United States Patent O 3,102,544 GRGMING DEVICE Thomas E. Keegan, @als Parli, and Neil E. Sherer, Maywood, lill. Filed Jan. i8, i961, Ser. No. 83,425 2 Claims. (Cl. 132-147) The present invention relates to the grooming of hair and is concerned particularly with the combing of hair by a person who iinds it desirable to use a hair dressing.
The advantages gained from using a hair dressing are maximized by applying the hair dressing in small amounts at relatively frequent intervals, thus avoiding an excessive application of hair dressing material at any time While achieving an optimum conditioning of the hair at all times through the frequent application of the hair dressing used. yFor this reason, the well groomed person who uses a hair dressing may iind it desirable to apply a small amount of hair dressing as a touch-up to the previously applied dressing when the hair is being combed. This may be particularly desirable on occasions when the person is grooming for an appointment or the like.
However, the matter oi applying hair dressing at frequent intervals, particularly on occasions when it may be most needed during the day for important occasions, is often dicult or inconvenient to do. In the first place, a person may not have his hair dressing available when it is most needed. Moreover, application of the hair dressing `tends to be a somewhat inconvenient procedure in which the hands may be soiled. Where a washroom is not available a person may not undertake the application of a hair dressing, even though it is much needed.
One object of the present invention is to provide a novel hair grooming device which arlords many worthwhile advantages to the user in maintaining proper grooming of the hair.
Another object is to provide a new and improved hair grooming device which can be carried and handled with the same ease and convenience as a conventional comb and `which serves not only as a comb but also as a means for eliciently applying a `hair dressing in any desired quantity without soiling the hands of the user.
Another object is -to provide an improved hair grooming device, as recited, which can be handled and used as a single integral unit to apply a hair dressing in the form of an aerosol and to comb the hair as necessary to maintain optimum grooming.
Another object is to provide an improved hair grooming device cf the character recited which is used as a one-piece uni-t to comb the hair and to apply hair dressing in an aerosol from a removable aerosol cartridge firmly supported in the integral unit in a manner which provides for easy removal and replacement of the cartridge.
A further object is to provide a hair grooming device of the character recited having an improved construction which maximizes the aerosol hair dressing storage capacity of an extremely compact hair grooming unit.
Another object is to provide a hair grooming device which achieves the above recited objects by means of an improved construction which is strikingly simple and inherently economical to manufacture on a mass production basis.
Other objects and advantages will become apparent from the following description of the exemplary embodiment of the invention illustrated in the drawings, in which:
FIGURE l is a perspective view of a hair grooming device forming the exemplary embodiment of the invention illustrated;
FIG. 2 is a perspective View illustrating the use of the grooming device to apply a hair dressing;
FIG. 3 is a fragmentary longitudinal sectional view of ice the hair grooming device taken with reference to the -line 3 3 of FIG. l;
FIG. 4 is a transverse sectional view taken along the line lt-l of FIG. l;
lFIGS its anenlarged fragmentary sectional View of the grooming device as it appears in FIG. 3; and
FIG. 6 `is a fragmentary sectional view generally similar to FIG. 5 but illustrating dislodgment of the aerosol cartridge by one finger of the user.
Referring to the drawings `in greater detail, the hair grooming device l@ forming the exemplary embodiment of the invention illustrated has an over-all size and shape conforming generally to that of a conventional comb. The grooming device itl is well suited to be carried in a purse or pocket in the same manner as a conventional comb and is held in one hand for use in the manner of a comb.
Structurally, the grooming device lt) comprises an elongated body or support member 12; extending ythe full length of the unit and defining an internal socket or chamber lll of cylindrical shape extending substantially the full length of the body, as shown in FIG. 3.
The longitudinal chamber .la houses a thin cylindrical aerosol cartridge i6 containing a suitable hair dressing material l in liquid form, FIG. 5. It will be understood that the liquid within the cartridge 16 is maintained under pressure by a suitable propellant loaded into the cartridge in accordance with conventional practice in the production of aerosol containers. The cartridge 16 is socketed in the longitudinal chamber 1d where it is securely retained until the supply of aerosol liquid wit-hin the cartridge is depleted and the cartridge is replaced by a new cartridge.
The cartridge 16 is initially assembled into the support member 12 by moving the cartridge longitudinally through an open end Ztl of the longitudinal socket or chamber d4. 'Ille cartridge is firmly held lin its fully assembled position Within the support member -112 by eX- tremely simple retaining structure which effects a irm retention ofthe cartridge in its assembled position, while at the same time providing yfor convenient removal and replacement of the cartridge after it has been depleted.
Preferably, the chambered longitudinal support or barrel i2 is ifonmed of a suitable plastic material. As shown, the cartridge chamber 1,4 and the cartridge lo extend nearly through the full length of the support body or barrel 12 from the open end 20 of the chamber. The etiective bottom of the chamber 14.` is defined by an annular ange or `ledge 22 formed integrally with the end of the body -12 opposite tfrom the chamber opening 20 and being turned radially inward, as shown in FIGS. 3, 5 and 6-. The inner periphery of the ledge 22 deiines an opening 24 into the adjacent end of the chamber 14 which is suiiiciently large to permit entry of one [linger 26, FIG. 6, of the user to dislodge the cartridge 116 for replacement, as will presently appear.
The cartridge 16 has a thin cylindrical shape and has a construction which, in itself, conforms to conventional practice in the fabrication of aerosol containers. Hence, the aerosol cartridge 16 is inherently economical to manufacture.
As illustrated best in FIGS. '5 and 6, the end of the cartridge 16 fwhich is first inserted through the socket opening 2o lfor movement `down into the socket or chamber .14 is closed by a cover 28 secured to the cylindrical Wall of the cartridge -in a yconventional marmer which forms at the adjacent end of the cartridge an annular bead 3d protruding radially outward beyond the cylindrical wall of the cartridge.
Bottoming or socketing of the cartridge 16 in the chamber 14 forces the annular bead 3d on the bottom end :E of the cartridge into a receiver 32 deiined in the bottom r left-hand end of the chamber `14, with reference to FIGS. 3, and 6. This receiver 32 is located immediately adjacent the inwardly turned ledge 32.y previously inentioned and is defined by the ledge 22 and an anf nular protuberance 3d yformed on the inner wall of the chamber 14 and projecting a very short distance radially inward in axially spaced relation to the ledge 22, as shown in FIG. 5. The axial spacing of the protuberance or constricting element 34 from the ledge or iianfge 22 is just suiiicient to accommodate the axial length of the cartridge bead 3d. The degree to which the annular protuberance 34 projects inwardly is somewhat exaggerated in FIG. 5 for clearness in illustration.
The structural material of the barrel l2 is somewhat elastic. Hence, moderate longitudinal force on the cartridge will move the cartridge bead 30 past the constricting protuberance 34 to enter the receiver :i2` where it Iis rmly held throughout all normal use of .the grooming device.
A valve controlled atomizing head 38 of conventional construction is mounted in the end of the cartridge i6 opposite from the receiver 32 and projects somewhat beyond the adjacent endof the support barrel l2, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. The atomizing head 318 is movable and is designed to respond to axially applied ingerpressure to discharge an atomized spray liti, FIG. 2, of hair dressing material through an atomizing nozzle 39, PIG. 2, forming'a part of the head. Normally, the head 3S is Kcovered by a squared plastic cap 42 pressed over the adjacent end of the barrel 12, as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 3. An inwardly projecting annular protuberanlce 44 on the barrel end of the cap 42 tits into an annular depression d6 in the external sur-face of the barrel, FGS. 2 and 3, to releasably retain the cap in place. v
A linear series of comb teeth Sil is integrally 'formed on the support barrel i12 to project from the barrel in a straight line, as illustrated in FIGS. l to 3. Preferably, the series of comb teeth Sti extends along substantially the full length of the barrel l2.
By virtue of its small `diameter and itsrelatively great length, which extends substantially the full length of the grooming ldevice l0, the cartridge 16 provides a generous supply of a hair dressing aerosol liquid 1S within a grooming unit which is generally comparable in size with a conventional comb having a similar number and size of teeth.
Moreover, the entire hair grooming assembly by virtue 0f its highly simpliiied construction is well suited for economical manufacture on a mass production basis. As
previously intimated, the hair grooming device iti is carried and used in the Same manner as a conventional comb to comb the hair. if application of hair dressing is desired, the user has merely to remove the cap d2, hold the device in one hand, as illustrated in FIG. 2, and apply rfinger pressure to the atomizing head 38. The user directs the atomized mist of hair dressing toward his hair to apply any amount of hair dressing desired. This. rnay be only a minute quantity of hair dressing material for touch-up purposes. Ther users hands do not come in contact with the hair dressing and are not soiled in this simple procedure which can be easily and unobstrusively carried out under any circumstances in which combing of the hair would be acceptable. The cap 4Z is replaced after use. l
To replace a spent lcartridge i6, the user inserts one nger 26 through the barrel opening 2d to apply axial force to the cartridge xdislodging it from the receiver 32 for removal and replacement with a new cartridge.
The invention is claimed as follows: f 1.
