As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the nail art device 1000 may include a main body 100, a curing module 200, and a stamp 300. This nail art device 1000 may further include a battery 400, an operation control unit 500, a protective lens 600, a first stopper 710, and a second stopper 720.

This main body 100 forms the external appearance of the nail art device 1000.

A terminal portion 110 is provided on the outer surface of the main body 100, and the battery 400 provided within the main body 100 can be charged through an external power supply (not shown) connected to the terminal portion 110. . Here, the external power supply source may be, for example, a mobile phone charger or an external battery, and the external power supply source is not limited to a specific type.

If the battery 400 is not separately provided in the main body 100, an external power supply source connected to the terminal unit 110 may directly supply power to the curing module 200.

And an operation control unit 500 is provided on the outer surface of the main body 100. This operation control unit 500 is configured to control the operation of the curing module 200. For example, the operation control unit 500 may control the ON/OFF operation of the curing module 200. Furthermore, the operation control unit 500 can control the operation of the curing module 200 in a two-stage lighting mode in which the number of lights of the light emitting units 210 provided in the curing module 200 is varied. This operation control unit 500 may be made of a push switch, for example.

This main body 100 is formed in a tubular shape, and an attachment frame 120 is provided at one end of the main body 100. Here, the attachment frame 120 protrudes from the inner surface of the main body 100 in a ring shape so that a coupling hole 101 is formed. The coupling protrusion 320 provided on the stamp 300 may be inserted and coupled to this coupling hole 101.

Here, the stamp 300 may include a stamping portion 310 and a coupling protrusion 320. This stamp 300 may be made of a transparent, soft material.

And the front surface of the stamping part 310 is made to have a curved surface. A nail gel image for stamping on fingernails or toenails may be embedded in this stamping portion 310.

And the engaging protrusion 320 protrudes toward the rear of the stamping portion 310. This coupling protrusion 320 has a shape corresponding to the coupling hole 101, so that the stamp 300 is detachable from the main body 100.

A hollow see-through hole 102 is formed inside the main body 100 to enable transparency from the rear where the protective lens 600 is provided to the front where the stamp 300 is provided.

Here, the protective lens 600 is coupled to the other end of the main body 100. This protective lens 600 may be made of a convex lens and is configured to magnify the nail gel image stamped on the stamp 300 or the fingernails or toenails for stamping the nail gel image.

Such a protective lens 600 may be made of, for example, transparent plastic or acrylic material. Additionally, a material capable of blocking blue light is applied to the protective lens 600 or a blue light blocking film is attached to block the blue light generated from the light emitting unit 210 when the light emitting unit 210 is turned on. Accordingly, the user's eyes can be protected.

In other words, when stamping a fingernail or toenail by stamping a nail gel image on the stamp 300, the user always sees the nail stamped on the stamp 300 through the protective lens 600 and the transparent stamp 300 from the rear of the main body 100. You can enlarge the gel image and the nail or toenail for stamping the nail gel image and stamp it exactly at the desired location.

During the stamping and curing process of this nail gel image, the blue light emitted from the light emitting unit 210 is blocked by the blue light blocking material or blue light blocking film provided in the protective lens 600, thereby protecting the user's health. .

Meanwhile, the curing module 200 is configured to quickly harden the nail gel image by irradiating ultraviolet rays to the user's fingernails or toenails on which the nail gel image has been stamped.

This curing module 200 may include a light emitting unit 210, a light diffusion unit 220, and a converter (not shown).

This light emitting unit 210 forms a ring shape corresponding to the front of the attachment frame 120 so as not to block the transparent hole 102, and is attached to the front of the attachment frame 120.

Such a light emitting unit 210 may be composed of a ring-shaped substrate and a plurality of ultraviolet LED elements and circuit components mounted on the substrate. This light emitting unit 210 may be attached to the front of the attachment frame 120 using an adhesive or the like.

Additionally, a light diffusion unit 220 may be provided on the entire side of the light emitting unit 210.

This light diffusion unit 220 is configured to spread the light emitted from the light emitting unit 210 to the stamp 300 and spread over a large area. Therefore, for example, the hardening operation can be effectively performed in the process of semi-hardening the nail gel image stamped on the stamp 300 or hardening the nail gel image stamped with the user's fingernails or toenails.

In this way, since the light diffusion part 220 is provided on the entire side of the light emitting part 210, for example, when the stamp 300 is removed from the main body 100 and the nail art device 1000 is used as a curing machine. , the light emitting unit 210 can effectively irradiate ultraviolet rays in a certain range.

This light diffusion unit 220 is configured to diffuse the light emitted from the light emitting unit 210 and at the same time protect the light emitting unit 210 .

And the converter is configured to electrically connect the battery 400 and the light emitting unit 210. This converter is configured to supply power supplied from the battery 400 to the light emitting unit 210. Such a converter can be installed within the main body 100 so as not to obscure the transparent hole 102 as much as possible.

Meanwhile, the battery 400 is provided inside the main body 100. This battery 400 is electrically connected to the terminal portion 110 and can be charged through an external power supply source connected to the terminal portion 110.

Such a battery 400 can be made so as not to block the transparent hole 102. This battery 400 is made of various shapes, such as a square plate or a disk shape, as long as it has a structure capable of securing the transparent hole 102, and of course, it can be attached and fixed to the inside of the main body 100 to avoid the transparent hole 102.

Meanwhile, the nail art device 1000 may further include a first stopper 710 and a second stopper 720. The first stopper 710 and the second stopper 720 are coupled to the main body 100 and are configured to protect the stamp 300 and the protective lens 600 from the outside. When the first stopper 710 and the second stopper 720 are coupled to the main body 100, they can be coupled through various coupling methods such as screw coupling or coupling using a locking piece.

Here, the first stopper 710 is made to be detachable from one end of the main body 100. This first stopper 710 is made to protect the stamp 300 provided on the front side of the main body from the outside.

And the second stopper 720 is made to be detachable from the other end of the main body 100. This second stopper 720 is made to protect the protective lens 600 provided on the rear side of the main body from the outside.

Briefly looking at the process of using the nail art device 1000, the user first applies nail gel to the engraved pattern shape of the nail gel image plate prepared by the user, and then removes unnecessary nail gel using a scraper.

Next, the user holds the nail art device 1000, operates the operation control unit 500, turns on the light emitting unit 210, stamps the nail gel image on the stamp 300, and stamps it on the fingernail or toenail. do. At this time, before taking a nail gel image on the stamp 300, the light emitting unit 210 is already turned on, and when a nail gel image is taken on the stamp 300, the nail gel image is exposed to the heat emitted from the light emitting unit 210 and Hardening begins immediately due to the latent heat of the stamp 300. That is, before the nail gel image stamped on the stamp 300 is stamped with a fingernail or toenail, the nail gel image is already semi-hardened and stamped with a fingernail or toenail.

In this way, the nail gel image semi-cured in the stamp 300 can be prevented from spreading or deforming. Accordingly, when stamping the nail gel image stamped on the stamp 300 with a fingernail or toenail, the nail gel image can be stamped more clearly and vividly.

Lastly, the semi-hardened nail gel image in the stamp 300 stamped with a fingernail or toenail is pressed by the stamp 300 and hardened by the heat emitted from the light emitting part 210 and the latent heat of the stamp 300. As it continues, complete hardening is achieved in the fingernails or toenails after stamping.

As such, unlike the prior art, the nail art device 1000 according to the present invention can sufficiently harden the nail gel image during the stamping process without a separate hardening process, so nail art work can be performed easily.

In addition, if the nail gel image is designed on the fingernails or toenails by hand or other work tools rather than stamping using the stamp 300, the user separates the stamp 300 from the main body 100 and then uses the light emitting unit 210. Of course, it can also be used as a hardener by operating ).

However, this is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is not limited by the scope of description of this embodiment.

The description of the present invention described above is for illustrative purposes, and those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention can be easily modified into other specific forms without changing the technical idea or essential features of the present invention. will be. Therefore, the embodiments described above should be understood in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive.
