Description

R. J. DAVIS HAIR CURLER Filed Dec. 20. 1956 Aug; 1,2, '1958 y INVENTOR. Bynum 77. AJM# llnited States Patent 01 HAIR CURLER Robert 1. Davis, Houston, Tex.
Application December 20, '1956, Serial No. 629,708
6 lClaims. (Cl. 132-42) The present invention relates to a hair curler and one particularly suited for giving cold wave permanents although other uses will suggest themselves to those skilled in the art.
It is an object of this invention to provide an improved hair curler which may easily and readily be secured to hair and produces rm molded waves with curly ends.
A further object of this invention is the provision of an improved hair curler which may easily and readily be secured to hair and which includes means so that fluid may be injected into the body of the curler and substantially uniformly wets the hair wound about the curler.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of a hair curler which includes a generally tubular body tapering downwardly which includes a helical or spiral guide for winding the hair around and along the length of the body, and which includes a plurality of ports or openings in the body so that lluid inserted in the body ows through the ports or openings onto the strand of hair wound about the curler.
Yet a further object of this invention is the provision of such a curler which may be manufactured inexpensively and which is simple and easy to use.
Other and further objects, features and advantages will be apparent from the following description of presentlypreferred embodiments of the invention, given for the purpose of disclosure, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, where like character references designate like parts throughout the several views, and where Figure 1 is a diagrammatic representation of a hair curler according to the invention in use,
Figure 2 is an enlarged view, in side elevation, illustrating a hair curler according to the invention,
Figure 3 is an enlarged sectional elevation of a hair curler similar to that illustrated in Figure 2, but illustrating a modification, and
Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line l4 of Figure 2.
Referring now to the drawing, and particularly to Figure 2, the reference numeral denotes the hair curler which includes the tubular body 12 tapering downwardly from the upper end 14 to the lower end 16. The
f upper end 14 has the opening 18 into which uid is injected and the lower end 16 is closed by the closure member 20 to prevent lluid from ilowing out the bottom of the curler.
A guide in the form of a coarse helical thread or spiral 22 extends outwardly from the body 12 and extends from the top to a point just above the lower end 16 of the body 12. The spiral or helical guide 22 serves as a guide for winding strands of hair spirally along the length of the body 12 and the reduced diameter portion of the lower end 16 permits the hair ends to be wound about the curler 10 to form curly ends.
The body 'l2 is provided with a plurality of openings or ports, such as the `slots 24, so that uid injected into the body l2 flows substantially uniformly through the body 12 and substantially uniformly wets the strand of hair spiraled thereabout.
A clamp member 26 is provided to assist in holding the strand of hair about the curler by slipping the strand of hair between the clamp member 26 and the body 12 of the curler 10.
The curler 10 may be made of any suitable material and, preferably, ,should be made of a material not vsubject to the action of the iluids used in curling the hair, for example, cold wave fluids. An economical and simple way of manufacturing the curler 10 is to form it from any of the suitable plastics on the market.
In use, a strand of hair is wetted with waving vlotion and is spiraled about the body 12 of the curler .10, under the clamp member 26, Adown along the length of the body 12 with the ends of the strand of hair being wound about the lower end portion 16. After a desired length of time to permit the waving lotion to perform its function, a suitable neutralizer is inserted in the opening 1S and this ows out the slots 24 disposed along the length of the body 12 thereby wetting substantially uniformly the entire strand of hair stopping the action of the waving lotion. The curler l@ is then removed from the strand of hair. Of course, a number of the curlers are similarly applied and they hang generally vertically from the head 28 of the person 30 having her hair curled until removed as previously described.
The curlers 10 produce rm molded waves with curly ends, as mentioned previously. The spiral winding of the strands of hair and substantially uniformly wetting lthe hair with the neutralizer gives more strength to the wave without appearing unnatural, kinky or articial.
A modication is illustrated in Figure 3 in which an elastic member 26a is substituted for the clamp member 26. Referring now to this figure, where parts corresponding to those in Figures 2 and 4 have the letter a added for convenience or reference, the plug member 29 is secured to the elastic member 26a and ts in the opening 18a and a slot 31a is cut in the end 18a and a slot 31a is cut in the end 16a so that the elastic member 26a encircles the hair strand wound about the curler 10a and holds it securely in place. If desired, the slots 33 may be provided in the spiral member 22a so that the lower portion of the elastic member 26a ts snugly against the hair ends curled about the lower end portion 16a. An opening 27 is provided in the plug 29 to permit introduction of fluid into the body 12a of the curler 10a.
The remaining parts and use are the same as described in connection with Figures 2 and 4 except that after the hair strand is wound about the curler, neutralizer is introduced into opening 27 and the band or elastic member 26a encircles the strand of hair.
The present invention, therefore, is well suited to carry out the objects and has the features and advantages mentioned as well as others inherent therein.
Numerous changes in details and arrangement of parts may be made which are within the spirit of the invention as defined by the scope of the appended claims.
What is claimed is:
l. A hair curler comprising an elongated generally tubular-shaped body provided with an internal passage closed at one end and open adjacent its other end, and a hair guide spiraling about the body from a point adjacent said other end to a point spaced from said one end, said body provided with a plurality of openings disposed along the length of the hair guide and the one end whereby uid introduced into said passage flows through said openings and wets hair spiraled about the body in the hair guide and curled about said one end.
2. A hair curler comprising an elongated generally tubular-shaped body provided with an internal passage closed at its lower end and open adjacent its upper end,
said body tapering downwardly and inwardly, and a hair y guide spiraling about the body from `a point adjacent the upper end to a point spaced above the lower end, said body provided with openings disposed about the length of the hair guide and said lower end whereby 'fluid introduced into said passages ows through said openings and wets hair spiraled about the body in the hair guide and curled about said lower end.
3. Ahair curler comprising an elongated generally tubular shaped body provided with an internal passage closed at its lower end and open adjacent its upper end, said body tapering downwardly and inwardly, a hair guide spiraling about the body from a point adjacent the upper end to a point spaced above the lower end, said body provided with openings disposed about the length of the hair guide and said bottom end whereby fluid introduced into said passage flows through said openings and wets hair spiraled about the body along the hair guide and curled about said lower end, and a clamp connected to the body for securing the hair to the body.
4. The hair curler of claim 3 where the :clamp includes a clamp member extending from the upper end of the body and having a portion extending adjacent the body `between elements of the hair guide whereby the hair is clamped therebetween.
5. The hair curler of claim 3 where the clamp includes a resilient band encircling the body lengthwise and includes means for securing the resilient band to the body.
6. The hair curler of claim 3 where the body and hair guide are integral and formed of a plastic material.
