HOLDER FOR HAIRPINS Filed Jan. 16, 1948 w k/z Patented Jan. 24, 1950 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE HOLDER FOR HAIRPINS Chauncey L. Rowley, Portland, Oreg.
Application January 16, 1948, Serial No. 2,619
2 Claims. 1
This invention relates generally to hair pin holders and particularly to the use of magnetism therefor.
The main object is to produce a holder for hair pins which will hold the pins in convenient positions for the easy removal thereof.
The second object is to so construct the device that it can be constructed at a low cost from materials which are easily available and which require no unusual skill in the production or assembly thereof.
I accomplish these and other objects in the manner set forth in the following specification, as illustrated in the accompanying drawing in which:
Fig. 1 is a plan of one form of the device.
Fig. 2 is a section taken along the line 2-2 in Fig. 1.
Fi 3 is a plan of a modified form of the device with the ball indicated as a dotted line.
Fig. 4 is a side elevation of the form shown in Fig. 3.
Fig. 5 is a view of the spherical pin holder used in either form of the device.
Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the magnet.
Like numbers of reference refer to the same or similar parts throughout the several views.
Referring in detail to the drawing there is shown in Figs. 1 and 2 a base it and a cap I I mounted on said base, both of plastic material or other material which cannot be magnetized, such as wood or non-ferrous metals, glass or paper.
Imbedded in the base I is a permanent bar magnet l2 which is about the thickness of the base I0.
Partially imbedded in the cap II are the balls l3 of soft steel which can conduct the lines of force and will be magnetized thereby. The balls 13 may or may not be attached to the magnet l2 by other means, but the magnetic force is sufiicient for the purpose.
Ferrous hair pins [4 will be held against the spherical magnetized balls l3 and since the pins are straight they can always be picked up easily whereas if a flat magnet is employed it is quite difiicult to separate the pin therefrom.
In the form of the device shown in Figs. 3 and 4 there is employed a base I upon which stands a tubular pedestal I6 upon the upper end of which is disposed a table IT. The tube I6 extends from the bottom of the base l5 to the top 2 of the table I! and is open throughout its length. The table I! may be made more rigid by adding the lower elements l8 and I9 through which the tube l6 also passes. The parts thus far described,
namely, I5 to Hi are preferably made of plastic or other material which can not be magnetized. Within the tube It is placed the magnet 12 and upon th upper end of the tube 16 in the middle of the table I! is a ball I3 to which the magnet I2 is drawn by its own magnetic force.
In this form of the device the operation is identical with that in the form first described except that the multiple ball form tends to hold the pins l4 more in parallelism than when a single ball I3 is used.
It is a well known fact that magnets have long been used to pick up small ferrous objects and that hair dressers and barbers use magnets for withdrawing .pins from the hair.
I therefore do not claim such devices broadly but I do intend to cover all such forms as fall fairly within the appended claims.
I claim:
1. A holder for hair pins consisting of a table and supporting pedestal of non-magnetic material, a permanent magnet within said pedestal and a. steel ball on said pedestal within the field of said magnet.
2. A holder for hair pins consisting of a vertical tubular pedestal having a base at the lower end and a table at upper end, said pedestal being open at the upper end, all of non-magnetic material, a permanent magnet disposed within said pedestal and a steel ball seated on the upper end of said pedestal within the field of said magnet.
