Barber or beauty chair: a chair for barbers or beauty salons which offers sitting for barbers while cutting hair.

Abstract

There are very few professions out there that require the person to stand in order for him/her to perform the duties. Beauty profession has been around for ages and yet no one has proposed any new inventions to help barbers perform their job sitting down. I am proposing a new invention which will allow barbers to sit down while cutting hair. This new invention is designed for the barber and it can only be used by barbers and beauty salons. Having the experience of working at a barber shop for many years and I know how exhausting it is for a barber to stand for long hours. I stared to work on this new invention with the purpose of easing the barbers job by making it possible for the barber to sit while cutting hair.

Description

Schematics 1 and 2, illustrate many familiar items which make up the new chair. Items such as the current barber chair, traditional bar, wheels, nuts, and powered motors are modified in different ways to make possible the new chair. In addition to schematic drawings of the new idea, I have also labeled and explained in further details what each item is and its purpose. I have also built a model of the idea and will provide pictures. Looking at the schematics carefully, there is a clear distinction between what I propose and what the barbers currently use (traditional barber chair).

The new Barber Beauty Chair is presented in two versions which both serve the same purpose but different designs and are different in ways which their purpose is delivered.

VERSION 1(schematic 1): Is somewhat simpler than version 2 and it is not motorized. Its movements are in a different form, which will be possible by the barber's foot pushing the chair left or right, while the barber is sitting down and cutting hair.

VERSION 2 (schematic 2): This version is somewhat sophisticated, which will include a silent motor. The motor will be at the base of the chair held by 5 wheels (see schematic 2: E, G). The motor will work with electricity which will function for the purpose of moving the new barber chair left or right around the client's chair. The new chair will also house two pedals which will allow the barber to move the chair left or right using his feet while sitting and cutting hair. The right pedal will allow the barber to move his chair which he is sitting to the right, while the left pedal will make possible the left movements using the left foot.

Schematic 1, Non-Motorized Model—Detailed Description of the Drawings

• A. Seat cushion for the barber to sit.
• B. Tube that mounts with E and connects with C.
• C. Bar that unites B with K, and this bar is the key idea of the invention which makes the idea of sitting possible.
• D. The connection hinge which can move freely around the chair.
• E. The main connection bar between the seat cusion of the barber and the bottom base of the chair.
• G. Threaded bar made to fit with the base.
• J. The bolt which connects E with the base.
• L. Mechanical hand pedal which will make possible the raising or lowering of A (lowering and rising barber's seat).
• N. The floor base of client's chair.
• K & M. Barber's left foot (when moving the seat manually).
• K & D. Barber's right foot (when moving the seat manually).
• M. Hinge that will allow the moving of D left or right freely.
• 1-5. Five wheels that will hold the base up when meeting the floor.

Schematic 2, Motorized Model—Detailed Description of the Drawings

• A. Seat cushion for the barber to sit.
• B. Tube that mounts with E and connects with C.
• C. Bar that unites B with K, and this bar is the key idea of the invention which makes the idea of sitting possible.
• D. The connection hinge which can move freely around the chair.
• E. The main connection bar between the seat cushion of the barber and the bottom base of the chair.
• G. Threaded bar made to fit with the base.
• J. The bolt which connects E with the base.
• L. Mechanical hand pedal which will make possible the raising or lowering of A (lowering and rising barber's seat).
• N. The floor base of client's chair.
• P & M. Left foot pedal.
• P & D. Right foot pedal.
• M. Hinge that will allow the moving of D left or right freely.
• 1-5. Five wheels which hold up the base and are powered by a motor to move left or right.

Barber Beauty Chair—I claim the idea as well as the model of a new barber chair which will be able to provide a seat for the barber and the client to sit on, while the barber cuts hair. This new idea will allow barber's to perform their duties around the salon while sitting down without any complications towards their performance.

Claims

1. The new chair—Is structured on six detailed objects which are currently found in the chairs used by dentists and doctors. Two different models are presented with the idea. 1. The base structure of the barber's chair that meets the ground floor, houses five wheels that are fixed to arc around the client's chair (see schematic 1 & 2).2. The base structure of the barber's chair that meets the ground has two versions: a. Schematic 1, barber's new chair will arc around the client's chair by the barber controlling the movement by feet.b. Schematic 2, barber's new chair will arc around the client's chair by an electric motor, which can be controlled by the barber's feet from two designed foot pedals in the base of the structure where barber's feet will rest while sitting down and performing their duties.3. In the middle of each of the two structures—one with an electrical motor and one without a motor—is an opening (schematic 1 & 2, G) which will house the bar for the sitting cushion. This will be able to move up or down based on the desired height by the barber.4. In schematic 1 & 2, C, is showing a bar which will make possible the connection of the barber's new chair with the client's chair. This bar is the most important detail of the new invention because it will make possible the idea of connecting the two chairs together in order to make the chair easily maneuverable by the barber, while at the same time keeping the right distance from the client to perform the job freely. This bar will also be adjustable in terms of the distance between the client's chair and the barber's new chair. At the ends of this bar is a removable hinge (schematic 1 & 2, D). This removable hinge will serve the purpose of splitting the two chairs (as desired by the barber) and to move the chair freely sideways.5. From my invention, the proposed idea of uniting the new barber chair with the traditional client chair will allow barber's all over the world to use this new chair for the purpose of sitting down and freely cutting hair. This idea will make it possible for barbers to finally sit while performing their duties with a type of chair specifically designed for them.6. Elements that make up the new invention: (schematic 1 & 2) a. A specific base which houses the 5 wheels that meet the floor.b. A long tube that houses the seating cushion (and will be able to be adjusted in its height).c. A seating cushion that can be adjusted in height.d. A bar that runs across from the client's chair to the barber's new chair. This will make possible the joining of the two chairs which will be unique in the idea. It will allow the barber to freely perform his or her duties.
