Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hair straightener.
  • Hair straighteners are used, for example, when curly or curly hair is to be smoothed.
  • Conventional hair straighteners are usually designed in the manner of a pair of pliers, wherein the pliers jaws are designed as movable arms with integrated heatable screed plates.
  • the heat or heat emitted by the screed plates has a smoothing effect on the hair to be smoothed.
  • silicone strips are often incorporated, by means of which the pulling force acting on the hair to be smoothed when pulling the hair can be increased by acting as jaws smoothing plates, whereby the smoothing effect on the hair to be smoothed improves becomes.
  • DE102011078562A describes a straightener with silicone strips.
  • the invention is based on the general idea of at least partially forming the silicone strip for increasing the tensile force in an electrically conductive manner and connecting it to an electrical ground connection of the hair straightener via a suitable grounding device. In this way, the electrostatic charge of the hair during the smoothing at least reduced and ideally even completely avoided.
  • the electrical charge carriers generated during the electrostatic charging of the hair can be removed from the silicone strip.
  • Such removal of unwanted charge carriers requires the electrically conductive formation of the silicone strip.
  • the hair straightener according to the invention makes it possible to avoid unwanted electrical charging effects and a concomitant accumulation of electrical charge carriers in the region of the silicone strips acting as traction boosters in a technically simple and cost-effective manner.
  • This makes the provision of technically complex devices for eliminating the electrostatic charge of the hair, for example, the use of an ion generator in the hair straightener superfluous.
  • the use of carbon-based plastics with sufficient temperature resistance for use in the hair straightener is also conceivable.
  • the silicone strip may comprise an electrically conductive additive.
  • an additive may preferably be a metal, in particular copper or silver, or a carbon, in particular graphite graphene, or carbon nanotubes (CNT). Both additives are commercially available in large quantities, which reduces the production costs of the hair straightener according to the invention.
  • it may also be thought to modify the molecular structure of the base material, ie silicon or silicone, in such a way that the desired conductivity is effected.
  • the provision of an electrically conductive additive or the modification of the molecular structure of the base material is mutatis mutandis even when using o.g. Carbon-based plastics possible.
  • the additive can be applied in layers to the silicone strip and / or the additive can be embedded in the matrix of the silicone strip.
  • a conventional non-conductive silicone strip may be provided with the desired electrical conductivity by suitable coating with the additive.
  • the additive it is, however, on the other hand to provide the additive not only in the form of a surface coating, but to embed this in the entire matrix of the originally non-conductive silicone strip.
  • the grounding device may comprise in a further embodiment, an electrical line having a first and second end portion. In the region of the first end section, this electrical line can be transformed into a fastening element made of an electrically conductive material, which can be fastened or fixed to the silicone strip in an electrically conductive manner.
  • the second end portion of the electrical lead may be electrically connectable or connected to the electrical ground terminal of the hair straightener.
  • the fastening element may comprise a plate element, preferably made of a metal, which is pressed against the silicone strip by means of a pressing element, in particular a spring element, that is to say prestressed. This allows a mechanically stable and thus reliable electrical connection of the grounding device to the fastening element.
  • the fastening element can be designed as a pin-like element, in particular in the manner of a nail or a needle or a blade.
  • the pressing element can be removed in a simple manner from the fastening element, for example when the silicone strip is to be replaced.
  • the fastening element may also be formed as a nonwoven element. This allows a particularly simple mounting of the grounding device on the silicone strip.
  • the electrical grounding device also optionally electrically connected to the electrical ground terminal or with an electrical charge carrier reservoir of the Hair straightener be connected or connected. Since the hairs to be smoothed generally always have an electrically positive charge during smoothing, such a charge carrier reservoir can have negative charge carriers which then neutralize with the positive charge carriers formed on the silicone strip. This may be particularly advantageous if the electrical ground terminal can not be connected to an electrical grounding potential, for example via an electrical outlet or the like, for example, because the hair straightener is to be used mobile. In this case, the charge carrier reservoir, particularly with a reservoir of negative charge carriers, can to some extent replace the electrical ground by electrically connecting the grounding device to an electrical ground potential.
  • the hair straightener can comprise an adjusting device, by means of which a user of the hair straightener can adjust an amount of charge carriers provided in the charge carrier reservoir and transfer them to the silicone strip. In this way, the degree of neutralization of positive charge carriers occurring in hair straightening can be flexibly adjusted with negative charge carriers taken out of the carrier reservoir.
  • FIG. 1 an inventive hair straightener is shown schematically in a perspective view and designated 1.
  • the hair straightener 1 has two mutually movable arms 2, on each of which a smoothing plate 3 is arranged, of which at least one is heatable.
  • the two arms 2 can be pivotally connected to each other by means of a conventional hinge 4.
  • On the respective arm 2 at least one silicone strip 5 is arranged, which is preferably aligned parallel to the smoothing plate 3.
  • other arrangement geometries are conceivable.
  • the use of strips of carbon-based plastics with sufficient temperature resistance for use in the hair straightener is also conceivable.
  • two silicone strips 5 with respect to an axial direction A of the smoothing plate 3 are each arranged laterally offset from the smoothing plate 3 and running along the axial direction A.
  • a different number and a different arrangement geometry of the silicone strips 5 can be realized.
  • the silicone strips 5 are also shown only in one of the two arms 2.
  • the other arm 2 may have one or more such silicone strips 5.
  • the silicone strip 5 is formed at least partially electrically conductive and connected via a grounding device 6 with an electrical ground terminal 7 of the hair straightener 1.
  • This electrical connection is in the FIG. 1 for the sake of clarity, only one of the silicone strips 5 is shown.
  • the electrical ground terminal 7 is in the FIG. 1 only roughly sketched; this may be, for example, a conventional electrical connection element in the manner of an electrical socket or similar. act.
  • the electrostatic charge of the hair to be smoothed causes a correspondingly complementary electrostatic charge of the silicone strips 5.
  • electrical charge carriers which are usually positive charge carriers can be by means of the grounding device 6, since these electrically with a electrical ground terminal 7 is connected to dissipate in a simple manner, which in accordance with the unwanted charging of the hair can be largely or even completely avoided.
  • electrical earth 8 is meant an electrically conductive connection of the Haarglätters 1 with the electrical ground potential of the ground.
  • the silicone strip 5 may have an electrically conductive additive.
  • the additive may be applied in layers to the silicone strip 5 and / or be embedded in the matrix of the silicone strip 5.
  • the additive may be a metal such as copper or silver, but also a carbon, in particular graphite, graphene or carbon nanotubes (CNT).
  • the base material ie silicon or silicone
  • the provision of an electrically conductive additive or the modification of the molecular structure of the base material is mutatis mutandis also possible with the use of carbon-based plastics instead of silicone.
  • the grounding device 6 comprises an electrical line 10 having a first and second end portion 11, 12.
  • the electrical line 10 is in the region of the first end portion 11 in a in the FIG. 1 for the sake of clarity not shown, but in the detailed view of FIGS. 2 to 5 explained fastener 13 pass from an electrically conductive material.
  • the fastening element 13 is attached to the silicone strip 5 electrically conductive.
  • the second end portion 12 of the electric wire 10 is electrically connected to the electric ground terminal 7.
  • the fastening element 13 may comprise a plate element 14, for example in the manner of a simple plate, which is pressed against silicone strips 5 by means of a pressing element 15.
  • the pressing member 15 may, as in the FIG. 2 indicated schematically as a spring element, for example in the manner of a simple spring with resilient properties, be educated.
  • the pressing element 15 designed as a spring element can be supported on the respective movable arm 2 of the hair straightener 1.
  • the fastener 13 but also as in the FIG. 3 be shown formed as a pin-like element.
  • a pin-like element may be a nail, a needle or a blade 16.
  • any number of such pin-like elements can be provided in principle, which then form the fastener 13 in their entirety.
  • a pin-shaped contact pressure element 15 may be supported on the movable arm 2 or be attached thereto and partially protrude in the assembled state in the silicone strip 5.
