Device 10 is refilled to include being held in place so that device will be refilled for engaging with clip 24 at rear portion Uncinus 23, which is snapped in its last moment being inserted into the device and is fastened in clip 24, for example, can To extract the uncinus 23 out from clip 24 by push/pull formula mechanism etc..

The device includes the detecting element 26 being made of electric contactor, and the electric contactor is in the presence of device 10 is refilled by again Tucker 10 activates, and makes it possible to the presence that instruction refills device.The electric contactor includes control-rod 26a, sealing element 26b Control-rod 26a can be pressed against, the sealing element is activated in itself by propeller 26c.

Device 1 includes locking component 30, the effect of locking component 30 be with refill device 10 be used as use reservoir Element 33 coordinates.

In this example, locking component 30 is returned resiliently to by leaf spring 31, and locking member 30 has base in forepart In sheet the edge 34 vertical with the plane of wall portion 35 (director element is attached to the wall portion 35) and rear portion have it is less precipitous Edge 37.

Locking component 30 is arranged to for example by the slit 36 in wall portion 35, and when element 33 refills device along removal Direction by when locking component 30 can retract.

In the example discussed, as fig. 5 a and fig. 5b, element 33 is the shape of pin, is assembled using frictional force In corresponding housing 42 in upper profile element 15.

Show the element 33 of its initial inactive configuration for the first time using will not before refilling device in Fig. 5 A and Fig. 5 B It extend into the space 43 limited between two bar elements 14 and 15, it such as particularly can be in Fig. 5 B and Fig. 6 A findings.

Device 1 has the lug boss for being designed as the moving element 33 when refilling device 10 and be assemblied on device for the first time.

In the example discussed, the lug boss by director element 18, back edge 37 positioned at locking component 30 Ramp 45 is formed.Therefore, when for the first time using device is refilled, when bar elements 14 and bar elements 15 are slided in director element When, ramp 45 is gradually pressed against on element 33 and element 33 is pushed into its housing 42.

Therefore, element 33 is extend into the space 43 between bar elements 14 and bar elements 15, as shown in Figure 5 D.

When refilling device 10 and being assemblied on device, locking component 30 be bonded on bar elements 14 and bar elements 15 it Between.Therefore, during insertion refills device 10, when being configured in the activation as shown in Fig. 5 C and Fig. 5 D, locking component 30 Inswept following such region：Element 33 is extended in the region.

The slope of the back edge 37 of locking component 30 is selected such that element 33 can make during removal refills device Locking component 30 deforms, to retract and cross (pass over) described locking component 30.

The propeller 26c acted on contactor 26 is located at relative to will refill the direction that device 10 is introduced into device 1 The upstream of locking component 30.Therefore, even if before the possibility action for playing that it locks the insertion of the box in locking component 30, contact Device 26 is also activated.

The component formed by refilling device and the device is operated as follows.

When refilling device 10 and being assemblied on device for the first time, ramp 45 makes element 33 be moved to from the configuration in Fig. 5 A and Fig. 5 B Configuration in Fig. 5 C and Fig. 5 D.When element 33 has passed over the leading edge 34 of locking component 30, due to refilling device 10 Offset in direction of insertion between the edge 34 and ramp 45 and this configuration variation occurs.Therefore locking component 30 does not interfere again The assembling of tucker 10.

During removal refills device, element 33 can cross locking structure due to the slope of the back edge 37 of locking component Part 30.

However, refill device if the attempt to ressembling, then due to the increased slope of the leading edge 34, element 33 against The leading edge 34 of locking component 30, which prevent elements 33 to cross leading edge 34.Therefore, user cannot reuse and refill Device.

As memory-aided element 33 is allow to implement in a manner of various other, and different from by means of can be in shell In body using frictional force movement pin, as just referring to figs. 1 to Fig. 6 B it is described.

Therefore, as shown in Fig. 7 to Fig. 9 B, element 33 can be implemented with the shape of hook, which includes being stuck in lower part type End pieces 53 in housing 51 in material element 14 and the connecting component 52 that end pieces 53 are connected to the main body for refilling device.It should Embodiment allows to by by element 33 and bar elements 14 and bar elements 15 and refilling the main body of device 10 and moulding Element 33 is formed into single type.

When assembling refills part 10 for the first time, the ramp 45 of device is for example in the connecting component 52 of element 33 and end pieces 53 Between the elbow that is formed be pressed against element 33, and end pieces 53 can be buckled and be fastened in housing 51, as shown in Figure 9 B.

In the figure, when refilling device 10 and being assembled, locking component 30 leads to relative to the path that device 10 followed is refilled It crosses shown in phantom.

Fig. 9 A are shown, in initial configuration corresponding with the configuration in Fig. 7 and Fig. 8, for the first time using before refilling device, End pieces 53 are located at the top in the path of locking component 30, therefore will not interfere the assembling for refilling device.In activation is configured, such as It shown in Fig. 9 B, is fastened in housing 51 once end pieces 53 have been buckled, then end pieces 53 can be against locking member 30.

Device 1 includes the electronic circuit 100 schematically shown in Fig. 10, which is included for example The electronic memory 101 of EEPROM type.The electronic circuit 100 is connected to contactor 26, and contactor 26 is refilling 10 quilt of device It is activated when being assemblied on device.The electronic circuit 100 is also connected to generate at least one resistor 102 of steam, connect It is connected to one or more resistors 103 for heating element 5 and heating element 6 and is connected to one or more temperature sensing Device 104, the one or more temperature sensor for example to could be aware that the temperature of plate.

Such as the switch 105 of reed switch type allows to know the closed state or opening state of device.Switch 105 Such as be disposed therein on an arm, magnet is set on the other arm, to change when two arms 2,3 are in the close position The state of switch 105.Switch 105 allows to notify the closure number of 100 arm of electronic circuit.Electronic circuit 100 is designed to The AC power of such as 110V or 220V power supplys is connected to by power cable 106.

Electronic circuit 100 can be the form of one or more plates, some plates can be arranged in handpiece, and when dress Other plates can be arranged on when putting with base station in such base station, base station be used for by comprising such as water receiver and pump come Generate steam.

Steam is preferably generated with being less than the rate of 10g/min.

Electronic circuit 100 includes at least one component of such as microcontroller, which is programmed to execute control The algorithm of the operation of device, advantageously according to the diagram in Figure 11.

When cable 106 is connected to power supply, electronic circuit 100 is powered, and can be detected when the device is turned off Refill the assembling of device.The cable 106 of device is connected to the step 201 of power supply so that in step 202 can be by means of connecing Tentaculum 26 detects the possible insertion for refilling device 10 before engaging means 1, in step 203 by pressing corresponding button And engaging means 1.

If detecting the insertion for refilling device in step 202, initialization in step 204 represents the closure time of arm Several variable ILS_nbr, even if device 1 not yet starts.

When engaging means in step 203, detect whether in step 205 exist refill device.If it does not assemble Refill device (this corresponds to the branch 206 in figure), then initializing variable ILS_nbr in step 207, and being touched with last The operation of pattern realization device 1, this is schematically indicated by the frame 208 in Figure 11.Under last touch formula, temperature is pre- Value that is nonadjustable, such as being set as 180 DEG C is defined as, the generation of steam is prevented from and cannot be activated, and for example By the flicker of LED or send out audible signal corresponding state is signaled into user.

Device 1 is kept in last touch formula, until refilling device until that may be inserted into step 209, at this In the case of kind, device as the normal mode shown in the frame 210 in Figure 11 to be operated, and wherein temperature can be by user from storage Default value (its last use value corresponded under normal mode) in memory proceeds by adjustment.Steam generator is swashed It is living, and corresponding state is for example signaled into user by illuminating above-mentioned LED in a manner of non-flickering.

Under last non-touch formula, electronic circuit 100 detects arm 2, arm in handled hair locks in step 211 3 closure, so that variable ILS_nbr is made to increase the quantity for representing to be closed number.In order to save memory space, the variable is preferably Being closed per n times increases once, wherein such as n=5.Therefore, every 5 closures, variable ILS_nbr increase by 5 units.

In step 211, user can also be allowed to change the set point heating temperature of plate.If necessary, Ke Yijian It surveys remaining for generating the water of steam to trigger corresponding alarm.

In the step 212, check whether variable ILS_nbr is less than scheduled threshold value n1, wherein such as n1=160.If Variable ILS_nbr be less than n1, then it is assumed that the cosmetic composition refilled in device does not run out, and device 1 can continue to Normal Mode Operation, as the branch 213 in Figure 11 schematically indicates.If the value of variable ILS_nbr becomes larger than or is equal to Threshold value n1, as shown in branch 215, device returns to last touch formula corresponding to the frame 208 in Figure 11.Therefore, the setting of plate Point heating temperature returns to the predefined value of last touch formula, and the operation of steam generator is interrupted, and is dodged by showing Bright LED signals corresponding state.

If device 1 stops in the case where its supply of electric power is not cut off, this schematically shows in the step 216 Go out, and then starter 1 in step 217, then read the value of stored variable ILS_nbr in step 218.If The value is less than threshold value n1, and as described by the branch 219 in Figure 11, then device is kept by 210 described normal mode of frame.If The value of variable ILS_nbr stored is greater than or equal to threshold value n1, then device enters last touch formula, such as branch 221 and frame Described by 208.

When the apparatus is switched on, if user, which removes, refills device, as described by branch 220 and step 223, then in step Variable ILS_nbr is reinitialized in 224, and device 1 enters last touch formula.

In step 230, it is preferable that device 1 is designed in the case where not using for a long time (that is, not having In the case of detecting that arm 2, arm 3 are closed) into sleep pattern, until releasing the button until pressing in step 210.

Frame 231 schematically indicates the situation of the disconnection of device 1, in this case, when reconnecting device 1, Figure 11 In algorithm return to above-mentioned steps 201.

Test back in step 205 if device 1 starts in step 203, and has assembled and has refilled device 10 (this corresponds to the branch 234 in Figure 11), then read the value of variable ILS_nbr in this step 235, and by the value and the second threshold Value n2 is compared, and second threshold n2 is different from threshold value n1 and is significantly less than and threshold value n1.For example, threshold value n2 is equal to 20.Such as The value of fruit variable ILS_nbr is greater than or equal to n2, then device enters last touch formula in a step 208.Therefore, this avoids Then if the device is reconnected (repeatedly opening and closing the arm) also in normal mode by the already off device of user The device is operated under formula, user may have begun use and refill device, then allow before continuing with by that can not neglect Depending on period because continually disconnect the device mean the device lain on the table on one side (stow away).Between between when in use In the case of long, the cosmetic composition potential evaporation refilled in device is contained in, the effect for refilling device is caused to reduce.

If variable ILS_nbr is strictly less than second threshold n2, device can operate in the normal mode, corresponding to figure Branch 237 and frame 210 in 11.

The present invention is not limited to shown algorithms.

Particularly, in the modification shown in Figure 12, above-mentioned steps 208 can be replaced with step 308, in step 308, dress 1 is put to operate in the case where nothing refills device pattern.In the case where this nothing refills device pattern, the plate of heating is turned off, the generation quilt of steam It prevents and cannot be activated, and for example by the flicker of LED or send out audible signal corresponding state is signaled To user.Device 1 keeps refilling device pattern in this nothing, until refilling device until that may be inserted into step 209. In step 212 and step 218, if the value of variable ILS_nbr becomes larger than or equal to threshold value n1 (as respectively by 315 He of branch Represented by branch 321), then device enters last touch formula (corresponding to the frame 310 in Figure 12).Device 1 is kept in the mould Until formula refills device until being removed in step 223.In step 224, variable ILS_nbr is reinitialized and device 1 refills device pattern (corresponding to the branch 324 in Figure 12) into nothing.

Also advantageously the closure number of arm is not only calculated, also calculates the duration of closure of the arm on hair, It can represent the length of handled hair locks.This has allowed to more accurately determine to refill cosmetic composition in device The degree used, and the demand that replacement can be refilled to device more accurately signals to user.

In order to determine the duration of the closure of arm, the electronic circuit 100 of device is advantageously provided with timer 110, such as Shown in dotted line in Figure 10, which is preferably provided for saving the data in the battery in timer memory.
