Description

[Detailed description of the invention] ゛ [Technical field] This invention relates to a hair ker/I/device.

[Background technology]

As shown in FIG. 4, a heater 42 and a water tank 43 are provided inside the main body 41, and water is sucked up by a water absorbing body 44 and placed on a hot plate 45.
A steam-type hair curler has been proposed that generates steam by applying heat to the hair. Consider a case where a heating part Q and a non-heating part R are arranged side by side in the main body 41, like this steam arcer M device. P is the hair curling part.

When the power switch is placed at the heating section Q, that is, at the position a, there are the following drawbacks. First, since the distance between the switch and the heater 42 is close, the temperature of the switch itself increases excessively. In addition, a portion of the outer surface of the casing 41 that serves as a grip and a portion of the heater 42
It is difficult to insulate between the two and becomes a factor that hinders the temperature optimization of Glyph 7°. In other words, the holding hand is 75ftll'
L<I can feel it.

If the power switch is placed in the non-heating part R, that is, in the position b, and the operator is also placed directly above B, the switch operation will be located behind the grip, making the operation inconvenient.

[Purpose of the invention]

This invention optimizes the temperature of the grip around the heating part,
It is an object of the present invention to provide a hair curler having a switch configuration that is easy to operate.

[Disclosure of the invention]

The hair carer A/device of the present invention has a heating part and a non-heating part arranged side by side in the main body, a switch operator on the high wall of the main body facing the heating part, and a switch contact part in the non-heating part. established,
The operating element and the contact part are connected by a connecting plate.

Since the contact part of the switch is provided in the non-heated part, it is possible to prevent the temperature of the contact part from rising excessively. Further, since there is no contact part in the heating part, the distance between the heater and the casing can be increased around the entire circumference, so that the heat insulation effect is good and the temperature of the grip part can be maintained at an appropriate temperature. Furthermore, since the contact part is placed at the rear part, which is a non-heating part, and the operator is placed at the front part, it is easy to operate. Shown below. As shown in FIG. 3, this hair curler includes a main body A that has a built-in steam generation mechanism and a heating pipe 31 at the tip;
It is composed of two replaceable attachment-type hair winding cylinders B and C that are detachably attached to a heating pipe 31.

On the other hand, the q hair winding body B serves as a curling brush, and the other hair winding body C serves as a finishing brush.

The details of the configuration will be explained with reference to the overall internal structure diagram in FIG. 1
2 is a casing, and 2 is a lid that is opened and closed when the water storage tank 13 is attached or removed. The casing 1 and the lid 2 form the exterior of the main body A. There is a heat shield cylinder 33 inside the casing 1.
are mated. The heat shield cylinder 33 is made of aluminum and is provided around the heater 9 and around the water storage tank 13. A transparent display window 2a is formed on the lid 2 for checking the amount of water in the water storage tank 13.

Reference numeral 3 denotes a switch operator, which is attached to the front circumferential wall of the casing 1, which serves as a heating section that accommodates the heater 9, so as to be slidable back and forth. The switch contact portion 5 is disposed at the rear portion of the casing 1 that is a non-heated portion, and is connected to the switch operator 3 by a connecting plate 4. 8 is a rotary connector provided at the base end of the power cord.

Reference numeral 11 denotes a hot plate for vaporizing water into steam, and a first heater 9 made of a PTC heater or the like is attached to both sides of the hot plate to heat the plate. The outer periphery of the first heater 9 is covered with a heater case 10 to prevent water from entering. The water storage tank 13 is composed of a tank body 13A and a tank lid 13B. A hot plate 1 is installed on the tank lid 13B.
A water absorbing body 14 for bringing water into contact with the tank 1, and a
An internal pressure regulating valve 15 is provided. The rear end of the water storage tank 13 is pressed by a coil spring 7 via a pressure plate 6.

The coil spring 7 is fitted onto the outer periphery of a bottomed cylindrical connector cover 71 for preventing water from entering the live parts gm and $b of the rotary connector 8, thereby simultaneously preventing the coil spring 7 from falling. This is useful for stabilizing the function of pressurizing the water storage tank 13.

The tip of the water storage tank 13 is fitted into the inner periphery of a cylindrical portion 10a provided at one end of the heater case 10 via a sealing 38 so as to be slidable in the axial direction, and the water absorber 14 comes into contact with the hot plate 11 to generate steam. do. The hot plate 11 is provided with a cavity 11m through which the generated steam passes.

A heating pipe 31 is connected to the steam nozzle 12 that communicates with the cavity 11m. There is a PTC inside the heating pipe 31.
A heater pipe 26 containing a second heater 25, such as a heater, is press-fitted and constantly heats the heating pipe 31. The second heater 25 is for preventing condensation of steam within the heating pipe 31.

Explain how to use the operation. To perform curling, first push in the operator 29 to generate steam.

Then, the hair wrapper B is wrapped around the hair while generating steam (continuously generated). When the winding is finished, press the operator 29 to stop the steam generation and wait for about 10 degrees. This allows it to dry naturally. After this, the hair winding cylinder B is rewound and the hair v-attaching is completed.

The steam generation and stopping operations will be explained.

As shown in FIG. 3, the water absorbing body 14 contacts the hot plate 11 and test steam is generated. The generated steam passes through the cavity 11j1 in the hot plate 11, through the steam nozzle/L/12, and from the heating pipe 31 through the steam dispersion felt 65.
It is discharged from the discharge hole 248 of the hair winding cylinder B and added to the hair. The second heater 25 inside the heating pipe 31 constantly heats the heating pipe 31 and prevents the steam passing through the heating pipe 31 from condensing. In addition, since the hair wrapping body B fits on the outer periphery of the heating pipe 31, the hair wrapping body B is also heated.
Therefore, dew condensation inside the hair winding cylinder B is also prevented.

The generation of steam is stopped by separating the water absorbing body 14 and the hot plate 11 as shown in FIG. That is, when the operator 29 is pushed in, the lever 19. Lever 18. Lever 17
The force is transmitted sequentially to n1 and finally the tip of the lever 17 is
By pushing one end of the tank lid 13B, the hot plate 11 and the water absorbing body 14 are separated, and the generation of steam is stopped.

Although the device operates in this manner, since the switch contact portion 5 is provided in the non-heated portion of the casing 1 where the heater 9 is not provided, an excessive rise in temperature of the switch contact portion 5 can be prevented. Furthermore, since the heating section of the casing 1 does not have the switch contact section 5, the distance between the heater 9 and the casing 1 can be increased over the entire circumference. Therefore, the heat insulating effect is good, and the temperature of the front part of the casing 1, which becomes the grip part, can be maintained appropriately. Moreover, since the switch operator 3 is arranged at the front part of the casing 1, it is easy to operate.

〔Effect of the invention〕

The hair curler of the present invention has the advantage that the temperature of the grip between the outside and the biasing part can be adjusted to an appropriate level, and the switch is easy to operate.
