This application claims the benefit and priority of Chinese patent application No. 202222155042.5, filed on Aug. 16, 2022, disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
The invention relates to a toy hairpin and a toy hairpin wearing device, and more particularly, relates to a toy hairpin which is more reasonable in structure, more convenient and faster to wear and remove, easier to make and lower in cost, and a toy hairpin wearing device.
Hairpins, as common articles for women, are used almost by every woman. The hairpins are of different types and have become indispensable ornaments of modern woman.
Toy hairpins often have a structure similar to that of hairpins commonly used in daily life, and are played and worn by kids. For example, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN204932857U, entitled “Handmade Colored Button Toy”, discloses a toy hairpin, which allows users to cling multiple buttons, which are fixed and stacked together through an elastic band 2, to a hairpin. This toy hairpin has a U-structure which is similar to that of hairpins commonly used in daily life and is a common hairpin structure.
However, such a toy hairpin is too simple in structure, thus having a few differences from common hairpins, being not interesting enough, poor in playability, and unable to arouse the interest of kids.
In view of this, the structure of existing toy hairpins is improved. For example, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN214677955U, entitled “Toy Hairpin and Toy Hairpin Wearing Device”, discloses a toy hairpin comprising a decoration unit and a clamping unit, wherein the clamping unit is disposed at the bottom of the decoration unit, a positioning groove to be clamped is formed between an outer surface of the decoration unit and an outer surface of the clamping unit, a silicone pad is installed on a bottom surface of the clamping unit, and at least one slit is formed in the middle of the silicone pad. A toy hairpin wearing device for the toy hairpin comprises a positioning seat and a wearing plate. Because the toy hairpin comprises the clamping unit with the silicone pad, users can gather part of their hairs together and then press the hairs into the slit in the silicone pad by means of the special toy hairpin wearing device; after the toy hairpin wearing device is removed, the slit in the silicone pad form a deformable hair clamping to clamping the hairs, such that the toy hairpin is worn on the hairs. The toy hairpin is convenient and fast to operate, easy to use and suitable for most kids, has good playability and is interesting enough.
However, the applicant finds that although this toy hairpin has good playability and is interesting enough, the silicone pad with the slit needs to be fixed to the bottom surface of the clamping unit, so the toy hairpin has too many machining steps and is high in cost; after repeated use of the silicone pad, the hair clamping capacity of the slit of the silicone pad will be weakened, at this moment, the toy hairpin can no longer be used and has to be discarded, and a new toy hairpin is needed.
A first objective of the invention is to provide a toy hairpin with a reasonable structure. The toy hairpin is more reasonable in structure, more convenient and faster to wear and remove, easier to make, and lower in cost. The technical solution adopted by the invention is as follows:
A toy hairpin with a reasonable structure comprises a decoration unit and a clamping unit, wherein the clamping unit is disposed at a bottom of the decoration unit, a positioning groove is formed between an outer surface of the decoration unit and an outer surface of the clamping unit, the clamping unit comprises a passive clamping part and an active clamping part, a connecting surface to be connected to the decoration unit and a clamping groove for receiving clamped hairs are disposed on two sides of the passive clamping part respectively, the connecting surface of the passive clamping part is connected to the decoration unit, an outer edge of the clamping groove of the passive clamping part is provided with a clamping step, the active clamping part comprises a base plate and at least two clamping hooks capable of being clamped on the clamping step, and the base plate of the active clamping part is matched with the clamping groove of the passive clamping part to clamp the middle of the hairs. Because all the clamping hooks are clamped on the clamping step when clamped, and the base plate of the active clamping part is matched with the clamping groove of the passive clamping part to clamping the middle of hairs, users can drive the active clamping part and the passive clamping part to move close to each other manually or through a special tool to clamp all the clamping hooks on the clamping step 1020111, such that the toy hairpin is worn on the hairs of users.
Preferably, the clamping hooks are arc-shaped, such that the clamping hooks can be better clamped on the clamping step.
Preferably, the active clamping part comprises two clamping hooks, and two gaps allowing the hairs to enter or come out of the clamping groove are reserved between the two clamping hooks. Hairs enter the clamping groove through one of the two gaps, and leave the clamping groove through the other gap.
Preferably, at least two stop bars are disposed in the clamping groove, and each of the stop bars has an end fixed to a bottom surface of an inner cavity of the clamping groove, as well as an end stretching out of an opening of the clamping groove and abutting against the base plate of the active clamping part. The stop bars are used for pressing against the active clamping part, such that when the clamping hooks are clamped on the clamping step, the active clamping part will not shake, thus keeping the clamping hooks and the clamping step in the clamped state; and a proper distance is maintained between the active clamping part and the passive clamping part, such that the gaps between the two clamping hooks can exit stably, thus protecting hairs against damage.
Preferably, at least one positioning hole used for positioning the base plate is formed in the base plate of the active clamping part. The base plate of the active clamping part can be positioned on a special tool through the positioning hole, such that users can wear the toy hairpin on their hairs.
A second objective of the invention is to provide a toy hairpin wearing device which is used by users to wear a toy hairpin on their hairs. The technical solution adopted by the invention is as follows:
A toy hairpin wearing device for the toy hairpin comprises a positioning plate and a wearing plate, wherein a left end of the wearing plate is hinged to a left end of the positioning plate, a toy hairpin body clamping member capable of clamping the positioning groove of the toy hairpin is disposed at a right end of the positioning plate, and a base plate positioning seat used for positioning the base plate of the active clamping portion is disposed at a right end of an inner side, facing the positioning plate, of the wearing plate. Before use, a user inserts the toy hairpin body clamping member into the positioning groove of the toy hairpin, such that the decoration unit and the passive clamping part of the clamping unit of the toy hairpin are disposed at the right end of the positioning plate. Then, the user places the base plate of the active clamping part of the clamping unit of the toy hairpin on the base plate positioning seat of the wearing plate. Next, the user places part of his/her hairs between the passive clamping part and the active clamping part of the clamping unit, then holds the positioning plate and the wearing plate of the toy hairpin wearing device to force them to rotate toward each other until all the clamping hooks of the active clamping part are clamped on the clamping step of the passive clamping part of the clamping unit. Finally, the user enables the right end of the positioning plate and the right end of the wearing plate to move away from each other, and pulls the toy hairpin body clamping member out of the positioning groove of the toy hairpin, such that the toy hairpin is worn on hairs of the user.
Preferably, the toy hairpin body clamping member is U-shaped.
Preferably, the base plate positioning seat is provided with a base plate positioning groove allowing the base plate of the toy hairpin to be placed therein. The base plate positioning groove is used for positioning and limiting the base plate, such that the base plate is prevented from being separated from the base plate positioning seat.
Preferably, at least one positioning plate to be inserted into the positioning hole of the base plate is disposed on a bottom surface of the base plate positioning groove, the number of the positioning plates is equal to the number of the positioning holes, the positioning plates are in one-to-one correspondence with the positioning holes, and the when the base plate of the toy hairpin is placed in the base plate positioning groove, the positioning plate is inserted into the corresponding positioning hole. The positioning plates are inserted into the corresponding positioning holes to better limit and position the base plate so as to prevent the base plate from shaking, such that the active clamping part can better be clamped with the passive clamping portion when the toy hairpin is worn, and thus, the toy hairpin can be smoothly worn on the hairs of users.
Preferably, the positioning plate and the corresponding positioning hole are identical in shape.
Compared with the prior device, the invention has the following beneficial effects: The structure of the clamping unit is improved, and the passive clamping part and the active clamping part that can be clamped together are used, such that the toy hairpin is more reasonable in structure, more convenient and faster to wear and remove, easier to make, and lower in cost; the toy hairpin wearing device is easier to operate; and the active clamping part can be changed easily when damaged or lost, such that the use cost is effectively reduced.

During use, a user inserts the toy hairpin body clamping member 2011 into the positioning groove 103 of the toy hairpin 1, such that the decoration unit 101 and the passive clamping part 10201 of the clamping unit 102 of the toy hairpin 1 are disposed at the right end of the positioning plate 201.
Then, the user places the base plate 102021 of the active clamping part 10202 of the clamping unit 102 of the toy hairpin 1 on the base plate positioning seat 2021 of the wearing plate 202.
Next, the user places part of his/her hairs between the passive clamping part 10201 and the active clamping part 10202 of the clamping unit 102, then holds the positioning plate 201 and the wearing plate 202 of the toy hairpin wearing device 2 to force them to rotate toward each other until all the clamping hooks 102022 of the active clamping part 10202 are clamped on the clamping step 1020111 of the passive clamping part 10201 of the clamping unit 102.
Finally, the user enables the right end of the positioning plate 201 and the right end of the wearing plate 202 to move away from each other, and pulls the toy hairpin body clamping member 2011 out of the positioning groove 103 of the toy hairpin 1, such that the toy hairpin 1 is worn on hairs of the user.
Compared with the previous utility model patent (CN214677955U) of the applicant, such a structural design replaces the silicone pad with the active clamping part 10202, such that users can place part of their hairs between the positioning plate 201 and the wearing plate 202 more conveniently and rapidly, so as to wear the toy hairpin on their hairs quickly. When the toy hairpin needs to be removed from the hairs, the users just need to hold and then pull the toy hairpin, and then the toy hairpin can be removed from their hairs easily, which can also be completed by a kid independently; and the hairs of the users are protected against damage caused by an excessively large clamping force of the toy hairpin, so the safety performance is high. The toy hairpin has a more reasonable structure, thus being easier to make, lower in cost, and convenient and fast to wear and remove; and the active clamping part 10202 can be easily replaced with a new active clamping part 10202 when damaged or lost.
