L'invention se rapporte aux générateurs d'air chaud à usage ménager comprenant un ventilateur entraîné par un moteur électrique, établissant dans un boîtier un courant d'air chauffé par au moins une résistance électrique et s'écoulant entre une ouverture d'aspiration et un orifice de sortie d'air chaud, dit "orifice de chauffage".The invention relates to hot air generators for household use comprising a fan driven by an electric motor, establishing in a housing a stream of air heated by at least one electrical resistance and flowing between a suction opening and a hot air outlet orifice, called "heating orifice".

L'invention a pour but de donner à un générateur d'air chaud de ce genre, outre sa fonction de radiateur ménager de chauffage, une fonction de sèche-cheveux.The object of the invention is to give a hot air generator of this kind, in addition to its function of household heating radiator, a function of hair dryer.

Un générateur d'air chaud selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte, outre ledit orifice de chauffage, un second orifice de sortie d'air chaud, dit "orifice de séchage", adapté à recevoir un tube flexible équipé d'un accessoire de séchage des cheveux, ainsi qu'un volet agencé dans le courant d'air chaud et monté mobile entre une première position, pour laquelle il ouvre l'orifice de chauffage et ferme l'orifice de séchage, et une seconde position, pour laquelle il ouvre l'orifice de séchage et ferme l'orifice de chauffage.A hot air generator according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises, in addition to said heating orifice, a second hot air outlet orifice, called "drying orifice", adapted to receive a flexible tube equipped with '' a hair drying accessory, as well as a flap arranged in the current of hot air and mounted movable between a first position, for which it opens the heating orifice and closes the drying orifice, and a second position , for which it opens the drying opening and closes the heating opening.

Grâce à cette disposition, l'air chaud peut être orienté à volonté vers l'orifice de sortie le plus approprié à la fonction désirée.With this arrangement, the hot air can be directed at will to the outlet most suitable for the desired function.

Les caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention ressortiront d'ailleurs de la description qui va suivre, à titre d'exemple, en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels:

  • la figure 1 est une vue en élévation d'un générateur d'air chaud selon l'invention, avec arrachement d' une partie de la face antérieure du boîtier pour laisser voir partiellement le ventilateur ; la figure 2 représente, en coupe verticale selon la ligne II-II de la figure 1, le générateur d'air chaud équipé d'un accessoire de séchage des cheveux représenté en élévation ; la figure 3 est une coupe verticale partielle selon les lignes III-III des figures 1 et 4 ; la figure 4 est une coupe verticale partielle selon la ligne IV-IV de la figure 2 ; la figure 5 est une vue latérale du volet mobile et d'une manette de commande de ce volet ; la figure 6 est un schéma des résistances de chauffage et du dispositif de commande du générateur.
The characteristics and advantages of the invention will moreover emerge from the description which follows, by way of example, with reference to the appended drawings in which:
  • Figure 1 is an elevational view of a hot air generator according to the invention, with cutaway of a portion of the front face of the housing to partially show the fan; 2 shows, in vertical section along line II-II of Figure 1, the hot air generator equipped with a hair drying accessory shown in elevation; Figure 3 is a partial vertical section along lines III-III of Figures 1 and 4; Figure 4 is a partial vertical section along the line IV-IV of Figure 2; FIG. 5 is a side view of the movable flap and of a control lever for this flap; Figure 6 is a diagram of the heating resistors and the generator control device.

Le générateur d'air chaud représenté comprend un ventilateur 10 entraîné par un moteur électrique 12, établissant dans un boîtier 14 un courant d'air chauffé par un groupe de résistances électriques 16 et s'écoulant entre une ouverture d'aspiration 18 et un orifice de sortie d'air chaud 20, dit "orifice de chauffage".The hot air generator shown comprises a fan 10 driven by an electric motor 12, establishing in a housing 14 a stream of air heated by a group of electric resistors 16 and flowing between a suction opening 18 and an orifice hot air outlet 20, called "heating orifice".

Selon l'invention, ce générateur comporte un second orifice de sortie d'air chaud 22, dit "orifice de séchage", adapté à recevoir un tube flexible 24 équipé d'un accessoire 26 de séchage des cheveux, ainsi qu'un volet 28 monté pivotant dans le courant d'air chaud autour d'un axe 29 orienté transversalement à ce courant d'air. Ce volet peut ainsi passer d'une première position (traits pleins de la figure 2 et traits interrompus de la figure 6) pour laquelle il ouvre l'orifice de chauffage 20 et ferme l'orifice de séchage 22, à une seconde position (traits interrompus de la figure 2 et traits pleins de la figure 6), pour laquelle il ouvre l'orifice de séchage 22 et ferme l'orifice de chauffage 20.According to the invention, this generator has a second hot air outlet orifice 22, called a "drying orifice", adapted to receive a flexible tube 24 equipped with an accessory 26 for drying the hair, as well as a flap 28 pivotally mounted in the stream of hot air around an axis 29 oriented transversely to this stream of air. This flap can thus pass from a first position (solid lines in FIG. 2 and broken lines in FIG. 6) for which it opens the heating orifice 20 and closes the drying orifice 22, to a second position (lines in terrompus of FIG. 2 and solid lines of FIG. 6), for which it opens the drying orifice 22 and closes the heating orifice 20.

Le boîtier 14 présente la forme générale d'un parallélépipède aplati (voir fig.1) dont la face postérieure 30 (fig.2) comporte des moyens de fixation 32 (fig.l) contre une paroi verticale telle qu'un mur. L'ouverture d'aspiration 18 est ménagée dans la région supérieure de la face antérieure 34 de ce boîtier, tandis que les orifices de chauffage 20 et de séchage 22 sont ménagés dans sa face inférieure 36. L'orifice de chauffage 20 est constitué par une série de fentes pratiquées dans la partie droite du bord antérieur de la face 36, tandis que l'orifice de séchage 22 est constitué par un ajutage cylindrique situé entre ladite série de fentes et la face postérieure 30 du boîtier.The housing 14 has the general shape of a flattened parallelepiped (see fig. 1) whose rear face 30 (fig. 2) includes fixing means 32 (fig. L) against a vertical wall such as a wall. The suction opening 18 is formed in the upper region of the front face 34 of this housing, while the heating orifices 20 and drying 22 are formed in its lower face 36. The heating orifice 20 is constituted by a series of slots made in the right part of the front edge of the face 36, while the drying orifice 22 is constituted by a cylindrical nozzle located between said series of slots and the rear face 30 of the housing.

Le générateur est équipé d'un dispositif de commande comprenant une manette circulaire 38, montée rotative autour de son axe sur la face antérieure 34 du boîtier, et susceptible d'occuper ainsi soit une position "radiateur" pour laquelle la puissance émise par le groupe chauffant 16 est relativement élevée, soit une position "sèche-cheveux" pour laquelle la puissance émise est plus réduite. A cet effet, la manette 38 est solidaire de l'armature mobile (schématisée par le trait interrompu 40 de la figure 6) d'un commutateur électrique 42 (fig.3). Cette armature occupe, lorsque la manette 38 est en position radiateur, une première position "R", pour laquelle une première résistance 16' est branchée entre les bornes 44 et 46 du secteur d'alimentation, et, lorsque la manette 38 est en position sèche-cheveux, une seconde position "Sc" pour laquelle la résistance 16' est branchée en série avec une seconde résistance 1611 entre les bornes 44 et 46 du secteur. On notera que le déplacement de l'armature mobile 40 fait varier en outre la vitesse de rotation du moteur 12, pour l'amener à des valeurs appropriées respectivement aux fonctionnements en radiateur et en sèche-cheveux.The generator is equipped with a control device comprising a circular lever 38, rotatably mounted around its axis on the front face 34 of the housing, and thus capable of occupying either a "radiator" position for which the power emitted by the group heater 16 is relatively high, ie a "hair dryer" position for which the power emitted is lower. To this end, the lever 38 is secured to the movable frame (shown schematically by the broken line 40 in Figure 6) of an electrical switch 42 (fig.3). This armature occupies, when the handle 38 is in the radiator position, a first position "R", for which a first resistor 16 'is connected between the terminals 44 and 46 of the supply sector, and, when the handle 38 is in the position hair dryer, a second position "Sc" for which the resistor 16 'is connected in series with a second resistor 1611 between the terminals 44 and 46 of the sector. It will be noted that the movement of the movable armature 40 also varies the speed of rotation of the motor 12, to bring it to appropriate values. respectively to the operation in radiator and hair dryer.

Le dispositif de commande du générateur comprend en outre un organe de transmission entre la manette 38 et le volet 28, tel que le passage de cette manette de la position radiateur (R) à la position sèche-cheveux (Sc) amène le volet de sa première position (ouverture de l'orifice de chauffage 20) à sa seconde position (ouverture de l'orifice de séchage 22), et inversement. Cet organe de transmission comprend une jupe cylindrique 48 qui est solidaire de la périphérie de la manette 38 et dont le bord libre 50 est conformé pour constituer une rampe qui vient en prise avec un coulisseau 52 qui est lui-même en prise avec une patte 56 (fig.4 et 5) solidaire du volet 28, le coulisseau 52 est monté mobile dans des guides 58 (fig.4) solidaires du boîtier et orientés transversalement à l'axe 29 du volet 28.The generator control device further comprises a transmission member between the lever 38 and the flap 28, such that the passage of this lever from the radiator position (R) to the hair dryer position (Sc) brings the flap from its first position (opening of the heating orifice 20) in its second position (opening of the drying orifice 22), and vice versa. This transmission member comprises a cylindrical skirt 48 which is integral with the periphery of the lever 38 and whose free edge 50 is shaped to form a ramp which engages with a slide 52 which itself is engaged with a tab 56 (fig. 4 and 5) secured to the flap 28, the slide 52 is mounted movably in guides 58 (fig. 4) secured to the housing and oriented transversely to the axis 29 of the flap 28.

Comme on le voit sur la figure 5, le volet 28 est soumis à l'action d'un organe élastique qui est constitué par un ressort hélicoïdal 60 coaxial à l'axe 29, et qui rappelle ce volet vers sa position de prise ou de contact avec le coulisseau 52.As can be seen in FIG. 5, the flap 28 is subjected to the action of an elastic member which is constituted by a helical spring 60 coaxial with the axis 29, and which recalls this flap towards its position of engagement or contact with slide 52.

Lorsque l'appareil est utilisé en fonction "radiateur" (volet 28 en traits pleins de la figure 2) la manette 38 est placée de façon telle que l'armature mobile 40 du commutateur 42 effectue le branchement de la résistance 16' aux bornes du secteur d'alimentation (position R). L'air chaud est alors soufflé vers le bas à travers la série de fentes 20.When the device is used in the "radiator" function (flap 28 in solid lines in FIG. 2) the lever 38 is placed so that the movable frame 40 of the switch 42 connects the resistor 16 'to the terminals of the power sector (position R). The hot air is then blown down through the series of slots 20.

Lorsque l'usager désire transformer l'appareil en sèche-cheveux, il suffit qu'il fasse tourner la manette 38 jusqu'à amener l'armature mobile 40 en position telle qu'elle effectue le branchement des deux résistances 16' et 16" en série aux bornes du secteur (position Sc). Simultanément, la rampe 50 solidaire de la manette, s'effaçant devant le coulisseau 52, laisse ce coulisseau et le volet 28 se déplacer vers la position de séchage. L'air chaud est alors soufflé par l'ajutage 22 dans le tube flexible 24.When the user wishes to transform the appliance into a hair dryer, it suffices for him to rotate the handle 38 until the movable armature 40 is in position such that it connects the two resistors 16 ′ and 16 ″ in series across the mains (position Sc). Simultaneously, the ramp 50 integral with the lever, disappearing in front of the slide 52, leaves this slide and the flap 28 to move towards the drying position. The hot air is then blown through the nozzle 22 into the flexible tube 24.

Inversement, pour revenir à la position radiateur, l'usager fera tourner la manette 38 pour replacer l'armature mobile 40 en la position R. Simultanément, la rampe 50 poussera le coulisseau 52 et fera pivoter le volet 28 à l'encontre de l'action du ressort 60 pour ramener ce volet en la position de chauffage.Conversely, to return to the radiator position, the user will rotate the lever 38 to replace the movable armature 40 in the position R. Simultaneously, the ramp 50 will push the slide 52 and rotate the flap 28 against the action of the spring 60 to return this flap to the heating position.
