Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hot air hair styling device with a hot air blower and an airflow generated by the hot air blower Hair care part. Furthermore, the invention relates to a hair care part, which is designed as an attachment for a hot air blower.
  • Hot air hair styling devices are each for different hair styling purposes designed. Are known each hot air hair styling devices that as Curling iron, designed as a hair straightener or as an airbrush. To hair to mold using such devices, this must be a user three devices each available. This also means that sufficient Space and a sufficient number of electrical connections must be present in order to use these and possibly other hair care equipment to be able to bring the hair into the desired shape.
  • a hair care part which is either part of a hot air hair styling device is or designed as an attachment for a hot air blower can be two articulated arms connected in a scissor-like manner intended. Between the two arms a first hair styling gap is defined, being a shaping of the sandwiched between the two arms Hair according to the surface shape of each other pointing sides of the arms is possible.
  • the needed for hair shaping Heat is provided by a hot air blower whose airflow is in at least one flow channel of the hair care part enters and out Air outlet openings at least one of the two arms exits to To get the inserted in the first hair styling hair.
  • To this Purpose are at least partially in one arm air outlet openings introduced, in conjunction with the one flow channel stand.
  • the two arms are hollow inside and thus each having a flow channel and formed by air outlet openings characterized.
  • At least one of the two arms includes one partially curved curved outer surface, for example the outer arm opposite the other arm.
  • This associated with a curved surface is a pivotable opposite this hair-stored hair styling finger, the longitudinal extent of the Lengthwise of this arm follows.
  • the surface facing the arm the hair styling finger is complementary to the curved Surface of the arm.
  • a second hair styling gap is formed, which is between this arm and the hair styling finger.
  • this to his Operation expediently has an operating lever, with the second hair styling gap opened against the force of a spring element Hair can be inserted into the hairline nip and the curvature of the arm as well as the hair styling finger under at the same time Supply of hot air to be formed.
  • This is the hair care part usable as curling iron.
  • the first hair styling is usable as a hair straightener. Due to the pivotal arrangement of the one arm with respect to the Another arm can also in the first hairline gap without further hair be inserted and removed from this again.
  • pointing surfaces of the two arms can also be a Have topography, for example, be wavy, so that then made in the first hairstyle mold crimping hair can be.
  • a topography may also be after Be kind of a volumizer trained.
  • the hair care part via a brush attachment have the arms in common with each other and thus enclose them can be placed. It is useful if through the brush attachment also the hair styling finger is included.
  • the brush attachment has air outlet openings between its bristles or bristle tufts on, so that from the at least one arm through the air outlet openings exiting warm air also between the Bristles or bristle tufts emerge and to the hair to be formed can get.
  • the hair care part is used as an airbrush or aircurler.
  • this hair care part is thus a hair shaping with a single Device feasible, which formerly several individual devices were necessary. Shaping hair is not only about this hair care part The number of devices simplified, but hair styling is also faster feasible because a device change is no longer necessary.
  • one of the two arms is a tubular connector in which the provided by the hot air blower Warm air flows in.
  • the connector serves as a coupling piece, with the hair care part to a hot air blower, for example, formed as a handle, can be placed.
  • the connector then points expediently locking means for fixing the hair care part on the handle on, about a bayonet lock.
  • This arm then forms the basis for the two other elements for training the respective hair shape column. These are the other elements to form the first hair styling gap around the other arm and for forming the second hair styling gap around the hair styling finger.
  • Haarformfingers serves a suitably bow-like trained Operating lever, the part of the pivotally hinged to the one arm another arm is.
  • the actuating lever preferably extends up to that side of the hair care part, at the one associated with the hair styling finger Operating lever provided for opening the second hair styling gap is.
  • both are scissors-like elements of the hair care part from the same side, for example with the thumb.
  • fixed element is fixed, such as a bolt.
  • the brush attachment for example, an open, cylindrical Ring bodies comprise, from which the bristles or bristle tufts radially are arranged protruding outwards.
  • This ring body is suitably material elastic, so that putting on the brush attachment on the two arms effortlessly possible and also a sufficient firm seat for operating the hair care part as an airbrush or aircurler is guaranteed.
  • To achieve an anti-rotation between the Brush attachment and the other components of the hair care part can serve the hair styling finger, which in such a configuration in a Groove of the brush attachment engages, so that form-fitting twisting of the brush attachment opposite the two arms received therein and the hair styling finger received therein is prevented.
  • the brush attachment a closed cylindrical ring body, from which the bristles or bristle tufts are arranged projecting radially outward. This Brush attachment is on the two closed arms of the hair care part postponed.
  • a hair care part 1 is designed as an attachment, which on a hot air blower, which is integrated in a handle, can be placed.
  • the hair care part 1 comprises a tubular connector 2, with which the hair care part 1 can be attached to such a handle.
  • An objective unit with the connector 2 forming is a first arm 3 is provided.
  • the arm 3 includes a front rounded Tip 4 and a section 5, introduced in the air outlet openings L. are.
  • the arm 3 is hollow inside, a flow channel forming together with the connector 2.
  • the air outlet openings extend L over the entire section 5 circumferentially.
  • a second arm 6 is pivotally hinged to the connector 2.
  • the pivot axis is identified by the reference numeral 7.
  • Of the Arm 6 is basically constructed as the arm 3 and thus also inside hollow, wherein the cavity of the arm 6 also a flow channel represents, in the position shown in Figure 1 of the arm 6 of Air flow received by the connector 2 is also proportionate flows. Due to the pivotable arrangement of the second arm 6 opposite The first arm 3, the two arms 3, 6 scissor-like to each other movable.
  • the second arm 6 comprises a bow-like Operating lever 8 of the outside on both sides of the connector 2 and thus including this towards the page of the connecting piece 2, on which the first arm 3 is arranged, extends. In the position of the second arm 6 shown in FIG this locked by means not shown with the connector 2.
  • a spring element against the lock acts a spring element, so that when opening the locking of the arm 6 swings open.
  • a first hair styling gap 9 is formed between the two arms 3, 6, a first hair styling gap 9 is formed.
  • the two facing sides of the Arms 3, 6 are substantially planar, as shown in FIG. 3, in the form of so that in the hair styling gap 9 inserted hairs are smoothed can.
  • the arm 3 is associated with a Haarformfinger 10, whose to the arm. 3 facing surface complementary to the curved outside of the Poor 3 is formed. This arrangement is particularly in the Figure 3 shown.
  • the hair styling finger 10 is the same as the second arm 6 pivotable on the first arm 3 and the connecting piece. 2 articulated unit formed objective.
  • the pivot axis is with designated by the reference numeral 11.
  • To operate the hair styling finger 10 is an actuating lever 12, against the force of a in the Figures not shown spring element according to the in Figure 2 shown direction is pivotable, so that by such actuation a second hair styling gap 13 between the top of the first Poor 3 and the hair styling finger 10 is formed.
  • the curved surface of the first arm 3 and the corresponding complementary embodiment of the hair styling finger 10 is the hair styling gap 3 for forming individual curls.
  • the brush attachment 14 comprises a cylindrical open ring body 15, from the radially outwardly projecting individual bristles B arranged are.
