfl'trelative toward the portion '28 such aszby gripping these two members between the thumb and. forefinger, whichmactiona will spread the forendsrof the members 20' and 29 one from the other. Iii/other words; the; natural :grip- 3 will be to hold the pin by the members l8 and 28 so that the pressure thereon is readily exerted to initially position the pin.
In the form of the invention illustrated in Figs. 4-6, the pin has a central area portion 30 from which diverge forwardly the fingers 3| and 32 in substantially the same plane as that of the zone portion 30. These fingers have their outer ends curved upwardly slightly to facilitate entrance of the curl thereunder. From the rear of the zone 30, the material is bifurcated to merge into the members I8, l9, and on the one side and 28 and 29 on the other side, duplicating the like numbered elements described in the first form. Therefore, the only difference between the two forms resides in the formation of the forward upper clamping members. In any event, it is desired that this top clamping portion of the pin have a lateral effective width suflicient to extend beyond the side faces of the members 20 and 29 appreciable distances in the proportions as indicated in thedrawing.
While I have shown and described the invention in the best forms as now known to me, it is obvious'that mechanical changes may be employed without departing from the spirit of the invention, and I therefore do not .desire to be limited to those precise forms beyond the limitations which maybe imposed by the following claims.
