Definitions
- the present invention relates to a band of wax for hair removal, consisting of a flexible support strip, on one of whose surfaces a thin layer of wax is deposited; This band must be subjected to a previous preparation before being used, considering the use of a device in which the band is heated until the wax layer reaches a consistency suitable for its application.
- a preferred embodiment of the device has a case-like configuration and is internally provided with a lower heating plate, provided with the corresponding electrical resistance and an upper plate for positioning the wax strip to be heated.
- Another of the elements used to perform hair removal comprises a support strip, composed of a cellophane or PVC sheet and provided with a layer of wax on one side; Due to the nature of this support strip, to achieve the application of the wax layer on it, the wax must be heated to a relatively high temperature, about 90 ° C; that can produce alterations and losses of some of the characteristics of the same.
- the wax band Before proceeding with the hair removal, the wax band must be heated and since it is associated with the support, it is subjected to the same heating
- the support strip has a certain stiffness preventing a correct adaptation of the band to the areas to be depilated.
- bands of wax are also known, such as that which is the subject of US Patent No. 1,620,539, which comprises a support formed by a strip of fabric on which two layers of wax are applied on both sides that are joined between if through the holes or pores of the had;
- This band of wax prevents the wax from separating from the support due to the intimate union with the one held but it has the disadvantage that it incorporates a significant amount of wax, with the corresponding increase in the final cost, only the layer applied by one of the sides.
- SUBSTITUTE SHEETS (RULE 26)
- some electrical devices applicable to hair removal are also known, among which those that have a kind of spiral that, by means of a vibration movement, pluck the hair; Although these devices are clean and comfortable to use, they are not as effective as waxing.
- the wax strip for hair removal, object of the invention comprises a layer of wax associated with one of the sides of a support strip;
- This support strip has certain characteristics aimed at achieving its stability during the heating of the wax, and that the adhesion or fixation of the wax layer to the support strip is completely safe regardless of whether the application of said layer is carried carried out at temperatures well below that of traditional bands, thereby avoiding the risk of altering the properties of the wax due to excessive heating.
- This wax band has great flexibility, regardless of the temperature to which it is subjected, which facilitates a good adaptation of it on the surface to be depilated.
- the support strip included in the band is composed of two sheets of different nature, attached
- the lower sheet composed of a plastic material, preferably based on polyethylene and the upper one, thicker preferably, but not necessarily, slightly larger than the lower sheet, is formed by viscose, cellulose microfibers. These two sheets can be heat welded using resin-based binder by preheating the polyethylene sheet or other suitable means.
- the wax layer is deposited on the free surface of the cellulosic sheet, said application being performed at about 60 ° C, a temperature found to be much lower than that used in conventional wax bands for the application of the wax on the supports respective.
- the wax extends over the surface of the cellulosic sheet, penetrating between the cellulose microfibers, thus achieving an effective and safe grip of the wax layer to the support, preventing it from it can be detached from it during hair removal.
- the support strip is highly flexible due to a small part of the reduced thickness of the polyethylene sheet, substantially more flexible than PVC or cellophane used in traditional bands, and the
- SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) incorporation of the cellulosic sheet that increases the thickness of the support and allows a permanent fixation of the wax layer to the support strip.
- a preferred embodiment of a heating device for heating the wax impregnated band before proceeding with hair removal is composed of a lower body, or base, and an upper body, or cover, which are hinged together, adopting a configuration to case mode
- heating plate provided with the corresponding electrical resistance; said heating plate is centrally and longitudinally located in the interior part of the said base body, and supported by partitions provided for this purpose at the bottom of the latter.
- the resistor is connected to an electrical cable that emerges outside the device, ending in a plug for connection to the network or to a suitable power supply.
- the lower body externally presents, at its base, a recess in which the cable will be collected when the device is not being used.
- the device internally includes a second plate that constitutes the support of the wax strip to be heated, said plate being disposed above the plate
- the aforementioned support plate is provided with lower pins and, on its upper face, a rear partition for the support of the wax bands to be heated, so that they are not attached to the plate and can be easily picked up and removed afterwards of its heating.
- the cover or upper body of the case When the device is in the use phase, the cover or upper body of the case will be in the open position, exposing the support plate of the wax bands.
- the heating plate has a housing for the corresponding electrical resistance.
- SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) - Figure 1 shows a plan view of the wax strip for hair removal object of the invention.
- FIG. 2 shows a large-scale section of a portion of the wax band.
- FIG. 3 shows a perspective view of a heating device of the wax bands in the open position;
- the heating plate has been represented with dashed line and the support plate of the wax strips removed from the device and in a position parallel to that occupied within the device.
- FIG. 4 shows an elevation view of the base body of the heating device, sectioned longitudinally by a vertical plane, and in which the support plate with dashed line has been shown.
- FIG. 5 shows a cross section of the plate constituting the support for the wax bands to be heated.
- FIG. 6 shows a plan view of an embodiment of the heating plate.
- FIG. 7 shows a cross section of the heating plate along the cutting line A-A 'indicated in the previous figure.
- the support strip (1) is composed as can be seen in Figure 2, by two sheets of different nature, specifically a lower one (3), made of polyethylene and a higher one (4), composed of fibers of Cellulose and viscose bonded with a resin.
- the sheet (4) of cellulosic material is of great porosity and the wax layer (2) that penetrates the pores of the cell is deposited on its free surface, leaving the cellulose microfibers included between the layer wax (2).
- FIG. 3 Preferred embodiment of a suitable heating apparatus is shown in Figure 3;
- This device is composed of a lower body or base (5) and an upper body or cover (6), which are joined by its rear area by a hinge (7) that allows the body to swing (6) with respect to the body (5) to achieve the opening or closing of the device.
- the base body (5) and the cover (6) have complementary fastening means (8) and (9) to maintain a stable position in the closing of the device.
- the body (5) forms a receptacle, provided on its outer face with a recess (10) whose function will be explained in detail later, while internally it has partitions (11) that are constituted in the middle of positioning and support for the corresponding heating plate (12), which has to be logically fed through an electrical cable connected to the network, so that said cable, when the heating device is not used, will be perfectly hidden and stored in the compartment formed by the recess (10 ).
