Adjustable Hair Holding Device
US Patent:
7950401, May 31, 2011
Filed:
Jan 23, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/764237
Inventors:
Bruce A. Rogers - Philadelphia PA, US
David Livingston - Pennsburg PA, US
David Livingston - Pennsburg PA, US
International Classification:
A45D 8/20, A45D 8/00
US Classification:
132277, 132276
Abstract:
A hair holding device including hingedly connected first and second body members each including hair gripping portions adapted to be squeezed by a user whereby the hair gripping portions come into contact with gathered strands of a user's hair. The device further includes a friction-type adjustment mechanism coaxially arranged with respect to the hinge for causing the hair gripping portions to remain at a point at which the hair gripping portions are squeezed together by a user. Optionally, the device may include squeezable release handles or other release mechanism, as well as a torsion spring for biasing the hair gripping portions into either an open or a closed position.
Hair Holding Device With Concealed Spring
US Patent:
2004015, Aug 12, 2004
Filed:
Feb 2, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/770060
Inventors:
Bruce Rogers - Philadelphia PA, US
David Livingston - Pennsburg PA, US
David Livingston - Pennsburg PA, US
International Classification:
A45D008/20
US Classification:
132/277000
Abstract:
A hair holding device and spring concealment mechanism including a pair of opposed, hingedly connected body members adapted to pivot about a hinge axis between closed and open positions. A torsion biasing spring biases the device into a predetermined position. The spring is concealed in multiple casings, which are unattached to either body member of the hair holding device. The casings do not bear any torque exerted by the spring and do not encase the entireties of the spring's first and second projecting arms. Consequently, they can be made relatively thin-walled and compact to closely conform to the size and shape of the coil portion of the spring. The thin walls and small diameter of the spring casings minimize the extent to which the casings protrude from the hair holding device, thereby improving its aesthetic appeal.
Hair Band System With Storage And Display Device
US Patent:
6276369, Aug 21, 2001
Filed:
Oct 9, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/169346
Inventors:
Bruce Rogers - Philadelphia PA
International Classification:
A45D 804, A45D 812, A41G 300
US Classification:
132273
Abstract:
A novel hair band is disclosed. The novel hair band comprises a tube having a pre-determined diameter and having a pre-determined length, said tube being constructed with 140 denier lycra wrapped in a 40 denier nylon, said tube being be rolled from both sides so as to form a hair band having two rings. In another embodiment, the invention comprises a system for storing a plurality of hair bands comprising a cylindrical member having a pre-determined outside diameter and having a sufficient length to hold a plurality of hair bands to the exterior of said cylindrical member.

Hair Holding Device With Elastic Closure Operation
US Patent:
8225802, Jul 24, 2012
Filed:
Mar 9, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/720198
Inventors:
Bruce A. Rogers - Philadelphia PA, US
International Classification:
A45D 8/20, A45D 8/00
US Classification:
132277, 132276
Abstract:
Novel hair holding devices having first and second pivotally connected body members including hair gripping portions, and methods for improving existing such hair holding devices, in which the improvement involves providing the first and second body members with at least one elastomeric member for biasing the first and second body members into a closed position and for conforming to gathered strands of a user's hair when the hair gripping portions come into contact with gathered strands of a user's hair.
