HEAD REST FOR BEAUTY SALON CHAIR OR CHAISE LONGUE Filed May .25, 1955 k I I 28 INVENTOR LOUISE N, WILLIAMS BY RAM ATTORNEY Unite States Patent HEAD REST BEAUTY SALON CHAIR 0R QHAHSE LONGUE Louise N. Williams, Rocky Mount, N. C.
Application May 25, 1955, Serial No. 510,974
3 Claims. (Cl. 155-473) It is well known that most women frequently go to beauty salons to have permanent waves" and/or other beauty treatments. When they are in the beauty salon they often have to sit for many hours under a drier while their hair is being dried.
An object of my invention is to provide a head rest that may be applied to the chair or chaise longue in which an individual must sit while undergoing the drying of hair.
A further object is to provide a head rest that may be adjusted toward or away from the chair or chaise longue, and up or down relative thereto.
Another object is to provide a head rest that will have a pliable material against which the head of the individual will rest.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a head rest which is attached to a chair or chaise longue in such manner that the part of the head rest which the individuals head touches will be substantially universally flexible.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a view in side elevation;
Figure 2 is a view in front elevation;
Figure 3 is a top plan view; and
Figure 4 is an enlarged horizontal cross section taken on the line 44 of Figure 2, and partly broken away.
The chair or chaise longue back is entirely conventional in form and is shown solely to represent the back of a chair, such as those in common use in beauty salons, and with which it will be highly desirable to use my head rest. The head rest statf 12 is likewise conventional in form and is adapted to be placed within a conventional clamp 14 so that it may be adjustably secured to the back of the chair 10.
Near the end of the stalf 12 remote from its point of attachment to the chair back, I provide a substantially right angle bend to which I secure a pair of resilient, and relatively strong, rods 16. The rods 16 are bolted to the bent-over portion of the stall 12 and are held securely thereon by a suitable bolt 18. The ends of the rods 16 which are thus bolted to the staff 12 may be held in any desired position relative to the back of the chair to which the staff is attached. Thus, the position of the resilient rods may be adjusted to be in any desired position relative to the seat of the chair as well as the back of the chair.
Suitably secured to the ends of the rods 16 remote from their point of being slidably bolted to the staff 12, I provide upstanding collars 20 through which a pair of arcuately shaped bows 22 pass and are immovably held therein by means of brazing, welding or the like. The bows 22 are bent into arcuate shape so that they properly maintain the head rest member 24. The head rest 24, at its ends, is secured to pin 26 which are secured ii. pivotally within eye bolts 23 which pass through collars 3t immovably secured to the ends of the bows 22, and are secured thereto by means of conventional cotter pins 32.
The head rest 24 is preferably made of a suitable pliable material, and is made in a relatively wide mesh, comparable to commercial hardware cloth. It being thus constructed, the head rest 24 will give or flex as the weight or pressure of an individuals head is placed thereon. Not only the mesh of the head rest 24 will give to a head placed against it, but at the same time the pins 25 may turn within the eyes 28 and the eye 28 may also pivot within the collar 39. Thus, a substantially universal joint connection is afforded so that the head rest 24 may readily flex in any directionand thereby provide a high degree of comfort for the user.
Obviously the head rest can be adjusted in any desired manner so that it may be raised or lowered to suit any particular user. Some users will be short from the waist up and others maybe much longer. In any event the head rest can be adjusted so that it will be at the correct point for use.
It will be understood that at the time that an individual is going to use the chair or chaise longue, say for the purpose of sitting under a drier, the head rest will be adjusted up or down by permitting the staff 12 to slide through the clamp 14*. Also the rods 16 are slid in or out and are secured at the selected position by the bolt 18.
It will be understood that from time to time minor changes in the exact construction of the head rest may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the appended claims.
I claim:
1. In a head rest, a stall?" extending from a chair back, a right angle bend in said staff at the end thereof remote from said chair, resilient rods secured to the bent end of said staff, a bow secured at its approximate center to said rods, eye bolts secured to said how at its ends, and a pliable strip extending between the ends of said how, said pliable strip having transverse pins at its ends and adapted to pass through said eye bolts.
2. A head rest including a staff extending from a chair back, a right angle bend in said staff at the end thereof remote from said chair, resilient rods secured to the bent end of said staff, an arcuately shaped bow secured at its approximate center to said rods, collars secured to the ends of said how, eye bolts pivotally secured to said collars, and a flexible strip extending between the ends of said how and secured thereto by pintles which pass through said strip and the eye bolts.
3. A head rest including a staff extending upwardly from a chair back, bent resilient rods extending upwardly from said staff, an arcuately shaped bow secured at its approximate center to said rods, collars secured to the ends of said bow, eye bolts pivotally secured to said collars and extending toward the concave edge of said how, and a flexible strip extending between the eye bolts and secured thereto by pintles passing through the strip and the eye bolts.
