ABSTRACT:
An improved and extremely economical brush for hair-brushing and the like folds flat with bristles retracted for pocket carriage; in preferred embodiment the structure includes a plurality of tufts of bristles in unitary ranks, each rank having pivotal connection laterally to opposed walls of an open-top box-shaped casing; a sliding top on the casing has a respective aperture therethrough receiving each tuft; when the top is held at one slidable limit the tufts are pivoted to upright, operative position by the aperture structure, and when the top is held at the other slidable limit, the tufts are folded flat with tips shielded in the apertures by withdrawal into the thickness of the top; lateral extension of the top provides for actuation and a releasible latch holds the top at operative slidable limit.
In a second embodiment a plurality of rubber bristles in unitary ranks is held in similar manner to that described; in both embodiments angling of the aperture in the slidable top assures proper retraction and extension of the bristles, and a choice of brush actions.
