Description

{CURING APPARATUS FOR NAIL GEL}

The present invention relates to a nail gel curing device, and more particularly, to a nail gel curing device capable of performing various stages of work without repetitively inserting or removing hands or feet into a curing machine during manicure or pedicure, Nail gel curing apparatus.

In general, nail polish and other materials are applied to the nails and toenails to nail and nail beautifully. In the case of manicure, there is a difference in products, but it takes about 8 hours to completely dry, and it takes a long time to dry. As such, when the drying time is prolonged, the activity is limited until it is completely dried, and a part of the applied nail polish may be peeled off or may be put on clothes or the like, which may cause various inconveniences.

Recently, in order to solve such inconvenience, manicure has been replaced by applying a gel having various colors to the fingernail. The gel is cured by irradiation with ultraviolet rays through a UV curing device. The curing time is about 1 to 3 minutes shorter than a general manicure and has a long duration.

However, the nail work using such a gel has problems such as curing after gel lamination for forming a base layer, curing after gel lamination for forming a color layer, curing after gel lamination for forming a gloss layer, gel lamination for forming an art layer And after curing, the hands or feet are hardened by putting the hands or feet into each hardening step, and then hardened and then pulled out again and then put in the hardening machine. Thus, the work is not easy and the user is more inconvenient .

FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view of a nail gel curing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a schematic view illustrating a use state of a nail gel curing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The nail gel curing apparatus 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention can be used in a nail curing or a pedicure operation (hereinafter referred to as "nail work") by putting hands or feet of a work subject The base plate 100, the hardening unit 200, and the control unit 300, which can shorten the hardening time.

The base plate 100 is a configuration in which a hand or a foot of a subject is placed during manicure or pedicure work. For convenience of explanation, the pedicure work will be described as an example.

3 is a side view of a base plate of a nail gel curing device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The base plate 100 includes a first inclined portion 110 and a second inclined portion 120. The first inclined portion 110 is provided with a predetermined inclination along the longitudinal direction and the second inclined portion 120 is extended from the first inclined portion 110 and is inclined in a direction opposite to the first inclined portion 110 Respectively. A reflective portion 130 is formed on the upper surface of the base plate 100. The reflector 130 reflects ultraviolet rays not irradiated to the toe among ultraviolet rays emitted from the curing unit 200 and irradiates the ultraviolet rays to the toes again to shorten the curing time. The reflective portion 130 may be formed on the entire base plate 100 or only on the second inclined portion 120.

A user's sole is placed on the first inclined portion 110. Specifically, in the first inclined portion 110, a region from the node of the user's foot, that is, the toe to the heel, or the region before the heel is placed. The main criterion is that the node of the toe lies on the boundary (i.e., the floor) between the first inclined portion 110 and the second inclined portion 120, depending on the size of the subject's foot. The second inclined portion 120 extends from the front surface of the first inclined portion 110 and has a slope opposite to the first inclined portion 110. Thus, the toe of the subject is spaced from the second inclined portion 120. In order for the ultraviolet rays to be reflected, the toes must be spaced from the upper surface of the reflecting portion 130. Since the toe is in close contact with the top surface of the base plate 100 together with the sole when the base plate 100 is provided as a flat plate, the subject must be holding a toe or a state in which the foot plate 100 is separated from the base plate 100 There are uncomfortable and difficult problems. However, in the present embodiment, the base plate 100 includes the first inclined portion 110 and the second inclined portion 120, and the toe node is formed between the first inclined portion 110 and the second inclined portion 120 The toe is naturally spaced apart from the second inclined portion 120 and the state of the toe is maintained. Therefore, when the nail work is performed, the subject can comfortably work without any motion, Can be reduced.

Although the angle between the first inclined portion 110 and the second inclined portion 120 is not limited, the first inclined portion 110 on which the subject's foot is placed is provided with a relatively gentle inclination, And the angle of the second inclined portion 120 has a relatively large inclination so that the reflector 130 exhibits a higher effect.

A guide groove 140 is formed on a side surface of the base plate 100 and a hardened portion 200 is mounted on the guide groove 140. This will be described later.

FIG. 4 is a view for explaining rotation and movement of a hardened portion of a nail gel hardening apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 is a cross- FIG. 6 is a front view of a nail gel curing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG.

The curing unit 200 is configured to cure the gel layered on the nails or toenails during nail work. The hardening unit 200 includes a connection unit 210 and a lamp unit 220. The connection portions 210 are provided on both sides of the base plate 100 and are provided to be rotatable about the width direction of the base plate 100. The lamp unit 220 extends from the upper end of the connection unit 210 and is separated from the base plate 100. A UV LED (not shown) is mounted on the lower surface of the connection unit 210 to emit ultraviolet rays toward the base plate 100.

The nail work using the gel includes curing after gel lamination to form a base layer, curing after gel lamination to form a color layer, curing after gel lamination to form a glossy layer, curing after gel lamination for forming an art layer (pattern) . However, there is a problem that the work is not easy because the hand or foot is hardened by inserting a hand or foot into each hardening unit, and then repeatedly taken out after the hardening unit is put in the hardening unit. However, in the present embodiment, since the hardened portion 200 is rotatable about the width direction of the base plate 100, when the hardened portion 200 is to be rotated other than the gel hardening, the hardened portion 200 is rotated, Thereby minimizing the inconvenience. Generally, it is general that the worker is located in front of the toe of the subject and performs the nail work. Since the foot of the subject is exposed toward the worker only by the rotation of the hardening unit 200, the curing device is not required to be moved, This is very good. On the other hand, the rotation of the hardening unit 200 can be controlled by the control unit 300. This will be described later.

The hardened portion 200 is provided along the guide groove 140 so as to be movable in the longitudinal direction of the base plate 100. The foot size differs for each subject, and due to other reasons, only the rotation of the hardening unit 200 may not provide a sufficient space for the operator to easily work. If the hardening part 200 is rotated and the front surface is opened but the work is not easy, a larger working space can be secured by moving the hardening part 200 along the guide groove 140. The position of the curing unit 200 may be transferred to the controller 300, and preferably, the position of the curing unit 200 is not continuous but stepwise (for example, steps 1-5). This will be described later.

The control unit 300 controls rotation of the curing unit 200 and ultraviolet irradiation.

The control unit 300 can control the rotation of the hardening unit 200. The hardening unit 200 may be provided with a predetermined button or a switch. When the hardening unit 200 is operated, the control unit 300 may receive the information and rotate the hardening unit 200. For example, when the operator presses the 'Up' button, the hardened part 200 rotates toward the subject's torso, and when the 'Lower' button is pressed, the hardened part 200 can rotate toward the toe of the subject.

In addition, the controller 300 may control the ultraviolet light to be irradiated only when the UV LED (not shown) is opposed to the second inclined portion 120. In order to cure the gel, ultraviolet rays should be irradiated. However, if the subject's skin is irradiated with ultraviolet rays, it may have harmful effects on the subject. Therefore, when the hardened part 200 is rotated, there is a favorable effect of securing the work space, but there may occur a problem that the skin is irradiated with ultraviolet rays. Accordingly, the controller 300 controls the ultraviolet light to be irradiated only when the UV LED (not shown) is opposed to the second inclined portion 120, thereby minimizing the irradiation of ultraviolet rays to the subject's skin. At this time, whether or not the second inclined portion 120 is opposed to the second inclined portion 120 can be determined from the angle information of the hardened portion 200. The control unit 300 may receive the position information of the hardening unit 200 and determine whether the second inclined unit 120 is opposed to the second inclined unit 120 or not. The hardened portion 200 can move along the guide groove 140 in the longitudinal direction of the base plate 100. Even if the hardened portion 200 is at the same angle as the hardened portion 200, The opposition can be different. Accordingly, the angle information of the curing unit 200 facing the second inclined portion 120 at each step position is input in advance, and ultraviolet rays can be irradiated only when the angle is the corresponding angle at each position. On the contrary, it is needless to say that the angle information of the hardened portion 220 opposed to the first inclined portion 110 is input in advance for each step position, and the ultraviolet ray irradiation can be turned off only when the angle is corresponding to each position.

In addition, the control unit 300 may control the curing unit 200 to rotate continuously within a predetermined angle. The nails and claws of a person all include curved surfaces. Therefore, when ultraviolet rays are irradiated at a certain position, it may not be uniformly cured by the curved surface. Accordingly, when the operator presses the 'Continue' button, the controller 300 causes the curing unit 200 to continuously rotate within the range opposite to the second slant 120, thereby uniformly curing the curing unit 200.

Hereinafter, the operation of the nail gel curing apparatus according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described.

First, the user places the sole on the first inclined portion 110. The toe segment to the heel is placed on the first inclined portion 110, and the toe is separated from the second inclined portion 120.

The worker rotates the hardening unit 200 so that the UV LED (not shown) is opposed to the first inclined portion 110, and the front surface is opened so that the toe is exposed to the worker side and the ultraviolet ray is not irradiated.

Thereafter, a gel for forming the base layer is applied to the toenails, and the UV LED (not shown) is rotated to be opposed to the second inclined portion 120 so that ultraviolet rays are irradiated to the toes. In this case, when the 'CONTINUOUS' button is pressed, the hardened part 200 irradiates ultraviolet rays while continuously rotating within a range opposed to the second inclined part 120, and the irradiated ultraviolet rays are reflected by the reflector and reach the toe side again And the curing time is shortened.

After the curing is completed, the curing unit 200 is rotated to laminate a gel for forming a color layer, and then the curing unit 200 is rotated to irradiate ultraviolet rays. The nail work is finally completed while performing the following operations in the same manner.

Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to perform various steps without putting hands or feet into the curing machine during the manicure or pedicure work, and the curing time can be shortened.
