Abstract

PURPOSE:To connect a nozzle to a main body firmly. CONSTITUTION:In a hair dryer with a nozzle 3 fitted on an air discharging port on a main-body tip surface, rotatably around an axis, an engaging section for a hook 35 projected from the nozzle 3, to be slidably engaged with is formed on the internal, surface of the air discharging port of a main body, and a shell body 7 for retaining the internal side of the hook 35 is set in the main body, and in the shell body 7, a heater surrounding frame 60 is retained.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a hair dryer, and more particularly to a hair dryer in which a nozzle is rotatably arranged at the air outlet of the tip of the main body.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In rotatably arranging a nozzle at an air outlet of a hair dryer body, a hook projecting from a rear end surface of the nozzle is elastically attached to an engaging portion formed on the inner surface of the body air outlet. It was done by combining them.

[0003]

In this case, although there is no problem in normal use, a holder is provided on the wall and the tip side of the main body is inserted into this holder in order to improve the storability of the hair dryer. When it is possible to hang the hair dryer through the nozzle, the nozzle in the hair dryer is disengaged when it is attached to or detached from the holder because the nozzle is only connected to the main body by the elastic engagement force of the hook. There is a risk.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a hair dryer capable of reliably connecting the nozzle to the main body.

[0005]

According to the present invention, however, in a hair dryer in which a nozzle is attached to an air outlet of a tip end surface of a main body so as to freely rotate around an axis, a hook projecting from the nozzle slides. A feature is that an engaging portion that freely engages is formed on the inner surface of the air outlet of the main body, a cylinder that holds the inside of the hook is arranged in the main body, and a heater surrounding frame is held in the cylinder. Have

According to the present invention, since the tubular body prevents the elastic deformation of the hook, the nozzle does not come off from the main body.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the illustrated embodiment. In this hair dryer, as shown in FIG. The handle 2 from the bottom of the rear end of the body 1
And the nozzle 3 here is the main body 1
A state in which the outer nozzle 31 is rotatable with respect to the outer nozzle 31 and the inner nozzle 32 is slidably housed in the outer nozzle 32. The inner nozzle 32 is housed in the outer nozzle 31 shown in the figure. Then, not only the air is discharged from the tip opening of the inner nozzle 32, but also the outer nozzle 3
Air is also discharged from between the inner surface of the inner nozzle 32 and the outer surface of the inner nozzle 32, and when the inner nozzle 32 is projected by sliding the inner nozzle 32 by grasping the operator 33, only from the tip opening of the inner nozzle 32, It is designed to blow out wind. In the figure, 21 is a power switch arranged on the handle 2, and 23 is a wall hook attached to the back of the handle 2.

This hair dryer can be attached to a holder 4 attached to a wall surface. The holder 4 here is provided with an annular portion 40 into which the nozzle 3 of the hair dryer fits, an hanger 41 on the front surface, and support portions 42 for preventing left and right shakes on both sides of the lower end. In addition to the state in which the nozzle 3 shown in FIG. 3 is fitted in the annular portion 40 and the handle 2 is located between the pair of support portions 42, 42, the hair is also obtained when the wall hanging hook 23 is hooked on the hanger 41. The dryer can be held. Reference numeral 44 in FIG. 3 denotes an outlet arranged on the side surface of the holder 4. The power supply to the hair dryer is performed from the holder 4 through the power line 46.

The main body 1 and the handle 2 have an outer shell formed by a housing 11 shown in FIG. 4 and a lid 12 shown in FIG. Is the assembly 6 shown in FIG.
And a cylindrical body 7 shown in FIG. The assembly 6 is provided with a heater surrounded by a heater enclosing frame 60 in the front part thereof, a fan 61 driven by a motor incorporated in the rear part, and a rectifying blade casing 62 in the rear part thereof. The rear end side is covered with a lid 12 that is accommodated through the lid 12 and is provided with a suction port 13.

Here, the cylindrical body 7 located between the outer circumference of the heater enclosing frame 60 and the inner surface of the housing 11 is provided with an annular groove 70 at the tip end surface thereof. When arranged, the hook 35 projecting from the rear end of the outer nozzle 31 and elastically engaged with the inner surface of the air outlet at the tip of the housing 11 of the main body 1 fits in the groove 70 as shown in FIG. And because of this hook 35
The cylinder 7 prevents the elastic deformation of the cylinder 7 inward. Therefore, the nozzle 3 is prevented from coming off while the rotatable connection state with the main body 1 is maintained.

[0011]

As described above, according to the present invention, since the cylindrical body for holding the inside of the hook for connection with the main body protruding from the nozzle is arranged in the main body, the elastic deformation of the hook is prevented. The nozzle is prevented from coming off by being blocked by the tubular body, so the nozzle does not come off, and since the tubular body here holds the heater surrounding frame, the heat of the heater The presence of both the heater enclosing frame and the cylindrical body makes it difficult to transmit to the outer surface of the main body.
