Description

La présente invention concerne un appareil de coiffure permettant la mise en forme des cheveux. L'invention concerne plus particulièrement un appareil de coiffure pour le lissage des cheveux qui comprend deux mâchoires montées sur une charnière, chaque mâchoire comprenant une plaque chauffante l'une en regard de l'autre destinées à former une zone de traitement lorsque les deux mâchoires sont en position fermée.The present invention relates to a hairdressing apparatus for shaping the hair. The invention more particularly relates to a hair styling apparatus for hair smoothing which comprises two jaws mounted on a hinge, each jaw comprising a heating plate facing one another to form a treatment zone when the two jaws are in the closed position.

Dans le but d'améliorer le résultat du lissage, il est apparu dans ce domaine des lisseurs intégrant des accessoires à proximité des plaques chauffantes destinés à prendre contact avec une mèche de cheveux. Comme par exemple le document CH702861 qui divulgue un lisseur comprenant sur chaque coté de la plaque de lissage supérieure une rangée de brosses, agencées en amont et en aval du lissage. Ceci permet d'étendre la mèche de cheveux prise entre les deux plaques pour un résultat de lissage différent d'un lissage conventionnel réalisé sans l'intervention d'un tel accessoire.In order to improve the smoothing result, it has appeared in this field of hair straighteners incorporating accessories near the heating plates intended to make contact with a lock of hair. As for example the document CH702861 which discloses a straightener comprising on each side of the upper smoothing plate a row of brushes, arranged upstream and downstream of the smoothing. This allows to extend the lock of hair between the two plates for a smoothing result different from a conventional smoothing performed without the intervention of such an accessory.

En effet, l'utilisation des brosses avant et après la plaque chauffante permet de peigner les cheveux, de les rendre plus brillants. Ceci permet également de répartir la mèche au mieux sur les plaques de lissage afin de pouvoir traiter les cheveux à une basse température, par exemple 170°C. Ainsi le volume est conservé, les cheveux sont moins abîmés et sont plus naturels et vaporeux.Indeed, the use of brushes before and after the hot plate can comb the hair, make them brighter. This also makes it possible to distribute the wick at best on the smoothing plates in order to treat the hair at a low temperature, for example 170 ° C. Thus the volume is preserved, the hair is less damaged and are more natural and vaporous.

Cependant, dans le document CH702861 , les rangées de brosses étant fixées par rapport au boîtier de l'appareil, aucun réglage n'est possible pour adapter l'appareil au type de lissage souhaité.However, in the document CH702861 since the rows of brushes are fixed relative to the housing of the apparatus, no adjustment is possible to adapt the apparatus to the desired type of smoothing.

On connait un autre document EP2245953 qui divulgue un lisseur comprenant une barrette de traction au milieu de la plaque de lissage destinée à maintenir l'extrémité d'une mèche de cheveux entre les mâchoires, la barrette de traction étant réglable en hauteur et pouvant rentrer complètement dans le boîtier de l'appareil. Toutefois, cet appareil entraine une mise en tension conséquente du cheveu, entre l'appareil et la racine du cheveu, qui est désagréablement ressentie par l'utilisateur. Un enseignement similaire est divulgué dans le document JP2004255207 .We know another document EP2245953 which discloses a straightener comprising a traction bar in the middle of the smoothing plate for holding the end of a lock of hair between the jaws, the pull bar being adjustable in height and being able to fit completely into the housing of the apparatus. However, this device leads a substantial tensioning of the hair, between the device and the root of the hair, which is unpleasantly felt by the user. Similar teaching is disclosed in the document JP2004255207 .

Le but de la présente invention est de remédier au moins en partie à ces inconvénients et de proposer un appareil de mise en forme des cheveux avec une fonction de lissage des cheveux améliorée à une basse température, sans la sensation de mise en tension du cheveu.The object of the present invention is to remedy at least in part these disadvantages and to provide a hair shaping apparatus with an improved hair smoothing function at a low temperature, without the sensation of tensioning the hair.

Un autre but de l'invention est d'apporter un effet lustrant du cheveu pour améliorer la qualité perçue du lissage.Another object of the invention is to provide a lustrous effect of the hair to improve the perceived quality of the smoothing.

Un autre but de l'invention est de proposer un lissage équivalent dans les deux sens.Another object of the invention is to provide equivalent smoothing in both directions.

Encore un autre but de l'invention est de proposer deux types de lissage en un seul appareil.Yet another object of the invention is to provide two types of smoothing in a single device.

Ces buts sont atteints avec un appareil portatif de mise en forme des cheveux tel que divulgué dans la revendication 1. On entend par « touffes de soie » des touffes de poils naturels ou synthétiques.These objects are achieved with a portable hair shaping apparatus as disclosed in claim 1. The term "silk tufts" means clumps of natural or synthetic bristles.

Lorsque les moyens de traction sont maintenus en position sortie (PS), ils dépassent de la plaque de lissage d'une hauteur maximale et sont en contact avec les cheveux pris entre les deux plaques de lissage. Les cheveux sont suffisamment brossés avec une force de traction importante ;
Lorsque les moyens de traction sont maintenus en position rétractée, ils sont escamotés dans le boîtier inférieur. Les moyens de traction ne sont plus en contact avec les cheveux, ainsi aucune force de traction n'est appliquée. Il est envisageable que le réglage des moyens de traction entre les deux positions soit progressif et qu'un nombre de crans soit défini afin que les moyens de traction puissent être maintenus en plusieurs positions différentes.When the traction means are held in the extended position (PS), they protrude from the smoothing plate by a maximum height and are in contact with the hair caught between the two smoothing plates. The hair is sufficiently brushed with a great pulling force;
When the traction means are held in the retracted position, they are retracted into the lower housing. The traction means are no longer in contact with the hair, so no traction force is applied. It is conceivable that the adjustment of the traction means between the two positions is progressive and a number of notches is defined so that the traction means can be maintained in several different positions.

Selon l'invention, les moyens de réglage sont intégrés à l'appareil de façon permanente. Ils sont attachés aux boîtiers de l'appareil quelle que soit la position des moyens de traction. Le fait d'agencer des rangées de brosses à la fois en amont et en aval de la plaque de lissage permet de proposer un lissage adapté à l'utilisation avec la main gauche ou la main droite. Avec les moyens de réglage intégrés, l'appareil est capable de réaliser au moins deux types de lissage dont un lissage conventionnel et un lissage dit « brushing ».According to the invention, the adjustment means are permanently integrated into the apparatus. They are attached to the housings of the device regardless of the position of the traction means. The fact of arranging rows of brushes both upstream and downstream of the smoothing plate makes it possible to propose a smoothing adapted to use with the left hand or the right hand. With the integrated adjustment means, the device is capable of performing at least two types of smoothing, including conventional smoothing and "brushing" smoothing.

Les rangées de touffes de soie sont liées en mouvement pendant le réglage, ce qui permet de traiter les cheveux en amont et en aval de la plaque de lissage de la même façon.The rows of silk tufts are linked in motion during adjustment, which makes it possible to treat the hair upstream and downstream of the smoothing plate in the same way.

De préférence, seule la mâchoire inférieure comprend lesdits moyens de traction et lesdits moyens de réglage. Ceci permet de réduire le coût de fabrication ainsi que le volume du produit.Preferably, only the lower jaw comprises said traction means and said adjustment means. This reduces the manufacturing cost as well as the volume of the product.

Selon un premier et un deuxième mode de réalisation, les moyens de réglage comprennent des moyens de support liés en translation avec lesdits moyens de traction, lesdits moyens de support étant montés coulissants sur ledit boitier inférieur dans une direction (Y) orthogonale à la plaque de lissage inférieure.According to a first and a second embodiment, the adjustment means comprise support means connected in translation with said traction means, said support means being slidably mounted on said lower housing in a direction (Y) orthogonal to the support plate. lower smoothing.

Le premier mode de réalisation consiste en un appareil dans lequel les moyens de réglage comprennent un bouton de réglage lié en mouvement avec lesdits moyens de support, le bouton étant coulissant par rapport au boîtier inférieur.The first embodiment consists of an apparatus in which the adjusting means comprise an adjustment button linked in movement with said support means, the button being slidable with respect to the lower housing.

Le deuxième mode de réalisation consiste en un appareil dans lequel les moyens de réglage comprennent une molette de réglage rotatif autour d'un axe (Y'), la molette étant en liaison hélicoïdale avec lesdits moyens de support.The second embodiment consists of an apparatus in which the adjustment means comprise a rotary control wheel around an axis (Y '), the wheel being in helical connection with said support means.

Afin d'apporter plus de fonctionnalité à l'appareil dans son premier et deuxième mode de réalisation, il comprend un capuchon sur le boîtier inférieur, ledit capuchon comprenant des fentes destinées à accueillir lesdits moyens de traction.In order to bring more functionality to the apparatus in its first and second embodiment, it comprises a cap on the lower housing, said cap comprising slots for accommodating said traction means.

De surcroît, ledit capuchon est monté détachable sur le boîtier inférieur par un système de fixation. Le capuchon permet de maintenir les brosses dans leur logement sans nécessiter un montage serré ou un clippage ce qui facilite l'assemblage du produit. De plus, un capuchon démontable permet de pouvoir accéder facilement aux brosses pour les changer, nettoyer ou réparer sans que l'appareil soit entièrement démonté.In addition, said cap is detachably mounted on the lower housing by a fastening system. The cap keeps the brushes in their housing without requiring a tight assembly or clipping which facilitates the assembly of the product. In addition, a removable cap allows easy access to the brushes to change, clean or repair without the device is completely disassembled.

Selon un troisième mode de réalisation, les moyens de réglage comprennent des moyens de support liés en rotation avec lesdits moyens de traction, lesdits moyens de support étant montés rotatifs sur ledit boitier inférieur autour d'un axe de rotation (X1, X2) qui est parallèle à l'axe de symétrie du boîtier inférieur.According to a third embodiment, the adjustment means comprise support means rotatably connected to said traction means, said support means being rotatably mounted on said lower housing about an axis of rotation (X1, X2) which is parallel to the axis of symmetry of the lower housing.

Avantageusement, les moyens de support comprennent une came pour chaque rangée de touffes de soie, ladite came étant liée en rotation avec lesdits moyens de support.Advantageously, the support means comprise a cam for each row of silk tufts, said cam being rotatably connected to said support means.

De surcroît, les moyens de réglage comprennent un actionneur monté coulissant sur le boîtier inférieur, ledit actionneur étant lié en translation avec des moyens de guidage destinés à entrainer ladite came en rotation autour de l'axe de rotation (X1, X2).In addition, the adjustment means comprise an actuator slidably mounted on the lower casing, said actuator being linked in translation with guiding means for driving said cam in rotation about the axis of rotation (X1, X2).

Avantageusement, lesdits moyens de traction sont montés détachables sur lesdits moyens de support. Ceci permet de nettoyer les brosses quand elles sont sales, ou bien de les remplacer quand elles sont abîmées. On peut également proposer différents types de brosse interchangeables afin de répondre aux besoins de chacun.Advantageously, said traction means are detachably mounted on said support means. This will clean the brushes when they are dirty, or replace them when they are damaged. We can also offer different types of interchangeable brush to meet the needs of each.

La mâchoire inférieure 3 comprend un boîtier inférieur 32 d'un axe (X) dans lequel est agencée une plaque de lissage inférieure 31 en regard de la plaque de lissage supérieure 21 destinée à former avec celle-ci une zone de traitement des cheveux lorsque l'appareil est en position fermée. Ces plaques de lissage 21, 31 peuvent être chauffées à une température choisie au moyen des éléments chauffants qui sont agencés dans les boîtiers 22, 32 de l'appareil. La température est réglable par un bouton de réglage 8 sur le boîtier de l'appareil. Les températures proposées peuvent être 140°C, 170°C, 230°C à titre d'exemples pour s'adapter aux différents types de lissage.The portable device represented in Figure 1 and designated generally by the reference 1 comprises an upper jaw 2 and a lower jaw 3 mounted on a hinge 9 at one end of the apparatus. The two jaws are movable between an open position where they form a a certain angle α less than 90 ° for passing at least one lock of hair, and a closed position where the lock of hair can be taken between the two jaws. The upper jaw 2 comprises an upper housing 22 having at the other end of the apparatus and on its given surface within the angle α, an upper smoothing plate 21. The lower jaw 3 comprises a lower housing 32 an axis (X) in which is arranged a lower smoothing plate 31 facing the top smoothing plate 21 for forming therewith a hair treatment area when the apparatus is in the closed position. These smoothing plates 21, 31 may be heated to a chosen temperature by means of the heating elements which are arranged in the housings 22, 32 of the apparatus. The temperature is adjustable by means of an adjustment knob 8 on the housing of the device. The temperatures proposed can be 140 ° C., 170 ° C., 230 ° C. by way of examples to adapt to the different types of smoothing.

La mâchoire inférieure 3 comprend en outre des moyens de traction des cheveux 4 présentés sous forme de deux rangées de touffes de soie 41, 41'. La première rangée de touffes de soie 41 est agencée en amont de la plaque de lissage inférieure 31 et la deuxième rangée de touffes de soie 41' est agencée en aval, les rangées de touffes de soie 41, 41' étant perpendiculaires à la plaque de lissage inférieure 31. Ici, on définit « l'amont » et « l'aval » par le sens de passage d'une mèche de cheveux prise dans l'appareil indiqué par la direction (Z). Ils peuvent être inversés lorsque l'utilisateur change de main ou retourne l'appareil de 180°. Le fait d'avoir les rangées de touffes de soie en amont et en aval de la plaque de lissage permet une utilisation dans les deux sens suivant l'habitude de chacun. Les touffes de soie sont faites d'un matériau souple du type brosse et peuvent avoir un arrangement géométrique cylindrique ou linéique. Selon une alternative préférée de l'invention, les touffes de soie 41, 41' sont des brosses. L'avantage d'utiliser les brosses avant et après la plaque de lissage est de pouvoir peigner les cheveux et répartir la mèche au mieux sur les plaques de lissage afin de pouvoir traiter les cheveux à une basse température, par exemple 170°C. Ainsi le volume est conservé, les cheveux sont moins abîmés et sont plus naturels et vaporeux.The lower jaw 3 further comprises hair pulling means 4 presented in the form of two rows of silk tufts 41, 41 '. The first row of silk tufts 41 is arranged upstream of the lower smoothing plate 31 and the second row of silk tufts 41 'is arranged downstream, the rows of silk tufts 41, 41' being perpendicular to the lower smoothing 31. Here, "upstream" and "downstream" are defined by the direction of passage of a lock of hair taken in the apparatus indicated by the direction (Z). They can be reversed when the user changes hands or returns the device 180 °. Having the rows of tufts of silk upstream and downstream of the smoothing plate allows for use in both directions as usual. The silk tufts are made of a flexible brush material and may have a cylindrical or linear geometric arrangement. According to a preferred alternative of the invention, the silk tufts 41, 41 'are brushes. The advantage of using the brushes before and after the smoothing plate is to comb the hair and spread the wick at best on the smoothing plates in order to treat the hair at a low temperature, for example 170 ° C. Thus the volume is preserved, the hair is less damaged and are more natural and vaporous.

Dans un premier mode de réalisation, l'appareil comprend dans le boîtier inférieur 32 des moyens de réglage 5 des brosses 41, 41' entre deux positions distinctes. Tel que visible aux Figures 2 et 3, les deux rangées de brosses 41, 41' sont chacune portées par une barrette 42, 42', laquelle est elle-même incrustée dans un porte-barrette 55, 55' faisant partie des moyens de réglage 5. Afin de faire déplacer les rangées de brosses 41, 41' dans une direction (Y) perpendiculaire à la plaque de lissage inférieure 31, tel qu'illustré à la figure 1, les moyens de réglage 5 comprennent d'abord un bouton 51 lié en translation avec un barreau actionneur 52. Selon l'exemple illustré, le bouton 51 est emboîté dans le barreau actionneur 52, l'ensemble étant en liaison glissière par rapport au boîtier inférieur 32. Pour cela, comme visible à la figure 3, le boîtier inférieur 32 présente sur le coté opposé à celui de la plaque de lissage 31 une ouverture 321 permettant l'emplacement du bouton 51 ainsi que l'engagement de son mouvement en glissière. Sur les extrémités distale et frontale du barreau actionneur 52 sont montées respectivement en pivot une bielle distale 53 et une bielle frontale 53' reliant le barreau actionneur 52 et les porte-barrettes 55, 55'. Les moyens de réglage 5 comprennent encore des moyens de support tels qu'une tige coulissante 54 distale et une tige coulissante frontale 54' qui relient les porte-barrettes 55, 55' par leurs extrémités du même coté, chaque tige coulissante 54, 54' étant montée en pivot par rapport à la bielle 53, 53' correspondante. En géométrie, les moyens de réglage 5 des brosses constituent un système de parallélogramme déformable destiné à transformer le coulissement du bouton 51 selon l'axe (X) en une translation verticale des brosses dans la direction (Y). Afin de mettre en oeuvre ce fonctionnement, le boîtier inférieur 32 présente sur la paroi intérieure une paire de lumières distales 322a, 322c et une paire de lumières frontales 322b, 322d selon la direction (Y), chacune permettant le passage et l'engagement de la tige coulissante correspondante. Ainsi le mouvement du bouton 51 en translation selon l'axe (X) est obligatoirement traduit en un mouvement des tiges coulissantes 54, 54' en translation selon la direction (Y). Les brosses 41, 41' sont donc également mobiles dans la direction (Y).In a first embodiment, the apparatus comprises in the lower housing 32 adjustment means 5 of the brushes 41, 41 'between two distinct positions. As visible to Figures 2 and 3 , the two rows of brushes 41, 41 'are each carried by a bar 42, 42', which is itself embedded in a bar holder 55, 55 'forming part of the adjustment means 5. In order to move the rows of brushes 41, 41 'in a direction (Y) perpendicular to the bottom smoothing plate 31, as shown in FIG. figure 1 , the adjustment means 5 comprise first a button 51 linked in translation with an actuator bar 52. According to the illustrated example, the button 51 is fitted into the actuator bar 52, the assembly being in sliding connection with respect to the housing 32. For this, as visible in the figure 3 , the lower housing 32 has on the opposite side to that of the smoothing plate 31 an opening 321 for the location of the button 51 and the engagement of its sliding movement. On the distal and front ends of the actuator bar 52 are respectively pivotally mounted a distal rod 53 and a front link 53 'connecting the actuator bar 52 and the bar holders 55, 55'. The adjustment means 5 also comprise support means such as a distal sliding rod 54 and a front sliding rod 54 'which connect the bar-holders 55, 55' by their ends on the same side, each sliding rod 54, 54 ' being pivotally mounted relative to the connecting rod 53, 53 'corresponding. In geometry, the adjustment means 5 of the brushes constitute a deformable parallelogram system intended to transform the sliding of the button 51 along the axis (X) into a vertical translation of the brushes in the direction (Y). In order to implement this operation, the lower housing 32 has on the inner wall a pair of distal lights 322a, 322c and a pair of front lights 322b, 322d in the direction (Y), each allowing the passage and engagement of the corresponding sliding rod. Thus the movement of the button 51 in translation along the axis (X) is necessarily translated into a movement of the sliding rods 54, 54 'in translation in the direction (Y). The brushes 41, 41 'are therefore also movable in the direction (Y).

Tel que visible aux Figures 4 et 5, les brosses 41, 41' sont en position sortie (PS) lorsque le bouton 51 se trouve tout à droite de l'ouverture 321. Les tiges coulissantes 54, 54' arrivent en haut des lumières 322a, 322b, 322c et 322d, ainsi les brosses sont sorties du boîtier 32 et sont saillantes par rapport à la plaque de lissage inférieure 31 ; Quand le bouton 51 se trouve tout à gauche de l'ouverture 321, les tiges coulissantes 54, 54' arrivent en bas des lumières 322a, 322b, 322c et 322d et les brosses sont en position rétractée (PR) par rapport à la plaque de lissage inférieure 31 vers l'intérieur du boîtier 32, elles ne sont plus en position pour tracter une mèche de cheveux.As visible to Figures 4 and 5 , the brushes 41, 41 'are in the extended position (PS) when the button 51 is located to the right of the opening 321. The sliding rods 54, 54' arrive at the top of the lights 322a, 322b, 322c and 322d, and the brushes are out of the housing 32 and protrude from the lower smoothing plate 31; When the button 51 is to the very left of the opening 321, the sliding rods 54, 54 'arrive at the bottom of the lights 322a, 322b, 322c and 322d and the brushes are in the retracted position (PR) relative to the plate. lower smoothing 31 towards the inside of the housing 32, they are no longer in position for towing a lock of hair.

Dans le but de proposer des brosses remplaçables, les barrettes 42, 42' sont montées sur les porte-barrettes 55, 55' par clippage et sont démontables pour être changées. Pour ceci, l'appareil est équipé d'un capuchon 6 qui vient se fixer au dessus des barrettes 42, 42' de façon démontable. Il comprend un crochet 62 destiné à se positionner dans une cavité 33 à proximité de la plaque de lissage inférieure 31. Le capuchon 6 présente des fentes 61, 61' accueillant les brosses et permettant le changement de celles-ci sans démonter le lisseur.In order to provide replaceable brushes, the bars 42, 42 'are mounted on the bars 55, 55' by clipping and are removable to be changed. For this, the device is equipped with a cap 6 which is fixed above the bars 42, 42 'removably. It comprises a hook 62 intended to be positioned in a cavity 33 near the bottom smoothing plate 31. The cap 6 has slots 61, 61 'accommodating the brushes and allowing the change thereof without disassembling the straightener.

Nous allons maintenant présenter un deuxième mode de réalisation qui est illustré aux Figures 6 et 7. La mâchoire supérieure 2 (non visible) reste identique à celle du premier mode ; La mâchoire inférieure 3 comprend une plaque de lissage inférieure 31 équipée de chaque coté longitudinal d'une rangée de brosses 41, 41'. Ces rangées de brosses 41, 41' sont portées par un moyen de support sous forme d'un plateau 153 faisant partie des moyens de réglage 15 qui est lui-même en liaison glissière par rapport au boîtier inférieur 32. Pour ceci, l'appareil comprend sur le boîtier inférieur 32 et en position décalée par rapport à la plaque de lissage inférieure 31 une molette 151 maniable par l'utilisateur en rotation autour d'un axe (Y') qui est perpendiculaire à la plaque de lissage inférieure 31. La molette 151 est fixée en translation avec le boîtier inférieur 32 et liée en rotation avec une vis sans fin 152 faisant partie de la même pièce que la molette 151. La vis sans fin 152 étant engagée dans un trou fileté 154 situé à l'extrémité du plateau 153, ce dernier est donc mis en liaison hélicoïdale avec la vis sans fin 152. De ce fait, la rotation de la molette 151 autour de l'axe (Y') est convertie en une translation des brosses 41, 41' selon l'axe (Y'). En cinétique, les deux butées de la molette 151 en rotation délimitent le mouvement des brosses 41, 41' entre une position sortie (PS) et une position rétractée (PR), celles-ci reprenant les mêmes définitions que celles du premier mode de réalisation.We will now present a second embodiment which is illustrated in Figures 6 and 7 . The upper jaw 2 (not visible) remains identical to that of the first mode; The lower jaw 3 comprises a lower leveling plate 31 equipped on each longitudinal side of a row of brushes 41, 41 '. These rows of brushes 41, 41 'are carried by a support means in the form of a plate 153 forming part of the adjustment means 15 which is itself in slide connection with respect to the lower casing 32. For this, the apparatus comprises on the lower housing 32 and in position offset from the lower smoothing plate 31 a wheel 151 operable by the user in rotation about an axis (Y ') which is perpendicular to the bottom smoothing plate 31. The wheel 151 is fixed in translation with the lower casing 32 and connected in rotation with a screw without end 152 being part of the same part as the wheel 151. The worm 152 being engaged in a threaded hole 154 located at the end of the plate 153, the latter is thus connected helically with the worm 152. De this fact, the rotation of the wheel 151 around the axis (Y ') is converted into a translation of the brushes 41, 41' along the axis (Y '). In kinetics, the two stops of the wheel 151 in rotation delimit the movement of the brushes 41, 41 'between an output position (PS) and a retracted position (PR), these having the same definitions as those of the first embodiment. .

Dans le but de rendre l'appareil plus souple en utilisation, un troisième mode de réalisation est envisageable. Celui-ci est illustré aux Figures 8, 9 et 10 et est expliqué par la suite. L'appareil comprend une mâchoire supérieure 2 comprenant un boîtier supérieur 22 dans lequel est agencé une plaque de lissage 21 supérieure. La plaque de lissage supérieure 21 est montée sur un porte plaque supérieur présentant sur chaque coté longitudinal de la plaque de lissage un méplat 23, 23'. L'appareil comprend en outre une mâchoire inférieure 3 montée sur charnière avec la mâchoire supérieure 2. La mâchoire inférieure 3 comprend un boîtier inférieur 32 dans lequel est disposé un porte plaque inférieur 233, 233' sur lequel est installée une plaque de lissage inférieure 31 en regard de la plaque de lissage supérieure 21. La mâchoire inférieure 3 comprend deux rangées de brosses 41, 41' sur chaque coté longitudinal de la plaque de lissage inférieure 31 en regard des méplats 23, 23', chaque rangée de brosses 41, 41' étant supportée par une barrette 242, 242' qui est elle-même montée sur un moyen de support sous forme d'un porte-barrette 255, 255'. Les moyens de réglage dans ce mode de réalisation sont désignés dans leur ensemble par la référence 25. Parmi les moyens de réglage 25, le porte-barrette 255, 255' présente une forme longitudinale et substantiellement cylindrique et un axe de rotation (X1, X2) qui est parallèle à l'axe (X) de symétrie du boîtier inférieur 32. Chaque porte-barrette 255, 255' est monté en liaison pivot sur le porte plaque inférieur 233 et comprend sur l'extrémité frontale une came 256, 256'. La came 256, 256' est en contact avec une pièce de commande comprenant un actionneur sous forme d'un bouton 251, deux barres verticales 252, 252' et une barre horizontale 253, l'ensemble étant lié en translation selon l'axe (X). La barre horizontale 253 comprend sur chaque extrémité un moyen de guidage sous forme d'un pion 254, 254' destiné à prendre contact avec la came 256, 256' et à glisser sur une surface 257, 257' de la came 256, 256' sensiblement spirale. Par le mouvement du bouton 251, le pion de guidage 254, 254' est actionné et se déplace sur la surface 257, 257' selon l'axe (X), ce qui fait que par l'effet de la poussée , la came 256, 256' ainsi que le porte-barrette 255, 255' sont entrainés à tourner autour de l'axe de rotation (X1, X2). De ce fait, les brosses 41, 41' peuvent être escamotées en se tournant vers l'extérieur de la plaque de lissage inférieure 31 et n'entrent plus en interaction avec la mèche de cheveux. Dans ce mode de réalisation, les brosses 41, 41' sont en position sortie (PS) quand elles sont perpendiculaires à la plaque de lissage inférieure 31. Elles passent en position rétractée (PR) lorsque les porte-barrette 255, 255' sont tournés à leur maximum vers l'extérieur de l'appareil et qu'ainsi les brosses 41, 41' sont écartées complètement de la plaque de lissage inférieure 31. Le bouton 251 est coulissant sur le boîtier et un cran lui permet d'être arrêté à chaque position choisie ce qui fait maintenir les brosses 41, 41' en place.In order to make the device more flexible in use, a third embodiment is possible. This is illustrated in Figures 8 , 9 and 10 and is explained later. The apparatus comprises an upper jaw 2 comprising an upper housing 22 in which is arranged an upper smoothing plate 21. The upper smoothing plate 21 is mounted on an upper plate door having on each longitudinal side of the smoothing plate a flat 23, 23 '. The apparatus further comprises a lower jaw 3 hinged to the upper jaw 2. The lower jaw 3 comprises a lower case 32 in which a bottom plate holder 233, 233 'is disposed on which a lower leveling plate 31 is installed. next to the upper smoothing plate 21. The lower jaw 3 comprises two rows of brushes 41, 41 'on each longitudinal side of the bottom smoothing plate 31 facing the flats 23, 23', each row of brushes 41, 41 'being supported by a bar 242, 242' which is itself mounted on a support means in the form of a bar holder 255, 255 '. The adjustment means in this embodiment are designated in their entirety by the reference 25. Among the adjustment means 25, the bar holder 255, 255 'has a longitudinal and substantially cylindrical shape and an axis of rotation (X1, X2 ) which is parallel to the axis (X) of symmetry of the lower housing 32. Each bar holder 255, 255 'is mounted pivotally connected to the lower plate holder 233 and comprises on the front end a cam 256, 256' . The cam 256, 256 'is in contact with a control part comprising an actuator in the form of a button 251, two vertical bars 252, 252' and a horizontal bar 253, the assembly being linked in translation along the axis ( X). Bar horizontal 253 includes on each end guide means in the form of a pin 254, 254 'intended to contact the cam 256, 256' and to slide on a surface 257, 257 'of the cam 256, 256' substantially spiral . By the movement of the button 251, the guide pin 254, 254 'is actuated and moves on the surface 257, 257' along the axis (X), so that by the effect of the push, the cam 256 , 256 'and the bar holder 255, 255' are caused to rotate about the axis of rotation (X1, X2). As a result, the brushes 41, 41 'can be retracted by turning outwardly of the lower smoothing plate 31 and no longer interact with the lock of hair. In this embodiment, the brushes 41, 41 'are in the output position (PS) when they are perpendicular to the bottom smoothing plate 31. They move to the retracted position (PR) when the bar holders 255, 255' are rotated at their maximum towards the outside of the apparatus and that the brushes 41, 41 'are spaced completely from the bottom smoothing plate 31. The button 251 is sliding on the housing and a notch allows it to be stopped at each selected position which keeps the brushes 41, 41 'in place.

Afin d'améliorer la mise en forme des cheveux, il est envisageable de combiner l'utilisation des brosses avec d'autres fonctionnalités intégrées à l'appareil. Par exemple, l'appareil peut comprendre un dispositif de vaporisation depuis un réservoir d'eau, la sortie de vapeur étant au milieu des plaques de lissage ou dans les rangées de brosses.In order to improve the shaping of the hair, it is conceivable to combine the use of the brushes with other functionalities integrated into the appliance. For example, the apparatus may include a spraying device from a water tank, the steam outlet being in the middle of the straightening plates or in the rows of brushes.
