J. H. BEVINGTON. HAIR SINGER.
No. 433,439. Patented Aug. 5, 1890.
W W M I UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JAMES H. BEVINGTON, OF FOSTORIA, OHIO, ASSIGNOR, BY MESNE ASSIGN- MENTS, TO CHARLES W. ROBISON, OF PEORIA, ILLINOIS.
HAIR-SINGER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 433,439, dated August 5, 1890.
Application filed September 16, 1889i Serial No. 824,020. (No model.)
T0 (0% whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMES H. BEVINGTON, of Fostoria, Seneca county, Ohio, have invented a new and useful Hair-Singer, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a device for singe ing or cauterizin g the ends of the human hair after being out by the hair-dresser with the object of closing the hair-ducts exposed by the barbers shears, and thus preventing waste of the vital fluids upon which the life and continuance of the hair depend.
The construction of my device is such as to slightly cauterize and close up the exposed ends of the cropped hair without inj uriously singeing the same or impairing its vitality.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure I represents the two parts of the instrument detached and the handle being supplied with alcohol. Fig. II is an axial section of the instrument. Fig. III is an external view thereof.
The instrument consists of two separable niembers to wit, a head A and a combined lamp and handle B. The'headAis composed of a cresset l, of perforated sheet metal, constituting a foraminous hollow shell or cylinder partially closed at its ends by disks 2, having central orifices or ventages 3. Riveted to the foraminous shell I is a long tube or socket 4, preferably of spring-steel, and having a longitudinal split 5 to take the long cylindrical nozzle or burner 6 0f the other member B, which, below said burner, expands into a cylindrical tube 7, that serves both as a handle of the instrument and as the wickholder and spirit-chamber of a lamp. The other extremity of the said tube 7 is capable of being closed by a screw cap or plug 8.
A hole 9 in the shellI serves as a throat or passage-way for the flame into the said shell which discharges the functions of a Inc or chimney.
10 represents the wick.
The operation of the instrument is as follows: The wick 10, (which may be a common lamp-wick,) having been drawn through the rear of the tube 7 and partly through the burner 6, the said tube is charged with spirit, as shown in Fig. I, and closed at its rear end by the screw-cap 8. The protruding end of the wick being then lit, the part B is attached to the part Aby thrusting its burner into the socket l of the latter. There the products of combustion separate into two flames, which, having heated the foraminous shell I, the unconsumed gases escape through the ventages 3.
The instrument is used by passingit lightly to and fro over the comb as the latter is pushed through the hair, so as to slightly cauterize and stanch the recently-cut endsof the hair, and to thus keep the fluid contents from oozing out, and the hair from becoming dry and dead.
It will be seen that the flames do not come in direct contact with the hair, but only the heated sides of the foraminous shell.
The construction of the instrument is such as to enable the burner 6 to be thrust to a greater or less distance within the socket 4 for regulation of combustion, heating action, &c.
I reserve the right of such obvious modifications of the described instrument as consists in constructing the foraminous shell of wiregauze.
Generally only sufficient spirit will be used at one time for the present purposes; but should there remain any unconsumed spirit in the lamp its evaporation may be prevented by closing the burner with a suitable cap or extinguisher 8.
I claim herein as new and of my invention- 1. The hair singer or cauterizer composed of the combination of the foraminous head or cresset A and the combined lamp and handle B, substantially as set forth.
2. The self-heating and separable hair singer or cauterizer, consisting of the combination of the following elements, to wit: part A, consisting of foraminous shell I, having the socket 4, and part B, which consists of the combined lamp and handle, whose nozzle or burner 6 fits tightly within the said socket, as and for the purpose explained.
3. The combination of cresset A, having 5 the long elastic socket 4, and the combined lamp and handle B, having the long cylindrical burner 6, whereby the combustion and heating action are made capable of regulation in the manner stated.
JAMES H. BEVINGTON.
