Definitions

  • the present invention relates to pliers, in particular pliers hair.
  • a hair clip includes two more or more clip elements less comb-shaped, pivotally mounted relative to each other around an axis, and a spring piece tending to rotate these two elements to the closed position of the clamp.
  • Each of the clamp elements includes a part specific to grasping hair, especially with teeth, and part of maneuver. These operating parts of the two clamp elements diverge from each other so that they can be brought together in order to remove the two parts suitable for gripping the hair.
  • the pivoting of the two clamp elements is carried out by means of pairs of legs integral with these elements, which are pierced with holes, and an axis crossing the holes of these different legs.
  • the spring piece is frequently made up of a "hairpin” spring, the central winding of which is crossed by said axis and each of the end branches of which bears against one clamp elements.
  • the spring piece is made of material rigid synthetic or metal, and has a U shape. Both lateral branches of this part bear against the elements of clamp while the central branch is deformed by bending when the clamp members are pivoted to open the clamp.
  • Metal springs also have the disadvantage of being corrode, and U-shaped spring pieces have the disadvantage to impose the passage of their lateral branches on the outer faces of the aforementioned operating parts, which gives the pliers an appearance unfavorable visual.
  • the spring parts made of synthetic material have also the disadvantage of risking breaking by constraint excessive or by fatigue of said synthetic material.
  • the present invention aims to remedy these various disadvantages, by providing a clip, in particular a hair clip, which is particularly easy and quick to manufacture, without altering in any way way the clamp works and without affecting the visual appearance of this clamp.
  • This spring-forming part thus extends transversely by relative to the clamp elements, by being fixed to the latter by its extremities.
  • this part forming a spring gradually compresses and engages in said space delimited by two legs located inside the other two legs. This commitment allows the erasure of this part forming a spring, thus making it possible a wide opening of the clamp.
  • the two innermost legs guide said part forming a spring during its deformation, and prevent any lateral deformation of the latter, which would be harmful the clamp works properly.
  • This spring-forming part is particularly simple to manufacture and set up, which significantly facilitates assembly of the clamp.
  • the part forming a spring may also have different decorative forms.
  • this spring-forming part has a part relatively thick central and tapered end portions. This form turns out to be perfectly satisfactory.
  • the adjacent legs of the clamp members could include holes and be connected to each other by axes driven to the through these holes; preferably, however, one of these legs includes a journal while the other tab includes a receiving hole this pivot pin, and said spring piece has a width as adjusted to the distance between the two legs located inside the other two legs.
  • the pivoting assembly of the two elements is thus achieved simply by engaging the two pins in the two holes corresponding, and the part forming a spring makes it possible to maintain the spacing of the two legs located inside the other two legs, so that these two legs remain in any event in engagement with the two outermost legs.
  • the part forming a spring thus plays a role of locking the assembly of the two elements.
  • the two legs of a clamp element include the pins while the two legs of the other clamp element include the holes.
  • This structure allows, taking advantage of the relative flexibility of the synthetic material from which the clamp elements are molded, assemble the two clamp elements by snap-fastening.
  • each clamp member includes a boss defining a stop face parallel to the pivot axis of the clamp elements and includes a cavity located at the foot of this face, while each end of the spring piece includes an end face suitable for lean against said stop face and a stud suitable for being engaged in said cavity.
  • FIGS. 1 to 4 represent a hair clip 1, comprising two clamp elements 2 pivotally mounted one relative to the other, and a part forming a spring 3 tending to rotate these two elements 2 towards the closed position of the clamp 1.
  • Each of these elements 2 includes a part 4 suitable for grasping the hair, provided with teeth 5, 6, and an operating part 7.
  • each element 2 comprises teeth 5 delimiting central openings, which are alternated with teeth 6 tapered, that is to say devoid of such openings, teeth 5 and 6 being offset from one element 2 to the other, so that they intersect and interpenetrate in at least the closed position partial of the clamp 1, to ensure the retention of the hair between them.
  • the parts 7 have a decorative shape and diverge from one of the other away from the pivot axis of the elements 2, so as to define sufficient clearance between them to allow pivoting of these elements 2 in the open position of the clamp 1.
  • an element 2 comprises at at least two parallel legs 10, located at a distance from each other, and provided with coaxial pins 11 projecting from the outer faces of said legs 10, while the other element 2 comprises two legs parallels 12, separated from each other by a distance slightly greater than that separating the external faces of the legs 10, and comprising holes 13 suitable for receiving the pivot pins 11.
  • each element 2 comprises, on the internal face of the part 7 and facing, in a transverse direction, the delimited space by the legs 10 between them, a boss 15 of triangular profile and a cavity arranged at the foot of this boss 15, in the wall of this part 7.
  • Each boss 15 delimits, in the direction of the other element, a face 15a substantially perpendicular to the face of the part 7.
  • Legs 10, 12, trunnions 11, holes 13, bosses 15 and said cavities are arranged at the same time as the elements 2, by the same operation of molding a synthetic material.
  • the part 3 is constituted by an elongated block of flexible material and elastic.
  • This part 3 has a relatively thick central part and more or less tapered end portions, terminated by faces transverse. Its length is slightly greater than the distance separating the faces 15a and has a width corresponding to the distance separating the internal faces of the legs 10.
  • this part 2 comprises two studs 20 projecting from its underside.
  • the pivoting mounting of the two elements 2 is produced by snap-fastening of the pins 11 in the holes 13, this snap being made possible by playing on the relative flexibility elastic of the material constituting the legs 10 and 12.
  • the part 3 is then placed on these elements 2 by engagement, with friction, studs 20 in the cavities arranged at the foot of the bosses 15, while the end faces of this part 3 come in support against the faces 15a of these same bosses 15 and that the part central part 3 is engaged closely between the internal faces of the legs 10.
  • the part 3 Due to its aforementioned length, the part 3 is slightly compressed longitudinally once placed on the elements 2, and thus tends to rotate the elements 2 towards the closed position of the clamp 1.
  • the width of this same piece 3 prevents it mutual approximation of the legs 10, which could lead to a exhaust of one or both of the pins 11, out of the hole or holes 13, and thus makes it possible to overcome any imprecision of form resulting from manufacturing tolerances of such pliers 1.
  • the piece 3 compresses and gradually engages in the defined space by the internal faces of the legs 10, so that it disappears gradually and that it allows a wide opening of the clamp 1, as shown in Figure 4.
  • the two legs 10 contain the part 3 laterally during this movement, and thus prevent any lateral deformation which would be detrimental to the proper functioning of the clamp 1 or which could lead to an escape of the studs 20 from the cavities who receive them.
  • Figures 5 to 11 show that the part 3 can have many different forms, and that it can in particular understand a decorative exterior, which can be integrated into the decorative aspect parts 7.
  • this part 3 In its neutral form, this part 3 can be substantially straight, as shown in Figures 5 to 9, or may have a shape in V, as shown in Figures 10 and 11, producing a restoring force less than a straight 3 piece.
  • a flexible spacer 25 can be designed to give nerve to this part 3, as shown in Figure 11.
  • the bosses 15 delimit faces adapted to the particular shapes of the ends of the part 3.
