N D' TATES... PA ENT. QFFIQEM GEORGE H. SMITHQAND JACOB STIEGLITZ, OF'YON'KERS, unwiroax. l I col v le-F sTnshf Application filed February 18,1905. Serial No. 246,353.
ToaZZ whomit may concern:
Be it known that we, GEORGE E. SMITH andJAooB STIEGLITZ, citizens of the United States, residing at Yonkers, in the county of Westchester and State of New York,have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Comb-Fasteners; and we do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to numerals of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
The objects of this invention are to hold a ladys back comb in position on the head with greater security, to prevent the same from working out from the hair and falling, and thus being broken or lost; to enable the comb to be held without injury to the hair and without rendering the comb objectionable in appearance; to enable the fastening to be done with greater convenience and at a reduced cost of construction; to enable the fastening means to be applied to ordinary combs nowfound in the market, and to secure other advantages and results, some of which may be referred to hereinafter in connection with the description of the working parts.
The invention consists in the improved comb, in the comb-fastening means therefor, and in the arrangements and combinations .of parts of the same, all substantially as will.
be hereinafter set forth, and finally embraced in the clauses of the claim.
' in which like figures-of reference indicate cor- I Referring to the accompanying drawings,
responding parts in each of the several figures, Figure 1 is an elevation of a comb having the improved fastening means. Fig. 2 is a similar view of a portion of a comb, showing the side toward the head. Fig. 3 is a detail view showing a certain clip in blank, and Fig. 4 is a detail section taken at line a: of Fig. 2. i
In said drawings, 5 indicates the comb,
which may be of any usual construction. 6 indicates a clip, which is preferablymade-of celluloid and more or less closely resembles the said comb in appearance, so that said clip will not prominently be in view and detract from the appearance of the comb. Said clip is provided with arms ,7 7, adapted to extend around one or more of the teeth of the comb near the base thereof. Said clip isstamped or molded from the celluloid, as indicated in Fig. 3, and the said armsare turned to encircle or inclose teeth of any usual standard size and are roughened on their inner sides to hold to the teeth more securely by friction. 1 At the end of the clip opposite the said arms 7 the said clip is perforated, as at 8, to receive an eyelet 9, by meansof which latter a hook 10 is pivotally secured to the face of the said clip. The said hook is provided with a finger-piece 11 which lies in practice near the upper edge 12 of the comb at the rear or concaved sidethereof, so as to be easily pressed by the finger in one direction or the other in turning the hook on its pivot. The hook 10 is shown more clearly in Fig. 2 and at its free extremity lies in a curved line approximately concentric with the center of the eyelet 9, as shown at 13, and thus when the said hook is turned by manipulating the finger projection 11 it is forced into the hair or out therefrom without-injury to the hair. The hook and finger-piece 11 move in the plane parallel with the comb back, as indicated in Figs. 1 and 2, and so when the hook is in hooking relationthe finger-piece is brought to a position of concealment behind the comb close thereto and near its upper edge, where said finger-piece or part is easily accessible for manipulation by the finger, or, more particularly, the finger-nail, the device enabling the finger-nail to catch upon the finger-piece or part lying just below or on a line with the top of the comb and turn the hook up from its holding relation to the hair in the plane parallel with the plane of the series of comb-teeth.
In operating the device we firstinsert the comb into the hair in the usual manner, the
fastening parts being then in the position shown in Fig. 2. The upwardly-projecting fingerextension 11 is then pressed by the finger laterally, so that said finger-piece is turned to a position below the edge 12 where it lies concealed from view, the hook being at the same time forced into the hair to fasten the comb, the said hook catching on the hair and preventing the comb from moving in the direction of its teeth, as will be understood. By simply reversing the movement of the hook the comb is released, so that it can be easily withdrawn from the hair. The hook lying at the center of the comb or between the ends thereof on being forced to its holding position moves in a plane parallel with the plane of the series of comb-teeth, crossi Patented June 19, 1906;
ing said teeth at the side of the comb toward the head at approximate right angles;
Having thus described the invention, what we claim as new is- 1. The improved comb herein described having a hook pivoted between the ends thereof, near the upper edge, and movable in a plane parallel with the plane of the series of comb-teeth, said hook having a finger-piece or part movable therewith in said parallel plane and adapted to lie either at the comback in parallel relation therewith or to project above said edge, substantially as set forth.
2. The combination with a comb, of a clip and hook held together by an eyelet, the said clip having arms whereby it may be fastened to the tooth of the comb, substantially as set forth.
3. The combination with a comb, of a clip and hook held together by an eyelet, the said clip having arms whereby it may be fastened to the tooth of the comb, and having its extremity lying in a curved line concentric with the center of the eyelet, substantially as ,set forth.
In testimony that we claim the foregoing we have hereunto set our hands this 30th day of January, 1905.
