Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technology of wigs that are used to create voluminous hairstyles and to hide gray hair. [Background technology]

[0002] The applicant's own product, "Product Name: HAIRMATE Chacha" ("HAIRMATE chacha" and "chacha" are registered trademarks), which went on sale in March 2023, is known.

[0003] Until now, most wigs were fastened with clip pins, but the company's product does not use any pins or clips at all. Instead, it uses a flat attachment that functions like a hook-and-loop fastener and is attached to a roughly flat wig base (see also Patent Document 1). When placed over the parting of the hair to be covered (this includes one's own hair, transplanted human hair or artificial hair, and other wigs; the same applies below), the attachment member (the inverted mushroom-shaped protruding member) of the flat attachment catches the hair and the wig is attached. In this way, a wig is realized that not only achieves a natural finish and hides troublesome gray hair, but also adds volume to the top of the head, allowing you to create a fluffy, ideal style just by placing it over the parting and pressing it down.

[0004] Normally, wigs are designed to be worn at a specific location, such as a parting or a whorl, but the company's product does not have pins or clips and holds the hair like hook-and-loop tape, so it can be worn vertically, horizontally, or diagonally to target problem areas. One of the main purposes is to hide gray hair at the parting, but those who want to hide the hairline can wear it closer to the front of the head, and those who want to hide the whorl can wear it closer to the back of the head. Furthermore, since it requires only a small amount of hair, it can be worn on any part of the head without feeling unnatural. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 7457269 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] However, in the conventional technology related to the above conventional products, the wig base and the attachment attached to the wig base are approximately flat, and therefore, for example, they must be placed in the center of the parting and pressed down to suppress the rebound of the hair growing toward the surrounding space of the head, which creates the problem that the hair near the parting is crushed and looks unnatural (see Figure 7). In addition, since the wig base and the attachment body attached to the wig base are generally flat, in many cases only the two ends of the generally flat plate are in contact with and attached to the hair, and this, combined with the repulsion of the hair, can cause the wig to slip or result in an insufficient fit or stability. While conventional wig bases were designed to conform to the curvature of the scalp, this invention is a revolutionary idea in that it is attached to the hair rather than the scalp. It is a high level that was achieved through trial and error and based on the high technical capabilities of a manufacturer, and boasts a level of realism and perfection as a product that could not be realized through an individual idea.

[0007] To provide a wearing body, a wig base, a wig, etc., which looks natural even when worn without crushing the hair, reduces the rebound of the hair, and increases the area where an attachment member catches the hair, thereby improving the fit. [Means for solving the problem]

[Figure 7] FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a conventional wig in use. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0017] Hereinafter, a wig 1 according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that the description of the parts that overlap with the conventional technology related to the above-mentioned conventional products will be omitted as appropriate.

[0018] The wig 1 of this embodiment shown in FIG. 1 includes a wig base 10 for a wig, which is also shown in FIG.

[0019] The wig base 10 is configured by attaching a group of human hair or artificial hair (hair planted) to the peripheral space of the head. In this embodiment, the wig base 10 is a substantially rectangular, substantially flat member (length dimension in the long direction is about 90 mm, length dimension in the short direction is about 20 mm) with rounded corners, folded in half along the center line in the vertical direction in FIG. 1, and formed into a substantially V-shape (angle is not limited, but is preferably 30 degrees to 150 degrees, and more preferably 45 degrees to 120 degrees) as shown in FIG. 2(b). It may be folded in advance at the manufacturing stage using ultrasonic waves or the like to form a substantially V-shape. In this embodiment, the wig base 10 is made of a non-stretchable net having a predetermined mesh, and the material is, for example, a synthetic resin fiber material, but the material is not limited, such as a stretchable net or artificial skin made of a synthetic resin solution, and the net may be double-layered. The shape, length, etc. of the wig base 10 are not limited as long as the effects of the present invention are achieved, and any shape and length may be applied. Preferably, the length of the approximately flat plate member before folding is about 20 to 120 mm in the long direction, and about 10 to 30 mm in the short direction. The wig base 10 also includes a wearing body 20.

[0020] The attachment 20 is a substantially rectangular member (length dimension in the long direction is approximately 80 mm, length dimension in the short direction is approximately 18 mm) in plan view folded approximately in half along the center line in the vertical direction in FIG. 1, and is formed into a substantially V-shape (angle is not limited, but is preferably 30 degrees to 150 degrees, and more preferably 45 degrees to 120 degrees) as shown in FIG. 2(b). A slit may be formed in the center in advance during the manufacturing stage, or the attachment 20 may be folded using ultrasonic waves or the like to form a substantially V-shape. In this embodiment, the attachment 20 is made of resin, but the material is not limited. The shape, length, etc. of the mounting body 20 are not limited as long as the effects of the present invention are achieved, and any shape and length may be applied. Preferably, the member before being folded has a length dimension in the long direction of about 20 to 120 mm, and a length dimension in the short direction of about 10 to 30 mm. As shown in FIG. 3 in a side view, the attachment body 20 includes a connecting portion 21 provided on the side facing the space around the head, and an attachment member 22 provided on the side facing the head. The connecting part 21 is composed of an adhesive surface that connects to the head side of the wig base 10. The connecting part 21 may be formed by a wide variety of known techniques such as a hook-and-loop fastener structure, a button, a magnet, etc., as long as it is connectable. The connecting part 21 may be configured to be repeatedly connected / detached to the head side of the wig base 10. For example, when the connecting part 21 is an adhesive surface, a protective tape may be attached to the adhesive surface of the connecting part 21 when the wig 1 is purchased, and the protective tape may be removed before use to connect the attachment 20 to the wig base 10. Furthermore, an additional attachment 20 with a protective tape attached to the adhesive surface of the connecting part 21 may be included as a replacement at the time of purchase or sold separately. The attachment member 22 has a function of being attached to the hair, and is configured with a plurality of projections protruding toward the head in an inverted mushroom shape at a predetermined density. The mushroom cap-like bulges catch (grab) the hair, allowing the wig 1 to be repeatedly attached to and detached from the hair. The attachment member 22 can be of any configuration or shape as long as it can be attached to the hair so that it does not easily come off, and a wide range of well-known technologies may be applied.

[0021] Next, a state in which the wig 1 of this embodiment is used will be described. Fig. 1(b) is a schematic diagram showing the wig 1 of this embodiment in use. Compared to Fig. 7, which is a schematic diagram showing a conventional wig in use, the wig base 10 and the wearing body 20 connected to the wig base are approximately V-shaped, so that when placed at the center of a parting in the head, for example, the wearing body 20, wig base 10, and wig 1 can be worn close to the scalp (close to the roots) of the hair that branches out to the left and right from the parting to form an approximately V-shape or is set to flow, following the shape of the hair. Compared to Figure 7, which is a schematic diagram of a conventional wig in use, the hair is not crushed into an unnatural state, nor is it so that only the two ends of the wearing body (attachment member) hold the hair. As shown in Figure 1(b), the wig looks natural even when worn without crushing the hair, and it has been successful in reducing hair repulsion and increasing the area over which the wearing body 20 (attachment member 22) holds the hair, improving the fit. In addition, since the attachment body 20 (mounting member 22) is attached to the hair, it is basically suspended above the skin (scalp), and the pointed, approximately V-shaped portion does not come into contact with the skin of the head, making it comfortable to use.

[0022] According to the present embodiment described above, the wig looks natural even when worn without crushing the hair, and also reduces the rebound of the hair and increases the area over which the wearing body 20 (attachment member 22) captures the hair, making the wig 1 less likely to slip off and improving the fit and stability.

[0023] Next, a wig 1 according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. The second embodiment differs from the wig 1 according to the first embodiment described above in terms of the configuration corresponding to the wig base 10, but other basic configurations are the same, and therefore repeated explanations will be omitted. The portion corresponding to the wig base in this embodiment is made up of a plurality of wig base components 100 which, when combined, have substantially the same shape as the wig base 10 in the first embodiment. The main purpose is to not permit embodiments that circumvent the scope of the rights by dividing the wig base 10 of the first embodiment into multiple components, such as by dividing it into left and right or front and back. By combining a plurality of wig base components 100, a shape substantially equivalent to the wig base 10 of the first embodiment is realized, and a shape that performs the same function is broadly included. For example, it is not only possible to combine two wig base components 100 divided into two parts, left and right, so as to be in close contact with each other, but also to combine them so as to leave a predetermined gap. It is not limited to two divisions, but also includes three or more divisions, and the shape of each divided wig base component 100 is arbitrary. In this embodiment, the mounting body 20 is assumed to be an integrated type similar to the mounting body 20 in the first embodiment. A pattern in which the mounting body has a divided shape will be described later.

[0024] Next, a wig 1 according to a third embodiment of the present invention will be described. The third embodiment differs from the wig 1 according to the first embodiment described above in the configuration corresponding to the wearing body 20, but other basic configurations are the same, so duplicated descriptions will be omitted. The portion corresponding to the mounting body in this embodiment is made up of a plurality of mounting body components 200 which, when combined, have substantially the same shape as the mounting body 20 in the first embodiment. The main purpose is to not permit an embodiment that circumvents the scope of the right by dividing the mounting body 20 of the first embodiment into a plurality of components, for example, by dividing it into left and right or front and rear. By combining a plurality of mounting body constituents 200, a shape substantially equivalent to the mounting body 20 of the first embodiment is realized, and a shape that performs an equivalent function is broadly included. For example, it is not only possible to combine two mounting body constituents 200 divided into two parts, left and right, so as to be in close contact with each other, but also to combine them so as to leave a predetermined gap. It is not limited to two divisions, but also includes three or more divisions, and the shape of each divided mounting body constituent 200 is arbitrary. In this embodiment, the wig base 10 is an integrated type similar to the wig base 10 of the first embodiment.

[0025] Next, a wig 1 according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described. This is a pattern that combines the second and third embodiments described above. The portion corresponding to the wig base in this embodiment is made up of a plurality of wig base components 100 which, when combined, have substantially the same shape as the wig base 10 in the first embodiment. The portion corresponding to the mounting body in this embodiment is made up of a plurality of mounting body components 200 which, when combined, have substantially the same shape as the mounting body 20 in the first embodiment. As shown in Figures 4 and 5, for example, two wig base components 100 and a wearing body component 200 each having a shape divided into two parts, left and right or front and back, can be combined so as to be in close contact with each other, and a wide range of combinations are also included, such as those in which a predetermined gap is left between them.

[0026] Next, a wig 1 according to a fifth embodiment of the present invention will be described. The shape of the wig base 10 or a combination of multiple wig base components 100 (which when combined form substantially the same shape as the wig base 10) and the shape of the wearing body 20 or a combination of multiple wearing body components 200 (which when combined form substantially the same shape as the wearing body 20) differ from those of the wigs 1 according to the first to fourth embodiments described above, but other basic configurations are the same, and therefore repeated explanations will be omitted. As shown in Figure 5, the wig base 10 or a combination of multiple wig base components 100, and the wearing body 20 or a combination of multiple wearing body components 200 of this embodiment are formed into an approximately U-shape (Figure 5(a)), an approximately arc-shape (Figure 5(b)), an approximately W-shape (Figure 5(c)), an approximately wave-shape (Figure 5(d)), etc., when both ends are positioned on the side of the space surrounding the head. The main purpose of this is to not permit implementations that circumvent the scope of rights by modifying the approximate V-shape of the relevant portion in the first to fourth embodiments while achieving the same function.

[0027] In addition, the height positions of the ends of both ends of the approximately U-shape, approximately arc-shaped, approximately W-shape, or approximately wave-shaped shape (= the length dimensions of both left and right ends) may be different, including the approximately V-shape in the first to fourth embodiments.

[0028] Next, a wig 1 according to a sixth embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the wig 1 according to the first embodiment described above, the wig base 10 and the wearing body 20 are separate bodies, but in this embodiment, the wearing body 20 is integrated as a part of the wig base 10', so to speak. However, other basic configurations are the same, so duplicated explanations will be omitted. The main purpose is to not permit an embodiment that circumvents the scope of the patent by incorporating the configuration of the wearing body 20 of the first embodiment into the wig base 10 to form a wig base 10' that is integrated as part of the wig base.

[0029] Next, a wig 1 according to a seventh embodiment of the present invention will be described. The wig 1 according to the sixth embodiment is different from the wig 1 according to the above-mentioned sixth embodiment in the configuration corresponding to the wig base 10', but other basic configurations are the same, so that the overlapping description will be omitted. The portion corresponding to the wig base of this embodiment is made up of a plurality of wig base components 100' which, when combined, have substantially the same shape as the wig base 10' of the sixth embodiment. The main purpose of this patent is to not permit embodiments that circumvent the scope of the patent right by dividing the wig base 10' of the sixth embodiment into multiple components, for example, by dividing it into left and right or front and back. By combining a plurality of wig base components 100', a shape substantially equivalent to the wig base 10' of the sixth embodiment is realized, and a shape that performs the same function is broadly included. For example, not only two wig base components 100' divided into two parts, left and right, are combined so as to be in close contact with each other, but also a form in which they are combined so as to leave a predetermined gap is broadly included. Not only two parts, but also three or more parts are included, and the shape of each divided wig base component 100 is also arbitrary.

[0030] Next, a wig 1 according to an eighth embodiment of the present invention will be described. The shape of the wig base 10' or the shape of a plurality of combined wig base structures 100' (which, when combined, form substantially the same shape as the wig base 10') differs from the wigs 1 according to the sixth and seventh embodiments described above, but other basic structures are the same, and therefore repeated explanations will be omitted. The wig base 10' of this embodiment or a combination of multiple wig base components 100' is formed into an approximately U-shape, an approximately arc-shape, an approximately W-shape, an approximately wave-shape, etc., with both ends positioned on the surrounding space side of the head. The main purpose of this is to not permit implementations that circumvent the scope of the patent by changing the approximate V-shape of the relevant portion in the sixth and seventh embodiments while achieving the same function.

[0031] In addition, the height positions of the ends of both ends of the approximately U-shape, approximately arc-shaped, approximately W-shape or approximately wave-shaped shape (= the length dimensions of both left and right ends) may be different, including the approximately V-shape in the sixth and seventh embodiments.

[0032] Although not specifically illustrated, the present invention may be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. The size, number, material, position, etc. of each component may be modified as appropriate as long as the effects of the present invention are achieved. [Explanation of symbols]
