  • the outer lug 78 extends outwardly from the plane of the ring 56 when the cover 76 is in the closed position.
  • the outer lug 78 comprises a triangular shaped fin.
  • the outer lug 78 is arranged such that when the filter receptacle 38 is received within the filter holder 36 and the filter holder 36 is moved to the retracted position, the outer lug 78 engages with the inner wall 42 around to the hole 62 to move the cover 76 to the open position.
  • the cover 76 is biased to move towards the closed position, such that when the filter holder 36 is moved to the extended position, the cover 76 moves to the closed position to seal off the filter receptacle 38.
  • the cover 76 includes also one or more internal lugs 80 on an inner side thereof.
  • the internal lugs 80 comprises also triangular shaped fins in the embodiment shown.
  • the internal lugs 80 are provided to engage with an inner surface of the bag 82 to hold the bag 82 in an open position when in use.
  • the comb unit 20 When required for use, the comb unit 20 may be moved to the extended position. In the extended position, the base 28 engages against the inner surface of the elongate lip 32 such that air will be drawn between the base 28 and the second side of the opening 30.
  • the housing 12 is held in the hand and is drawn towards the operator such that the teeth 24 pass through the hair. Lice and eggs captured between the teeth 24 will be caught on a side of the blade 22 adjacent the opening 30 and therefore will be drawn in through the opening 30 and through the hole 62 into the filter receptacle 38 where they will be captured.
  • the comb unit 20 When use has been completed, the comb unit 20 may be moved to the retracted position such that the base 28 seals across the opening 30, thereby preventing escape of any lice.
  • the filter receptacle 38 may be replaced by moving the filter holder 36 to the extended position.
  • the filter receptacle 38 may simply fall downwardly from the filter holder 36 into a bin.
  • the cover 76 of the filter receptacle 38 moves to the closed position as the filter holder 36 is extended to capture lice within the filter receptacle 38 for disposal.
