Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a foldable and freehand type hair dryer.

[Conventional technology]

As this kind of hair dryer, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 56-
As described in Japanese Patent No. 104195, a dryer main body having a heater and a blower built in is pivotally attached in a vertical direction so that the dryer main body can be switched between a folding posture in which it is overlaid on a base and a standing posture. is there. According to this, by placing a base on a table or floor (hereinafter simply referred to as a table), and raising the dryer body from this base at a desired angle, both hands can be freely used when drying or setting hair. It is convenient because it can be used in a comfortable position. Also, when not in use, the dryer body can be stored in a compact and compact folded state by stacking it on the base.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

However, in the above-mentioned hair dryer, when the dryer body is raised from the base, the outlet on the front end side of the dryer body faces upward, so that the wind can only be blown onto the hair from below in desktop use.

It's not without a hair dryer that can apply wind to your hair from above. For example, as shown in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 61-86104, a wall-mounted type, or as shown in Japanese Utility Model Publication Nos. 50-24388 and 52-66583, a stand type type. According to this, the wind can be blown onto the hair from above. By applying wind to the hair from above, it is particularly easy to dry and set the crown and occipital region.

However, these wall-mounted or stand-type hair dryers can only be used where there are walls, and because the stand is bulky, it is a foldable and free-hand type hair dryer that is used on the table. There are disadvantages in comparison.

The present invention is a foldable and free-hand type hair dryer as described above, which allows both hands to be used and ensures compactness. In addition to applying it to the hair from below, the purpose is to apply the wind to the hair from above so that the time taken to dry the entire hair can be shortened.

[Means for solving the problem]

A hair dryer which is a premise of the present invention, for example, as shown in FIG. 1, has a built-in heater 5 and a blower 9, and a dryer body 1 having an outlet 10 at a front end side, and a dryer body 1 that supports the dryer body 1. The dryer main body 1 has the rear end side of the dryer main body 1 so that the dryer main body 1 can be switched between a folded position in which the upper surface of the base 2 is overlapped with the base 2 and a rising position. A first mounting surface 14 for mounting on a table is formed on the lower surface of the base 2 so as to be pivotally attached to the rear end side in a vertically rotatable manner around a shaft 19.

Then, an upward projecting portion 13 is projected upward from a front end portion of the base 2 that projects further forward than the front end of the dryer main body 1 in the folded state, and the front end surface of the upper projecting portion 13 and the base 2 A second mounting surface 16 for mounting on a table is formed by the front end surface.

[Action]

By stacking the dryer body 1 on the base 2, a compact and compact folded state can be obtained.

Both hands can be used freely by placing the base 2 on the table and using it.

When the dryer body 1 is raised in a use state in which the first mounting surface 14 of the base 2 is placed on a table and laid down, the outlet 10 is in an upward posture, and the wind can be blown from below onto the hair. Become.

In a state of use in which the second mounting surface 16 of the base 2 is placed on a table and raised, when the dryer main body 1 is raised, the blower outlet 10 is in a downward posture, and the wind blows from above onto the hair, especially from below. When it is sprayed, it is easy to spray the hair on the hair on the crown or occipital region, which is difficult to dry quickly.

[Effect of device]

According to the hair dryer of the present invention, the first mounting surface of the base 2 is
By changing the mounting posture on the table with two surfaces, 14 and the second mounting surface 16, the two ways of applying the wind to the hair from below and the application of the air from above can be applied to the dry area of the hair. The entire hair can be efficiently dried in a short time because it can be taken arbitrarily.

Particularly, since the second mounting surface 16 is formed by the front end surface of the upper base 13 and the front end surface of the base 2 by projecting the upper projection 13 upward from the front end of the base 2. The portion of the base 2 on which the dryer body 1 is overlapped is formed thin in the vertical height direction to ensure a compact folded state.
The effective mounting area of the mounting surface 16 can be increased, and the mounting surface 16 can be stably stood on the table.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of a hair dryer according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

1 and 2, 1 is a dryer main body, 2
Is a base. The dryer body 1 accommodates a heater 5 and a fan 6 and a blower 9 composed of a motor 7 for driving the fan 5 inside the body case 3 in the shape of a flat rectangular tube, and the blower 9 is installed on the front end side thereof. Outlet 10 and suction port 11 on the rear end side
Are provided respectively.

The base 2 is formed to be a little longer than the front-rear length of the main body case 3 in the front direction and is formed into a flat rectangular tube shape having a width dimension substantially the same as the left-right width of the main body case 3, and the base main body. The upper part 12 has a hollow upper projecting part 13 which projects upward from the front end part thereof at a substantially right angle, and is formed in an L shape as a whole. The projecting height of the upper projecting portion 13 from the upper surface of the base body 12 is set to be approximately the same as the vertical thickness of the dryer body 1.

Then, the lower surface of the base body 12 is formed flat and is formed as a first mounting surface 14 that can be mounted on a table. This first mounting surface
14 is provided with a wall hanging portion 15 such as a hole so that it can be hung on a wall. The front end surface of the base 2 and the front end surface of the upward protruding portion 13 are formed to be flat and flush with each other, and are also formed on the second mounting surface 16 that can be mounted on a table.

A joint portion 17 is provided on the rear end side of the dryer body 1 so as to project downward, and the joint portion 17 is pivotally attached to the rear end portion of the base 2 with a shaft 19 so as to be vertically rotatable. Therefore, by rotating the dryer main body 1 around the shaft 19, the base main body of the base 2 is rotated.
It is possible to switch between a folding posture in which the upper surface of 12 is overlaid in parallel and a posture in which the base body 12 is raised. In the folded posture of the dryer body 1, the blower outlet 10 is closed by the upward protruding portion 13. However, the dryer body 1
A moderation means (not shown) capable of stopping and holding the dryer main body 1 at an arbitrary angle is provided at a pivotally connecting portion between the base 2 and the base 2.

On the rear side of the upper protruding portion 13 of the base 2, a power switch 20,
An air flow rate change switch 21, a rapid cooling switch 22, a temperature control switch 23, etc. are mounted and wired to the heater 5 and the motor 7.

According to the hair dryer having the above-described structure, as shown in FIG. 3, when the first placing surface 14 is placed on a table and laid down, the dryer body 1 is raised at a desired angle, so that the outlet is formed.
A use condition is obtained in which the wind is blown from below onto the hair with 10 facing up.

Further, as shown in FIG. 4, when the second placing surface 16 is placed on a table and stood upright, the dryer body 1 is raised at a desired angle so that the outlet 10 can be changed downward so that the wind blows on the hair. A use condition that can be sprayed from above is obtained.

By hanging the first mounting surface 14 on the wall as shown in FIG. 5, the air can be blown from above onto the hair with the outlet 10 facing downward.
