Description
The present invention relates to a device for styling hair, and in particular to a device for heating hair contained within a curl forming apparatus.
Background of the Invention
Known apparatus for imparting curls to sections of hair include heated curling irons, curling tongs and wands, most of which comprise a cylindrical heated element attached to a handle. To use these devices each section of hair to be curled is wound around the heated element and then removed, repeating the action on different section of hair around the head.
Rollers are also commonly used for curling hair. Rollers may be unheated or can be preheated before use. Heated rollers comprise a hollow cylindrical roller body which is heated before use. A section of hair is wrapped around the roller from starting at the end of the hair and rolling towards the scalp. The roller is then secured at the scalp and heat from the roller transfers to the hair wrapped around it as the roller cools. Heated rollers are typically quite heavy and there is always a risk that the user may burn their fingers when putting the rollers into the hair. In addition, rollers can generally only be used to wrap hair in one direction, that is from the end of the hair to the scalp, thereby producing only one type of curl.
CN2497602 describes conventional rollers which may be heated after application to the head. A hand held apparatus includes heating elements shaped to surround the roller and the hair on each roller is heated individually through contact with the heating elements.
It would be desirable to provide an improved apparatus for curling hair for use both in salon and home environments.

Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiments
Referring now to Figures la and lb, a hair styling device 10 includes first and second arms 12, 14. Each arm has a handle portion, 18, 20 which is coupled to a clamping portion 22, 24. The arms are coupled together via a hinge 16 at one end, adjacent the handle portions. The hinge 16 may be any type of hinge mechanism which biases apart the clamping portions 22, 24 of the two arms of the hair styling device into an open position, as illustrated in Figures la, lb, and 3a. A user can apply a squeezing force to the handle portions 18, 20 to push the clamping portions 22, 24 together, closing the hair styling device 12. Figure 3b illustrates the device 12 in a closed position.
The clamping portions 22, 24 include inner clamping surfaces 28, 30 which are shaped to receive a curl forming apparatus such as that described in WO2017/098282.
Figures 3a, 3b, 4a and 4b illustrate various cross-sectional views through the hair styling device 10. As shown in these figures, the upper clamping portion 22 includes a concave inner clamping surface 28, and the lower clamping portion 24 includes a convex shaped inner clamping surface 30.
As shown in Figure 4a, when the clamping portions 22, 24 are in a closed position the concave inner surface 28 of the upper clamping portion and the convex inner surface 30 of the lower clamping portion 24 are spaced apart by a distance labelled X.
Figures 5a, 5b and 5c illustrate an example of a curl forming apparatus or curler 32 that may be heated with the hair styling device of the invention. The curler 32 comprises two spaced apart side portions 40, 42 connected by a centrally located connector portion 34. The first side portion 40 is substantially flat in profile and the second side portion 42 is curved in shape. In this example, the first side portion 40 is provided with barrier members in the form of five elongate protrusions, or posts 44 which extend towards the second side portion 42, in substantially the same direction as the connector portion 34. The second side portion 42 is configured such that it has two fixed states. The first fixed state is illustrated in Figure 5a, where the second side portion 42 is convex in shape and curves away from the first side portion 40. This is the open configuration of the curler 32, and allows for hair to be wound around the connector portion 34. The second fixed state is illustrated in Figure 5c, whereby the second side portion 42 has been folded over so that it is now concave in shape and curves over the top of the connector portion 34 and the first side portion 40. This is the closed configuration of the curler 32, and allows hair wrapped around the connector portion 34 to be secured within the curler 32. The curler 32 is fabricated from a material which is both resilient and thermally conductive, and the connector portion 24 is preferably hollow, allowing the curler 32 to be compressed.
Figure 4b illustrates the curler 32 clamped between the two inner clamping surfaces 28, 30. The distance X between the upper and lower clamping surfaces 28, 30 allows the curler 32 to be accommodated between the clamping surfaces, but also ensures that the curler 32 is compressed between the clamping surfaces 28, 30 to heat the hair located within the curler 32 more efficiently. The separation distance X is therefore smaller than the length of the connector portion 34 of the curler 32. The posts 44 which bridge the gap between the first and second side portions 40, 42 of the curler 32 are also thermally conductive and in this embodiment, when the curler is compressed, these posts are in contact with the heated clamping surfaces, assisting the transfer of heat to the hair within the curler 32.
The hair styling device 10 includes a power cord 26 that extends out from the device 10 adjacent the hinge 16. The upper clamping portion 22 of the first arm 12 houses a heater element and the heater element heats the concave inner clamping surface 28 located on the inside of the upper clamping portion 22. The concave inner clamping surface 28 is fabricated from a thermally conductive material such as aluminium, steel, titanium, ceramic or other suitable materials. The upper clamping surface 28 may be ceramic coated, or tourmaline coated or teflon coated or coated with other suitable materials. The lower inner clamping surface 30 of the lower clamping portion 24 may also be heatable by a heater element which may be located within the lower clamping portion 24. The lower clamping surface 30 may be fabricated from similar materials as the upper clamping surface 28. The apparatus may include a controller which allows a user to control the temperature of one or both of the clamping surfaces 28, 30, preferably using a switch 36 located on one of the handle portions. Preferably the upper clamping surface 28 is heatable to a temperature of approximately 220°C. Preferably both the upper and lower clamping portions include insulation to prevent the external surfaces of the device 10 from becoming hot to the touch.
The lower clamping portion 24 may contact a user’s head during use so the lower clamping surface 30 may not be heated to avoid discomfort. Alternatively, the lower clamping surface 30 may be heated to a lower temperature than the upper clamping surface 28. The user may be able to select the temperature of the lower clamping surface 30 from a predetermined choice of three or more temperatures. For example the temperature of the lower clamping surface 30 may be altered by sliding a switch 36 or turning a dial (not shown) to a position corresponding with a desired temperature setting. Choices of temperature setting may be, for example, 0°C, 70°C, 100°C, 220°C.
Each of the clamping portions 22, 24 may be provided with a plurality of venting holes 38.
In use, several curl formers 32 are applied to the head by winding strands of hair around the central portion 34 of each curl former 32. Once the curl former 32 is in position, it is grasped by the device 10 and clamped between the two clamping portions 22, 24. The device 10 may include a timer which is initiated on closing the arms 12, 14 and clamping the clamping portions 22, 24 around the curl former 32. Preferably an audible alert is emitted after the curl former 32 has been heated for an optimum amount of time. This audible alert indicates that the curl former 32 held within the device has been heated sufficiently and should be released. Preferably the curl former 32 is heated to a temperature of around 100°C , and the hair within the curl former 32 to a temperature of around 80°C.
Curl formers 32 are only removed from the hair once they have cooled down and the curl has set, typically when the temperature of the curl former 32 is 30°C or less. Several curl formers 32 are 5 typically used on one head of hair, and each curl former 32 is heated individually using the hair styling device 10 of the invention.
