Description

Hand-held electric hair drier

Technical Field

The present invention relates to the field of hand-held household appliances, in particular to a hand-held hair dryer for hair care and for example hair dryers and heat-setting brushes.

Background

Based on the characteristic that the hair dryer can be rapidly shaped and dried, the hair dryer has a large audience group. The fan unit in the blower can suck air flow from an air inlet of the blower and send the sucked air flow out from an air outlet opposite to the air inlet, so that the drying purpose is achieved. Additionally, hot air blowers (such as heat styling brushes) are used to style hair in either a wet or dry condition. The air outlet of the blower can be connected with an air nozzle, the air speed of the air flow can be improved through the air nozzle, the air flow can be concentrated, and the purpose of modeling is achieved.

The most important performance for a hair dryer is comfort and safety, and it is generally difficult to compromise both with current hair dryers. Particularly, for the travelling comfort, the most direct problem is the time of hair drying, for the great women of hair volume, often dry the hair and need the time of ten minutes to still need swing, the removal hair-dryer that must not stop blow-dry in-process, waste time and energy, lead to the arm hard, influence and use experience. There are no two ways to dry hair quickly, either to raise the temperature or to increase the air volume. The first approach, commonly used by conventional hair dryers, is to increase the temperature to shorten the time required to dry the hair. But high temperatures are prone to safety issues: the hair is baked to be dry, scales and branches are generated, and the scalp is damaged at high temperature. The second way is to increase the air volume only by increasing the motor to drive a larger fan, but the weight and noise of the hair dryer are increased, and the experience is more affected.

Dyson hair dryers are widely accepted by users. The Dyson high-speed digital motor carried by the Dyson hair drier has the advantages that the rotating speed per minute reaches more than 110000 revolutions (twenty-three thousand revolutions per minute of the rotating speed of most hair driers on the market), three times of strong airflow is sprayed by an Air Amplifier airflow multiplication technology, wet hair can be dried in seconds under high-pressure spraying airflow, and the damage to the hair is reduced. Meanwhile, due to the ultrahigh frequency rotating speed of the motor, the frequency of the generated partial noise is very high, and a noise person higher than the upper limit of the common ear hearing (twenty kilohertz) cannot hear the partial noise, so the noise is small. However, because the motor and the fan are arranged in the handle, the annular wall air duct is arranged at the joint of the handle and the air blowing cylinder, air is blown out mainly through the coanda effect, on one hand, the energy utilization efficiency is not high, and on the other hand, the handle cannot be folded.

As shown in fig. 2 (the direction of the arrows indicate the direction of fluid flow), the fluid flow path 104 includes a main fluid path 1041 that extends linearly from the main fluid inlet 101 into the body 10 to the main fluid outlet 105, a side path 1042, and a wall-defining path 1043. The side paths 1042 and the wall defining path 1043 draw fluid through the main fluid path 104 into the fan unit 102. The fan unit 102 is disposed on the main fluid path 1041, and the fan unit 102 draws fluid into the main fluid path 1041 and transports the fluid through the heating element 103 such that the fluid in the main fluid path 1041 is heated.

Generally, a fan unit driven by a digital high-speed motor sucks air fluid to provide high-pressure jet air flow, negative pressure is formed if the air fluid at the front end of the fan unit is not sufficiently supplemented, disturbance is caused to the air flow discharged from the rear end of the fan unit, on one hand, the air outlet speed per unit area is reduced, and on the other hand, large air noise is generated due to air flow disturbance and transverse friction. The side path 1042 and the wall defining path 1043 of the hand-held hair dryer of the present invention converge with the main fluid path 1041 at the front end of the fluid entering fan unit 102. The side paths 1042 and the wall-defining paths 1043 increase the path of the make-up air flow, on the one hand increasing the make-up air velocity to reduce the negative pressure for air flow balancing, and on the other hand eliminating air flow disturbances to reduce air noise.
