DEVICE FOR EXPOSlNG HAlR TO THE ACTION OF HEATED VAPORS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 278,129, dated May 2, 1883.
Application filed February 18, 1882. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, DORA G. GRIFFIN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Grand Rapids, in the county of Kent and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful Device for Exposing Hairto the Action of Heated Vapors Under Pressure, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in apparatus used in processes designed to cause hair to retain any desired form.
My invention consists in providing means for subjecting the hair to the action of vapors from certain suitable materials witho'utallowing said hair to come in contact with either the solid or non-volatile portions of said materials or with the vessel containing the same, as illustrated in the accompanying drawing, which represents a vertical section of my device.
A is a strong metal cylinder closed at the bottom, in the lower part of which is placed a sufficient quantity of water containing some substance the vapor from which will produce the desired effect upon the hair and to the bottom of which heat is applied in any convenient manner. Said cylinder is provided with a cover, B, secured by cap-screws O, and made steam-tight by packing D. Said cylinder is also provided with a glass water-gage, F, to indicate the amount of liquid in said cylinder; also, with a safety-valve, E, to regulate the pressure within said cylinder. Within the cylinder A is placed a removable hoop, H, which rests upon the brackets G. Said hoop is provided with cords I to support the hair, and a curtain or apron, J, of cloth or other suitable material to keep the hair from coming in con tact with the sides of the vessel A. The safetyvalve E is placed low down in the steam-space, so that it may be used as an air-cock when steam is first raised in the vessel A. Said valve consists of a bent tube, a, on the top of which rests a cap, I), provided with a rubber packing, c, and a short tube, d, in which are holes for the escape of steam, as shown, and to which may be attached weights 0 to determine the pressure necessary to open said valve.
the cover B, screws 0, packing D, gage F,
safety-valve E, hoop H, cords L'brackets G, and curtain J.
