Definitions
- the present invention generally relates to hair clips and more particularly to hair clips having pivotable jaws for gripping hair.
- butterfly clips One type of prior art clips which use pivotable jaws are generally known as butterfly clips. These clips comprise two jaw members having tines and being joined along a pivot axis. A spring arrangement is provided at the pivot axis to resiliently urge the tines of the jaws to a closed position to grip the hair. To enable the tines to be disengaged and the jaws opened, the jaws are provided with lever members extending therefrom at a position away from the tines. This gives the clip the classic 'butterfly' appearance and hence its common name. When the clips are worn the primary visible parts are the lever members or 'wings' and the joining pivot and spring mechanism. The problem is that although these clips are easy to use single handed, the spring and pivot mechanism is not very aesthetically appealing.
- US6142159 Another type of clip which provides pivotable jaws is disclosed in US6142159.
- This clip comprises a barrette made of a single flat strip of resilient material. Ends of the flat strip form tines that join when in the closed position. In one example the clip can be opened by pulling the two ends apart. This operation requires the use of two hands and is thus more complex than that required for opening butterfly clips.
- handle portions are provided and the strip flexes in a central region. While this enables single handed operation, it requires the central region to be flexible. This limits the decorative ability of the central region.
- a combined grooming device and hair clip is disclosed in which a body houses a grooming device such as a brush which can hingedly extend out from the body when used for grooming. The body carries two hinged arms which enable the device to be used as a hair clip. This device is however bulky as a hair clip and has low aesthetic appeal.
- the present invention provides jaw arrangements having tines, and a body arrangement to which the jaw arrangements are pivotably and resiliently mounted so as to urge the jaw arrangements to a closed position where said tines meet.
- a jaw opening arrangement is provided to allow the jaw arrangement to be opened single handed.
- the jaw arrangements are mounted on the body arrangement at pivot positions which define laterally spaced pivot axes.
- the present invention includes any body arrangement such as a single body part or multiple body parts acting to hold the effective pivot points of the jaw arrangements spaces laterally.
- the jaw arrangements can comprise any arrangement of single or multiple jaw parts. Where multiple jaw parts are provided, the jaw parts can be pivotable connected together to form a multiply pivoted jaw arrangement. The pivots in such an arrangement will lie substantially parallel.
