Detailed Description

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals. Their names and functions are also identical. Therefore, detailed descriptions thereof are not repeated.

[ embodiment 1 ]

An embodiment of the present invention is described in detail below. In the present embodiment, first, a structure of a blower is described, and next, a structure of a blower to which a head stimulator is attached is described.

(integral constitution of blower)

Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing an external configuration of a blower 10 according to the present embodiment. In describing the shape, positional relationship, and the like of each component of the blower 10, the blower 10 is defined by coordinate axes in three directions, i.e., an X (X1-X2) direction (left-right direction), a Y (Y1-Y2) direction (up-down direction), and a Z (Z1-Z2) direction (front-back direction) shown in fig. 1 and the like, for convenience.

Fig. 2 shows an appearance of the blower 10 shown in fig. 1 when viewed from the side surface side (X2 side). Fig. 3 shows a cross section of the blower 10 shown in fig. 1 as seen from the side surface side (X2 side).

As shown in fig. 1, the blower 10 mainly includes a main body 11 and a grip 20. The main body 11 has a front portion 11a on the front side (Z1 side) and a blow-out port 12 for blowing out air, and has a suction port 23 for sucking in air on the rear side (Z2 side). The main body 11 also has an air blowing mechanism (air blowing unit 150 (fig. 3) and other) and an air blowing path (air blowing path) inside. Thereby, the main body 11 blows out the air sucked from the suction port 23 from the air outlet 12 (specifically, the 1 st air outlet 12a and the 2 nd air outlet 12 b). In addition to the generation of the cool and warm air, the blower 10 may generate charged particles (ions) and blow them to the head.

For example, as shown in fig. 3, the blower 150 includes at least a centrifugal fan 151, a motor 153, and a motor fixing member 152. The centrifugal fan 151 is rotated by driving the motor 153, whereby air is sucked in from the suction port 23 of the main body 11, heated or cooled inside, and blown out from the air outlet 12.

The air outlet 12 includes 2 air outlets, i.e., a 1 st air outlet 12a and a 2 nd air outlet 12b, formed in the end portions of the left and right (X1-X2) sides at the front face portion 11 a. That is, the 1 st and 2 nd outlets 12a and 12b are formed on the left and right (X1-X2) sides of the outer edge side of the front surface portion 11a of the main body portion 11.

The 1 st air outlet 12a is formed along the left side (X1 side) end in the up-down direction (Y direction) when the front surface portion 11a is viewed from the front. The 2 nd air outlet 12b is formed in the up-down direction (Y direction) along the end portion on the right side (X2 side) when the front surface portion 11a is viewed from the front.

The 1 st and 2 nd outlets 12a and 12b have openings having a shape (longitudinal shape) elongated in the up-down direction (Y direction). More specifically, the 1 st air outlet 12a and the 2 nd air outlet 12b are formed in an arc shape along a part of the outer periphery of the substantially circular front surface portion 11 a. By forming the opening of the 1 st outlet 12a and the opening of the 2 nd outlet 12b in such a shape, the longitudinal direction of each opening can be aligned with the direction along the extension direction of the hair at the application site when the hair dryer 10 is used to dry the hair.

The display portion 30 and the irradiation portion 50 (the 1 st irradiation portion 50a and the 2 nd irradiation portion 50 b) are formed on the front surface portion 11a on the inner side of the 1 st air outlet 12a and the 2 nd air outlet 12b. The details of the display unit 30, the 1 st irradiation unit 50a, and the 2 nd irradiation unit 50b will be described later.

The grip portion 20 is located below the body portion 11. The grip 20 is a portion that becomes a grip of a user when the blower 10 is in use. As shown in fig. 2, the grip portion 20 extends downward (Y2 side) from a substantially central portion in the front-rear direction (Z direction) of the main body portion 11 in a state where the blower 10 is viewed from the side surface side (for example, X2 side).

The Z1 side of the grip portion 20 constitutes a front portion 20a. An operation unit 40 is provided on the front surface 20a of the grip unit 20. When the blower 10 is used, the operation unit 40 (specifically, the power switch 42) is operated by the user, and the blower 10 starts or stops. Further, by operating the operation unit 40 (specifically, the operation button 41), the type of air (warm air/cool air) blown out from the air outlet 12, the volume of air, and the like are adjusted. In addition, the operation mode of the blower 10 is switched by the operation of the operation portion 40 (specifically, the operation button 41).

Below the grip 20, a power cord 22 is mounted. Furthermore, in other aspects of the invention, the blower 10 may also be of the wireless (cord) type. In this case, for example, a primary battery or a secondary battery is provided in the body 11 or the grip portion 20.

(regarding the shape of the blower)

Next, the outline shape of the blower 10 will be described.

As shown in fig. 2, the blower 10 has a substantially T-shape when viewed from the side (side view). In addition, as shown in fig. 1, the front side (Z1 side) of the blower 10 includes: a front surface portion 11a having a substantially circular shape; a front surface portion 20a having a substantially rectangular shape and a narrower width than the front surface portion 11a; and an inclined surface 20b whose width gradually narrows from the front surface portion 11a toward the front surface portion 20a.

The display unit 30, the 1 st irradiation unit 50a, the 2 nd irradiation unit 50b, and the operation unit 40 are all disposed on the front side (Z1 side) of the blower 10. At least one of the plurality of operation buttons 41 constituting the operation unit 40 is disposed on the inclined surface 20b.

As shown in fig. 1, the front surface portion 11a of a substantially circular shape has a left-side end portion 13a located at the leftmost side as viewed from the Z1 side, a right-side end portion 13b located at the rightmost side, an upper end portion 14a located at the uppermost side, and a lower end portion 14b located at the lowermost side.

As shown in fig. 1 and the like, the front surface portion 11a has a curved concave shape. In the front surface portion 11a having the curved concave surface shape, the end portions in the left-right direction (X direction) (i.e., the left end portion 13a and the right end portion 13 b) are located on the front side (Z1 side) in side view and plan view (or bottom view) as compared with the end portions in the up-down direction (Y direction) (i.e., the upper end portion 14a and the lower end portion 14 b). That is, the end of the main body 11 in the up-down direction (Y direction) is recessed further toward the upstream side (Z2 side) of the flow of wind than the end of the main body 11 in the left-right direction (X direction). In addition, in the front surface portion 11a having a concave shape, the lower end portion 14b is recessed toward the upstream side (Z2 side) of the flow of wind than the upper end portion 14a in a bottom view.

The display unit 30 is disposed near the center of the front portion 11a, which is recessed from the left and right (X direction) end portions 13a and 13b where the 1 st and 2 nd outlets 12a and 12b are provided. The display unit 30 is disposed on the lower end portion 14b side that does not protrude forward (Z1 side) from the upper end portion 14a of the front surface portion 11 a.

Thus, for example, as shown in fig. 1, when the user views the front surface portion 11a of the blower 10 from the obliquely front side, the content of the display portion 30 can be checked. When the front surface portion 11a has a flat shape, it may be difficult to confirm information of the display portion 30 located between the 1 st air outlet 12a and the 2 nd air outlet 12b due to an influence of reflection of light or the like. In contrast, in the present embodiment, since the display portion 30 is provided in the concave portion of the front surface portion 11a having a curved concave shape, the influence of the reflection of light is reduced, and the display portion 30 can be easily checked. In addition, according to this configuration, the display unit 30 can be checked from a wider range of directions (for example, from a direction of inclination in which the inclination is large).

(construction of the front surface portion of the blower)

Next, the configuration of the front portion of the blower 10 will be described with reference to fig. 4. The front portion of the blower 10 mainly includes a front surface portion 11a of the main body 11, and front and inclined surfaces 20a, 20b of the grip portion 20.

A 1 st air outlet 12a is provided along the outer periphery of the front surface portion 11a on the left side of the front surface portion 11a when viewed from the Z1 side. Further, a 2 nd air outlet 12b is provided along the outer periphery of the front face portion 11a on the right side of the front face portion 11a when viewed from the Z1 side. The 1 st air outlet 12a extends upward and downward around the left end 13 a. The 2 nd air outlet 12b extends upward and downward around the right end 13 b.

The front surface portion 11a has a concave shape between the 1 st air outlet 12a and the 2 nd air outlet 12b. That is, in the front face portion 11a, the center portion (the position where the distance sensor 60 is formed) is recessed to the most rearward side (the upstream side in the wind sending direction). In the present embodiment, the central portion has a substantially flat shape.

The 1 st irradiation part 50a is provided between the 1 st discharge port 12a and the central part, and the 2 nd irradiation part 50b is provided between the 2 nd discharge port 12b and the central part. That is, the 1 st irradiation portion 50a and the 2 nd irradiation portion 50b are formed at positions on the inner side of the formation positions of the 1 st blow-out port 12a and the 2 nd blow-out port 12b of the front surface portion 11a of the main body portion 11, respectively.

Further, a display unit 30 for displaying the operation state of the blower 10 is provided on the front surface portion 11a of the main body 11 inside the 1 st irradiation portion 50a and the 2 nd irradiation portion 50b.

The front surface portion 11a has operation mode display portions 31 (31 a to 31 f) for displaying operation modes, which form part of the display portion 30, below the center portion and at the outer peripheral portion of the center portion, and has a temperature display portion 32 above the center portion. In this way, the display unit 30 is disposed at a position recessed upstream in the wind sending direction from the outlet 12 located at the downstream end of the wind blowing path. That is, the display unit 30 is disposed at a recessed position of the front surface portion 11 a.

Further, a distance sensor 60 is formed in the center of the front surface portion 11 a. The distance from the blower 10 to the user (head) of the blower 10 is measured by the distance sensor 60. The measurement values of the distance sensor 60 are used for controlling various operations of the blower 10.

An operation portion 40 is provided on the inclined surface 20b located below the front surface portion 11a and the front surface portion 20a of the grip portion 20. The operation unit 40 includes a plurality of operation buttons 41 and a power switch 42.

(regarding the display portion)

Next, a more specific configuration of the display unit 30 will be described. The display unit 30 is disposed on the downstream end side (i.e., the front surface 11 a) of the wind blowing path. The display unit 30 includes an operation mode display unit 31 and a temperature display unit 32.

The operation mode display unit 31 is, for example, a display unit for displaying various operation modes of the blower 10, such as a normal mode, a quick-drying mode, a styling mode, and a hair care mode (ion blow mode). In the present embodiment, the operation mode display unit 31 includes 6 LED lamps 31a to 31f.

As shown in fig. 4, the plurality of LED lamps 31a, 31b, 31c, 31d, 31e, 31f constituting the operation mode display section 31 are arranged below the front surface section 11a in the longitudinal direction (Y direction). The user of the blower 10 switches the operation mode of the blower 10 by operating the operation button 41 of the operation portion 40. Then, among the plurality of LED lamps 31a, 31b, 31c, 31d, 31e, 31f, the LED lamp corresponding to the selected current operation mode is turned on.

In one example, when the operation mode of the blower 10 is the normal mode, only the uppermost LED lamp 31a is turned on. In addition, when the operation mode of the blower 10 is the quick-drying mode, only the second LED lamp 31b is turned on from above. When the operation mode of the blower 10 is the model mode, only the third LED lamp 31c is turned on from above. In addition, when the operation mode of the blower 10 is the hair care mode, only the lowermost LED lamp 31d is turned on. In addition, when the operation mode of the blower 10 is the scalp care mode (1), only the LED lamp 31e is turned on. Further, when the operation mode of the blower 10 is the scalp care mode (2), only the LED lamp 31f is turned on.

The plurality of LED lamps 31a, 31b, 31c, 31d, 31e, 31f constituting the operation mode display unit 31 are arranged in a longitudinal direction at substantially the center in the left-right direction (X direction) of the front surface portion 11a located between the 1 st air outlet 12a and the 2 nd air outlet 12b. The LED lamps 31a, 31b, 31c, 31d, 31e, and 31f are arranged at portions extending along a central line passing through the substantial center of the front surface portion 20a. This makes it easier for the user to confirm which of the plurality of LED lamps 31a, 31b, 31c, 31d, 31e, and 31f is on. Therefore, a user who is using the blower 10 can easily confirm the current operation mode.

The temperature display unit 32 displays the temperature of the air blown out from the air outlet 12, such as warm air, cool air, and the like. The temperature display unit 32 displays the temperature of the wind by color, for example. Specifically, the temperature display unit 32 turns red when warm air is blown, and the temperature display unit 32 turns blue when cool air is blown.

In this case, the temperature display unit 32 includes a red LED lamp, a blue LED lamp, and the like. When warm air is blown out from the air outlet 12, the red LED lamp is lighted and emits a color. When cool air is blown out from the air outlet 12, the blue LED lamp is turned on and emits a color. Thus, the user can easily recognize whether the blown air is warm air or cool air.

(irradiation section)

As shown in fig. 4, the 1 st irradiation unit 50a and the 2 nd irradiation unit 50b include 2 red LEDs 51 a (red light irradiation unit) that irradiate red light and 2 blue LEDs 51b (blue light irradiation unit) that irradiate blue light, respectively. The 1 st irradiation section 50a and the 2 nd irradiation section 50b are arranged around the display section 30 with the red LED51 a and the blue LED51b, respectively. In the present embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, the red LEDs 51 a and the blue LEDs 51b are arranged so as to sandwich the display unit 30 from the left-right (X1-X2) direction, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

The red LED51 a and the blue LED51b of the 1 st irradiation section 50a are arranged along the 1 st discharge port 12a. Here, the red LEDs 51 a, the blue LEDs 51b, and the red LEDs 51 a are arranged in a row at substantially equal intervals in order from the Y1 side toward the Y2 side. That is, 2 blue LEDs 51b are arranged adjacent to each other, and 2 red LEDs 51 a are arranged with 2 blue LEDs 51b adjacent to each other interposed therebetween. The red LEDs 51 a and the blue LEDs 51b may be arranged such that the centers of the LEDs are positioned on a straight line, or may be arranged such that the centers of the LEDs are positioned on an arc-shaped virtual line along the arc-shaped 1 st outlet 12a.

Similarly, the red LED51 a and the blue LED51b of the 2 nd irradiation portion 50b are arranged along the 2 nd blowout port 12b. Here, red LEDs 51 a, blue LEDs 51b, and red LEDs 51 a are arranged in this order from the Y1 side toward the Y2 side at substantially equal intervals as an example. That is, 2 blue LEDs 51b are arranged adjacent to each other, and 2 red LEDs 51 a are arranged with 2 blue LEDs 51b adjacent to each other interposed therebetween. The red LEDs 51 a and the blue LEDs 51b may be arranged such that the centers of the LEDs are positioned on a straight line, or may be arranged such that the centers of the LEDs are positioned on an arc-shaped virtual line along the arc-shaped 2 nd outlet 12b.

The 1 st irradiation part 50a and the 2 nd irradiation part 50b irradiate LED light in the same direction as the direction of the wind blown out from the 1 st air outlet 12a and the 2 nd air outlet 12b. Thus, the LED light irradiated from the 1 st irradiation part 50a and the 2 nd irradiation part 50b can be irradiated to the scalp together with the wind blown out from the 1 st and 2 nd outlets 12a and 12b.

Here, the red LED light emitted from the red LED51 a is light in a wavelength range of 618nm to 635nm, and the blue LED light emitted from the blue LED51b is light in a wavelength range of 405nm to 415 nm. By irradiating the scalp with any of the LED lights, it is expected to adjust the environment of the scalp.

The scalp environment can be adjusted not only by irradiating the scalp with LED light but also by directly stimulating the head. An example in which a head stimulating body for directly stimulating the head is attached to the blower 10 shown in fig. 1 will be described below.

(outline of head stimulator)

Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the head stimulating body 70 viewed from the front side (Z1 side). Fig. 6 is a side view of the head stimulating body 70 viewed from the side (X2 side).

The head stimulating body 70 includes a 1 st rod-like body (stimulating body) 71, a 2 nd rod-like body (stimulating body) 72, a body 73 to which the 1 st rod-like body 71 and the 2 nd rod-like body 72 are attached, and an attachment portion 74 used when attaching the body 73 to the blower 10, and is detachably attached to the blower 10. The head can be sandwiched between the 1 st rod-like body (stimulator) 71 and the 2 nd rod-like body (stimulator) 72 from both side surfaces.

The main body 73 is substantially cylindrical and has an inner diameter slightly larger than the outer diameter of the outlet 12 of the blower 10, the 1 st rod 71 and the 2 nd rod 72 are attached to the front end 73a (Z1 side), and the rear end 73b (Z2 side) is fitted to the outer peripheral end of the outlet 12 of the blower 10. The main body 73 has an engagement member 75, and the engagement member 75 is engaged with the upper and lower ends of the respective outlets (the 1 st outlet 12a, the 2 nd outlet 12 b). Details of the engagement of the main body 73 with the air outlet 12 by the engagement member 75 will be described later.

The 1 st rod-like body 71 is disposed on the left side (X1 side) when the main body 73 is viewed from the front side (Z1 side), and the 2 nd rod-like body 72 is disposed on the right side (X2 side) when the main body 73 is viewed from the front side (Z1 side). The 1 st rod-like body 71 and the 2 nd rod-like body 72 are provided by members having flexibility.

The 1 st stick-like body 71 has a plurality of stick-like bodies 71a that extend in the same direction (from Z2 to Z1) as the wind blown out from the outlet 12 of the blower 10. The plurality of rod-shaped bodies 71a have flexibility and are provided so that the distal ends thereof are smoothly curved inward (X2 side).

The 2 nd rod-like body 72 also has a plurality of finger-like bodies 72a extending in the same direction (from Z2 to Z1) as the air blown out from the outlet 12 of the blower 10, like the 1 st rod-like body 71. The plurality of rod-shaped bodies 72a have flexibility and are provided so that the distal ends thereof are smoothly curved inward (X1 side).

As described above, the 1 st rod-like body 71 and the 2 nd rod-like body 72 are provided by members having flexibility. Therefore, when the head is inserted between the 1 st rod-like body 71 and the 2 nd rod-like body 72, the 1 st rod-like body 71 is deflected to the left (X1 side) and the 2 nd rod-like body 72 is deflected to the right (X2 side). Thus, by repeatedly moving the head stimulating body 70 toward the head and moving (reciprocating) in a direction away from the head, stimulation can be applied to the head by the 1 st rod-like body 71 and the 2 nd rod-like body 72. That is, the rod 71a of the 1 st rod 71 and the rod 72a of the 2 nd rod 72 of the head stimulator 70 pull out the hair of the head and the tips of the respective rods come into contact with the scalp, thereby stimulating the scalp. The head stimulating body 70 can be moved back and forth with respect to the head to initiate hair. That is, the head stimulating body 70 can pluck out the hair while stimulating the head of the user.

Next, the blower 10 to which the head stimulating body 70 is attached will be described.

(Hair dryer with head stimulator attached thereto)

Fig. 7 is a perspective view showing an external configuration of the blower 10 with the head stimulating body 70 attached thereto, as viewed from the front side (Z1 side). Fig. 8 is a side view of the blower 10 with the head stimulator 70 attached thereto, as viewed from the side (X2 side). Fig. 9 is a front view of the blower 10 with the head stimulating body 70 attached thereto, as viewed from the front side (Z1 side).

As shown in fig. 9, the mounting positions of the 1 st and 2 nd rod- like bodies 71, 72 constituting the head stimulating body 70 are symmetrically arranged with respect to an imaginary line X extending from the grip portion 20 to the main body portion 11 when viewed from the front of the main body portion 11 of the blower 10. However, it is not limited thereto.

When the head stimulating body 70 is attached to the blower 10, the attachment portion 74 and the engaging member 75 are used so as not to come off from the front end portion 73a of the main body portion 73. The mounting portion 74 has: a 1 st mounting portion 74a mounted to an upper end of the front end portion 73a of the main body portion 73; and a 2 nd mounting portion 74b mounted to a lower end of the front end portion 73b of the main body portion 73. The head stimulating body 70 is attached to the blower 10 by engaging the engaging members 75 supported by the 1 st mounting portion 74a and the 2 nd mounting portion 74b with the outlet 12 of the blower 10. The engagement member 75 is a plate-like member having elasticity and extending in the up-down direction (Y direction). The engaging member 75 has engaging portions 75a formed at 4 corners, and each engaging portion 75a is formed to engage with the upper end and the lower end of each of the 1 st outlet 12a and the 2 nd outlet 12b constituting the outlet 12 of the blower 10. The engaging member 75 is shaped so as not to block the left and right sides (X1-X2) of the main body 73 when the head stimulating body 70 is attached to the blower 10. That is, the engaging member 75 is shaped so as not to block the 1 st outlet 12a and the 2 nd outlet 12b formed at the end portions of the left and right (X1-X2) side portions of the front face portion 11a of the main body portion 11 of the blower 10 in a state where the head stimulating body 70 is attached to the blower 10. The mounting portion 74 is also shaped so as not to block the irradiation portions 50 (the 1 st irradiation portion 50a and the 2 nd irradiation portion 50 b) formed on the inner side of the 1 st and 2 nd discharge ports 12a and 12b formed on the front surface portion 11 a.

As shown in fig. 9, in a state where the head stimulating body 70 is attached to the blower 10, the 1 st and 2 nd rod-shaped bodies 71 and 72 constituting the head stimulating body 70 are attached to the main body 73 so as not to block the 1 st and 2 nd outlets 12a and 12b when viewed from the front side (Z1 side). That is, the mounting positions of the 1 st and 2 nd rod- like bodies 71, 72 are positions where the 1 st and 2 nd rod- like bodies 71, 72 do not overlap with the 1 st and 2 nd outlets 12a, 12b when viewed from the front of the main body 11.

The 1 st and 2 nd rod- like bodies 71 and 72 may be assembled so as not to block at least the wind (main stream wind) blown from the front face of the main body 11 toward the object side (head) opposite to the front face, out of the wind blown from the 1 st and 2 nd outlets 12a and 12b.

The mounting positions of the 1 st and 2 nd rod- like bodies 71, 72 are also positions where the 1 st and 2 nd rod- like bodies 71, 72 do not overlap with the irradiation portions 50 (the 1 st and 2 nd irradiation portions 50a, 50 b) when viewed from the front of the main body 11.

The mounting positions of the 1 st and 2 nd rod- like bodies 71 and 72 may be positions at which at least the optical axes of the LED light irradiated from the irradiation units 50 (the 1 st and 2 nd irradiation units 50a and 50 b) are not blocked by the 1 st and 2 nd rod- like bodies 71 and 72.

(Effect)

Fig. 10 is a view showing a use example in which the user 101 uses the blower 10 mounted with the head stimulating body 70.

The user 101 performs scalp massage by the rod 71a of the 1 st rod-like body 71 and the rod 72a of the 2 nd rod-like body 72 while abutting the 1 st rod-like body 71 and the 2 nd rod-like body 72 of the head stimulator 70 against the head of the user. The 1 st and 2 nd rod- like bodies 71 and 72 are fitted to positions that do not block the optical axis of the LED light irradiated from the irradiation portion 50 of the blower 10 and do not block the main stream wind blown out from the blow-out port 12 of the blower 10. Accordingly, by stimulating the head of the user 101 with the head stimulating body 70 and pulling the head hair, the main stream air and the LED light from the blower 10 can be effectively delivered to the scalp while performing scalp massage. Thus, if the hair dryer 10 with the head stimulator 70 attached thereto is used, the scalp care of the user 101 can be effectively performed. In fig. 10, the blower 10 having the head stimulating body 70 attached thereto is used so as to sandwich the head from above, but is not limited thereto. For example, the blower 10 to which the head stimulator 70 is attached may be used so as to sandwich the side head in the front-rear direction, or may be used so as to sandwich the head from any direction.

In order to perform scalp care of the user 101 more effectively, it is conceivable to further use the fitting 80 for head stimulation for the hair dryer 10 to which the head stimulating body 70 is attached.

[ embodiment 2 ]

Another embodiment of the present invention is described below. In addition, for convenience of explanation, members having the same functions as those described in the above embodiments are given the same reference numerals, and the explanation thereof is not repeated.

In this embodiment, an example will be described in which a separate fitting for head stimulation is further attached to the hair dryer 10 to which the head stimulator 70 of embodiment 1 is attached.

(outline of accessory)

Fig. 11 shows an external configuration of the fitting 80, which is a perspective view when viewed from the front side (Z1 side). Fig. 12 is a perspective view of the head stimulator 70 with the attachment 80 attached, as seen from the front side (Z1 side). Fig. 13 is a side view of the head stimulator 70 with the attachment 80 attached thereto, as viewed from the side (X2 side).

Fitting 80 comprises: a base portion 81; a 1 st mounting portion 82 and a 2 nd mounting portion 83 for mounting the base portion 81 to the head stimulating body 70; and a plurality of 1 st and 2 nd protrusions 84 and 85 protruding from the surface 81a of the base portion 81. Here, the surface 81a of the base portion 81 is a surface opposite to the back surface facing the head stimulating body 70 when attached to the head stimulating body 70.

The base portion 81 includes a substantially disk-shaped member, and a predetermined region at both side (X1-X2 side) ends has light transmittance. The outer diameter of the base portion 81 is set to a size that does not clog the outlet 12 (the 1 st outlet 12a, the 2 nd outlet 12 b) of the blower 10 when the base portion 81 is attached to the head stimulator 70.

The 1 st mounting portion 82 is provided on the upper end portion side (Y1 side) of the base portion 81, and an engagement portion 82a is formed to engage with the upper end portion 74a of the mounting portion 74 of the head stimulating body 70 when the fitting 80 is mounted to the head stimulating body 70.

The 2 nd attachment portion 83 is provided on the lower end portion side (Y2 side) of the base portion 81, and is formed with an engagement portion 83a that engages with the lower end portion 74b of the attachment portion 74 of the head stimulation body 70 when the fitting 80 is attached to the head stimulation body 70.

The 1 st projection 84 is provided with 4 light-transmitting regions along both side (X1-X2 side) ends of the surface 81a of the base portion 81. The 1 st projection 84 includes: a translucent central portion 84a extending from the base portion 81 side to the distal end portion; and a non-light-transmissive outer peripheral portion 84b provided on the outer periphery of the central portion 84 a. Specifically, the outer peripheral portion 84b has a tapered shape including a non-light-transmitting material, and the center portion 84a includes a through hole extending from the base portion 81 side to the tip end portion of the 1 st projection 84 to pierce the outer peripheral portion 84b. In short, the outer peripheral portion 84b corresponds to a taper located on the outer periphery of the central portion 84a as the through hole. The through hole as the center portion 84a is provided at a center position of the taper body along the protruding direction of the outer peripheral portion 84b.

Thus, the outer periphery of the translucent center portion 84a is surrounded by the outer periphery portion 84b containing the non-translucent material, and thus, light entering from the base portion 81 side of the center portion 84a does not enter the outer periphery portion 84b. Thus, attenuation of light entering from the base portion 81 side of the center 84a is reduced. Thus, the light entering from the base portion 81 side of the center portion 84a can be efficiently guided to the tip end portion of the 1 st projection portion 84 (center portion 84 a), and the light can be released from the tip end portion in the protruding direction of the 1 st projection portion 84.

The 2 nd protrusion 85 includes a small protrusion 85a provided adjacent to the 1 st protrusion 84 at both side (X1-X2 side) ends of the surface 81a of the base portion 81, and a large protrusion 85b provided at the center of the surface 81a of the base portion 81. The small protrusions 85a and the large protrusions 85b are tapered bodies containing a non-light transmissive material. The small protrusion 85a and the large protrusion 85b may have light transmittance.

The 1 st projection 84 and the 2 nd projection 85 each have a surface with a tip end portion curved in a convex shape. The 1 st projection 84 and the 2 nd projection 85 may be of a length that can stimulate the center of the head when the 1 st rod-like body 71 and the 2 nd rod-like body 72 stimulate both sides of the head in a state where the attachment 80 is attached to the head stimulating body 70. In this way, the head stimulating body 70 with the fitting 80 mounted thereto can apply more stimulation to the head of the user.

Next, the hair dryer 10 to which the head stimulator 70 to which the attachment 80 is attached is described.

(Hair dryer with head stimulator attached thereto)

Fig. 14 is a perspective view showing an external configuration of the blower 10 with the head stimulator 70 attached with the attachment 80, as viewed from the front side (Z1 side). Fig. 15 is a side view of the blower 10 with the head stimulator 70 with the attachment 80 attached thereto viewed from the side (X2 side). Fig. 16 is a front view of the blower 10 with the head stimulator 70 with the attachment 80 attached thereto viewed from the front side (Z1 side).

When the fitting 80 is attached to the head stimulating body 70, first, the 1 st attachment portion 82 and the 2 nd attachment portion 83 are engaged with an engagement portion provided in the main body portion 73 while the back surface of the base portion 81 of the fitting 80 is directed to the main body portion 73 side of the head stimulating body 70. Thereby, the attachment 80 is attached to the head stimulating body 70 so as not to fall off.

That is, the base portion 81 is shaped so as not to block the 1 st outlet 12a and the 2 nd outlet 12b formed at the end portions of the left and right (X1-X2) side portions of the front face portion 11a of the main body portion 11 of the blower 10 in a state where the head stimulator 70 to which the attachment 80 is attached to the blower 10.

The base portion 81 of the fitting 80 is shaped so as to be blocked by the irradiation portions 50 (the 1 st irradiation portion 50a and the 2 nd irradiation portion 50 b) formed on the inner side of the 1 st and 2 nd discharge ports 12a and 12b formed on the front surface portion 11 a. However, the 1 st projection 84 formed on the base portion 81 is formed on the base portion 81 opposite to the 1 st irradiation portion 50a and the 2 nd irradiation portion 50b, respectively, in a state where the head stimulator 70 is attached to the blower 10. Thus, the light irradiated from the 1 st irradiation portion 50a and the 2 nd irradiation portion 50b can be released from the tip end portion of the 1 st projection portion 84.

The 1 st projection 84 is provided so as to correspond to the red LED51 a and the blue LED51b included in the 1 st irradiation portion 50a and the 2 nd irradiation portion 50b, respectively. Accordingly, the red LED light or the blue LED light is emitted from the tip end portion of the 1 st projection 84. Therefore, since the red LED light and the blue LED light can be irradiated to the scalp from a very short distance, scalp care can be performed more effectively by using the LED light.

(Effect)

According to the hair dryer 10 to which the head stimulating body 70 of the attachment 80 is attached, the 1 st and 2 nd projecting portions 84 and 85 of the attachment 80 can further stimulate the scalp while the 1 st and 2 nd rod-shaped bodies 71 and 72 of the head stimulating body 70 are used to stimulate the head of the user with the head of the user interposed therebetween. Further, since the 1 st projection 84 can radiate the red LED light and the blue LED light to the scalp at a very short distance, the scalp care can be performed more effectively by the LED light.

In the above embodiments, the number of the red LEDs 51 a and the blue LEDs 51b included in the 1 st irradiation unit 50a and the 2 nd irradiation unit 50b is 2, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The arrangement positions of the red LED51 a and the blue LED51b are not limited to the order of the red LED51 a, the blue LED51b, and the red LED51 a.

For example, the 1 st irradiation unit 50a may include 1 red LED51 a and 1 blue LED51b, and the 2 nd irradiation unit 50b may include 1 red LED51 a and 1 blue LED51b, respectively. Further, the 1 st irradiation unit 50a and the 2 nd irradiation unit 50b may include only LEDs of the same color. For example, the 1 st irradiation unit 50a may include 2 or more red LEDs 51 a (or blue LEDs 51 b), and the 2 nd irradiation unit 50b may include 2 or more red LEDs 51 a (or blue LEDs 51 b).
