TAPERING CLIP FOR HAIR. CLIPPERS Filed Jan. 21, 1948 INVENTOR.
Patented May 17, 1949 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE TAPERING CLIP FOR HAIR CLIPPERS Roy Whitney, Decatur, Ill.
Application January 21, 1948, Serial No. 3,454
4 Claims.
My invention relates to hair clippers, and more especially to means for facilitating a smooth graceful comfortable and efficient manipulation of a hair clipper, especially when used on or about the neck.
A further purpose of my invention is to provide a tapering clip for hair clippers that is simple, easy to apply and comparatively economical to make.
A further purpose of my invention is to provide a tapering clip for hair clippers wherein the tapering clip, being operatively mounted in its working position, provides all the efficient service of the well known detachable guards, and I do not take anything away from any clipper blade, but
instead my tapering clip effectively becomes a part of any clipper blade, permitting the teeth to perform their own unmolested function and also to provide a smooth gliding taper from the closest cutting clipper blade up to a No. 1, 2 or 3 taper on hair.
A particular purpose of my invention is to provide a tapering clip for hair clippers which may be of sheet material, either metal or plastic or the like; and to provide a tapering clip wherein the finished product will resiliently grip about a hair clipper base and hook over the front clipper blade guards, thus to firmly hold the tapering clip in place to permit its glider shoe to be most effective in the smooth and skillful use of the hair clippers.
I achieve the purposes of my tapering clip by my invention described in this specification, defined in the claims, and shown in the drawings wherein:
Fig. 1 is a perspective of the inside of my tapering clip, per se.
Fig. 2 is a perspective of the outside of my tapering clip, per se.
Fig. 3 is a perspective of the tapering clip resiliently and firmly fitted in place on a hair clipper.
Fig. 4 is a top view of my tapering clip.
Fig. 5 is a, face view of the same.
Fig. 6 is an end view of the same.
I shall now more completely disclose the outstanding features of my tapering clip as I make more detailed and comprehensive analysis thereof in references to the drawings.
I am aware that other attempts have been made to fill the need of means for more effectively and efiiciently improving the skillful touch in the use of a barbers hair clipper to secure a more attractive taperline or feather-edge finish on the hair cut; but with my invention I achieve this end most easily, conveniently and economically 2 by a novel tapering clip that may be detachably, resiliently and firmly clamped onto a, hair clipper 5 as shown, to thus function in a most successful manner, and wherein:
A pair of forward parallel, spaced resilient hooks I and 2 formed as an integral part of body 3 of some suitable sheet material are adapted to hook over the front clipper blade guards 4 of a hair clipper 5.
When fitting my tapering clip in place however, the nose of these front guards 4 of a hair clipper 5, is inserted into the concave rear end 6 of body 3 and between side clamping flanges I and 8 thereof and is slidably moved forward in their position until guards 4 are firmly griped by hooks l and 2 in which flanges I and 8 will firmly clamp sides 9 and Ill of cliper 5.
Note that flanges I and 8 are resiliently disposed where they will quickly grip these sides 9 and I0 of clipper 5 to hold my tapering clip firmly in operative position, as is shown in Fig. 3.
It will be seen from this design and construction of my tapering clip, that an outstanding feature of detailed assembly of this invention is found in its combination of the curved central gliding shoe ll, thus to provide an easy smooth and very effective tapering support for the hair clipper 5 when the barber is attempting to secure an attractive feather-edge on a hair cut; and this is true, especially when it is considered that hook members I and 2 are each also curved to define an effective gliding surface to contact the skin along with central gliding shoe terminals l2 and l 3 engaging front guards 4 which protect the hair clipper blade l4 (not shown).
Having described my tapering clip, what I claim is:
1. A tapering clip for hair clippers comprising a body of sheet material, a pair of parallel spaced hook members integral therewith and extending each from the same end of said member; said body member shaped to define on its sides opposed integral flanking flanges and the forward portion of said body bent back upon its self to function as a tapering clip for a hair clipper; whereby said hook members may be slidably hooked over the forward end of the clipper and whereby said side flanges will resiliently clamp against the adjacent side of said hair clipper to hold the tapering clip in operative position there- 2. As a new article of manufacture a tapering clip for hair clippers made from one piece of sheet material and shaped to define a pair of spaced opposed side clamping flanges and a cen- 3 tral sheet material body, the rear portion of which extends from one of said flanges to the other, and the forward portion of which is bent back upon said rear portion in a shape defining a glider base formed in a graceful curve when said tapering clip may be removably and slidably attached to the bottom of a hair clipper by slidably inserting said hair clipper base into the rear portion of said tapering clip in a manner permitting said flanges to slidably contact the side of said hair clipper base and moving said hair clipper base forward thereon until the forward end of the blade guard of said clipper snugly and firmly fits into said hook members, to thus operatively attach said tapering clip to said hair clipper base.
3. In combination with a hair clipper having forward sickle blade guards and a base plate therefor, a tapering clip comprising a pair of spaced parallel forward integral hook members for slidably engaging said blade guards, at central plate covering a substantial portion of the base of said hair clipper and shaped at its forward portion to fold back over its rear portion in a graceful curve to provide for the tapering clip a b1ed with a hair clipper, it provides not only the efl'icient smooth operation intended therefor, and
' also by means of the use of such glider base plate No references cited.
