Description

Diffusor eines Haartrockners  Diffuser of a hair dryer
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Diffusor eines Haartrockners gemäß dem The present invention relates to a diffuser of a hair dryer according to the
Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1. Die Erfindung betrifft außerdem einen mit einem derartigen Diffusor ausgestatteten Haartrockner. The preamble of claim 1. The invention also relates to a hair dryer equipped with such a diffuser.
Diffusoren für Haartrockner sind hinlänglich bekannt und dienen üblicherweise zu einem gleichmäßigen Trocknen von insbesondere gelockten bzw. gewellten Haaren. Generell gibt es dabei zwei Prinzipien von Diffusoren, nämlich einerseits einen mit langen Fingern, die gegebenenfalls seitlich gelocht sind und andererseits eine Schüssel, die nach oben gerichtet von unten an das zu trocknende Haar herangeführt wird. Beide Prinzipien beruhen dabei auf einem Luftstrom, der den Diffusor in im Wesentlichen gleicher Richtung verlässt, wie er von einem Haartrockner in den Diffusor eingeblasen wird. Die aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Diffusoren weisen dabei jedoch den Nachteil auf, dass zu wenig der trockenen Luft durch die Haare geleitet oder letztere gar von der trocknenden Luft aus dem Diffusor herausgeblasen werden und dadurch nur ein unbefriedigendes Trocknen erreicht werden kann. Hair dryer diffusers are well known and usually serve to uniformly dry curly or wavy hair in particular. In general, there are two principles of diffusers, namely on the one hand with long fingers, which are optionally perforated laterally and on the other hand, a bowl, which is directed upward from below to the hair to be dried. Both principles are based on a flow of air leaving the diffuser in substantially the same direction as it is blown into the diffuser by a hair dryer. However, the known from the prior art diffusers have the disadvantage that too little of the dry air passed through the hair or the latter are even blown out of the drying air from the diffuser and thus only an unsatisfactory drying can be achieved.
Die vorliegende Erfindung beschäftigt sich mit dem Problem, für einen Diffusor der gattungsgemäßen Art eine verbesserte oder zumindest eine alternative Ausführungsform anzugeben, die sich insbesondere durch eine verbesserte Trocknung und weitere, mit bisherigen Diffusoren nicht erzielbare Effekte auszeichnet. The present invention addresses the problem of providing a diffuser of the generic type an improved or at least one alternative embodiment, which is characterized in particular by an improved drying and other, not achievable with previous diffusers effects.
Dieses Problem wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Gegenstände der unabhängigen Ansprüche gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche. This problem is solved according to the invention by the subject matters of the independent claims. Advantageous embodiments are the subject of the dependent claims.
Die vorliegende Erfindung beruht auf dem allgemeinen Gedanken, einen in den Diffusor mittels eines Haartrockners eingeleiteten Luftstrom derart mittels des Diffusors umzulenken, dass die zu trocknenden Haare auf einen Boden des Diffusors The present invention is based on the general idea to redirect an introduced into the diffuser by means of a hair dryer air flow by means of the diffuser that the hair to be dried on a floor of the diffuser
gedrückt/gezogen werden, wobei der Luftstrom durch dort angeordnete, bodenseitige Luftauslassöffnungen entweicht. Der erfindungsgemäße Diffusor besitzt somit be pressed / pulled, wherein the air flow escapes through there arranged, bottom-side air outlet openings. The diffuser according to the invention thus has
bodenseitige, dem Haartrockner zugewandte Luftauslassöffnungen und ist derart ausgebildet, dass beim Betrieb des Haartrockners eine in dem Diffusor zirkulierende, das heißt kreisende, Luftströmung erzeugt wird, die die Haare in den Diffusor einsaugt und die den Diffusor im Wesentlichen, das heißt üblicherweise überwiegend, über die bottom side, the hairdryer facing air outlet openings and is such formed during operation of the hair dryer circulating in the diffuser, that is circular, air flow is generated, which sucks the hair into the diffuser and the diffuser essentially, that is usually predominantly, on the
bodenseitigen Luftauslassöffnungen wieder verlässt. Mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Diffusor kann somit erreicht werden, dass der vom Haartrockner erzeugte trockene Luftstrom effizient zum Trocknen der Haare genutzt werden kann, da die Haare nicht wie bisher bei bekannten Diffusoren von letzterem weggeblasen werden, sondern vielmehr in diesen eingesaugt und vom dort zirkulierenden trocknen Luftstrom getrocknet werden. Die Trocknungsfähigkeit eines mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Diffusor ausgestatteten leaves the bottom-side air outlet openings again. With the diffuser according to the invention can thus be achieved that the dry air stream generated by the hair dryer can be efficiently used for drying the hair, since the hair is not blown away as before in known diffusers of the latter, but rather sucked into this and circulating from the dry air stream be dried. The drying ability of a equipped with the diffuser according to the invention
Haartrockners ist dabei gängigen Diffusoren weit überlegen. Hair dryer is far superior to common diffusers.
Bei einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung, weist der Diffusor eine luftdurchströmte Außenschale und einen zentralen, ebenfalls luftdurchströmten Pils auf, wobei an der Außenschale und/oder am Pils Luftdüsen angeordnet sind, die zum Boden des Diffusors gerichtet sind und die die im Diffusor zirkulierende Luftströmung erzeugen. Die Benutzerin des Diffusors kann somit durch ein einfaches Einlegen In an advantageous development of the solution according to the invention, the diffuser has an air-flowed outer shell and a central, likewise air-flowed Pils, wherein air nozzles are arranged on the outer shell and / or on the Pils, which are directed to the bottom of the diffuser and the circulating in the diffuser air flow produce. The user of the diffuser can thus by simply insert
Eigenlocken stärker herausarbeiten und wegen des im Diffusor zirkulierenden Luftstroms in feuchte Haare auch Locken einarbeiten, in dem Haare in gewirbelter Form getrocknet werden. Durch die rückwärts gewandten Luftdüsen an der Außenschale und/oder am Pils wird auch ein Ansaugeffekt des Diffusors erzeugt, der die zu trocknenden Haare in den Zwischenraum zwischen der Außenschale und dem zentralen Pilz einzieht und dort trocknet. Die Luftdüsen können darüber hinaus derart gerichtet sein, dass die von diesen erzeugte Luftströmung nicht ausschließlich eine einfache Kreisströmung ist, sondern zusätzlich spiralförmig verdrillt wird. Eine derartig verdrillte Luftströmung unterstützt die Lockenbildung zusätzlich.  Strengthen your own curls stronger and because of the circulating in the diffuser air flow in wet hair curls also incorporate, are dried in the hair in a vortexed form. By the backward-facing air nozzles on the outer shell and / or on the Pils also a suction effect of the diffuser is generated, which feeds the hair to be dried in the space between the outer shell and the central fungus and dried there. The air nozzles can also be directed in such a way that the air flow generated by them is not exclusively a simple circular flow, but is additionally spirally twisted. Such a twisted air flow additionally supports curling.
Zweckmäßig sind die Luftauslassöffnungen am Boden der Auslassschale, das heißt am Boden des Diffusors, mit einem luftdurchlässigen Gitter belegt. Dieses bewirkt, dass zwar Luft durch die vergitterten Luftauslassöffnungen ausströmen kann, mitgerissene Haare jedoch zurückgefallen werden und nicht mittels des Luftstroms unkontrolliert verteilt werden. Die ausgefallenen Haare sammeln sich vielmehr am Boden und insbesondere im Bereich der vergitterten Luftauslassöffnungen und können bei entsprechenden turnusmäßigen Reinigungsarbeiten am Diffusor einfach aus diesem entnommen werden. Das Vergittern der bodenseitigen Luftauslassöffnungen erhöht somit den Hygienestandard. Suitably, the air outlet at the bottom of the outlet shell, that is occupied at the bottom of the diffuser, with an air-permeable grid. This causes air to flow through the barred air outlet openings, but entrained hair can be dropped back and not distributed uncontrollably by the air flow. Rather, the failed hairs accumulate on the floor and in particular in the area of the barred air outlet openings and can easily be removed from the diffuser during regular cleaning work on the diffuser. The lattice of the bottom-side air outlet thus increases the standard of hygiene.

An der Außenschale 6 und/oder am Pils 7 sind dabei Luftdüsen 8 angeordnet, die zum Boden des Diffusors 1 gerichtet sind und die die im Diffusor 1 zirkulierende Luftströmung 4 bewirken. Im Wesentlichen sind dabei die Luftauslassöffnungen 8 zumindest am Pils 7 rückwärts gewandt, das heißt einem ursprünglichen, in den Diffusor 1 von Haartrockner 2 eingeblasenen Luftstrom 4' (vgl. Fig. 2) entgegengerichtet. Leaves substantially on the bottom air outlet openings 3 again. The diffuser 1 has an air-flowed outer shell 6 and a central, also air-flowed Pils 7. On the outer shell 6 and / or on the Pils 7 air nozzles 8 are arranged, which are directed to the bottom of the diffuser 1 and cause the circulating in the diffuser 1 air flow 4. Essentially, there are the Air outlet openings 8, at least at the Pils 7 turned backwards, that is, an original, in the diffuser 1 blown by 2 blower air stream 4 '(see Fig. 2) directed in opposite directions.
Um ein Herausblasen von in den Diffusor 1 eingesaugten und dort getrockneten Haaren 5 zu vermeiden, sind die bodenseitigen Luftauslassöffnungen 3 vorzugsweise mit einem luftdurchlässigen Gitter 9 belegt, die ausgefallene Haare im Diffusor 1 zurückhalten.
