HAIRBRUSH Filed May 24, 1961 ooooo OOO'OO 2:22: 2:222
Buddy R McC/a/he 1N VEN TOR BY 2mm Patented June 19, 1962 3,039,131 HAIRBRUSH Buddy R. McClaine, 721 15th St. N., Wisconsin Rapids, Wis. Filed May 24, 1961, Ser. No. 112,358 4 Claims. (Cl. 15507) This invention relates to new and useful improvements in hairbrushes and has for its primary object to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a device of this character which is particularly useful for training and grooming the hair in such styles as flat top, crewcut, Butch and other short haircuts.
Another important object of the present invention is to provide a brush of the aforementioned character which is adapted to massage the scalp without injuring the tissue, said brush comprising, toward this end, a multiplicity of soft, flexible, rather blunt or rounded bristles.
Another very important object of the invention is to provide a brush of the character described comprising novel means for conveniently and neatly applying stick or tube-type pomade or other dressing to the hair, the construction and arrangement being such that the pomade will be kept away from the scalp and applied uniformly to the hair shaft only.
Further objects of the present invention are to provide a hairbrush and scalp massager of the character set forth which may be conveniently and safely carried on the person ready for use at all times, which may be easily and thoroughly cleaned and which may be quickly dried.
Other objects of the invention are to provide a hairbrush of the above described character which will be comparatively simple in construction, strong, durable, compact, sanitary, of light weight, attractive in appearance and which may be manufactured at low cost.
These together with other objects and advantages which will become subsequently apparent reside in the details of construction and operation as more fully hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout, and in which:
FIGURE 1 is a perspective view, showing a hairbrush embodying the invention enclosed in a clear plastic cover, a corner portion of said cover being broken away in section;
FIGURE 2 is a bottom plan view of the device with a portion broken away in horizontal section;
FIGURE 3 is a vertical sectional view, taken substantially on the line 33 of FIGURE 2; and
FIGURE 4 is a vertical sectional view taken substantially on the line 44 of FIGURE 3.
Referring now to the drawing in detail, it will be seen that the embodiment of the invention which has been illustrated comprises a generally flat, rectangular base or back 13 of suitable dimensions and material, preferably a resilient plastic. Mounted on top of the back 13 with its end portions 14 secured thereto is a flexible, resilient finger strap or handle 15. Formed integrally with the underside of the base 13 are spaced groups of depending teeth or bristles 16 which are essentially similar to the bristles 11.
Extending into the base or back 13 from one of the longitudinal sides thereof to a point adjacent its other longitudinal edge is an elongated chamber 17. The elongated chamber 17 is adapted to slidably receive a stick 18 of pomade, wax or other dressing for application to the hair. Toward this end, the bottom of the chamber 17 is provided with large, elongated openings 19 (see FIGURE 2) which expose the stick 18.
The longitudinal side of the base or back 13 through which the elongated chamber 17 enters has formed integrally therewith a generally rectangular tube or the like 20 through which said chamber 17 passes. The tube 20 defines an elongated passage at right angles to the chamber 17 and communicating therewith for the reception of a removable plastic strip or bar 21 which closes the open end of said chamber 17 for retaining the stick 18 therein.
It will be noted that the pomade or wax stick 18 is mounted and exposed between the two spaced groups of bristles 16. In use, the teeth 16 easily pick up the short, stubborn hair and as the brush is manipulated said teeth separate said hair as it is brushed lightly across the exposed stick 18. Thus, a fine, uniform film of pomade or other dressing is applied to the hair shaft but not to the follicle or the scalp. Furthermore, this is accomplished in a neat, convenient manner and without waste. This renders the device particularly useful for children, especially those who may he too young to apply liquid wax, etc., by hand. In FIGURE 1 of the drawing, reference numeral 22 designates a fitted cover for the device, also of clear plastic.
The foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention as claimed.
What is claimed as new is as follows:
1. A hairbrush comprising a generally flat, rectangular back having an elognated chamber extending laterally thereinto from one side thereof and open at one end for receiving a stick-type hair dressing, said back further having openings in its underside communicating with the chamber for exposing the dressing, said back still further having an elongated passage therein intersecting the chamber at the open end thereof, spaced groups of bristles integral with said underside of said back on opposite sides of the chamber, and a removable closure for the chamber slidably mounted in the passage for retaining the dressing in said chamber.
2. A hairbrush comprising a back having an elongated chamber extending thereinto from one side thereof for receiving a stick-type hairdressing, said back having openings in its underside communicating with the chamber for exposing the dressing, spaced groups of bristles integral with said underside of said back on opposite sides of the chamber, and means for retaining the dressing in the chamber, said means including a strip slidably insertable in the back across one end portion of the chamber.
3. A hairbrush comprising a casing having a generally flat, resilient back with an elongated chamber extending thereinto from one side thereof for receiving a stick-type dressing, the underside of said back having openings therein communicating with the chamber and exposing the dressing, a tube, open at one end and integral with References Cited in the file of this patent UNITED STATES PATENTS Bailey Nov. 22, 1921 Perrichon J an. 22, 1935 Arms Aug. 23, 1938 Gottfried Aug. 28, 1956 Rosholt May 19, 1959 Greenblatt Nov. 8, 1960
