Abstract
A dreadlock grooming device including handle, a cylindrical housing attached to the handle, a power source, and a power control. The cylindrical housing includes a first-semi-arcuate-section and a second-semi-arcuate-section together forming a clamp of the cylindrical housing. The cylindrical housing includes a plurality of serrated blades positioned along an interior surface of the cylindrical housing provided to remove stray hairs from a section of hair within the clamp formed by the first-semi-arcuate-section and the second-semi-arcuate-section during use.
Claims19
A dreadlock grooming device, the dreadlock grooming device comprising:
- a handle,
- a cylindrical housing attached to said handle including,
- a first-semi-arcuate-section and a second-semi-arcuate-section together forming a clamp of said cylindrical housing,
- a power source configured to supply power to a motor of said dreadlock grooming device, and
- a power control configured to activate said motor of said dreadlock grooming device,
- wherein said cylindrical housing includes a plurality of serrated blades positioned along an interior surface of said cylindrical housing, said plurality of serrated blades include a circular band shape,
- wherein said cylindrical housing further includes guard rims on opposing sides of each one of said plurality of serrated blades,
- wherein said cylindrical housing is configured to removably receive a section of hair within said clamp formed by said first-semi-arcuate-section and said second-semi-arcuate-section, and
- wherein said plurality of serrated blades are motor driven and configured to open and alternatively close and trim stray hairs along a strand of said hair as said cylindrical housing is moved from a base of said section of hair to a root of said section of hair.
The dreadlock grooming device of claim 7, wherein said mounting shaft includes a pivot point.
The dreadlock grooming device of claim 7, wherein said cylindrical housing is perpendicularly mounted to said handle.
A dreadlock grooming device, the dreadlock grooming device comprising:
- a handle,
- a cylindrical housing attached to said handle including,
- a first-semi-arcuate-section and a second-semi-arcuate-section together forming a clamp of said cylindrical housing,
- a power source configured to supply power to a motor of said dreadlock grooming device, and
- a power control configured to activate said motor of said dreadlock grooming device,
- wherein said cylindrical housing includes a plurality of serrated blades positioned along an interior surface of said cylindrical housing, said plurality of serrated blades include a circular band shape;
- wherein said cylindrical housing further includes guard rims on opposing sides of each one of said plurality of serrated blades;
- wherein said cylindrical housing is configured to removably receive a section of hair within said clamp formed by said first-semi-arcuate-section and said second-semi-arcuate-section;
- wherein said plurality of serrated blades are motor driven and configured to open and alternatively close and trim stray hairs along a strand of said hair as said cylindrical housing is moved from a base of said section of hair to a root of said section of hair;
- wherein said section of hair includes a dreadlock;
- wherein said handle is ergonomically shaped;
- wherein said motor is housed within said handle;
- wherein said first-semi-arcuate-section and said second-semi-arcuate-section are connected at a hinge point;
- wherein said hinge point includes spring loaded hinges configured to maintain closing tension on said cylindrical housing;
- wherein said cylindrical housing is attachable to said handle via a mounting shaft extending from said handle;

- wherein each of said serrated blades sections comprise a top-row and a bottom-row, said top-row and said bottom-row are configured to mate when in a closed condition;
- wherein said guard rims extend from said interior surface of said cylindrical housing and form a buffer to prevent direct contact between said section of hair and said plurality of serrated blades allowing for removal of stray said hairs while maintaining a suitable orientation of a remaining portion of said section of hair;
- wherein said cylindrical housing includes an elongated hollow profile and is sized and configured to receive said section of hair and allow passage of said section of hair therethrough for trimming;
- wherein said cylindrical housing is bisected along a length forming said first-semi-arcuate-section and said second-semi-arcuate-section being of equal size;
- wherein said power control comprises a switch positioned on said handle;
- wherein said power source includes a power cord provided to supply power to said dreadlock grooming device;
- and
- wherein said power source includes a battery-power-source.
