Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of hairdressing devices and in particular to the field of hairdressing devices making it possible to create curls and/or waves on the hair.
  • the present invention relates in particular to the field of hairdressing devices comprising a rotating accessory.
  • the invention relates to the technical field of hairdressing appliances comprising a main body comprising a handle extending longitudinally along a first axis, an accessory intended to come into contact with the hair to shape the latter, said accessory extending longitudinally along a second axis, a motor for rotating the accessory around said second axis so that the hair can be wound around said accessory.
  • This type of device gives excellent results in shaping hair and is therefore well appreciated by users.
  • this type of device can sometimes present some difficulties when using it, particularly when the device is used by a single person who is looking to do their own hair.
  • the document FR2978332 discloses a rotating blower brush.
  • the present invention aims to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks.
  • An objective of the invention is to provide a hairdressing device which is particularly ergonomic to use, whatever the area of the head to be styled.
  • Another objective of the invention is to propose a hairdressing device which is particularly ergonomic to use, both for a user using the device on himself (user doing his own hair) and for a user using the device on another person (user styling another person), and this on all parts of the hair.
  • Another objective of the invention is to propose a hairdressing device which is particularly comfortable to use.
  • Another objective of the invention is to provide a hairdressing device which is particularly reliable and robust.
  • Another objective of the invention is to propose a hairdressing device which is particularly economical to design and manufacture.
  • Another objective of the invention is to provide a hairdressing device which is particularly easy to repair.
  • Another objective of the invention is to provide a hairdressing device which is particularly effective for shaping hair, in particular for creating curls or waves or obtaining a "brushing" effect on these. last.
  • handle we mean for example any element allowing a user to grasp and manipulate the hairdressing appliance, such as a handle for example.
  • the handle can advantageously form the main body or, on the contrary, be separated from the main body, while still being connected to the latter.
  • the handle is aligned with the main body.
  • the handle and the main body both extend along the first axis.
  • the hairdressing device is thus advantageously portable, that is to say it can be transported and oriented in space according to the user's wishes.
  • the accessory has a revolution shape, and advantageously a cylindrical shape, which maximizes the surface area coming into contact with the hair to shape it.
  • a shape makes it easier to rotate the accessory.
  • the accessory is removable, that is to say removable, that is to say that it is possible for the user to remove the accessory from the hairdressing appliance, that is i.e. to separate the accessory and the handle, for example to replace it with another accessory of a different size and/or shape.
  • This allows the user to choose as they wish the hairstyle that they will create on their hair, in particular by being able to choose the diameter of the curls or waves that they will create using the accessory.
  • This can also allow the user to choose the most suitable accessory depending on the nature of their hair.
  • the accessory comprises a contact surface intended to serve as a hair winding surface and a plurality of pins projecting from said contact surface. Said plurality of pins makes it possible to grip the hair and, combined with the rotation of the accessory, to wrap it well around the winding surface.
  • the contact surface is a surface of revolution, advantageously cylindrical thus forming a mandrel on which the hair can wind automatically under the effect of the rotation of the accessory.
  • the motor is an electric motor.
  • the expression "motor” could designate a motor driven by another energy, such as for example pneumatic, magnetic or even human energy.
  • each of said first position and second position guarantees the correct extraction of air through the air outlet.
  • the accessory in two distinct and different positions.
  • said first axis and second axis form a flat angle: they are therefore either aligned (that is to say merged) or parallel.
  • the accessory and the handle are either aligned (one being an extension of the other), (that is to say merged) or parallel.
  • said first axis and second axis form an angle which is not flat: they are therefore neither aligned, nor merged, nor parallel.
  • the accessory and the handle form an elbow, one being inclined relative to the other.
  • the positions retained are either a position in which the accessory is aligned with the main body, or a position in which the accessory is inclined relative to the main body.
  • the hairdressing device which is the subject of the invention in the first position to shape his hair located on the side of his head, in a manner known as such.
  • the ergonomics of the hairdressing device as defined by the invention is also optimized for a user who would use the hairdressing device on a third person, for example for a hairdresser who would perform a hairstyle on a client.
  • the user can place the accessory in the second position to easily reach the hair located on the top of the head of the person to be styled, while keeping their arm alongside the body, a position which is particularly ergonomic.
  • the accessory is movable between exactly the first position and the second position, that is to say that the accessory has only two possible positions each allowing the rotation of the accessory. In other words, there is no intermediate position allowing the device to function properly between the first position and the second position.
  • said first position and second position are stable positions and defined by design.
  • the first position and the second position are pre-existing positions, defined by the designers of the device, in which the accessory is automatically maintained. This ensures that the user can only select the best positions of the device, those which guarantee the best ergonomics, positions which will have been carefully defined in advance by the designers of the device. This is particularly suitable for people new to hairdressing operations.
  • the user cannot define said first position and second position, he can simply move the accessory between one and the other, the accessory being automatically maintained either in the first position or in the second position . This is particularly interesting for a user who does not have particular knowledge of ergonomics or hairstyles, thus limiting the risk of error for the user.
  • the stability of the accessory alternately in one or the other of said first and second positions ensures the proper maintenance of the accessory in the position chosen by the user (in this case the first or the second) , regardless of the effort applied to the accessory. This therefore avoids any accidental or unwanted movement of the accessory, particularly during hair styling operations where significant forces can be exerted on the accessory, efforts which tend to cause the accessory to move and therefore cause it to leave its position. position.
  • the second axis forms an angle ⁇ different from the right angle with the first axis when the accessory is in the second position.
  • said angle ⁇ is between 100° and 170°, preferably between 130° and 170° and advantageously equal to 150°.
  • the designers of the device noticed that these angle ranges were particularly advantageous for optimizing the ergonomics of the hairdressing device, whether for a user using the device on himself or for a user using the device on a third person, as explained previously.
  • the main body comprises a joint located between and connecting the handle and the accessory.
  • a joint placed between the handle and the accessory allows the user to move the accessory between the first position and the second position as desired and with complete ease.
  • the articulation then comprises a first inclined side and a second inclined side, said first inclined side and second inclined side being movable relative to each other so as to move the accessory between said first positions and second position.
  • Such a blocking device makes it possible to ensure the automatic maintenance of the accessory in one or other of said first or second positions (that is to say alternately in one and the other of said first and second position) according to the user's wishes, in a safe, reliable and inexpensive manner.
  • said free position is preferably an unstable position while said locked position is a stable position. This therefore encourages the user to systematically place the accessory either in the first position or in the second position, strongly dissuading him (not to say forbidding him) from placing the accessory in another position since the blocking device will then refuse to lock.
  • This allows the novice user to easily select the best positions for using the the device.
  • This also guarantees that the accessory is maintained either in the first position or in the second position and avoids any unwanted evolution of the accessory: in fact, positive action by the user is necessary on the blocking device to be able to move the accessory from one position to another.
  • the rotation drive motor of the accessory is located inside said accessory.
  • This embodiment is particularly well suited to the advantageous case where the accessory is hollow. This makes it possible to arrange the rotational drive motor of the accessory outside the main body, and in particular outside the handle, and therefore to reduce the size of the latter, in particular its diameter which further improves the ergonomics of the device.
  • the hairdressing appliance which is the subject of the invention is a blower brush, that is to say, a device combining the functions of drying and brushing hair. More precisely, the device illustrated is a rotating blower brush, that is to say that the device, in addition to being able to blow hot air, has a rotating accessory allowing you to create curls or waves in the hair, as will be detailed later.
  • the main body 1 also includes an air inlet 110 located at the free end of the main body 1 as can be seen in the figures.
  • an air inlet is typically used on “blowing brush” type hairdressing appliances. It is therefore through this air inlet 110 that the air is sucked in by the air moving device, heated by the air heating device, then then extracted from the main body 1 by the end connected to an accessory 2, as will be detailed later.
  • the air inlet 110 typically comprises a grid, advantageously removable, intended to prevent foreign bodies (such as hair for example) from being sucked in by the air movement device.
  • the main body 1 can be formed of two half-shells assembled together so as to facilitate assembly, disassembly, repair or maintenance operations of the device.
  • the main body 1 extends longitudinally along a first axis PP' as illustrated by the figures 6 and 7 . As we can see, the main body extends between a free end (that is to say which is not connected to other parts) and an end intended to receive an accessory, as will be detailed by the following. More precisely, the main body 1 has a shape of revolution around the first axis P-P', in particular a cylindrical shape. This makes it possible to combine the ergonomic and reception functions of the different components, as explained previously.
  • the main body 1 comprises a handle 11 intended to be grasped by the user. Thus, it is through this handle 11 that the user can easily grasp the main body 1 and manipulate the hairdressing appliance.
  • the handle 11 is part of the main body 1 and is formed by a zone of reduced diameter of the main body 1 in order to facilitate its grip by the user's hand.
  • the handle 11 and the main body 1 both extend along the first axis P-P', preferably being coaxial.
  • the main body 1 comprises a first control device 111 designed to control the air moving device and the air heating device. More precisely, the first control device 111 is a sliding button with several positions, four in this case: an off position, a cold air blowing position (that is to say that the heating device of the air is not activated, only the air movement device being activated), a position corresponding to an intermediate level of heating and air flow (i.e. the heating device and the air moving device are not at full power) and a position corresponding to a maximum level of heating and air flow (i.e. the heating device and the device air movement are at full power).
  • an off position that is to say that the heating device of the air is not activated, only the air movement device being activated
  • a position corresponding to an intermediate level of heating and air flow i.e. the heating device and the air moving device are not at full power
  • a position corresponding to a maximum level of heating and air flow i.e. the heating device and the device air movement are at full power.
  • the main body 1 is connected to a power cord 3 so as to provide adequate energy to the various components of the hairdressing appliance, in particular the device for moving the air or the air heating device.
  • the power cord 3 is in this case an electrical cord making it possible to supply the components with electrical energy but one could imagine other types of power cords, such as for example a pneumatic cord for supplying air to pneumatic components .
  • the hairdressing appliance is powered by an internal source (a battery for example), so that it would then have no power cord 3.
  • the hairdressing device also includes an accessory 2 intended to come into contact with the hair to shape it.
  • the accessory is removable, as can be seen in the Figure 7 .
  • the accessory 2 comprises a contact surface 21 intended to serve as a hair winding surface. More precisely, the contact surface 21 is a surface of revolution, and in particular a cylindrical surface so as to optimize the winding of the hair on the latter. Such a contact surface 21 makes it possible to create curls or waves or even a “brushing” effect on the hair.
  • the contact surface 21 is made of a material which is a good thermal conductor (such as steel or aluminum for example) in order to diffuse the heat from the air towards the hair. This helps to secure the styling of the hair.
  • the accessory 2 extends longitudinally along a second axis A-A', as can be seen on the figures 6 and 7 . More precisely, the accessory 2 has a form of revolution around the second axis A-A'. Accessory 2 is hollow.
  • the accessory 2 also includes an air outlet 24.
  • the air outlet 24 then comprises a plurality of holes as can be seen on the figures 1 to 6 . Said plurality of holes is then regularly distributed over the contact surface 21, in particular by being arranged in the form of rows between the pins 23. This makes it possible to properly diffuse the air extracted from the hairdressing appliance inside the hair, gently and evenly.
  • the diameter of each of the holes of the air outlet 24 decreases according to the direction of the air flow, that is to say decreasing from the main body 1 towards the free end of the accessory 2. This contributes to maintain a relatively constant flow of air emitted despite the increasing distance from the air inlet 110.
  • the accessory 2 includes a gripping tip 22 intended to be grasped by the user when using the hairdressing appliance.
  • Said gripping tip 22 is made of insulating material so as not to transmit the heat from the accessory 2 to the user's fingers.
  • the gripping tip 22 can be mounted to rotate freely relative to the accessory 2 in order to remain stationary in the user's fingers despite the rotation of the accessory 2. This makes it possible to improve the comfort of use of the the device but also the precision of the styling operation.
  • the gripping end 22 also allows the assembly and disassembly operations of the accessory, as is known as such.
  • the hairdressing appliance also comprises a motor for driving the accessory 2 in rotation around said second axis A-A' so that the hair can be wound around said accessory 2. More precisely the motor is an electric motor, as is clearly known as such.
  • the motor for driving the accessory 2 in rotation is located inside said accessory 2.
  • the motor for rotating the accessory 2 is offset from the main body 1: the motor for driving it in rotation rotation the accessory 2 is located outside the main body 1.
  • the hairdressing appliance comprises a first motor inside the main body 1 (the drive motor of the air moving device) and a motor inside of accessory 2 (the rotation drive motor of the latter). The ergonomics and comfort of use of the hairdressing device are therefore improved.
  • the hairdressing appliance comprises an accessory support 4 which itself includes the motor to rotate the accessory 2.

  • the free position is an unstable position while the locked position is a stable position.
  • the joint 12 is blocked, which prevents any unwanted movement of the latter, and therefore any unwanted movement of the accessory 2 relative to the main body 1.
  • the elastic return device ensures automatic blocking of the joint 12 in one or other of the first or second positions as soon as the lug 1232 arrives opposite one or the other of the first notch 1233 or second notch 1234, that is to say as soon as the articulation 12 arrives in one or the other of the first or second position, that is to say as soon as the accessory 2 arrives in the 'either of the first or second position.
  • This makes using joint 12 more intuitive.
  • the joint 12 comprises an air channel 124 designed to allow the air flow to pass from the air inlet 110 to the air outlet 24, the air being set in motion by the setting device. air movement, as explained previously.
  • the air channel 124 comprises a tube 1241 which delimits said first planes 1211 and second plane 1221.
  • the air channel 124 comprises a plurality of walls 1242, arranged radially inside the tube 1241. Said plurality of walls 1242 thus forms different channels which make it possible to properly direct the air flow, in particular in a longitudinal direction.
  • the walls 1242 make it possible in particular to reduce, or even eliminate, the rotating or swirling component of the air flow leaving the air movement device.
  • the accessory support 4 is oriented along the second axis A-A', that is to say it forms an angle with respect to the main body 1.
  • each of the first and second positions allows the rotation of the accessory 2 by the motor driving the rotation of the accessory arranged at the inside the accessory holder 4.
  • the joint 12 is designed to be movable between exactly two positions: the first position or the second position. Consequently, the accessory 2 is movable between exactly the first position and the second position.
  • the accessory 2 is designed to operate normally, that is to say be able to be rotated by the accessory drive motor, only in these two positions. This makes it possible to limit the number of scenarios for using the hairdressing device, which simplifies the use of the device for the user while providing an ergonomic device. This also limits the costs of designing and manufacturing the hairdressing device.
  • accessory 2 could evolve between three, four, five or a plurality of different positions, each of them allowing the rotation of the accessory 2 around the second axis A-A'.
  • accessory 2 could move between, not different predefined positions, but an infinity of positions, that is to say that accessory 2 could operate in any position. This will for example be possible with a flexible joint, including for example a cardan joint.
