Abstract

In one aspect, the present disclosure provides a housing for a vacuum filter assembly. The housing may include a top piece with an upper portion defining a top wall of a cavity and a generally circular perimeter forming a side wall of the cavity. The perimeter of the top piece may be configured to receive a filter member. An input aperture may extend through the top piece and may be arranged for communication with the cavity. A spindle may extend into the cavity from the top wall of the cavity such that a material drawn into the cavity by a vacuum force moves in a spiral vortex through the cavity about the spindle.

IPC Classes  ?

• B26B 19/44 - Suction means for collecting severed hairs or for the skin to be shaved
• B01D 46/00 - Filters or filtering processes specially modified for separating dispersed particles from gases or vapours

Abstract

A filter assembly for use with a vacuum apparatus and a hair clipper is disclosed. The assembly includes a top piece, a bottom piece, and a filter member. The top piece is formed having a generally circular perimeter with an inlet aperture located on the perimeter such that the inlet aperture is adapted for tangential acceptance of a vacuum hose. The specific arrangement of components, including the tangential position of the aperture, creates a hair collecting vortex within the assembly when a vacuum source is attached and activated.

Abstract

A system for clipping and removing hair clippings from a clipped site is disclosed. The system includes a suction member having an integrated blade member, a hose member in communication with the suction member, and a vacuum source connected to the hose member. This device is particularly useful for use in clipping and removing the hair clippings from shaved surgical patients in a manner that prevents the hair clippings from falling into the patient's surroundings.

Abstract

A method of collecting cut hair is disclosed. The steps include providing a vacuum source and a filter assembly having a top piece, a bottom piece, and a filter member. The assembly has a generally circular perimeter. A vacuum is applied to the assembly interior, and the cut hairs are moved through the aperture and into the assembly. The cut hairs are circulated in a collecting vortex and collected on the filter member.

Abstract

A device for removing hair clippings is disclosed. The device comprises a suction member having an opening, a top side and a bottom side, a hose attachment member connected to the suction member, and a fastening member adapted for affixing onto a hair clipper, with the fastening member being attached to the bottom side of the suction member. This device is particularly useful for removing the hair clippings from shaved surgical patients in a manner that prevents the hair clippings from falling into the patient's surroundings and thus prevent contamination.
