  • the two axes are arranged relative to each other with an angle of between 80 degrees and 100 degrees, preferably 90 degrees.
  • Such a substantially orthogonal arrangement makes it possible to create more homogeneous air compartments for a better distribution of heat.
  • the protruding lines occupy substantially the entire inner surface of the first housing, which increases the temperature homogeneity in the treatment area.
  • the median plane of the inner surface is substantially parallel to that of the first treatment surface for a better distribution of heat and a homogeneous temperature in the treatment zone.
  • the height of the first series of protruding lines is between 1mm and 9mm, preferably 3mm.
  • the height of the second series of protruding lines is between 1mm and 8mm, preferably 2mm.
  • the length of each compartment along the first axis is between 5mm and 20mm, preferably 14mm.
  • the width of each compartment along the second axis is between 3mm and 15mm, preferably 7mm.
  • the protruding lines of each series have the same thickness.
  • the upper edge of one of the series of protruding lines exceeds that of the other.
  • the upper edge is meant the edge facing the treatment surface. This configuration makes it possible to create a flow of air in the lateral direction between compartments
  • the first jaw comprises in the first housing a sheet-shaped thermal conduction means arranged between the vaporization means and the inner surface.
  • a sheet-shaped thermal conduction means arranged between the vaporization means and the inner surface.
  • This is for example an aluminum foil which, according to the tests, contributes to the heat distribution and the temperature drop of the housing.
  • said thermal conduction means is supported on the upper edge of at least one of the two series of protruding lines.
  • Way to Conduction can be attached to protruding lines by gluing which is a simple and economical solution.
  • the series of protruding lines form a single piece with the first housing and extend from the inner surface thereof to facilitate its manufacture, for example by molding.
  • the hair styling apparatus 1 is of the straightener type and comprises two jaws 2, 3 which are articulated to each other by pivoting by means of a pivot connection of the hinge type, a first jaw 2 comprising a first housing 21 having a longitudinal shape.
  • the first housing 21 has a gripping zone near said pivot connection and a treatment zone receiving a first treatment surface 4 which is a heating plate.
  • the apparatus further comprises a second jaw 3 having substantially the same shape as the first jaw 2 and comprising a second longitudinal housing 31 having a gripping zone and a treatment zone receiving a second treatment surface 5 which is a heating plate.
  • the two jaws 2, 3 constitute a clamp which allows either an angular spacing between these two jaws 2, 3, or an approximation one against the other of these two jaws 2, 3 to allow the pinching of hair arranged between the two jaws 2, 3.
  • said heating plates each have a flat surface arranged on the inner faces of the jaws 2, 3.
  • the two flat heating surfaces are arranged facing one another and allow concomitantly to perform a heat treatment of the hair, to perform a smoothing treatment.
  • the treatment surfaces can quite take other forms depending on the type of treatment desired.
  • the apparatus 1 further comprises a vaporization system as illustrated in FIG. figure 1 comprising a base 1000 with a reservoir 19 of liquid.
  • a portable unit 100 comprises the two jaws 2, 3 as well as means for vaporizing the fluid 7, means for dispensing the steam 7 'to the hair and a cord 24 comprising at least one channel intended for the passage of fluid and arranged between the reservoir 19 of liquid and the vaporization means 7.
  • the base 1000 is offset from the portable unit 100, and posable on a work plan. The configuration of such an apparatus is described in the patent 2,967,017 in the name of the plaintiff and does not require further description.
  • said fluid evaporation means 7 and said steam distribution means 7 ' are arranged only in the first housing 21, hereinafter referred to as "the housing", which is illustrated in detail in FIGS. figures 3 and 4 .
  • the housing 21 has an inner surface 22 substantially parallel to the first surface 4 of treatment which is the bottom of the housing 21 and which is opposite the vaporization means 7. In the case where the bottom of the housing is slightly curved, it is the median plane of the inner surface 22 which is parallel to the first surface 4 of treatment.
