Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hair styling or care device comprising a blower arranged in a housing for conveying an air flow, an opening from which the conveyed air flow exits, at least one for emitting electrons in the direction of the axis of the air outlet opening and in an axial arrangement arranged in the air outlet opening ionization electrode having ionization and a releasably connectable to the air outlet opening essay.
  • Such hair styling or care appliances are, for example, hair dryers, air curlers or the like, and thus devices with which hair can be shaped and / or cared for.
  • Such hair styling or care appliances include a fan for conveying an airflow routed through the appliance.
  • a device also has a heating device for heating the conveyed air flow.
  • the conveyed air flow exits an air outlet opening from the housing of the device.
  • an ionization device comprises a high voltage generator and one or more ionization electrodes connected to the high voltage generator.
  • the ionization device During operation of the ionization device, electrons are emitted from the electrode tip (s) and the ambient air adjacent thereto is ionized, with the effect that the hair to be treated is exposed to an ion current.
  • the one or more ionization electrodes are arranged so that the ions are supplied to the hair to be treated. This supports the hair styling or hair care process.
  • ionization electrodes are arranged in the air outlet opening or in the immediate vicinity thereof.
  • Such a device is for example in FR 2 766 338 A1 described.
  • an essay such as an ondulier nozzle, a volumizer or the like in order to achieve a particular care or molding result can. If such an essay to the air outlet opening connected to such, having an ionization device device, typically by plugging the same, the operation of the ionization device is ineffective, since the generated ion current is neutralized before reaching the hair to be nurtured.
  • a hair treatment can therefore be done with a device designed in this way with its attached to the air outlet opening essay only without the sometimes desired ion current.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of developing an aforementioned hair styling or care device in such a way that effectively ions can be supplied to the hair to be treated, both with attached to the device essay and without patch essay.
  • an aforementioned, generic hair styling or care device in which the attachment has at least one ionization electrode, which is also arranged correspondingly axially with respect to their air outlet opening and can then be understood in the axial direction as an extension of the ionization, the located in the air outlet opening, and has a contact for connecting its at least one ionization electrode to the ionization of the hair styling or care device, wherein for transmitting high voltage to the attachment side contact when the attachment is connected to the air outlet opening, this contact either with small distance to the free end of the ionization electrode, which is located in the air outlet opening, or this physically contacted.
  • the attachment associated with this device has an ionizing electrode.
  • the hair styling or care appliance comprises an ionizing electrode arranged to emit electrons in the direction of the axis of the air outlet opening and in an axial arrangement in the air outlet opening.
  • To connect its at least one ionization electrode to the ionization device is a contact made of an electrically conductive material.
  • a contact made of an electrically conductive material For transmitting high voltage to this tower side Contact this is either in physical contact with the, which is located in the air outlet opening, electrode, when the attachment is connected to the air outlet opening of the device, or - which is preferred - at a small distance from the electrode, which in the air Air outlet is located.
  • the electrode of the attachment is contacted via the, which is located in the air outlet opening electrode.
  • a proper function of the attachment-side ionization electrode is thus ensured even if a physical contact of the electrode, which is located in the air outlet opening, not present. Therefore, in this contacting the otherwise necessary for contacting electrical connections pressing force of the contacts need not be present. Rather, it is even preferable to arrange the attachment-side electrical contact at a small distance to the electrode, which is located in the air outlet opening, so that it is not damaged during a placement of the attachment or during a removal. Particularly useful is the use of a carbon fiber bundle electrode as an electrode, which is located in the air outlet opening, since it can deliver a high-density electron flow and thereby a voltage transfer to the contact and the attachment-side electrode is supported.
  • the ionization electrode which is located in the air outlet opening, is located in an axial arrangement within the air outlet opening of the device. Accordingly, axially with respect to its air outlet opening, the attachment-side electrode is also arranged, which can then be understood in the axial direction as an extension of the ionization electrode, which is located in the air outlet opening.
  • An otherwise not shown hair dryer 1 has a fan for conveying an air flow flowing through the housing 2.
  • the air flow exits through an air outlet opening 3.
  • the electrode unit 4 of an otherwise not shown ionization device is arranged.
  • the electrode unit 4 is held within the air outlet opening 3 by a plurality of radial spokes 5.
  • the electrode unit 4 comprises a sleeve-like housing 6, in which a carbon fiber bundle electrode 7 is arranged as the ionization electrode.
  • the electrical contacting of the carbon fiber bundle electrode 7 is not shown.
  • the free, electron-donating ends 8 of the individual carbon fibers of the carbon fiber bundle electrode 7 are still within the housing 2 of the hair dryer. 1
  • an ondulier nozzle attachment 9 Associated with the hair dryer 1 is an ondulier nozzle attachment 9.
  • the ondulier nozzle attachment 9 To connect the ondulier nozzle attachment 9 to the hair dryer 1, the latter has an annular, cylindrical coupling section 10 which can be inserted into the air outlet opening 3 of the hair dryer 1. A peripheral paragraph 10.1 limited as a stop the coupling portion 10 of the attachment 9.
  • the hair dryer 1 To connect the Ondulierdüsenetzsatzes 9 to the hair dryer 1, the hair dryer 1 has within its air outlet opening 3 via a complementary to the outer surface of the coupling portion 10 coupling surface 11.
  • Centric and with axial alignment disposed within the Ondulierdüsenetzsatzes 9 an electrode unit 12.
  • the electrode unit 12 comprises a housing part 13, in which a metal sleeve 14 is arranged.
  • the metal sleeve 14 is at its pointing to the coupling portion 10 end around the pointing in this direction completion of the housing part 13 to form an electrical contact ring 15 crimped outwardly.
  • an ionization electrode 16 is connected at its opposite end of the coupling ring 15. This is also executed in the illustrated embodiment as a carbon fiber bundle electrode.
  • the free end of the carbon fibers of the carbon fiber bundle electrode 16 is located at a small distance on the inside from the outer end of the ondulier nozzle attachment 9.
  • the hairdryer 1 can be operated without Ondulierdüsenetzsatz 9.
  • the ionization device in the operation of which 7 electrons are emitted via the carbon fiber bundle electrode, an ion current is generated and supplied to the hair to be treated.
  • the Ondulierdüsenetzsatz 9 connected to the air outlet opening 3 of the hair dryer 1, as in FIG. 2
  • the contact ring 15 is located at a small distance to the free ends 8 of the carbon fiber bundle electrode 7. If the ionizer is turned on to supply electrons to the hair to be treated, the carbon fiber bundle electrode 7 serves for Producing a high voltage contact with the contact ring 15 of the attachment side carbon fiber bundle electrode 16.
  • the emitted from the carbon fiber bundle electrode 7 electrons are collected by the lying directly in front of the free ends of the carbon fibers contact ring 15 and forwarded to the attached to the metal sleeve 14 on-side carbon fiber electrode 16, which in turn to emit 16 electrons for generating an ion current to be supplied to the hair to be treated to the free ends of the carbon fibers of their carbon fiber bundle electrode.
  • the arrangement of the contact ring 15 to the free ends of the carbon fibers of the carbon fiber bundle electrode 7 makes it clear that assembly and disassembly of the Ondulierdüsenetzsatzes 9 for lack of contact of the contact ring 15 to the free ends of the carbon fibers of the carbon fiber bundle electrode 7 or other parts of the Ondulierdüsenetzsatzes 9 they are not damaged.
  • the properties of the device-side ionization electrode 7 are usefully used to forward the emitted electrons to an ionization electrode 16 arranged in the attachment 9.
  • a contacting of the attachment-side electrode can also take place when one or more arranged needle electrodes, which are located in the air outlet opening, are provided.
