METHOD OF wAvING HAIR AND APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING THE SAME 3 Sheets-Sheet 3 Filed Feb. 11. 1960 INVENTOR.
WALTER F/SHER ATTORNEY United States Patent 3,144,926 METHGD (3F WAVING HAIR AND APFARATUS FQR PERI GRMING THE SAME Walter M. Fisher, Skoliie, 111., assignor to Ace Fastener Corporation, Chicago, Ill. Filed Feb. 11, 1960, Ser. No. 8,149 1 Claim. (Cl. 132-7) This invention relates to a novel method for waving hair and for apparatus for performing the same.
Before discussing the instant invention it is believed that the reader should be given some general information with respect to hair waving in general.
Permanent hair waving is preformed by two general methods which are known as the heat and the chemical method. In the older (heat) method the hair is first wetted, thence disposed about various setting devices such as hair curlers and the like so that the hair is set into the position desired, and thence dried by means of heat to permanently set the hair in place. After the hair is dried the setting devices are removed.
In the newer chemical method the hair is fixed into its position after setting by means of chemical reactions.
Generally the older (heat) method is performed by professional beauticians while the chemical method is performed at home by the woman herself.
While the instant invention is particularly applicable to the heat method of waving, it can be applied to the chemical method as well.
In conventional setting of the hair by the use of setting devices of various types it somethimes happens, when heat is used, that the curler is placed too close to the scalp by the beautician. The conduction of heat through the curler by the heating device will, in such cases, cause a burn.
In addition to the above disadvantage, setting devices are relatively expensive.
The method of the instant invention utilizes staples having crown and leg portions for setting the hair. These staples are applied either directly to the hair or are used in conjunction with a support member. Since the staples have relatively small cross-sectional area, they do not retain heat and even if placed close to the scalp will not cause burns. Furthermore, the staples are inexpensive and simple to apply and can be readily combed out of the hair after the hair is set.
In the preferred application of the method of this invention the staples used are only partially clinched when applied to the hair so as to permit simple removal of such staples by combing when the setting of the hair has been completed.
The instant invention also includes appartus for performing the method of this invention which apparatus includes a stapling machine having a base, an anvil upon the base, a staple magazine spaced from the base, staple feeding, driving and ejecting means within the magazine, and a spacing member between the magazine and the base preventing full contact between the magazine and the anvil. The spacing member, in one form of the apparatus, is also made adjustable so that the spacing between the magazine and the anvil can be controlled, thus controlling the tightness of clinch of the staple. In some modifications of the apparatus a slot is provided in the anvil and in other modifications a comb is connected to the said machine.
The invention will be further described by reference to the accompanying drawings which are made a part of this specification.
FIG. 1 is a perspective side view of a head of hair prior to application of the method of this invention.
FIG. 2 is a perspective side view of a head of hair showing a curl formed by the beautician in said hair.
the conventional FIG. 3 is a perspective side view of a head of hair showing the application of a staple across said curl to hold it in place for setting.
FIG. 4 is a detail side view upon an enlarged scale of a curl with a staple in place thereupon.
FIG. 5 is a sectional view of the structure shown in FIG. 4 taken along line 5-5 of FIG. 4.
FIG. 6 is a side view of a stapling machine applying a staple directly across a curl showing the method of attachment of the staple and a part of the machine construction.
FIG. 7 is a perspective side View of a head of hair showing a curl with a staple applied directly thereto and the first step of curling the hair about a first support (when such support is used).
FIG. 8 is a perspective side view of a head of hair similar to FIG. 7 but showing the next step in curling the hair about a first support.
FIG. 9 is a perspective side view of a head of hair similar to FIG. 8 showing a staple applied to both the first support and to the hair.
FIG. 10 is a perspective side view of a head of hair similar to FIG. 9 but showing a second support in place upon a head of hair beside the first support.
FIG. 11 is a perspective view upon an enlarged scale of a stapling machine applying a staple to the first support and to the hair below the first support showing the method of attachment.
FIG. 12 is a perspective view, upon an enlarged scale, of a pair of supports secured to the head of hair and to one another showing the method of attachment.
FIG. 13 is a plan view of one form of anvil that may be employed upon the stapling machine used in the carrying out of the method of this invention.
FIG. 14 is a plan view of an alternative that may be employed.
FIG. 15 is a plan view of still another form of anvil that may be employed.
FIG. 16 is a plan view of that may be emplayed.
FIG. 17 is a side view of a stapling machine that may be used in carrying out the method of this invention.
FIG. 18 is a sectional view through the machine shown in FIG. 17 taken along lines 18-18 of FIG. 17.
Referring now to the accompanying drawings for a description of the instant invention in detail the head of a Woman is shown at 11. The head bears hair 12. A portion of hair 12 (shown in FIGS. 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, and 10) is formed into a pin curl 13 and a staple 14 having a crown portion 15 and leg portions 16 is disposed across said curl. In this connection the reader is advised that the staple can, if desired, extend only partially across said curl for various special effects.
The legs 16 of staple 14 are bent toward one another to hold curl 13 in position and, in the modification shown, legs 16 of staple 14 are only partially bent toward one another so as to permit simple removal of the staple after the hair setting process has been completed.
FIGS. 7-12 show the use of a first support member in connection with the instant invention. FIGS. 10 and 12 show the use of a second support member in addition.
As shown in FIGS. 7-12 a portion of hair 17 is rolled upon a first support member 18. A staple 19 having legs 26 secures first support 18 to the hair 12. One leg 20 passes through support 18 and legs 20 are bent toward one another to secure support 18 to hair 12. In this connection also, the reader is advised that in the preferred modification of this invention legs 20 are only partially bent toward one another so as to easily remove the entire assembly from the hair when the hair has been set.
Referring now to FIGS. 10 and 12 a second support 21 form of anvil Patented Aug. 11, 1964' still another form of anvil is provided adjacent first support 13 and an additional portion of hair 22 is rolled upon support 21. Support 21 is likewise secured to the hair 12 by the use of staple 23 having leg portions 24 thereupon. The legs 24 of staple 23 are likewise preferably only partially bent toward one another so asto aid in. the removal of the assembly from the hair. Also, as shown in FIG. 12, an additional staple 25 may be disposed between supports 18 and 21 with the 25 (not shown) clinched toward one anthe assembly in place.
FIGS. 6, 11 and 17 show a modified stapling machine that may be used to carry out the method of this invention.
The stapling machine 26 is preferably of the plier type and has an operating handle 36, a base 27, an anvil 28 upon the base, a staple magazine 29 spaced from the base, and staple feeding, driving and ejection means (not shown) within the magazine. An adjustable spacing member 31 is provided upon base 27 and controls t e spacing between magazine 29 and anvil 28.
One form of the staple feeding, driving, and ejecting means that may be employed in this invention is illustrated in the United States Patent issued to William G. Pankonin on July 11, 1930, which is United States Patent No. 2,165,572.
The apparatus shown may also include a projecting comb 33 which may be secured to base 27 by holding members 34. Anvil 28 may also include a projecting comb 35 (FIG. 16) or may have a rearwardly extending recess 36 thereupon (FIG. 15). The forward portion of anvil 28 may also be arcuate in form as shown in FIG. 14.
The manner of carrying out the method of this invention will now be explained by illustration of the operation method will further be described as it is used in connection with the heat method of permanent waving but the reader will understand that the chemical method is performed similarly except for the manner of setting the air.
The operator first wets the hair of the woman and forms the pin curls 13. Thestapling machine of FIGS. 6, 11 and 17 is then loaded with staples. Prior to its use adjustable member 31 is positioned to give the tightness of clinch of the staple desired. This tightness will depend upon the texture of the hair upon which the instant method is to be used.
The stapling machine sired, is applied only Where a different type of curl is desired (as shown in FIGS. 712) support members are the wire mesh. However, cardboard fiber or perforated metal supports can also be employed.
In order to obtain even .greater security for the device, if the stapling machine is equipped with the type of anvil showni'n FIG. 15 ,the anvil anbe placed within one end of supports 18 and 21 in position upon the hair and an additional'staple 25 applied across supports 18 and 21 (FIG. 12). Other types of anvils may also be employed for other special effects;
Withthe' hair now in position for setting, the woman is y the entire assembly can be quickly and easily combed out or" the hair thereby accomplishing a simple and easy method of waving hair.
While the staples used in this method are the conventional wire staples, aluminum or other suitable or noncorroding material may also be employed as stape material if desired.
The foregoing specific embodiments of this invention as set forth in the specification herein are for illustrative purexample only. Various changes and modifications may obviously be made Within the spirit I claim: A method of waving hair comprising wetting said hair, curling said hair about a: first support,
