Everyone was very uncomfortable feeling sweaty and irritated by the hot air blown out of the dryer.

[0004]

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the problem, each of the conventional hair dryers is provided with a blower tube (case) accommodating a cool air blow-out motor and a cool air fan.

[0005]

[Operation] While setting and drying hair with hot air blown from the outlet of each type of hair dryer,
Cool your face with cool air (cool air) that blows out from a blower tube (case) that contains a cool air blower motor and a cool air fan.

[0006]

(Example of First Embodiment) A fan case containing a motor and a cool air fan is attached so as to rotate about a fulcrum provided on a part of a connector, and the fan case is connected to the hair via the connector. It is detachably attached to the lower part of the blower tube of the dryer, so that the face can be cooled by the cool air fan. As shown in FIG. 1, the connector mounting portion 2 in which the concave connector 4 connected to the changeover switch of the dryer is embedded.
Is provided at the lower portion of the blower tube 1, and the connector 3, in which the convex connector 5 connected to the motor 7 for driving the cool air fan 6 is embedded, is inserted into the connector mounting portion 2 and fixedly connected. The fan case 8 accommodating the cooling fan 6 is attached to a part of the connector 3 so as to be rotatable. The switch is turned on the handle of the dryer, and the face is cooled by the cool wind of the cooling fan 6. Connector 3
Of the fan case 8 is attached to the fulcrum 9 so that the fan case 8 faces the face at an appropriate angle. In order to connect and fix the connector 3 and the connector mounting portion 2, a round connector is tightened with a cap nut or a square connector is provided on the connector mounting portion 2 by turning a bolt knob provided on the connector 3. Into the screw holes, and firmly connect and fix the connectors and connectors. FIG. 2 shows a method of connecting the connector by sliding the connector. The right and left covers 13 of the connector 12 are slid and inserted into the connector mounting portion 11 to fix the connectors together. In addition, a concave part is linearly formed in a part of the connector mounting part 11, and a convex part is formed at the position of the right and left covers 13 corresponding to the concave part. The knob of the bolt 14 provided on the connector 12 is turned and screwed into the screw hole 15 of the connector mounting portion 11 to be fixed. (Second embodiment) A fan case containing a motor and a cool air fan is attached so as to rotate about a fulcrum provided on a part of the fan case holder, and the fan case holder is connected to the blower via a connector. It is detachably inserted between the blow nozzle and the nozzle, and is attached so that the face can be cooled by blowing the cool air fan. As shown in FIG. 3, the fan case holder 17 to which the connector 16 is fixed is fitted between the blower cylinder 18 and the blowing nozzle 19,
The convex connector 20 of the connector 16 is inserted into the hole of the concave connector of the connector mounting portion 21 provided on the blower tube 18 and fixed. Note that the connector mounting portion 21 may be provided outside the blower tube 18 and the connector 16 of the fan case holder 17 may be provided at a position corresponding to the connector mounting portion 21 to be connected and fixed. The fan case holder 17 and the blower cylinder 18 do not rotate because the connectors are connected to each other, and the fan case holder 17 and the blow-out nozzle 19 rotate as in the related art. When the fan case holder 17 is removed, the blowing nozzle 19 is inserted into the blower tube 18 and rotates as usual. When the handle of the dryer is folded horizontally, the fan case 8 is turned to the blow nozzle side to be horizontal so that the handle does not interfere with the fan case 8. In the first and second embodiments, if a moderating means is provided at a rotating portion between the arm of the fan case and the fulcrum of the connector, the rotating operation can be performed with an appropriate click feeling. Also, when the connector is removed, a cap is attached to the connector mounting part to prevent leakage and dust protection of the connector. When inserting the connector, remove the cap and attach it to a part of the fan case so that the cap is not lost. Further, the shape of the connector and the connector attaching portion is round or square in FIG. 1 and rectangular in FIG. 2, but other shapes and structures that can firmly fix the connectors can be used. In addition, as a method of electrically connecting and fixing, a known method other than the connector can be employed. (Third Embodiment) A blower cylinder (case) containing a motor for exclusive use of cool air blowing and a cool air fan is provided at an appropriate position of a hair dryer of each type such as a pistol type hair dryer, a stand type, a stationary type, and a wall type. Cool the face with the cool air fan. As shown in FIG. 4, between the lower part of the blower tube 25 of the pistol-type hair dryer and the handle, a blower tube (case) 24 for accommodating the motor 22 and the cooler fan 23 is provided adjacently. A blower tube (case) 24 dedicated to cool air blowing can be molded integrally with the blower tube 25 and the handle, or can be attached so as to be detachable between the handle and the blower tube 25. It is also possible to remove the blower tube 24 dedicated to cool air blowing and attach the upper part of the handle to the lower part of the blower tube 25. Further, the position of the blower tube (case) 24 dedicated to cool air blowing may be provided between the handle and the blower tube, at an appropriate position of the handle, at a lower portion of the blower tube in front of the handle, at the side of the blower tube, and the like. it can. In addition, a motor and a fan may be provided in the handle, and the handle itself may also serve as a blower tube (case) dedicated to blowing out cool air. In each of the above embodiments,
In order to set the wind direction to the face direction, the outlet of a blower tube (case) 24 dedicated to cool air blowing is formed to face the face direction, or a louver is provided at the outlet to adjust the wind direction angle. (Example of Fourth Embodiment) A motor dedicated to cool air blowing and a cool air fan are housed in a part of a blower tube (case) housing a motor, a fan, a heater, etc. of a hair dryer such as a stand type, a stationary type, and a wall type. An air blower (case) is provided to cool the face with the air from the cool air fan. FIG.
A fulcrum 27 is provided at a part of a blower tube (case) 26 containing a motor, a fan, a heater, and the like of a hair dryer such as a stand type, a stationary type, and a wall type.
A blower tube (case) 28 containing a cool air blower dedicated motor and a cool air fan is attached so as to be rotatable. The position where the fulcrum 27 is provided is a position at which the angle can be adjusted appropriately according to the type and design of each dryer. When the fulcrum is not provided, a blower tube (case) 28 exclusively for cool air blowing is provided adjacent to the blower tube (case) 26 at an appropriate angle toward the face, or a blower tube (case) exclusively for cool air blowout. When the air blower 28 is provided adjacent to and in parallel with the blower tube (case) 26, the cool air outlet is directed toward the face, or the wind direction is adjusted using a louver or the like. In addition, the types of the motor and the fan for exclusive use of the cool air blowing of the third and fourth embodiments are in accordance with the type, design, size, position of the fulcrum, etc. of the various types of dryers to be mounted, and the axial flow. A type of fan, centrifugal fan, once-through fan, or the like can be adopted.
