RU2827349C2 - Modular hair length measuring device - Google Patents

Abstract

FIELD: equipment for hair care, hair cutting and shaving.

SUBSTANCE: field of application of the proposed invention relates to a measuring device aimed at measuring hair lengths when a hairdresser is cutting hair, for controlling the obtained result and comparing it for compliance with the cutting parameters specified in the technical documentation. Simultaneously, the hairdresser is able to compare the sizes of hair lengths and proportions of the haircut specified in the technical documentation of the enterprise with the individual external features of the anatomical structure of each person, namely such features as head shape and size, neck length and volume, back height and width, and so forth. Modular hair length measuring device consists of one upper base fixed around the neck of a person, a second lower base having the possibility of being fixed in two positions, on the waist around the waist or around the hips, two elements - elastic belts, connecting the first and second bases to each other in such a way that putting the device on the human body, one of the belts is located along the spine on the back side, and the other belt along a line drawn from the side of the abdomen on the body of a person and passing through two points, one of the points is located in the centre of the base of the chin, the other point is in the centre of the abdomen, wherein elastic belts are provided with measuring scale made up of 18 equal-sized divisions. Size of each division has no specific mathematical value, since the measuring scale is applied on elastic belts having the property of stretching and contracting in accordance with the individual dimensions of the anatomical structure of each person.

EFFECT: providing measurement of hair length when a hairdresser is cutting hair for control and comparison of the obtained result for compliance with parameters of the haircut model specified by the technical documentation of the enterprise.

Description

The scope of application of the technical solution of the claimed device is reflected in the index section of the current edition of the International Patent Classification and pertains to group G01 measurement; testing. It is designated by index G01B measurement of length, thickness or similar linear dimensions; measurement of angles; measurement of areas; measurement of surface or contour irregularities.

No analogues of the claimed invention have been found.

The provisions of the State Standard of the Russian Federation R 51142-98 establish that hairdressing services serve to ensure the satisfaction of the aesthetic and hygienic needs of the client, performed in accordance with the requirements of technical documentation establishing technical, technological, design and other characteristics of the services rendered. A beauty salon is an organization that provides hairdressing services of any complexity and high quality at a high artistic level, including the performance of original, unique haircuts that correspond to modern and promising fashion trends and individual customer requests.

As a rule, a beauty salon selects a model range of haircuts for short, medium and long hair lengths to provide hairdressing services. Each haircut model is performed by the enterprise's hairdresser in accordance with the provisions of the technical documentation, while observing the design proportions and sizes of the parts and the shape of the haircut, this follows from the rule approved by the Russian Federation, expressed in the provisions of the State Standard of the Russian Federation R 51142-98.

The application of the claimed invention is aimed at measuring the length of hair at the moment when a hairdresser performs a haircut, to control and compare the obtained result for compliance with the parameters of the haircut model specified by the technical documentation of the enterprise. At the same time, the hairdresser gets the opportunity to compare the sizes of the haircut proportions reflected in the technological documentation of the enterprise with the individual features of the anatomical structure of each person's body, namely, such as the shape and size of the head, the length of the neck, the length of the back, etc.

Today, in beauty salons, hairdressers of enterprises use a sequence of professional actions for hair cutting, performed in accordance with the terms of the technical documentation of the organization, implementing the only available method of control over the obtained result of the work performed - visual. This method of control does not provide for the use of measuring instruments, it is carried out approximately, based on the collection of inaccurate data. The hairdresser, controlling his activity, relies only on his opinion and his professional experience, which significantly complicates the precise execution of the haircut design, its compliance with the technological conditions reflected in the technical documentation.

To control the preservation of the dimensions of the design proportions of the haircut, the modular ruler for measuring the length of hair is equipped with two elastic belts located on opposite sides of the device and attached with one end to the upper base, and the other to the lower base of the claimed device. To use the measuring device in measuring the length of hair, a measuring scale is applied to the elastic belts of the modular ruler on the outside. The measuring scale is 18 divisions equal in size. The size of each division does not have a specific mathematical value, since the measuring scale is applied to the elastic surface of the belts, which have the property of stretching or contracting in accordance with the individual characteristics of the anatomical structure of the body of each person.

The technical result of using the claimed invention is achieved by the fact that hair cutting is performed by a hairdresser using a modular ruler for measuring hair length. Before starting hair cutting, the device is put on and secured by the hairdresser on the body of a person so that the upper base of the device is located around the neck, and the lower base around the waist or hips, depending on the selected length of hair that makes up the shape of the haircut, the elastic belts of the device with a measuring scale are located, one belt along the spine from the back, and the other simultaneously along the line, schematically connecting two points marked in the center of the lower base of the chin and the navel on the human body.

The claimed invention is explained in the attached graphic materials:

- the graphic image - Fig. 5 shows several examples of the use of a modular ruler for measuring the length of hair at different lengths relative to the proportions of the human body;

- the graphic image - Fig. 6 shows an example of using a modular ruler for measuring hair length with the lower base of the device located around the waist on the human body;

- the graphic image - Fig. 7 shows an example of using a modular ruler for measuring hair length with the lower base of the device located around the hips on the human body.

The claimed invention is a measuring device intended for measuring hair lengths or individual elements of the overall haircut design. The modular ruler for measuring hair length consists of one upper base fixed around a person's neck, a second lower base capable of being fixed in two positions, on a person's lower back around the waist or lower around the hips, two elements - elastic belts connecting the first and second bases together in such a way that when putting the device on a person's body, one of the belts is located along the spine from the back side, and the other belt along a line schematically drawn from the abdomen side on a person's torso and passing through two points, one of the points is located in the center of the base of the chin on one side and a point in the center of the abdomen on the other side.
