1,175,940. Wig holder; drying wigs. BRAC A.G. 23 Oct., 1968 [6 Sept., 1968], No. 50329/68. Heading A4V. A wig holder, particularly for use in drying a wig, comprises a head-shaped wig-supporting member at least part of which is permeable to air, with an air inlet aperture at the base of the holder. The wig holder 1, shown inserted in a drying apparatus 2, consists of a face part 1c and a neck part 1d having an air inlet 1a on its underside. The areas over 1c and 1d are air-impermeable, while the rest of the holder, corresponding to the area covered by the wig, allows free passage of air. The holder is preferably made of non-rusting mesh, covered where necessary with plastics material; alternatively, the air-permeable parts may be of porous plastics material. The drying apparatus 2 consists of a cup-shaped housing 2a having a rim with air inlets 2c and enclosing a heating element 3. A fan 4a, on the armature 4b of an electric motor 4, is mounted within a cover 2b, which has a lower aperture 8a and an upper aperture co-operating with the air inlet 1a of the wig holder. In use, the wig holder, carrying a wig for drying, is secured upon the cover 2b by pins 1b and then enclosed in a perforated plastics dome 10. A current of hot air from the fan and heater is passed through the holder to dry the wig. The dome 10 may have hooks 12 for carrying hair pieces to be dried. |
