Abstract
A transportable holder for an electrically powered heated styling instrument including an insulated body portion for containing a recently used styling instrument that is still hot, with the walled body portion having insulating properties to prevent heat transmission from the instrument to the exterior of the body portion which may be contacted for handling by an individual. A closure member is also provided to secure the instrument within the holder and cord holding hooks are provided to retain the cord on the holder.
Claims7
A holder for an electrically powered heated styling instrument comprising:
- a) a walled body portion defining a space therein, with an opening therein to permit access to said body space for storage and retrieval of an instrument to be held therein;
- and
- b) a closure member extending from the walled body portion proximate to said body opening for removably covering said body opening;
- c) wherein said walled body portion comprises one or more of a heat insulating material and a heat absorbing material to maintain the outer wall from significant heat transference from said instrument;
- and
- d) wherein said instrument includes a power cord and wherein said closure comprises a pair of flaps defining a groove therebetween for accommodating a cord of said instrument.
A holder for an electrically powered heated styling instrument comprising:
- a) a walled body portion having a hollow space therein, said walled body portion comprising an interior wall defining said hollow space and an exterior wall surrounding said interior wall;
- b) said body portion having at least one opening therein for access to said hollow space to permit storage of said instrument therein;
- c) wherein said interior wall comprises a material which will substantially prevent heat transference therethrough in relation to said exterior wall;
- d) a closure member having at least one free end and another end which is fixedly attached to said body portion proximate to said body opening, said closure member being flexibly provided to be movable over said body opening to cover said body opening and movable away from said body opening to permit access to said body opening;
- e) said closure member including securing means for selectively attaching the closure member to said body portion to secure the closure member over said body opening and selectively detaching said closure member from said body portion to expose said body opening and permit access thereto;
- f) said closure member further including a groove disposed therein for accommodating a power cord of said instrument when said closure member is attached to said body portion;
- g) cord holding means for retaining the cord of said instrument, said cord holding means comprising a pair of L-shaped hooks attached to and extending from said body portion, said hooks each having a horizontally extending portion and a vertically extending portion connected thereto, said vertically extending portion of each said hook being outwardly extending in relation to said other hook;
- and
- h) wherein said closure member securing means comprise a surface of hooks and a second surface of pile wherein one of said first surface and said second surface is provided on said body portion and the other of said first surface and said second surface is provided on said closure member, wherein said first and second surfaces are matingly associated for selective attachment and detachment from one another.
