ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a portable folding hairbrush and more particularly, to an improved portable folding hairbrush designed to accomplish a firm fixation of the support bed to the head rim and a smooth operation of the support bed, and have a simple structure suitable for automation of production and to be collaterally usable for massage.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Various types of folding hairbrushes are known in the art. Generally, a grip of the conventional folding hairbrush is designed to be foldable, thereby allowing the hairbrush to be easy to be carried. In such a conventional folding hairbrush, a head rim of such hairbrush is provided with two opposing shafts at its inside edge while the flexible and rectangular support bed of the hairbrush, having bristles, and provided with two holding pipes at the corresponding positions of its outside edge. To connect the support bed to the head rim, two shafts of the head rim are individually inserted into an associated holding pipe of the support bed.
As a result, when the grip is fully folded or unfolded, the support bed is able to be in concave position or in convex postition and simultaneously, the bristles held on the support bed are able to rise or fall for allowing the grip of the hairbrush to be folded completely at an angle of 180°.
However, such a conventional folding hairbrush can be just a simple brushing tool only with the benefit as a portable hairbrush. The support bed is fixed to the head rim only be two sides while the support bed is rectangular having four sides so that the support bed is actually not secure enogh while brushing. Furthermore, the production cost is increased, since the production process is performed by hand due to its structural complexity.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a portable folding hairbrush which eliminates the above problems encountered with conventional folding hairbrushes.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a portable folding hairbrush designed to accomplish a firm fixation of the support bed to the head rim and a smooth operation of the support bed, and have a simple structure suitable for automation of production and to be collaterally usable for massage.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a portable folding hairbrush including a head rim provided with a plurality of guide pins regularly and internally formed along the inside edge of the head rim, a grip connected to the head rim by a hinge and provided with a mirror on its inner portion, a flexible support bed having a plurality of guide holes projected along its edge and being fitted into the head rim by pivoting the guide holes to the guide pins of the head rim to enable the support bed to ascend and descend, and a plurality of hard bristles having pressure beads at the other end of the bristles regularly implanted into the support bed and being held by the support bed at their lower portions.
Still another object of the present invention into provide a portable folding hairbrush including a head rim provided with a plurality of holding sockets regularly and internally formed along the inside edge of the head rim, a grip connected to the head rim by a hinge and provided with a mirror on its inner portion, a flexible support bed having a plurality of support beads projected along its edge and being fitted into the head rim by pivoting the support beads into the holding sockets of the head rim to enable the support bed to ascend and descend; and a plurality of hard bristles having pressure beads at the other end of the bristles regularly implanted into the support bed and being held by the support bed at their lower portions.
Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a portable folding hairbrush which is simple in structure, inexpensive to manufacture, durable in use, and refined in appearance.
Other objects and further scope of applicability of the present invention will become apparent from the detailed description given hereinafter. It should be understood, however, that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating preferred embodiments of the invention, are given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from this detailed description.
