LIQUID DISPENSING COME Filed Jan. 23, 1929 Patented May 6, 1930 UNITED STATES CARL H. BRICKER, 0F DES MOINES, IOWA.
LIQUID-DISPENSING 00MB Application nled January 23,1929. Serial No. 334,518.
The principal obj ect of this invention is to provide a comb that is capable of dispensing liquid such as hair and scalp tonic directly to the roots of the hair. y
6 A further object of this invention is to provide a liquid dispensing comb that is capable of applying the liquid adjacent the roots of the hair to be treated without moistening the balance of the hair lwith, the applied liquid.
A still further object'of this invention is to provide a liquid dispensing comb capable of applying the liquid to the scalp and hair in any desired quantity and any point of location in the hair or on the scalp.
A still further object of this invention is to provide a liquid dispensing comb that is easily flled or emptied, and one that conforms to the curvature of the head of the user. A still further object of thisA invention is to provide a liquid dispensing comb that may readily and easily be cleaned, and will not dispense liquid from its reservoir unless manually operated to accomplish such a result.
A still further object of this invention is to provide a liquid dispensing comb that is economical in manufacture and durable in use.
These and other objects will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
My invention consists in the construction, 0 arrangement and combination oi the various parts of the device, whereby the objects contemplated are attained as hereinafter more fully set forth, pointed out in my claims and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Fig. 1 is a side view of my complete invention ready for use.
Fig. 2 is a cross sectional view of my comb illustrates its interior construction.
Fig. 3 is a side sectional View of the lilling end ot the reservoir of the comb.
Because of our present mode of living, it is absolutely necessary that we treat our scalp and hair with suitable tonics to obtain or retain healthy vigorous hair. The applying of such tonics directly to the roots of the hair, evenly, or in quantities at various locations las desired is not an easy task, and it is to overtaken on line 22 ofFig.'1 and more fully 4 come such difficulties that I have provided my manually operated liquid dispensing comb.
I have used the numeral 10 to designate the base portionof the comb having the teeth 11, of suitable material such as hard rubber, celluloid or the like. The comb portion has its length extending in an arc as shown in Fig. 1 in order that the lower ends of the teeth will form a convex line to conform to the shape of the head of the user. The upper surface oi" the base portion is in the form of a longitudinal trough as shown in Fig. 2, and which I have designated by the numeral 12.
Resting in the trough l2 and secured therein by suitable means, such as glue or the like, is the resilient tube 13 open at its bottom and communicating with the bottom of the trough. This tube, with the trough 12 forms the reservoir for holding the liquid to be dispensed, and is preferably made of rubber or the like. To straighten the device and facilitate the securing of the tube in the trough I have provided the two longitudinal shoulders 14 and 15 engaging the two marginal edges of the tube, respectively, as illustrated in Fig. 2. These shoulders also prevent the longitudinal opening of the tube from closing and eliminating communication between the inside of the tube and the bottom of the trough. Secured in one end of the tube 13 by suitable means is a collar 16 having its outer end threaded. Threaded into this collar 16 is the filling opening cap 17. The numeral 19 designates a passageway in each. of the teeth 11 having. one end communicating with the bottom of the trough 13 and its other end communicating with the outsideatmosphere at a point near the end of the tooth in 'which it resides.'
By such a construction when the reservoir contains the liquid to be applied it is merely necessary to place the free ends of the teeth of the comb adjacent the part of the Scalp to be treated and manually compress the tube 13. The amount of liquid dispensed will depend solely upon the amount the tube is com pressed.
If it is desired to treat the whole scalp with the liquid it may be accomplished easily and evenly by unitorma'lly squeezing the tube as the comb is run through the hair. By
' holding the free ends of the teeth adjacent the scalp at all times, the end portions of the hair will not be saturated with the Huid.' Of course if it is desired to saturate the full lengt-h of the hair with the tonic, the teeth should be so run through the hair that the i uid desired may be placed in the tube, and
when a shampoo is desired, liquid soap may be used. 'y Y. f
The comb is very easily cleaned by holding. the same under water and compressing the tube and allowing the same to return to normal condition, thereby forcingv the water in and out of the passageways 19.
Some changes may beQmade'initherc-on- 'struction and arrangement of my improved liquid dispensing comb without departing from the' real splrit and purpose of my invention, and it is my intention to cover by my claims any modified forms of structure or use of equivalents which may be reasonably within their scope.
I claim: v
