March 1952 D. n. LOEWENSTEIN Q ,5
HAIR CURLER Filed Sept. 14, 1949 A Home Patented Mar. 18, 1952 9 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE HAIR CURLER Delia D. Loewenstein, Kearney, Nebr. Application September 14, 1949, Serial No. 1155.790
3 Claims. (01. 1324-40) The present invention relates to hair curlers and more partciularly to devices for winding'the hair into curls and holding the curls while the hair sets.
Oneof the objects of the present invention is to provide a simple, efiicient and inexpensive device for curling hair.
Another objective is to provide a hair curler in which the curl may be wound in either direction from the scalp toward the ends of the hair.
Another objective is to provide a hair curler with which curls may be formed close to the scalp.
Another objective is to provide a hair curler which will hold the hair in curled position during setting without crimping.
A further objective is to provide a hair curler which will wind curls without pulling or binding.
These and other objects and advantages reside in novel features of construction, arrangement and combination of parts as will hereinafter be more fully set forth and pointed out in the following specification and claims.
Referring to the drawing:
Figure l is a plan view of my improved hair curler with parts broken away.
Figure 2 is a side elevation of my hair curler.
Figure 3 is a section taken on line 3-3 of Figure 1.
Figure 4 is a perspective view of my hair curler showing how a curl is wound thereon.
Figure 5 is an exploded view of my hair curler.
In the embodiment illustrated in the drawing, my hair curler consists of a thin, flat, circular body portion I having a cylindrical central column or stud I I. The body portion In is provided with a large notch I3 which extends inward from the periphery. This notch I3 preferably has a wide mouth to facilitate the insertion of a strand of hair. The body portion I0 is preferably solid so that any hair curling or waving solution is kept from touching the scalp. As shown in Figure 3, the body portion I0 is slightly cupped about the column or stud II and is preferably provided with an upturned edge or rim I4.
A sleeve I is rotatably mounted on the column or stud I I and has an outwardly and downwardly cupped disc I6 at its lower end. This disc I6 fits within the rim I4 of the body portion I0 and is provided with perforations I1 and a notch I8 extending inwardly from its periphery. The notch I8 has a relatively narrow mouth and the side walls of the notch slope sharply away from the mouth so that there is a little or no tendency for the hair to slip out of the notch I 8 as the curl is being wound. It will be seen from Figure 3 that becauseof the concavity of thefacing surfaces of the body portion I0 and disc I6, there is a space between the body portion and disc which diminishes from the column or stud II outward toward the edge of the disc'I6.
The sleeve I5 has an-enlarged central bore I9 which terminates at a shoulder 20; A cap 2I extends over the end of the column or stud I I, within the bore I9 and is firmly secured on the top of the column or stud I I preferably by means of a suitable adhesive. A coil spring 22 acts between the cap 2| and shoulder 20 to urge the sleeve I5 and disc I6 toward the body portion Ill. The end of the sleeve I5 remote from the disc I6 is provided with a flange 23 so that it may conveniently be turned or adjusted.
In forming a curl with my improved hair curler, the sleeve I5 and disc I6 are adjusted until the notches I3 and I8 are in alignment as shown in Figures 1 and 2. A strand of hair to be curled is drawn through the notches I3 and I8 and the sleeve I5 and disc I6 are rotated relative to the body portion In and column II to wind the strand of hair about the column. The sleeve I5 and disc I6 may be turned in either direction to provide either right-hand or lefthand curls. When the curl is wound, the sleeve I5 is released and the spring 22 causes the curl to be gripped between the body portion II] and disc I6 without crimping and thus holds the curl against unwinding. By continuing to rotate the sleeve I5 and disc I6 until the ends of the hair disappear through the notch I8, all of the hair is wound on the column or stud II and the hair is curled outward to its ends.
Because the body portion In is thin, the curl may be wound very close to the scalp and is wound from the scalp outward rather than from the ends inward as is the case in most present day curlers. Very often the hair being curled is wet either with water or some curling or waving solution and the perforations I1 permit and facilitate rapid drying.
My improved hair curler may be made of any suitable material such as metal, wood or plastic but I prefer to form'the curler of plastic which is light, strong and impervious to the usual hair waving solutions. Such light curlers will not pull the hair while the curl is setting.
From the foregoing, it will be apparent that I am able to attain the objects of my invention and provide a simple, effective hair curler capable of forming curls close to the scalp, holding the hair in curled condition without crimping and permitting the curled hair to dry and set in curled condition. The foregoing specification and the drawing describe and illustrate one form of my hair curler and various modifications and changes may be made in my improved hair curler without departing from the spirit of my invention or the scope of the appended claims.
I claim:
1. A hair curler comprising a member having a concave surface. and having a notch extending inward from its periphery, a column fixed to said member and projecting from said concave surface, a sleeve rotatably mounted on said column,
a disc secured to said'sleeve adjacent said mem her, said disc having a concave surface facing said member and having a notch extending inward from its periphery, said sleeve. having an enlarged internal bore surrounding said column, a projection on the end ofsaid column remote from,
said member, and a coil, spring surrounding said column within said bore and engaging said projectionand' said sleeve for urging said disc toward said member.
2. A, hair curler comprising, a pair of disclike members having opposed facing surfaces and each having a hair receiving notch extending inwardly from its peripheral edge; a column fixed to one of said discrlikemembers; a. sleeve fixed to the other of said disclike members, said sleeve having an internal bore, a portion of which is adapted to slidably and rotatably fit over said column; a stop on the outer end of said column; and spring means coiled around said'column between said stop and a portion of said bore for yieldingly urging said opposed surfaces together.
3. A hair curler as defined in claim 2 in which the facing surfaces of said member and said disc are concave.
