  • Patent number: 7886750
    Abstract: Hair clip comprising two shells (1, 3) provided with claws (5, 7) which are at the front of the clip and pivot relative to one another around two shell hinges (8-12) which extend in the same axial direction (A) at the rear of the clip, from a closure position in which the claws (5, 7) are brought together or even intersect, in order to grip the hair trapped by the claws, to an opening position in which the claws are spaced apart against the deformation of a resilient return means (13, 131, 132) which tends to return the shells (1, 3) to the closure position, and comprising a support plate (17) which is designed to receive for example a jewel and two lugs (19-22) which support the support plate (17) above the two shells (1, 3) in the closure position.

  • Publication number: 20100108090
    Abstract: Hair grip comprising two jaws (1, 3) articulated about a joint (61, 62; 81, 82; 54; 29) for relative displacement into an open or closed position and a connection (11, 12) joining each jaw to exert a return force by a deformation in elongation against the displacement of the two jaws from the closed position to the open position in order to return the two jaws to the closed position. According to the invention the joint is provided with a passage to permit the connection (11, 12) to cross the joint once the two jaws are displaced from the closed position to the open position to exert a return force for returning the two jaws to the open position. Preferably the connection (12) is housed in two joint supports (131, 151) fixed to the jaws by two feet (133, 153) and joined together by two heads (135, 155) extending in a joint direction (A), above the feet (133, 153) to mask the connection (12) in the closed position.

  • Patent number: 7631649
    Abstract: Hair grip comprising two jaws (1, 3) articulated about a joint (61, 62; 81, 82; 54; 29) for relative displacement into an open or closed position and a connection (11) joining each jaw to exert a return force by a deformation in elongation against the displacement of the two jaws from the closed position to the open position in order to return the two jaws to the closed position. According to the invention, the connection is produced in an elastomer material having a Shore A hardness of between 60 and 90 and the two jaws (1, 3) are provided with perforations (22, 24) through which the connection (11) is introduced at one free end to be fixed to the two jaws by fixing means. Preferably the fixing means consist of an attached part engaging the free end of the connection (11), more preferably a U-shaped clip.
