The locking portion 142 engages with a locked portion 112 provided in the main body portion 11, so that the frame 12 can be attached to and detached from the main body portion 11. The locked portion 112 of the main body 11 is provided in a release portion 111 that is elastically biased toward the outer side. When the user presses the release portion 111 inward, The engagement state of can be released.

  The said hair removal part 3 removes hair by cut | disconnecting the hair which grew from the biological body surface, and the hair removal part 3 of this embodiment is the trimmer blade 30 and the drive device 32 which drives this trimmer blade 30. Is provided.

  The trimmer blade 30 includes a comb blade-shaped fixed blade and a movable blade, a trimmer cover 303, a trimmer base 304, and a spring that elastically biases the movable blade toward the fixed blade. In this case, it is assumed that the movable blade is located closer to the living body surface than the fixed blade.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the trimmer base 304 is formed vertically long along the side surface of the frame 12, and includes a connecting piece 305 that is connected and fixed to the operating portion 311 that protrudes from the lever 31. And a driving piece 306 provided at substantially the center in the longitudinal direction of the trimmer blade 30 and having an upper end coupled to the movable blade.

  The connecting piece 305 of this embodiment has a long hole 307 that is long in the vertical direction, and a float arranged between the lower end of the connecting piece 305 and a spring receiver 309 (see FIG. 6) formed on the inner surface of the frame 12. A spring 308 is in contact. For this purpose, the trimmer base 304 is biased upward by the float spring 308.

  The drive piece 306 includes a bifurcated portion that opens downward on one side, and a drive pin 325 (described later) of the drive device 32 is engaged therewith. The drive piece 306 configured to swing in the direction parallel to the longitudinal direction of the trimmer blade 30 reciprocates the movable blade in the longitudinal direction as the drive pin 325 swings by the drive device 32.

  The lever 31 engaged with the trimmer base 304 constitutes an operating means for moving the trimmer blade 30 up and down, and is attached to the lever mounting portion 20 of the frame 12 as described above. Then, the protruding actuating portion 311 protruding from the back surface of the lever 31 is connected to the connecting piece 305 of the trimmer base 304 through the communication hole 21 provided in the lever mounting portion 20 of the frame 12.

  Here, the connecting piece 305 of the trimmer base 304 is provided with a long hole 307 that is long in the vertical direction, and the operating portion 311 can move up and down in the long hole 307. On the other hand, since the trimmer base 304 is biased upward by the float spring 308 as described above, even when the lever 31 is in the upper position in the lever mounting portion 20, the operating portion 311 has a long hole 307 that is long vertically. It is in the state which touched the lower end of. When the trimmer blade 30 is pushed from above in this state, the trimmer blade 30 (trimmer base 304) sinks against the float spring 308 until the operating portion 311 contacts the upper end of the long hole 307. When the pushing of the trimmer blade 30 is released, the trimmer blade 30 returns upward due to the bias of the float spring 308.

  That is, the trimmer blade 30 can be freely floated by the spring force of the float spring 308, and the stroke of the float is defined in the range indicated by Fa in FIG.

  Even if the lever 31 is pulled down, the trimmer base 304 (trimmer blade 30) connected via the operating portion 311 is lowered, and if the operating portion 311 gets over the protrusion on the side wall of the communication hole 21. The trimmer blade 30 is held at the lowered position. At this time, the trimmer blade 30 is pulled down with a stroke S that exceeds the float stroke Fa, and the upper end of the trimmer blade 30 becomes substantially the same level as the upper end surface of the frame 12. This is based on the assumption that only the light irradiation is performed without operating the hair removal unit 3. For this reason, when the trimmer blade 30 is pulled down by operating the lever 31, the trimmer blade 30 is more than the above-mentioned float. At the same time, the trimmer base 304 turns off a hair removal section switch 55 described later, thereby stopping the driving device 32.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 5, the driving device 32 is provided between a motor 320 serving as a driving source, a rotating shaft of the motor 320, and a driving piece 306 of the trimmer base 304, and generates a driving force of the motor 320. It comprises a swing mechanism 321 that transmits to the drive piece 306, and a motor base 326 that holds them. The motor base unit 326 is fixed to the support base 51 fixed in the casing 10, and fixes the motor 320 inside the casing 10.

  The swing mechanism 321 includes an eccentric cam 322 fixed to the rotation shaft of the motor 320, and a substantially center is pivotally supported by the motor base 326 and is parallel to the longitudinal direction of the trimmer blade 30 by the eccentric cam 322. And a swing lever 323 that swings in the direction. The swing lever 323 has a cam connection portion 324 connected to the eccentric cam 322 and a drive pin 325 located on the opposite side of the cam connection portion 324. The drive pin 325 is connected to the drive piece 306 of the trimmer blade 30 as described above, and reciprocates the movable blade of the trimmer blade 30 by swinging around the central axis 327.

  The light irradiation unit 4 arranged adjacent to the hair removal unit 3 configured as described above has an effect of suppressing hair on the living body surface by irradiating the living body surface with light, and here, along the living body surface. Then, when the beauty device body 1 is moved, light irradiation is performed on the surface of the living body that is located on the rear side of the hair removal unit 3 in the moving direction and has just been removed by the hair removal unit 3.

  Next, the light irradiating unit 4 will be described in detail. The light irradiating unit 4 in the illustrated example has a light-shielding cylinder part 40 that is movable in the vertical direction, and a light-emitting body 44 that is housed in the light-shielding cylinder part 40 and inside. It is comprised with the irradiation unit part 42. FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the light shielding tube portion 40 includes guide protrusions 404 that fit into the guide grooves 181 of the frame 12 on the side surface, and is movable up and down with respect to the light irradiation portion mounting portion. Further, the light shielding cylinder portion 40 has an engaging portion 405 at its end face for preventing the removal by engaging with the engaged portion 19 provided on the frame 12.

  The light shielding cylinder part 40 prevents the light from the light emitting body 44 from leaking to the outside by pressing the upper surface of the light shielding cylinder part 40 against the surface of the living body and coming into close contact with the surface of the living body. It is attached to the part mounting part so as to be slidable in the vertical direction. Further, the light-shielding cylinder portion 40 is spring-biased upward, and also serves as a light emission switch that causes the light emitter 44 to emit light when it is pressed down against the surface of the living body and positioned at the lowest side (later Details).

  Furthermore, the light-shielding cylinder part 40 is formed in a rectangular tube shape having an irradiation opening in which a transparent member 41 is fitted on the upper side and having an opening on the lower side, and is configured by the transparent plate material having a high transmittance. The member 41 is positioned between the irradiation unit portion 42 and the living body surface, thereby preventing the irradiation unit portion 42 that becomes high temperature due to light emission of the light emitter 44 from coming into contact with the living body surface. The cut fuzz is prevented from adhering to the lens 48 of the irradiation unit section 42. Further, the light shielding cylinder portion 40 is provided with a ventilation communication port 403 penetrating inside and outside on the side surface. The ventilation communication port 403 is an opening for discharging the air sent from the blower fan 50 as the cooling device 5 to the outside.

  As shown in FIG. 9, the irradiation unit portion 42 includes a case portion 43 including a light emitter housing member 430 and a bottom member 431, a light emitter 44 housed in the case portion 43 and serving as a light source, and a light emitter 44. A unit composed of a reflector 45 that reflects and collects light emitted from the living body surface side, and a light source base 46 that holds the light emitter 44 and the reflector 45, between the reflector 45 and the light source base 46. An elastic member 47 that elastically holds the light emitter 44 and the reflector 45 is interposed.

  The light emitter housing member 430 has an irradiation window 433 through which light from the light emitter 44 passes and has a rectangular tube shape with an opening on the lower side, and the irradiation window 433 formed in a long rectangular shape has an opening. A transparent lens 48 for closing is provided. The lens 48 also has a function of an optical filter that cuts out light having an unnecessary wavelength such as ultraviolet light among the light emitted from the light emitter 44. The lens 48 is mounted above the light source base 46 and is irradiated with an irradiation window. 433 is installed in contact with the lower surface of the outer edge.

  Further, the light emitter housing member 430 has a ventilation opening 432 that penetrates the inside and outside of the case portion 43 at the outer edge of the irradiation window 433. The ventilation opening 432 formed as a slit-shaped opening along the longitudinal direction of the irradiation window 433 discharges air sent from the blower fan 50 from the case portion 43 into the light shielding cylinder portion 40.

  A bottom surface member 431 is installed in the lower opening of the light emitter housing member 430. The bottom surface member 431 closes the lower opening of the light emitter housing member 430 and has lattice-shaped communication holes 434 for introducing the air blown from the cooling device 5 into the case portion 43.

  In this example, the light emitter 44 that is a light source of the light irradiation unit 4 is constituted by a straight tube spherical xenon flash lamp. The light emitter 44 arranged so that its longitudinal direction is substantially parallel to the reciprocating direction of the movable blade is electrically connected to the power supply device 70, and the light shielding cylinder portion 40 is pushed downward to cause bottom death. When the point is reached, the irradiation switch 54 is turned on, and a high voltage is applied to irradiate pulsed light having a very short light emission time. Further, the light emitter 44 continues to emit pulsed light at a constant interval when the state where the light-shielding cylinder portion 40 moves downward and remains at the dead point is maintained.

  The reflector 45 having a substantially U-shaped cross section is arranged so that the opening thereof faces the irradiation window 433, reflects and collects light emitted from the light emitter 44 with high efficiency, and guides the light toward the irradiation window 433. To do.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the irradiation unit section 42 configured in this way is mounted and fixed to the light irradiation section mounting section in the frame 12. A gap is formed between the upper surface of the irradiation unit 42 and the back surface of the living body contact surface of the light-shielding cylinder portion 40 that is spring-biased upward in order to move the light-shielding cylinder portion 40 in the optical axis direction. The

  A cooling device 5 is provided below the light irradiation unit 4 so as to be adjacent to the light irradiation unit 4. The cooling device 5 for cooling the light irradiation unit 4 includes a blower fan 50 attached to a support base 51 fixed to the upper end of the main body 11. When the blower fan 50 is driven in a state where the frame 12 is mounted on the main body 11, the air introduced from the air supply port 110 provided on the side surface of the main body 11 passes through the blower fan 50 to the case. It flows from the communication hole 434 of the portion 43 to the ventilation opening 432. The air flowing at this time flows and exchanges heat while being in contact with the light emitting body 44 and the lens 48 that have reached a high temperature, and then passes through the light shielding cylindrical portion 40 via the ventilation opening 432 and passes through the light shielding cylindrical portion 40. Are vented to the outside through the ventilation communication port 403.

  As shown in FIG. 10, the support base 51 includes a base portion main body 52 and a cover portion 53 attached from above the base portion main body 52. The base portion main body 52 is a blower fan. The covering portion 53 is installed from above while accommodating 50. Thereby, the blower fan 50 is fixed to the support base 51.

  The base body 52 of the support base 51 includes a light irradiation switch 54 for causing the light emitter 44 of the light irradiation unit 4 to emit light, and a hair removal unit switch for stopping the driving of the movable blade of the hair removal unit 3. The circuit board 56 provided with 55 is installed.

  On the covering portion 53 of the support base 51, a pair of pressing pieces 57 for pressing the light shielding cylinder portion 40 upward is disposed. The pressing piece 57 includes an abutting portion 570 that abuts on the lower end of the pressing projection 406 of the light shielding cylinder portion 40, a switch pressing portion 571 that depresses the irradiation switch 54 when the abutting portion 570 is depressed downward, And a locking claw 572 for preventing the side from coming off. The coil spring 573 is biased upward. The coil spring 573 is a spring that keeps the light-shielding cylinder portion 40 in a float state.

  Further, a hair removal portion pressing piece 58 is arranged on the covering portion 53 of the support base 51. The depilation part pressing piece 58 is pushed down to the lower end of the trimmer base 304, thereby depressing the aforementioned depilation part switch 55. Similarly to the pressing piece 57, the hair removal part pressing piece 58 is urged upward by a coil spring 573.

  In this light irradiation type beauty device, the hair removal unit 3 (trimmer blade 30) and the light irradiation unit 4 (light shielding tube unit 40) positioned on the upper end surface of the beauty device main body 1 are pressed against the living body surface, and the trimmer blade 30 is pressed. Beauty treatment is performed by moving the beauty device body 1 along the surface of the living body toward the blade edge direction.

  Since the trimmer blade 30 and the light shielding cylinder part 40 are floatable independently as described above, the hair removal treatment by the hair removal part 3 and the light irradiation in a state where both are in contact with the surface of the living body. Processing. In particular, the irradiation switch 54 can be turned on in the state where the living body contact surface of the light shielding cylinder portion 40 is brought into contact with the surface of the living body and the light blocking effect is effectively applied.

  Here, in the present invention, not only the trimmer blade 30 and the light shielding tube portion 40 are floatable independently, but also the heights of the upper end surfaces of the light shielding tube portion 40 and the trimmer blade 30 in the normal state are shown in FIG. As shown in the drawing, the float stroke Fa of the trimmer blade 30 is made larger than the float stroke Fb of the light shielding cylinder 40, and the trimmer blade 30 sinks to a deeper position than the light shielding cylinder 40. I can do it. For this reason, in the present example in which light is emitted in a state where the light shielding cylinder portion 40 reaches the bottom dead center, the range of the float operation of the trimmer blade 30 is the bottom dead center (irradiation) of the float of the light shielding cylinder portion 40. The top dead center is on the upper side of the position where the switch 54 is turned on, and the bottom dead center is on the lower side. Along with this, the portion where the trimmer blade 30 contacts on the surface of the living body, and the light shielding cylinder portion 40 Even if the heights of the contacting parts are different, it is possible to keep both the trimmer blade 30 and the light shielding cylinder part 40 in contact with the surface of the living body.

  That is, when hair removal by the trimmer blade 30 and hair suppression by light irradiation without light leakage are simultaneously performed on a living body surface having an uneven surface like a fold, the angle at which the beauty device main body 1 is applied to the living body surface is made constant. Although it is difficult to keep, the trimmer blade 40 is independent of the light shielding cylinder 40 when the light shielding cylinder 40 is depressed by pressing the floatable light shielding cylinder 40 against the living body surface and the irradiation switch 54 is turned on. It is in a state in which hair removal can be performed while always in contact with the surface of the living body by the float operation. Therefore, the hair removal operation by the trimmer blade 30 and the hair suppression operation by the light irradiation of the light irradiation unit 4 can always be obtained reliably, and light leakage from the contact portion between the light irradiation unit 4 and the living body surface can be obtained. There is almost nothing.

  Further, in the beauty device main body 1 according to the present embodiment, the hair removal unit 3 is moved along the biological surface in a form that precedes the light irradiation unit 4, and the hair removal and the hair suppression by light irradiation are performed on the biological surface. However, in this case, it is also conceivable that the hair generated by being cut by the hair removal unit 3 enters the light irradiation unit 4 side. However, in this beauty device main body 1, the entry of hair dust into the light irradiation unit 4 is blocked by the hair hair entry preventing portion.

  That is, the fluff that the partition wall 16 provided between the hair removal unit 3 and the light irradiation unit 4 enters the attachment opening 151 for mounting the hair removal unit 3 is removed from the light irradiation unit 4 side in the frame. Stop entering. Moreover, both the hair removal part 3 and the light irradiation part 4 have protruded from the upper end surface 22 of the flame | frame, and while extending over the full length of the hair removal part 3 in the horizontal direction between them, the concave along the said hair removal part 3 is carried out. The place 61 exists. Accordingly, when the user moves the beauty device main body 1 while cutting the hair with the hair removal unit 3, hair dust enters the recess 61 located behind the hair removal unit 3 in the movement direction. And since the side surface by the side of the hair removal part 3 in the light-shielding cylinder part 40 becomes a weir, hair dust does not approach to the light irradiation part 4 side. Accordingly, the recess 61 also constitutes the fuzz entry prevention portion. As a result, in the light irradiation type beauty device of the present embodiment, it is possible to prevent the hair dust from adhering to the light irradiation unit 4 and scorching, or the hair dust from covering the light irradiation unit 4 and reducing the light amount. .

  The hair removal part 3 in this embodiment is composed of a trimmer blade 30 having a comb-shaped fixed blade and a movable blade, and the hair removal part 3 and the light irradiation part 4 can be arranged close to each other. The thickness in the direction across the hair removal unit 3 and the light irradiation unit 4 can be reduced, and the surface of the living body can be removed from the hair removal unit 3 and the light irradiation unit 4 even in complicated places such as wrinkles. This is because the hair removal part 3 is composed of a fixed blade (outer blade) formed as a mesh blade or a slit blade and a movable blade (inner blade) slidably in contact with the inner surface of the fixed blade. It may be.

  Further, in the light irradiation type beauty apparatus of the present embodiment, only the light shielding cylinder part 40 in the light irradiation part 4 is floatable, but the irradiation unit part 42 and the light shielding cylinder part 40 are floated integrally. May be. In any case, light can be emitted in a state where the light irradiation unit 4 is in close contact with the surface of the living body, light leakage can be reduced, and safety can be increased in addition to effective light irradiation. .

  Although an example using a xenon flash lamp as the light emitter 44 in the light irradiation unit 4 has been shown, the light emitter 44 is not limited to this.
