HAIRBRUSH Filed April 29, 1949 W TN E 55 5 IN VEN TOR.
Patented Apr. 13, 1954 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE HAIRBRUSH Kenneth C. Fay, New York, N. Y.
Application April 29, 1949, Serial No. 90,327
10 Claims.
This invention relates to hairbrushes and has for its principal object the provision of an improved form of hairbrush which can be utilized with a minimum of effort and which is capable of thoroughly brushing the hair and stimulating the scalp during the brushing operation.
Other objects as well as the advantages and novel features of construction of the invention will become apparent after a perusal of the fol lowing description when read in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. l is a perspective view illustrating the manner of grasping a brush, embodying the invention. Fig. 2 is a perspective side View of the brush per se; Fig. 3
is a side elevational View of the brush and the holder therefor, and Fig. 4 is an end elevational view of the parts shown in Fig. 3.
In the drawings, the numeral I designates generally the brush back which is provided with two straight sides 2, 3 and two rounded ends 4, 5.,
The back I has an overall length of approximately three inches and a width between the sides 2, 3 or approximately two and one-half inches. The length of the straight sides is about one and one-half inches and the ends 4, 5 each define an I are of a circle having a radius of approximately one and one-quarter inches. It will thus be seen that the area of the back I is such that it can readily and comfortably be held in the cupped hand of a user. The back I may be made of any suitable material, but is preferably made of a thermoplastic material, as the latter can be readily cleaned and will not become distorted by moisture or weather conditions. Provided on the upper surface of the back at right angles to the sides 2, 3 thereof, are a pair of spaced, parallelly arranged grooves 6, 'I which extend throughout the entire width of the back I. The grooves 6, l are spaced apart approximately three-quarters of an inch and are each approximately one-half an inch wide; the bottoms of such grooves being of shallow, curved contour, in section. It will thus be seen that the grooves 6, I will readily and comfortably receive the index and second fingers of the user, as is illustrated in Fig. l of the drawings. It will also be noted from Figs. 2 and 3 of the drawings, that the outer edges of grooves 6, l are substantially higher than the inner edges thereof for a purpose which will hereinafter become more clear. The outer edges of grooves 6 and I form the inner edges of a pair of outer, spaced grooves 8, 9 which extend in parallel relation to grooves 6 and I at the outer end portions of the back I. The grooves 8, 9 are as wide as grooves 6, I and also have bottoms which are of shallow, curved contour, in cross-section. Like grooves 6 and I, the outer edges of grooves 3, 9 are higher than the inner edges thereof.
It will be noted from a comparison of Figs. 2, 3 and 4 that the under surface IA of back I is convex in contour and curved in two directions from end to end, and from side to side, the radius of curvature of the surface from side to side being less than the radius of curvature of such surface from end to end. I have found that when surface 14 is so configured within certain limitations and the tufts is of bristles disposed at right angles to tangents of such surface, the tufts of bristles will, during the brushing operation, penetrate readily through the hair, be brought automatically and progressively into contact with th scalp and will permit a complete coverage of the brush duringeaph brushing stroke. In order to accomplish these purposes, I have found that the plane defines by the outer ends of the tufts of bristles should conform to the average curvature of the human Scalp nd thatsuch t t shou ex nd w ly from the concav Bidefof such plane at right angles totang gifts; of the latter. In other words,
the surface litshould be a curved surface having a radius of curvature in an end to end direction of not less thiaril% inches and having a radiu s of curvaturefin a side to side direction of not less than inch. I have found that best results are obtained if the radius of curvature of the surface 1'4 in end to end direction is about 3% 'inches and notjl'ess than 1% inches nor more than 4% inches, andif the radius of curvature of surface it in aside to side direction is about 2 inches 'antl not iess than inch nor more than 3%Qificlie's. The tufts [5 of bristles which ar all of the same length, are each disposed at right angies to 'at'angent at the place on such surface it fromjvhiclr'such tufts project, Thus, "the outer ends of the tufts it are curved in a manner similar to surface It as can be seen'froma'coifnp'arisonof Figs. Band 4. Preferably, the tufts i5 are arranged in parallel rows which extend from end to end of the brush in parallelism with sides 2 and 3 thereof, and from side to side of the brush transversely of such sides. Thebristles of which thetufts i5 are constituted maybe made of any suitable material orsynthetic fibers or "combinations thereof.
It will be understood from the foregoing, that in the use of the brush, itisheld in the users hand in the manner indicated in Fig. 1 of the drawings, with thefknob H positioned between the index and second fingers and the latter positioned in the conformable finger grooves 6, l. The third finger will bepositioned in either of grooves 8 or 9 and the thumb and little finger placed around the circular ends 4,5, of the brush. The brush therefore will be supported entirely by the fingers of the users hand and may readily be moved relative to the palm of the hand by moving the f ngers as a unit. In whichever position the brush is held by the fingers relative to the palm, a firm'gr'ip will be retained on the back thereof because of the pressure exerted by the index and. second fingers'on the grooves 6, 1 by reason of their contact with knob H, the outer edges of such grooves, the groove 8 or S and its outer edge and-the engagement of the thumb and little fingers with the rounded ends 4, 5. This grip is so secure, that the user has perfect control over the brush and may readily and surely move it in an arc in line with the users hand by means of the fingers or in an arc at right angles to such first movement by a twisting motion of the forearm or in an are produced by a combination of such motions. These motions 4 are natural and are easily performed, enabling the brush to be used readily to brush the hair in any direction from the back, front or crown of the scalp. Because of the firm grip afforded on the brush back, such brushing operation may be made as vigorously as desired without effort. By reason of the curvature of the under surface l4 and the arrangement of the tufts i5 thereon, the bristles will penetrate immediately to the scalp, giving maximum penetration, and during the brushing motions, will massage and stimulate the scalp and thoroughly brush each strand of hair. Due also to such construction of the surface 14 and the arrangement of the tufts it; thereon, every bristle tuft will contact with the scalp and hair thus assuring a thorough massaging and brushing operation on the scalp and hair of the user. As a result of such coverage and action of the instant brush, there will be provided better scalp stimulation and correct circulation, and the brush will maintain the hair in a cleaner condition.
The brush of the instant invention is compact and because it takes up little space can be carried easily in handbags or overnight kits. When not in use in the home it may be placed in a container such as shown in Figs. 3 and 4. and which comprises a hollow base le having in its upper surface, a pair of transverse slots. it through which extends an oval-shaped member 11 having a width approximately equal to the width of back i intermediate the sides 2, 3 thereof. The ovalshaped or ring member I! may be made of any suitable material, such as a thermoplastic material. Provided 0n the upper central portion of member I"! is a keyhole slot it which extends transversely of member I! and has its inner circular portion disposed midway between the sides of member l1. Thus, the back may be placed in suspended relation within member H, by moving the shank I3 of knob ll into the slot is until it is positioned in the circular portion of such slot and then permitting the top of such knob to rest on the exterior surface of member I]. When so suspended and the sides 2, 3 arranged in parallelism with the side edges of base It, the brush will be substantially entirely enclosed by member H which will protect it from dust and powder. Due to the suspended condition of the brush and the configuration of member ii, the bristles will be protected damage and will readily dry after washing.
While I have illustrated and hereinabove described a preferred embodiment of my invention, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes may be made therein without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the appended claims.
