Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. a, 19118.
Application filed March 1, 1915. Serial No. 11,292.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, PRICE EVANS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Sadorus, in the county of Champaign and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hair-Pins; and I hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form part'of this specification.
This invention relates to hairpins, and the primary object is to provide a hairpin that cannot turn or move backwardly and drop out of the hair, and at the same time may be easily forced into the hair and removed therefrom without pulling the "hair, and which shallbe simple in construction, inexpensive in manufacture and efiicient and reliable in use.
The invention will first .be hereinafter more particularly described, with reference to the accompanying drawings forming a.
part of this specification, and then pointed out in the claim at the end of the description.
In said drawings, Figure 1 represents a side elevation of a hairpin embodying my invention;
i Fig. 2 is an edge'view of the same, and- Fig. 3 is a detail sectional view" the section being taken on line 33 of Flg. 1.
Referring to said drawings, which illustrate the pin on a somewhat larger scale than is usually employed in practical use, the same'reference letters are used to denote corresponding parts in diflerent views. The letter A may denote a hairpin of arched type having outer prongs a, a, and an intermediate prong b, projecting from the center of the arch; said intermediate prong being provided with a series of bosses, knobs or protuberances 5 which are preferably wedge-like in form and taper toward the point of the prong so as to merge into the body portion thereof and present a smooth exterior that may easily enter the hair. The larger end of the protuberance may be beveled as at b to facilitate the withdrawal of the pin without pulling the hair or causing any inconvenience or trouble in removing it. The outer prongs a are of about the same length as the intermediate prong and are preferably plain.
A hairpin of the described construction is light in weight, sanitary, and can be manufactured in large quantities at very little expense. The mode of using it and its advantages will be readily understood from the foregoing description when taken in connection with. the accompanying drawings. The wedge-like form of the protuberances on the intermediate prong adapts the pin to be easily inserted. in the'hair, and when properly placed in the hair the spaced pro tuberances will hold the pin in place and prevent it from turning, while the beveled form of the larger ends of the protuberances adapts the pin to be readily removed without pulling the hair. The knobs or protuberances also press the hair tight against the outer prongs and prevent the As a new article of manufacture, a hairpin having several prongs of substantially the same length integral with an arched portion at one end of the pm; the outer prongs being plain, and the intermediate prong having 1ntegral spaced protuberances of wedge-like form substantially flat upon opposite sides thereof while the other two sides or edges which confront the outer prongs taper gradually toward the free end of the prong, the larger ends of s'ald protuberances being rounded ofl', whereby the pin is adapted to be easily inserted in the hair and withdrawn, while the intermediate prong is adapted to press the hair-against the outer prongs and prevent the pm from dropping out.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I afix my signature 1n presence of two witnesses. 1
