Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a hair removing device used for removing body hair for purposes such as beauty.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a hair removing device of this type, one having a skin protecting blade integrally rotating with a hair removing drum as shown in JP-A-3-114406, or JP-A-3-30706. There is one having a skin protecting member fixed to the main body on the outside of the epilation roller as disclosed in the publication.

[0003]

However, in the former conventional example, since the blade works integrally with the epilation drum, the skin is rubbed or pulled by friction to irritate the skin, It was hurt. Also, in the latter case, since the skin protection member fixed to the main body is formed on the outer side of the epilation roller, the skin protection member must be made of a thin plate in order to pull out short hair, and the skin must be removed for hair removal. The skin protecting member was deformed when pressed against the skin, and the skin was sometimes pinched between the skin protecting member and the epilation roller due to the deformation of the skin protecting member.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art. The purpose of the present invention is to remove short hair without damaging the skin and to deform even when pressed against the skin. It is an object of the present invention to provide a hair removal device which does not have a pinch of the skin between the skin protection member and the skin hair removal means.

[0005]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems of the conventional example, the epilating apparatus of the present invention opposes a plurality of thin plate-like claw means arranged in parallel for pinching and pulling out hair. An epilation device having an opening / closing means for opening / closing a nail is characterized in that a thin plate-shaped skin protecting member is disposed in the main body between the nail means so as to extend substantially parallel to the nail.

It is also preferable that the main body is provided with a detachable frame for accommodating the claw means, and the skin protecting member is provided in this frame.

[0007]

According to the present invention, the skin protecting member can be provided with rigidity by providing the main body with the thin plate-like skin protecting member disposed between the nail means so as to extend substantially parallel to the nail. As a result, short hair can be removed and it can be pressed against the skin without deformation.

363 is formed to engage with the rollers 356 and 366, respectively, and the rollers 356 and 366, which will be described later, oscillate in opposite directions to penetrate the opening / closing levers 35 and 36 and guide the shaft 75 fixed to the rotation base 33. It is designed to reciprocate in opposite directions.

The movable claw 32 is swung by the reciprocating movements of the opening / closing levers 35 and 36 in opposite directions with the fulcrum 325 as a fulcrum, and is pressed simultaneously on both sides of every other fixed claw 31B to pinch the hair. The hair is pulled out by the rotation of the moving base 33. As shown in FIG. 3, the positive-moving cam 17 has a cylindrical shape and has intersecting portions that intersect in an X shape on both sides of the outer peripheral surface.
The positive-moving cam grooves 171 and 172 are provided. The positive cam grooves 171 and 172 meander in directions opposite to each other. A support plate 85 is fixed to the upper surface of the portion of the base body 5 where the positive cam storage recess 52 is provided by screws 86 as shown in FIG.
The support plate 85 is fixed by screws 86, and the support plate 85 is provided with a dustproof plate 64 through which the columnar portions 63a and 73a of the opening / closing cams 63 and 73 penetrate. Here, when the cylindrical portions 63a, 73a of the opening / closing cams 63, 73 are penetrated through the holes of the dustproof plate 64 and the edges of the holes of the dustproof plate 64 are elastically contacted with the cylindrical portions 63a, 73a, it is possible for the dust to enter inside. It is supposed to be prevented. The open / close cams 63, 73 are rotatably supported by swing shafts 62, 72 press-fitted and fixed to the base body 5, and are eccentric from the swing shafts 62, 72 on the upper surfaces of the open / close cams 63, 73. The lower parts of the shafts 631 and 731 are press-fitted and fixed in the above positions, and the rollers 356 and 3
66 is rotatably attached. Rollers 356, 366
Is engaged with the arcuate grooves 353 and 363 of the opening and closing levers 35 and 36 and slidably connected. Also, the open / close cams 63, 7
3, a protrusion is provided laterally, and shafts above the tops 66a and 66b are rotatably attached to shaft holes 632 and 732 provided in the protrusion. Here, the position of the shaft and the top 66

In B, the outer peripheral end portion is a bristle holding portion. Further, the end fixing claws 31A provided outside the movable claws 32 on both sides of the outermost end are integrally formed with the rotation base 33 in the embodiment shown in the accompanying drawings. The end fixing claws 31A are thicker and have higher rigidity than the fixing claws 31B, and are movable by the end fixing claws 31A having high rigidity at both ends when an impact such as a drop is applied. It is possible to prevent the claw 32 and the thin fixed claw 31B having low rigidity from being deformed or damaged.

The epilator of the present invention is characterized in that the body 1 is provided with a thin plate-shaped skin protecting member 380 which is arranged between the nail means so as to extend substantially parallel to the nail. In the embodiment shown in the accompanying drawings, a plurality of thin plate skin protection members 380 are arranged side by side at the opening of the frame 38, and both ends of the skin protection member 380 are integrally provided on the frame 38. As shown in FIG. 1, the skin protecting member 380 is arranged between the fixing claws 31B for hair removal such that the direction orthogonal to the plate thickness direction is the vertical direction in FIG. 1, and the thin plate-like skin protecting member 380 is It extends so as to be substantially parallel to the fixed claws 31B and the movable claws 32, so that the rigidity is strengthened so as not to be deformed even when pressed against the skin.

Further, the skin protecting member 380 is the fixed nail 31.
A step a as shown in FIG. 1 is provided so as to slightly project from B or the movable claw 32 so that the skin is not pinched. Further, since the skin protecting member 380 is provided integrally with the frame 38, it can be detached from the main body 1 by detaching the frame 38. In other words, the push button spring 389 provided on the hook 381 is pushed against the lock to release the fixing and the hook 381 is released from the lock.

Further, in the present invention, the skin protecting member 38
If 0 is a member different from the frame 38 and the step a is configured to be variable so that the size of the step a can be selected, the optimum step a can be set due to the elasticity of the skin of a person.

[0017]

According to the present invention, as described above, in a hair removing device having a plurality of thin plate-like claw means for juxtaposing and pulling out hair and opening and closing means for opening and closing claws facing each other. Since a thin plate-shaped skin protection member that extends substantially parallel to the nail between the nail means is provided on the main body, short hair can be removed and there is no deformation even when pressed against the skin, and the skin is rubbed.
