Liquid dispensing comb

Abstract

Disclosed embodiments describe a device for facilitating the combing of hair. The device includes several teeth extending from a lower side of the device opposite a fluid tight reservoir. The reservoir is adapted to expel a fluid when compressed. During operation the fluid is made to exit the device by compressing the reservoir forcing the fluid out of apertures formed between the teeth the fluid facilitates moving the teeth through hair for easier combing.

1 . A device for dispensing fluid while combing hair, comprising:
 an elongate comb body, comprising:
 a backbone running the length of the comb body, the backbone comprising a top side and a bottom side, and 
 a distribution channel extending the length of the top side of the backbone; 
   a reservoir comprised of a compressible material, in fluid communication with the distribution channel, the reservoir positioned on a top side of the comb operable to be compressed directly by a user;   a plurality of teeth positioned along the backbone extending from the bottom side of the backbone in a parallel relation to one another, opposite the reservoir;   at least one aperture in fluid communication with the reservoir adapted to dispense a fluid.   
     
     
         2 . The device of  claim 1  further comprising an aperture formed through an end of the reservoir and a removable body engaged in the aperture. 
     
     
         3 . The device of  claim 2  further comprising dispensing holes formed through a surface on at least one of the teeth. 
     
     
         4 . The device of  claim 3  wherein the teeth are substantially hollow and define a void in fluid communication with the distribution channel. 
     
     
         5 . The device of  claim 4  wherein the reservoir is removable attached along the length of the backbone. 
     
     
         6 . The device of  claim 5  wherein the reservoir and the comb body form a substantially fluid-tight seal when attached. 
     
     
         7 . The device of  claim 6  wherein the dispensing holes are positioned along the interior sides of teeth, such that fluid is dispensed between teeth. 
     
     
         8 . The device of  claim 7  wherein the dispensing holes are angled to dispense fluid toward the backbone. 
     
     
         9 . The device of  claim 7  further including apertures along the bottom surface of the backbone. 
     
     
         10 . The device of  claim 9  wherein the teeth are substantially pyramidal in cross-section. 
     
     
         11 . The device of  claim 1  further comprising dispensing holes formed through a surface on at least one of the teeth. 
     
     
         12 . The device of  claim 1  wherein the teeth are substantially hollow and define a void in fluid communication with the distribution channel. 
     
     
         13 . The device of  claim 1  wherein the reservoir is removable attached along the length of the backbone. 
     
     
         14 . The device of  claim 1  wherein the reservoir and the comb body form a substantially fluid-tight seal when attached. 
     
     
         15 . The device of  claim 1  wherein the dispensing holes are positioned along the interior sides of teeth, such that fluid is dispensed between teeth. 
     
     
         16 . The device of  claim 1  wherein the dispensing holes are angled to dispense fluid toward the backbone. 
     
     
         17 . The device of  claim 1  further including apertures along the bottom surface of the backbone. 
     
     
         18 . The device of  claim 1  wherein the teeth are substantially pyramidal in cross-section.
