TUCK-CONIB.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Iatent No. 764,698, dated July 12, 1904.
Application filed December 3l, 1903. Serial IIo. 187,328.V (No model.)
To all whom rit 71mg/ concern.:
Be it known that I, HENRY S. ZINN, a citizen of the United States, residing' at Hutchinson, in the county of Reno and State of Kansas, have invented new and useful Improvements in Tuck-Combs, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to combs, and especially to the class of devices known as tuckcombs, which are worn by ladies in the hair and serve the twofold function of head ornamentation and securing and sustaining the bulk or knot of the hair upon the crown of the head. 1t is the practice at .the present day to highly ornament the heads of such combs in various ways, as by studding them with precious stones or the like. These combs, however, as now on the market are of such peculiar formation that the ornamentations can be placed only upon their rear faces, where they can be viewed only from the rear, or, in other words, by those occupying a position in rear of the wearer of the comb.
The present invention has for its objects to obviate the above -mentioned Vobjectionable feature and to produce a comb of this character in which the front face of the head may be ornamented, thereby permitting such ornamentation to be viewed from the front, and at the same time one in which the toothed section will when the comb is in position conform to the curvature of the head, thereby rendering' the device comfortable to the wearer, while at the same time the head portion or section of the comb may be enlarged to produce an enlarged area for the reception of the ornamentations and extending the range within which such ornaments may be viewed.
To these ends the inventioncomprises the novel features of construction and combination of parts more fully hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying' drawings, Figure 1 is a view illustrating the device applied for use; Fig. 2, a front perspective View of the comb. Fig. 3 is a rear perspective View of the same. Fig. 4 is a view of the blank from which the comb is formed illustrating the same prior to bending in shape.
My improved comb is composed of guttapercha, Celluloid, tortoise-shell, or the like, but may be made from other suitable or desired material, and comprises a head or body portion 1 and a toothed section 2, joined to the head portion by an integral reduced neck or connecting portion 3. as more clearly illustrated in Fig. 4. The head-section 1 is bent laterally into concave-convex form, thus producing a convex outer face 4, adaptable for ornamentation, and a concave inner face 5, which when the comb is in position, as in Fig. 1, conforms generally to the curvature of the knot or twist of hair. In this connection it is to be especially noted that owing to this lateral curving of the head portion the radial scope within which the jewels or other ornamentations borne by the front face of the same may be viewed is materially increased. The toothed section 2 is also bent laterally into concave-convex form, but in a reverse direction relative to the curvature of the head portion 1, thus presenting a concave inner face 6, which when the comb is in position, as in Fig. l, conforms generally to the curvature of the head, rendering the device comfortable to the wearer.
Attention is especially directed. to the fact that the reduced-neck 3, which unites the head and toothed sections, forms an integral part of each and at the same time admits of the parts being readily bent or curved laterally in the reverse direction and also admits of ,these sections being made of any necessary or desirable width. Thus the toothedl section particularly can be made of a width to receive the full number of teeth usually provided and necessary in devices of this character for properly securing the comb in the hair.
In producing my improved device l form from suitable material a blank preferably of the general outlines shown in Fig. 4-that is, one which comprises the enlarged head portion 1, toothed section 2, and reduced neck 3w then bend laterally and reversely the main portions 1 and 2 each into concavo-convex form. l
From Vthe foregoing it will be seen that I produce a comb of simplified construction which will be inexpensive to manufacture and one which in practice will efficiently perform its functions.
Vhile lnow believe the device herein shown and described to be the best adapted for the attainment of the ends in View, itis to be understood that I do not limit or conline myseltl to the details herein shown and described, inasmuch as various minor changes may bemade without departing' from the scope or spirit of the invention.
Having thus described my invention, what l claim isl. As a new article ot' manufacture, a tuckcomb comprising a head portion of lateral con cavo-convex vform and a toothed section of reverse lateral concaVo-conveX form relative to the head portion.
2. As a new article ol manufacture7 a tuckcomb comprising` a head portion ot' lateral con- HENRY S'. ZINN.
