Abstract: A comb for the treatment of pediculosis, comprising a grip handle and a plurality of teeth intended to catch and drag the nits and lice present in the hair, wherein the teeth have a proximal end retained in said handle and a free distal end, said teeth being differentiated into a first plurality of teeth and a second plurality of teeth, where the teeth of the first plurality alternate with the teeth of the second plurality and the teeth of said first plurality are longer than the teeth of said second plurality so that the distal ends of the teeth of the first plurality are projected beyond the distal ends of the teeth of said second plurality.

Abstract: A comb for treating pediculosis id provided. The comb may include a handle and a plurality of teeth, each provided with successive ridges or grooves intended for trapping and removing nits and lice from the hair, wherein each ridge or groove is flanked by a raised edge on at least one of the sides thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a cleaning comb with needles that are rugged on their peripheral surface and a method of manufacturing a high mechanical strength cleaning comb. The comb includes a plurality of needles arranged parallel to each other with a spacing of under 100 .mu.m, which are rugged on their peripheral surface for the purpose of more effectively removing foreign elements and smaller particles attached. The needles have a total length and a useful length, i.e. a relatively large portion that protrudes from the handle, and they have a diameter of over 1 mm. In order to give the comb a high mechanical strength, the method of assembling the comb includes attaching the needles onto the handle preferably by laser welding or soft soldering. The ruggedness on the peripheral surface is provided by cutting an helical groove or several parallel circumferential grooves.
