  • the present invention relates to a tweezers of the type comprising pliers for tearing unwanted hair, unwanted, the human body, and more particularly relates to such an apparatus equipped with means for reducing the pain caused by tearing of the bristles. fur.
  • This type of apparatus generally comprises blade or disk-shaped grippers arranged on a rotating or oscillating roller, arranged in the upper part of a housing forming a gripping means, the roller being driven in motion by an electric motor arranged in a the same case.
  • the forceps are caused to close and open periodically so as to grasp the hair close to the skin, tear them off, and then evacuate them, during the movement of the roller.
  • Hair removal by pulling hair is a very effective method against their regrowth, but it is sometimes quite painful. This pain is due to the repeated pulling on the hair, or to the lesions or irritations of the hair follicles caused by the pulling of the hairs.
  • the device must be loaded with liquid constantly and, therefore, it requires regular maintenance, or even disassembly of some components.
  • this device is of a large size, mainly due to the presence of a fluid reservoir inside its housing.
  • apparatus comprising a fan driven by an electric motor to create a flow of air between an air inlet opening on one side of its housing and an air outlet nozzle directed towards the skin and located on the opposite side of the housing.
  • the air flow produced must pass through the housing to reach the skin. This causes significant pressure losses to the airflow that must change abruptly direction (90 °) after the exit of the turbine to go to the skin.
  • This device finds its limits in the design and construction of its aeraulic circuit imposing the use of an electric motor that must rotate at a very high speed so that the air flow coming out of the device has an effect felt as analgesic on the skin.
  • the high speed operation of the fan turbine also produces an acute operating noise, which can be perceived as unpleasant during hair removal.
  • the object of the present invention is to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks and to provide a tweezers device with tearing pliers comprising painter means capable of producing a flow of air for insensitizing the area of skin to be epilated effectively during l hair removal operation, while being silent in operation.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a depilatory device comprising painter means capable of producing an air flow with improved airflow efficiency, which are simple in structure and reliable, while being economical to achieve.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a depilatory apparatus of compact construction, of small dimensions, which can easily be held by hand, while incorporating effective and reliable pain relief means over time.
  • a depilatory apparatus comprising a housing intended to be held by hand comprising means for hair removal by pulling off the hairs on the skin and drive means depilation means, and a fan driven by an electric motor to create a flow of air between an air inlet opening of the housing and an outlet opening of air from the housing, the air flow exiting the fan pressure chamber being channeled to the skin by an air duct extended by a flat nozzle, because the outlet channel of the fan pressure chamber, the air duct and the flat nozzle are substantially on the same straight line.
  • the outlet channel, the air duct and the nozzle are coaxial by being arranged with their respective axes on the same straight line.
  • the alignment of the axes of the outlet channel of the fan pressure chamber, the air duct and the outlet nozzle, they are arranged substantially in the same line in the same plane.
  • the apparatus of the invention thus makes it possible to produce an air flow whose flow rate and speed have been increased for a better analgesic effect on the skin, while reducing the level of the noise generated by the ventilator.
  • the outlet channel, the air duct and the flat nozzle comprise at least one longitudinal face arranged substantially in the same plane.
  • the outlet channel, the air duct and the flat nozzle have a side face in the same plane and their upper and lower faces in two superposed parallel planes.
  • the air inlet opening, at least one of the walls of the air duct and the flat air outlet nozzle belong to one of the shells of the housing.
  • the axis of rotation of the fan is substantially transverse to the longitudinal axis of the housing.
  • the rotational drive of a fan wheel about an axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the housing makes it possible to record the diameter and the height of the vanes of the fan wheel in the jig in the transverse direction of the housing.
  • a wheel occupying the space granted by the width (for the diameter) and by the Thickness (for the height of the blades) makes it possible, while turning, to blow a large air flow and thus to improve the efficiency of the fan, without significantly increasing the dimensions of the housing of the apparatus.
  • said fan is a centrifugal fan squirrel cage.
  • a centrifugal fan called squirrel cage or direct acting is a centrifugal fan with blades facing forward in the direction of rotation. This type of fan, operating at low pressure, provides a high flow rate and total pressure, for a low power consumption.
  • the fan comprises a volute surrounding a wheel blades, the outlet of the volute being extended by a longitudinal air duct.
  • Such a volute is an envelope that surrounds the fan wheel, it has a shape of snail or logarithmic spiral and allows to gradually increase, from its spout, the flow of the centrifugal fan and thus improve the efficiency of the fan. this one.
  • the air inlet in the volute of a centrifugal fan is made according to the axis of rotation of the wheel and the output is according to the tangent to the wheel, perpendicular to the axis of the wheel, which is can then advantageously orient in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the housing.
  • the outgoing air flow can then be directed substantially without changing direction and, therefore, without undergoing pressure loss until epilation means which are generally arranged in the upper part of the housing.
  • the epilation means comprise at least one tearing pliers carried by an epilation roller rotating about its longitudinal axis, the flat nozzle being arranged parallel to the longitudinal side of the hair removal roller.

  • the flat nozzle is adjacent to the hair removal roller being arranged in front of the latter in the direction of movement of the device on the skin.
  • the air outlet nozzle is adjacent to the roller, it then allows to blow a flat airflow closer to the skin area to be treated.
  • This arrangement at the front of the roll has proved very effective against pain, because the analgesic effect of the airflow immediately before tearing insensitizes the skin and makes it less painful pulling.
  • the apparatus comprises a first electric motor for driving the hair removal roller and a second electric motor for driving the fan.
  • actuation by a motor separate from the fan wheel allows more freedom in its arrangement inside the housing, as well as in the choice of its dimensions.

  • the motors being located one behind the other to optimally occupy the space in the longitudinal direction of an elongated housing housing that forms a gripping means.
  • the first drive motor being located closer to the roller that it drives, this limits the number of gears or gears used to transmit the movement to the roller, to further reduce the operating noise.
  • the arrangement of the second motor at the rear of the housing also allows good ergonomics in operation, because the air inlet opening in the housing can not be obstructed by the hand of the user who usually holds the housing its upper part adjoining the roller in order to guide it accurately on the skin.
