Definitions

  • An apparatus for treating hair to produce a flat curl comprises a cup-shaped member for receiving a manually preformed spiral curl of hair, a pressure member arranged for insertion into the cup-shaped member to subject the preformed curl to pressure, and operator means for moving one of said members relative to the other to apply and release said pressure.
  • Means are provided for applying a rehydrating vapor into the cupshaped member in direct contact with the preformed curl of hair to keep the curl in its normal hygrometric state while it is being subjected to said pressure.
  • PATENTEDUU 5 ma SHEEI 1 OF 4 INVENTUR. Vn pfyp gnbfotak BY 7/ ⁇ 142mb Jonah.
  • the invention relates to a method and apparatus for the treatment of hair so as to keep it curled and concerns a basic hairdressing operation, the production of a "fiat" curl.
  • the curl has hitherto been formed by the following methods
  • a lock of hair was set into spirals and a complete circle, made as regular as possible. These curls were then wrapped and held in position by a small square of paper, called a curl paper. These curl papers were heated by means of tongs comprising two weights heated in the flame of a gas heater; this instrument was used to press and heat the lock with its paper wrapping, giving to the curl the required shape.
  • the present invention has for its object to obviate the disadvantages of known methods and to obtain other advantages.
  • FIGS. 5 to 8 diagrammatically show the apparatus in different positions so as to illustrate the method of working and F 168. 9-12 illustrate two methods of using the apparatus and show the hairdressing operations which can be performed.
  • the apparatus has the configuration of a pistol comprising a handle 1 or butt attached to an arm 2, generally of rectangular cross section, tenninating at the handle end in two parallel plates 3 attached together by screws or rivets 4-5, one plate being used for attachment to arm 2, and the other plate being used for attachment to arm 2, and the other plate being used for attachment to handle I.
  • arm 2 bears a basin or cup-shaped member 6 which is open on top and which is designed to receive the lock of hair for treatment and which forms the female element of a device acting as a mould or gauge for shaping and treating the curl in cooperation with a male element which will be described hereinafter.
  • a spindle 7 extending through plates 3 pivotally bears a unit comprising a trigger 8 whose upper end is integral with an arm or bar 9 disposed perpendicular to trigger 8 and containing or bearing the operative parts of the apparatus.
  • the end of am 9 forms the male element of the mould, in the form of a container 10 which is designed to cooperate with the cup 6 so as to compress the curl and bring the hair into direct contact with moistening or rehydrating vapor.
  • the container 10 is a small boiler in which a rehydrating liquid is introduced through aperture 10' and acts on the hair after being converted into vapor by heating resistances ll supplied with current by conductors l2 extending inside arm 9 and trigger 8 and connected to an external current supply.
  • An asbestos plate 34 disposed at the bottom of the container is impregnated with the rehydrating liquid.
  • member 15 On the opposite side of fastener 16, member 15 comprises a hook 21 which receives the central part 22 of the prongs 23 of a forlt; prongs 23 are wound on a rod 24 welded to the bottom of slider 14. Prongs 23 also form pins 25, which are two in number in the example shown.
  • slider I4 The lower part of slider I4 is in the form of a tongue 27 which cooperates with a lug 28 on the fixed arm 2.
  • the apparatus also comprises a hairpin spring 29 rolled round a spindle 30 supported by handle 1.
  • of the spring is held between screw 5 and the inner surface of handle I, and the other arm 32 makes contact with trigger 8.
  • cup 6 is formed with notches 6' at opposite sides, allowing a finger to extend through (FIG. 1).
  • An apparatus for treating hair to curl it and to maintain it in the form of curls comprising a cup-shaped member for receiving a lock of hair, a pressure member arranged l'or insertion into said cup-shaped member to subject the lock of hair to pressure, means for moving one of said members relative to the other to apply and release said pressure, and means for applying a rehydrating vapor into direct contact with said lock of hair to keep said lock in its normal hygrometic state while it is being subjected to said pressure, said apparatus including a first arm carrying said cup-shaped member at its free end, a second arm pivotally connected to said first arm and carrying said pressure member at a position wherein it may enter said cup-shaped member when said arms are pivoted relative to one another, said pressure member taking the form of a container into which a liquid can be introduced, said means for applying rehydrating vapor including a heater for transforming liquid in said container into a vapor, the lower surface of said container being positioned in facing relation to said cup-shaped member and being formed
  • the apparatus of claim 4 including means for latching said slider at said predetermined position along said second arm against the restraint of said resilient means.
  • said pressure member takes the form of a container into which a liquid can be introduced
  • said means for applying rehydrating vapor including a heater for transforming liquid in said container into a vapor, the lower surface of said container being positioned in facing relation to said cup-shaped member and being formed with at least one hole for egress of said vapor into direct contact with a curl of hair in said cup-shaped member.
