Application September 9, 1949, Serial 180,114,845,
This invention relates to a fountain curl comb especially, but not exclusively, for professional use in wetting curls which dry while the curls of a head of hair are being set after a shampoo, the; primary object of the invention being gfto provide a fountain comb of this character which holds sufficient water for settinga headfof, hair without resortto dipping the comb in waterdiiring the operation, thereby saving substantiallythe time and energy of the operator and also of the customer.
Another important object of the invention is the provision of a comb of the above-indicated character which, involves a compressible bulb which serves not only as the meansfor taking up water and as the reservoir therefor, but also as means for discharging water to the teeth of the comb when and as desired. j A further important object of p the invention is to provide a comb of the above-indicatedcharacter which is of simple and serviceable construction and is designed for easy sterilization and can be easily taken apart for cleaning and longitudinal section taken on the line 33 of Figure 1;
Figure 4 is a transverse vertical section taken on the line 4-4 of Figure 3.
Referring in detail to the drawings, wherein like numerals designate like parts throughout the several views, the illustrated device comprises a comb body 5 including a longitudinally-tapered handle portion 6 terminating at its rearward end in a point 1. The comb 5 includes thebody 8 of normal vertically-elongated cross-section having depending from its lower side the conventionally-formed, longitudinally-spaced comb teeth 9. In general, the comb 5 is similar to and not larger in bulb, thickness or width than 2 Claims. (01151241 3) curl-setting combs now in use and which require dipping in water to supply the required moisture to the curl being worked upon.
l2-zof the comb tee th In't he illustrated devicethe chamber!!! "extends the length of the row of teeth 9 and opens through the opposite sides ofthe body 8; Secured conformably in the chamber ID in any suitable manner is a rubber,-
flexible plastic or other resilient material "compressible bulb .or reservoir'M of a cross-section, such as .rectangular, as'shown in Figure 4, such thatsubstantial portions of .the bulb or reservoir project on opposite sidesof thel comb body;
The forward'end and the middle of the bottom of the reservoir I4 have ports [5 and i6, respectively, in communication with short ducts I1 and i8, respectively, which open into the water-distributing passage I9. formed in the comb body portion 8 between the chamber l0 and the upper ends 12, of the comb teeth 9, with its forward end opening through the forward end of the comb body, ,as indicated at 20, and with its rear end closed, as indicated at 21, at a point slightly to therear of the port l6. An easily-removable closure plug 22 is in- .serted in the forward end of the passage [9 and cent teeth only along the forward part of the comb.
The reservoir or bulb I4 is filled with water simply by immersing the comb in water with the bulb or reservoir compressed by the fingers and relaxing the compression so as to permit the resultant expansion of the reservoir to draw water. through the ducts'23, the passage l9 and the.
ducts l1 and [8 into the reservoir. The size and capacity of the reservoir are worked out so that one complete filling of the reservoir in the manner described will store therein enough water for setting an average head of hair.
Water for'wetting curls during a setting operation is supplied to the comb teeth 9 as and when wanted simply by squeezing the sides of the reservoir M which project beyond the sides of the comb body, thereby expelling water through the ducts I! and I8 into the passage l9 and discharging the water through the ducts 23 into the adjacent comb teeth.
The passage I9 is.
The exposed sides of the bulb or reservoir l4 may be reinforced with strips 24 of suitable material secured to the outside thereof.
What is claimed is:
1. A fountain curl comb comprising a comb body having a lower edge, longitudinally spaced comb teeth depending from said lower edge, vertical ducts extending in said body and opening through said lowerledge in spaces'betweenad jacent comb teeth, a'longitudinal water-distributing passage formed in said body with which the upper ends of said ducts communicate, a
longitudinal chamber formed in saidtoothed:
body above said passage and opening through opposite sides of said body, a longitudinally-clonegated water reservoir mounted in said chamber, said reservoir being in the form of a compressible bulb of a cross-section to project beyond opposite sides of said body when in normal ex'- panded condition, and duct means leading from said bulb into said water-distributing passage, said passage having an open end opening through an-endl-of said body, and a removable. plug inserted" in and closing the open endofsaid passage. v
2.:'A- fountain comb comprising a comb body, a'iplura-lity of transversely-disposed?comb teeth a rrangedain spaced relation longitudinally along saidtcom-b body and dependingly supported from the latter, said body beingprovidedwith 'a pas- .the liquidfrom said bulb into said passage and thence'out of said ducts, and a closure plug closingth'e open end of said opening.
