Definitions
- the present invention relates to a hairstyling device that can use steam and intended for shaping by contact with the hair, in particular for smoothing but also for wrapping a person's hair.
- hair curlers or not straightener or straightener and looper or curler or loop pliers.
- the devices of the type pliers to smooth or loop usually comprise two jaws pivoting relative to each other about a common axis, and each comprising an end supporting a treatment surface, at least one of the surfaces of treatment being heated, the other being provided to bring the hair in contact with the first, in particular by passing from an opening position of the jaws allowing the insertion of the hair to a closed position for their contact with the part heating.
- the straightener has on one end of its jaws two identical flat heated surfaces and gripping the hair.
- the other end of the jaws form two handles acting as a gripping area and to move from the open position to the closing position.
- the passage is done manually by pressing the two articulated handles of the device towards one another to bring the treatment surfaces in contact with the hair. Smoothing a lock of hair is done by moving the device along this wick, from the root to the tip in a straight translation of the closed device.
- the looper has surfaces formed by a cylindrical heating mandrel with a tile pinching the end of the wick pivotably on the mandrel prior to winding the complete wick around the mandrel.
- the closure of a strand of hair is made by at least partially winding the wick around the treatment surface (s) and applying heat to fix the loop mainly in static. It is provided in each of these two devices to additionally use steam sprayed on the hair. This makes it possible to improve the shaping of the hair, to lengthen the shaping of the hair, to keep the moisture in the hair, to heal the hair or to help the penetration of cosmetic active ingredients into the hair.
- FIG. 1 The straightener of the second document cited is illustrated in FIG. It has a smoothing pliers comprising two identical planar smoothing plates and facing one another and the steam outlet orifices.
- the vapor straightener as described in EP2591698 and illustrated in the present application is considered in FIG. 1 as the closest prior art.
- This currently marketed device is satisfactory in terms of smoothing and is capable of producing a steam flow sufficient to highly treat the hair fiber. Nevertheless, to produce an excellent smoothing and a significant steam flow, this device contains many internal elements that have a technically optimized configuration but occupy a large enough space compared to a conventional straightener.
- the jaw that produces steam contains a vaporization chamber.
- the two housings or the two shells receiving the plates and the vaporization chamber each have an outer cover which, in cross section, has a width or greater identical width.
- the two covers draw an asymmetrical external line and relatively flat especially at the steam function, that is to say at the steam ports and the deflector facing the orifices.
- this device to form loops by surrounding the wick around a hood or two covers, it will not be able to form a well round loop or to form a very regular loop or slip in a fluid and regular way to undo the loop once formed.
- the object of the present invention is to remedy at least in part the aforementioned drawbacks and to provide a straightener, steam or not, compact and able to form regular loops.
- Another objective is to provide a straightener, steam or not, compact and able to form loops by an easy mode of use.
- Another objective is to provide a straightener, steam or not, capable of forming loops of at least two sizes (or diameters) different or at least three sizes (or diameters) different by easy use of this device alone .

- Another object of the invention is a hair-contact shaping apparatus capable of using steam which allows easy and convenient use.
- Another object of the invention is a hair-contact shaping apparatus that can utilize steam and disposable additional elements that are simple in design, inexpensive in design.
- Another object of the invention is a hair-contact shaping apparatus which can use steam that is secure and can never burn the scalp or the user's hands.
- a hair styling device for looping and straightening hair comprising a first and a second jaw elongated and pivotally movable relative to each other, the first jaw having a first housing having a first internal treatment planar surface and the second jaw having a second housing carrying a second inner planar surface of treatment, the inner surfaces being for gripping a lock of hair, at least one heating element for heating at least one internal treatment surface.
- the largest width 11 of the first housing is less than or equal to 90% of the largest width 12 of the second housing.
- the second jaw comprises steam outlet means oriented towards the first housing and adjacent to the second internal treatment surface.
- the technical elements to produce and extract the steam are enclosed in the largest jaw, namely the largest jaw.
- the steam generating means comprises at least one fluid reservoir in fluid communication with a vaporization chamber, the vaporization chamber being heated by a heating means for also heating the treatment surface or by means of dedicated heating only to the steam chamber.
- the largest width 11 of the first housing is between 75% and 85% of the largest width 12 of the second housing, preferably equal to 80%. This allows each housing to receive all the interior technical elements while limiting the overall external dimensions of the two covers or two shells receiving the hair treatment part.
- the median plane P1 in longitudinal section of the first housing is parallel to and distinct from the median plane P2 in longitudinal section of the second housing. This means that in cross-section orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of the straightener, the section does not have orthogonal symmetry with respect to the smoothing plane P1.
- the smoothing plane P1 is defined in that it contains the planar smoothing zone.
- the first housing is offset relative to the second housing.
- This asymmetry or this offset provides a device whose use will be intuitively for the user in a particular sense.
- This arrangement intuitively guides the user to the most efficient mode of use. More particularly according to the invention, the distance between said two median planes (P1, P2) is between 5% and 20% of the value of the largest width 12 of the second housing, preferably equal to 10%. This offset is pronounced sufficiently to guide the user ergonomically.
- one of the two longitudinal edges of the first housing is in line with the longitudinal edge of the second housing arranged on the same side of the second housing.
- the curve formed by the contour of the two shells or boxes will be relatively symmetrical with respect to the plane of smoothing Pl.
- the plane of smoothing PI is the plane containing the smoothing zone formed by the two surfaces in contact with each other.
- the internal processing surfaces are planar, identical and are facing each other in the closed position, are arranged in their respective housing and adjacent to said plumbed edges.
- these edges are arranged on the scalp side to allow the hair, among the various combinations of treatments provided by the device (including smoothing, steaming, even combing or brushing), to be subjected lastly to the treatment of smoothing and to ensure a finish of the perfect hairstyle.
- each of said two longitudinal edges is provided with at least one protruding bar towards the inside of the housing and of the same material as that of said housings.
- This bar is protruding relative to the contour of the housing and is oriented towards the inside of the housing.
- This bar ideally forms two surfaces with a right angle (and not a chamfer) and one of which is parallel to the treatment surface or surface of the adjacent smoothing plate.
- This bar allows, when the device is closed to receive the wick in tension, to submit to a shear and bend more easily. This effect called “bolduc” is to be compared with the effect of a chisel blade passed by sliding on a ribbon ribbon to form loops.
- the bars are identical and arranged in the same place on the jaws to produce the effect called "bolduc" identical according to the inclination of the straightener upwards and downwards.
- the bar has a specific design and surface condition allowing the hair to have a frictional force on the upper bar relative to the frictional force on the outer surface of the jaws.
- the surface condition can be a rough coating.
- the width of each internal processing surface is between 40% and 60% of the largest width 11 of the first housing, preferably between 40% and 50%, preferably equal to substantially 45%. Substantially half the width of the housings is occupied to produce the main processing step namely the smoothing step necessary to smooth the wick that may be then looped according to the choice of the user.
- the first housing has a deflector formed in its inner contour and arranged in closed position substantially opposite the steam outlet means of the second housing.
- This deflector has several functions: protect the scalp from any jet of steam that could burn it, reflect the vapor to the hair that will be crossed twice and will be better treated.
- the angle and the arrangement of the deflector is such that its dimension is minimized at best compared to the closest prior art while keeping its functionalities.
- the second housing comprises a comb or brush oriented towards the first housing and adjacent to the second internal treatment surface.
- the order of treatment of the wick is as follows: combing or brushing then smoothing or, in the case of vapor formed, steam then combing or brushing then smoothing.
- the first housing has a groove formed in its inner contour and arranged in closed position substantially opposite the comb or brush of the second housing. This makes it possible to receive at least the free end of the comb or at least the free end of the brush row in closed position while limiting the bulk at best, while protecting the end of the accessory (comb, brush , etc.) of any excessive tension experienced during the passage of the device in closed position along the wick and which could damage the comb.
- the comb must not be in abutment with the upper case before contact of the hotplates.
- the first handle of the first jaw and the second handle of the second jaw each have a width Lp strictly less than the largest width 11 of the first housing. This makes it easy to grip for any size of hand.
- the handles are in longitudinal axial extension of the respective housings.
- the edges of the housings which are plumb with each other are each in a particular configuration aligned (according to a same right) with the corresponding edges of the handles.
- the asymmetry of the device is pronounced also at the level of the handles.
- the outer surface of the first housing and the at least one second housing covering the treatment area formed by the treatment surfaces is substantially smooth. This makes it possible to slide the wicks the best when they are wrapped around one or both cases and they must be detached without affecting the shape of the loops manufactured, shiny surface condition, Charmilles type 0 or 3 roughness Ra of the so-called substantially smooth surface will range from 0.2 ⁇ to 2 ⁇ , more particularly from 0.2 ⁇ to 0.5 ⁇ .
- At least one gripping area may be disposed on the outer surface of the housings. This gripping area is adapted to limit the heat transfer to offer the possibility of a new gesture without risk of burns by keeping the jaws by the housings and not by the handles.
- the surface of this gripping zone may be made of a different material or may have a surface state different from the rest of the outer surface of each housing.
- the line defined by the outer contour of the first and second housings is a rounded curve having no point of inflection.
- the line is visually never flat. This makes it possible to provide a device with reduced space, capable of forming loops and whose overall contour is substantially rounded. For these reasons of size and different capacity of the two housings, the outer contour is however not circular.
- the apparatus comprises a fluid reservoir and vaporization means in fluid communication with the steam outlet means and an actuator for controlling the vaporization means. This allows the steam to be controlled separately from the heating of the treatment or smoothing surfaces. The user has the choice by this actuator.
- the vaporization means comprise an electric pump and said actuator is intended to control the electric pump.
- said actuator is intended to control the electric pump. This makes it possible to control the supply of the vaporization chamber independently the heating of treatment or smoothing surfaces.
- the user wants to stop the vaporization, he presses the actuator or switch to stop the operation of the electric pump while the heating of the vaporization chamber remains unchanged by the operation of the switch and continues. If the user again wants steam, it will activate the switch that will turn on the electric pump and make the steam immediately operational because the steam chamber will have remained at proper temperature during the shutdown of the pump. The user has the choice by this actuator between the immediate steam stop and the immediate steam recovery.

- the outline of the device is clearly asymmetrical and is used judiciously as much to reduce the size of the interior elements as to facilitate the process of using the straightener to form loops of different size. As shown in FIGS.
- transverse longitudinal plane P4 and respectively transverse longitudinal plane P5 are the median plane of the internal processing surface 4, respectively of the internal processing surface 5.
- this plane P4 is parallel and offset outwards by compared to plans P1 and P2.
- the planes P4, P1 and P2 are parallel to each other and are each orthogonal to the smoothing plane P1.
- the first housing 6 and the second housing 7 of this example are also asymmetrical with respect to their respective median plane (P1, P2). in longitudinal section.
- the internal treatment surfaces 4, 5 are planar, identical, are facing each other in the closed position, and are arranged in their respective housings 6, 7 adjacent and adjacent said edges in line 61, 71.
- Figure 4 is shown the straight line, straight tangent to the edges 61 and 71 of the housings or hoods plumb. This straight line is orthogonal to the plane of smoothing Pl.
- the curves of the contours Ii6, respectively Ii7, of the housings 6 and 7 form an arc of a circle which is substantially continuous at the edges 61 and 71 in a plumb and therefore the value of the arc of circle is about 15mm.
- Each of said two longitudinal edges 61, 71 is internally provided with a protruding bar 62, 72 towards the inside of the device, preferably of the same material (plastic for example PBT) as that of said housings 6, 7.
- These strips are arranged identically on the two housings as shown in Figure 5. They allow to apply a voltage to give a so-called “bolduc” effect to the hair that slide on one of these bars during the smoothing gesture. This is a first way of forming loops inward or outwardly, depending on the bar used, the bar arranged at the bottom, respectively arranged at the top of the straightener used.
- the width I of each treatment surface internal 4, 5 is between 40% and 60% of the largest width 11 of the first housing 6, preferably between 40% and 50%, or even substantially equal to 45%.
- r radius of curvature formed by the contour of each side of the first housing 6: about 14mm.
- the straightener according to the invention has its second jaw 3 comprising steam outlet means 31 oriented towards the first housing 6 and adjacent to the second internal treatment surface 5.
- the first jaw 2 comprises for the treatment of hair only a smoothing plate
- the second jaw has for hair treatment a smoothing plate and at least one additional hair function.
- Said at least one additional hairdressing function can be one or more functions selected from the following list: vaporization, combing, brushing, ionization, application of tension by a bar of silicone-type material, application of a voltage by a mobile bar driven by example in oscillatory motion.
- the present invention thus makes it possible to provide a compact hairdressing appliance with a hairdressing function that is additional to that of smoothing and with the ability to form loops of at least two different sizes, or even at least three different sizes.
- said additional hairdressing function is embedded on the widest case of both.
- the invention lies in the best reduction in the width of the jaw housing exhibiting only the smoothing function without the latter causing any malfunction in terms of safety or in terms of efficiency of the complete hairdressing appliance.
- the formation of the loops as well as the "loosening" of the buckles represented an additional constraint on the size and on the shape of the housings.
- the first housing 6 has a deflector 21 formed in its inner contour and arranged in a closed position substantially opposite the steam outlet means 31 of the second 7.
- This baffle protects the scalp from unwanted projection of steam or condensed hot water droplets.
- This deflector 21 makes it possible to return the steam towards the hair which will be crossed twice by the steam.
- the deflector according to the prior art illustrated in FIG. 1 was very wide, was flat and covered the entire dimension of the jaw opposite.
- the sizing of the deflector 21 of the invention illustrated in FIG. 4 has been judiciously chosen by the inventors to maintain this function: the width dimension is reduced as much as possible so that it just covers the steam outlet orifices 31 .
- the shape of this deflector is changed: it is flatter as shown in Figure 1, but the inner contour of the first housing 6 is inclined upward to represent the deflector.
- the second housing 7 comprises a comb or a brush 32 oriented towards the first housing 6 and adjacent to the second internal treatment surface 5.
- the first housing 6 may have a groove 22 formed in its housing. inner contour and arranged in closed position substantially opposite the comb or the brush 32 of the second housing 7. In this way, the comb separates well the entire thickness of the wick without the combing function takes too much space.
- the first handle 6 'of the first jaw 2 and the second handle 7' of the second jaw 3 each have a width Ip that is strictly smaller than the largest width 11 of the first housing 6; that is to say, the smallest width on the two housings 6 and 7. Also the edges of the housings 6 and 7 which are arranged vertically are in these cases aligned with the edge of the same side of the handles to form a straight line Laii alignment alignment as illustrated in Figure 2. It turns out that this alignment increases the ergonomics of the device that can be handled by any hand size.
- the outer surface of the first housing 6 and the second housing 7 is substantially smooth.
- the coefficient of friction was measured via measurements of the roughness of the shell at the area intended for the winding of the loops as follows:
- the rugosimeter used is Mitutoyo brand, No. JP1010.
- the statistical criterion R a is statistical, and it is the arithmetic average deviation from the mean line.
- the line defined by the outer contour of the first and second housings 6, 7 is a rounded curve having no point of inflection.
- a major part of the work has been to define at best an outline of the housings as rounded and as fluid as possible, without point of inflection and depending on the size of the interior elements and the safety and efficiency measures set by the device. Note that in cross section, there is no flat line visually detectable to the naked eye.
- At the first housing it has arcs on the sides smaller than the arcs on the sides of the second housing.
- the radii of curvature on each side of the first housing 6 are substantially identical. This makes it possible to form the roundest loops possible. This also avoids angles on the device fragile to shocks.
- the outer contour of the first housing 6 is approximately a reduction of the outer contour in cross section of the second housing 7 of about 0.8 ratio.
- the apparatus comprises a fluid reservoir 83 and means for vaporization 80 in fluid communication with the steam outlet means 31 and an actuator 85 for controlling the vaporization means 80.
- the vaporization means 80 comprise an electric pump 84 and said actuator 85 is intended to control the pump 84. This allows to control the supply of the vaporization chamber 81 regardless of the heating of the treatment or smoothing surfaces 4, 5.
- the user has the choice by this actuator 85. If he wants to make loops with or without steam, the user intervenes on the actuator directly.
- the electric pump may be a peristaltic pump whose actuator 85 will control the motor.
- the device has a two-piece configuration: a smoothing pliers according to the invention described above and a remote base.
- a base 1000 comprising a reservoir (main) fluid 83
- a portable unit 100 comprising means 80 for vaporizing the fluid
- steam distribution means 31 for the hair a cord 121 comprising at least one pipe for the fluid passage and arranged between the main fluid reservoir 83 and the vaporization means 80
- the portable unit 100 comprises at least a first treatment surface 4 intended for come into contact with the hair and the means of vaporization of the fluid 80 are exclusively provided in the portable unit 100.
- the base is said to be “remote” of the portable unit, and posable on a work plan.
- the base comprises a base 1001 for receiving the portable unit or handpiece 100 when it is not in use, and comprises a cover 2030 for introducing the fluid, the cover 2030 can be completely removable to replace the demineralization means 2000 (cartridge) when necessary.
- Part of the base may be transparent so that the user can be visually alerted that the ion exchange resin changes color because it is no longer operative.
- It comprises demineralization means 2000 which make it possible to reduce the limestone content of the fluid introduced into the base.
- These demineralization means 2000 are arranged between an intermediate reservoir receiving the "raw” fluid and between the reservoir 83 which contains the "purified" fluid for the hairdressing apparatus 1.
- the base 1000 comprises demineralization means 2000 and a fluid reservoir 83, the fluid is supplied by the cord 121 comprising a fluid line 21' and electrical wires 121 ".
- fluid from the tank of the base to the vaporization chamber of the portable unit 100 comprises an electric pump 84, here a peristaltic pump whose motor 84 'is controlled by the actuator 85 arranged here on the base 1000.
- the apparatus can take a configuration illustrated in FIG. 2 comprising a single apparatus with an integrated fluid reservoir and an onboard vaporization actuator 85.
- the user will connect the power supply of the apparatus, the heating element type CTP or ceramic will heat the surfaces intended to come into contact with the hair, and a separate heating element (or the same element heating) starts to heat the vaporization means 80 (when it is a steam function), the user grasps the device and applies it to pinch the lock of hair to be treated.
- the arrangement of the device on the wick is important: the user must arrange and close the straightener so that the two sides to the plumb are closest to the scalp, the 2, the user can then perform the conventional smoothing step by sliding the hair straight along the wick in the direction represented by the arrow drawn on the first housing 6 of FIGS. 2 and 3. .
- the apparatus 1 When the user wishes to form small loops, he proceeds as follows: the apparatus 1 being in the open position, it surrounds the first housing 6 with the lock of hair, then it closes the straightener closer to the scalp, keeps it still for several seconds and then slides the device 1 towards the free end of the wick to "unmold" the wick. This makes it possible to form loops and of small size.
- the user wishes to form loops of larger size it proceeds as follows: once the closed device closer to the scalp, it slides along the whole wick and, at the end of the wick, it keeps the device in the closed position and turns on itself to wind the wick around the two housings 6, 7 in the closed position to the scalp, then, after a few seconds, it unrolls the wick. This makes it possible to form glossy smooth loops of large size.
- Each static step can last a few seconds or even a minute or two, the time that the loops are formed correctly.
- the pause time varies depending on the temperature of the device and the wicking format treated.
- the invention provides numerous advantages, among which is a hair shaping apparatus, in particular a straightener:
