Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine elektrisch betriebene Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung zum Formen und/oder Pflegen von Haaren, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The present invention relates to an electrically operated hair styling / care device for shaping and / or maintaining hair, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Bekannte Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtungen, wie bspw. ein Glätteisen, weisen zumindest einen beheizbaren Arm auf, der insbesondere unterschiedlich temperiert werden kann. Wird eine Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung jedoch im eingeschalteten Zustand abgelegt, so verbleibt die Heizeinrichtung weiter in Betrieb und kostet dadurch einerseits unnötig Energie und stellt andererseits ein gewisses Gefahrenpotential dar. Zwar sind bereits automatische Abschaltfunktionen bekannt, bei welchen bspw. nach 60 Minuten ohne eine Einstellungsänderung die Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung abgeschaltet wird. In diesen 60 Minuten wird jedoch weiter Energie verbraucht, was insbesondere unter ökologischen Gesichtspunkten zunehmend unvertretbar ist.Known hair styling / care facilities, such as, for example, a flat iron, have at least one heatable arm, which in particular can be heated to different temperatures. However, if a hair styling / care device is placed in the switched-on state, the heating device continues to operate unnecessarily and, on the one hand, unnecessarily represents energy and, on the other hand, poses a certain potential for danger. Automatic shut-off functions are already known, in which, for example, after 60 minutes without a change of setting the hair styling / care device is switched off. In these 60 minutes, however, more energy is consumed, which is increasingly unacceptable especially from an ecological point of view.

Die vorliegende Erfindung beschäftigt sich daher mit dem Problem, für eine gattungsgemäße elektrisch betriebene Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung eine verbesserte oder zumindest eine alternative Ausführungsform anzugeben, die insbesondere ökologische Gesichtspunkte berücksichtigt.The present invention therefore deals with the problem of providing for a generic electrically operated hair styling / care device an improved or at least one alternative embodiment, which takes into account in particular ecological aspects.

Dieses Problem wird erfindungsgemäß durch den Gegenstand des unabhängigen Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche.This problem is solved according to the invention by the subject matter of independent claim 1. Advantageous embodiments are the subject of the dependent claims.

Die vorliegende Erfindung beruht auf dem allgemeinen Gedanken, eine Abschaltautomatik bei einer Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung, bspw. bei einem Haarglätter, mit zumindest einem Bewegungssensor zu koppeln und dadurch ein automatisches Abschalten der elektrisch betriebenen Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung zu bewirken, sofern diese eine vordefinierte Zeitspanne lang nicht bewegt wird. Hierzu weist die erfindungsgemäße Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung oben genannten, zumindest einen Bewegungssensor auf, der mit einer Steuereinrichtung kommunizierend verbunden ist, wobei diese Steuereinrichtung wiederum derart ausgebildet ist, dass sie die Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung abschaltet oder zumindest eine Heizleistung eines Heizelements derselben reduziert, sofern sie nicht mehr bewegt wird. Neben dem kompletten Abschalten der Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung, was unter ökologischen Gesichtspunkten am sinnvollsten erscheint, kann die Steuereinrichtung auch lediglich die Heizleistung eines Heizelements reduzieren, sofern die Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung zumindest eine gewisse Zeit lang nicht bewegt wird. Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung ist es somit möglich, sowohl ein Gefahrenpotential, ausgehend von einer unbemerkt in Funktion stehenden Heizelement, zu vermindern, als auch einen Stromverbrauch einer derartigen Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung zu reduzieren, da diese automatisch nach einer vordefinierten Zeitspanne abgeschaltet oder bezüglich einer elektrischen Leistungsaufnahme zumindest reduziert wird, sofern sie abgelegt und nicht mehr bewegt wird.The present invention is based on the general idea to couple an automatic shutdown in a Haarformungs- / care device, eg. In a hair straightener, with at least one motion sensor and thereby to effect an automatic shutdown of the electrically operated Haarformungs- / care device, if this a predefined period of time long is not moved. For this purpose, the hair styling / care device according to the invention mentioned above, at least one motion sensor, which is communicatively connected to a control device, wherein this control device is in turn designed such that they Hair styling / care device turns off or at least reduced a heating power of a heating element thereof, if it is no longer moving. In addition to the complete shutdown of the hair styling / care device, which appears most sensible from an ecological point of view, the control device can also only reduce the heating power of a heating element, if the hair styling / care device is not moved at least for a certain time. With the hair styling / care device according to the invention, it is thus possible to reduce both a potential danger, starting from a heating element unnoticed in function, as well as to reduce power consumption of such a Haarformungs- / care device, as this automatically switched off after a predefined period of time or with respect to an electrical power consumption is at least reduced if it is stored and not moved.

Bei einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung, ist die Steuereinrichtung derart ausgebildet, dass sie das Heizelement unmittelbar auf eine voreingestellte Temperatur aufheizt, sofern der Bewegungssensor eine Bewegung der Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung detektiert. Selbstverständlich kann dabei die erfindungsgemäße Steuereinrichtung auch derart ausgebildet sein, dass sie die Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung bzw. ein Heizelement derselben zunächst nach einer vordefinierten Zeitspanne ohne Bewegung abschaltet bzw. zumindest eine Heizleistung des Heizelements reduziert und innerhalb einer weiteren vordefinierten Zeitspanne wieder aktiviert, sofern die Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung bewegt wird. Verstreicht auch die zweite vordefinierte Zeitspanne ohne Bewegung, so wird die Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung von der Steuereinrichtung vorzugsweise komplett abgeschaltet und kann dann auch nicht durch ein sich anschließendes Bewegen wieder aktiviert werden, sondern muss erneut eingeschaltet werden.In an advantageous development of the solution according to the invention, the control device is designed such that it heats the heating element directly to a preset temperature, provided that the movement sensor detects a movement of the hair shaping / care device. Of course, the control device according to the invention can also be designed such that it first shuts off the hair styling / care device or a heating element after a predefined period without movement or at least reduces a heating power of the heating element and reactivated within a further predefined period of time, provided that Hair styling / care device is moved. If the second predefined period of time also passes without movement, then the hair styling / care device is preferably completely switched off by the control device and can then not be reactivated by a subsequent movement, but must be switched on again.

Bei einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung erfolgt eine Reduzierung der Heizleistung durch die Steuereinrichtung kontinuierlich oder stufenweise. Wird somit die erfindungsgemäße Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung eine vordefinierte Zeitspanne, bspw. fünf Minuten, nicht bewegt, so beginnt die Steuereinrichtung die Heizleistung kontinuierlich bzw. stufenweise zu reduzieren. Die Zeitspanne sollte dabei auf jeden Fall so groß gewählt werden, dass ein übliches Beiseitelegen der Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung während des Frisierens nicht zu einem Abschalten bzw. zu einer Reduzierung der Heizleistung des Heizelements führt, sondern die Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung lediglich dann abgeschaltet bzw. bezüglich ihrer Heizleistung reduziert wird, sofern tatsächlich davon auszugehen ist, dass die Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung nach Beendigung des Frisiervorgangs zur Seite gelegt wurde.In a further advantageous embodiment of the solution according to the invention, the heating power is reduced by the control device continuously or stepwise. Thus, if the hair styling / care device according to the invention does not move a predefined period of time, for example five minutes, the control device begins to reduce the heating power continuously or stepwise. The period of time should be chosen so large in any case, that a usual Beiseitelegen the hair styling / care device during hairdressing not too switching off or to a reduction of the heating power of the heating element leads, but the hair styling / care device is only then switched off or reduced in terms of their heating power, if it can be assumed that the hair styling / care device has been set aside after completion of the hairdressing process ,

Weitere wichtige Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen, aus den Zeichnungen und aus der zugehörigen Figurenbeschreibung anhand der Zeichnungen.Other important features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims, from the drawings and from the associated figure description with reference to the drawings.

Es versteht sich, dass die vorstehend genannten und die nachstehend noch zu erläuternden Merkmale nicht nur in der jeweils angegebenen Kombination, sondern auch in anderen Kombinationen oder in Alleinstellung verwendbar sind, ohne den Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung zu verlassen.It is understood that the features mentioned above and those yet to be explained below can be used not only in the particular combination given, but also in other combinations or in isolation, without departing from the scope of the present invention.

Entsprechend der Fig. 1, weist eine erfindungsgemäße, elektrisch betriebene Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1, welche hier in der Art eines Haarglätters (Glätteisens) ausgebildet ist, zumindest einen Bewegungssensor 2 sowie eine kommunizierend damit verbundene Steuereinrichtung 3 auf. Der Bewegungssensor 2 kann dabei wie in Fig. 1 gezeigt, im Bereich eines Griffs 4 angeordnet sein, wobei selbstverständlich auch eine anderweitige Anordnung denkbar ist. Erfindungsgemäß ist nun die Steuereinrichtung 3 derart ausgebildet, dass sie die Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1 abschaltet oder zumindest eine Heizleistung eines Heizelements 6 reduziert, sofern die Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1 eine vordefinierte Zeitspanne lang nicht bewegt wird, wobei eine Bewegung der Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1 vom Bewegungssensor 2 erfasst wird. Hierdurch soll insbesondere aus Sicherheitsgründen erreicht werden, dass die Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1 automatisch abgeschaltet wird, sofern sie längere Zeit abgelegt und unbenutzt ist. Zugleich kann durch die erfindungsgemäße Kombination der Steuereinrichtungen 3 mit dem zumindest einen Bewegungssensor 2 eine ökologische Betriebsweise der erfindungsgemäßen Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1 erreicht werden, da ein unnötiger und insbesondere ein ungewollter Energieverbrauch zumindest reduziert, vorzugsweise sogar gänzlich verhindert werden kann.According to the Fig. 1 , has an inventive, electrically operated Haarformungs- / care device 1, which is here designed in the form of a hair straightener (smoothing iron), at least one motion sensor 2 and a communicatively connected thereto control device 3. The motion sensor 2 can be as in Fig. 1 shown, be arranged in the region of a handle 4, which of course also a different arrangement is conceivable. According to the invention, the control device 3 is designed such that it shuts off the hair styling / care device 1 or at least reduces a heating power of a heating element 6, if the hair styling / care device 1 is not moved for a predefined period of time, with a Movement of the hair styling / care device 1 is detected by the motion sensor 2. This should be achieved in particular for safety reasons, that the hair styling / care device 1 is automatically switched off, provided it is stored for a long time and unused. At the same time can be achieved by the inventive combination of the control devices 3 with the at least one motion sensor 2, an ecological operation of the hair styling / care device 1 according to the invention, as an unnecessary and in particular an unwanted energy consumption at least reduced, preferably even can be completely prevented.

Die Steuereinrichtung 3 kann dabei die Heizleistung des Heizelements 6 kontinuierlich oder stufenweise reduzieren, wobei die Reduzierung der Heizleistung nach abgelaufener, vordefinierter Zeitspanne auch unmittelbar oder zeitverzögert erfolgen kann. Denkbar ist insbesondere auch, dass die Steuereinrichtung 3 das Heizelement 6 unmittelbar auf eine voreingestellte Temperatur wieder aufheizt, sofern der Bewegungssensor 2 eine Bewegung der Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1 detektiert. Ein derartiges wieder Aktivieren des Heizelements 6 kann bspw. nach dem automatischen Abschalten bzw. nach dem automatischen Reduzieren der Heizleistung innerhalb einer zweiten, vordefinierten Zeitspanne erfolgen. Nach Ablauf der zweiten vordefinierten Zeitspanne führt auch eine Bewegung der Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1 nicht mehr zu deren Reaktivierung, vielmehr muss diese wieder manuell, bspw. an einem Schalter 5, eingeschaltet werden.The control device 3 can reduce the heating power of the heating element 6 continuously or stepwise, wherein the reduction of the heating power after expired, predefined period of time can also be done directly or with a time delay. It is also conceivable, in particular, that the control device 3 reheats the heating element 6 directly to a preset temperature, provided that the motion sensor 2 detects a movement of the hair styling / care device 1. Such a reactivation of the heating element 6 can, for example, be carried out after the automatic switch-off or after the automatic reduction of the heating power within a second, predefined period of time. After the second predefined period of time has passed, a movement of the hair styling / care device 1 no longer leads to its reactivation, but rather has to be switched on again manually, for example at a switch 5.

Die erfindungsgemäße Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1 kann bspw. als so genannter Straightener, insbesondere als Haarglätte, aber auch als beheizbarer Lockenstab ausgebildet sein, wobei die vordefinierte Zeitspanne aus ökologischen Gesichtspunkten möglichst kurz gewählt werden sollte, bspw. kann sie ca. fünf Minuten betragen.The hair styling / care device 1 according to the invention can be designed, for example, as a straightener, in particular as a hair straightener, but also as a heatable curling iron, whereby the predefined time span should be chosen as short as possible from an ecological point of view, for example. It can be approximately five minutes.

Gemäß der Fig. 2 ist ein Blockschaltbild dargestellt, welches die Funktionsweise der erfindungsgemäßen Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1 näher erläutern soll.According to the Fig. 2 a block diagram is shown, which is intended to explain the operation of the hair styling / care device 1 according to the invention in more detail.

Zunächst befindet sich die Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1 in Betrieb und wird anschließend, ohne dieselbe am Schalter 5 auszuschalten, auf die Seite gelegt. Ab dem Ablegen überwacht der Bewegungssensor 2 eine Bewegung der Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1 und übermittelt nach einer vordefinierten Zeitspanne, bspw. nach fünf Minuten, ein entsprechendes Signal an die Steuereinrichtung 3, woraufhin diese entweder gemäß der Alternative A die Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1 abschaltet oder aber gemäß der Alternative B eine Leistungsabgabe an zumindest ein Heizelement 6 zumindest reduziert. Die Reduzierung der Leistungsabgabe kann dabei unmittelbar oder zeitverzögert sowie kontinuierlich oder stufenweise erfolgen.First, the Haarformungs- / care device 1 is in operation and is then, without turning off the same switch 5, set aside. From the time of depositing, the motion sensor 2 monitors a movement of the hair styling / care device 1 and transmits it after a predefined period of time, for example after five Minutes, a corresponding signal to the control device 3, whereupon this either according to the alternative A shuts off the Haarformungs- / care device 1 or according to the alternative B, a power output to at least one heating element 6 at least reduced. The reduction of the power output can take place directly or with a time delay and continuously or stepwise.

Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1 kann auch eine Gefahrenquelle durch unbeabsichtigt betriebene elektrische Geräte reduziert werden, da sich die erfindungsgemäße Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1 nach einer vordefinierten Zeitspanne automatisch abschaltet oder aber zumindest bezüglich ihrer Heizleistung reduziert. Auch unter ökologischen Gesichtspunkten ist dies wünschenswert, da ein unnötiger Energieverbrauch mit der erfindungsgemäßen Haarformungs-/Pflegeeinrichtung 1 zumindest reduziert werden kann.With the hair styling / care device 1 according to the invention, a danger source can also be reduced by unintentionally operated electrical appliances, since the hair styling / care device 1 according to the invention automatically shuts off after a predefined period of time or at least reduces its heating power. This is also desirable from an ecological point of view since unnecessary energy consumption with the hair styling / care device 1 according to the invention can at least be reduced.
