Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a hair dryer device that is used by being attached to a wall.

[Prior Art] A conventional hair dryer device of this type is shown in FIG. In FIG. 3, a hair dryer device 10
The device includes a casing 14 attached to a wall 12, and a hand unit 18 is connected to a hot air fan (not shown) installed in the casing 14 via a hose 16. This hand unit is secured to the side surface of the casing 14, for example. Reference numerals 10a and 10b indicate operation switches for hot air fans.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] In the above conventional hair dryer device, the device 10 is configured to protrude from the wall surface 12, so when using the hair dryer device or cleaning it, the person's head and Shoulders are likely to collide. Also, the room space becomes smaller due to the extension from the wall.

Furthermore, in the conventional hair dryer described above, the hand unit 18 must be held and used by hand, which is inconvenient in that one hand is occupied.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The drawer-type hair dryer device of the present invention is characterized in that the hot air blowing portion can be freely pulled out from the wall surface and can be stopped in the pulled-out position. It is.

[Function] In the hair dryer of the present invention, the hot air blowing portion can be retracted into the wall surface when not in use, so there is no risk of it hitting people's heads or shoulders. In addition, when in use, the hot air blowing section can be pulled out from the wall and stopped in the pulled out position to blow out hot air, leaving both hands free as there is no need to support it with your hands.

[Example] Examples will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a hair dryer device according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along the line - in FIG. Reference numeral 56 designates a flat, thin box that is pulled out from the recess 20, and has a hot air outlet 28 on its lower surface on its distal end side, and a hot air inlet 58 on its proximal end side. This inlet 58 is connected to the hot air fan 22 via the hose 34. Reference numerals 60 and 62 are guide rails for guiding the box 56;
is sandwiched between the guide rails 60 and 62 from above and below so that it can move forward and backward while maintaining its horizontal position. A handle 52 is provided at the front end of the box 56, and a magnet 64 is provided at the rear end.
The magnet 64 attracts an iron piece 66 provided on the back wall of the recess 20 to lock the box 56 in the retracted position. Further, a different magnet 68 is protruded from the rear end of the box 56.
is attracted to the iron piece 70 fixed to the side wall surface of the recess 20. The iron piece 70 is provided at a position where it comes into contact with the magnet 68 when the box 56 is pulled out to its forward limit, thereby stopping the box 56 at its forward limit. In this embodiment, the box 56 is stopped in the drawn-out position by the attraction between the magnet 68 and the iron piece 70.
The stopped position of the box 56 in the pulled-out position may be maintained by the frictional force between the box 56 and the guide rails 60 and 62.

Reference numeral 72 indicates a cover member that covers the front opening of the recess 20. A mirror 54 is provided on the front surface of this cover member 72 and in its lower area.

In the pull-out hair dryer device constructed in this manner, when the handle 52 is grasped and the box 56 is pulled toward the front, the air outlet 28 is pulled out from the wall surface 12. By operating the hot air fan 22, hot air can be blown out from the air outlet 28. After using the hair dryer, the hot air fan 22 is stopped and the box 56 is pushed in. This allows Box 5
6 assumes a retracted position within the wall surface 12. In this way, in this embodiment as well, the blowing part can be pulled out from the wall surface only when in use, and can be retracted inside the wall surface when not in use.

In the present invention, the wall surface 12 may be a wall surface of a building frame, or may be a wall surface of a washstand or the like.

[Effects] As described above, the hair dryer device of the present invention can be pulled out from the wall only when in use, and can be retracted into the wall when not in use. Therefore, when not in use, it does not protrude from the wall surface and does not hit people's heads or shoulders, making it safe. Further, when using the hair dryer device, there is no need to support it with hands or the like, and the user of the hair dryer device has both hands free, making it extremely easy to use.

Since the hair dryer device of the present invention has a structure in which the box is pulled out horizontally from the wall surface, the box occupies a small area on the wall surface when stored, and is aesthetically pleasing. Additionally, by adjusting the length of the box you pull out, you can adjust the position from which the hot air is blown out.
