Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a wig base on which artificial hair or human hair is implanted, and more particularly to an adhesive-type wig base with slits that is attached to the head using an adhesive on the inner side of the wig base. [Background technology]
[0002] There are various methods for attaching a wig to a person's head, including pinning, braiding, tape, and adhesive. The adhesive method involves applying adhesive to the entire surface or periphery of the back surface of the wig base and attaching it to the person's scalp. The adhesive method allows the size of the wig base to be smaller than the braiding and pinning methods. Depending on the type of adhesive, it has a strong adhesive force, so it is more stable to wear than the pinning, braiding, and tape types, and can be used safely in all sports, including swimming.
[0003] Adhesive wigs have a strong adhesive strength that prevents them from coming off even when pulled with strong force. Therefore, compared to the other three types of wigs, it is said that there is no need to worry about the wig coming off in daily life. In addition, continuous wearing is possible for about two weeks to a month without changing the adhesive.
[0004] Therefore, techniques have been proposed for a method of attaching a wig or a wig base to the head that can be securely attached for a long period of time and is easy to wash.For example, in Patent Document 1, JP Patent Publication No. 11-81021 "Wig and Method of Attaching the Wig," a wig is proposed in which the peripheral portion of the back side of a wig base with artificial hair planted on the front side is separated into two pieces, a front edge portion and a back edge portion, with the inner peripheral end of the peripheral portion as a branching point, the front edge portion is made of a flexible planar member, the outer peripheral portion of the back edge portion is made of a flexible planar member, and the inner peripheral portion adjacent to the outer peripheral portion is made of a net-like member.

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 11-81021 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0006] When removing an adhesive wig from the head, a remover is required to be applied to the wig base. The remover is applied to the adhesive that holds the wig base to the scalp, weakening the adhesive strength and allowing the wig to be removed. This adds the task of applying the remover, and this creates the problem of it being time-consuming to remove the adhesive that has adhered to the wig base.
[0007] In addition, adhesive wigs often use a thin wig base to make them look more natural. When removing the wig, that is, when peeling the wig base off the scalp, the outer periphery of the wig base may be damaged. Or, the outer periphery may stretch, which is a problem.
[0008] The present invention has been invented to solve such problems. That is, the object of the present invention is to provide a wig base with slits that allows easy application of adhesive when attaching to the wig base and easy application of remover when removing, and that is less likely to cause stretching or damage to the periphery of the wig base when removing, and a wig equipped with the same. [Means for solving the problem]
[0009] The slitted wig base of the present invention is a wig base (1) which, when attaching a wig to a person's head, is fixed to the person's head by applying adhesive to predetermined locations, and when removing the wig, is peeled off by soaking the adhesive portion in a remover, A net material (2) having the same shape as the wearer's head and into which hair material is implanted; The wig is characterized by comprising a reinforcing portion (4) formed on the periphery of the net material (2) and having a penetration slit (5) for allowing an adhesive to be applied when the wig is put on and a remover to weaken the adhesive strength when the wig is removed to seep from the surface of the wig between the person's head and the wig base (1).
[0010] The reinforcing portion (4) is made of an arc-shaped sheet material having several parallel penetration slits (5) formed in the sheet material, and is formed on the inner surface side of the peripheral edge of the net material (2). The reinforcing portion (4) is formed by applying a synthetic resin material to the net material (2) so that the net material (2) has an arc-shaped contour and has several parallel penetration slits (5), and then drying the applied material to form a sheet material.
[0011] The reinforcing portion (4) may be formed by cutting a member made of the same material as the net material (2) into an arc shape and forming several infiltration slits (5) in parallel on the net material (2). The reinforcing portion (4) may be made of a circular arc-shaped sheet material having a plurality of penetration slits (5) arranged in parallel in several rows in the longitudinal direction of the sheet material.
[0012] The reinforcing portion (4) may be an arc-shaped sheet material having penetration slits (5) formed in its longitudinal direction, with several slits formed around the entire periphery of the net material (2). The penetration slits of the reinforcing portion (4) may be formed by forming one or more holes in a sheet material on the periphery of the wig base. The artificial skin part (3) can be formed continuously on the reinforcing part (4). Effect of the Invention
[0013] In the slit wig base of the present invention, a reinforcing portion (4) is formed on the peripheral portion of the net material (2) to which an external force is applied when removing the wig from the head, thereby preventing the peripheral portion from being damaged or stretched.
[0014] When putting the wig on the head, the adhesive applied to the reinforcing part (4) will temporarily remain in the gap of the penetration slit (5). Since it is possible to prevent the adhesive from dripping, the wig base (1) can be put on with confidence.
[0015] When removing the wig from the head, the remover injected into the penetration slit (5) temporarily remains in the gap of the penetration slit (5). The remover then passes through the net material (2) of the wig base (1) and becomes more likely to diffuse. The remover that has seeped into the adhesive on the scalp weakens the adhesive's adhesive strength, making it easier to peel the wig base (1) off the scalp. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0017] The wig base of the present invention has a reinforcing part formed on the outer periphery of the net material to which external force is applied when the wig base is removed from the head, to prevent the outer periphery from being damaged or stretched. In addition, the remover is injected into the penetration slits of the reinforcing part and temporarily retained in the gap, making it easier for the remover to diffuse. EXAMPLES
[0018] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. <Wig base configuration> Fig. 1 is a plan view showing a wig base having a reinforcing part formed therein according to Example 1. Fig. 2 is a bottom view showing a wig base having a reinforcing part formed therein according to Example 1. Fig. 3 is a side view showing a wig base having a reinforcing part formed therein. A wig is made by attaching hair material such as human hair or artificial hair to the surface side of a wig base 1 formed to have the same curved shape as the top of a human head. In the illustrated example, the hair material is omitted in order to make it easier to explain the configuration of the wig base 1.
[0019] As shown in the plan view of Fig. 1 and the bottom view of Fig. 2, the wig base 1 is constructed by combining a net material 2 consisting of a front portion 1a, a central portion 1b, and a peripheral portion 1c, an artificial skin portion 3, and a reinforcing portion 4. A wig is made by attaching human hair or artificial hair to the net material 2. The wig is worn on the head and fixed with an adhesive. In order to make the front portion 1a look natural, it is preferable to construct the front portion 1a using a thinner net material 2 than the other portions, the central portion 1b and the peripheral portion 1c.
[0020] As shown in the figure, an arc-shaped artificial skin part 3 may be provided overlapping the front part 1a, and a wavy slit may be formed in this artificial skin part 3. Also, the artificial skin part 3 may be formed with a wavy outer edge shape of a substantially constant width, in which case the area of the artificial skin part is wider than if it were substantially arc-shaped, and more adhesive can be applied.
[0021] The net material 2 of the wig base 1 is, for example, entirely made of a flexible polyurethane sheet. The material of the wig base 1 is not limited to the polyurethane sheet material, and other materials such as silicon resin material can be used as long as the material has the function of allowing the adhesive and remover to penetrate. In addition, the shapes of the front part 1a, the central part 1b, and the peripheral part 1c of the wig base 1 are not limited to the configurations shown in Figures 1 and 2, depending on the difference in hairstyle.
[0022] <Structure of reinforcement part> Fig. 4 is an enlarged cross-sectional view showing the reinforcing portion, (a) of the wig base with slits of the present invention, and (b) of a conventional wig base without a reinforcing portion with slits. Fig. 5 is an enlarged cross-sectional view showing the reinforcing portion in which the reinforcing portion is made of the same material as the net material. The slitted wig base 1 has a reinforcing portion 4 formed on its periphery. This reinforcing portion 4 has a permeation slit 5 formed therein. One method for forming the reinforcing portion 4 is, for example, to apply a synthetic resin material that forms an artificial skin to the net material 2, and then dry it to form the reinforcing portion 4. This reinforcing portion 4 is formed in an arc shape so as to have a shape that fits the periphery of the wig base 1, which corresponds to the back and both sides of the head.
[0023] Alternatively, as shown in the enlarged cross-sectional view of Fig. 5, the reinforcing portion 4 can be a sheet material of the same material as the net material 2, attached to the net material 2. Even a reinforcing portion 4 made of this sheet material literally has the function of reinforcing the net material 2. Furthermore, although not shown, it is a member or material that reinforces the periphery of the net material 2, and as long as it can be worn on the head as a wig without feeling unnatural, it is of course not limited to synthetic resin material (artificial skin) or net material.
[0024] The penetration slits 5 of the reinforcing part 4 are formed in a circular arc shape and arranged in parallel. There are three penetration slits 5 shown in Figs. 1 and 2. Of course, the number is not limited to three. There can be two, four, or five. The number can be increased or decreased depending on the width of the reinforcing part 4. However, six or less penetration slits 5 are preferable. If there are too many penetration slits, the area of the part that adheres to the scalp becomes too large, and the part that forms the top of the head of the wig base 1 becomes extremely narrow, which may cause the balance of the wig shape to be lost. When forming the reinforcing part 4, this penetration slit 5 is formed by attaching an adhesive sticker having the same size and shape as the three slits to the net material 2, applying a synthetic resin material to it, then drying it, and peeling off the adhesive sticker to form the reinforcing part 4 as shown in the figure.
[0025] In addition, if the width of the penetration slit 5 is narrow, the remover may not be applied sufficiently. Conversely, if the width is too wide, the area of the artificial skin for applying the adhesive when attaching the wig to the scalp becomes too small, making it difficult to obtain sufficient adhesive strength. Therefore, the width of the penetration slit 5 is preferably 2 mm to 9 mm. In this manner, in the reinforcing portion 4 having several penetration slits 5 arranged in parallel, the remover can easily permeate from the front surface of the wig base 1 into the adhesive on the back surface.
[0026] The penetration slits 5 thus formed in the reinforcing part 4 are where adhesive is applied when the wig is attached to the head. The adhesive applied to the reinforcing part 4 temporarily stays in the gaps of the penetration slits 5, preventing the adhesive from dripping, and allowing the wig base 1 to be worn with confidence.
[0027] The enlarged cross-sectional view of Figure 4 shows the reinforcing part 4 formed on the inner surface (the side attached to the head) of the wig base 1. This is to avoid forming the reinforcing part 4 on the side where hair material such as artificial hair or human hair will be implanted. However, it is of course possible to attach the reinforcing part 4 to the outside of the net material 2.
[0028] When the wig is removed from the head, the remover injected into the penetration slit 5 of the reinforcing part 4 temporarily remains in the gap of this penetration slit 5. The remover then passes through the wig base 1 (net material 2) and becomes more likely to diffuse. The remover that has soaked into the adhesive on the scalp reduces the adhesive's adhesive power, making it easier to peel the wig base 1 from the scalp, and the wig can be easily removed. Since the reinforcing part 4 is provided on the outer periphery of the wig base 1 where external force is applied when removing it from the scalp, damage or stretching of the periphery of the wig base 1 can be prevented.
[0029] Conventionally, in wig bases that do not have a place for the adhesive to accumulate (penetration slits 5), the adhesive is applied over a wide area, which can result in the adhesive being wasted. The penetration slits 5 in the reinforcing part 4 can prevent this waste.
[0030] As shown in the enlarged cross-sectional view of Figure 4, in a configuration in which a sheet having penetration slits 5 formed therein is formed on a net material 2, this portion becomes thicker, increasing the tensile strength and preventing damage when the wig base 1 is removed from the scalp.
[0031] <Modification 1 in which the penetration slit is formed into a short arc shape> FIG. 6 is a bottom view showing a first modified example in which the shape of the penetration slit is divided into short arc shapes. In the first modification, a plurality of penetration slits 5 shorter than the single penetration slit 5 shown in Figs. 1 to 3 are arranged in the longitudinal direction in several rows in the reinforcement part 4. The penetration slits 5 are arranged in a so-called "staggered arrangement". The shape of the penetration slit 5 is not limited to the shape of one long penetration slit that runs around both sides of the head, the back of the head, and 3 / 4 of the circumference of the head as shown in Fig. 1. As long as the reinforcement part 4 can reinforce the peripheral part of the wig base 1, each penetration slit 5 may be shortened and the number of penetration slits may be increased.
[0032] The wig base 1 of this modified example 1 has a structure that allows the remover to easily permeate from its front side to its inner side. Even with the reinforcing part 4 having many short permeation slits 5 formed therein, the reinforcing effect of the wig base 1 (net material 2) is not reduced. A line of many short permeation slits 5 has a stronger tensile strength than a single long permeation slit 5 on both sides of the head, at the back of the head, and running 3 / 4 of the way around the head, and can prevent damage to the wig base 1 when it is removed from the scalp.
[0033] <Modification 2 in which the reinforcing portion 4 is divided into short portions> FIG. 7 is a plan view showing a second modified example in which the reinforcing portion is divided into short arc shapes. The reinforcing part 14 of the modified example 2 is formed in multiple places or multiple sheets of reinforcing parts 14 on the periphery of the wig base 1 (net material 2) instead of the one place or one sheet of arc-shaped reinforcing part 4 as shown in the embodiment 1 and the modified example 1. The reinforcing part 14 of the modified example 2 also has multiple penetration slits 15 formed therein.
[0034] <Modification 3 in which the shape of the penetration slit is formed into a circular shape> FIG. 8 is a bottom view showing a third modified example in which the shape of the penetration slit is divided into circular shapes. The shape of the penetration slit 25 opened in the reinforcing part 24 of the third modification may be any shape such as an oval shape, a circle shape, a square shape, or a polygon shape. In the illustrated example, it is a circle shape. Also, as long as it is large enough to be formed on the periphery of the wig base 1 (net material 2), it is not limited to one place or one sheet, but may be two places or two sheets, and if it is small, it may be four to five places or four to five sheets. However, when forming each reinforcing part 24 on the periphery of the wig base 1 (net material 2), it is preferable to attach adjacent reinforcing parts 24 without any gaps. When the wig base 1 is removed from the scalp, it is possible to prevent breakage and stretching. Adjacent reinforcing parts 24 can be overlapped and attached to the wig base 1.
[0035] The reinforcing portion 24 of the third modification can be formed in multiple pieces according to the size of the peripheral portion of the wig base 1 (net material 2). Reinforcing portions 24 of different dimensions are prepared in advance, and reinforcing portions 24 of different dimensions are combined to form the reinforcing portions 24 according to the size of the peripheral portion of the wig base 1. Thus, even if the size of the wig base 1 (net material 2) varies greatly, the reinforcing portions 24 can be adjusted to any size.
[0036] <Modification 4 in which penetration slits are provided all around the wig base> The reinforcing portion 4 of the fourth modification is formed by forming several elliptical portions concentrically around the entire periphery of the wig base (net material 2) (not shown). The reinforcing portion 4 formed around the entire periphery of the wig base of the fourth modification increases the adhesive strength of the wig to the head. EXAMPLES
[0037] FIG. 9 is a bottom view showing the wig base of the second embodiment. The wig base 31 of the second embodiment has a wide area of the reinforcing portion 34. For example, the second artificial skin portion 33 is integrally formed with the reinforcing portion 34 having the penetration slit 35. The size of the second artificial skin portion 33 is set to include a position 36 corresponding to the "parting" of the hair. By continuously forming the second artificial skin portion 33 on the reinforcing portion 34 in this way, the application area of the adhesive increases, and the adhesive strength can be improved. The shapes of the front portion 31a, the central portion 31b, and the peripheral portion 31c in the wig base 31 of the second embodiment also change according to the difference in hairstyle. FIG. 9 shows an example in which an artificial skin portion having a wavy outer edge shape is used for the front portion 31a.
[0038] The reinforcing part 34 formed on the periphery of the wig base 31 (net material 2) of this Example 2 also has a permeation slit 35. This reinforcing part 34 is made of a synthetic resin material, and is also made of a sheet material of the same material as the wig base 31. A second artificial skin part 33 is integrally formed continuous with this reinforcing part 34.
[0039] The permeation slit 35 has the same function as the permeation slit 5 in Example 1. When the wig is attached to the head, the adhesive applied to the reinforcing portion 34 temporarily stays in the gap of the permeation slit 35, so that the adhesive is prevented from dripping, and the wig base 31 can be attached with confidence.
[0040] Furthermore, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments of the invention, and can of course be modified in various ways without departing from the gist of the present invention, so long as it is possible to create a wig base 1, 31 that allows for easy application of adhesive when putting on a wig and easy application of remover when removing the wig, and that is less likely to cause stretching or damage to the surrounding portions of the wig base 1, 31 when removing the wig base. [Industrial Applicability]
