ABSTRACT:

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to storage and plug-in outlets for hair implement devices and more particularly pertains to a new portable hair salon station for maintaining a clean work station and for preventing the entanglement of power cords.
2. Description of the Prior Art
The use of storage and plug-in outlets for hair implement devices is known in the prior art. More specifically, storage and plug-in outlets for hair implement devices heretofore devised and utilized are known to consist basically of familiar, expected and obvious structural configurations, notwithstanding the myriad of designs encompassed by the crowded prior art which have been developed for the fulfillment of countless objectives and requirements.
Known prior art includes U.S. Pat. No. 5,547,393; U.S. Pat. No. 5,124,532; U.S. Pat. No. D256,637; U.S. Pat. No. 3,566,332; U.S. Pat. No. D360,282; and U.S. Pat. No. 5,054,615.
While these devices fulfill their respective, particular objectives and requirements, the aforementioned patents do not disclose a new portable hair salon station. The inventive device includes a multi-sided box-like member having a plurality of slots in an upper/frontal side and further having a plurality of rotatable shafts journaled to and disposed inside the box-like member, and a plurality of spring-loaded spools wound with electrical power cords and being mounted about the shafts. Each electrical power cord has an adapter outlet plug connected to an exposed end thereof, and is extended and unwindable through a respective slot. A plurality of cylindrical containers each having an open top and a closed bottom and an arcuate flange about the top, are removeably disposed in a selected number of slots for receiving and storing certain hair tools. In addition, there are two recesses each of which is disposed proximately to a slot for a respective outlet plug and each of which has a latch member slidably disposed therein and engageable to a respective outlet plug. Also, there are a pair of electrical outlet members disposed in a lower front side of the box-like member.
In these respects, the portable hair salon station according to the present invention substantially departs from the conventional concepts and designs of the prior art, and in so doing provides an apparatus primarily developed for the purpose of maintaining a clean work station and for preventing the entanglement of power cords.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known types of storage and plug-in outlets for hair implement devices now present in the prior art, the present invention provides a new portable hair salon station construction wherein the same can be utilized for maintaining a clean work station and for preventing the entanglement of power cords.
The general purpose of the present invention, which will be described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide a new portable hair salon station which has many of the advantages of the storage and plug-in outlets for hair implement devices mentioned heretofore and many novel features that result in a new portable hair salon station which is not anticipated, rendered obvious, suggested, or even implied by any of the prior art storage and plug-in outlets for hair implement devices, either alone or in any combination thereof.
To attain this, the present invention generally comprises a multi-sided box-like member having a plurality of slots in an upper/frontal side and further having a plurality of rotatable shafts journaled to and disposed inside the box-like member, and a plurality of spring-loaded spools wound with electrical power cords and being mounted about the shafts. Each electrical power cord has an adapter outlet plug connected to an exposed end thereof, and is extended and unwindable through a respective slot. A plurality of cylindrical containers each having an open top and a closed bottom and an arcuate flange about the top, are removeably disposed in a selected number of slots for receiving and storing certain hair tools. In addition, there are two recesses each of which is disposed proximately to a respective slot for an outlet plug and each of which has a latch member slidably disposed therein and engageable to a respective outlet plug. Also, there are a pair of electrical outlet members disposed in a lower front side of the box-like member.
There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the invention in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional features of the invention that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
In this respect, before explaining at least one embodiment of the invention in detail, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited in its application to the details of construction and to the arrangements of the components set forth in the following description or illustrated in the drawings. The invention is capable of other embodiments and of being practiced and carried out in various ways. Also, it is to be understood that the phraseology and terminology employed herein are for the purpose of description and should not be regarded as limiting.
As such, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the conception, upon which this disclosure is based, may readily be utilized as a basis for the designing of other structures, methods and systems for carrying out the several purposes of the present invention. It is important, therefore, that the claims be regarded as including such equivalent constructions insofar as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
Further, the purpose of the foregoing abstract is to enable the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and the public generally, and especially the scientists, engineers and practitioners in the art who are not familiar with patent or legal terms or phraseology, to determine quickly from a cursory inspection the nature and essence of the technical disclosure of the application. The abstract is neither intended to define the invention of the application, which is measured by the claims, nor is it intended to be limiting as to the scope of the invention in any way.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a new portable hair salon station which has many of the advantages of the storage and plug-in outlets for hair implement devices mentioned heretofore and many novel features that result in a new portable hair salon station which is not anticipated, rendered obvious, suggested, or even implied by any of the prior art storage and plug-in outlets for hair implement devices, either alone or in any combination thereof.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a new portable hair salon station which may be easily and efficiently manufactured and marketed.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a new portable hair salon station which is of a durable and reliable construction.
An even further object of the present invention is to provide a new portable hair salon station which is susceptible of a low cost of manufacture with regard to both materials and labor, and which accordingly is then susceptible of low prices of sale to the consuming public, thereby making such portable hair salon station economically available to the buying public.
Still yet another object of the present invention is to provide a new portable hair salon station which provides in the apparatuses and methods of the prior art some of the advantages thereof, while simultaneously overcoming some of the disadvantages normally associated therewith.
Still another object of the present invention is to provide a new portable hair salon station for maintaining a clean work station and for preventing the entanglement of power cords.
Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a new portable hair salon sta
