Definitions

  • the invention relates to hair dryers comprising a housing, a region of which comprises means for fixing to a vertical wall such as for example a wall, and which contains a group of hot air generators with a fan motor controlled by an electric switch. and intended to establish a current of air between an air inlet orifice and a hot air outlet orifice.
  • the hot air outlet orifice receives a connector secured to a flexible tube equipped with a hair drying nozzle which can be brought either to a storage position. or rest for which the switch is in an open state, or in a position of use for which the switch is in a closed state and allows drying of the hair
  • the electrical switch is generally mounted in a housing of the housing and is controlled directly by the nozzle when it comes off the housing and vice versa. This type of command proves dangerous because if the user forgets to hang up or if the hook takes place inadvertently, the generator group operates continuously and may catch fire in certain cases, for example, when the motor-driven fan malfunctions.
  • the object of the present invention is in particular to eliminate these drawbacks.
  • the connector is mounted so as to be able to rotate on said hot air outlet orifice, and comprises a means for actuating the switch such that the passage of the drying nozzle from its storage or rest position. in its position of use, by transmitting the movement of said nozzle to the connector by means of the flexible tube, the switch in its closed state and vice versa.
  • the pivoting of the connector is subordinate to the spatial position of the nozzle and automatically causes the switch to be placed in the open state when the nozzle is brought into the storage or rest position.
  • the hair dryer shown comprises a housing 1 having the general shape of a cylinder whose end partitions 1a-1b are open and one region of its lateral surface has a boss 2 carrying removable fixing means on a vertical wall P such as, for example, a wall so as to maintain said cylinder in a practically horizontal position and parallel to said vertical wall.
  • the fixing means (not shown) can be buttonholes adapted to hang on hooks fixed to the wall.
  • the box 1 contains a hot air generator group with a motor-fan 3 and of the type with a wound electrical resistance 4.
  • Said group 3-4 is controlled by an electric switch 5 and is intended to establish a current of air between the connections end 1a-1b which respectively have the ambient air inlet 6 and hot air outlet 7 holes.
  • the hot air outlet 7 receives a connector 8 secured to a flexible tube 9 equipped a hair drying nozzle 10 which can be brought either to a storage position (illustrated in solid lines in FIG. 1) or in a rest position (illustrated in broken lines in FIG. 1) for which the switch 5 is in an open state (turning off the hot air generator group), or in a position of use (Figure 2) for which the switch 5 is in a closed state (turning on the hot air generator group) , and allows hair drying.
  • the blowing nozzle 10 and the wall 1b having the air inlet orifice 6 comprise mutual attachment means such as a hook 12 secured to the nozzle 10 and a support 13 secured to the wall 1b, the flexible tube 9 thus having in the storage position the shape of a U.
  • the connector 8 is mounted so as to be able to rotate on the orifice 7 for the outlet of hot air, and comprises an actuating means 14 of the switch 5 such that the passage of the drying nozzle 10 from its position storage or rest (Figure 1) in its position of use ( Figure 2) brings, by transmitting the movement of said nozzle 10 to the connector 8 by means of the flexible tube 9, the switch 5 in its closed state and vice versa.
  • the invention provides, as can be seen better in FIG. 4, that said orifice 7 forms, by its internal edge, a cylindrical bearing 16 to axis substantially horizontal and parallel to the vertical wall P , and the connector 8 has a crown 15 of complementary shape rotatably mounted on said bearing around said axis, the bearing 16 and the crown 15 comprising mutual retaining means constituted by the interlocking of the edge forming a bearing 16 in a U-shaped groove 17 formed in the crown 15.
  • the connector 8 has the shape of an elbow, one end of which comprises the crown 15 which bears on its peripheral edge 15 'turned towards the switch the actuating means 14 of the switch 5, and the other end of which receives the flexible tube 9.
  • the actuating means 14 of the switch 5 is constituted by a wing which extends in an arc of a circle concentric with the crown 15 and defined angularly with respect to the position of switch 5 in the housing.
  • the nozzle 10 in its storage position (illustrated in solid lines in Figure 1).
  • the user wishes to use the hairdryer, he unhooks the nozzle 10 from the wall 1b, then brings it, in the direction of his head, in its position of use.
  • This movement away from the nozzle of the vertical wall P is accompanied by the displacement of the tube 9 whose end connected to the connector 8 causes a tilting torque causing the rotation of said connector on the bearing 16.
  • This rotation of the connector causes l wing 14 from its position illustrated in FIG. 1 for which it maintains the switch 5 in its open position, in a position illustrated, for example, in FIG. 2 and for which it releases the switch 5 which automatically switches to its closed state thus supplying the hot air generator 3-4.
  • the dimensioning and the angular position of the wing 4 with respect to the switch 5 are chosen so that the switch goes from its open state to its closed state as soon as the user moves the nozzle 10 away from the vertical wall P.
