Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hair styling device having a substantially cylindrically shaped heating part, which has a heatable molded part with a shaped edge for heating and forming the hair and a method for hair styling with such a device.
  • Hair styling devices such as curlers, straighteners or curlers, are intended for modeling hair, especially for re-shaping hair strands.
  • a strand of hair to be formed must first be brought by heating in an area of easy formability, which is between 120 ° C and 175 ° C.
  • the heated to a predetermined temperature hair strand is pulled in the molding process on a rounded edge of the hair styling device to cause a permanent and targeted bend in the respective strand of hair. This leads to a temporary deformation and curvature in the hair, which leads to a curling.
  • the degree of deformation depends on various factors.
  • a curved cooling surface has the same curvature direction as the shaped edge and on the length of which the hair tress can be cooled down to a temperature which is not critical for the deformation.
  • a hair styling device describes, for example, the DE 197 48 067 A1 ,
  • a strand of hair to be formed is clamped by the device on the hairline and pulled through the hair strand during the molding process to the hair tip.
  • the entire typically rod-shaped hair styling device is rotated about its longitudinal axis, so that the clamped strand of hair both under a designated radius of curvature over the shape edge as well as close fitting over the form edge subsequent cooling surface is pulled.
  • That from the DE 197 48 067 A1 known hair styling device is also constructed asymmetrically.
  • the device In order to achieve an optimal shaping effect, the device must always be rotated in a predetermined direction after clamping the strand of hair to be formed. If the user incorrectly turns the device in the other direction, the strand of hair to be formed will not even be guided over the cooling surface, which can severely impair the shaping result if a hair wave or hair curls were intended.
  • US Pat. No. 6,627,852 B1 discloses a hair styling device having two heatable hair treatment tips, which can be brought into different relative positions to each other by a rotational movement.
  • the U.S. Patent 4,591,695 discloses a curling iron in which the rod member is rotatably mounted in the housing.
  • the present invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide an improved hair styling device and method for hair styling available, which allows easier and easier to use handling and with which consistently good molding results can be achieved.
  • the hair styling device is preferably designed as a hand-held device with a grip part and with a substantially rod-shaped heating part or a corresponding heating section.
  • the heating part has at least one heatable molding for heating the hair, wherein at least one, but preferably both side boundaries of the molding are formed as a rounded shape edge.
  • To form a guide for the hair at least one guide means is provided, which is mounted adjustable relative to the molded part.
  • guiding means and molding can be adjusted or moved against each other so that the strand of hair experiences a positive guidance within the hair styling device.
  • the guide means guiding an inserted strand of hair By predetermined by the guide means guiding an inserted strand of hair, this can be exactly over a predetermined angle or a predetermined and optimized course following over the forming edge of the molding. In this way, a consistent and optimized forming result can be achieved, which can be achieved independently of a rotation of the hair styling device around the inserted hair strand around.
  • leading edge and the shape edge are still running parallel to one another, they are offset relative to one another such that the strand of hair is forcibly guided through the hair styling device following a predetermined curved course.
  • the positive guidance of the hair in the guide means is achieved even with non-parallel training of leading edge and shape edge.
  • the leading edge of the guide means serves either as an inlet or as an outlet for the hair strand and forms together with the guide means a positive guide for a lockable in the device strand of hair.
  • the at least one guide means and the heatable molded part have matched geometries which form a curved gap extending in a closed position of the hair styling device.
  • Both the leading edge and the shape edge are in a typical application of the device substantially perpendicular to the course of the inserted into the device strand of hair.
  • the guide means and the molded part are pivotally mounted against each other.
  • the mutual pivoting or rotation of the molding and guide means is preferably carried out after inserting or pinching a strand of hair in the hair styling device.
  • the guide means and the molding can be pivoted or rotated again in the opposite direction against each other, so as to bring the device back to an initial state in which another strand of hair are subjected to the molding process in the same manner can.
  • the at least one guide means and the at least one molded part are rotatably mounted relative to one another about the cylinder axis of the heating element.
  • the guide means rotatable about a fixed molding be.
  • the molded part can also be rotatably mounted in relation to a fixed guide means.
  • both the guide means and the molded part are rotatably mounted relative to a fixed cylinder axis of the heating element.
  • both the shape edge and the leading edge in approximately immediately adjacent to each other to come to rest.
  • the device After inserting the strand of hair and closing the device can then be rotated at least partially by the relative rotation of the molding and guide the inserted strand of hair within the device so that the strand of hair is optimally pulled when pulling through both the shape edge and on the cooling surface ,
  • the at least one molded part has an inner heating surface and an outwardly curved cooling surface which is surrounded by the guide means at least partially.
  • the heating surface of the molded part can be configured differently, for example flat, curved or curved.
  • the curved cooling surface of the molding partially enclosing guide means is cup-shaped.
  • the guide means is formed in the region of the heating surface of the molded part as a half-shell, so that in the closed state of the device, a curvature radius of the cooling surface formed corresponding guide gap formed between the molding and guide means, through which the hair strand can be pulled through in the application.
  • the shaping edge preferably comes to lie in a region which is completely enclosed or covered by the guide means, so that the hair strand can not be guided past the shaping edge in a straight line, but always following the predetermined radius of curvature over the shaping edge and the adjoining cooling surface or cooling zone is pulled.
  • heating surfaces are arranged opposite one another in a closed position of the device to form a gap for the hair.
  • This embodiment enables a cylindrically symmetrical configuration of the heating part, in which two preferably semi-cylindrical molded parts can be folded up.
  • a half-shell-like guide means is arranged for each of the mutually pivotable mold parts, which is arranged along the curvature of the outwardly curved cooling surface of the molded part so to speak displaceable in the circumferential direction of the molding or with respect to the cylinder axis of the heating element rotatably mounted on the respective mold part.
  • the at least one part of the guide means enclosed by molding part with its free end protrudes beyond an axial boundary of the at least one guide means. This serves for better handling, in particular when the guide means and the molding are to be manually rotated against each other after closing the device and when the hair strand is inserted.
  • the free, over the axial boundary of the guide means protruding end of the molding on its outer side has at least one handle shell.
  • the free end of the heating part as a handle part is not cylindrical, but preferably beak-like with a concave inwardly extending curvature.
  • the grip end which is tapered in relation to the cylinder jacket surface of the heating element allows reliable and simple relative rotation of the entire heating element relative to the guide means, which is advantageous in particular in view of the high temperature of the heating surfaces during operation of the device.
  • the at least partially half-shell-like and the two mold parts are partially enclosing Guide means pincers mounted against each other pivotable.
