DEVICE FOR CURLING, WAVING OR SETTING HAIR Filed July 28, 1966 ted States ABS'IRACI' OF THE D i.
A device for curlingwaving or setting hair. cmprising a spherical shaped body of compressible elastic material having an inwardly extending circumferential slot in which a lock of hair may be wound and am by the resilient action of the body.
The present invention has for its obiect a dcviw for maintaining the hair curled. in order to curl it, to wave it or to set it, and comprising two or designed to he in contacting nela' n.- by of their faces. in order to grip a lock of hair. means mt vided to maintain the said facets of said wv-n material one against the r.
The invention has for its object, on the it it. to overcome the various disadvantages on with curlers or apparatus generally used for curling or waving hair, disadvantages such as damage to the hair, bad sets caused by the fastening means. difiicultiea when positioning these apparatus. complexity of the letter, discomfort resulting from the design of said apparatus and from the characteristics of the materials used for their pucticn, etc., and on the other hand, to provide a nimplc device, of easy and economic manufacture. melting it possible, on account of its shapes and of the used for its production, to'curl or wave the hair very quickly while giving it a natural appearance without spoiling it and without hindering the user, even when aalmp, this device offering the great advantage of effecting the waving or the setting in curls of unwaved hair within a time not exceeding minutes, without it being first necessary to moisten the hair.
For that purpose, according to the invention, the device is produced from an elastic material and in Otto piece, this device being substantially in the Shape of a sphere. a slot being provided on the circumference of said sphere and according to a diametrical plane of the latter. the hair being accommodated in the said slot.
According to an advantageous form of embodiment of the invention, a circular groove is provided, close to the bottom of the said slot. in each of the checks of the latter. these circular grooves establiahing'within the material of the device a cylindrical core the axis of which passes through the center of the said sphere, the hair being curled round said core and accent in the said grooves.
According to a particularly advantageous form of embodiment of the invention, the device is produced from an elastic material such as synthetic material in the shape of a foam.
Other details and features of the invention will become apparent from the description of the drawings accompanying the present, specification and which represent, by way of nonlimitative examples. two particular forms of embodiment of the object of the invention.
FIGURE 1 is an elevational and sectional view of a device according to the invention.
3,45%,2W Patented Aug. 5, 396$ FIGURE 2 is a diagrammatic view showing a lock of hair curled on a device according to the invention and wing how this lock is maintained in the said device.
FIGURE 3 shows two ways of using the said device.
FIGURE 4 in an clevational view in section of device rding to the invention.
FIGURE 5 is an clevational view in section of a variant of the device shown in FIGURE 4.
In the didcrent figures, the same reference numerals refer to similar elements.
According to the invention, the device 1 shown in the FIGURES l to 3 is produced from an elastic material and in one piece. This device is substantially in the shape of a sphere, a slot 2 being provided, according to a diametrical r w of the sphere. on the circumference of the latter. A circular groove 3 is provided. close to the bottom d of the slot 2, in each of the checks 5 of said slot. These circular grooves 3 establish. within the material of the device. a cylindrical core 6, the axis of which passes through the center of the said sphere and on which will he curled the lock of hair to be curled. The device 1 is produced from a synthetic material of low density in the of a foam. material such as polyurcthan, polyr. etc.
device according to the invention offers the ada oi allowing an easy curling of the hair.
ind. it will be sufficient to open the checks 7. h
in the clfr on of the arrows 9, in order to release the core 6; utter curling of the strand of hair, the checks 7, tn-i which because of the compression of the d rel core, are applied one against the other as shown in FIG- URE 2, enclosing the strand of hair, while the walls ll of the vea 3 are applied against the hair curled on the core. in: being thus prefectly held without being spoilt.
In order to remove the lock of hair curled on the device, it will be sumcient to apply a slight pull, according to the arrows ii, to the hemispheres 7 and 3 and to import to the latter a rotating movement in the opposite direction to that of arrow id.
As shown in FIGURE 3, the device according to the I invention it perfectly suitable for waving hair located on the sides and at the back of the head and for waving hair located at the top of the head.
Moreover, without losing its properties of maintaining the hair in situ, this device makes it possible to curl very thick looks.
The device shown in FIGURE 4 comprises two components l2 and M which are substantially in the shape of a half sphere. these components being intended to be assembled so as to form a sphere, a lock of hair being gri t between these two components maintained one against the other by an adhesive system 14.
The device shown in the FIGURE 5 comprises the said two components 12 and t3, the component t2 having a core w on which is curled the hair, these two poms being assembled by an adhesive system 1d. component 12 could also, in order to allow the accommodation of a lock of very thick hair, be provided with a circular groove 16 shown by a dash line. The adhesive system it permitting the assembly of the componcnts l2 and 13 is, for example, an adhesive system known by the name of Velcro! This adhesive system may also be provided from synthetic fibers. for example nylon fibers, integral with the faces 17 and 18 of the said components.
The great smoothness, the great elasticity as well as the lightness of the material used, the rounded-off shapes of the device as well as the complete lack of any hard, rigid or semi-rigid element give the locks of hair a natural appearance and allow the use of the said device 3 without any hindrance for the user even when the de- \ice is kept in place during the hours of sleep.
It is well understood that the invention is in no way limited to the described forms of embodiment and that many changes may be made to the latter without dc parting from the scope of the present patent application.
In particular the device according to the invention shown in the FIGURES l to 3, as well as the component 12 of the device shown in the FIGURE 5. could be produced from several components, said components being then permanently assembled by glueing, welding, etc.
I claim:
l. A hair curling device comprising a one piece substantially spherical body of a compressible readily deformable material, said body provided with an inwardly extending circumferential slot, said slot defining two substantially hemispherical cheeks joined by a central core, a circular groove opening in said slot within which hair is accommodated being provided in at least one check, the dimensions of said slot and said groove being such that the curling of hair around the core causes 4 compression thereof and tends to cause the two checks to contact each other at the inner face of each check.
2. A hair curling device as claimed in claim 1 wherein the body is made of a synthetic foam material.
3. A hair curling device as claimed in claim 2, wherein the body has an elasticity which permits the volume of the body to be reduced in compression by at least fifty percent with reference to its initial volume.
