B. L. GIVENS 2,858,834 MOISTURE RETAINING HEL FOR THE TREATMENT OF HAIR SCALP Filed Sept. 27, 1955 Nov. 4, 1958 inventor $01 L. G
vans witnes's T Maw United States Patent MOISTURE RETAINING HELMET FOR THE TREATMENT OF HAIR OR SCALP Ben L. Givens, West Des Moines, Iowa Application September 27, 1955, Serial No. 536,872
2 Claims. (Cl. 132-9) cedure is to block or wind the various strands of hair i on curlers or spools. Then the waving solution is individually applied to each of the many spools of hair by the use of a tuft of cotton dipped into the solution. Obviously this is a very messy operation and requires much time and work. Also some strands are treated prior to others, thereby resulting in time variations and uneven waving.
Therefore, one of the objects of my invention is to provide a means that will treat substantially simultaneously all the hair or scalp to be conditioned.
A further object of this invention is to provide a device for subjecting the hair or scalp to a liquid, that eliminates objectionable dripping of the solution.
A still further object of my invention is to provide a head helmet that acts first as a container of fluid and secondly as an applicator.
Still further objects of this invention are to provide a liquid dispensing head helmet that is economical in manufacture, durable in use, and refined in appearance.
These and other objects will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
My invention consists in the construction, arrangements, and combination, of the various parts of the device, whereby the objects contemplated are attained as hereinafter more fully set forth, specifically pointed out in my claims, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of my helmet in use on a head,
Fig. 2 is an enlarged inverted perspective view of the device, and
Fig. 3 is a cross sectional View of the helmet and more fully illustrates its construction.
The body 10 of my helmet should be of substantial thickness and having liquid retaining characteristics. Any suitable material may be employed for this purpose and I recommend a porous rubber product such as foam or sponge rubber. The helmet is similar to that of an inverted bowl and of course is of sufiicient size to embrace the hair and scalp area of the user, as shown in Fig. l. The numeral 11 designates a rubber or like impervious skin on the outer side of the portion 10. For compactness and room for the ears of the user, the marginal edge portion of the part 10 is tapered downwardly and inwardly as shown in Fig. 3. The skin 11 also embraces the marginal edge portion of the part 10 and then is folded inwardly and upwardly to the inside of the part 10 to provide a headband 12. In order that the helmet will fit snugly around the head at its marginal edge, it should have a drawstring or like for this purpose.
2,858,834 Patented Nov. 4, 1958 H In the drawings I show a resilient flexible rubber ring or strand 13 which is positioned in the bend line of the skin 11 and band portion 12. By this construction the member 13 is located on the peripheral edge of the helmet as shown in Fig. 3.
To use my device it may be first inverted, as shown in Fig. 2, and the liquid or solution poured therein. The porous characteristic of the part 10 will absorb and retain such liquid and the helmet is then turned over and placed onto the head, as shown in Fig. 1. To release the liquid from the porous part 10, the outside of the helmet is squeezed or compressed manually by the hands thereby causing the liquid to exit from the part 10 and onto the hair or scalp of the user to be treated. Obviously this latter operation is rapid and the entire scalp or hair will be treated substantially simultaneously. This rapid treating of the hair is especially desirable in the applying of solutions during permanent waving procedures. By the use of my device there are no undesirable drippings of the liquid from treating the scalp or hair. When the device is placed on the head all of the liquid will be successfully held and retained in the pores or cells of the part 10. The band 12 and member 13 will insure no leaking of the liquid onto the face and neck of the user when the helmet is manually pressed to disgorge the liquid into the hair or onto the scalp.
My helmet may be successfully used not only for permanent waving purposes but also for hair treatment and for hair coloring. It may be also used for applying liquid and/or conditioning medications to the scalp. By releasing manual pressures on the outside of the hehnet it will suck up any surplus liquids at which time the helmet may then be removed from the head. The skin 11 seals the outer side of the helmet so that when it is compressed fluid can only pass inwardly and downwardly onto the head.
Some changes may be made in the construction and arrangement of my moisture retaining helmet for the treatment of hair or scalp without departing from the real spirit and purpose of my invention, and it is my intention to cover by my claims, any modified forms of structure or use of mechanical equivalents which may be reasonably included within their scope.
I claim:
1. In a device of the class described, a helmet of sponge rubber adapted to hold a liquid, an impervious skin on the outer side of said sponge rubber and extending into a headband on the inner side of the helmet, and a flexible resilient ring inside the said skin where it is extended upwardly into a headband.
2. In an applicator for introducing a liquid to the head, a helmet of relatively thick foam sponge rubber adapted to receive and normally hold a volume of liquid; said helmet being resilient and adapted to release a liquid to the head of a user when it is manually compressed, an impervious thin rubber skin covering the complete outer side of said helmet, and a flexible resilient continuous stand on the marginal edge of said helmet for tightening the marginal edge of said helmet around the head of the user.
