A W WW United States Patent 3,376,656 WIG JIG Joseph A. Cavallo, 7434 Atlantic Blvd, Jacksonville, Fla. 32211 Filed Jan. 19, 1967, Ser. No. 610,371 3 Claims. (Cl. 34-90) ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A wig jig for supporting a wig block under the hood of a hair dryer comprising a first resilient support member provided with a means for suporting a wig block and terminal portions which are received in the hood of the dryer, and a second member extending outwardly at right angles from the first member and terminating in a free end portion adapted to be inserted through a handle or loop located on the hood support. This abstract is intended neither to define nor limit the scope of the invention.
This invention relates to a wig jig and more specifically to a wig jig which is adapted to maintain a wig block in the proper position relative to a hair dryer hood.
Briefly, the wig jig comprises first and second resilient wire support members. The first member has a midsection provided with a wig block supporting means intermediate its ends, terminal sections having free outer ends adapted to be received in apertures provided in a dryer hood, and intermediate sections interconnecting the midsection and terminal sections. The second resilient wire support has one end slidably and pivotally mounted on the midsection of the first member and a free end adapted to be inserted through a handle or loop located on the hood support.
The wig jig of the present invention can be easily installed under the hood of a hair dryer and provides an inexpensive, convenient means for supporting wigs under a hair dryer.
Further, due to the resilience of the members, the jig is more durable under normal usage and it can be adapted to fit hoods of varying diameter.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become more apparent from the following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings in which FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of the wig jig in position under a dryer hood and FIGURE 2 is a top plan view of the wig jig of FIGURE 1.
Referring to FIGURE 1, the Wig jig is generally indicated by reference character 2. The jig is made up of first and second resilient support members, one of which is adapted to be connected to the hair dryer hood, the other of which is adapted to be inserted through a handle or loop located on the hood support.
The first support member 3 is made up of a midsection 4, terminal sections 6, 6, and intermediate sections 5, which interconnect the terminal sections and midsection. The midsection 4 extends in a generally horizontal plane and is provided intermediate its end portions with an upwardly projecting inverted U or V shaped portion 7 which is adapted to support a wig block 19.
Diverging upwardly and outwardly from the ends of midsection 4 are resilient intermediate sections 5, 5' which connect the midsection 4 with the iner ends of the horizontally extending terminal sections 6, 6, respectively. The terminal sections 6, 6' extend in the same horizontal direction as the midsection 4 and have free outer end portions which are adapted to be inserted into holes located in the hood of a hair dryer.
In the preferred embodiment, the second resilient support member 8 has a free end portion 13, a loop portion 9 and intersecting portions 10, 11 and 12. As shown in FIGURE 1 the loop portion 9 is slidably and pivotally mounted at the left end of the midsection 4 and interconnecting portion 10 extends outwardly from the loop portion 9 at right angles to the midsection 4 in a generally horizontal direction. Portion 11 extends upwardly and outwardly from the end of portion 10 in such a manner that it also extends toward the right as viewed in FIGURE 1. Portion 12, like portion 11, also extends toward the right, from the end of portion 11, in a generally horizontal direction and in substantially the same axial direction as midsection 4 with the terminal free end portion 13 of member 8 extending outwardly at right angles from the end of portion 12.
While for purposes of description, member 8 has been shown extending from the left end of midsection 4, it is to be understood that member 8 may also be positioned on the right end of midsection 4 with sections 11 and 12 extending generally toward the left. Also, it is contemplated that the wig jig will be made out of resilient wire or the like with the preferred form being made of 13 gage galvanized wire.
In operation, terminal portions 6, 6' of the wig jig, as shown in FIGURE 2, are inserted in holes 16 located in the hood 15 of dryer 14. The midsection 4 is then swung slightly forward and a wig block is positioned on the mounting means 7. Next, the free end portion 13 of member 8 is inserted through a handle 18 located on the hood support 71 thereby securely holding the wig jig and the wig block in the proper position beneath the hood of the dryer.
While the preferred form of the invention has been shown and described, it is to be understood that all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to which fall within the scope of the invention as claimed.
What is claimed is:
1. A wig jig to be used in combination with a hair dryer comprising:
a first resilient wire support member having a midsection provided with a wig block mounting means, two terminal sections and two intermediate sections flaring away from and interconnecting said midsection with the two terminal sections; said terminal sections each having an outwardly extending free end portion which is adapted to be received in a suitable aperture located in a hair dryer hood; and a second resilient wire support member having one end pivotally and slidably mounted on the midsection of said first memher and having the other end adapted to be inserted through a handle located on a dryer hood support whereby the first and second support members maintain the wig block in the proper position relative to the dryer hood.
2. The wig jig of claim 1 wherein the wig block mounting means comprises an upwardly projecting inverted U-shaped portion of the midsection.
3. The wig jig of claim 2 wherein the midsection and terminal sections extend in the same axial direction and wherein the second resilient support member extends outwardly from said midsection at an angle of substantially ninety degrees.
