Description

Description: TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a hair iron having a pair of handle portions which are rotatably supported and a tip end portion of which is provided with a heating plate which is heated by a heater. The present invention relates to a technique for performing uniform ironing by performing an ironing action on the hair.

BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, in a hair iron having a pair of handle portions 1 and 1 rotatably pivotally supported and a hot plate 3 which is heated by a heater 2 at a tip end thereof, a hair iron shown in FIGS. As shown in), there are those for straight irons with a flat heating plate surface and those for waffle irons with a corrugated heating plate surface, but the hair is sandwiched between the heating plates 3 and 3 and ironed. When applying, the amount of hair is not constant and becomes non-uniform, and due to the uneven amount of hair, the ironing state becomes uneven, especially in waffle iron, the wavy shape becomes uneven, Further, in a straight iron for straightening hairstyles such as curly hair and perm marks, there is a problem that the hair does not become straight unless it is uniformly applied to the hair.

[Object of the Invention] The present invention has been made in view of such problems,
An object of the invention is to provide a hair iron that can obtain a uniform finished state by making the hair amount substantially constant.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION In the hair iron of the present invention, the outer shell cases 9 and 9 at the tips of the pair of handles 1 and 1 whose base ends are rotatably supported to each other.
Is equipped with a pair of hot plates 3 and 3 which are heated by the heaters 2 and 2 facing each other, and the hot plates in the longitudinal direction of the handle parts 1 and 1 are provided.
Comb teeth 10 that are shorter than the length of 3, 3 and the comb teeth 10
The capturing means 4, 4 composed of a pair of combs 14, 14 attached at both ends of the heating plate 3, 4 is provided on the side of the heating plate 3, 3 and the capturing means 4 , 4 are comb teeth 10
A pair of combs 14, 14 slidably mounted on both ends of the
The length of the comb teeth 10 is adjusted according to the above, and the above-mentioned object is achieved by such a configuration. That is, by providing the trapping means 4 for trapping a fixed amount of hair on one side of the heating plate 3, the trapping means 4 captures a substantially fixed amount of hair, and the substantially constant amount of hair is held between the heating plates 3, 3. In the above, the ironing action can be performed and a uniform and beautiful finish can be performed.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

A pair of handle portions 1 and 1 are rotatably attached to their base ends by a rotary shaft 6. The respective handle portions 1 are separable in the width direction thereof, and the right half body 7 is brought into contact with the left half body to be assembled with the screws 8. In such an assembled state, the hot plate 3 having the corrugated surface 3a is held. The heater 2 is fitted inside the heating plate 3 so that the heating plate 3 can be heated by power supply from the power supply wire 5 by a switch operation.

And, as shown in FIG. 2, on one side of the one heating plate 3,
Side wall portion 9a of the outer shell case 9 formed integrally with the handle portion 1
Also, the comb teeth 10 are projected on the portion 9b continuing from this. A slide groove 11 is formed in the side wall portion 9a, and a slide body 12 having a U-shaped cross section is slidably inserted in the slide groove 11. A plurality of elastic pins 13 are projected on the slide body 12 to form a comb body 14. Thus, the comb teeth 10 having a length shorter than the length of the heating plates 3, 3 in the longitudinal direction of the handle parts 1, 1 and a pair of comb bodies slidably mounted on both ends of the comb teeth 10. The capturing means 4,4 are constructed from 14,14.

Thus, by providing the trapping means 4 for trapping a certain amount of hair on one side of the heating plate 3, first, as shown in FIG. 5 (a),
An appropriate amount of hair is applied to the heating plate 3, the hair is inserted into the comb teeth 10, the comb body 14 is slid and closed, and the elastic pin 13 thereof is inserted.
Hold a substantially constant amount of hair by using, and then remove excess hair in the direction of the hair H indicated by the broken line in FIG. 5 (b), thus trapping a constant amount of hair [Fifth
FIG. 5 (b)], and thereafter, as shown in FIG. 5 (c),
The waffle iron is performed by pressing the pair of hot plates 3 and 3. In this way, the trapping means 4 traps a substantially fixed amount of hair, and this substantially fixed amount of hair can be ironed between the hot plates 3 and 3 to achieve a uniform and beautiful finish. Then, while maintaining a fixed amount of hair trapped, the hair iron is displaced toward the tip of the hair to iron the next part. The length of the comb teeth 10 is adjusted by sliding the pair of comb bodies 14, 14 attached to both ends of the comb teeth 10 of the capturing means 4 to adjust the width between the pair of comb bodies 14, 14. By adjusting the amount, a uniform and even more beautiful wave can be applied according to the amount of hair to be applied between the pair of combs 14 and 14 to apply the wave.

In the embodiment, the waffle iron in which the corrugated surface 3a is formed on the heating plate 3 has been described, but it goes without saying that the present invention may be applied to a straight iron. or,
The design of the capturing means 4 can be changed in various ways.

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION According to the present invention, a pair of hot plates heated by a heater are opposed to each other in the outer shell cases of the distal end portions of the pair of handle portions whose base ends are rotatably supported to each other. Comprising a trapping means comprising a comb tooth having a length shorter than the length of the hot plate in the longitudinal direction of the handle portion, and a pair of comb bodies mounted at both ends of the comb tooth, Since it is provided on the side portion of the hot plate, the amount of hair caught by the catching means will fit between the pair of combs within the length of the hot plate in the longitudinal direction of the handle portion, and therefore The hair does not protrude laterally, and a substantially constant amount of hair can be captured by the capturing means. Therefore, there is an advantage that a beautiful wave can be imparted to the substantially constant amount of hair by the ironing action of the hot plate. .
