CLEMENT A. DUNBAR, OF DETROIT, MICHIGAN, ASSIGNOR T0 LOUIS S. LEVV'Y, 0F MOUNT CLEMENS, MICHIGAN.
HAIR-PIN.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 5, 1909.
Application filed August 25, 1908. Serial No. 450,174.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CLEM NT A. DUNBAR, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Detroit, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hair- Pins, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
The invention relates to hairpins, and consists in the peculiar construction as hereinafter set forth.
In the drawing, the figure is an elevation of the pin.
As illustrated, the pin comprisesthe prong portions A and B, united by a return-bend C. The prongs are bent inwarda'nd converge from said return-bend to the point D. The portions of the. prongs E and F beyond the point D are bent outwardly, and these outwardly-bent portions are bent inwardly at G and H and converge to a second oint I. The portions of the prongs beyon the point I diver e therefrom and are then bent to form parallel prong ends J and K, which are spaced a distance slightly greater than the greatest. distance between the converging portions of the prongs.
In use, the pin is inserted in the hair in the ordinary way.- It is apparent, however, that a bunch of hair entermg between the ends J and K can not pass the points I and D Without a relative lateral movement of the prongs. This forms a double clamping effect, which effectively locks the pin against dropping out of the hair, as it will be necessary to separate the sides in order to permit the hair that is in the body portion to pass beyond the points D and I.
What I claim as my invention is:
A hair pin comprising two-prong portions united by a return-bend and converging from said bend to a point intermediate the prong ends, the portions of the prongs beyond said point being bent outward and the outwardly-bent ortionsbeing bent inward to a second point whereby a plurality of clamps are formed, the portions of the prongs beyond said second point diverging therefrom and said last-mentioned portions being bent to form parallel prong ends, the distance .between said parallel prong ends being slightly greater than the greatestdistance between the converging portions of the prongs.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses oLEMENT .A. DUNBAR.
