Definitions
- Brushes are essential accessories in hair salons.
- finishing brushes which are used to smooth the hair when dry
- brushing type brushes which, they allow to give a shape by drying wet hair
- the mechanical action in question is a back and forth movement of the head of the brush on a lock of wet hair. It is the repetition of this gesture which will give a shape to this wick, either a stiff shape if the head of the brush passes simply by sliding on the hair, or a curly shape if the professional wraps the wick of hair around the head of the brush, and it is warm or hot air which, by the intensity of the heat and the quantity of air propelled, will more or less quickly give this wick the desired shape. If a brush reinforced the effects of ventilation, it would be possible to dry the lock of hair more quickly and, thus, save time, holding to styling, and save electrical energy.
- Conventional brushes the head of which is generally cylindrical, but can also be semi-cylindrical or flat, and which include bristles or tips distributed judiciously around a solid part, only allow the drying of the part of the wick on the surface , the air which arrives on the wick thus drying only the external part of this one, and consequently their employment requires a long drying time.
- This drawback was recognized by Jean-Louis Wachtel, who proposed to make a first improvement to conventional brushes under his patent FR-2,577,774 filed on February 27, 1985. This improvement consists in creating an air circulation of right through the head of the brush.
- the present invention consists in creating a dynamic of the air propelled by the hand dryer which is different from those provided by known brushes and which makes it possible to obtain a quality of brushing at least equal, with a time saving varying between 30 % and 50% depending on the shape of the brush head.

- the axes of the two orifices of each of said through holes advantageously form between them an angle between 30 ° and 60 °.
- the axes of the two orifices of each of said through holes advantageously form between them an angle between 30 ° and 60 ° and open out on the same side of the head.
- the brush according to the invention allows the formation of two laminar drying flows of substantially the same power, a first outside, coming from the dryer, and a second inside, coming from the head of the brush.
- the brush head has at least one recess which extends parallel to its longitudinal axis and which is closed at its two transverse ends and, disposed inside said recess, in a substantially axial plane , an insert composed of a longitudinal bar, the ends of which are fixed in the transverse end walls of the head of the brush, the upper edge of said bar being situated substantially in the virtual extension of the surface of the zone of the head in which Recess is made while its lower edge is distant from the bottom of the recess, and the bar extending transversely in the form of multiple parallel branches and regularly spaced whose upper edge is located substantially in the virtual extension of the surface of the head and the lower edge of which rests against the bottom of the recess.
- the area of each opening existing between the lower edge of the bar and the bottom of the recess is equal to that of the openings delimited between two successive branches, the bar and the edge in vis-à-vis the recess.
- the area of each opening existing between the lower edge of the bar and the bottom of the recess is less than that of at least one of the two openings delimited between two successive branches , the bar and the edge opposite the recess.
- the areas of the openings delimited between two successive branches, the bar and the edge opposite the recess are different.
- the brush head has at least two recesses and, disposed inside each recess, an insert composed of a longitudinal bar extended transversely by multiple parallel branches and said openings of each recess closest of the other recess are of an area greater than that of the openings of the first recess furthest from the other recess.
- a substantially median longitudinal partition connected along its two longitudinal edges to the side wall of the head, extends inside said hollow head from one end to the other thereof in order to divide said interior into two chambers of substantially equal volumes and the side wall of the head is pierced with four longitudinal openings opening in pairs in each chamber.

- Figures 10, 11 and 12 illustrate the operating modes of three cylindrical head brushes, respectively full for the first, traversed right through by the air flow diffused by a hair dryer, in accordance with one prior state of the technique for the second, and corresponding to the invention for the last.
- the present invention relates to a hair brush with a cylindrical, semi-cylindrical or flat head, closed at its two transverse ends and having a plurality of openings making it possible, in accordance with the invention, to create an original and improved dynamic effect of the air powered by a hand dryer.
- this brush is composed of a handle 1 allowing the manipulation of the tool and in the extension of which the head 2 is fixed, that is to say the part serving to smooth, or to wind, and to put the hair in the desired shape.
- This head 2 has bristles or inserted tips 3 used to smooth and shape the hair.
- the present invention applies equally to hair brushes whose head 2, at least partially hollowed out, is of the cylindrical, semi-cylindrical or flat type, and has, at least in the zone provided with bristles or tips 3, through holes 5 which are either parallelepipedic, cylindrical or elongated, the latter then extending perpendicularly and / or parallel to the longitudinal axis 4 of the brush.
- the brush according to the invention is remarkable in that the axes 6 of the two orifices 7 of each of the through holes 5 form between them an angle ⁇ less than 90 ° (see Figures 1 and 12).
- the air flow 9 propelled by the dryer 8 and drying the lock of hair 11 from above then penetrating inside the head of the brush by a first orifice 7 of the through hole 5 will emerge at 10 and dry also the lock of hair 11 from below, as if the second air flow 10 was propelled by the head 2 of the brush.
- the angle J3 is advantageously between 30 ° and 60 ° and is preferably close to 45 °.
- the head 2 of the brush according to the invention comprises at least one recess 14 (in the present case two recesses) which extends parallel to the longitudinal axis 4 and which is closed at its two transverse ends, respectively front 15 and rear 16.
- each recess 14 there is disposed in a substantially axial plane an insert 17 composed of a longitudinal bar 18 whose ends 19 are embedded and for example clipped into the end walls 15 and 16 of the head 2 of the brush.
- the upper edge 20 of the bar 18 is located substantially in the virtual extension of the surface of the area of the head in which the recess 14 is made while its lower edge 21 is distant from the bottom 22 of the recess.
- the bar 18 extends transversely in the form of multiple parallel branches 23 and regularly spaced.
- the upper or outer edge 25 of each branch 23 is situated substantially in the virtual extension of the surface of the head and the lower or inner edge 24 of said branch bears against the bottom of the recess 14 so that each branch 23 thus constitutes an insulating partition.
- each insert 17 forms with the recess 14 in which it is integrated a plurality of through holes 5 (six in the embodiment shown in Figure 7), the axes 6 of the two orifices 7 of each of such through holes forming between them an angle close to 50 °.
- inserts 17 Different constructions of inserts 17 are conceivable.
- the area of each opening existing between the lower edge 21 of the bar 18 and the bottom 22 of the recess is equal to the area of the openings delimited between two successive branches 23, the bar 18 and the edge in with respect to the recess, respectively 26 and 27.
- the through hole is of constant section and the flow of drying air of the lock of hair undergoes practically no variation.
- the area of each opening existing between the lower edge 21 of the bar 18 and the bottom 22 of the recess 14 is less than that of at least one of the two openings delimited between two successive branches 23, the bar 18 and the edge opposite the recess, respectively 26 and 27.
