come AND BRUSH.
Application 'led. April 22, 1922. Serial No. 556,125.
Agreatest cause of falling hair and other diseases of the hair, in that itnot only attacks the hair at its root, but so closely cov-y ers the scalp as to effectively close the pores of the skin, causing constant itching. The usual effort of remedying this common ailment is by means of soaps or other massaging preparations, which have a tendency to take from the hair its natural oil and break up the particles of dandru or scurf in such a manner as to render their thorough removal from the hair very diflicult, especially -in the case ofa heavy set of hair.
With reference to live stock, a great deal of attention is given to their frequent currying and brushing, as the animals health is, in ,great part, due `to their being well cleaned; in fact, as much care should be taken of their cleaning as their feeding,'to produce the best results. In their present methods of cleaning, the curry combs are beaten or brushed to free them of the particles of foreign matter which has a tendency to fall or float about, whereupon, it
is again deposited on the same or nearby. animals.
To eliminate the aforementioned disadvantages in cleaning the scalp-of the dandrul` or scurf. together with the small particles of loose hair or other foreign matter in a sanitary manner, I have provided a comb or brush of the class described of any desirable metal suitable for die casting or rubber or gutta-percha which is provided with a plurality of hollow teeth, so connected with their body portion as to effectively break up the scur into minute particles, whereupon they are drawn through the various hollow teeth and into the usual vacuum bag 0r the like. Due to the novel arrangement of the ends ofthe teeth, it will Abe readily seen that they will thoroughly cleanse and invigorate the skin and prevent the scurf, loose hairs or Qther forelgn matter from flying aboutl when combing or brush- 1n iviy invention consists in the construction of a comb or brush dened by or included within the terms or language of the appended claims. y
In the drawing- Figure 1, is a view in perspective of a brush of one embodiment of my invention,-
as applied to a vacuum cleaner of the usual type,
Figure 2, is an endA view, partially in 'sec-v tion through the brush,
Figure 3, is a central section through one of the hollow teeth,
Figure 4, is an en d view thereof, and vFigure 5, is a' fragmentary view of a comb partially in section, showing ,another embodiment of my invention.
My invention in the form or embodiment shown in the drawing and briefly described 1n Figures 1 to 4f, comprises a body portion 10, which may be formed of sheet metal,
such as, aluminum or vthe like, and is prov -vided with a handle 11, and a suitable nipple for. securing one end of a flexible tube 12, the opposite end of the tube 12, be-
ing suitably vfastened to the vacuum Kcleaner 13, as at 14E. The outer edges of the body portion 10 are curved downwardly and inl wardly as` at 15, forming a substantially semi-circular groove 16.
For resiliently mounting the plurality of teeth so that the scalp will be gently massaged without any undue scraping, I provide a gum or rubber disc 17, which is slightly curved downward and is provided along its periphery with an upwardly extendingv and continuous bead 18, and is vadapted to snugly fit within the groove 16,
of the body portion 10, to prevent any leak# age of air around this joint. I prefer to make this an air tight joint without the necessity of gluing or cementing, so that the gum or rubber disc 17, may be readily Withdrawn and replaced as for cleaning.
The tubular teeth as shown in Figures 3 and 4, may be die-cast, drawn, or made in any other suitable manner, and comprises a substantially tubular portion 19, provided at its upper or flared end 20, with an annular l rim 21, for the purpose of being imbedded within and supported by the gum -or rubber disc 17, which may be molded aroundzsaid rim in ,any desired manner. yAn additional rim 22, may be provided a suiicient distance below thel rim 21, to more readily steady yeach tooth against the rubber disc.
To efectu'ally prevent-the linlet 'openings of the teeth 19, from being clogged .or o structed, Iy provide a pair of oppositely disposed and upwardly extendingopenings 23,
of sulicient distance from the dtip or pointed end 24, that will permit the eilicient combing and brushing of the` hair. I prefer to make the openings 23, tapered, increasing in size as they get further from the point 24, as is clearly shown in I1`igurel 4, so that the larger particles of scurfv` will be drawn' into the tubes 19, as readily as the smaller particles or dust, which will not have so farto travel before they come into direct contact with the vacuum.
In Figure 5, I Vhave shown another embodiment of my invention in the form of a comb which may be molded into a single form of rubber or like composition, or of any other suitablematerial and comprises a hollowed body portion 25, a handle 26, and a pluralityv of integrally formed tubular teeth 27, which are provided with inlet openings 28, as has already been described.
From the foregoing description it can b e readily seen that a comb or brush may be made into agreat number of desired shapes or .forms and of various kinds of material,
that will render them most elicient and sanitary.
It4 will be understood thatl` the embodiments of my invention I have shown and described herein is illustrative lonly and hence it is not to be taken as imposing any limitation or restriction upon the scope of my invention beyond what is required by the proper meaning of the followlngclaims.
I claima 1. A vacuum brush or the like, comprising a body portion and a plurality of tubular teeth carried by the body portion and communicating therewith, each of the teeth being provided near their outer end with oppositely disposed and upwardly converging openlngs.
2. A vacuum brush or the like, comprising a body portion and a plurality of tubular teeth carried by the body portion and communicating therewith, each of the teeth beand elongated openings which increase inl area as they extend away from the end.v
In testimony whereof I hereunto affix m`y signature.
ALICE N. WARREN.
