Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
96 words
An extrusion forming a hair styler consisting of a generally cylindrical tube having a circular outer cross section, a plurality of radially, outwardly extending elongate ridges spaced equidistantly around the tube and extending longitudinally along the tube, the base of each ridge being integral with the tube, and a groove between each pair of adjacent ridges, each groove being formed between ridge projections extending transversely from adjacent sides of adjacent ridges and spaced from and adjacent to said base, said ridge projections each being defined by a pair of walls extending outwardly from the respective ridge.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
96 words
An extrusion forming a hair styler consisting of a generally cylindrical tube having a circular outer cross section, a plurality of radially, outwardly extending elongate ridges spaced equidistantly around the tube and extending longitudinally along the tube, the base of each ridge being integral with the tube, and a groove between each pair of adjacent ridges, each groove being formed between ridge projections extending transversely from adjacent sides of adjacent ridges and spaced from and adjacent to said base, said ridge projections each being defined by a pair of walls extending outwardly from the respective ridge.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
21 words
The extrusion of claim 1, wherein the facing ridge projections of adjacent ridges together form the groove between the adjacent ridges.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
17 words
