FIG. 1 shows a hair dryer 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 shows a cross section taken along A-A of FIG. 1, showing the inside of the hair dryer 100 shown in FIG. 1. Figure 3 is an exploded perspective view of the hair dryer 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The hair dryer 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a head portion 110 and a handle portion 120 as shown in FIG. 1. Additionally, the head unit 110 includes a gas discharge unit 113 through which gas introduced from the outside is discharged.

As shown in FIG. 2, the head portion 110 may have a gas flow path through which gas flows. The gas flow path may be formed inside the head portion 110 and the handle portion 120, and may be defined as an area extending from the gas inlet 1285 to the gas discharge portion 113.

The head portion 110 may have a shape extending parallel to the gas discharge direction of the gas discharge portion 113, and may be provided to have various cross-sectional shapes such as circular or polygonal.

Gas flows in from the outside through the gas inlet 1285 provided in the handle portion 120, and the gas flowing inside flows along the gas flow path to the gas discharge portion 113 provided in the head portion 110. It can be discharged to the outside through.

The handle portion 120 may extend from the head portion 110. Referring to Figures 1 and 2, a handle portion 120 extending downward from the head portion 110 is shown. Downward does not necessarily mean 90° from the lower part of the head portion 110, but may extend diagonally downward as shown in FIG. 2.

In a conventional dryer, the heater, fan motor 151, and fan are located in the head, so the head has a large weight. If the weight of the head is large, it will put a strain on the user's wrist when using it while holding the handle. Therefore, the hair dryer of the present invention is characterized by moving the fan motor 151 and the fan to the handle to minimize the burden on the user's wrist.

The handle portion 120 may be molded integrally with the head portion 110 or manufactured separately and coupled to the head portion 110. When the handle portion 120 is manufactured separately from the head portion 110 and coupled to the head portion 110, it may be provided with a connection frame 112 connecting the head portion and the handle portion.

The upper end of the connection frame 112 of this embodiment is coupled to the head housing 111 and the lower end is coupled to the handle frame 126, and can be configured as an integrated piece with the head housing 111 to increase coupling force.

The area between the head housing 111 and the connection frame 112 is where the direction of extension changes, where the wind in the internal flow path changes, and is also the most vulnerable to external shock. If the connection frame 112 is integrated with the handle frame 126 and is fastened to the lower part of the head housing 111, there is a risk of damage.

Therefore, in this embodiment, the connection frame 112 and the head housing 111 are configured as one piece, and the connection frame 112 and the handle frame 126 are connected separately, but the handle housing 128 is connected to the connection frame 112. It covers the handle frame 126 at the same time and can reinforce the fastening force between the connection frame 112 and the handle frame 126.

The handle portion 120 may be a part that the user holds with his or her hand, and may be configured in a cylindrical shape for a comfortable grip. By using a small fan motor 151, the handle diameter can be made small to make it easier to hold.

In the present invention, the vertical direction may be defined based on the handle portion 120. For example, the handle portion 120 may have a shape extending downward from the head portion 110, and the head portion 110 may be located above.

The front-to-back direction can be defined based on the extension direction of the head portion. The gas discharge unit 113 is opposite to the front and the rear, and a display unit with a touch function may be located at the rear to display the status of the hair dryer and allow the user to operate it.

However, the blowing fan 155 of this embodiment has a handle portion 120. Since the diameter of the handle portion 120 is smaller than that of the head portion 110, the size of the blowing fan 155 also becomes smaller.

Since the size of the fan of the blowing fan 155 is reduced, the RPM of the fan motor 151 can be increased to rotate at a high speed to create a flow of air flowing into the gas flow path. For example, the blowing fan 155 running at 100,000 rpm can generate sufficient wind strength even if the size of the fan is small.

The hair dryer 100 may include a battery module (not shown) so that it can be used wirelessly. When the battery module is placed in the head unit 110, its weight increases and usability is reduced, so it can be placed in the handle unit 120. Since the weight of the battery module is greater than the blowing fan 155 disposed on the handle portion 120, the battery module is located at the lower part of the handle portion 120 and the blowing fan 155 is located at the upper part of the handle portion 120. You can.

Additionally, a heater module 160 capable of controlling the temperature of the discharged gas may be provided inside the head unit 110. The heater module 160 may be provided in various shapes and may be provided in various locations. Figure 2 schematically shows the heater module 160 provided inside the head unit 110.

Additionally, the heater module 160 may be provided in various types. The heater module 160 may heat gas by providing current to a coil-shaped resistor to generate heat. The resistor of the heater module 160 may not necessarily be in the form of a coil, and may be provided in various types to control the temperature of the gas, such as using a thermoelectric element.

A temperature sensor 169 that detects the temperature of the air discharged to the gas discharge unit 113 is additionally provided, so that if the temperature of the discharged air is too high, there is a risk of burns, so the operation of the heater module 160 can be stopped.

The first to fourth heater cases 163, 165, 166, and 167 may include an insulating material that prevents heat transfer from the heating wire 161 to peripheral devices and the outside of the head housing 111. Representative examples include mica (MICA) material, which has not only an insulating function but also fire resistance, which can prevent fires.

A heating wire 161 may be located to increase the temperature of the air passing between the first heater case 163 and the second heater case 165 located on the outside. The heating wire 161 shown in FIG. 9 uses a coil-shaped heating wire 161 and can be arranged by wrapping around the first heater case 163. The heating wire 161 can be in various forms, such as a zigzag bent tape type, in addition to the coil form.

In case of contact between the heating wires 161, there is a risk of fire due to short circuit, so avoid overlap between each heating wire 161 and fix the heating wire 161 so that it does not move even when the hair dryer 100 moves. Structure is needed.

The present invention uses the separator 164 to maintain the distance between each heating wire 161 and to keep the space between the first heater case 163 and the second heater case 165 constant. The separator 164 is arranged radially, with its inner side facing the first heater case 163 and its outer side facing the second heater case 165.

FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating the separator 164 of the hair dryer 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the drawing, the lower part is the inner end facing the first heater case 163, and the upper part is the outer end facing the second heater case 165.

The separator 164 of the present invention can use two types of separators 164 with different heights in order to arrange the heating wires 161 in a double overlapping manner. Figure 12(a) shows the first separator 1641 and Figure 12(b) shows the second separator 1642.

The first separator 1641 around which the first heating wire 1611 is wound and the second separator 1642 around which the second coil is wound may be alternately arranged as shown in FIG. 9 . As shown in FIG. 9, the first separator 1641 may not directly contact the second heater case 165, but the upper side of the second separator 1642 is in contact with the inner surface of the second heater case 165. 2 The position of the heater case 165 can be fixed.

The first separator 1641 is formed with a plurality of deeply recessed first grooves 1641a. The second groove 1641b, which has a shallower depth than the first groove 1641a, may be located between the first grooves 1641a. The first heating wire 1611 may be located in the first groove 1641a and the second heating wire 1612 may be located in the second groove 1641b.

Since the depths of the first groove 1641a and the second groove 1641b are different, the first heating wire 1611 and the second heating wire 1612 may be located at different distances from the center of the heater module 160. The first separator 1641 has a first groove 1641a and a second groove 1641b and has a smaller height than the second separator 1642 (h1<h2).

The second separator 1642 is taller than the first separator 1641, and a third groove 1642a is formed at the bottom so that the first heating wire 1611 can pass through. The upper portion (outer end) of the second separator 1642 may include a fourth groove 1642b in which the second heating wire 1612 is located. The third groove 1642a and the fourth groove 1642b are spaced apart, so the first heating wire 1611 and the second heating wire 1612 do not overlap each other.

Figure 13 is a diagram showing a state in which the first heating wire 1611 of the heater module 160 of the hair dryer 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is wound. First, the first separator 1641 can be placed in the first heater case 163 at equal intervals.

The third heater case 166 covering the rear surface of the first heater case 163 may include a separator 164 fixing groove 1671 for fixing the separator 164 as shown in FIG. 13 . The first heating wire 1611 is wound around the first groove 1641a of the first separator 1641. The starting point 1611a of the first heating wire 1611 is connected to the first electrode 1613 extending to the rear of the heater module 160, and the ending point 1611b is located in front of the heater module 160.

The first heating wire 1611 is wound in a spiral shape from the rear where the third heater case 166 is located toward the front. Due to this spiral structure, the positions of the first grooves 1641a of the plurality of first separators 1641 may be slightly shifted.

The starting point 1611a and the ending point of the first heating wire 1611 are located on the first separator 1641 on the upper side, so that only the first separator 1641 located on the upper side includes four first grooves 1641a and other first grooves 1641a. 1 The separator 1641 may include three first grooves 1641a. The number of first grooves 1641a is not limited and may vary depending on the thickness or arrangement of the first heating wire 1611.

Figure 14 is a diagram showing a state in which the second separator 1642 of the heater module 160 of the hair dryer 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is coupled. A second separator 1642 can be placed between the first separators 1641, and the second separator 1642 can also be formed in the third heater case 166 and inserted into the separator fixing part 1671.

As described above, the first heating wire 1611 passes through the third groove 1642a to fix the horizontal position of the first heating wire 1611, and the first heating wire 1611 and the second heating wire 1612 The position can be restricted so that it does not move in the direction of the second heater case 165 where it is located.

Figure 15 is a diagram showing a state in which the second heating wire 1612 of the heater module 160 of the hair dryer 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is wound. The second heating wire 1612 is wound in a spiral shape so that the second heating wire 1612 is located in the fourth groove 1642b of the second separator 1642 and the second groove 1641b of the first separator 1641.

The starting point 1612a of the second heating wire 1612 may be located in front of the heater module 160, and the ending point 1612b of the second heating wire 1612 may be located in the rear of the heater module 160. The first heating wire 1611 and the second heating wire 1612 may be connected in parallel to operate independently, but in this embodiment, the first heating wire 1611 and the second heating wire 1612 may be connected in series.

That is, the end point 1611b of the first heating wire 1611 and the starting point 1612a of the second heating wire 1612 are connected in front of the heater module 160. By placing a bimetal 1615 and a fuse 1616 between the first heating wire 1611 and the second heating wire 1612, a fire can be prevented by blocking the temperature from rising above a certain level.

The shape of the bimetal 1615 changes when the temperature rises above the first reference temperature, and the connection between the first heating wire 1611 and the second heating wire 1612 can be disconnected and reconnected when the temperature decreases. When the fuse 1616 reaches a temperature higher than the first reference temperature, it is physically blown to prevent overheating.

The end point 1612b of the second heating wire 1612 is connected to the second electrode 1614 at the rear of the heater module 160. The first electrode 1613 and the second electrode 1614 are located on the third heater case 167 and connected to the substrate module 131, and the substrate module 131 can control the heater module 160.

After winding all of the second heating wires 1612, the second heater case 165 can be added so that the heating wires 161 are located on the flow path between the first heater case 163 and the second heater case 165. there is. The heater module 160 is inserted into the heater frame 116 as shown in FIG. 3.

The heater module 160 of the present invention can prevent contact between the heating wires 161 in a limited space by using the separator 164, thereby realizing a stable heater module 160.

Figure 16 is a diagram showing a state in which the diffuser 210 is mounted on the hair dryer 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 16, the hair dryer 100 can be used by additionally attaching an accessory 210 to the gas discharge portion 113.

The diffuser 210, which has a shape with fewer discharge openings, can perform rapid drying of a narrow area by concentrating wind at a specific location. Alternatively, you can change the direction of the wind to create curls in your hair.

The diffuser 210 shown in FIG. 16 is a device that dries the scalp by dispersing the wind coming from the gas discharge portion 113 of the hair dryer 100 over a wide area. By contacting the diffuser 210 with the scalp, the air from the hair dryer 100 can be supplied directly to the scalp to dry the moisture in the scalp.

The diffuser 210 may be trumpet-shaped and may have a front side wider than the diameter of the portion coupled to the gas discharge portion 113 of the hair dryer 100. The scalp senses heat more easily than hair, so there is a risk of burns if hot air is concentrated in a specific location. Therefore, the diffuser 210 for scalp drying can disperse hot air over a wide area to lower the temperature and simultaneously perform rapid scalp drying.

Figure 17 is a front view and a cross-sectional view of the diffuser 210 according to an embodiment of the present invention. (a) is a front view and (b) is a C-C cross-sectional view of (a). The diffuser 210 has a rear side that is detachably coupled to the head portion 110 of the hair dryer 100, a cone-shaped diffusing case 216 that widens in the forward direction, and a diffuser case 216 at the front of the diffusing case 216. It may include a discharge cover 211 that is coupled and has a plurality of discharge holes 212 formed thereon.

The diffusing case 216 may be provided with a magnet or a ferromagnetic material 217 to couple with a magnet located in the gas discharge portion 113 of the hair dryer 100. The back of the diffusing case 216 is formed with a donut-shaped opening 2165 corresponding to the shape of the gas discharge portion 113, and the discharge cover 211 is coupled to the front.

The discharge cover 211 may have the shape of a sphere that is most concave in the center and protrudes forward toward the end, corresponding to the shape of the head.

A plurality of discharge holes 212 are formed in the discharge cover 211 and may be arranged radially as shown in (a) of FIG. 17. The size of the discharge hole 212 may become smaller as it is spaced apart from the center of the discharge cover 211. Therefore, the largest amount of wind is discharged from the central portion of the discharge cover 211, and the amount of wind discharged from the ends is small.

Since the gas discharge unit 113 supplies wind to the central part of the diffusing case 216, the amount of air decreases toward the end of the discharge cover 211. If the size of the discharge hole 212 is the same as the center of the end, there is a problem that the flow rate decreases, so the discharge hole 2121 can be formed with a smaller size as it moves from the center to the end of the discharge cover 211.

The discharge hole 212 may further include an extension protrusion 213 extending forward from the discharge hole 212 to guide the air to be quickly discharged in a straight direction. The extension protrusion 213 has the shape of a tube or pipe with a hole in the center and may have a tapered shape in which the hole diameter (inner diameter) at the front end portion becomes smaller.

When the end of the extension protrusion 213 directly contacts the scalp, the wind is concentrated at a specific location and provided directly to the scalp, thereby reducing the overall scalp drying effect. Therefore, the discharge hole 212 may further include a massage protrusion 214 that protrudes more than the extension protrusion 213 so that it is positioned at a predetermined distance from the scalp.

The end of the massage protrusion 214 is in direct contact with the scalp, and the end of the extension protrusion 213 can be maintained at a predetermined distance from the scalp. The massage protrusions 214 may include three or more for balance when in contact with the user's head, and may contain a material such as silicone to minimize irritation to the scalp.

Figure 18 is a simulation result showing a rear view and performance of the diffuser 210 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In the embodiment shown in (a) of FIG. 18, only the discharge hole 212 is formed on the back of the discharge cover 211. In this case, most of the wind discharged from the gas discharge unit 113 is discharged directly to the discharge hole 212 located in the center, and as shown in (b) of FIG. 18, the speed and amount of air flow in the center portion is reduced to that of the peripheral portion. relatively high compared to

The purpose of the diffuser 210 is to diffuse the wind discharged from the gas discharge part 113 of the head unit 110, so the wind must be supplied to the discharge hole 212 located on the outside of the discharge cover 211. A bridge groove 215 may be provided to guide air to the discharge hole 212 located on the outside of the discharge cover 211.

Figure 19 is a simulation result showing a rear view and performance of the diffuser 210 according to another embodiment of the present invention. Referring to (a) of FIG. 19, the bridge groove 215 is a radially extending groove on the rear surface of the discharge cover 211 and connects two or more discharge holes 212.

The discharge hole 212 located on the outside is called the first discharge hole 2121, and the discharge hole 212 located inside is called the second discharge hole 2122, and the bridge groove 215 is connected to the first discharge hole 2121. It can be configured to connect the second discharge hole 2122.

Since the second discharge holes 2122 are located inside the first discharge holes 2121, the number is small, and one second discharge hole 2122 can have a plurality of bridge grooves 215b extended, and one bridge groove A plurality of first discharge holes 2121 may be connected to (215).

The distinction between the second discharge hole 2122 and the first discharge hole 2121 is the relative position on the discharge cover 211, and the first discharge hole (212) is connected to the radially arranged bridge groove 215. The second discharge hole 2122 is located further inside than 2121).

Since the gas discharge portion 113 of the head portion 110 is open in a donut shape, the wind can be most strongly supplied to a position slightly spaced apart from the actual center portion. Some air is discharged through the discharge hole 212 located on the periphery of the donut shape, and the remaining air is supplied to the discharge hole 212 located at the center and outside.

Therefore, it is preferable that the second discharge hole 2122, which is the starting point of the bridge groove 215, is located in a straight line with the air discharge port 113 so that the wind reaches the circumference of the discharge cover 211.

Since the gas discharge portion 1113 has a ring shape, it may further include a third discharge hole 2123 located inside the second discharge hole 2122 and not connected to the bridge groove 215. Even without the bridge groove 215, the third discharge hole 2123 is supplied with wind from the circumference, so a large amount of wind is naturally collected and discharged, so the bridge groove 215 is unnecessary.

The bridge groove 215 may start from the second discharge hole 2122 slightly spaced from the center and extend toward the first discharge hole 2121 located on the outside of the discharge cover 211.

Some bridge grooves 215c may be connected to bridge grooves 215 located on the outside, and a bridge groove (not shown) branching from one bridge groove 215 in the form of a branch may also be included in the embodiment.

When a branch is provided, the pressure and speed of air in the central part decreases, as shown in (b) of FIG. 19, but the area to which wind is supplied at a pressure and speed above a certain level increases.

Figure 20 is a graph showing the performance of the diffuser 210 according to the presence or absence of the bridge groove 215 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The 0 part in the middle is the center, and larger numbers (+/- indicate direction) indicate the outside.

It can be seen that the speed of the central part is greater in the discharge cover 211 without the bridge groove 215, but the speed of the outer part is greater in the discharge cover 211 with the bridge groove 215.

Therefore, air can be supplied to the scalp evenly by guiding air to the discharge holes 212 located on the outside through the bridge groove 215 connecting the discharge holes 212. By supplying wind to a large area, the scalp drying speed can be improved. When using hot air to increase the drying speed, it is concentrated in a specific location and does not cause burns, allowing the scalp to be safely dried.

21 and 22 are diagrams showing the connector module 133 of the hair dryer 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The hair dryer 100 of the present invention can be controlled in various modes beyond simply controlling the speeds of the heater module 160 and the fan module 155. For example, it is desirable to supply hot air in different ways depending on the user's scalp condition, such as if the hair is curly, if the hair is thin, or if the hair is thick.

In addition, depending on the type of hair dryer 100 accessory, the intensity of hot air and wind suitable for a specific mode, such as scalp drying mode or intensive drying mode, can be adjusted and provided.

The hair dryer 100 of the present invention is provided with a display unit 141 on the back, so that it can provide an interface for users to use conveniently, and can also provide videos such as a user guide.

In order to control the smart hair dryer 100, a separate control unit may be provided and a board module 131 and a display board 134 on which an IC is mounted may be included. When features are added, a connection to an external terminal such as a computer is required to update them.

To connect to an external terminal, a connector terminal 1331 is required, and the connector terminal 1331 must be exposed to the outside. However, since it is not used frequently like the connector terminal 1331 of other electronic devices, it is advantageous in terms of appearance and function to not expose it and use it by opening the cover only when necessary.

Accordingly, the present invention provides a connector module 133 including a connector terminal 1331 at the bottom of the head portion 110, as shown in Figure 21, and a connector hole ( 1184) can be formed. The connector terminal 1331 can be configured so that it is not exposed to the outside during normal times by using the connector cover 1185 coupled to the connector hole 1184.

Since the substrate module 131 and the display substrate 134 are located in the head portion 110, wiring can be minimized by placing the connector module 133 in the head portion 110. In order to be placed in a location spaced apart from the heater module 160, it may be located in the rear direction of the handle portion 120.

It can be placed on the lower part of the hair dryer 100 to minimize exposure to the user's field of view during normal times.

However, the hair dryer 100 includes a flow path inside, and the air flowing into the gas inlet must be discharged through the gas discharge portion 113. When an opening is formed between the gas inlet and the gas discharge portion 113, the performance of the hair dryer 100 is deteriorated due to a decrease in flow rate.

To prevent air in the flow path from escaping through the connector hole 1184 for exposing the connector module 133 to the outside, a connector gasket 1335 may be provided in close contact with the periphery of the connector hole 1184.

FIG. 22 is a cross-sectional view and a perspective view showing a portion of the connector module 133, and the connector gasket 1335 may be provided to surround the circumference of the connector module 133. The end of the connector gasket 1335 is in close contact with the head housing 111 and may be disposed along the perimeter of the connector hole 1184.

The connector module 133 may be located below the display board 134 mounted on the cover frame 118. The display board 134 is arranged to face forward and backward, but the connector module 133 is located in the cover frame 118. Since it is located in the circumferential direction, it can be arranged perpendicular to the display substrate 134.

Figure 23 is a cross-sectional view of the connecting frame 112 of the hair dryer 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. (a) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line D-D of FIG. 2, and (b) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line E-E of FIG. 2. The connection frame 112 extends downward from the connection hole formed in the lower part of the head housing 111.

The connection frame 112 may be formed integrally with the head housing 111 and may be connected to the handle frame 126.

When the top of the handle housing 128 and the top of the handle frame 126 are located at the same connection part of the head housing 111, there is a problem in that the connection part becomes thick because the fastening structures overlap. In addition, in terms of rigidity, the connection position between the head part 110 and the handle part 120 is weak, so the connection frame 112 is extended from the connection hole and the position where it is connected to the handle frame 126 is located in the middle of the handle part 120. Place it as

The fan motor 151 and the blowing fan 155 coupled to the upper part of the handle frame 126 are inserted into the lower part of the connecting frame 112 as shown in FIG. 23. The internal space of the connection frame 112 becomes a flow path for supplying air introduced through the blower fan 155 to the heater module 160 located at the top.

A button portion 142 may be located on the connection frame 112. The button unit 142 can turn the power ON/OFF, the fan motor 151 ON/OFF, the heater module 160 ON/OFF, or the wind intensity of the heater. A variety of interfaces can be provided by providing a display unit 141, but since the display unit 141 is activated only when the power is turned on, a physical button can be used as the power button.

Additionally, when the wind is stopped or the temperature is changed during use, it is difficult to operate the hair dryer 100 by moving it away from the hair and towards the user's gaze in order to view the display unit 141. Accordingly, the button unit 142 may be provided as a user input unit that the user can operate without looking at the hand holding the handle unit 120.

The button portion 142 may be located in the front and rear of the handle portion 120 as shown in (a) of FIG. 23, but is not limited to this and may be located in the left and right directions. If there are too many buttons, there is a limit to control without looking, so in this embodiment, a power button at the front and a button to control ON/OFF of the fan motor 151 and the heater module 160 at the rear may be provided.

The handle housing 128 surrounding the connection frame 112 and the handle frame 126 may include a button hole 1124 for exposing the button portion 142 to the outside, and a button cover 1421 inserted into the button hole. ) includes. As shown in FIG. 23, the front of the button cover 1421 is exposed to the outside through the button hole 1124, and the inner surface is in contact with the switch 1422 mounted on the button board 1423.

Since the connection frame 112 is a passage through which air passes, there is a problem that wind pressure is weakened when wind leaks through the button hole 1124. It can be provided as a sealing member to prevent air from leaking through the button hole 1124.

Figure 24 is an exploded perspective view of the connection frame 112 of the hair dryer 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 24, the connection frame 112 may be configured to have an open side for the convenience of mounting the button module 142 and connecting the wiring structure extending from the handle frame 126.

A first ring frame 1121 extending downward from the extension hole connects a plurality of pillar frames 1122 extending downward from the first ring frame 1121 and the lower ends of the plurality of pillar frames 1122, and a handle frame 126 ) It may be composed of a second ring frame 1123 that is fastened to.

It may include an opening 1125 surrounded by a pair of pillar frames 1122, a first ring frame 1121, and a second ring frame 1123. In this embodiment, the pillar frames 1122 are oriented in the front, left, and right directions. By arranging it diagonally, openings 1125 may be located on the front, left, and right sides.

However, a button bracket 1124 may be further provided as an additional structure in the front and rear openings 1125 to seat the button module 142 so that the button module 142 can be mounted. The wiring can be organized through the left and right openings 1125 and the button module 142 can be inserted and fixed into the button bracket 124 of the connection frame 112.

To prevent air from leaking through the button hole 1124, the button gasket 114 may be placed only in the portion corresponding to the button hole 1124, but it may leak through the gap between the connection frame 112 and the handle housing 128. You can. As shown in FIG. 24, the button gasket 114 can be formed in a cylindrical shape to surround the connection frame 112 to seal the space between the handle housing 128 and the connection frame 112.

The button gasket 114 can be coupled by inserting it from the bottom to the top of the connection frame 112. At this time, the tube-shaped button gasket 114 may be tightened and may include an opening 1145 so that it can be stretched. The diameter of the button gasket 114 can be easily increased through the opening 1145, so that it can be inserted into the connection frame 112.

The button gasket 114 may include a switch hole 1141 at a position corresponding to the switch 1422 of the button module 142 so that the switch 1422 touches the inner surface of the button cover 1421, and the button gasket 114 The inner surface of (114) may be in close contact with the button board (1423).

The button cover 1421 inserted into the button hole 1124 includes a wing portion so as not to be separated from the button hole 1124, so a concave portion 1142 is formed at a position corresponding to the switch hole 1141 so that the wing portion can be seated. can do.

The button gasket 114 configured to surround the connection frame 112 may include a curved flow guide at the top toward the connection hole, as shown in FIG. 23. By eliminating the step portion of the connection frame 112, the flow of wind can continue uninterrupted to the head portion 110 through the connection portion.

Figure 25 is an exploded perspective view of the handle portion 120 of the hair dryer 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The handle frame 126 coupled to the lower part of the connection frame 112 may be formed by combining the first handle frame 1261 and the second handle frame 1262 in the front and rear directions. It is shown in the front-to-back direction in the drawing, but can also be combined in the left-right direction.

The first frame and the second frame may have a symmetrical structure, and may have a laterally open shape so that air can move to the connection frame 112 through the gas inlet located at the bottom of the handle housing 128. .

The connection frame 112 is open in the forward, left, and right directions (1266) and has a column frame 1122 located diagonally. The handle frame 126 has a column frame 1265 located in the front, left, and right directions and is open in the diagonal direction. It can have a given form.

The handle frame 126 may be composed of an upper part where the fan motor 151 and the blowing fan 155 are located and a lower part that is open to allow air to flow in. The lower part of the handle frame (126b) not only allows air to flow in, but also allows the power cable (136) to be coupled thereto.

The power cable 136 consists of a first cable 1361 and a second cable 1362 connected to the + and - poles, respectively, and the portion exposed to the outside of the hair dryer 100 is wrapped through the covering to form a single line. It extends and can be divided and extended inside the handle case.

The portion of the power cable 136 connected to the bottom of the handle 120 is at risk of being cut, so the thickness of the power cable 136 may be increased to protect it. However, as the thickness of the covering portion becomes thick, bending deformation becomes difficult, so the wing portion extending outward may be included as shown in FIG. 25.

Figure 25 is a diagram showing a method of fastening the handle frame 126 of the hair dryer 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. (a) is a diagram showing the first handle frame 1261, and (b) is a diagram showing the second handle frame 1262 coupled to the first handle frame 1261.
