Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of mechanical hair treatment and in particular to a straightener device that can be used in particular in combination with a hair dryer or with a blower brush.
  • Most devices for smoothing frizzy or curly hair are based on the principle of the passage of hair between tweezers or rollers. Most of these devices are also provided with heating means such as electric heating elements heating a pad or producing hot air or steam.
  • a first straightener device has been proposed by the inventor as part of the document WO 03/026457 .
  • This device included at least three combs which constituted a pinching element able to exert a continuous tension on the hair while heating them to produce a straightening.
  • This device requires the use of a push button which positions the mobile comb in alignment with the other two combs, making it possible to introduce the hair.
  • the present invention aims to provide an improved hair straightening device with respect to the state of the art, and in particular a device having a number of smaller and more rigid pinching elements, to guide the hair to make them able to push the comb mobile without user intervention.
  • the present invention discloses a device for smoothing the hair, having an outer comb and an inner comb, movably mounted to allow translational movement of the one relative to the other, to pinch the locks of hair so as to to smooth them, the teeth of the outer comb being formed by a succession of arches whose recesses define a tunnel giving way to the inner comb so as to allow an arrangement of said inner comb below the outer comb within said tunnel and to allow said translation movement of the inner comb relative to the outer comb in order to shift the teeth of said inner comb relative to the planes formed by the arches of the outer comb.
  • FIG. 1 represents the essential elements of the present invention, namely a tunnel comb with a mobile comb that can move inside this tunnel by means of a spring.
  • Figure 2 shows the adjustment mechanism of the spring of the moving comb.
  • Figure 3 shows sections A-A 'and B-B' with both a plan view and a side view of the tunnel comb with the moving comb moving within the tunnel comb; the plan view of the section B-B 'visualizing the smoothing of the hair when the moving comb is actuated in the direction of the arrow.
  • Figure 4 shows in section A-A 'the introduction of strands of hair to smooth in the smoothing device.
  • Figures 4, 5 and 6 respectively represent the mechanism of introduction of hair or strands to smooth in the device followed by smoothing these same locks.
  • Figure 7 shows a possible use of the device of the invention on a hair dryer.
  • Figure 8 shows a possible use of the device of the invention on a blower brush.
  • the device of the present invention can be applied to both a blower brush or a hair dryer. He can also be self-sufficient.
  • the device of the invention comprises two essential elements, these are two combs nested one inside the other that we will call “inner comb 2" and "outer comb 1".
  • the outer comb 1 is in the form of a multitude of arches 3 aligned with a hollow portion formed by the recesses of the successive arches and forming a tunnel 4 in which the inner comb is located, both being arranged in a movable manner. one with respect to the other.
  • the word arc is to be interpreted in the architectural sense according to the definition of Larousse.
  • the inner comb 2 has a shape similar to the hollow formed by the arches 3 of the outer comb 1. One being movable relative to the other.
  • the two essential elements, ie the inner comb 2 and the outer comb 1 of this straightening device are visible in Figure 1 or they are shown separately so as to distinguish the elements in detail.
  • the outer comb 1 forming the tunnel 4 can also move relative to the inner comb 2 which can remain fixed. The important thing is to generate the movement of one element relative to the other to pinch the hair when the locks are introduced between the two combs.
  • the device can be in the open position as shown in Figure 6 or in the closed position, as shown in Figure 4.
  • the open position the arc formed by the teeth of the outer comb 1 is in the same plane as the bevelled teeth 5 of the inner comb 2.
  • the resistance offered by the spring 6 to move the inner comb 2 relative to the outer comb 1 can also be adjusted via a screw 7 shown in Figures 1 and 2.
  • the user can choose to introduce his hair into the comb in the open position and then release the mobile comb so that it, pushed by an adjustable spring 6 pinch the lock of hair.
  • Another way of smoothing the hair is to use the device in the closed position, that is to say where the bevelled teeth 5 are offset with respect to the plane formed by the arches 3, and to introduce the locks of hair, which themselves adjust the position of the movable comb with only resistance the force provided by the spring 6 of the adjusting screw 7.
  • This force is adjustable (see Figure 2).
  • the user, pulling his locks of hair through the teeth of the device itself causes the adjustment of the teeth relative to each other depending on the tensile force exerted on said locks.
