Lane Johnson, Milwaukee, Wis., assignor to S. V. H. Corporation, Lake Forest, 111., a corporation of Illinois Application November 19, 1942, Serial No. 466,120
6 Claims. (Cl. 51-186) This invention relates to an improved hair remover and more particularly to that type of hair remover which comprises an abrasive adapted to be rubbed over the skin.
There have been numerous suggestions for many years as to various forms of abrasive hair removers but up to the present time these all involved a relatively expensive fabrication process, usually including either gluing or sewing of two ends of the abrasive sheet together. The present invention provides the hair remover in a single sheet which may be provided with abrasive on both sides and is readily reversible so that it produces four operating ,surfaces.
The invention is illustrated in the drawing, in which-- Figure 1 represents a plan view of a preferred form of hair remover; Figure 2 is a crosssection, taken along the line 2 in Figure 1; Figure 3 is a plan view of a modified form of the hair remover; and Figure 4 is a View of the hair remover in use.
As shown in the drawing, the hair remover comprises an integral sheet which is provided on each surface with a layer of abrasive material II. This abrasive material may be any standard fine abrasive such as emery paper. It is, of course, selected to remove hair without damage to the underlying skin.
The sheet may be built, as shown in Figure 2, by laminating two layers of paper I 2 and I3, each carrying abrasive on its outer surface. The sheet may, however, be made of one layer of paper coated on both sides with abrasive.
The sheet is approximately the width of the hand and is adapted to be folded along the lines I4 and I5. The distance from these lines to the outer ends of the sheet is approximately the length of the fingers in each case. The sheet is free from corners, particularly at the extremities, in order to avoid possible damage to the user. A central opening 16 is provided transversely of the sheet and adapted to admit all four fingers of the hand. In Figure 3, the opening is shown as rounded, whereas in Figure 1 the opening is rectangular. The opening is formed by cutting the sheet along the lines ll, I8, I9, 20, 2|, 22 and 23, which leaves the fiaps 24 and 25. These flaps serve to provide a better and firmer grip upon the sheet when it is in use. They may, however, be omitted, as shown in Figure 3.
Figure 4 indicates one method of utilizing the hair remover. The fingers are inserted through the opening 16 am are pressed against one end 26 of the sheet while the other end 21 is allowed to fit over the back of the hand. In this position the flap 24 acts to cushion or steady the action of the hair remover. It is obvious that by reversing the direction of inserting the fingers or by reversing the hand, all four surfaces of the sheet may be brought into operative position.
One advantage of using a laminated sheet is that lines of weakening may be provided in the surface to facilitate bending along the lines l4 and [5. This may be accomplished as shown in Figure 2 by cutting through the outer layer of material on one side at 28. If the sheet is built. up of three layers, this may be accomplished on both sides. Ordinarily, however, if the cut 28 is made approximately twice as wide as it is deep, free bending may be accomplished in both directions.
The foregoing detailed description has been given for clearness of understanding only, and no unnecessary limitations should be understood therefrom.
I claim:
1. A hair remover comprising a sheet of flexible abrasive material provided with a central opening transversely of the sheet adapted to admit the fingers, the ends of the sheet being rounded.
2. A hair remover comprising a single sheet of flexible material provided with abrasive material on'both surfaces thereof and having a central opening transversely of the sheet adapted to admit the fingers, the ends of the sheet being rounded, the width of the sheet being approximately that of the human hand and the length of the sheet being approximately two finger lengths.
3. A hair remover as set forth in claim 2, in which lines of weakness are provided along the adverse margins of the central opening.
4. A hair remover as set forth in claim 2, in which the central opening is provided with a pair of residual fiaps substantially filling the opening.
5. A hair remover as set forth in claim 2, in which the sheet material includes at least two layers of paper, one of which is cut substantially completely through to form the line of weakness on each side of the central opening.
6. A hair remover as set forth in claim 2, in which the sheet material includes at least two layers of paper, one of which is cut substantially completely through to form the line of weakness on each side of the central opening and in which the line of weakness is at least approximately twice as wide as it is deep.
