Abstract
Description
Technical field
[0001] The present utility model relates to comb devices. Background technology
[0002] Maintaining a neat and clean appearance is extremely important in terms of etiquette. Appropriate clothing not only makes you look fresher and more well-groomed, but also leaves a good impression on others. Hair plays a significant role in this. Therefore, clothing and overall appearance, from head to toe, should always begin with hair care. If your hair is messy, you should comb it with a hairbrush and tidy it up.
[0003] The basic structure of the hair comb 1 existing in the prior art (see [ Fig. 1]) consists in that a comb body 12 with a suitable surface is attached to the front end of the comb handle 11, with several comb teeth 13 mounted on the comb body 12. When using the hair comb 1, the comb handle 11 of the hair comb 1 is held in the hand, and the comb teeth 13 of the comb body 12 are guided towards the scalp, moving the hair comb 1 along the direction of hair growth. This allows the hair to be combed more smoothly and neatly, and tangles in the hair to be removed.
[0004] However, according to the state of the art, the comb teeth 13 of the existing hair comb 1 are usually designed as a rod-shaped structure with a round cross-section (see [ Fig. 2]). When combing hair or similar items, the round shape of the bristles, due to insufficient friction, makes it difficult to style the hair quickly. Only through repeated and persistent combing can the hair be painstakingly styled.
[0005] Furthermore, the problem lies in the fact that the comb teeth 13 of the conventional hair comb 1 usually have an elongated structure with a round cross-section, which results in insufficient circumferential stability and prevents them from achieving high toughness. This leads to the comb teeth 13 of the conventional hair comb 1 gradually bending and deforming after a short period of use. This problem is to be further improved in the present utility model.
[0006] In light of this, the inventor, based on the aforementioned reasons and his many years of experience in this field, conducted intensive research and considered practical application. In the spirit of continuous improvement, and after numerous trials and experiments, a comb tool with a polygonal comb tine structure was finally developed to effectively solve the aforementioned problems. Content of the utility model
[0007] The main objective of this utility model is to provide a structurally relatively simple, reliable comb tool that can achieve improved fixation.
[0008] To solve the aforementioned technical problems, the present utility model provides a comb tool with a polygonal comb tine structure, wherein the comb tines have a polygonal cross-sectional shape in the form of a rod-shaped structural body.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the comb teeth have a triangular cross-sectional shape in the form of a rod-shaped structural body.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the comb teeth have a hexagonal cross-sectional shape in the form of a rod-shaped structural body.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the comb teeth have an octagonal cross-sectional shape in the form of a rod-shaped structural body.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the polygonal rod-shaped structural body is an equilateral or non-equilateral polygonal rod-shaped structural body.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the comb teeth are made of a plastic compound.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the plastic compound is nylon or polybutylene terephthalate.
[0015] Compared to the prior art, the technical solution of the present utility model has the following advantageous effects: The present utility model provides a combing tool with a polygonal comb tine structure, wherein the comb tines, made of plastic composite materials, have a polygonal cross-sectional shape in the form of a rod-shaped structural body. By utilizing the properties of this polygonal rod-shaped structural body of the comb tines, a better shaping of the combed material, such as hair, can be achieved during combing, resulting in an overall improved combing effect.
[0016] The present utility model provides a comb tool with a polygonal comb tine structure, the comb tines having greater toughness due to their polygonal shape, which further prevents deformation. At the same time, the polygonal shape allows light to be refracted more strongly by the comb tines, causing them to appear in vibrant colors.

[0021] This embodiment primarily provides a combing tool whose comb teeth are formed within a polygonal, rod-shaped structural body, thereby improving the shaping of the material being combed and thus achieving a better combing result. As in Fig. 3. A hair comb without a handle is used as an example.
[0022] The comb tool 2 of this embodiment comprises a comb body 21, on which several comb teeth 22 are arranged. As a simple alternative to this embodiment, a hair comb with a handle can also be used.
[0023] The comb teeth 22, made of plastic composite material, have a rod-shaped structural body with a polygonal cross-sectional design around their circumference. This polygonal design increases friction between the material being combed, such as hair, and the comb teeth 22 during daily use. This allows for quick styling without the time-consuming and tedious process of repeatedly combing, as with conventional combs, to achieve the desired style. This results in an overall better combing outcome.
[0024] Furthermore, according to this embodiment, the comb tool 2 can achieve greater circumferential support force and toughness due to the polygonal circumferential shape of the comb teeth 22 compared to the circular circumferential structure of the comb teeth 22 in the prior art. This further improves the durability of the comb teeth 22, thus preventing deformation by bending, as occurs with the comb teeth of conventional hair combs after a short period of use.
[0025] Furthermore, according to this embodiment, the comb tool 2 can achieve a stronger refraction of light due to the polygonal circumference of the comb teeth 22 compared to the round circumference of the comb teeth 22 in the prior art, whereby all comb teeth 22 appear in bright colors under the light source and the aesthetics and uniqueness of the comb tool 2 of this embodiment are increased.
[0026] Accordingly, the comb tool 2 of this utility model can utilize the aforementioned structure. In practice, a triangular, rod-shaped structural body is attached to the circumference of the comb teeth 22 (see Fig. 4), a hexagonal rod-shaped structural body (see Fig. 5), an octagonal rod-shaped structural body (see Fig. 6) or an irregular polygonal rod-shaped structural body (see Fig. 7) are considered preferred.
[0027] Furthermore, to improve the comfort and robustness of the comb teeth 22 of the comb tool 2 according to this embodiment, it is proposed that the comb teeth 22 be made of a plastic composite material, wherein this plastic composite material is nylon or polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) or another plastic composite material that can be used as a material for the comb teeth.
[0028] Naturally, the comb tool 2 used in the present embodiment can be used in a relatively wide range of applications, not only as a hair comb, but also as a scalp massage comb, animal hair comb, etc., which simultaneously increases the practicality and applicability of the comb tool 2 of this utility model.
[0029] In contrast to prior art hair comb structures, the comb tool disclosed in this embodiment primarily utilizes the property of comb teeth with a polygonal tooth structure. This allows for better shaping of the combed material, such as hair, during combing, resulting in an overall improved combing effect. Simultaneously, light is refracted more strongly by the comb teeth, causing them to appear in vibrant colors under the light source, and the increased toughness of the comb teeth further prevents deformation.
[0030] The present invention can be summarized as follows: The present utility model provides a combing tool with a polygonal comb tine structure, wherein the comb tines have a polygonal cross-sectional shape in the form of a rod-shaped structural body. By utilizing the properties of this polygonal rod-shaped structural body of the comb tines, better shaping of the combed material, such as hair, can be achieved during combing, resulting in an overall improved combing effect. Simultaneously, light can be refracted more strongly at the comb tines, causing them to appear in vibrant colors, and the comb tines acquire greater toughness, which further prevents deformation of the comb tines.
[0031] The above-mentioned embodiments merely represent preferred specific embodiments of the present utility model; however, the conceptual design of the utility model is not limited to these. Anyone who makes non-essential modifications using this concept within the technical framework specified in the scope of disclosure of the utility model infringes the scope of protection of the present utility model.
