Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for hairstyling or shaping the hair, more particularly of the hair straightening type, more particularly an apparatus comprising a device designed to exert pressure on the lock of hair to be treated.
  • Most hair shaping devices such as hair straighteners, embossing irons, comprise two pivoting jaws each supporting at one end a treatment surface of which at least one is heated, the other being intended to bring the hair in contact with the first, including passing from an opening position of the jaws allowing the insertion of the hair to a closed position for their contact with the heating part.
  • the other end of the jaws form two half handles acting as a gripping area and to move from the open position to the closing position. The passage is done manually by pressing the two half handles articulated device towards each other to bring the heating part in contact with the hair.
  • a first type of apparatus where the pivot point of the jaws is arranged between the half-handles and the treatment surfaces.
  • This arrangement has the disadvantage of requiring a large angular stroke of the half handles to obtain a sufficient opening of the treatment surfaces necessary for the introduction of locks of hair.
  • a second type of apparatus where the pivot point of the jaws is arranged at the end of these jaws, opposite the treatment surfaces.
  • This arrangement has improved ergonomics compared to the first type of device, in fact, the half handles have a lower angular stroke to obtain sufficient opening of the treatment surfaces.
  • this arrangement has the disadvantage of requiring a significant pressure of the user on the half handles to obtain a sufficient effort of the treatment surfaces on the hair, knowing that the intensity and regularity of this effort is important in the result of the treatment obtained.
  • the object of the present invention is to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks and to provide a hair styling device capable of achieving good shaping of the hair while being easy to use, without requiring any particular effort in operation.
  • Another object of the invention is a hairdressing appliance which is of simplified structure, compact and can be industrialized for a low cost.
  • the treatment surfaces are maintained under pressure to allow a continuous force to be applied to the hair without the intervention of the user.
  • the introduction of the hair between the treatment surfaces is performed by the user by exerting pressure on the half handles.
  • the shaping of the hair is carried out only by moving the apparatus, the return means of the half handles putting pressure treatment surfaces, which ensures a continuous effort on the hair.
  • the user may also temporarily limit the stress on the hair while applying a slight pressure on the half handles.
  • This arrangement makes it possible to obtain a simplified construction of the apparatus for reversing the movements of the half-handles and the treatment surfaces: the closure of the half-handles by pressure of the user causes opening of the treatment surfaces and opening of the half handles under the effect of the return means causes the closing of the treatment surfaces. This ensures that the treatment surfaces are pressurized without the intervention of the user.
  • the return means of the half handles comprise a device for adjusting the pressurization of the treatment surfaces.
  • This arrangement allows the user to adapt the pressure of the treatment surfaces on the hair depending on the amount, the nature, the type of hair disposed between the surfaces.
  • the return means of the half handles comprise a compression spring.
  • This arrangement makes it possible to achieve very simply the return means of the half handles.
  • This type of spring makes it possible to obtain a curve of variation of the force exerted on the treatment surfaces as a function of the opening angle of the half-handles of linear shape.
  • the return means of the half handles comprise a spiral spring working in torsion.
  • This type of spring makes it possible to obtain a curve of variation of the force exerted on the treatment surfaces as a function of the opening angle of polynomial shape of degree greater than 2.
  • the two hair treatment surfaces consist of two smooth plates to smooth the hair.
  • This arrangement provides a shaping device that smooths the hair.
  • the figure 1 illustrates a device 1 which is a straightener according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the apparatus being in the closed position.
  • the apparatus 1 comprises two jaws 2, 3 pivotally mounted about a hinge 4.
  • the hinge is provided at the rear with a tip adapted to receive a rotary connector for a main electrical power supply cable (no represented in the figures).
  • Each jaw 2, 3 comprises in front of a housing 7, 8 adapted to receive a smoothing plate 10, 11.
  • the housings 7, 8 are advantageously made of a plastic material by an injection technique.
  • Each jaw comprises a rear portion, that is to say between the front portion and the hinge, forming a gripping zone formed by two half-handles 5, 6, an upper and a lower, clamp type.
  • Each smoothing plate 10, 11 contains a heating element (not shown in the figures) which may be an electrical heating element of the resistive type, CTP, infrared, etc.. powered by a switch receiving power from the main cable of the device.
  • the heating element is placed in thermal contact with the smoothing plate 10, 11 to fully transfer its calories.
  • the smoothing plate 10, 11 is made of a metal material which is a good heat conductor of the aluminum type or its alloys, copper or alloys, or steel.
  • Each jaw 2, 3 has a crossing zone 9 between the ends of the half handles 5, 6 and housings 7, 8, where the jaws 2, 3 have a thinned cross-section to maintain a substantially constant width along the length of the jaw. device 1.
  • a compression spring 12 is arranged between the two half-handles 5, 6.
  • a device for adjusting the pressurization of the treatment surfaces is constituted by a screw 17 by adjusting the length of the spring 12.
  • the spring 12 comprises a first end 13 ( fig.2 ) fixed in a dwelling 20 formed in the lower half handle 6 and a second end 14 slidably mounted in a housing 21 formed in the upper half handle 5, bearing on a first end 19 of the adjusting screw 17.
  • the screw 17 is mounted in a threaded opening of the upper half handle 5, in the extension of the housing 21.
  • the screw 17 has a second end formed by a knurled knob 18 operable in rotation by the user.
  • the user In operation, after warming up the apparatus 1, the user exerts a pressure on the half-handles 5, 6, compressing the spring 12 to move the plates 10, 11 of smoothing to the maximum as visible at the figure 3 .
  • the apparatus 1 is then in the open position.
  • the user inserts a lock of hair between the smoothing plates 10, 11, preferably by placing the device 1 as close as possible to the scalp. Then it completely releases the pressure on the half handles 5, 6, which has the effect, under the pressure of the spring 12, to pinch the lock of hair between the plates 10, 11 of smoothing.
  • the user then moves the device 1 along the lock of hair, from the root to the tip of the hair and this without having to exert a pressure force on the half handles 5, 6 during the smoothing.
  • the user can also limit punctually during treatment the effort of the plates 10, 11 of smoothing on the hair by applying a slight pressure on the half handles 5, 6, end wick for example.
  • the user can at any time change the pressure of the smoothing plates 10, 11 on the hair by turning the knurled knob 18.
  • the return spring of the half handles is a torsion spring comprising a spiral body disposed in the joint and two arms, each bearing within a half handle.
  • the jaws may include in the crossing zone one or more axes of rotation for changing the angular position of the treatment surfaces in a longitudinal direction of the device.
  • the jaws may comprise in the crossing zone each a connecting rod connecting the half-handle to the treatment surface and an axis of rotation at each end of the rod for adjusting the opening of the treatment surfaces.
