Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To suppress a slip of the hair in a hair iron to realize desired styling. SOLUTION: Frocking by electrostatic frocking is performed on exposed faces of a pair of plates 2 nipping hair in the hair iron opposingly attached to tip sides of a pair of arms 1 attaching a rear end turnably so as to open and close. By the plate 2 on which frocking is performed in this way, piles 8 of both plates 2 sink when nipping hair to support hair by wrapping whole hair and prevent hair from escaping, and a slip at the time of pressure-contact is suppressed so as to prevent hair from deviating in order to realize intended styling.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a hair iron used for styling hair.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art With the use of a hair iron, hair can be wound and stretched, freely arranged as desired, and hair can be easily styled.

As a typical hair iron, for example,
There are those as shown in FIGS.

FIG. 6 shows a pair of arms 1 which can be opened and closed by rotatably attaching rear ends thereof, and a pair of plates 2 which are attached to the front ends of the respective arms 1 so as to sandwich hair.
And a heater 3 for heating the plate 2. The hair is passed between the plates 2 heated by the heater 3, the arm 1 is closed, and the hair is styled by closing the arm. At this time, if a flat or corrugated material is used for the plate 2, for example, the hair can be made into straight hair or sauvage hair, and can be freely styled.

[0005] Further, the one shown in FIG. 7 is provided with a pipe bobbin 5 around which hair is wound, a clip 7 for holding the hair between a winding surface 6 of the pipe bobbin 5, and a heater 3 for heating the hair. Thus, the hair can be raised and a point curl can be created simply by wrapping the hair around the heated pipe bobbin 5 and pressing it with the clip 7.

In the above-mentioned hair iron, when the hair is pressed against the plate 2 or the clip 7, the hair escapes due to the waist or the hair (for example, natural curl). For this reason, the hair is "shifted" at the time of pressing. As a result, there was a problem that styling was not determined as expected.

[0007] One method for solving this problem is, for example, a plate 2, a clipping surface of a clip 7, or a pipe bobbin 5.
It is conceivable to form a non-slip such as small irregularities on the winding surface 6 of.

[0008]

However, as described above, in the method of forming a non-slip such as unevenness, the hair can be held so as not to slip due to the unevenness, but it is unnecessary for the hair due to the unevenness at the time of pressing. Bend, that is, "chure"
Will be given. This occurs even if the irregularities are reduced.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to make it possible to determine the styling without causing the hair to shift without giving unnecessary "chatter" to the hair.

[0010]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, according to the present invention, a pair of arms whose rear ends are rotatably mounted and which can be opened and closed, and are mounted opposite to the distal ends of the respective arms. In a hair iron provided with a pair of plates sandwiching hair and a heater for heating the plate, a configuration in which the exposed surface of the plate is subjected to flocking by electrostatic flocking is adopted.

By adopting such a configuration, the exposed surface of the plate is covered with a pile (short fibers, length of 0.3 to 1 mm) formed by electrostatic flocking. Supports the hair so that it sinks and wraps around the hair. This prevents the hair from escaping, causing the hair to slip
You can not.

At this time, since the pile sinks in and gently supports the hair, the hair does not have irregularities and does not have "chuckle".

Further, since the plate is covered with the pile in this way, for example, the skin of the head or hands does not directly touch the surface of the plate, so that a burn or the like can be prevented.

At this time, in a hair iron provided with a pipe bobbin around which hair is wound, a clip sandwiching the hair between the winding surface of the pipe bobbin, and a heater for heating the hair, the winding surface of the pipe bobbin In addition, a configuration in which the hair clipping process is applied to the clip by electrostatic flocking can also be adopted.

By employing such a configuration, the winding surface of the pipe bobbin and the clip are covered with a pile formed by electrostatic flocking, and when the hair is sandwiched, the winding surface and the pile of the clip sink and wrap the entire hair. So support. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the hair from escaping and prevent the hair from "shifting". At this time, since the pile sinks and supports the hair at this time, the hair does not have irregularities or the like, and does not have “chatter”.

In addition, since the winding surface of the pipe bobbin and the clip are covered with the pile, for example, the skin of the head and hands is not directly in contact with the pile, so that a burn or the like can be prevented.

[0017]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment.

The hair iron of this embodiment is of a type in which a plate 2 for holding hair is attached to the distal ends of a pair of arms 1 which can be opened and closed by rotatably attaching rear ends thereof. It is attached to the tip to sandwich the hair.

Further, in this hair iron, the heaters 3 for heating the plate 2 are incorporated in both arms 1 respectively.

The plate 2 shown in FIG. 1 is of a type having a flat holding surface, and has a surface processed by electrostatic flocking.

As is well known, surface treatment by electrostatic flocking is performed by using a charged pile (short fiber, here, 0.3 to 0.3 mm long).
6 or 6,6 nylon of about 1 mm) 8 is adsorbed on a substrate coated with an adhesive by a high electric field Coulomb force, and the adsorbed pile 8 is perpendicular to the substrate by the action of the high electric field. Plant and fix the root by heat treatment.

The plate 2 surface-treated in this way
When attached to the arm 1, the exposed portion (including the rising portion) from the arm 1 is in a state where electrostatic flocking has been performed.

This embodiment is configured as described above. In this hair iron, as shown in FIG. 2, when the hairs h are sandwiched between the plates 2, the piles 8 of both plates 2 sink and sink. The pile 8 is supported so as to wrap the hair h. Therefore, even if the hair h has a waist or a natural curl, the hair h can be held without being missed, and there is no “shift”. As a result, styling can be performed as expected. At this time, since the hair h is supported by the pile 8 made of the sinking soft short fiber, the hair h does not have irregularities or the like, and does not cause “chatter”.

Since the exposed surface of the plate 2 is covered with the pile 8, the surface of the plate 8 does not directly touch the surface of the scalp or fingers during use, and does not cause burns.

In the first embodiment, the plate 2 is described as being flat, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the plate 2 may be corrugated (this flocked plate 2 can prevent the hair h from "slurring" in the groove direction). The shape is not limited.

In the first embodiment, the heaters 3 for heating the plates 2 are provided on both the arms 1 respectively. However, the present invention is not limited to this. The heater 3 may be provided on one of the arms 2, and the shape of the arm 1 is not limited.

FIG. 4 shows a second embodiment.

The hair iron of this embodiment includes a pipe bobbin 5 around which hair is wound, and a clip 7 for holding the hair between a winding surface 6 of the pipe bobbin 5 and
As shown in FIG. 5, the clip 7 is formed in an arc shape along a winding surface (outer peripheral surface) 6 of the pipe bobbin 5. Also, the clipping process by electrostatic flocking is performed on the surface of the clip 7 which is sandwiched between the pipe bobbin 5 and the winding surface 6 as in the first embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 4, the clip 7 is attached to the handle 9 and is rotatably supported by a shaft 10. Further, a spring for urging the clip 7 to the winding surface 6 of the pipe bobbin 5 is attached to the shaft, and can be opened and closed by operating a lever 11.

On the other hand, the pipe bobbin 5 of this embodiment is similar to that of FIG.
5, the winding surface 6 is formed over the entire circumference, and the winding surface 6 is formed over the entire circumference.
In the same manner as in the first embodiment, flocking by electrostatic flocking is performed.

The pipe bobbin 5 has a built-in heater 3 so that the winding surface 6 can be heated.

This embodiment is configured as described above. When the clip 7 is opened and the hair is wound around the winding surface 6 of the pipe bobbin 5 and the clip 7 is closed, the clip 7
As a result, the pile 8 provided on the holding surface of the clip 7 and the winding surface of the pipe bobbin 5 sinks down and supports the hair h so as to surround the hair h as shown in FIG. For this reason, the supported hair h does not escape even when pressed with the clip 7, so that "slip" does not occur and styling can be performed as expected.

At this time, since the hair h is supported by the pile 8 made of soft short fibers that have sunk, the hair h
There is no generation of irregularities or the like, and no "chuckle" is generated.

Further, as shown in FIG.
Since the winding surface 6 is covered with the pile 8,
Does not directly touch the scalp or fingers, and does not cause burns.

In this embodiment, the heater 3 is provided only on the pipe bobbin 5 side. However, the present invention is not limited to this. The heater 3 may be provided on both the pipe bobbin 5 and the clip 7.

In this embodiment, the clip implantation is performed on the clamping surface of the pipe bobbin 5 with the winding surface 6, but the clip implantation is not limited to the clamping surface. The outer surface of the clip 7, that is, the entire surface may be subjected to flocking. In the case of the embodiment as well, this may be done. In particular, when the heater 3 is provided also on the clip 7 side, it is preferable to provide the heater 3 on the outer side as well, because it is possible to prevent burns.

Further, in the embodiment, the entirety of the pipe bobbin 5 around which the hair h is wound has been described as being heated. However, the present invention is not limited to this. It may be.

[0039]

According to the present invention, as described above, styling as intended can be performed while suppressing hair slippage.
