Description détaillée de l'inventionDetailed description of the invention

Le dispositif de la présente invention peut être appliqué à la fois sur une brosse soufflante ou sur un sèche-cheveux. Il peut également se suffire à lui-même.The device of the present invention can be applied to both a blower brush or a hair dryer. He can also be self-sufficient.

Le dispositif de l'invention comporte deux éléments essentiels, il s'agit de deux peignes imbriqués l'un dans l'autre que nous appellerons « peigne intérieur 2 » et « peigne extérieur 1 ». Le peigne extérieur 1 se présente sous la forme d'une multitude d'arcs 3 alignés avec une partie creuse formée par les creux des arcs successifs et formant un tunnel 4 dans lequel se trouve le peigne intérieur, les deux étant agencés de manière mobile l'un par rapport à l'autre. Le mot arc est à interpréter au sens architectural selon la définition du Larousse.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.

Le peigne intérieur 2 a une forme semblable au creux formé par les arcs 3 du peigne extérieur 1. L'un étant mobile par rapport à l'autre. Les deux éléments essentiels, c'est à dire le peigne intérieur 2 et le peigne extérieur 1 de ce dispositif défriseur sont visibles dans la figure 1 ou ils sont représentés de manière séparée afin de pouvoir distinguer les éléments en détail.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.

Le peigne extérieur 1 formant le tunnel 4 peut également se déplacer par rapport au peigne intérieur 2 qui peut rester fixe. L'important étant de générer le mouvement d'un élément par rapport à l'autre permettant de pincer les cheveux lorsque les mèches sont introduites entre les deux peignes.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.

En fonction du mode d'exécution choisi au repos, le dispositif peut se trouver en position ouverte telle que représentée à la figure 6 ou encore en position fermée, telle que représentée à la figure 4. En position ouverte, l'arc formé par les dents du peigne extérieur 1 est dans le même plan que les dents biseautées 5 du peigne intérieur 2. La résistance offerte par le ressort 6 pour faire bouger le peigne intérieur 2 par rapport au peigne extérieur 1 peut également être réglé par l'intermédiaire d'une vis 7 représentée dans les figures 1 et 2.Depending on the embodiment chosen at rest, the device can be in the open position as shown in Figure 6 or in the closed position, as shown in Figure 4. In 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.

L'utilisateur peut choisir d'introduire ses cheveux dans le peigne en position ouverte et de relâcher ensuite le peigne mobile afin que celui-ci, poussé par un ressort réglable 6 pince la mèche de cheveux.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.

Un autre moyen de lisser les cheveux consiste à utiliser le dispositif en position fermée, c'est à dire où les dents biseautées 5 sont décalées par rapport au plan formé par les arcs 3, et d'introduire les mèches de cheveux, qui elles mêmes ajustent la position du peigne mobile avec comme seule résistance l'effort fourni par le ressort 6 de la vis de réglage 7. Cette force est réglable (voir figure 2). Autrement dit, l'utilisateur, en tirant ses mèches de cheveux à travers les dents du dispositif provoque lui-même l'ajustement des dents les unes par rapport aux autres en fonction de la force de traction exercée sur lesdites mèches.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). In other words, 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.
