Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to thinning scissors having comb blades with a plurality of comb teeth arranged thereon, and a method for using the same. [Background technology]

[0002] In barbering and beauty salons, it has been known that thinning scissors are used to reduce the amount of hair that forms a hairstyle, adjust the volume of hair, and add movement and texture to the hairstyle. Thinning scissors are used for such thinning scissors, and they have comb blades with multiple comb teeth arranged on them.

[0003] For example, Patent Document 1 proposes thinning scissors that have a rod blade and a comb blade, the comb blade being formed to be longer than the rod blade, and a comb tooth body also provided at the tip of the comb blade that protrudes from the tip of the rod blade and does not mesh with the rod blade. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 3213667 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] However, if the direction of hair flow is disordered, the hairstyle will not be what the practitioner (e.g., hairdresser) or the person being treated desires. To adjust the direction of hair flow, it is necessary to adjust the amount of hair to be thinned depending on the position of the hair.

[0006] An object of the present invention is to enable adjustment of the direction of hair flow and more delicate adjustment of hair volume. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] (1) Thinning scissors having comb blades with a plurality of comb teeth arranged thereon, The plurality of comb teeth each have an arc-shaped blade formed at a tip thereof, The comb blade includes at least a first region configured by the comb teeth, the blades of which are formed in an arc shape with a first radius of curvature; and a second region configured with the comb teeth, the blades of which are formed with a second radius of curvature different from the first radius of curvature.

[0008] According to the invention (1), the thinning scissors have comb blades on which a plurality of comb teeth are arranged. Each of the plurality of comb teeth has an arc-shaped blade formed at the tip. The comb blade includes at least a first region and a second region. The first region is configured with comb teeth whose blades are formed in an arc shape with a first radius of curvature. The second region is configured with comb teeth whose blades are formed with a second radius of curvature different from the first radius of curvature.

[0009] In the invention of (1), the amount of hair that can be cut by the comb teeth in the first region is different from the amount of hair that can be cut by the comb teeth in the second region. Therefore, when thinning, the practitioner can adjust the amount of hair to be thinned depending on the position of the hair by cutting with the comb teeth in the first region at one position of the hair and with the comb teeth in the second region at another position. Therefore, it is possible to provide a pair of combing scissors that allows adjustment of the direction of hair flow and more delicate adjustment of hair volume.

[0010] (2) The first radius of curvature is smaller than the second radius of curvature, the comb blade has the comb teeth arranged on a tip end side and a grip portion on a base end side to be gripped by an operator, The thinning scissors according to (1) are characterized in that the first region is disposed closer to the tip side than the second region.

[0011] According to the invention (2), the first radius of curvature is smaller than the second radius of curvature. The comb blade has comb teeth arranged at the tip end and a grip portion at the base end to be gripped by an operator. The first region is disposed closer to the tip end than the second region.

[0012] Here, the closer to the scalp (hair roots), the denser the hair is. Therefore, the amount of hair cut by one comb tooth is greater near the scalp than at the tip or middle of the hair. Also, hair intersections near the scalp have a greater effect on the direction of hair flow than hair flow intersections at the tip.

[0013] In the invention (2), the first region, in which the radius of curvature of the arc-shaped blade is smaller, is located closer to the tip than the second region. In this way, the first region, in which the radius of curvature of the arc-shaped blade is smaller, is located closer to the tip, which is easier to get closer to the scalp, so the amount of hair to be cut near the scalp can be reduced. Therefore, it becomes easier to adjust the direction of hair flow near the scalp, which has a greater influence on the direction of hair flow, and more delicate adjustment of hair volume becomes possible.

[0014] (3) In the first region and / or the second region, a plurality of the comb teeth are arranged at predetermined intervals, The thinning scissors according to (1) or (2) are characterized in that the first region and the second region are arranged at a specific interval different from the predetermined interval.

[0015] According to the invention (3), the first and second regions are arranged at specific intervals that are different from the predetermined intervals between the plurality of comb teeth in the first and / or second regions. This makes it easier for the practitioner to grasp the positions of the first region and the second region on the comb blade.

[0016] (4) A method of using the thinning scissors described in (1), Hold the thinning scissors so that the tip side protrudes from the little finger side, Pulling the hair strand away from the scalp, A method of using thinning scissors, characterized in that the bundle of hair is cut with the thinning scissors at a position selected from the first region or the second region.

[0017] According to the invention (4), the same effects as those of the invention (1) are achieved. [Effects of the Invention]

[0018] According to the present invention, it is possible to adjust the direction of hair flow and to adjust the volume of hair more delicately. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0020] Hereinafter, a mode for carrying out the present invention (hereinafter referred to as an embodiment) will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the description of the embodiment, the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will be omitted or simplified.

[0021] Fig. 1 is a diagram illustrating thinning scissors according to an embodiment of the present invention. Note that the dimensions shown in Fig. 1 are an example, and each component of the thinning scissors 1 can be formed to any dimensions. The thinning scissors 1 include a first body 10 and a second body 20 rotatably connected to the first body 10 at a connecting portion 5.

[0022] The first body 10 is a comb blade on which a plurality of comb teeth 11 are arranged. The first body 10 extends from the base end side, where the grip portion 110 is formed, to the tip end side, and is rotatably connected to the second body 20 at an intermediate portion by a connecting portion 5. The first body 10 has an array of multiple comb teeth 11, each with an arc-shaped blade formed at the tip end, on the tip side of the connecting portion 5. The first body 10 also has a grip portion 110 formed on the base end side by the connecting portion 5, which includes a ring-shaped portion through which a user of the thinning scissors 1 (e.g., a hairdresser) can insert their fingers, and a protruding portion that protrudes from the outer edge of the ring-shaped portion and on which the user can hook their fingers.

[0023] Furthermore, the first body 10 has a plurality of regions (first region 10A, second region 10B, and third region 10C in the example shown in FIG. 1) arranged from the distal end toward the proximal end, in which a plurality of comb teeth 11 each having an arc-shaped blade at the distal end are arranged. In these regions, the radius of curvature of the arc-shaped blades of the comb teeth 11 arranged in each region is different from one another. In this embodiment, the first body 10 has three regions, the first region 10A, the second region 10B, and the third region 10C, but is not limited thereto, and may have only two regions (for example, any two of the first region 10A, the second region 10B, and the third region 10C) or may have four or more regions.

[0024] FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating the comb teeth of the thinning scissors according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2(a) is an enlarged view of the blades of the comb teeth 11 in the first region 10A. FIG. 2(b) is an enlarged view of the blades of the comb teeth 11 in the second region 10B. FIG. 2(c) is an enlarged view of the blades of the comb teeth 11 in the third region 10C. Note that the dimensions shown in FIG. 2 are an example, and each component of the comb teeth 11 can be formed to any dimensions.

[0025] The blades of the comb teeth 11 in the first region 10A are formed in an arc shape with a first radius of curvature (RO.12 mm in the example shown in FIG. 2(a)). In the example shown in FIG. 2(a), the blade of one comb tooth 11 in the first region 10A can cut one hair when the thinning scissors 1 are used horizontally ("normal use").

[0026] The blades of the comb teeth 11 in the second region 10B are formed in an arc shape with a second radius of curvature (RO. 18 mm in the example shown in FIG. 2(b)). In the example shown in FIG. 2(b), the blade of one comb tooth 11 in the second region 10B can cut three hairs when the thinning scissors 1 are used horizontally ("normal use").

[0027] The blades of the comb teeth 11 in the third region 10C are formed in an arc shape with a third radius of curvature (RO.22 mm in the example shown in FIG. 2(c)). In the example shown in FIG. 2(c), the blade of one comb tooth 11 in the third region 10C can cut six hairs when the thinning scissors 1 are used horizontally ("normal use").

[0028] As shown in FIG. 2, the second radius of curvature of the blades of the comb teeth 11 in the second region 10B is smaller than the third radius of curvature of the blades of the comb teeth 11 in the third region 10C. Furthermore, the first radius of curvature of the blades of the comb teeth 11 in the first region 10A is smaller than the second radius of curvature of the blades of the comb teeth 11 in the second region 10B. In this way, it is desirable that the first body 10 has comb teeth 11 on the tip side of which arc-shaped blades with a smaller radius of curvature are arranged.

[0029] The arc-shaped blades of the comb teeth 11 extend in a curved manner from the tip 11a on the front side of the comb teeth 11 toward the base, reach the blade bottom 11b, and then extend in a curved manner from the blade bottom 11b toward the tip, up to the base tooth tip 11c. The tip tooth tip 11a of the comb teeth 11 is formed closer to the base than the base tooth tip 11c.

[0030] The blades of the comb teeth 11 in the first region 10A have a first depth dimension from the tip 11a of the distal end tooth to the blade base 11b of 0.04 mm in the example shown in Fig. 2(a). In the example shown in Fig. 2(a), the blade of one comb tooth 11 in the first region 10A can cut one hair when the thinning scissors 1 are used vertically.

[0031] The blades of the comb teeth 11 in the second region 10B have a second depth dimension from the tip 11a of the distal end tooth to the blade base 11b of 0.1 mm in the example shown in Fig. 2(b). In the example shown in Fig. 2(b), the blade of one comb tooth 11 in the second region 10B can cut two hairs when the thinning scissors 1 are used vertically.

[0032] The blades of the comb teeth 11 in the third region 10C have a third depth dimension from the tip 11a of the distal end tooth to the blade base 11b of 0.15 mm in the example shown in Fig. 2(c). In the example shown in Fig. 2(c), the blade of one comb tooth 11 in the third region 10C can cut three hairs when the thinning scissors 1 are used vertically.

[0033] In this way, it is desirable that the first body 10 has comb teeth 11 arranged on the tip side, the depth dimension from the tip end 11a to the blade bottom 11b being smaller.

[0034] Returning to FIG. 1, the first body 10 has a plurality of comb teeth 11 arranged at a predetermined interval (1.1 mm in the example shown in FIG. 1) in the first region 10A, the second region 10B, and the third region 10C. In the example shown in FIG. 1, the plurality of comb teeth in the first region 10A, the second region 10B, and the third region 10C are all arranged at the same predetermined interval, but this is not limited thereto, and the interval between the plurality of comb teeth 11 can be any dimension. For example, the plurality of comb teeth 11 may be arranged at different intervals in the first region 10A, the second region 10B, and the third region 10C, respectively, or the plurality of comb teeth 11 may be arranged only in the first region 10A at a predetermined interval different from that in the other regions (for example, a narrower interval than that in the other regions).

[0035] The first region 10A and the second region 10B, and the second region 10B and the third region 10C are respectively arranged at a specific interval (1.8 mm in the example shown in FIG. 1) different from the above-mentioned predetermined interval (1.1 mm in the example shown in FIG. 1). Specifically, the first region 10A and the second region 10B, and the second region 10B and the third region 10C are respectively arranged at a specific interval that is wider than the above-mentioned predetermined interval.

[0036] The second body 20 is a rod blade having a cutting edge that extends continuously from the distal end side to the proximal end side. The second body 20 extends from the base end side, where the grip portion 210 is formed, to the tip end side, and is rotatably connected to the first body 10 at an intermediate portion by a connecting portion 5. A continuously extending cutting edge is formed on the tip end side of the second body 20 by the connecting portion 5. Furthermore, the second body 20 is formed on the base end side by the connecting portion 5 with the grip portion 210 having a ring-shaped portion through which a user of the thinning scissors 1 (e.g., a hairdresser) can insert their fingers, and a protruding portion that protrudes from the outer edge of the ring-shaped portion and on which the user can hook their fingers. Note that the second body 20 is not limited to a rod blade, and may be configured as a comb blade having comb teeth that come into sliding contact with the multiple comb teeth 11 of the first body 10.

[0037] In addition, the length of the second body 20 from the connecting portion 5 to the tip is shorter than that of the first body 10 by the length of the multiple (four in the example shown in Figure 1) comb teeth 11 arranged at a predetermined interval.

[0038] Next, how to use the thinning scissors 1 will be described. [How to use to straighten hair crosses] In this embodiment, "hair intersection" refers to a state in which several hairs growing from one hair follicle are tangled from the root. Hair intersection affects the hair flow and can be a factor that hinders hairstyles.

[0039] FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a method of using the thinning scissors according to the embodiment of the present invention to straighten crossed hair. First, when adjusting the hair crossings with the combing scissors 1, the practitioner (hairdresser, etc.) observes the area around the whorl of the patient and combs the hair in a direction against the direction of the observed hair flow. Specifically, the practitioner holds the combing scissors 1 in his back hand, stands to the side of the patient's head, and starts combing in a direction against the direction of the hair flow.

[0040] Next, the practitioner places the first body 10 (comb blade) of the combing scissors 1 facing downward, opens the combing scissors 1 at 90 degrees, brings the tip of the first body 10 into contact with the scalp of the person to be treated, and combs the hair in the direction against the hair flow while maintaining the first body 10 at an angle of 40 to 50 degrees from the horizontal. At this time, it is desirable to comb the hair in large, gentle increments of 1 mm.

[0041] It is recommended that the practitioner comb the hair in blocks that are 5 to 6 cm wide and 3 to 4 cm long.

[0042] [How to use to adjust hair flow intersections] In this embodiment, "crossing hair flow" refers to a state in which multiple hairs are not untangled from the crossing hair flow at the root, or the hair is tangled from the middle to the tip due to some kind of friction. Crossing hair flow causes hair to get tangled when brushing, making it impossible to form hair flow in the desired direction, resulting in wavy hair and hindering hairstyle styling.

[0043] FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a method of using the thinning scissors according to the embodiment of the present invention to adjust the intersection of hair flows. First, the practitioner (hairdresser, etc.) observes the rising of the hair flow on the left and right sides of a block where the hair crossings have been adjusted, and then arranges the hair bundle into a panel along the observed hair flow, moving it away from the scalp.

[0044] Next, the practitioner holds the combing scissors 1 upside down (with the tips of the combing scissors 1 placed on the practitioner's little finger side) while keeping the scissors closed, opens the scissors 1 at a position 2 to 4 cm away from the hair roots, and begins combing. At this time, if the practitioner wants to make fine adjustments to the hairstyle, it is desirable to cut in the first region 10A (see FIG. 1: for example, a region suitable for cutting one hair), and if the practitioner wants to adjust the direction of the hair flow, it is desirable to cut in the second region 10B (see FIG. 1: for example, a region suitable for cutting three hairs) or the third region 10C (see FIG. 1: for example, a region suitable for cutting six hairs).

[0045] Next, the effects of the thinning scissors 1 according to this embodiment will be described. According to the thinning scissors 1 according to this embodiment, the amount of hair that can be cut by the comb teeth 11 in the first region 10A differs from the amount of hair that can be cut by the comb teeth 11 in the second region 10B. Therefore, when thinning, the practitioner can adjust the amount of hair to be thinned depending on the position of the hair by cutting the hair in one position with the comb teeth in the first region 10A and cutting the hair in another position with the comb teeth 11 in the second region 10B. Therefore, it is possible to provide a pair of combing scissors that allows adjustment of the direction of hair flow and more delicate adjustment of hair volume.

[0046] Furthermore, according to the thinning scissors 1, the first region 10A, in which the arc-shaped blade has a smaller radius of curvature, is located closer to the tip than the second region 10B. In this way, first region 10A, in which the arc-shaped blade has a smaller radius of curvature, is located on the tip side, which is closer to the scalp, so that the amount of hair to be cut near the scalp can be reduced. Therefore, it becomes easier to adjust the direction of hair flow near the scalp, which has a greater influence on the direction of hair flow, and more delicate adjustment of hair volume becomes possible.

[0047] Furthermore, according to the thinning scissors 1, the first region 10A and the second region 10B are arranged at specific intervals that are different from the predetermined intervals between the plurality of comb teeth 11 in the first region 10A and / or the second region 10B. This makes it easier for the practitioner to grasp the positions of the first region and the second region on the comb blade.

[0048] Although the present invention has been described above using embodiments, it goes without saying that the technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the scope described in the above embodiments. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and improvements can be made to the above embodiments. Furthermore, it is clear from the claims that such modifications and improvements can also be included within the technical scope of the present invention. [Explanation of symbols]
