Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Technical Field) The present invention relates to a comb, and more particularly to a comb that can obtain a desired cutting height (length of hair remaining on the scalp) during hair styling.

(Background Art) Conventionally, this type of comb for shaving has been composed of a movable comb and a fixed comb, and by opening the movable comb, a tapered comb (the hair at the hem of the back of the head is shortened, and the hair at a position away from the hem is cut short). There is a known method that gives a predetermined taper when cutting the hair long and styling the hair. However, although it is possible to change the angle of taper mowing, this method has drawbacks such as difficulty in increasing or decreasing the mowing height according to preference.

(Object of the Invention) The present invention has been proposed in view of the above points, and its object is to be able to obtain any cutting height or taper angle with a single comb, and to achieve a desired style. To provide a comb with a simple structure that allows easy hair styling such as taper cutting.

Locking convex portion 1 of base 1
This is to obtain a click action between the

To assemble this, the grooves 1b and 1c of the base 1 must be
After fixing the first comb material 2 to the lower end of the handle with a set screw 3 to make it rotatable, the operating protrusion 5 of the handle 5
b into the window 1e, and the handle 5 is attached to the substrate 1a.
The operating protrusion 5b protruding from the window 1e is press-fitted into the through hole 6a by placing the slide plate 6 against the front side of the substrate 1a.

Next, the second comb material 4 is inserted between the grooves 1b and 1c of the base 1 via the engagement step 4b, and the tip of the operating protrusion 5b protruding from the slide plate 6 is inserted into the second comb material. What is necessary is just to make it engage with the guide recessed part 4c of the back surface of 4. The tips of the comb teeth 4d of the second comb member 4 are engaged with the guide grooves 2e of the first comb member 2. FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the present invention in the assembled state, FIG. 3 is a horizontal sectional view, and FIG. 4 is a vertical sectional view.

Note that both the first and second comb members 2 and 4 are
Although it is planned to be made of a synthetic resin material such as ABS resin, since the curvature of the human head differs depending on the body part and age, the comb of the first comb material 2 is designed to correspond to the curvature. The curved surfaces of the teeth 2c are made to match the part of the head with the smallest curvature or the size of the child's head, and the first and second comb members 2, 4 are made of an elastic material such as rubber or a thin plate, and the comb Both members 2 and 4 may be connected at multiple locations. As a result, the comb teeth 2c of the first comb material 2 are deformed according to the shape of the head, and while the first comb material 2 is brought into close contact with the head, the second comb material 4 is also deformed following this. Because I do,
A desired cutting height can be easily obtained.

To use this, as shown in FIG. 5, the first comb material 2 of the comb according to the present invention is applied to the part of the back of the head to be shaved, and the hair H protruding from the second comb material 4 is combed. All you have to do is cut along the teeth 4d. At this time, the first comb material 2 is rotatable with respect to the base 1, and the second comb material 4 is movable up and down independently of the first comb material 2. The height and degree of taper of the cut portion can be adjusted as desired. That is, the cutting height and the degree of taper of the cutting part are determined by the rotation of the first comb material 2 and the vertical movement of the second comb material 4, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7. Since the length of the hair protruding from the upper surface of the material 4 and the degree of taper vary, it can be adjusted according to each person's preference. In this case,
The first comb material 2 is positioned steplessly by tightening the set screw 3, and the second comb material 4 is positioned by moving the handle 5. In addition, the 8th
The figure shows the AA cross section in FIG.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, since the lower surface of the comb teeth 2c of the first comb material 2 has a convex curved edge that matches the shape of the head, the comb can be easily held even when the comb is placed on the head. will not shift. Moreover, the second comb material 4 is
Since the comb material 2 moves up and down along the guide groove 2e, the two comb materials 2 and 4 do not come apart from each other, and hair can be reliably introduced.

In addition, in FIGS. 6 and 7, H ₁ /H ₂
When the first comb member 2 is rotated so that >h ₁ /h ₂ , the degree of change in the hair cutting height is greater in FIG. 6. In addition, in order to change only the overall cutting height while keeping the change in cutting height constant, it is possible to keep the first comb member 2 fixed and move the second comb member 4.
All you need to do is change the height.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above, according to the present invention, the present invention includes first and second comb members having a large number of comb teeth, and a base that connects the first and second comb members. The first comb material is rotatably attached to the base, the second comb material is attached on top of the first comb material and is movable up and down independently of the first comb material, The upper edge of the first comb material and the upper edge of the second comb material have continuous smooth convex curved edges curved in the same direction, so that a single comb can be used to achieve any desired cutting height or occipital area. Therefore, it is particularly effective for hair styles in which the length is gradually changed, such as sports-cut, and it is possible to achieve the desired hair style extremely easily. has.
