Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hair removal device of the type comprising a rotary roller fitted with pliers designed to pluck excess hair, not of the human body.
  • This type of device has clamps in the form of blades or discs arranged on a rotating roller, the clamps being caused to close and open periodically so as to tighten the hairs close to the skin and, respectively, to evacuate the hairs pulled out by the rotation of the roller. Hair removal is a very effective method against regrowth, but often it causes significant pain.
  • WO 97/00032 has also been proposed with a tweezer rotary comprising a series of movable rollers pushed radially by the centrifugal force and / or by springs, castors which apply pulses mechanical on the skin to camouflage the pain caused by lifting hairs.
  • This solution is however complicated, it also requires execution details and high costs for its components.
  • the object of the invention is to remedy, at least in part, the drawbacks mentioned above and to propose a tweezer with pliers intended for applying vibrational stimulation on the area to be epilated substantially at the same time that plucking the hairs so as to effectively mask the pain felt during hair removal.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a hair-removing device with a roller tongs comprising means capable of efficiently generating vibrations in said roller while ensuring good damping of vibrations in the housing of the device.
  • Another object of the invention is a hair removal device provided with pain-relieving means reliable, simple construction and suitable for mass production, for lower manufacturing costs.
  • An additional object of the invention is a means of hair removal painkillers which act simultaneously with the uprooting, while leaving visible the These goals are achieved with a hair removal device to remove body hair comprising a roller mounted to rotate in a housing intended to be held by hand, said roller comprising at least two clamps intended to clamp and tear off the bristles, the roller being capable of being rotated by a motor electric via a transmission system, since the assembly formed by the roller, the transmission system and the engine is divided into two parts, each part being secured to a separate support mounted floating relative to the and being driven in vibration at a predetermined frequency, the vibration movement of one of the parts being in phase opposition by compared to that of the other party.
  • the means for rotating the epilation roller are also designed to generate vibrations in the roller at the same time as the uprooting.
  • the vibratory stress on the skin therefore produces an effect pain reliever simultaneously with the hair removal process reducing pain while throughout this process. So, in order to prevent the transmission of these vibrations to the housing and from here in the user's hand, it also solicits vibration, same frequency, but in phase opposition, the other moving parts of the roller drive mechanism. Means are provided for keep the assembly in contact during operation.
  • the assembly formed by the roller, the transmission system and the motor electric actuator is therefore split into two parts which vibrate at the same frequency, in phase opposition, parts which are mounted on supports mounted floating relative to the housing so that they can vibrate independently of each other. Therefore, at the time of training in vibration of the two parts the vibrations of a first part, in particular of the roller cancel those of the second part, in particular of the motor, so that the vibrations are completely neutralized with respect to a fixed mark, including the housing.
  • the assembly formed by the roller, the transmission system and the engine is split into two parts of substantially equal mass.
  • the parameters of the vibrations generated in these two parts can be better controlled, especially when using a unique means of vibration which oscillates the two at the same time parts.
  • the frequency of the vibrations produced in the rotary roller is greater than 50 Hz.
  • the frequency can be advantageously chosen by the speed of rotation of the unbalanced part.
  • the elastic means of mounting the assembly in the case and the moving part are determined so that the amplitude vibration is between 0.1 mm and 1 mm, preferably 0.5 mm.
  • the moving part generates vibrations of the rotating roller in a direction substantially perpendicular to the skin.
  • the rotary roller therefore strikes the skin vertically, the vibrations being completely absorbed by the latter, which provides an analgesic effect effective. Oscillatory movements in phase opposition are produced easily in the longitudinal direction of the housing.
  • the supports of the moving parts are actuated by vibrating means integrated into the transmission system.
  • Vibration systems could have been produced, in particular in the form two integral weights, one of the hair removal roller and producing vibrations of a certain frequency and amplitude in the latter, and the other integral with the engine and / or transmission system and vibrating at the same frequency, but 180 ° out of phase.
  • said means for vibrating consist of a rotary part whose axis of rotation is mounted fixed relative to the housing, said rotary part comprising a first toothing provided to cooperate with a first toothed wheel secured to the first support and a second toothing designed to cooperate with a second toothed wheel secured to the second support, the center of the cross section of each toothing being offset by on either side of the common axis of rotation in a direction perpendicular to this last.
  • the moving masses are split into two parts, each part being integral with a support mounted floating relative to the housing so that that each support can be driven in vibration separately.
  • a rotating part provided with at least one toothing because it can be easily integrated into the transmission system or gear train, this part being able to be rotated by a wheel neighbor or by the motor output axis.
  • the constructive parameters of this part in particular the diameters, speeds, modules of its teeth can be calculated so as to obtain a speed of operation of the roller and a predetermined vibration frequency of this latest.
  • each support performs a translational movement in the direction of the respective eccentricity, so that displacements in opposite directions of the two supports.
  • the first toothing has a value offset equal, but diametrically opposite to the eccentricity of the second toothing.
  • the value of the eccentricity of each toothing relative to its axis of rotation corresponds to half the amplitude of the vibrations obtained in each of the supports.
  • the rotary part with two offset teeth induces vibrations of equal amplitudes, but in opposite directions in each of the supports.
  • the two teeth act on the floating supports by moving them away one from another.
  • the amplitude of the vibrations obtained in this case is maximum and it is represented by the sum of the eccentricities of the two teeth, in particular twice one of them for equal values of the two eccentricities.
  • the eccentricity of the teeth is adjusted so that that the maximum amplitude of the vibrations is obtained when the clamps are in the closed position.
  • the maximum amplitude of stimulation is obtained just before uprooting hair, which provides very effective skin stimulation.
  • the supports are mounted sliding on guides in the housing.
