Definitions

  • This invention relates to hair curling and more particularly provides novel hair curlers and novel means for utilizing a directed air flow in the winding of hair tresses and for thereby forming, and for retaining, the tresses in controlled coiled form suitable for imparting thereto a permanent wave or a temporary set as may be desired.
  • Hair curling as practiced in the past has involved the fundamental operations of Winding the hair tress about acore or rod or even a finger to place the hair in curled form, and fastening the so-coiled tress to maintain the coiled form until the desired wave or curl retention is imparted.
  • the hair while so wound is subjected to the action of chemicals which require for effective action that the hair be under substantial strain, induced by a tight wind and clamping of the tress.
  • the coil may be looser, but the tress must be held in the coiled form until the hair takes the temporary set.
  • the tress when wound may be removed from the core or rod, provided it is securely fastened against unwinding, as in the familiar practice of finger waving," by winding the tress about a finger, slipping the coil from the finger and fastening it in coiled form by means of a bobby pin.
  • a hair tress may be sucked into a curler having the form of a suitably air-permeable receptacle by a stream of air constrained to move in a path generally axially through the receptacle, the tress being packed in the curler by the pressure of the air.
  • This procedure has great advantages over manual winding procedures, not only because it eliminates the laborious task of rod winding tresses, but also because it makes possible the elimination of the tress-separation or blocking operation which normally precedes winding or, in some cases, setting.
  • the tress tends to form in haphazard convolutions which 3,213,860 Patented Oct. 26, 1965 are not concentric to any single axis and which are not of regular or controlled size and shape, and while such random coiling may be satisfactory for waving, it is generally undesirable for hair styling.
  • skillful manipulation during the operation it is possible to form the tress into a succession of spiral coils, concentric to the curler axis and progressing longitudinally thereof, as in spiral coiling on a rod. This arrangement is more desirable, since it produces symmetrical coils of size and shape which are controlled by the shape and dimensions of the curler.
  • a major object of the present invention is to provide improved curlers and means for utilizing an air current in tress coiling, by which the tress is automatically coiled in coils of desired size and shape in one direction about a single axis, and is retained in coil form for waving or setting.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide means for more eflectively utilizing a directed air stream for coiling hair in an air-permeable curling receptacle.
  • Still another object of the invention is to provide a novel hair curler for such utilization which makes it possible to produce a wide variety of curls, including curls of the type produced by the spiral wrap as well as the croquinole wrap, with a minimum of difiiculty and at a high rate of speed by positive, automatic winding procedures.
  • the present invention involves a hair curling device having, in combination with a perforate curler element and a source of suction to draw a stream of air therethrough, means arranged to direct the hair tress in an air stream about the axis of the curler element in order that a hair tress may automatically be wound about such axis.
  • Such means may direct the hair entraining air stream about the axis of a curling receptacle, or it may be a rotatable rod to which thetress is attracted and held by the air stream sucked through the rod, as will hereinafter more fully appear.
  • the invention thus makes possible the production of automatically and unidirectionally wound tresses, either spiral or croquinole, with the added advantage of eliminating the tress-separation or blocking operation which normally precedes winding, and does so with an absolute minimum of manual dexterity and at a greatly increased rate of speed over manual winding.
  • Our invention not only eliminates the laborious task of manually winding tresses, which has been essential for many years, but, at the same time, makes it possible to achieve the desired results, especially as to desired size, configuration, and direction of winding of the tress.
  • serious limitations such as in mass and length of tress which can be satisfactorily waved or set when the hair is wound manually, are overcome, as will hereinafter appear.

  • the end of the stator is attached, by suitableflexible tubing 44, to a source of suction such as pump 46 to cause air to flow through the apertures of the turbine stator and through the slots in air receiver 14, in receptacle 20, and in winding member wall 32.
  • the perforate tubular winding member wall 32 with its longitudinally extending slots 34 extends axially and centrally of the assembly, preferably for substantially the entire length of the surrounding receptacle 20;
  • the end of the member 32 is closed so that its only through air passage is by means of slots 34, and that is the only communication between the interior and exterior of winding member shaft 30 is through the slots 34 which are, say, from ten to twelve in number, occupying about 50% of the area, so that air may pass relatively freely through wall 32.
  • the perforated receptacle 20 surrounds slotted wall 32 and is spaced therefrom to provide an annular chamber into which the tress is wound.

  • receptacle 20 is provided with a clamping ring 29 fitting tightly therein but slideable longitudinally thereof, whereby a hair tress wound therein may be compressed against cover 26 and thus be securely clamped in the receptacle after winding.
  • the receiver 14 surrounding receptacle ,20 is provided with at least one and preferably two longitudinally extending slots 17, 18 at an angle to the radius thereof to impart a circular motion to air flowing therethrough, as well as a surrounding-C shaped cover member 19 spaced outwardly from the receiver body, the opening in said cover member being sutficient to give access to the one of said slots, slot 18, which extends for the full length of the receiver 14 while preventing access to the other.
  • the air motor in addition to having its operating vanes 36 and angled holes in its stator for providing a circular air stream, as well has a centrifugal brake 40 for limiting the speed of its rotation.
  • independent drive means be provided in the form ofthe air motor having the plurality of vanes 36 acted upon by the circular air stream produced by the angled holes 42 in its stator 16, which holes should be angled in the same direction as deflector slots 17, 18 in order that the circular air streams produced may be in the same direction.

  • winding member 30 will continue its rotation until the completion of the winding operation, in spite of a substantial restriction of air flow through winding member slots 34, because of the independent drive provided by theturbine elements. This is important in ensuring proper winding, even of heavy or long tresses, which might not be completely wound by reason alone of circular air flow in the receptacle 20.
  • the air motor after the tress has been fully wound, will then, because of its low torque, tend to stall and so tained against the upstream ing member which might detract bring the winding process to a stop without any uncomfortable pulling of the hair tress or twisting thereof from uniform winding.
  • the receptacle with the hair tress coiled therein is then pulled away from the rest of the assembly, the receptacle remaining in position on the head, as shown in FIG. 1.
  • the clamping ring 29, if used, may then be manually slid toward the cover 26 by inserting a finger through opening and the corresponding opening in ring 29, to clamp the tress in the receptacle. The process may then be repeated by inserting another receptacle 20 into receiver 14.
  • the tress is now held in a uniformly coiled configuration to receive a permanent wave or temporary set and, if treating agents are to be applied, this may readily be done through the porous wall of the receptacle. This process is repeated until the entire head of hair has been wound in the receptacles. After the waving or setting process is complete, the curled tress may be pulled out through the slot 23.

  • the receptacle is supported within the guide member by inwardly extending lugs 118 which support its end wall 112, while permitting fiow of air both through the major portion of said side and end walls 110, 112.
  • An inwardly extending rim 119 seals the upper edge of the receptacle relatively to guide member 114 so that an air stream passing through the slanted mouth opening of guide member 114 must flow entirely through the open mouth of the receptacle and thus a hair tress carried thereby will be carried into the receptacle.

Under these conditions, when the open mouth of the curler is introduced to a tress will be sucked through the open mouth of the receptacle and into the circularly moving air stream in its interior. This action will cause the hair tress to be wound up within the receptacle in the direction of flow of the circular air stream, as is shown in FIG. 16. After completion of the winding operation, the receptacle with the wound trees therein, may be pulled out of member 122 and the hair tress fastened and retained therein by suitable hairpins. I
  • the receptacle 125 may be rofor rotation by the circular air stream created by angularslots 124 in housing 122, to provide an even further control during hair tress winding.
  • devices other than a suction operated air motor may be employed, as for example, an electric motor (not shown), although the air motor is most convenient by reason of the availability of an air stream as a driving force in preferred embodiments of the invention. Still further modifications will occur to those skilled in the art.
  • the receiver or guide member surrounding the receptacle is of transparent plastic for observation of the curled tresses, although this is, of course, not essential to the operation of the device.
  • the apertured receptacle and its cover elements may be formed of any suitable material, desirably one that is resistant to waving chemicals. They may, for example, be molded as single, integral one-piece units of aceramic, or of a synthetic plastic composition, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, rubber, vinyl resins, nylon, Dacron, Teflon, or other similar materials. Desirably, the receptacles are somewhat flexible for the comfort of the wearer, particularly in overnight waving. However,
  • the dimensions of the winding elements of our curlers are variable over considerable ranges, depending upon a number of factors.
  • the size of the tress receivingapertures is, of course, related to the width or diameter of the hair tress which it is desired to treat, and should be suflicient to permit the tress to pass freely therethrough. Where the air stream device is used for tress selection, the tress receiving aperture should not greatly exceed in size the minimum needed for the tress size which it is desired to select.
  • the diameter of the rotary curl should generally be shaft portion internal to the of the same order as that of the conventional rods presently used for producing the desired wave or configuration, at least where the tress is wound directly thereon. For waving, this may range from with a source of suction connected to guide hair tress to be curled, the end of the hair j 0.20 to 0.40 inches, while for setting, somewhat larger diameters may be employed. Where an external surrounding perforate tubular member in the form of a receptacle for the curl is used, as in most of the embodiments, the inner diameter of the receptacle should correspond rather closely to that of the tress coils desired. For waving, this may desirably range from 0.50 to 0.75 inches, while for setting, somewhat larger diameters may be employed.
  • the length of the receptacle is such as to provide a tress receiving slot long enough to accommodate the width of the tress spread as a fiat, thin layer, which is desirable for this type of wind.
  • the receptacle length is desirably such as to accommodate fairly closely the length and mass of tress to be curled in the desired coiled state.
  • receptacles have been shown as more or less circular .in cross-section and uniform in diameter this is by no means essential, particularly where they are designed for spiral waving, for which purpose they may also be of triangular, square, oval or other cross-sectional shape and of varying diameter or cross-sectional dimensions throughout, or in only part of, their length.
  • Our air coiling device requires an air stream of considerable velocity, 100 feet per second being about a minimum at the'beginning of the coiling operation. We prefer a velocity of about 200 feet per second.
  • Pumping equipment capable of producing such velocity may comprise, for example, a oneor two-stage radial or mixed flow vaned impeller of a diameter between 4 and 6 inches driven by a universal type A.C. electric motor. This motor may require up to 1000 watts input and operate between 10,000 and 20,000 rpm.
