Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hair iron for reducing the transfer of the generated heat from its heating plate to its body portion, and more particularly, to a hair iron which is capable of minimizing the direct transfer of the generated heat from the heating plate to the body, whereby the incidence of burns is reduced, and the iron can be used more safely.
  • a conventional hair iron as shown in Figure 1, has bodies 1 which are coupled by a hinge portion 5 and may be opened to a given angle by means of a spring. Respective heating plates 2 are formed on the inner surface of each of the bodies 1. The heating plates 2 are positioned at the inner surface of the bodies 1 when in a collapsed state. The heating plates 2, the bodies 1 and connection members are coupled in a line contact, without forming any space. Electrical circuits for converting the input power supplied, by means of a power supply cord 4, to another energy and transmitting the energy to other portion, are built into the bodies 1.
  • the hair iron is used to treat a user's hair in various styles, by using the raised temperature of the heating plates 2. However, since the user uses the hair iron by manually grasping it, any heat generated by the heating plate which is transferred to the body, may cause burning.
  • the present invention seeks to provide a hair iron which is capable of minimizing direct transfer of the heat generated in the heating plate to the body, whereby the danger of burning is reduced. and the device can thus be more safely utilized.
  • a hair iron having a pair of heating portions intended, in use, to be held together in contact so that hair to be held therebetween is treated, each said heating portion comprising: a heating plate to which electric current may be applied and whose temperature is maintained uniformly; a connection member with which said heating plate is engaged; and a body in which said connection member is mounted.
  • the heating portion is constructed such that a small space is formed between the heating plate, the connection member and the body, whereby the transfer of heat generated in the heating plate to the body is minimized.
  • the heating portion is also constructed such that an engagement portion of the heating plate, the connection member and the body is contacted in a spot by a protrusion, whereby the transfer of heat generated in the heating plate to the connection member can be minimized.
  • connection member is formed with a protrusion to be engaged with engagement portions of the heating plate and the body, and when being engaged, the heating plate, the connection member and the body are formed with a gap and are contacted in a spot.
  • a spacing member is disposed between the connection member and the body and is made of cushion material.
  • the reference numeral 50 denotes a heating portion.
  • Each heating portion 50 comprises a heating plate 20 to which electric current is applied and whose temperature is maintained uniformly, a connection member 30 with which the heating plate 20 is engaged and having adiabatic functions, and a body 10 in which the connection member 30 is mounted.
  • the connection member 30 and the body 10 are assembled, they are engaged in three-steps so that the heating plate 20 is completely projected to the outside of the body 10.
  • the heating portion 50 is constructed, such that a minute space is formed between the heating plate 20, the connection member 30 and the body 10, whereby the transfer of the heat generated in the heating plate 20 to the body 10 can be minimized.
  • connection member 30, as shown in Figure 3, is formed with at least 2 protrusions 31 which are engaged with engagement rails 21 (see Figure 2) of the heating plate 20.
  • the engagement rails 21 are formed of " ⁇ "-shaped grooves and make a multi-point contact with the connection member 30, via the semi-elliptical sliding protrusions 31.
  • connection member 30 is formed with at least 2 gap protrusions 33 on its outer surface with which the body 20 is engaged.
  • the gap protrusions 33 cause the connection member 30 to be spaced from the body 10 by a predetermined amount.
  • the gap protrusions 33 are formed with minutely being protruded.
  • Spacing members 11 made of resilient (cushion) material are formed between the body 10 and the connection member 30 being engaged with the heating plate 20.
  • the spacing members 11 are disposed on the inner surface of the body 10 at a predetermined height, and the connection member 30 is placed on the upper surface of the spacing members 11. This prevents the connection member 30 from coming into direct contact with the body 10.
  • the heating plate 20, being engaged with the connection member 30, is also engaged with the body 10.
  • a power cord (not shown) is connected to the body 10, and is connected to an external power supply unit. Next, a power switch on the body 10 is turned on by the user, to supply power to the hair iron.
  • the heating plate 20 is typically heated to a temperature greater than 150°C. However, since the heating plate 20 is engaged with the connection member 30, direct transfer of the heat being generated to the surface of the body 10 is minimized.
  • connection member 30 is spaced from the body 10, without being in direct contact with the body 10, and thus the direct transfer of heat to the surface of the body 10 can be minimized.
  • connection member 30 is formed with 2 or more gap protrusions 33 at its outer surface with which the body 20 is engaged.
  • the gap protrusions 33 cause the connection member 30 to be spaced from the body 10 by a predetermined amount.
  • the gap protrusions 33 are formed with minutely being protruded.
  • the hair iron structure of the present invention since direct transfer of the heat generated in the heating plate of the hair iron to the body portion is minimized, the hair iron does not cause burns and can be more safely utilized.
