Hair sweat wipes

Abstract

To make a sweat wiper provided for sweat wiping of hair to be compact and easily used.SOLUTION: A sweat wiper 1 of hair of the present invention achieves easy sweat wiping of hair by a hand comb from a proximal side of hair to a scalp by allowing a user to put fingers through each of a plurality of cylindrical finger passage portions 21 to 24 having water absorption. Portions 20 of a proximal side of all the finger passage portions 21 to 24 are connected by a sheet-like body 4 and the fingers of the user are made to slide into the finger passage portions 21 to 24 with the sheet-like body 4 as a guide. Thus, the fingers are collectively (simultaneously) put through the plurality of finger passage portions 21 to 24 like a glove to use the wiper for sweat wiping. The wiper does not have a shape of the glove but is shaped like a cut open on a back of a hand side. Thus, the wiper can easily be put on for passing the sweaty hand through compared to the glove which passes up to a wrist. Furthermore, when folded, the wiper is less bulky and easy to carry compared to the gloves, especially towel gloves.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a novel sweat wiper capable of wiping off sweat by running a hand comb through hair. [Background technology]

[0002] When drying long hair after washing, towels with good water absorption that can expedite drying (in a short time) and reduce damage to hair caused by heat by wiping off moisture beforehand have been widely used along with the widespread use of microfibers. However, when wiping off moisture from hair with a towel, it is often a two-handed task, as the towel must be folded and the hair passed through the towel.

[0003] Therefore, gloves and towels made of absorbent fabric sewn into the shape of gloves have been proposed in Patent Documents 1 to 3. This makes it possible to operate a hair dryer with one hand while combing wet hair to absorb most of the moisture, improving drying efficiency. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 3145440 [Patent Document 2] JP 2002-336034 A [Patent Document 3] Utility Model Registration No. 3034790 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] However, all of the prior arts are extensions of towels and are suitable for drying hair after washing, etc., when a large amount of moisture is present, but they have the problem that it is difficult to comb through the hair from the base to the scalp, even if they are made of thick fabric and have a glove-like shape. In addition, because they are made of thick fabric, they are bulky when carried around for wiping sweat.

[0006] An object of the present invention is to provide a sweat wiping tool for wiping sweat with a hand comb, which is easy to carry. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] The sweat wiping device of the present invention is made of a water-absorbent material and has a cylindrical shape. The sweat wiping device has a plurality of sleeves into which the user's fingers can be individually inserted. Extends in the same direction A sheet-like body that connects the base ends of all the finger-passing parts and the finger-passing parts is provided. the sheet-like body is formed to be wider than all of the finger-passing portions, the finger-passing portions are folded at the connecting portions, and the sheet-like body is folded to accommodate the finger-passing portions within the sheet-like body, the sheet-like body is rectangular, the finger-passing portions extend from the center in the width direction in a direction perpendicular to the width direction, and locking members are provided at the four corners of the sheet-like body. It is characterized by:

[0008] According to the above configuration, the user can easily wipe sweat from the hair with a hand comb from the base end side of the hair to the scalp by passing his / her fingers through each of the plurality of tubular finger-passing sections that are absorbent and cut off individually. Since it is difficult to pass (insert) fingers through the finger-passing sections when they are cut off individually, the base ends of all the finger-passing sections are connected by a sheet-like body, and the user can slide his / her fingers through the finger-passing sections using the sheet-like body as a guide.

[0009] Therefore, multiple fingers can be passed through the finger passages at the same time as with gloves, and used to wipe sweat. Also, since it is not shaped like a glove, but is cut open at the back of the hand, it is easy to put on when putting sweaty hands through it, for example while walking, compared to gloves that are passed through up to the wrist. Furthermore, when folded, it is smaller in volume than gloves, especially gloves made of towel fabric, and is easy to carry.

[0010] In the sweat wiping tool of the present invention, the finger-passing portion but , 4 fingers excluding the thumb, or 3 fingers excluding the little finger. a ring-shaped member for holding a thumb is provided on the sheet-shaped member, and a hole of the ring-shaped member is oriented in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the finger-passing portion.It is characterized by:

[0011] According to the above configuration, if finger passages are provided for all five fingers, the base end of the thumb is positioned farther back toward the wrist than the other four fingers, making it difficult to fold back at the connecting portion. Also, while the other four fingers are generally parallel to one another, the thumb is horizontal, making it difficult to wear with only a finger passage for the thumb. Therefore, by providing finger passages for four fingers excluding the thumb, it is easy to fold the base end side toward the inside of the sheet-like body and to wear the mask. Furthermore, by providing finger passages for three fingers excluding the little finger, which is shorter and thinner than the other fingers and has a base closer to the wrist than the other fingers, it becomes even easier to pass the fingers through without significantly compromising the sweat-absorbing effect.

[0012] Furthermore, in the sweat wiper of the present invention, the finger-passing portion has a tip covered with a member that is harder than the finger-passing portion and sharper than the user's finger.

[0013] According to the above configuration, if the finger-passing portion is thick, it is difficult for it to penetrate between the hair, and similarly, if the fabric is soft, it is difficult to push the hair aside. Therefore, by configuring the tip of the finger-passing portion with a material that is harder and sharper than the finger-passing portion, it is possible to improve the finger-passing, i.e., the efficiency of absorbing sweat.

[0014] Furthermore, in the sweat wiper of the present invention, the sharp member is made of silicone rubber.

[0015] According to the above-mentioned structure, although wood or plastic can be used as a material that is hard and sharp and easy to run your fingers through, by using silicone rubber that has flexibility and elasticity, damage to the scalp can be suppressed. Leather has the same effect.

[0017] According to the above configuration, by making the sheet-like body portion larger, it is possible to make it easier to put fingers through (wear). Furthermore, by forming the sheet-like body portion wider than the finger-passing portion, the finger-passing portion can be folded back at the connecting portion, and the sheet-like body can be folded to accommodate the finger-passing portion within the sheet-like body, so that the appearance can be formed like a handkerchief.

[0019] According to the above configuration, the finger-passing portion can be folded inside the sheet-like body like a handkerchief, and the folded state can be maintained by providing locking members such as snap buttons or hook-and-loop fasteners at opposing positions to lock the portions together.

[0020] Furthermore, in the hair sweat wiper of the present invention, the sheet-like body is formed to a length that reaches approximately to the wrist, and a band or string-like body is provided near the tip thereof for passing the user's wrist and holding it in place.

[0021] According to the above configuration, the sheet-like body is formed to a length that reaches almost the wrist, i.e., is formed to an area that covers at least the palm, so that sweat can be wiped not only from the finger-passing area but also from the palm, and handling is easy. Furthermore, by providing a band or string-like body around the tip of the sheet-like body, i.e., the wrist, through which the user's wrist passes and which holds it in place, the large sheet-like body does not move freely but moves together with the palm, making it easier to wipe sweat from the palm and easier to handle.

[0023] According to the above configuration, the finger passage area is for four fingers excluding the thumb, or for three fingers excluding the little finger, so the thumb is not restricted. Therefore, by providing a band or string-like body for fastening the thumb through the sheet-like body, the large sheet-like body does not move freely but moves almost integrally with the palm, making it easier to wipe sweat from the palm and easier to handle.

[0024] Furthermore, in the sweat wiper of the present invention, the finger-passing portion is made of cotton material.

[0025] According to the above-mentioned configuration, the water absorbency is good, and by making the finger-passing portion out of cotton cloth, the finger-passing portion does not become significantly thicker than the user's fingers, making it easier for the user to pass their fingers through the hair.

[0026] In the sweat wiper of the present invention, the sheet-like body is made of a fabric that is thicker than the finger-passing portion.

[0027] According to the above configuration, the finger-passing portion needs to be relatively thin to allow fingers to pass easily through the hair, i.e., to make it thin; however, the sheet-like body can be made thicker to increase its water absorption capacity, and by forming it from fabric, i.e., woven cloth, it is not as thick as pile fabric and is easy to carry.

[0028] Furthermore, in the sweat wiper of the present invention, the finger-passing portion has an outer surface made of a mesh material.

[0029] According to the above-mentioned configuration, the finger-passing portion is formed by a combination of approximately half-split fabrics, the inside is formed of the absorbent fabric, and the outside is formed of a mesh material. Therefore, when using a hand comb to wipe sweat from the hair, the breathability of the finger-passing portion, which tends to become hot and stuffy, can be improved.

[0030] The sweat wiper of the present invention is characterized in that it is formed in flesh color or beige (light brown) color.

[0031] According to the above configuration, if the hair wiper is a relatively conspicuous color such as black or a primary color, it may attract the attention of other people, who may not know what the user is doing and may feel uncomfortable. Therefore, by making the hair wiper flesh-colored or beige (light brown), it looks like the user is combing the hair with his / her hands, which does not cause any discomfort to others. Effect of the Invention

[0032] As described above, the hair sweat wiper of the present invention is a hair sweat wiper that is used for wiping sweat from the head by passing a hand comb through it, and by the user passing his / her fingers through each of the multiple absorbent cylindrical finger passage sections, the user can easily wipe sweat from the head hair with the hand comb from the base end of the hair to the scalp.Furthermore, since it is difficult to pass fingers through the finger passage sections as they are, the base ends of all the finger passage sections are connected by a sheet-like body, and the sheet-like body is used as a guide to slide the user's fingers through the finger passage sections.

[0033] Therefore, multiple fingers can be passed through the finger passages at the same time, just like gloves, and used to wipe sweat. Also, since it is not shaped like a glove, but is cut open at the back of the hand, it is easier to put on when putting sweaty hands through it, compared to gloves that are passed through up to the wrist. Furthermore, when folded, it is smaller in volume than gloves, especially gloves made of towel fabric, and is easier to carry. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0034] [Figure 1] 1 is a perspective view of a sweat wiper for hair according to one embodiment of the present invention; [Diagram 2] FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the hair wiper; [Diagram 3] FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the hair sweat wiper in an unused state. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0035] Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a hair sweat wiper 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention, Fig. 2 is an exploded perspective view showing the assembled (created) state, and Fig. 3 is a perspective view showing the unused state. The hair sweat wiper 1 of this embodiment is made of a water-absorbent material and formed into a cylindrical shape that is individually cut off, and is configured with a plurality of finger-passing parts 21, 22, 23, 24 (four in this embodiment) (hereinafter, collectively referred to as 2) into which the user's fingers can be inserted, and a sheet-like body 4 in which the base ends of all the finger-passing parts 2 are connected by a seam 3.

[0036] That is, in this sweat wiper 1, since it is difficult to pass (insert) fingers through the finger-passing portions 2 in the individually cut-off cylindrical form, the base ends of all the finger-passing portions 2 are connected by a sheet-like body 4 from a seam 3, and the sheet-like body 4 is used as a guide to slide the user's fingers into the finger-passing portions 2. Then, by passing the user's fingers through each of the finger-passing portions 2, it becomes possible to easily wipe sweat from the head hair with a hand comb, from the base end side of the hair to the scalp, that is, all the way to the back of the hair.

[0037] Therefore, the sweat wiper 1 of this embodiment can be used to wipe sweat by passing fingers through the finger passage parts 2 together (at the same time) in the same way as gloves. However, since it is not shaped like a glove, but is shaped like a glove cut open at the back of the hand, it is easy to put on while walking, for example, when passing sweaty hands through it, compared to gloves that are passed through up to the wrist. Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 3, if the finger passage parts 2 are folded back toward the sheet-like body 4 at the connecting parts (seams 3), it becomes less bulky and easier to carry than gloves, especially gloves made of towel fabric.

[0038] The sweat wiper 1 for hair according to this embodiment will be described in detail below. First, it should be noted that finger passage parts 2 are provided for four fingers excluding the thumb. This is because if finger passage parts 2 are provided for all five fingers, the base end of the thumb will be located significantly further back toward the wrist than the other four fingers, making it difficult to fold back at the connecting part (seam 3). Also, while the other four fingers are generally parallel to each other in the direction of passing through the finger passage parts 2, the thumb is horizontal, and it would be difficult to wear with only one finger passage part 2 for the thumb. The example in the figure is for the left hand, with the finger passage part 22 being the longest, through which the middle finger can pass.

[0039] Therefore, by making the finger-passing portion 2 the length of four fingers excluding the thumb, it is easy to fold the base end side inside the sheet-like body 4 and to wear. Furthermore, of the four fingers, the little finger (reference number 24 in the illustrated example) has its base closer to the wrist than the other three fingers and is shorter and thinner than the other fingers, so by making the finger-passing portion 2 the length of three fingers excluding the little finger, it becomes even easier to pass the fingers through without significantly compromising the sweat-absorbing effect.

[0040] Next, it should be noted that the finger passage portion 2 is made by cutting open the cotton glove in half for four fingers, excluding the thumb portion, and using the palm side portions 211, 221, 231, 241 of each finger and the base end portion 20 connecting them, and the back side portions 212, 222, 232, 242 of each finger are made of mesh material. The base end portion 20 is a portion of the palm remaining, and is sewn to the sheet-like body 4 by the seam 3. Of course, only the finger portions of the cotton glove may be cut out, and only the palm side portions 211, 221, 231, 241 of each finger in the half cross section may be used and sewn directly to the sheet-like body 4, but by leaving the base end portion 20 and sewing it, the fingers can pass through smoothly and it is easy to sew to the sheet-like body 4.

[0041] The palm side parts 211, 221, 231, 241 of each finger and the back side parts 212, 222, 232, 242 of each finger are turned inside out and sewn together from both sides to the tip parts with seams 213, 223, 233, 243 to form a bottomed tubular shape. The finger-through part 2 does not have to be bottomed tubular, but may be simply tubular, that is, so that the user's fingers can pass through it. In this way, the finger-through part 2 is formed by combining approximately half-split fabrics, and the palm side parts 211, 221, 231, 241 of the inner side of each finger are made of cotton cloth or thin towel fabric, so that good water absorption can be obtained and the user's fingers can easily pass through the hair without being significantly thicker than the fingers they are passing through. In addition, by making the outer parts 212, 222, 232, 242 of the fingers on the back side of the hand out of mesh material, such as cotton lace, the breathability of the finger-passing part 2, which tends to become hot and stuffy when using a comb to wipe sweat off the hair, can be improved.

[0042] Preferably, a reinforcing band 27 is attached to the base end side of each finger passage portion 2. This reinforcing band 27 is made of leather or the like, and reinforces the base end side where the fingers go in, and also makes the portions 212, 222, 232, 242 on the back of the hand in particular rise in an arch shape to make it easier for the fingers to slide in. The reinforcing band 27 may be provided on the inner periphery side of each finger passage portion 2.

[0043] Here, if the finger-passing portion 2 is thick, it is difficult for it to penetrate between the hair, and similarly, if the material is soft, it is difficult to push the hair aside. Therefore, what is noteworthy about the sweat wiper 1 of this embodiment is that the finger-passing portion 2 has a tip covered with a member 28 that is harder than the finger-passing portion 2 and sharper than the user's finger. This makes it easier for the fingers to pass through, i.e., improves the efficiency of sweat removal.

[0044] The material for the sharp member 28, which is hard, sharp, and easy to run your fingers through, can be wood or plastic, but by using silicone rubber, which has flexibility and elasticity, damage to the scalp can be suppressed. The sharp member 28 may be made of leather, similar to the reinforcing band 27.

[0045] On the other hand, in the hair sweat wiper 1 of this embodiment, the sheet-like body 4 is formed to be wider than the width of all of the finger-passing portions 2, as shown in Figures 1 and 2. By making the sheet-like body 4 portion larger in this way, it is possible to make it easier to pass fingers through (wear). Also, since the sheet-like body 4 portion is wider, as shown in Figure 3, the finger-passing portions 2 can be folded back at the base end portion 20 close to the seam 3 of the connecting portion, and the sheet-like body 4 can be folded to accommodate the finger-passing portions 2 within the sheet-like body 4, so that the appearance of the sheet-like body 4 looks like a handkerchief.

[0046] It should also be noted that in the sweat wiper 1 for hair of this embodiment, the locking members 51, 52 for locking each other are provided at the peripheral portion of the sheet-like body 4 at positions facing each other when the sheet-like body 4 is folded. In this embodiment, the locking members 51, 52 are provided at the four corners of the sheet-like body 4 that is folded in two. In this embodiment, the locking members 51, 52 are exemplified as snap buttons, but they may be hook-and-loop fasteners or buttons. In this embodiment, the locking member 51 on one end side of the belt-like sheet-like body 4 is exemplified as a male snap button, and the locking member 52 on the other end side is exemplified as a female snap button. However, it is sufficient that the snap buttons or hook-and-loop fasteners that fit each other form a male-female pair, for example, such that the locking member 51 on one end side is a male-female snap button and the locking member 52 on the other end side is a female-male snap button. With this configuration, as shown in FIG. 3, the finger-passing portion 2 can be folded inside the sheet-like body 4 like the handkerchief described above, and the folded state can be maintained.

[0047] It is also worth noting that in the sweat wiper 1 for hair of this embodiment, the sheet-like body 4 is made of a thicker fabric than the finger-passing portion 2. This is because, as described above, the finger-passing portion 2 needs to be made relatively thin to allow easy finger passage through the hair, i.e., to make the hair thin, but by making the sheet-like body 4 thicker, the amount of water absorbed can be increased. Therefore, by forming the sheet-like body 4 from a fabric, i.e., a woven fabric, it does not become as thick as pile fabric, making it easy to carry, and it is possible to stroke the surface of the hair with the fabric (sheet-like body 4) in the palm to remove coarse moisture, and to pass the finger-passing portion 2 through to the back to reliably wipe away sweat even in the area close to the scalp.

[0048] Also noteworthy is that in the hair sweat wiper 1 of this embodiment, the sheet-like body 4 is formed to a length that reaches almost the wrist, i.e., formed to an area that covers at least the palm, and a band or string-like body (a band-like body in this embodiment) 6 is provided near the tip 41 of the sheet-like body 4, through which the user's wrist passes and which holds the wrist in place. This configuration allows the user to wipe sweat not only from the finger-passing area 2, but also from the palm, and makes the device easier to handle. Furthermore, the band or string-like body 6 allows the large sheet-like body 4 to move together with the palm, rather than moving freely, and makes it easier to wipe sweat from the palm and easier to handle.

[0049] Similarly, the sheet-like body 4 may be provided with a band or string-like body 7 for holding the thumb. This is because, as described above, the finger-passing portion 2 is provided for four fingers excluding the thumb, or for three fingers excluding the little finger, so that the thumb is not restricted. It is easier to pass the thumb through the band or string-like body 7, which is a ring-like body such as a rubber band, than through the cylindrical finger-passing portion 2. The band or string-like body 7 is sewn to the sheet-like body 4 with a seam 71. In this way, the large sheet-like body 4 does not move freely, but moves almost integrally with the palm, and it becomes easier to wipe sweat from the palm and to handle it. Only one of the bands or string-like bodies 6 and 7 may be provided.

[0050] Preferably, the hair wiper 1 of this embodiment is formed in a flesh-colored or beige (light brown) color. This is because if the hair wiper 1 is a relatively conspicuous color such as black or a primary color, it may attract the attention of other people, who may not know what the user is doing and may feel uncomfortable. Therefore, by making the hair wiper 1 flesh-colored or beige (light brown), it looks to other people as if they are combing their hair with their hands, which does not cause discomfort, and is preferable.
