ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a hair winding device for use in hair permanent process, and particularly to a hair winding device for use in special hair permanent process such as spiral permanent etc.
2. Description of the Background Art
FIG. 7
is a diagram schematically showing the structure of the hair winding device for use in hair permanent process described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,865,193.
Referring to this diagram, the body
17
to be held with the hand contains a motor
21
inside, and the motor
21
has a motor shaft
22
to which a rod engaging member
61
is detachably connected. The motor
21
is driven when a switch (not shown) is depressed and then the rod engaging member
61
is driven and starts rotating through the motor shaft
22
.
FIG. 8
is a diagram showing the perm-dressing hair winding device of
FIG. 7
with a perm-dressing rod
62
attached to the rod engaging member
61
.
Referring to this diagram, the motor
21
in the body
17
is driven to cause the rod
62
to rotate, and thus the hair to be processed can be wound on the rod
62
in a shorter time than by handwork. In this way, even an unskilled person can easily wind hair in a short time prior to the application of a cold permanent
71
to curl the hair as shown in FIG.
9
.
However, although the perm-dressing hair winding device described above is useful for common permanent waves, it is difficult to use this hair winding device in the process of applying a special permanent such as the spiral permanent.
FIG. 10
shows hair processed by a spiral permanent.
Referring to the diagram, the process of applying such a spiral permanent wave
72
includes: slicing the hair in blocks, twisting every several tens of the sliced hairs into a strand, further twisting every several strands together as shown in the diagram, and applying a permanent treatment to the hair.
While applying the spiral permanent requires the process of twisting the hair, the perm-dressing hair winding device can only wind the hair in a given direction. Accordingly, when applying a special permanent such as the spiral permanent that requires twisting the hair or winding the hair into small spirals, the preparatory process must be performed manually, which is actually a time-consuming work even for a skilled worker.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention has been made to solve the problems described above, and an object of the invention is to provide a hair winding device for use in hair permanent process which allows accurate hairdressing to be done in a shorter time in the process of applying a special permanent like spiral permanent that requires twisting hair, for example.
To achieve the object above, a hair winding device for use in hair permanent process according to a first aspect of the invention comprises: holding means for holding end of hair to be processed; and rotating means for rotating the holding means in such a direction that the held hair is twisted.
With this structure, the hair can be twisted between the roots and the ends.
According to a hair winding device for use in hair permanent process of a second aspect of the invention, in the structure of the first aspect, the holding means comprises a clip, the clip including a first holding member, a second holding member connected to the first holding member through a shaft and capable of turning on the shaft, and energizing means for energizing the first holding member and the second holding member in such a direction that their respective ends are pressed against each other, the first holding member being connected to the rotating means so that the first holding member rotates around its own axial direction.
With this structure, the end of the hair is held between the end of the first holding member of the clip and the end of the second holding member and the hair is twisted in this condition.
According to a hair winding device for use in hair permanent process of a third aspect of the invention, in the structure of the second aspect, the rotating means comprises a motor and a rotating member connected to a rotating shaft of the motor, and the first holding member is connected to the rotating member with its center of rotation aligned with the axis of rotation of the rotating member.
With this structure, the held hair can be twisted in the held position without shaking.
According to a hair winding device for use in hair permanent process of a fourth aspect of the invention, in the structure of the second aspect or the third aspect, the ends of the first holding member and the second holding member are covered with caps composed of an elastic material to more tightly hold the hair.
With this structure, the hair can be held by the clip more tightly.
According to a fifth aspect of the invention, a hair winding device for use in hair permanent process comprises: rod-like winding means on which hair to be processed can be spirally wound; holding means for holding an end of the winding means; and rotating means for rotating the holding means so as to rotate the held winding means around its own axis.
With this structure, the hair can be spirally and continuously wound on the winding means.
According to a sixth aspect of the invention, a hair winding device for use in hair permanent process for holding hair to be processed and twisting the hair comprises: a clip comprising a first holding member and a second holding member connected to the first holding member through a shaft and capable of turning on the shaft, and energized in such a direction that their respective ends are pressed against each other; a rotating member connected to the first holding member with its axis of rotation aligned with the axis of the first holding member; and a motor for rotating the rotating member.
With this structure, the hair can be held between the end of the first holding member and the end of the second holding member of the clip and twisted in this condition.
As stated above, according to the hair winding device for use in hair permanent process of the first aspect, the hair can be twisted between the roots and the ends and thus the hair can be twisted in a stable manner.
According to the hair winding device for use in hair permanent process of the second aspect, in addition to the effect of the first aspect, the rotating power of the rotating means can be effectively transferred through the first holding member in such a direction that the hair is twisted.
According to the hair winding device for use in hair permanent process of the third aspect, in addition to the effect of the second aspect, the held hair can be twisted in that position without shaking, and thus the hair can be twisted in a more stable manner.
According to the hair winding device for use in hair permanent process of the fourth aspect, in addition to the effect of the second aspect or the third aspect, the clip can hold the hair more tightly so that the hair can be twisted under stable tension, which enables the hair to be arranged more neatly.
According to the hair winding device for use in hair permanent process of the fifth aspect, the hair can be wound on the winding means spirally and continuously, so that the hair can be wound into spirals with desired winding diameter in a shorter time and in a stable manner.
According to the hair winding device for use in hair permanent process of the sixth aspect, the rotating power of the motor can be transferred to the first holding member through the rotating member so that the held hair can be twisted in a stable manner.
These and other objects, features, aspects and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of the present invention when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
