Ces objectifs sont atteints selon l'invention par un accessoire destiné à s'adapter sur un appareil de coiffure électrique à flux d'air comprenant : un manchon creux présentant un axe longitudinal capable de se monter sur l'appareil de coiffure, le manchon comprenant un ensemble de touffes de soies et un ensemble d'ouvertures traversantes aptes à faire passer le flux d'air, caractérisé en ce que le manchon comprend un premier corps creux muni d'un premier ensemble de touffes de soies émergeant dudit premier corps, et d'un premier ensemble d'ouvertures traversantes apte à faire passer un flux d'air, un deuxième corps creux muni d'un deuxième ensemble de touffes de soies émergeant dudit deuxième corps et d'un deuxième ensemble d'ouvertures traversantes aptes à faire passer un flux d'air et en ce que le deuxième corps est différent du premier corps et présente une partie apte à être fixée de façon amovible au moins partiellement sur le premier corps. Ces objectifs sont atteints également par un appareil de coiffure électrique à flux d'air comprenant une entrée d'air, un élément chauffant, un ventilateur, un moyen d'entraînement du ventilateur et une section de sortie d'air soufflé, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte un accessoire de coiffure selon l'invention. Les aspects principaux de l'invention sont les suivants : These objectives are achieved according to the invention by an accessory adapted to fit on an electric airflow hairdressing appliance comprising: a hollow sleeve having a longitudinal axis capable of being mounted on the hairdressing appliance, the sleeve comprising a set of bristle tufts and a set of through-openings capable of passing the flow of air, characterized in that the sleeve comprises a first hollow body provided with a first set of bristle tufts emerging from said first body, and a first set of through openings capable of passing a flow of air, a second hollow body provided with a second set of tufts of bristles emerging from said second body and a second set of through openings capable of making passing a flow of air and in that the second body is different from the first body and has a portion adapted to be fixed removably at least partially on the first body. These objectives are also achieved by an electric air-flow hairdresser comprising an air inlet, a heating element, a fan, a fan drive means and a blown air outlet section, characterized in that it comprises a hairdressing accessory according to the invention. The main aspects of the invention are as follows:
L'invention concerne un accessoire (1 ) pour appareil de mise en forme de cheveux destiné à s'adapter sur un appareil de coiffure (100) électrique à flux d'air comprenant : un manchon (10, 20) creux présentant un axe longitudinal (L) capable de se monter sur l'appareil de coiffure (100), le manchon comprenant un ensemble de touffes de soies (1 1 , 1 1 ', 1 1 ", 21 ) et un ensemble d'ouvertures traversantes (12, 22) aptes à faire passer le flux d'air, caractérisé en ce que le manchon comprend un premier corps (10) creux muni d'un premier ensemble de touffes de soies (1 1 , 1 1 ', 1 1 ") émergeant dudit corps (10), et d'un premier ensemble d'ouvertures traversantes (12) aptes à faire passer un flux d'air, un deuxième corps (20) creux muni d'un deuxième ensemble de touffes (21 ) de soies émergeant dudit deuxième corps (20) et d'un deuxième ensemble d'ouvertures traversantes (22) aptes à faire passer un flux d'air, et en ce que le deuxième corps (20) est différent du premier corps et présente une partie (24, 25) apte à être fixée de façon amovible au moins partiellement sur le premier corps (10). On peut donc utiliser le premier corps de l'accessoire pour venir y fixer un deuxième corps différent du premier. On obtient une première configuration d'usage connue avec le premier corps ayant une première surface de traitement, et une deuxième configuration d'usage non connu avec le deuxième corps fixé sur le premier corps mais ayant une surface de traitement différente de celle du premier corps. Ceci permet un gain d'encombrement, une réduction des coûts, et un traitement avec des configurations et/ou des natures de soies différentes pour que l'accessoire s'adapte à différentes longueurs de cheveux et/ou différentes natures de cheveux notamment.  An accessory (1) for a hair shaping apparatus for fitting onto an electric air flow hairdressing apparatus (100) comprising: a hollow sleeve (10, 20) having a longitudinal axis (L) capable of mounting on the hairdressing apparatus (100), the sleeve comprising a set of bristle tufts (1 1, 1 1 ', 1 1 ", 21) and a set of through apertures (12, 22) adapted to pass the flow of air, characterized in that the sleeve comprises a first hollow body (10) provided with a first set of bristle tufts (1 1, 1 1 ', 1 1 ") emerging from said body (10), and a first set of through openings (12) able to pass an air flow, a second hollow body (20) provided with a second set of tufts (21) of bristles emerging from said second body (20) and a second set of through-openings (22) capable of passing a stream of air, and in that the second body (20) is different from the first body and has a portion (24, 25) adapted to be fixed removably at least partially on the first body (10). We can use the first body of the accessory to come and fix a second body different from the first. A first known usage configuration is obtained with the first body having a first treatment surface, and a second non-known use configuration with the second body attached to the first body but having a different treatment surface from the first body . This allows a gain in size, a reduction in costs, and a treatment with configurations and / or natures of different bristles for the accessory to adapt to different lengths of hair and / or different natures of hair including.
On entend par «soies» tout type de poils, naturels ou synthétiques, de picots par exemple en plastique ou l'ensemble des deux, qui permettent d'accrocher et/ou d'entraîner la mèche de cheveux pendant son traitement par l'accessoire-brosse. Les soies peuvent être de natures différentes, mais aussi de longueurs différentes, pour s'adapter à tout type de cheveux ou toute longueur de cheveux. Les soies peuvent être groupées par touffes de plusieurs ou être individuelles s'il s'agit de picot par exemple. Avantageusement le deuxième corps 20 peut présenter un troisième ensemble comprenant au moins une ouverture traversante secondaire (23, 23') destinée à laisser passer au moins partiellement le premier ensemble de touffes de soies (1 1 ', 1 1 ") émergeant du premier corps 10. L'accessoire laisse ainsi émerger de son manchon global au moins une partie des soies du premier corps et les soies du deuxième corps. Les soies représentent un coût non négligeable dans le prix de fabrication d'un tel accessoire et utiliser les soies du premier corps dans cette configuration permet de réduire le nombre de soies du deuxième corps et le prix de l'accessoire. The term "bristles" means any type of hair, natural or synthetic, pins for example plastic or both, which allow to hang and / or train the lock of hair during its treatment by the accessory -brush. The bristles can be of different natures, but also of different lengths, to adapt to any type of hair or any length of hair. The bristles can be grouped by tufts of several or be individual if it is picnic for example. Advantageously, the second body 20 may have a third assembly comprising at least one secondary through opening (23, 23 ') intended to pass at least partially the first set of bristle tufts (1 1', 1 1 ") emerging from the first body 10. The accessory thus emerges from its overall sleeve at least a portion of the bristles of the first body and the bristles of the second body.The bristles represent a significant cost in the manufacturing cost of such an accessory and use the bristles of the body. first body in this configuration can reduce the number of bristles of the second body and the price of the accessory.
Avantageusement le deuxième corps 20 est apte à coulisser le long d'au moins une partie de la surface extérieure 15 du premier corps 10. Le deuxième corps coulisse en contact sur une partie du premier corps. Les deux corps sont ainsi solidaires l'un de l'autre pendant le traitement des cheveux et la rotation manuelle ou motorisée de l'accessoire-brosse. Ceci a pour effet la fixation amovible hors fonctionnement du deuxième corps sur le premier corps. Alternativement, le deuxième corps peut comprendre deux pièces longitudinales symétriques montées sur charnière intérieure et venant se clipper pour recouvrir le premier corps et s'y attacher. Advantageously, the second body 20 is able to slide along at least a portion of the outer surface 15 of the first body 10. The second body slides in contact with a portion of the first body. The two bodies are thus integral with each other during the treatment of the hair and the manual or motorized rotation of the brush accessory. This has the effect of detachable attachment of the second body to the first body. Alternatively, the second body may comprise two symmetrical longitudinal parts mounted on inner hinge and coming to clip to cover the first body and attach to it.
Avantageusement le premier corps 10 peut présenter une forme extérieure cylindrique dont l'axe de symétrie (S) est confondu ou coaxial à l'axe longitudinal (L) de l'accessoire et le deuxième corps 20 peut présenter en section orthogonale à l'axe de symétrie (S) une surface extérieure ovale et symétrique selon au moins le premier plan (P1 ) contenant l'axe longitudinal (L). Advantageously, the first body 10 may have a cylindrical outer shape whose axis of symmetry (S) is coincidental or coaxial with the longitudinal axis (L) of the accessory and the second body 20 may have a section orthogonal to the axis of symmetry (S) an oval and symmetrical outer surface according to at least the first plane (P1) containing the longitudinal axis (L).
On entend par surface extérieure du manchon ou de chaque corps la surface qui est destinée à être en contact avec la mèche de cheveux à traiter. Cette forme en section orthogonale à l'axe longitudinal de l'accessoire permet de ne plus fournir, comme pour un corps à section orthogonale circulaire ou ronde de l'art antérieur, un effort constant sur la mèche de cheveux. La forme extérieure autre que circulaire permet, quand l'accessoire est entraîné en rotation manuelle ou automatique, de fournir une traction et/ou une tension sur la mèche qui n'est pas constante et ainsi de renforcer l'effet de brushing. By outer surface of the sleeve or each body is meant the surface that is intended to be in contact with the lock of hair to be treated. This shape in section orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of the accessory makes it possible to no longer provide, as for a body with orthogonal circular or round section of the prior art, a constant force on the lock of hair. The external shape other than circular allows, when the accessory is driven in manual rotation or automatic, to provide traction and / or tension on the wick that is not constant and thus enhance the blow-drying effect.
Cette forme non circulaire, ovale par exemple, en section orthogonale à l'axe de symétrie (S) du premier corps cylindrique permet de ne plus fournir, comme pour un corps à section orthogonale circulaire ou ronde de l'art antérieur, un effort constant sur la mèche de cheveux. La forme extérieure différente de la forme circulaire permet, quand l'accessoire est entraîné en rotation manuelle ou automatique, de fournir une traction et/ou une tension sur la mèche qui n'est pas constante et qui est plus forte quand la mèche est accrochée à l'une des deux extrémités de la brosse ovale : ceci renforce l'effet et la durabilité du brushing. De plus la mèche de cheveux restera en contact avec une plus grand surface donc les cheveux en contact avec la surface seront plus longtemps soumis à la traction et à l'air soufflé. Ceci permet de reproduire au mieux le geste du professionnel qui réalise le brushing avec une brosse dans la main et un sèche-cheveux dans l'autre main. This non-circular shape, oval, for example, in section orthogonal to the axis of symmetry (S) of the first cylindrical body makes it possible no longer to provide, as for a circular or round orthogonal section body of the prior art, a constant effort on the lock of hair. The different external shape of the circular shape allows, when the accessory is driven in manual or automatic rotation, to provide traction and / or tension on the wick which is not constant and which is stronger when the wick is hooked. at one end of the oval brush: this enhances the effect and durability of the brushing. In addition, the lock of hair will remain in contact with a larger surface so that the hair in contact with the surface will be longer subjected to traction and air blowing. This allows to reproduce at best the gesture of the professional who makes the brushing with a brush in the hand and a hair dryer in the other hand.
La section du deuxième corps peut être ovale et nous définirons un petit axe r de l'ovale et un grand axe R de l'ovale pour la bonne compréhension de l'invention. The section of the second body may be oval and we will define a small axis r of the oval and a major axis R of the oval for the proper understanding of the invention.
Avantageusement, le deuxième corps 20 peut présenter, en section orthogonale à l'axe de symétrie (S), une surface extérieure symétrique selon au moins un deuxième plan (P2) orthogonal au premier plan (P1 ). Pour une rotation complète, le mouvement imprimé comporte deux fois le même traitement de la mèche de cheveux. Advantageously, the second body 20 may have, in section orthogonal to the axis of symmetry (S), a symmetrical outer surface in at least a second plane (P2) orthogonal to the first plane (P1). For a complete rotation, the printed movement has twice the same treatment of the lock of hair.
La section du deuxième corps peut être elliptique et nous définirons un petit axe r de l'ellipse pour la symétrie selon le premier plan et un grand axe R de l'ellipse pour la symétrie selon l'autre plan pour la bonne compréhension de l'invention. The section of the second body may be elliptical and we will define a small axis r of the ellipse for the symmetry in the first plane and a major axis R of the ellipse for the symmetry in the other plane for the proper understanding of the invention.
Avantageusement, en section orthogonale à l'axe de symétrie (L), le petit axe (r) de l'ovale formé par le deuxième corps (20) de l'accessoire selon l'invention est sensiblement égal au rayon (D/2) du cercle formé par le premier corps (10). Ceci permet de coulisser le deuxième corps sur le premier corps. Advantageously, in section orthogonal to the axis of symmetry (L), the minor axis (r) of the oval formed by the second body (20) of the accessory according to the invention is substantially equal to the radius (D / 2 ) of the circle formed by the first body (10). This allows to slide the second body on the first body.
Avantageusement, la surface extérieure (Sext) du deuxième corps (20) présente un rapport de son grand axe (R) sur son petit axe (r) supérieur à 1 ,1 préférentiellement supérieur à 1 ,5. Plus le rapport est grand plus la traction exercée sur les cheveux à chaque passage en contact avec le point correspondant au grand axe sera grande. Advantageously, the outer surface (Sext) of the second body (20) has a ratio of its major axis (R) on its minor axis (r) greater than 1, 1 preferably greater than 1, 5. The higher the ratio, the greater the tension exerted on the hair at each passage in contact with the point corresponding to the major axis.
Avantageusement, au moins partiellement des touffes de soies (1 1 ) du premier corps (10) ont une longueur telle qu'elles sont enfermées dans le deuxième corps quand celui-ci est fixé sur le premier corps (10). Les touffes sont enfermées sans être pliées ou endommagées. Par exemple, en section orthogonale à l'axe de symétrie (S), le grand axe de l'ovale formé par le deuxième corps 20 peut être supérieur ou égal au rayon du cercle formé par le premier corps 10 ajouté à la longueur des soies 1 1 émergeant du premier corps 10. Ceci permet que certaines soies ou certains picots du premier corps restent entièrement à l'intérieur du deuxième corps et ne soient pas utilisés dans la configuration d'assemblage des deux corps. Avantageusement, le deuxième ensemble d'ouvertures traversantes 22 peut comprendre au moins une rangée d'ouvertures oblongues agencées parallèles l'une à l'autre. Ceci a pour effet d'optimiser la sortie du flux d'air hors de l'accessoire brosse. Selon une variante de l'invention, le premier ensemble de touffes de soies (1 1 , 1 1 ', 1 1 ") peut comprendre au moins une ligne droite de touffes de soies parallèle à l'axe longitudinal (L) et au moins une des ouvertures traversantes secondaires (23) peut être oblongue et parallèle à l'axe longitudinal (L) de l'accessoire pour faire passer au moins une ligne de touffes de soies. Ceci a pour effet de laisser passer les rangées de touffes de soies du premier corps au travers d'ouvertures oblongues du deuxième corps et de limiter l'endommagement des soies du premier corps quand le deuxième corps est installé sur le premier. Dans cette variante, le premier corps 10 peut présenter six premiers ensembles de touffes de soies (1 1 , 1 1 ', 1 1 "), le deuxième corps (20) peut présenter quatre ouvertures traversantes secondaires (23) laissant passer chacune un des six premiers ensembles de touffes de soies. Ceci permet d'utiliser quatre ensemble de touffes de soies du premier corps dans la configuration s'assemblage. Advantageously, at least partially tufts of bristles (1 1) of the first body (10) have a length such that they are enclosed in the second body when it is fixed on the first body (10). Tufts are enclosed without being bent or damaged. For example, in section orthogonal to the axis of symmetry (S), the major axis of the oval formed by the second body 20 may be greater than or equal to the radius of the circle formed by the first body 10 added to the length of the bristles. 1 1 emerging from the first body 10. This allows that some bristles or pins of the first body remain entirely inside the second body and are not used in the assembly configuration of the two bodies. Advantageously, the second set of through openings 22 may comprise at least one row of oblong openings arranged parallel to one another. This has the effect of optimizing the outlet of the air flow out of the brush accessory. According to a variant of the invention, the first set of bristle tufts (1 1, 1 1 ', 1 1 ") may comprise at least one straight line of bristle tufts parallel to the longitudinal axis (L) and at least one of the secondary through-openings (23) may be oblong and parallel to the longitudinal axis (L) of the accessory to pass at least one line of bristle tufts, thereby allowing the rows of bristle tufts to pass through. of the first body through oblong openings of the second body and to limit the damage of the bristles of the first body when the second body is installed on the first body. In this variant, the first body 10 may have six first sets of bristle tufts (1 1, 1 1 ', 1 1 "), the second body (20) may have four secondary through openings (23) each permitting one of the The first six sets of bristle tufts make it possible to use four sets of bristle tufts of the first body in the assembly configuration.
Toujours dans cette variante, le deuxième corps 20 peut présenter quatre ensembles de touffes 21 de soies. Ceci permet qu'un nombre de touffes de soies émergeant de l'accessoire en configuration d'assemblage soit égal à dix. Still in this variant, the second body 20 may have four sets of tufts 21 of bristles. This allows a number of tufts of bristles emerging from the accessory in assembly configuration to be equal to ten.
Avantageusement le premier corps 10 peut présenter une base 14 apte à se monter sur une section de sortie 204 d'un appareil de coiffure électrique 100 à flux d'air. Ainsi seul le premier corps 10 nécessite une partie de montage ou fixation de l'accessoire sur la brosse. Advantageously, the first body 10 may have a base 14 adapted to be mounted on an outlet section 204 of an electric hairdressing appliance 100 with an air flow. Thus only the first body 10 requires a mounting part or attachment of the accessory on the brush.
Avantageusement, l'accessoire peut comporter des moyens de verrouillage 30 du deuxième corps 20 sur l'accessoire. Ceci permet d'éviter, après fixation du deuxième corps sur le premier, que le deuxième corps glisse sur le premier selon l'axe de symétrie du premier corps. Advantageously, the accessory may comprise locking means 30 of the second body 20 on the accessory. This avoids, after fixing the second body on the first, that the second body slides on the first along the axis of symmetry of the first body.
Et dans cette alternative, les moyens de verrouillage 30 peuvent comprendre un capuchon 30 apte à se fixer sur l'extrémité distale 13 du premier corps 10. Ceci permet de maintenir le deuxième corps entre la base 14 du premier corps de l'appareil et le moyen de verrouillage. And in this alternative, the locking means 30 may comprise a cap 30 adapted to be fixed on the distal end 13 of the first body 10. This makes it possible to maintain the second body between the base 14 of the first body of the apparatus and the locking means.
Ces objectifs techniques sont aussi atteints selon une deuxième partie de l'invention par un appareil de coiffure 100 électrique à flux d'air comprenant une entrée d'air 202, un élément chauffant 205, un ventilateur 207, un moyen d'entraînement du ventilateur 206 et une section de sortie 204 d'air soufflé, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte un accessoire de coiffure selon l'invention. L'accessoire peut alors est fixé à demeure sur l'appareil et seulement le deuxième corps de l'accessoire est amovible pour gérer les deux configurations. Alternativement, l'accessoire complet est amovible pour réduire l'encombrement ou permettre l'agencement d'autres accessoires. These technical objectives are also achieved according to a second part of the invention by an electric airflow hairdressing apparatus 100 comprising an air inlet 202, a heating element 205, a fan 207, a fan drive means 206 and an outlet section 204 of blown air, characterized in that it comprises a hairdressing accessory according to the invention. The accessory can then be permanently attached to the device and only the second body of the accessory is removable to manage both configurations. Alternatively, the complete accessory is removable to reduce clutter or allow the arrangement of other accessories.
Selon cette partie de l'invention, l'appareil peut être une brosse soufflante linéaire dont la poignée présente un axe longitudinal (L') coaxial ou parallèle à l'axe longitudinal (L) de l'accessoire 1 . Alternativement, selon cette partie de l'invention, l'appareil peut être un sèche-cheveux dont la poignée présente un axe sensiblement orthogonal à l'axe longitudinal (L) de l'accessoire. According to this part of the invention, the apparatus may be a linear blower brush whose handle has a longitudinal axis (L ') coaxial or parallel to the longitudinal axis (L) of the accessory 1. Alternatively, according to this part of the invention, the apparatus may be a hair dryer whose handle has an axis substantially orthogonal to the longitudinal axis (L) of the accessory.

Avant fonctionnement, l'utilisateur peut choisir un accessoire et l'insérer dans la section de sortie de l'appareil jusqu'à ce qu'une protubérance circulaire interne à la section de sortie 204 du boîtier 200 rentre dans une rainure circulaire 47 de la base 14 correspondante. L'homme du métier peut envisager tout type de fixation comme des ergots qui arrivent au fond de baïonnettes. L'appareil est alors prêt à fonctionner, l'utilisateur actionne un bouton 220 de mise en marche du premier moteur 206 qui permet au flux d'air chaud de sortir par les ouvertures 12 de l'accessoire 1 . Un bouton 221 peut être prévu pour couper l'alimentation de l'élément chauffant 205 en vue d'un traitement avec de l'air à température ambiante. Un bouton peut également être prévu pour mettre en marche un générateur d'ions et enrichir d'ions le flux d'air soufflé par la poignée. En actionnant un bouton 222, l'utilisateur met en marche le deuxième moteur 206' d'entraînement de l'accessoire 1 qui commence alors à tourner pour réaliser la mise en forme de la coiffure. Ce bouton permet également d'inverser le sens de rotation du moteur 206 ou de faire varier sa vitesse. L'utilisateur peut aussi, hors fonctionnement, placer le deuxième corps 20 à section ovale en le faisant coulisser sur le premier corps 10 de l'accessoire déjà en place sur la brosse électrique. L'utilisateur choisira (ou sera amené par une construction judicieuse à choisir) la position du deuxième corps 20 de sorte que, pendant le coulissement du deuxième corps 20, certaines rangées de soies 1 1 " du premier corps passent au travers des ouvertures oblongues longitudinales 23 et d'autres rangées de soie 1 1 du premier corps seront agencées à l'intérieur du deuxième corps sans être pliées ou endommagées. Before operation, the user can choose an accessory and insert it into the output section of the apparatus until a circular protrusion internal to the outlet section 204 of the housing 200 fits into a circular groove 47 of the corresponding base 14. The skilled person can consider any type of fixation as lugs that arrive at the bottom of bayonets. The apparatus is then ready for use, the user actuates a button 220 for starting the first motor 206 which allows the flow of hot air to exit through the openings 12 of the accessory 1. A button 221 may be provided to cut off power to the heating element 205 for treatment with room temperature air. A button may also be provided to turn on an ion generator and enrich the air flow blown by the handle with ions. By actuating a button 222, the user starts the second drive motor 206 'of the accessory 1 which then begins to rotate to achieve shaping of the hairstyle. This button also makes it possible to reverse the direction of rotation of the motor 206 or to vary its speed. The user can also, out of operation, place the second body 20 oval section by sliding on the first body 10 of the accessory already in place on the electric brush. The user will choose (or will be led by a judicious construction to choose) the position of the second body 20 so that, during the sliding of the second body 20, certain rows of bristles 1 1 "of the first body pass through longitudinal oblong openings 23 and other rows of silk 1 1 of the first body will be arranged inside the second body without being bent or damaged.
Une fois le deuxième corps mis en place sur le premier corps, l'utilisateur peut verrouiller le deuxième corps 20 sur le premier corps 10 en venant par exemple fixer le capuchon ou bouchon 30 à l'extrémité circulaire 31 du premier corps par le biais d'un système de baïonnettes 13 tel que celui illustré sur la figure 3. Tout autre système de verouillage à la portée de l'homme du métier peut être mise en œuvre : un système de clip, de vis... Once the second body is placed on the first body, the user can lock the second body 20 on the first body 10, for example by fixing the cap or cap 30 at the circular end 31 of the first body through a bayonet system 13 such as that illustrated in Figure 3. Any other locking system within the reach of the skilled person can be implemented: a clip system, screw ...
Ainsi, le fonctionnement et l'efficacité de la brosse munie de l'accessoire «complet» composé d'un unique corps ovale ou de deux corps dont le deuxième est ovale, sont améliorés. En effet, dans l'ordre de traitement quand les cheveux s'enroulent autour de la surface de traitement, la mèche est en traction par les soies agencées sur la surface extérieure Sextl du grand sommet de l'ovale et ensuite est en contact avec la surface extérieure la moins «courbée» Sext2 de l'ovale. La partie de mèche de cheveux entraînée par le grand sommet de l'ellipse subit une plus forte tension que si l'accessoire était une brosse ronde à diamètre égal au plus grand diamètre de l'ovale. La partie de mèche de cheveux en contact avec la surface la moins «courbée» présente une plus grande surface de contact du cheveux avec la surface de traitement que si le corps était un corps cylindrique, donc elle reçoit plus longtemps l'air soufflé, est sous traction plus longtemps et peut fixer la forme du cheveu plus efficacement. Ceci permet un rendu «lissé volumant» sur les cheveux. Thus, the operation and effectiveness of the brush provided with the "complete" accessory consisting of a single oval body or two bodies, the second of which is oval, are improved. Indeed, in the order of treatment when the hair is wrapped around the treatment surface, the wick is in tension by the bristles arranged on the outer surface Sextl of the large apex of the oval and then is in contact with the outer surface the least "curved" Sext2 of the oval. The part of lock of hair driven by the big top of the ellipse undergoes a stronger tension than if the accessory was a round brush with equal diameter to the largest diameter of the oval. The lock portion of the hair in contact with the least "curved" surface has a greater area of contact of the hair with the treatment surface than if the body were a cylindrical body, so it receives longer the blown air, is under traction longer and can fix the shape of the hair more effectively. This allows rendering "volumizing smooth" on the hair.
Les cheveux ne sont jamais totalement enroulés autour de l'accessoire en bon fonctionnement de l'appareil. En effet, pour cet appareil électrique 100 de mise en forme des cheveux, la brosse 1 à cheveux est conformée de telle sorte que l'entraînement en rotation des cheveux à mettre en forme ne se fait qu'à un certain point pour éviter en principe un enroulement complet de la brosse à cheveux 1 dans les cheveux à mettre en forme. Il faut un certain entraînement en rotation afin de maintenir pendant le temps nécessaire les cheveux à mettre en forme dans la position qui produit l'ondulation à réaliser. La chaleur fournie par le flux d'air chaud soutient le processus de mise en forme des cheveux, la brosse à cheveux étant judicieusement conformée à la manière d'une brosse à air et le flux d'air chaud arrivant dans la brosse à cheveux, pénétrant dans le canal d'admission interne de la brosse à cheveux et ressortant dans le sens radial par les ouvertures de sortie situées dans la brosse à cheveux. The hair is never fully wrapped around the accessory in good operation of the device. Indeed, for this electrical appliance 100 of In the form of the hair, the hairbrush 1 is shaped so that the rotation of the hair to be shaped is only at a certain point to avoid in principle a complete winding of the hairbrush 1 in the hair to get in shape. It takes a certain rotational drive to maintain for the necessary time the hair to form in the position that produces the ripple to achieve. The heat provided by the hot air flow supports the process of shaping the hair, the hair brush being judiciously shaped in the manner of an air brush and the flow of hot air into the hairbrush, penetrating the internal intake channel of the hairbrush and radially outwardly through the outlet openings in the hairbrush.
L'entraînement limité en rotation des cheveux à mettre en forme par la brosse à cheveux en rotation est obtenu partiellement en ce que la face supérieure orientée radialement vers l'extérieur de la surface d'enveloppe du corps de la brosse à cheveux présente des propriétés telles que celle-ci ne transmettra sensiblement aucun moment (M) de rotation sur les cheveux. Cette surface est donc judicieusement très lisse et/ou présente un revêtement auquel les cheveux à mettre en forme n'adhèrent pas lors d'une rotation de la brosse à cheveux, tel que cela est par exemple le cas pour un revêtement en polytétrafluoroéthylène (revêtement PTFE). En configurant la surface du ou des corps 10, 20 de la brosse à cheveux de cette manière, l'entraînement en rotation des cheveux à mettre en forme est majoritairement assuré par les poils ou soies de brosse. Ceux-ci sont conçus par leur densité et/ou leur rigidité de telle sorte que d'une part, l'entraînement en rotation des cheveux à mettre en forme s'effectue effectivement lors de la rotation de la brosse à cheveux, mais d'autre part, que cet entraînement en rotation ne s'effectue que sur une partie de la circonférence de la brosse à cheveux, par exemple entre 90° et 270°, plus particulièrement entre 135° et 235°; plus spécifiquement autour de 180°. Les flux d'air sortent radialement des ouvertures traversantes. The limited rotation of the hair to be shaped by the rotating hairbrush is partially achieved by the fact that the radially outwardly facing upper surface of the body surface of the hairbrush has such that it will transmit substantially no moment (M) of rotation on the hair. This surface is therefore judiciously very smooth and / or has a coating to which the hair to be shaped does not adhere during a rotation of the hairbrush, as is for example the case for a coating of polytetrafluoroethylene (coating PTFE). By configuring the surface of the body or bodies 10, 20 of the hairbrush in this manner, the rotational drive of the hair to be shaped is mainly provided by the bristles or bristles. These are designed by their density and / or their rigidity so that on the one hand, the rotational drive of the hair to be shaped actually occurs during the rotation of the hair brush, but on the other hand, that this rotation drive takes place only on a part of the circumference of the hairbrush, for example between 90 ° and 270 °, more particularly between 135 ° and 235 °; more specifically around 180 °. The air flows radially out of the through openings.
D'autres variantes et modes de réalisation de l'invention peuvent être envisagés sans sortir du cadre de ses revendications. Ainsi, le moteur d'entraînement de l'accessoire peut être couplé à son arbre de sortie avec un mécanisme de transformation de son mouvement de rotation en un mouvement de translation alternative ou en un mouvement vibratoire, etc. à utiliser avec différents types d'accessoires. Other variants and embodiments of the invention may be envisaged without departing from the scope of its claims. Thus, the drive motor of the accessory can be coupled to its output shaft with a mechanism for transforming its rotational movement into an alternating translation movement or a vibratory movement, etc. to use with different types of accessories.
Ainsi, l'appareil de coiffure soufflant peut être une brosse totalement longitudinale dont l'axe de l'accessoire et parallèle ou confondu avec l'axe du boîtier de préhension, ou bien peut être un sèche-cheveux de forme pistolet classique dont l'axe de l'accessoire sera substantiellement perpendiculaire à celui de la poignée de préhension. Thus, the blowing hairdressing apparatus may be a totally longitudinal brush whose axis of the accessory and parallel or coincides with the axis of the gripping housing, or may be a conventional gun-shaped hair dryer of which the axis of the accessory will be substantially perpendicular to that of the grip handle.
