Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of hair treatment, and in particular for the dyeing thereof.
- Document EP0443741 discloses an apparatus for formulating a custom mixed cosmetic product, like shampoos, hair dyes or skin lotions, at the point of sale in response to specific input criteria.
- the present invention does not replace the professionalism, artistic skills, style, elegance which are proper and peculiar to each hair stylist: the present invention facilitates, optimizes, supports and facilitates their work.
- the invention is designed for hair treatment, but the hardware and software components thereof can be easily developed and extended to all sectors of the fashion industry.
- the invention uses some existing technologies, modifying and implementing them according to specific needs and assembling them in a single complete and efficient structure which will be referred to as "automatic mixer" for preparing the dye.
- a particularly delicate stage is the color treatment to be defined on the basis of various data, including: hair health conditions, type of hair color, base color, shine, etc.
- the color is prepared manually, with doses established on the basis of the experience of the artisan and without any protection - even if some of the substances used are toxic - and often in small spaces not adequately ventilated.
- the automatic mixer for preparing the dye according to the present invention consists of an automatic color mixer, capable of dosing and mixing the colors and additives with very high precision through the information supplied, on the basis of the data collected and choices set by the professional based on the customer's requests.
- the entire preparation cycle takes place inside a sealed container of soundproofing material and provided with seals to limit the noise, so that the operators are not in contact with the substances and the cleaning and disposal activities are fully respectful of the environment.
- the automatic mixer described is provided with:
- the mixer performs, by means of specific control means, a check of the color level of each container and, in the event that the color contained in the various tanks is not sufficient to achieve the required amount of color, the LED lights corresponding to insufficient color are lit.
- the display shows a diagram with the numerical values for the levels of each individual color container.
- the computer connected to the mixer makes new orders to the pre-set supplier company.
- the dispensing apparatus described can also include, alternatively or in addition to the tablet, a touch-screen and/or a manual interface keyboard for the management of the formulas.
- An input for the INTERNET connection cable, digital connection sockets and an access door to the container for disposal are also provided.
- the containers inserted in the appropriate housings inside the equipment are the same as those which will be put on the market with the different products and are provided with a special valve for safety closing.
- This special valve is required to prevent the containers from being filled manually with unforeseen or non-original products which, moreover, could damage the equipment itself. It is also possible to provide a remote online control of the levels of consumption of liquids inside the containers themselves.
- On each of the containers it is possible to install a microchip adapted to communicate with the control unit to check if it is an original product and only in this case, the dispensing of the color from that container will be enabled.
- the system for dispensing the various liquids to be mixed comprises one or more dispensing pumps, preferably, but not exclusively, peristaltic, connected to the nozzles by means of said pipes of suitable diameter and made of materials such as silicone, PVC or other polymers.
- Each container whether of color or other liquids, includes its own connection to the respective nozzle which, along with the other nozzles, is grouped in a single dispensing bundle.
- a sensor located under the support plate/grid of the dye mixture collection bowl ready for application, is adapted to prevent the start of the color dispensing program without the bowl itself.
- the latter is located in a compartment provided with a motorized door controlled by the control unit
- a suction pump of the fumes from the blend is provided, connected to a venting pipe or alternatively, to a suction device with activated carbon filter.
- the invention is configured to allow all the salons to position the mixer in any place, even in the absence of a dedicated separate room with an adequate level of ventilation.
- the equipment is preferably powered by an uninterruptible power supply, with which it is possible to continue working even in the event of power failure.
- the software will provide the formulas to allow manual mixing of the different color combinations, moreover the mixing device will be able to dispense the color using standard emergency codes, in case of malfunctioning of the software.
- the door allows access to a compartment where the collection bowl of the dispensed color is accommodated, which bowl is placed on a rotating grid or plate connected to a motor located below the grid itself.
- the shaft of the motor is mounted eccentric with respect to the axis of the rotating plate, in order to produce a decentralized rotation of the bowl and thus allow mixing the color homogeneously, by means of the brush which acts as a spatula.
- a common brush for applying the dye is fixed to a locking magnetic hook placed at the height of the dispensing system.
- the bowl rotation is automatically activated. Once the mixing process in the sealed compartment has been completed and the toxic fumes are aspirated, the door is opened, the magnetic hook is released, thus releasing the brush and a warning light indicates that it is possible to access the compartment to take the bowl with the application brush ready for use.
- washing brushes and bowls which must be connected to the water supply or to a washing water tank.
- a rack (dishwasher type) is provided under the rotating support grid for the cup.
- a first drawer is designed to accommodate the brushes used for the application of color, while the rest of the rack is specially shaped to accommodate the dirty bowls with precision and ease.
- Two pressure water jets controlled by a pump, automatically wash both the bowls and the blades.
- a diluent can also be used.
- the cleaning water falls by gravity into a disposal container located in the lower part of the equipment.
- the access door to the compartment where the color collection bowl is accommodated could also be motorized and provided with a magnetic hook ( figs. 2, 3 , 4 ).
- a mechanism By removing the bowl from the support grid, a mechanism triggers the hook which opens automatically, thus dropping the brush into the bowl.
- the melanin pigment contained in the cortex determines the natural color of the hair, which ranges from black to platinum blonde and related nuances.
- the natural base of the hair is in fact defined by the different levels of Eumelanin, Tricosiderin and Pheomelanin and by the percentage of white hair present.
- the hair stylist must visually evaluate, on the basis of his/her experience, these features and, only subsequently, he/she can intervene by mixing and diluting the dye to obtain, with a good approximation, the desired color.
- the mixer described is designed to use only very few colors.
- the combinations managed by the software will give rise to all the possible nuances.
- the program based on the features of the hair of the subject, indicated according to a list of predefined types, will calculate with extreme precision the amounts of substances required to obtain the correct final result.
- the data to be processed can be entered manually, directly from electronic detection instruments (spectrometers, microcamera, 3D scanner, etc.), or in a semi-automatic mode to give the artisan the possibility to make some choices in complete autonomy.
- the subject will be able to choose the desired color with the certainty of seeing exactly the chosen nuance applied to his/her hair, without having the data falsified by the synthetic material with which traditional charts are made ( Fig. 7 ), currently supplied by the major manufacturers to beauty salons.
- VDCC Virtual Dynamic Color Chart
- the subject i.e. the customer
- the VDCC in the three versions: straight, wavy, curly hair ( Fig. 8 ).
- Said virtual chart is shown to the subject through the tablet supplied with the mixer or using a special display or a high-definition screen connected to the mixer itself, which in any case is preferably provided with a small display to allow the configuration and communication (interface) thereof with the equipment.
- the selection can thus take place initially based on the customer's characteristics and then based on the choice, among the three types.
- Each color is represented by a thick lock of hair which will be animated by moving and modifying the shades according to the movement ( Fig. 9 ) and the corresponding light changes ( Fig. 10 ).
- Fig. 9 the movement of the shade
- Fig. 10 the corresponding light changes
- the dynamic image relative to the chosen lock will occupy the entire surface of the screen.
- a second option is provided in which the program allows combining primary, secondary, tertiary colors and so on up to reproduce and define a highly sophisticated tone of nuance with extreme precision. Based on the most advanced colorimetric theories, the software will allow the professional to visually verify the different combinations.
- the colors present in the VDCC will in fact also be placed in a circular star-like Oswald diagram ( Fig. 11 ).
- the program which manages and operates the described mixing device provides for the correct procedure for achieving a certain objective (chosen color and type) from the peculiar features of the subject who wishes to color his/her hair.
- the melanin pigment contained in the cortex determines the natural color of the hair, which ranges from black to platinum blonde and related nuances.
- the values expressed in the table also serve to calculate the percentage and features of the counter-color.
- the starting data to be entered in the database are as follows:
- the software After receiving this input data, the software takes into account the additional values detected by the electronic precision instruments, such as the hair shininess, skin color, skin shininess, scalp and hair anomalies correction, implant, etc.
- the software processes the qualitative and quantitative data previously acquired and the processing begins for calculating and adding to the formulation the volume of oxygen and the type and amount of compensation counter-color, which elements are required to achieve the final formulation.
- the software defines and dispenses the final dye in the required amount, so as to avoid waste or, conversely, not to risk producing insufficient amounts.
- the data which are gradually stored in said database which becomes increasingly large, allows a continuous optimization of the colors processed by the software.
- the invention is designed to use, preferably but not exclusively, from 3 to 14 colors altogether, precisely due to the fact that the combinations managed by the software allow obtaining all the possible infinite shades of color.
- the software has the possibility of applying different combinations to reproduce the full range of possible shades. Below is a list of two of the possible combinations:
- the three primary RYB colors (RED YELLOW BLUE) combined with each other in the same amount, with the addition of NEUTRAL and BLACK, used to dilute and darken, will make all 10 levels plus the relative nuances.
- the balanced mixtures of the three primary colors - yellow, red and blue - form the natural and white covering levels which, appropriately diluted with NEUTRAL or reinforced with BLACK, are able to form the 10 levels.
- the excess quantity of one or more of the three primary colors will determine the chosen nuance and/or counter-color required to balance the formulation. At this point, it will suffice to combine the amount of oxygen at the right level - obtained from the combination of a percentage of 1 volume oxygen (or distilled water) with that at 40 volumes - to achieve the desired shade of color.
- the mixer device described includes a manual or automatic powder dispenser (such as a bar coffee machine dispenser) for preparing and dispensing the bleaches.
- the colors which can be used according to the present invention can advantageously be liquid or powder, of chemical or natural origin.
- Dyeing herbs are collected seasonally and sieved several times until they have the consistency of talc.
- the fine powder obtained can be dissolved in hot water until it becomes a creamy paste, ready to be applied.
- the invention in addition to or alternatively to the nozzles already described for liquid dyes, the invention includes suitable powder dispensers for dispensing the right amount of powder dyes, which are contained in respective containers for powder products.
- the dye can be dispensed through a suction system with a high prevalence at low flow which can ensure that the original humidity of the dye is retained, and/or through a system (gravimetric or volumetric - with a preferably electronic measuring system) capable of ensuring a high and constant accuracy of the dispensing of the amounts, even minimal.
- a suction system with a high prevalence at low flow which can ensure that the original humidity of the dye is retained, and/or through a system (gravimetric or volumetric - with a preferably electronic measuring system) capable of ensuring a high and constant accuracy of the dispensing of the amounts, even minimal.
- yogurt vinegar and lemon, which as acid carriers are very useful for the complexation of vegetable pigments with the hair, increasing the yield of the product and fixing the color.
- yogurt provides softness, vinegar is effective on greasy skin/hair, lemon accentuates light colors.
- the application of the dyeing herbs must also be done taking into account the features of the hair of the subject to be colored - which condition also applies to all types of substances used.
- the software must therefore be instructed to process the data provided by the detection tools with appropriate variants.
- the creamy paste obtained by mixing the mixes of powders with hot water does not produce toxic fumes but, rather, a pleasant smell which will also have a relaxing and preparatory function during the application step to the hair.
- the apparatus according to the present invention is intended to be used only with natural powder colors, providing an internal and sealed automatic mixing system will not be required.
- the powder deposited by the dispenser in the bowl, together with the right dose of hot water, will be mixed outside directly by the operator who will have the task of applying it to the subject's hair.
