Anchoring member for head ornamental article and wig having at least one anchoring member

Abstract: In an anchoring member (1; 20; 30; 40; 50; 70; 101) for a head ornamental article (10), a plurality of pectinate projections (3) are mounted to a curved reversible element (2; 22; 32; 52; 72; 102) in spaced relation to each other. A gripping arrangement (5; 25) is provided on the curved reversible element or on the wig base. The pectinate projections are capable of being engaged with and disengaged from the gripping arrangement when the curved reversible element is reversed. Engagement of the pectinate projections and the gripping arrangement with each other at the time the curved reversible element is reversed enables the pectinate projections and the gripping element to cooperate with each other to clamp therebetween an article being clamped. A hooking element (6A, 6B; 26A, 26B; 36; 56; 86, 87; 106A, 106B) is mounted to the curved reversible element, and is capable of being engaged with a caught unit (12a, 12b; 42a, 42b; 62a, 62b; 112a, 112b; 212a; 312; 412a₂, 412b₂; 512a; 612a; 712a) on the head ornamental article so that the curved reversible element can detachably be fastened to the head ornamental article. A wig (10) is also disclosed which comprises at least one anchoring member.

Description: The present invention relates to an anchoring member mounted to a head ornamental article such as, for example, a wig, ornamentation for a head and so on, for fastening the head ornamental article to a suitable article such as hairs, said anchoring member comprising: a curved reversible element having reversible performance; a plurality of pectinate projections mounted to said curved reversible element in spaced relation to each other; gripping means on one of said curved reversible element and said head ornamental article, said pectinate projections being capable of being engaged with and disengaged from said gripping means when said curved reversible element is reversed; wherein engagement of said pectinate projections and said gripping means with each other at the time said curved reversible element is reversed enables said pectinate projections and said gripping means to cooperate with each other to clamp therebetween an article being clamped, and also to a wig comprising: a wig base mainly composed of a net element and/or an artificial skin; a plurality of hairs planted to an outer surface of said wig base; at least one anchoring member mounted to an inner surface of said wig base; wherein said anchoring member comprises a curved reversible element having reversible performance, a plurality of pectinate projections mounted to said curved reversible element in spaced relation to each other; gripping means on one of said curved reversible element and said wig base, said pectinate projections being capable of being engaged with and disengaged from said gripping means when said curved reversible element is reversed, and wherein engagement of said pectinate projections and said gripping means with each other at the time said curved reversible element is reversed when said wig is worn on a user's head enables said pectinate projections and said gripping means to cooperate with each other to clamp therebetween hairs on the user's head. It will be considered to mount, for instance, a wig or the like to a user's or wearer's head. In this case, if hairs on the head are clamped by at least one anchoring member for fixedly mounting the wig to the user's head, which is mounted along an inner periphery of a wig base, it is easy to mount and demount the wig to and from the user's head. The anchoring member and the wig using the same, described above, have conventionally been known from, for example, Japanese Patent Publication No. SHO 54-16785 which has been filed in the name of the same assignee and which corresponds to US-A- 4,155,370 or GB-A- 1 536 630. The anchoring member of the kind referred to above comprises a curved reversible element having reversible performance and a plurality of pectinate projections mounted to the reversible element. In interlocking relation to reversion of the reversible element, the pectinate projections are flexed to clamp the hairs between the pectinate projections and gripping means on one of the reversible element and an inner surface of a wig base. The anchoring member described above is mounted, at an optional position, to the inner surface of the wig base which is made of a synthetic resinous material and/or a net element, by the use of sewing threads or adhesives. By the way, a case will be considered where the anchoring member is mounted to the wig base by the use of the sewing threads or the adhesives. In this case, when the anchoring member is broken so that it is required to replace the anchoring member by a new one, the following various problems arise. Specifically, a case will be considered where the anchoring member is fixedly mounted, by, for example, adhesives, to the wig base which is made of cloth and/or a resinous material. In this case, if an attempt is made to demount the anchoring member from the wig base by the use of a parting agent such as acetone or the like, there is such a fear that the wig base made of the cloth and/or the synthetic resinous material is partially melted or dissolved. Further, in the case where the anchoring member is mounted to the wig base made of, for example, a net, by the sewing threads, there is such a fear that cutting of the sewing threads by means of a knife or the like damages the net of the wig base. Particularly, if the anchoring member is fixedly mounted to the wig base by the sewing threads, it will be required that, after the sewing threads have been cut to demount the anchoring member from the wig base, the anchoring member is replaced by a new one, and the new anchoring member is again sewed and mounted to the wig base. Such operations damage the wig base and, in its turn, there occurs such a fear that the wig is rendered unusable. Further, loosening tends to occur in the threads by which the anchoring member is fixedly mounted to wig base, so that it is impossible to secure that the anchoring member is fixedly mounted to the wig base. Thus, the wearing state or condition of the wig is rendered unstable. Furthermore, in the case of ornamentation for being fastened to user's hairs, which includes a ribbon, a flower, an insect or other various ornamental articles, formed by a metallic material, a plastic material or the like, normally a single anchoring member for mounting the ornamentation to the hairs is fixedly mounted to a rear side of the ornamentation. In the ornamentation of the kind referred to above, since the anchoring member is not demountable from the ornamentation, breakage of the anchoring member during use for several times renders the ornamentation, per se , for being fastened to the hairs, unusable. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the invention to provide an anchoring member in which, if breakage or the like requires replacement of the anchoring member by a new one, the new anchoring member can easily be fastened to a head ornamental article without damage of a body of the same such as a wig base, and in which the anchoring member can easily be demounted from other various ornamental articles for being fastened to user's hairs. It is another object of the invention to provide a wig in which the anchoring member described above can easily be mounted to or demounted from a wig base. This object is solved by an anchoring member; caught means capable of being mounted to the head ornamental article; and hooking means mounted to the curved reversible element and capable of being engaged with the caught means on the head ornamental article so that the curved reversible element can detachably be fastened to the head ornamental article. With the above arrangement of the invention, the hooking means is mounted to the curved reversible element of the anchoring member, and the anchoring member can easily be mounted fixedly to the head ornamental article by engagement of the hooking means on the curved reversible element and the caught means on the head ornamental article with each other. Further, disengagement of the hooking means on the curved reversible element and the caught means on the head ornamental article from each other easily demounts the anchoring member from the head ornamental article. Thus, in the case where the anchoring member is broken, it is possible to replace only the anchoring member by a new one, without damage of the head ornamental article which is high in cost. According to the invention, there is also provided a wig characterized by: caught means fixedly mounted to the inner surface of said wig base at a location where said anchoring member is to be mounted to the inner surface of said wig base; wherein said anchoring member comprises hooking means mounted to said curved reversible element and capable of being engaged with said caught means on the inner surface of said wig base so that said curved reversible element can detachably be fastened to the inner surface of said wig base. With the above arrangement of the invention, the hooking means is mounted to the curved reversible element of the anchoring member, and the anchoring member can easily be mounted fixedly to the wig by engagement of the hooking means on the curved reversible element and the caught means on the inner surface of the wig base with each other. Further, disengagement of the hooking means on the curved reversible element and the caught means on the inner surface of the wig base from each other easily demounts the anchoring member from the wig base. Thus, there are obtained the following practical advantages. That is, even if the anchoring member is broken, it is possible to easily replace the anchoring member by a new one. Further, when the wig is washed or the like, previous demounting of the anchoring member enables the washing not to rust the anchoring member, so that it is possible to use the anchoring member for a long period of time. Other particular embodiments of the invention are set out in Claims 2-31 and 33-49.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Various embodiments of the invention and modifications thereof will be described below with reference to the drawings. It should be noted that like or similar components and parts are designated by the same or like reference numerals throughout the drawings, and the description of the like or similar components and parts will be simplified or omitted to avoid repetition. First Embodiment Referring first to Fig. 1, there is shown, in a perspective view, an anchoring member 1 according to a first embodiment of the invention. The anchoring member 1 comprises a curved reversible element 2 having reversible performance, a plurality of pectinate projections 3 mounted to the curved reversible element 2 in equidistantly spaced relation to each other, and a gripping element 5 provided on the curved reversible element 2. The gripping element 5 may be a rubber tube or pipe having high frictional resistance. The pectinate projections 3 are capable of being in contact with and out of contact with the gripping element 5 when the curved reversible element 2 is reversed. Specifically, the curved reversible element 2 has a pair of legs 2a and 2b, and is elongated in configuration having both longitudinal ends 2c and 2d. The pectinate projections 3 have their respective proximal ends which are fusibly deposited on the leg 2a in equidistantly spaced relation to each other. The leg 2b is covered with the gripping element 5 which is made of a rubber tube or pipe, in order to enable the coefficient of friction of the leg 2b to increase with respect to the pectinate projections 3. The curved reversible element 2 is formed in the following manner. That is, a sheet having resiliency or elasticity such as, for example, a metallic sheet is beforehand formed into a U-shaped configuration having the pair of legs 2a and 2b. The legs 2a and 2b have their respective free ends which are pulled toward each other and which are superimposed upon each other. Subsequently, the free ends of the respective legs 2a and 2b are connected to each other by an eyelet 4a. By doing so, the legs 2a and 2b are bent into an arcuate configuration in the same direction, to give the reversible performance to the curved reversible element 2. The pectinate projections 3 are made of, for example, a plurality of metallic thin wires which have their respective proximal ends and forward ends. The proximal ends of the respective wires are fusibly deposited on an upper face of one of the pair of legs 2a of the curved reversible element 2 in equidistantly spaced relation to each other. The vicinity of the forward ends of the respective wires extends beyond and is bent toward the other leg 2b of the curved reversible element 2. The pectinate projections 3 have their respective bulges 3a which are formed respectively at the forward ends of the respective pectinate projections 3, so that if the pectinate projections 3 are in contact with a user's head skin, the latter is prevented from being injured by the pectinate projections 3. In connection with the above, the gripping element 5 may be formed by the other leg 2b per se . That is, the gripping element 5 may be dispensed with, if the surface of the other leg 2b has high frictional resistance with respect to the pectinate projections 3. Further, the anchoring member 1 has a latching or hooking element mounted to the curved reversible element 2 so as to be engageable with a caught unit which is provided on, for example, an inner surface of a wig base subsequently to be described. The hooking element on the curved reversible element 2 comprises a pair of hooking sections 6A and 6B which are capable of being engaged respectively with a pair of caught elements of the caught unit on the wig base so that the curved reversible element 2 can detachably be fastened to the wig base. In the first embodiment illustrated in Fig. 1, the pair of hooking sections 6A and 6B are formed therein respectively with a pair of hooking bores 6a and 6b. The hooking sections 6A and 6B are so provided as to project outwardly respectively from the longitudinal ends 2c and 2d of the curved reversible element 2. The anchoring member 1 according to the first embodiment of the invention is constructed as described above. The anchoring member 1 is mounted to, for example, an inner surface of a wig base 11 of a wig 10 as illustrated in Fig. 2 which is a bottom view showing an inner surface of the wig 10. Specifically, the wig 10 including a toupee comprises the wig base 11 made of a net, cloth and/or an artificial skin and principally formed in accordance with a user's head configuration, and a plurality of hairs H planted to a front or outer surface of the wig base 11. Further, a plurality of caught units 12 are arranged at their respective desirable locations on a periphery of a rear or inner surface of the wig base 11. Referring again to Fig. 1, each of the caught units 12 on the inner surface of the wig base 11 includes a pair of spaced caught elements 12a and 12b having their respective L-shaped or C-shaped cross-sectional configurations whose respective openings are directed away from each other. The caught elements 12a and 12b are mounted at their respective positions on the peripheral edge of the wig base 11 such that the pair of caught elements 12a and 12b have a spacing therebetween which is substantially identical with that between the pair of hooking bores 6a and 6b of the respective hooking sections 6A and 6B. When the caught elements 12a and 12b are mounted to the wig base 11, the bottoms of the respective caught elements 12a and 12b may directly be bonded to the wig base 11 by adhesives, or may be sewn to the wig base 11 by sewing threads. Alternatively, as shown in Fig. 3, the arrangement may be such that one of a plurality of pairs of adhesive holders 13 made of a resinous material is adhered to the inner surface of the wig base 11, and a corresponding one of the caught elements 12a has its bottom which is embedded in the adhesive holder 13. As shown in Fig. 4, when the anchoring member 1 is mounted to the wig base 11, resiliency or elasticity of the wig base 11 is utilized to insert the caught elements 12a and 12b respectively in the hooking bores 6a and 6b of the respective hooking sections 6A and 6B, so that the curved reversible element 2 is engaged with and fixedly mounted to the caught unit 12 on the inner surface of the wig base 11. Further, when the anchoring member 1 is demounted from the wig base 11, the caught element 12a and 12b are disengaged respectively from the hooking bores 6a and 6b of the respective hooking sections 6A and 6B. By doing so, engagement of the curved reversible element 2 and the wig base 11 with each other can easily be released. Thus, it is possible to easily engage and disengage the anchoring member 1 and the wig base 11 of the wig 10 with and from each other. Even if the anchoring member 1 is broken, it is possible to easily replace the anchoring member 1 by a new one. Moreover, since the anchoring member 1 is fixedly mounted to the wig base 11 under the hooking or engaging state or condition without the use of the adhesives or sewing threads unlike the conventional anchoring member, there is no such a fear that, when the anchoring member 1 is demounted from the wig base 11, the latter is damaged by a knife or the like. In connection with the above, it is not necessarily required that the hooking sections 6A and 6B of the curved reversible element 2 are provided respectively at the longitudinal ends 2c and 2d of the curved reversible element 2. Three or more hooking sections may be provided at their respective locations which are suitable in engagement with each of the engaging units 12 of the wig base 11. First Modification of First Embodiment The pectinate projections 3 may be formed in an integral manner with respect to the curved reversible element 2 as shown in Fig. 5. That is, the anchoring member 1 illustrated in Fig. 5 comprises the curved reversible element 2 which is formed into a U-shaped or C-shaped configuration having a pair of legs 2a and 2b. The pair of legs 2a and 2b have their respective proximal ends which are connected to each other by a base section 2c in an integral manner. Free ends of the respective legs 2a and 2b are connected to each other by a support element 7 whose both ends are mounted respectively to the free ends of the respective legs 2a and 2b through respective eyelets 8 and 8. The support element 7 is not covered with the gripping element 5 illustrated in Fig. 1, but has its outer surface which is relatively high in coefficient of friction. The support element 7 has its length shorter than that of the base section 2c of the curved reversible element 2. By the connection of the shorter support element 7 between the pair of legs 2a and 2b, the reversible performance is given to the curved reversible element 2. The plurality of pectinate projections 3 have their respective proximal ends which are formed integrally with the base section 2c in equidistantly spaced relation to each other. In this case, no bulge is provided on the forward end of each of the pectinate projections 3. Further, the hooking element 6B is formed separately from the curved reversible element 2, and is connected thereto by the eyelet 4a for angular movement thereabout. Second Modification of First Embodiment Alternatively, as shown in Fig. 6, the pectinate projections 3 may be formed in the following manner. That is, the proximal ends of the respective wires are fusibly deposited on a rear side of one of the pair of legs 2a of the curved reversible element 2 in equidistantly spaced relation to each other. Intermediate sections of the respective wires extend between the pair of legs 2a and 2b and are induced out of a space between the pair of legs 2a and 2b. The forward ends of the respective wires extend beyond the other leg 2b of the curved reversible element 2. In this case, each of the pectinate projections 3 is formed by a wire which is bent into a U-shaped configuration. The U-shaped wire has a proximal end which is fusibly deposited on the rear surface of the one leg 2a of the curved reversible element 2. The forward end of the U-shaped wire is free and is located above the gripping element 5. Further, no bulge is provided on the forward end of the U-shaped wire. Moreover, the hooking element 6B is formed separately from the curved reversible element 2, and is connected thereto by the eyelet 4a for angular movement thereabout. Second Embodiment Referring next to Fig. 7, there is shown an anchoring member 20 according to a second embodiment of the invention. The anchoring member 20 comprises a curved reversible element 22 which is formed into a U-shaped or C-shaped configuration having a pair of legs 22a and 22b. The legs 22a and 22b are connected to each other by a base section 22c. The plurality of pectinate projections 3 have their respective proximal ends which are fusibly deposited onto an upper face of the base section 22c in equidistantly spaced relation to each other. Further, the pair of hooking sections 26A and 26B, which are formed therein respectively with hooking bores 26a and 26b, are provided, in an integral manner, respectively on the pair of legs 22a and 22b so as to project outwardly therefrom. That is, the curved reversible element 22 has such a configuration that the leg 2b of the curved reversible element 2 of the first embodiment is dispensed with. The reversible performance is beforehand given to the curved reversible element 22 in a metallurgical manner or by a press machine. A gripping area or arrangement 25 having, for example, a plurality of wrinkle-like ridgelines extending in spaced parallel relation to each other, is provided on the rear side or face of the wig base 11 which is made of a resinous material. In place of the wrinkle-like ridgelines, a plate element made of a resinous material may be attached to the rear face of the wig base 11. The plate element has its surface which is planar. The anchoring member 20 constructed as described above is mounted to or dismounted from the wig base 11 in a manner substantially the same as that described with reference to the first embodiment. When the anchoring member 20 is mounted to the wig base 11, the pectinate projections 3 cooperate with the gripping arrangement 25 on the rear side of the wig base 11, to clamp therebetween the hairs on the user's head, for example. Third Embodiment As shown in Fig. 8 illustrating a third embodiment of the invention, the arrangement is such that an anchoring member 30 comprises a curved reversible element 32 which has a pair of hooking sections 36 (only one shown) formed respectively into hook configurations, and that the caught unit of the wig base 11 comprises a pair of caught bore elements 42a and 42b which are embedded respectively in a pair of adhesive holders 43 and 43. In this case, when the wig is worn on the use's head, the hooking sections 36 project in a direction opposite to the head skin. Thus, there is no such a fear that projections 36 injure the head skin. Further, it is preferable that there is no case where the hooking sections 36 are abutted against the user's head through the wig base 11 to give an unpleasant feeling to the user. Fourth Embodiment Fig. 9 shows an anchoring member 50 according to a fourth embodiment of the invention. The hooking sections 36 illustrated in Fig. 8 project from the rear surface of the anchoring member 30 toward the inner surface of the wig base 11. To the contrary, the fourth embodiment illustrated in Fig. 9, a pair of hooking sections 56 and 56 on a curved reversible element 52 are formed respectively into hook-shaped configurations which are bent in a plane including the curved reversible element 52. The hooking sections 56 and 56 on the curved reversible element 52 project outwardly respectively from both longitudinal ends 52c and 52d of the curved reversible element 52. The hooking sections 56 and 56 on the curved reversible element 52 are mounted thereto respectively through a pair of pivoting elements or eyelets 54a and 54a. Each of the caught units on the inner surface of the wig base 11 includes a pair of spaced caught elements 62a and 62b. The caught elements 62a and 62b are formed respectively into loop configurations. The hooking sections 56 and 56 on the curved reversible element 52 are engaged respectively with the caught elements 62a and 62b on the inner surface of the wig base 11. In this case, there is obtained such a functional advantage that it is possible to form the anchoring member 50 so as to have its entire thickness which is smaller than that illustrated in Fig. 8. Furthermore, each of the caught units on the inner surface of the wig base 11 should not be limited to the caught elements 62a and 62b which are separate from the wig base 11. For instance, the arrangement may be such that a plurality of pairs of rifts, gaps or the like (not shown) are formed in, for example, the artificial skin of the wig base, and the pair of hooking sections on the curved reversible element are inserted respectively in a corresponding pair of the rifts or gaps. Fifth Embodiment Fig. 10 shows an anchoring member 70 according to a fifth embodiment of the invention. The anchoring member 70 comprises a curved reversible element 72 which is provided, at its both longitudinal ends 72c and 72d, respectively with hooking sections 86 and 87. By the hooking sections 86 and 87, the anchoring member 70 is engaged with one of the caught units (not shown) on the inner surface of the wig base. One of the hooking sections 86 is a bore directly formed in a wide surface of the longitudinal end 72c of the curved reversible element 72, while the other hooking section 87 is formed separately from the curved reversible element 72 and is formed therein with a bore 87a. Specifically, as shown in Fig. 11, the other hooking section 87 is formed by a thin plate element which is formed therein with the square O-shaped bore 87a and which projects outwardly from the longitudinal end 72d of the curved reversible element 72. That is, one of the hooking elements 86 and 87, which are provided respectively at the longitudinal ends 72c and 72d of the curved reversible element 72, is formed separately from the curved reversible element 72 and is mounted thereto for angular movement about the pivoting element or eyelet 4a. The hooking section 87 is mounted to the curved reversible element 72 through the eyelet 4a. When the anchoring member 70 is mounted to the inner surface of the wig base, the hooking section or bore 86 of the anchoring member 70 is first engaged with one of the pair of caught elements of each of the caught units on the wig base, that is, with the caught element 12a in Fig. 1, for example. Subsequently, the hooking section 87 of the anchoring member 70 is moved angularly about the eyelet 4a with respect to the other caught element of the caught unit on the wig base, so that the horizontal position of the hooking section 87 is adjusted. Thus, the anchoring member 70 can be engaged with the inner surface of the wig base. Accordingly, when the anchoring member 70 is engaged with the caught unit on the wig base, the positioning of the anchoring member 70 is made easy. For instance, even if the pair of caught elements 12a and 12b, which cooperate with each other to form the caught unit on the wig base, are arranged in shift or deviation more or less in the horizontal direction, the hooking section 87 is moved angularly about the eyelet 4a, whereby it is possible to easily mount the anchoring member 70 to the inner surface of the wig base. Sixth Embodiment Referring to Fig. 12, there is shown an anchoring member 101 according to a sixth embodiment of the invention. The anchoring member 101 comprises a curved reversible element 102 which has its both longitudinal ends 102c and 102d. A pair of hooking sections 106A and 106B are provided respectively at the longitudinal ends 102c and 102d of the curved reversible element 102. One or a plurality of caught units are mounted on an inner surface of a head ornamental article such as a wig base or the like. The caught unit has a pair of caught elements 112a and 112b. The caught element 112a is composed of a pair of lower and upper caught sections 112a₁ and 112a₂, while the caught element 112b is composed of a pair of lower and upper caught sections 112b₁ and 112b₂. The upper caught sections 112a₂ and 112b₂ can be engageable respectively with the lower caught sections 112a₁ and 112b₁. As shown in Fig. 13, the hooking sections 106A and 106B have their respective circular hooking bores 106a and 106b which are formed respectively in projecting portions of the longitudinal ends 102c and 102d, which project outwardly from the body of the curved reversible element 102. Each of the hooking bores 106a and 106b has its inner diameter D a which is 2.4 mm, for example. As shown in Figs. 14(A) and 14(B), each of the lower caught sections (represented by the reference numeral 112a₁) comprises a projecting element 111 which is formed with a base 111a in the form of a circular planar plate, a neck 111b provided on the base 111a in an upstanding manner, and a head 111c enlarged in diameter more than the neck 111b. These base 111a, neck 111b and head 111c are formed in an integral manner. The projecting element 111 has its height which passes through the hooking bore 106a and which projects upwardly from the curved reversible element 102. Specifically, the projecting element 111 is formed into, for example, such a dimension that the neck 111b has its outer diameter D b which is 1.95 mm, the head 111c has its maximum outer diameter D c which is 2.2 mm, a height H a from the base 111a to the forward end of the neck 111b is 1.65 mm, and a height H b from the forward end of the neck 111b to the forward end of the head 111c is 0.55 mm. The base 111a is formed into, for example, such a dimension that a thickness T a is 0.65 mm, and an outer diameter R a is 6.9 mm. As shown in Fig. 12, the upper caught sections 112a₂ and 112b₂ are engageable respectively with the projecting elements 111 and 111 which pass respectively through the hooking bores 106a and 106b and which project upwardly from the curved reversible element 102. As shown in Figs. 15(A) and 15(B), each of the upper caught sections (represented by the reference numeral 112a₂) comprises an annular element 113. Specifically, the annular element 113 has such a configuration that a semi-circular portion 113a having its larger width faces toward a semi-circular portion 113b having its shorter width, and the semi-circular portions 113a and 113b are integrally connected to each other. The semi-circular portions 113a and 113b are common to each other in an inner diameter D d of a through bore 114 which is formed in the upper caught section 112a₂. This configuration of the upper caught section 112a₂ is convenient, because a cut-out formed in a part of the annular element 113 avoids abutment between the upper caught section 112a₂ and the eyelet 4a provided at the longitudinal end 102d of the curved reversible element 102 when the annular element 113 is snap-fitted about the projecting element 111. Thus, it is ensured that the annular element 113 is snap-fitted about the projecting element 111. The annular element 113 has, for example, such a dimension that the through bore 114 has its inner diameter D d which is 2.1 mm, the larger-width semi-circular portion 113a has its maximum outer diameter R b which is 6.9 mm, the smaller-width semi-circular portion 113b has its maximum outer diameter R c which is 3.55 mm, and a thickness T b is 0.8 mm. That is, the maximum outer diameter R a of the base 111a of the projecting element 111 and the maximum outer diameter R b of the annular element 113 are so formed as to be the same as each other. Further, the outer diameter D b of the neck 111b and the outer diameter D c of the head 111c of the projecting element 111, and the inner diameter D d of the through bore 114 in the annular element 113 have the relationship of the neck D b < the through bore D d < the head D c . The projecting element 111 and the annular element 113 are made of an elastic material such as, for example, polyurethane or the like. The projecting element 111 and the annular element 113 cooperate with each other to form a snap coupling. The projecting element 111 constructed as described above is mounted to the head ornamental article such as the wig base or the like in the following manner. That is, as shown in Fig. 16, the adhesive holder 13 such as a laminate seal or the like made of, for example, polyurethane or the like is polymerized to the base 111a of the projecting element 111, and the adhesive holder 13 is bonded to and fixedly mounted to the inner surface of the wig base 11. Specifically, as shown in Fig. 12, the projecting elements 111 and 111, which are fixedly mounted to the inner surface of the head ornamental article such as the wig base or the like, are inserted respectively through the hooking bores 106a and 106b in the curved reversible element 102. The annular elements 113 and 113 are fitted respectively about the necks 111b and 111b which project upwardly from the curved reversible element 102. The annular elements 113 and 113 are engaged respectively with the heads 111c and 111c of the respective projecting elements 111 and 111 so as not to come out therefrom. As described above, the sixth embodiment of the invention is constructed as follows. That is, the pair of hooking bores 106a and 106b are formed respectively in the longitudinal ends 102c and 102d of the curved reversible element 102. The projecting elements 111 and 111, which are provided on the inner surface of the head ornamental article such as the wig base or the like, are easily inserted respectively through the hooking bores 106a and 106b. It is ensured that the curved reversible element 102 is mounted to the projecting elements 111 and 111 by the annular elements 113 and 113 from the above. By disengagement of the annular elements 113 and 113 from their respective projecting elements 111 and 111, the anchoring member 101 can extremely easily be demounted from the wig or the like and can be replaced by a new one. Particularly, if the projecting elements 111 and 111 and the annular elements 113 and 113 are made of an elastic material as is in the sixth embodiment, there is no such a fear that the scalp of the wig user or the like is injured. First Modification of Sixth Embodiment Referring to Fig. 17, there is shown an upper caught section 212a₂ according to a first modification of the sixth embodiment illustrated in Figs. 12 through 16. The upper caught section 212a comprises a substantially annular element 213 which is made of a rigid material. A cut-out 218 is formed at a part of the annular element 213 so that resiliency or elasticity is given to the annular element 213. It is possible for the annular element 213 to produce functional advantages which are similar to those described previously with reference to the sixth embodiment. Second Modification of Sixth Embodiment Referring to Fig. 18, there is shown an upper caught section 312a₂ according to a second modification of the sixth embodiment described with reference to Figs. 12 through 16. The upper caught section 312a comprises a recess element 313. As shown in Fig. 18, the recess element 313 is formed therein with a recess 318 so that the latter can be fitted about the head 111c of the projecting element 111 illustrated in Figs. 14(A) and 14(B). Basically or fundamentally, the recess element 313 has functional advantages similar to those of the annular element 113 of the sixth embodiment illustrated in Figs. 12 through 16. In addition, such a reverse aspect may be considered that the recess element 313 is mounted to the inner surface of the wig base or the like, and the projecting element 111 illustrated in Fig. 12 is snap-fitted in the recess 318 of the recess element 313 from a location above the curved reversible element 102. Thus, the upper caught section 312a can be used widely or for various purposes. Third Modification of Sixth Embodiment Referring to Fig. 19, there is shown upper caught sections 412a₂ and 412b₂ according to a third modification of the sixth embodiment illustrated in Figs. 12 through 16. The upper caught sections 412a₂ and 412b₂, which are formed therein respectively with the through bores 414 and 414, are formed integrally with a tube-like gripping element 405 with which the leg 102b of the curved reversible element 102 illustrated in Fig. 12 is covered in order to increase the coefficient of friction with respect to the pectinate projections 3 in Fig. 12. The third modification illustrated in Fig. 19 can produce functional advantages similar to those described above and, in addition thereto, can produce such a superior functional advantage that the gripping element 405 is replaced with a new one together with the upper caught sections 412a₂ and 412b₂. Thus, a partial deterioration in quality of the upper caught sections 412a₂ and 412b₂ and shortening of the service life due to damage of the gripping element 405 can be prevented. First Modification of Caught Element Referring to Fig. 20, there is shown a caught element 512a according to a first modification of the caught element 112a illustrated in Figs. 14(A) through 15(B). The caught element 512a is composed of upper and lower caught sections 512a₂ and 512a₁. The larger-width semi-circular portion of the upper caught section 512a₂ and the base of the lower caught section 512a₁ are connected to each other through a strap 551 and are integrally formed together therewith. This caught element 512a is preferable, because it is possible to prevent missing or loss of the upper caught section 512a₂. Second Modification of Caught Element Referring to Figs. 21 and 22, there is shown a caught element 612a according to a second modification of the caught element 112a illustrated in Figs. 14(A) through 15(B). The caught element 612a is composed of upper and lower caught sections 612a₂ and 612a₁. In the second modification, the lower caught section 612a₁ is bonded to an adhesive holder 613 by adhesives, and a strap 651 has one end thereof which is bonded to the holder 613 by adhesives. The other end of the strap 651 is integrally connected to the larger-width semi-circular portion of the upper caught section 612a₂. The second modification is also preferable, because it is possible to prevent missing or loss of the upper caught section 612a₂. Third Modification of Caught Element Referring to Figs. 23 and 24, there is shown a caught element 712a according to a second modification of the caught element 112a illustrated in Figs. 14(A) through 15(B). The caught element 712a is composed of upper and lower caught sections 712a₂ and 712a₁. In the third modification, a strap 751 is provided whose one end is integrally connected to the larger-width semi-circular portion of the upper caught section 712a₂. The other end of the strap 751 is provided with a ring section 751a which is fitted about the neck of the projection on the base of the lower caught section 712a₁. That is, the ring section 751a is snap-fitted about the neck of the projection on the base of the lower caught section 712a₁ so that the ring section 751a cannot easily come out from the neck through the head of the projection on the base of the lower caught section 712a₁. The third modification is also preferable, because it is possible to prevent missing or loss of the upper caught section 712a₂. Other Modifications In connection with the above, the anchoring member according to the invention should not be limited to application only to the wig. It is hardly necessary to say that the anchoring member can be utilized in various head ornamental articles each of which is provided with at least one pair of caught elements capable of being engaged respectively with the hooking sections on the anchoring member. For instance, if the pair of caught elements 12a and 12b illustrated in Fig. 1 are formed on the inner or rear surface of a hair ornamental article which is made of a relatively thin metallic or plastic material having resiliency or elasticity, it is possible to easily mount, to the hair ornamental article, the anchoring member 1 having the hooking sections 6A and 6B, which are capable of being easily engaged with and disengaged from the caught elements 12a and 12b, respectively. Thus, even if the anchoring member 1 is broken, the anchoring member 1 should be replaced by a new one, so that the hair ornamental article is not rendered unusable. Further, it is of course that the anchoring member according to the invention can also be applied as a fastener for clamping a sheet material such as a thin plate made of paper or a metallic or synthetic resinous material.
