RESILIENT HAIR CLIP
The present invention provides a resilient hair clip that is basically an integral elastic hair clip body made of soft and tenacious material with features of relatively simpler structure and easier manipulation than that of conventional resilient hair clip. The resilient hair clip comprises an internal margin rim and an outer thick hoop integrally surrounds thereon. The internal margin rim encompasses an internal disk, a central hole, plural divergent slits formed outwardly from the central hole and plural convergent clipping fins disposed between adjacent divergent slits. For manipulation, the elastic hair clip body is firstly squeezed to let divergent slits deform to open more while hold the hairs or a bundle of hair to be clipped therein; and then release it to let the convergent clipping fins clip the hairs or a bundle of hair by resilience thereof.
The present invention provides a resilient hair clip, particularly for one that is made of soft and tenacious material with features of relatively simpler structure and easier manipulation than that of conventional resilient hair clip.
PRIOR ARTS OF THE INVENTIONGenerally speaking, different conventional hairdressing devices such as hairpin, hairclip, hair-hoop, hair-ring, rubber-band, hair-roller and hair neatening tool are used by women to do their hairdressing jobs or to shape their hairdos. For these conventional hairdressing devices of hairpin, hairclip, hair-hoop, hair-roller and hair neatening tool, if the material is not suitable or structure is against the rules of the ergonomics, the uncomfortable and painful feelings can be incurred to the users. Besides, for these conventional hairdressing devices of hair-ring and rubber-band, several rings are usually needed to bundle the hairs properly and that results in troublesome job and dull hairdo.
Accordingly, having addressed on the drawbacks in the foregoing conventional hairdressing devices, the inventor of the present invention is eager to work out a solution by his professional design and fabrication experiences. After comprehensive researching and developing consideration as well as many testing experiments, eventually the resilient hair clip of the present invention featuring relatively simpler structure and easier manipulation than that of the foregoing conventional hairdressing devices is successfully worked out.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONThe basic object of the present invention is to provide a resilient hair clip, which is basically an integral elastic hair clip body that comprises an internal margin rim and an outer thick hoop, wherein said internal margin rim encompasses an internal disk, a central hole, plural divergent slits formed outwardly from the central hole and plural convergent clipping fins disposed between adjacent divergent slits; and said outer thick hoop integrally surrounds the internal margin rim.
The further object of the present invention is to provide a resilient hair clip as recited above, wherein the thickness of said outer thick hoop is slightly larger than that of said internal margin rim.
The other object of the present invention is to provide a resilient hair clip as recited above, wherein the cross section for said internal disk of the internal margin rim is either in camber manner or in planar manner.
For manipulation, the elastic hair clip body is firstly squeezed to let divergent slits deform to open more while hold the hairs or a bundle of hair to be clipped therein; and then release it to let the convergent clipping fins clip the hairs or a bundle of hair by resilience thereof.
Please refer to
The resilient hair clip is basically an integral elastic hair clip body 1 that comprises an internal margin rim 11 and an outer thick hoop 12, wherein said internal margin rim 11 encompasses an internal disk 111, a central hole 112, plural divergent slits 113 formed outwardly from the central hole 112 and plural convergent clipping fins 114 disposed between adjacent divergent slits 113; and said outer thick hoop 12 integrally surrounds the internal margin rim 11.
In the foregoing first embodiment for the resilient hair clip of the present invention, the material of said elastic hair clip body 1 is preferably a soft and tenacious material.
Besides, the configuration of the plural divergent slits 113 appear in convoluted manner. Whereas, the configuration of the plural divergent slits 113 is S-shaped profile of curved structure in
Please refer to
For aesthetic purpose, tile overall pattern of the elastic hair clip body 1 including configuration of the internal margin rim 11 and outer thick hoop 12 can be adapted to any suitable geometric pattern as the third embodiment of the present invention shown in
For manipulating the resilient hair clip of the present invention, please refer to
Firstly, put hairs or a bundle of hair into the hair accommodating cord 31 of the hair clustering tool 3;
Secondly, align the handling rod 32 of the hair clustering tool 3 with the central hole 112 of the elastic hair clip body 1 (as shown in
Thirdly, upwardly slide the elastic hair clip body 1 along the hair accommodating cord 31 of the hair clustering tool 3 (as the upwards arrowhead shown in
Fourthly, let the elastic hair clip body 1 slide upwardly up to touch the hairs or a bundle of hair to be clipped while pull the hair accommodating cord 31 of the hair clustering tool 3 downwardly (as the downwards arrowhead shown in
Fifthly, squeeze the elastic hair clip body 1 to let divergent slits 113 deform to open more while hold the hairs or a bundle of hair to be clipped therein (as shown in
Finally, release the elastic hair clip body 1 to let the convergent clipping fins 114 clip the hairs or a bundle of hair by resilience thereof; Thereby, the hairs or a bundle of hair are well clipped by the elastic hair clip body 1 in desired firm manner.
In conclusion, all the exkpected effects and objects can be successfully accomplished by the present invention. Moreover, not only the structure of the present invention, which is riot disclosed publicly, differs from that of the conventional hair clip but also the practicability of the present invention is better than that of the conventional hair clip. Apparently, the present invention indeed has novelty beyond obviousness of the prior arts, which meets the essential criterion of the patentability. Accordingly, we submit the patent application in accordance with related laws.
