Definitions

  • the invention relates to a mechanical hair removal device by plucking hairs on the skin avoiding pain.
  • French patent application FR-A-2 454 283 describes a hair removal device by pulling hairs comprising a housing containing a motor and a helical screw which drives the hairs against the internal part of the casing filled with an adhesive material. A air flow is only intended to draw the hairs into the helical screw. Such a device also includes, at the bottom crankcase, a simply refreshing product vaporizer but unrelated to the pain caused by hair removal.
  • Document EP-A-0 348 862 proposes to attenuate the pain caused by pulling out the numb hair partially the skin just before depilation by cold.
  • the means used are either a thermoelectric element or a cold accumulator.
  • the invention by taking advantage of this observation, is sets the goal of a mechanical hair removal device which, while retaining the functionality of known art devices, allows simultaneously, to delete, or at least greatly reduce the pain sensations caused by pulling out the hair.
  • the hair removal device is provided with means for cooling the area of skin to be depilated, before or during the pulling of the hair. In reality, this action also continues after this operation.
  • the skin is cooled from a distance.
  • a fluid is deposited on the skin by different means: roller applicator, sprayer, etc. Then, we proceed to forced evaporation of the fluid using a ventilation which lowers the surface temperature of the skin a few degrees.
  • the fluid can be water, a more volatile, for example an alcoholic solution, or a antiseptic or hypoallergenic product.
  • humidification of the skin is carried out using a humidifying roller, itself humidified by a fluid contained in a tank autonomous.
  • the humidifier roller itself serves as a reservoir.
  • the means of hair removal (for example a disc and blade roller as described in the request of the aforementioned French patent) are driven by a motor electric incorporated in the housing of the device.
  • the ventilation system is provided by a fan also driven by the motor of means of hair removal.
  • humidification of the skin is carried out before the hair removal operation, means of humidification (a roller for example) being located upstream of the hair removal means relative to the movement of the device on the skin.
  • the moistening of the skin is obtained by spraying the fluid.
  • the invention therefore relates to a hair removal device mechanical by pulling hairs from the skin
  • a hair removal device mechanical by pulling hairs from the skin

  • the mechanical hair removal device according to the invention therefore provides effective mechanical hair removal and in a simple manner, that is to say in particular keeps all of the functionalities of a known Art device provided for this effect. However, it allows you to do this hair removal in comfort conditions that do not allow not said known art devices, that is to say allows strongly attenuate or even suppress the sensations of pain that accompanies the hair removal operation.
  • this advantageous characteristic is obtained without the need to make the structure of the hair removal device.
  • it can be taken advantage of the almost general presence of an engine electric training means of hair removal. It is enough add a fan to this motor which could moreover preexisting for the purpose of cooling said engine.

  • the depilation means 6 are made up, as indicated, by a roller 60 comprising pinching and tearing means (not shown) rotating around a tree, one of the ends 61 is visible in FIG. 1.
  • the lower solid arrow indicates the direction of movement of the epilator device 1 in contact with the skin area P to depilate.
  • the cooling causing a skin numbing P must be done before pulling out the hair.
  • means for moisten the skin P and cool it from a distance are incorporated in the epilator 1.

  • Tank 2 has a cap 201 or the like ensuring sealing after fluid filling. The latter is usually water but any appropriate solution may be added thereto.
  • the average space, or clearance "d" between the surface of the roller 50 and the facing wall is determined so that it fills, by capillary action, with water or more generally liquid, contained in the tank 2.
  • the orifices 200 are then "drowned" and the air cannot no longer enter tank 2 to compensate for the loss of water, which stops the flow. Roll area 50 in look of the wall soaks with water.

  • Suction ports are practiced in the wall of the housing 10, so preferential outside the gripping areas of device 1, so that there is no risk shutter, which would cause a malfunction. In effect, even if the skin P was humidified correctly, it would not be the same with ventilation and the numbing effect by cooling the skin P expected would no longer be obtained.
