FIG. 1 shows a state where the air deflector 12 is removed from the hair dryer 10, and FIG. 2 shows a state where the air deflector 12 is attached to the hair dryer 10.

  The hair dryer 10 has an air inlet 14 and an air outlet 16, an air passage (not shown) is formed between them, and air is drawn into the air passage from the outside via the air inlet 14. It is formed so as to blow out from the air outlet 16.

In order to propel the air flow at this time, an electrically operated air flow generator (for example, a fan) is provided inside the air passage. In addition, a heating element (eg, a heating filament) is provided downstream of the air flow generator in the air passage, and during operation, the heating element is air that enters the air passage to dry or heat the hair. Increase the temperature.
Further, the hair dryer 10 includes ON / OFF of the hair dryer 10, the operating speed of the air flow generator (the flow rate of air exiting from the air outlet 16), and the temperature of the heating element (the air flow blown out from the air outlet 16. A plurality of buttons 18a, 18b, 18c for controlling the temperature) and the like are provided.

The air deflector 12 has an air inlet 20 formed at one longitudinal end, an air outlet 22 provided at the opposite longitudinal end, and an air passage (not shown) formed therebetween. Yes.
A screw portion for removably screwing with the air outlet 16 of the hair dryer 10 is formed at the longitudinal end of the air deflector 12 having the air inlet 20.
With this configuration, air that has exited from the air outlet 16 of the hair dryer 10 enters the air inlet 20 of the air deflector 12.
In addition, as another attachment / detachment structure with respect to the hair dryer 10 of the air deflector 12, a pressure fitting structure or a friction fitting structure is also possible, for example.

3 to 16 show the air deflector 12 according to the first embodiment.
As shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, the air deflector 12 includes a substantially cylindrical housing 24 and a switch 26, and a swing nozzle 28 is provided in an air flow path formed inside the housing 24. .

7 to 12 show the swing nozzle 28.
As shown in FIG. 12, the swing nozzle 28 has an air inlet 30 formed at one longitudinal end thereof, and an air outlet 32 formed at the opposite longitudinal end thereof. An air passage 34 is formed.

The structure of the swing nozzle 28 will be described below.
The area of the air outlet 32 is smaller than the area of the air inlet 30.
When the oscillating nozzle 28 is assembled in the housing 24, the oscillating nozzle LL can be oscillated around the oscillating axis LL, and the oscillating axis LL is fixed to the housing 24.
Also, as shown in FIG. 8, the right side portion 36 of the swing nozzle 28 is formed thicker than the left side portion 38 (according to the positional relationship of FIG. 8), so the weight of the swing nozzle 28 is shown in FIG. It is distributed asymmetrically with respect to the longitudinal plane including the central longitudinal axis AA and the swing axis LL shown in FIG. In other words, the center of gravity of the swing nozzle 28 exists at a position away from the longitudinal plane including the central longitudinal axis AA and the swing axis LL. More specifically, the center of gravity of the swing nozzle 28 is on the right side of the longitudinal plane that includes the central longitudinal axis AA and the swing axis LL.
Also, two narrow rims 40 are formed along the inner edge of the air outlet 32 of the swing nozzle 28, both of which protrude inwardly toward the central longitudinal axis AA of the swing nozzle 28. ing.

  As shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, the swing nozzle 28 is centered about the swing axis LL within the range of the housing 24 and within an angle of less than 180 degrees when incorporated in the housing 24. It is pivotally attached to the housing 24 so as to swing.

As shown more clearly in FIGS. 15 and 16, the air deflector 12 includes a housing 24 having a front cover 42, a body 44, and a rear end portion 46 having a common central longitudinal axis MM. Have.
The oscillating nozzle 28 includes two pins 48 and 50 disposed on both sides in the diametrical direction. The pin 48 is received in the upper hole 52 of the main body 44, and the pin 50 is received in the lower hole 53 (see FIG. 16). See).
Therefore, the swing nozzle 28 can swing freely with respect to the main body 44 of the housing 24 around the axis LL connecting the pins 48 and 50.

  In operation, when the air deflector 12 is attached to the air outlet 16 of the hair dryer 10, the air (heated or unheated) exiting from the air outlet 16 of the hair dryer 10 is swung from the air inlet 20 of the air deflector 12 to the swing nozzle 28. Of the air deflector 12, exits the air outlet 32 through the air passage 34, and is discharged from the air outlet 22 of the air deflector 12.

The flow of air from the air inlet 30 to the air outlet 32 of the swing nozzle 28 (that is, passing through the swing nozzle 28) causes the swing nozzle 28 to swing around the axis L-L. It is possible to continuously change the direction of the air exiting from the oscillating nozzle 28 and thus the direction of the air exiting from the air deflector 12.

Due to the fact that the weight of the oscillating nozzle 28 is distributed asymmetrically with respect to the longitudinal plane including the central longitudinal axis AA and the oscillating axis LL, even when the oscillating nozzle 28 is in the center position, Since the reaction force of air colliding with the inner surface of the swing nozzle 28 is not balanced, the continuous swing motion of the swing nozzle 28 is surely generated. The presence of two rims 40 along the inner edge of the air outlet 32 of the swing nozzle 28 enhances the swing motion.

As can be seen from FIG. 16, the rear end portion 46 includes an outer shell portion 64 and an inner funnel portion (funnel-like portion) 66 formed integrally with each other. The inner open end 67 of the funnel portion 66 is received in the swing nozzle 28 through the air inlet 30 of the swing nozzle 28. With this configuration, all the air from the hair dryer 10 enters the rear end portion 46 (and thus the housing 24 of the air deflector 12) through the funnel portion 66.
This means that all the air from the hair dryer 10 enters the oscillating nozzle 28 and causes the oscillating nozzle 28 to oscillate. All such air then exits the air outlet 32 of the swing nozzle 28 and is finally released from the air outlet 22 of the air deflector 12.

The switch 26 is slidable back and forth along a slot 54 on the outer surface 56 of the body 44 in a direction GG along the double arrow in FIG. 15 which is parallel to the central longitudinal axis MM of the housing 24. Yes.
The switch 26 is engaged with a wire spring 58 having a curved recess 60.
In operation, when the swing nozzle 28 is in the center position, the switch 26 can be moved, for example, manually by the user to push the spring 58, so that the protrusion extending upwardly from the swing nozzle 28 Since the swinging nozzle 28 can be prevented from swinging by engaging the recess 62 and the recess 60, the swinging nozzle 28 is locked even if air flows through the swinging nozzle 28.
Thereafter, the user can move the switch 26 away from the protrusion 62 to release the wire spring 58 from the protrusion 62, and then the lock of the swing nozzle 28 can be released and the inside of the swing nozzle can be released. When the air passes through, the swing nozzle can swing.

In the above description and related drawings, the air deflector 12 is engaged with the air outlet 16 of the hair dryer 10 with a configuration in which the swing axis LL of the swing nozzle 28 is vertical (in the positional relationship of FIG. 4). In this case, the swing nozzle 28 can swing horizontally (in the positional relationship of FIG. 4).
In another configuration, the air deflector 12 is connected to the air outlet 16 of the hair dryer 10 so that the swing axis LL of the swing nozzle 28 is rotated by 90 degrees (in the positional relationship of FIG. 4) and is horizontal. In this case, the swing nozzle 28 can swing up and down (in the positional relationship of FIG. 4).
In yet another configuration, the swing axis LL of the swing nozzle 28 is diagonal (in the positional relationship of FIG. 4) such that the swing nozzle 28 can swing diagonally (in the positional relationship of FIG. 4). May be.
In yet another configuration, the air deflector 12 includes a central longitudinal axis MM of the air deflector 12 that includes the central longitudinal axis MM of the air deflector 12 when engaged with the air outlet 16 of the hair dryer 10. May be freely rotatable with respect to the hair dryer 10 about an axis substantially parallel to the head, and the swivel nozzle 28 also rotates correspondingly.

17 to 26 show an air deflector 12a according to a second embodiment of the present invention.
The structure of the air deflector 12a is different from the air deflector 12 of the first embodiment in the following two points, and the other configurations are the same.

  One difference between the air deflector 12a and the air deflector 12 according to the first embodiment is that the housing 24a is attached within the range of the housing 24a and less than 180 degrees with respect to the housing 24a about the axis La-La. The left side portion 38a (in the positional relationship of FIG. 20) of the air outlet 32a of the swung nozzle 28a thus formed is thicker than the right side portion 36a.

Another important difference is in the locking mechanism.
As clearly shown in FIGS. 21 to 26, the switch 26a engaged with the air deflector 12a has a recess 70a facing the protrusion 62a of the swing nozzle 28a fixed to the swing nozzle 28a. A lock plate 68a is provided.

21, FIG. 22, FIG. 25, and FIG. 26 show the state in which the switch 26a is in the outer position, in which the protrusion 62a of the swing nozzle 28a does not engage with the recess 70a of the lock plate 68a. .
When the switch 26a is in the unlocked position, the swing nozzle 28a swings around the axis La-La in the housing 24a when air passes through the inside.

When the switch 26a is moved to the inner lock position toward the swing nozzle 28a when the swing nozzle 28a is in the center position, the protrusion 62a is received in the recess 70a.
In such a state, the swing nozzle 28a cannot swing around the axis La-La with respect to the housing 24a even if air is passed through the inside.

  In the first and second embodiments described above, the weights of the swing nozzles 28 and 28a are distributed asymmetrically with respect to the longitudinal plane including the central longitudinal axis AA and the swing axes LL and La-La. This effect is achieved by making one side of the swing nozzles 28, 28a thicker than the other side. It is conceivable that such an effect can be brought about as follows.

The oscillating nozzle is formed by joining two body halves, which have a symmetrical profile but are made of different density materials. The swing nozzle so formed has a profile that is symmetrical with respect to its central longitudinal axis and a longitudinal plane that includes the swing axis, but its center of gravity is directed towards the body half formed of a higher density material. Located away from the lever plane.
The outline of the oscillating nozzle is symmetrical with respect to the central longitudinal axis and the longitudinal plane including the oscillating axis, but a portion of the material on one side of the oscillating nozzle is removed, resulting in the center of gravity of the oscillating nozzle. Is located away from this plane towards the side of the body from which the material has not been removed.

27 to 29 are sectional views of the air deflectors 12 and 12a. FIG. 27 shows the swing nozzles 28 and 28a in the leftmost position, and FIG. 28 shows the swing nozzles 28 and 28a in the center position. FIG. 29 shows the swing nozzles 28, 28a in the rightmost position.
When air is allowed to flow from the hair dryer 10 through the swing nozzles 28 and 28a, the swing nozzles 28 and 28a swing around the axis La-La, and arrows T in FIGS. 27, 28, and 29 respectively. , S and R, the direction of the air exiting from the air deflectors 12 and 12a is continuously changed.
The air coming out of the air deflectors 12 and 12a (and thus coming out of the hair dryer 10) can affect a large area and a wide angle as compared with the case where the air deflectors 12 and 12a are not attached.

In order to evaluate the performance of an electric hair dryer fitted with an air deflector according to the present invention, an experiment on the number of swings was performed using the following basic experimental parameters:
Input Voltage: 220 Volts Output Wattage / Full Output: 1875 Watt The hair dryer has a high speed operation mode and a low speed operation mode.

Given that the air deflector's swinging motion is very fast, the user does not feel a pulse of airflow from the hair dryer, and the user has a uniform temperature continuum over a larger area than the hair dryer alone without the air deflector. You can feel the air flow.

  In the present invention, the air deflector provided with the swing nozzle in the air passage has been described as the first embodiment and the second embodiment corresponding to the first aspect. However, the present invention corresponds to the second aspect in that the air passage is provided. It can also be applied to a hair dryer provided with a swivel nozzle.

Although the embodiment of the hair dryer of the present invention is omitted, the configuration thereof is the same as that of the air deflector of the present invention, and air is drawn in through the air suction port and the air blowout port formed with an air passage therebetween, and the air suction port. An air flow generator for discharging air through the air outlet and a swing nozzle provided downstream of the air flow generator in the air passage are provided.
The oscillating nozzle includes an air inlet and an air outlet, the air inlet configured to receive all or at least a portion of the air flowing from the air flow generator (and thus from the air inlet) into the air passage. The outlet allows the air received by the air inlet to exit.
The swing nozzle continuously changes the direction of air exiting the swing nozzle (and thus from the hair dryer) by swinging in the passage relative to the passage within an angle of less than 180 degrees about the swing axis. So that it is axially attached.
The swing nozzle is preferably disposed near the air outlet.
All other features of the air deflector described above (eg, lock / unlock mechanism, swing nozzle shape and structure, and alternative orientation of the swing nozzle relative to the hair treatment device) are incorporated into this configuration. Also good. The swing nozzle is freely rotatable with respect to the passage about an axis substantially parallel to the central longitudinal axis AA of the swing nozzle including the central longitudinal axis AA of the swing nozzle. Also good.

It should be understood that the foregoing description is only illustrative of embodiments for carrying out the invention, and that various modifications and / or changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.
It should also be understood that certain features of the invention described with respect to separate embodiments for clarity may be provided in combination within a single embodiment. Conversely, various features of the invention described with respect to a single embodiment for the sake of brevity may be provided separately or in any suitable combination including portions thereof. .

These powders are blended so as to emit far infrared rays having a wavelength suitable for absorption of hair and scalp.

Multi-element minerals refer to minerals containing silicon as a main component and containing a large number of elements in a balanced manner, such as pearlite, pine sebite, and tourmaline (tourmaline). When this is applied to the hair as warm or cold air, the moisture in the hair is mineralized and the protein in the hair is activated.
For example, the multi-element mineral is formed by pulverizing nacre with a ball mill or the like to form a multi-element mineral mineral powder. In this case, the pulverization value is preferably 1 to 3 microns, but the value may vary.
It is preferable to use two or more kinds of multi-element mineral mineral powders as appropriate. This multi-element mineral mineral powder may be used as it is, or after mixing it with water and heating or pressurizing, the supernatant liquid may be powdered by vacuum freeze drying or spray drying.
Pearlite is composed of the components shown in Table 1 below.

Accordingly, the air flow emitted from the air outlet 22 of the air deflector 12 or the air outlet 16 of the hair dryer 10 is emitted from the ceramic coating layer provided on the surface while passing through the swing nozzles 28 and 28a. The effect and electromagnetic wave effect are received as a whole.
