Rubber assembly, comb and method for manufacturing comb

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of daily necessities, and in particular relates to a rubber assembly useful for a comb, a comb comprising the rubber assembly, and a method for manufacturing a comb. In the invention, raised columns are arranged at a back side of a rubber, and the bottom of comb teeth is bent and then fitted into the raised columns by clamping pieces to achieve the fixing of the comb teeth, which can meet the requirements of no easy tangling and firmly fixed comb teeth; and with the structure of a comb handle, a combing surface which is flat and easy to clean can be achieved.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The invention belongs to the technical field of daily necessities, and in particular relates to a rubber assembly useful for a comb, a comb comprising the rubber assembly, and a method for manufacturing a comb.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]A comb is a tool for combing hair, and its types and materials are various. A comb is a common item in people's daily life, which is a very necessary and practical tool for hair care, especially for long hair. Based on traditional combs, combs with many sub-functions and application scenarios have been further developed, one of which includes air-cushion combs.[0003]For an air-cushion comb (also referred to as an airbag comb), comb teeth of the comb are placed on a rubber or other similar flexible materials, a cavity is also formed between the rubber and a comb body, the comb teeth exert a force on the cavity when acting on hair or scalp during use, and since the rubber is soft, air in the cavity is discharged from a...

Benefits of technology

[0012]An object of the invention is to solve the above problems and to provide a new fixing structure for comb teeth of an air-cushion comb, thereby differently solving the problem of tangling in an existing air-cushion comb while ensuring the firm combination of comb teeth and a rubber.

[0013]As a first aspect of the invention, a rubber assembly is provided, which comprises comb teeth and a rubber, wherein several raised columns are arranged at a back side of the rubber, and the bottom of the comb teeth is bent and then fitted into the raised columns by clamping pieces so that the fixing effect of the raised columns with the rubber meets the requirements, and the thickness of the body of the rubber is also not increased so that the overall use effect of the air-cushion comb is not affected; and the raised columns enable relevant fixing structures (i.e. bending of the comb teeth and the clamping pieces) of the comb teeth and the rubber to have sufficient arrangement space, i.e. the combination of the raised columns with the fixing manners of bending and the clamping pieces can also ensure that the fixing strength meets the requirements without affecting the thickness of the rubber.

[0014]As a second aspect of the invention, a comb comprising the rubber assembly is provided, and it is mainly intended to use the rubber assembly on the comb to achieve a non-tangling comb. Moreover, the rubber assembly and a comb handle are connected by an engaging structure and therefore detachable, which is very beneficial in the maintenance of the comb. When curled hair is wound at the root of the comb teeth of the rubber, the hair can only be cleaned manually for a traditional comb, which is very inconvenient, or an additional cleaning assembly is used as described in KR20110085799A, which significantly increases its structural complexity. However, in the comb, the rubber assembly is detachable and hence can be disassembled to form a smooth component, and then the rubber assembly is placed in water with the comb teeth downward, and can be lifted and lowered to allow curled hair to automatically fall off, thus it can be very convenient to clean most of the hair.

[0015]As a third aspect of the invention, a method for manufacturing a comb is provided, wherein the comb manufactured by the method has an ingenious structure and low overall manufacturing cost, can well solve the problem of hair tangling and is also easy to clean; and meanwhile, the comb also completely retains all the functions of a traditional air-cushion comb without any reduction, and with a special comb handle structure, the comb provides a smooth combing surface which has a greater contact area with hair or scalp when hair is combed, which is not available for a traditional air-cushion comb. In addition, the comb also solves the problems with the fixing strength and the safety caused by fixing with glue in a traditional non-tangling comb, and problems such as a weakened massage effect caused by the increase in the thickness of the rubber.

[0016]In the invention, softer comb teeth are selected to solve the problem of hair tangling in a traditional air-cushion comb; and meanwhile, the fixing structure of the comb teeth is redesigned, so that the thickness of the rubber is not increased which would otherwise adversely affect the overall massage effect of the air-cushion comb, and it is also possible to ensure that the comb teeth are firmly and effectively fixed to the rubber, thereby avoiding the problems in use caused by insufficient fixing strength of the comb teeth. Meanwhile, after the rubber assembly is fitted to the comb handle, the rubber assembly is detachable and easy to clean on the one hand, and on the other hand, the body of the combing surface is straight due to the design of the comb handle structure, so that the combing surface has a greater contact area with a user's hair or head.

Problems solved by technology

When curled hair is wound at the root of the comb teeth of the rubber, the hair can only be cleaned manually for a traditional comb, which is very inconvenient, or an additional cleaning assembly is used as described in KR20110085799A, which significantly increases its structural complexity.

In addition, the comb also solves the problems with the fixing strength and the safety caused by fixing with glue in a traditional non-tangling comb, and problems such as a weakened massage effect caused by the increase in the thickness of the rubber.
