sheath, the comb will be retracted.
The comb member may be used for dressing the hair preparatory to winding it into a curl. The hair is engaged between the teeth of the projected comb and the curler is rotated axially to wind the hair while the comb is still in projected position. After the hair has been wound, the handle is merely pulled out to withdraw the curler. This pulling movement of the handle retracts the comb to a position within the sheath and then pulls the entire curler clear ofthe hair, leaving the hair arranged in curl.
I am aware that it has heretofore been proposed to provide retracting hair combs. However, such prior combs are not adapted for use as curlers because they are provided with knobs or similar manipulating members that project upwardly or sidewise from the sheath and that would catch in the hair, consequently pulling the curl apart. v
An object of the present invention is to provide a curler in which the manipulating handle porl tion is arranged in line with the comb sheath so that by merely pulling the handle endwise, the comb may be retracted and the device withdrawn from the hair without disarranging the curl and with a single motion on the part of the operator.
A preferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which:
Figure 1 is a side view, partly in section, of a comb curler embodying the invention, showing the comb in projected position;
Fig. 2 is an exploded perspective View of the parts of the device;
Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view of the device, showing the comb retracted, taken on the line 3--3 of Fig. 4;
Fig. 4 is a sectional view taken on the line 4--4 of Fig. 3;
Fig. 5 is an enlarged cross-sectional view on the line 5-5 of Figure l; and
Fig. 6 is an enlarged sectional view looking in the direction of the line 6 6 of Fig. 3.
The component parts of the device are shown separated in Fig. 2, wherein, and throughout the several views, IIl indicates a comb which is adapted to be retracted into or projected out from the sheath II upon endwise sliding movement of the handle I2 and the sheath relatively 5 to each other. On drawing or pulling the handle endwise away from the sheath the comb is retracted, and vice versa.
For convenience in gripping the handle, it may be provided with indentations I3 in its sides.
Two spaced parallel arms I4, I4 project forwardly from a point within the front end of the handle. A recess I5 is left between the handle and the projecting arms to provide a space into which the open end of the sheath II slidably fits. -l5
For clarity of illustration, the arms I4 are shown as integral with the handle, but they may be made separate and suitably secured thereto.
Each arm I4 has two parallel inclined slots I6, I6. The forward pair of slots terminate in short ends I1 while the rear pair terminate in longer ends I8, said ends extending substantially parallel to the top edge of the arms. The comb Il) is received between the arms I4 and it has two studs I9, I9 on each side which ride freely in the slots I6.
The sheath II is closed at its front end 20 but is open at the top and at its rear end, that is to say, the end that enters and slides in the recess I5 of the handle. The sheath has opposed holes 2I in its side walls in which the ends of the pin 22 seat. The pin is xed to the sheath, preferably by driving it into the holes with a tight fit. The comb is conned between the closed end ofY the sheath and the pin 22, and it is guided in its upward and downward movement by the slots I6. Other means than the pin 2l may be used for conning the comb.
The comb is shown in projected position in Figure l, and in retracted position in Fig. 3. On pulling the handle endwise outwardly from the position of Figure 1 to the position of Fig. 3, the comb is retracted into the sheath from its projected position.
In use, the device with the comb in projected position as shown in Figure l is engaged in the hair and the hair is wound around the comb by rotating the handle about its longitudinal axis. The comb may also be employed to arrange the hair before it is curled. After the curl has been formed, the comb is retracted and the device is bodily removed from the hair by merely drawing the handle outwardly with a continuous movement of the hand.
It will be seen from the foregoing description that the handle and sheath have a telescopic movement on one another, and that the movement of the comb from projected to retracted position, and vice versa, is controlled by a simple endwise movement of the handle in any position of the curler in the hair.
While I have shown and described a preferred embodiment of the invention,`it is to be understood that it may be embodied in other forms and that various changes in its construction may be made without departing from the scope of the invention as deiined in the claims.
1. A curler of the character described comprising a sheath open at the top, an elongated handle extending rearwardly from and slidably mounted on the rear end of the sheath, an arm xed to the handle extending forwardly into and enclosed within the sheath, said handle-arm being slidably connected thereto, a retractile comb enclosed within the sheath with its teeth normally lprojecting outward through the open top, and a pin'and slot connection enclosed within the sheath between the handle-arm and comb operable on pulling the handle rearwardly to cause the'comb to retract and the sheath to be withdrawn from the hair.
'2. A curler of the character described comprising a sheath open at the top, an elongated handle extending rearwardly from and slidably mounted on the rear end of the sheath, said handle having a recess in its front end into which the rear end of the sheath slidably lits, an arm ilxed to the handle extending forwardly into and enclosed within the sheath, said handle-arm being' slidably connected thereto, a retractile comb enclosed within the sheath with its teeth normally projecting outward through the open top, and a pin and slot connection enclosed within the vsheath between the handle-arm and comb operable on pulling the handle rearwardly to cause the comb to retract and the sheath to be withdrawn from the hair.
3. A curler of the character described com prising a sheath closed at its front and open at its top, an elongated handle extending rearwardly from and slidably mounted on the rear end of the sheath, a pair of arms fixed to the handle extending forwardly into and enclosed within the sheath, a retractile comb enclosed within the sheath between said'handle-arms with its teeth normally projecting outward through the open top and with its front end abutting the front end of the sheath, pins extending laterally from the comb into oblique guide slots in the handle-arms, said slots having horizontal extensions to support the comb in its normal projected position, and a pin `abutting against the rear end of the comb and passing transversely through the sheath and the horizontal extensions of the slots to slidably connect the sheath to the handle, whereby on pulling the handle rearwardly the comb is retracted and the sheath withdrawn from the hair.
4. A curler of the character described comprising a sheath open at its top around which sheath thehair to be curled may be wound, a retractile comb enclosed within the sheath with its teeth normally projecting outward through the open top to engage the hair, an elongated handle extending rearwardly Afrom and slidably mounted on the ,rear end of the sheath, and means enclosed within the sheath for operatively connecting the handle and the sheath so that on pulling the 'handle rearwardly in a single continuous motion the comb is retracted into the sheath to disengage its teeth from the hair and the curler is bodily withdrawn from the hair.
