Definitions
- the present invention relates to a hairdressing appliance which is intended for the shaping of the hair, in particular the smoothing of the hair of a person.
- the devices of the straightener type generally comprise two pivoting jaws each comprising an end supporting a treatment surface, at least one of the treatment surfaces being heated, the other being intended to bring the hair into contact with the first, in particular by passing from an opening position of the jaws allowing the insertion of the hair to a closed position for their contact with the heating part.
- the other end of the jaws form two half-handles acting as a gripping area and to move from the open position to the closing position.
- the passage is done manually by pressing the two half-handles articulated of the device towards each other to bring the heating part in contact with the hair. Smoothing a lock of hair is done by moving the device along the wick, from the root to the tip.
- the area of contact of the hair with the treatment surfaces is weak.
- the hot breath of the device does not allow smoothing as in a smoothing pliers, the smoothed hairstyle has a greater volume effect.
- this type of device has a bulky structure making its use difficult and impractical.
- WO03 / 077702A also describes a smoothing device.
- the object of the present invention is to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks and to provide a hair treatment apparatus that allows a fast and effective treatment of the hair, while being easy and convenient to use.
- Another object of the invention is a hair treatment apparatus which is of simplified structure, compact and can be industrialized for a low cost. These objects are achieved with a hairdressing apparatus according to claim 1.
- the lock of hair is pinched in two non-parallel planes, that is to say, in contact with the treatment surfaces or even pinch mechanically with a higher or lower pressure between the treatment surfaces in two non-parallel planes, which increases the surface of the hair in contact with the treatment surfaces and thus increase the efficiency of a passage of the apparatus on a strand at the smoothing result.
- the lock of hair is in contact with the treatment surfaces for a smoothing passage in two different planes, these two planes being for example perpendicular to the direction of movement of the device along the wick of hair.
- the two planes may be inclined non-perpendicularly but sufficient to form two non-parallel planes.
- the second plane representing the plane of the complementary surfaces can form from the first plane representing the plane of the main surfaces in a transverse axis an angle that can take values between O (not included) and 90 ° (perpendicular included), or even between 55 ° and 85 °, preferably around 60 ° (i.e. having one-third smoothing surfaces inclined relative to the right angle).
- the first plane and the second plane are perpendicular.
- This arrangement makes it possible to obtain a lock of hair that locally has a substantially rectangular section, because of its position between the treatment surfaces, its contact with the treatment surfaces, or even its mechanical nip between the perpendicular treatment surfaces; the wick is thus treated on four sides.
- the main smoothing zone comprises at least two plates each extending in a plane parallel to the longitudinal axis of each jaw.
- the complementary smoothing zone comprises a plurality of parallel surfaces making it possible to split the lock of hair into several fine locks.
- the main smoothing zone comprises a first smoothing plate having a longitudinal axis L (axis of the straightener handle generally) and the complementary smoothing zone has a plurality of surfaces parallel to each other and which are non-orthogonal to the longitudinal axis L, for example are deviated by an angle between 5 and 20 ° with respect to the orthogonality.
- the hair is thus separated into several locks and is deflected between 5 ° and 20 ° (10 to 15 ° preferred), which has the advantageous effect of curbing their passage and thus of being able to increase the heat transfer with respect to the same surface of contact.
- This arrangement makes it possible, by multiplying the treatment surfaces, to have a large number of hair in contact with these surfaces and by treating fine locks to have the majority of the hair of the wick in contact with the treatment surfaces.
- the complementary smoothing zone has a plurality of parallel surfaces represented by at least one row of teeth whose thickness is smaller than the height and the width.
- This zone may be a toothed device, namely a comb having a row of teeth, aligned or staggered, or at least two substantially parallel combs arranged next to each other, whose respective teeth are located in the same plan or staggered.
- a combination of at least two adjacent combs makes it possible to produce a complementary smoothing zone which will heat the wick in two successive steps and separated by a non-heating zone of the wick between the two combs, causing less damage to the hair on a passage.
- the separation in fine locks also allows to obtain a core temperature of the wick sufficient for good treatment.
- the main smoothing zone and the complementary smoothing zone are thermally independent.
- thermally independent it is understood that the heating of the main smoothing zone can be controlled independently of the heating of the complementary smoothing zone.
- This arrangement makes it possible to independently adjust the temperature of each smoothing zone according to the type of hair, the state of the hair or the desired result.
- the heating main smoothing zone may be formed of a first plate and a second plate and the complementary smoothing zone may be formed of a toothed device, the first plate and the second plate and the device with smoothing teeth each being in contact with a heating element.
- a main smoothing zone and a thermally dependent complementary smoothing zone By thermally dependent, it is understood that the heating of the main smoothing zone can be controlled depending on the heating of the complementary smoothing zone. It is possible to provide a single heating element in thermal contact and supplying the main smoothing zone and the complementary smoothing zone of one and the same jaw. This reduces the size in the jaw concerned and reduce to a single thermal control that of the jaw concerned. This reduces manufacturing costs.
- the heating main smoothing zone is formed of a first plate and a second plate and the complementary smoothing zone comprises a toothed device, the first plate being in contact with a heating element, the second plate and the smoothing tooth device being in thermal contact with a single heating element.
- the main smoothing zone and the complementary smoothing zone of the same jaw or both jaws are made in two different parts.
- the main smoothing zone and the complementary smoothing zone of the same jaw or both jaws are made in a single piece .
- the complementary smoothing zone is removable.
- the complementary smoothing zone having a number and shape of given treatment surfaces may be replaced by another complementary smoothing zone having a number and shape of different treatment surfaces.
- This arrangement makes it possible to adapt the complementary smoothing zone according to the type of hair and type of desired smoothing result.
- the main smoothing zone is adjacent to the complementary smoothing zone.
- a first smoothing effect in a first plane is obtained by passing the wick treated in contact with the heating main smoothing zone, and before or after a second smoothing effect is obtained according to a second plane not parallel to the first by passing the treated lock in contact with the heating complementary smoothing zone.
- the adjacency of the zones can make it possible to come into contact with and treat the hair in a first plane at a first temperature and then in a second plane at a second temperature which may be different from the first temperature.
- this can allow an easier regulation of the temperature. In the hair, this can make it possible to come into contact with and treat the hair with a high temperature while limiting a thermal transfer too fast and / or too high applied to the lock of hair and which could damage it.
- This guard zone may correspond to a heated zone or not but with which the hair is not in contact when it is between the main smoothing zone and the complementary smoothing zone or of which it is sufficiently thermally insulated.
- the area in the last case corresponds to a zone of thermal insulation.
- This guard zone has a width of between 0.05 and 2 cm, preferably between 0.5 and 2 mm.
- the complementary smoothing zone is arranged on the lower jaw and the upper jaw comprises a protective cover arranged opposite the complementary smoothing zone.
- This arrangement makes it possible to create a hot chamber in which is enclosed the complementary smoothing zone and the hair in the closed position of the apparatus, which has the advantage of minimizing thermal losses in the air and therefore increasing the performance of the device.
- the protective cover also makes it possible to drive the fine strands of hair into the treatment surfaces thus favoring heat exchange.
- the protective cover can be made of a different part as illustrated in figure 2 and / or a different material of the protection plate placed on the same branch of the straightener.
- the heating complementary smoothing surface is thus arranged on a jaw without hood facing the other jaw.
- the complementary smoothing zone is located inside the main smoothing zone.
- the device can be used indifferently by the right hand or the left hand.
- one or more heating main smoothing zones may be provided with one or more complementary heating smoothing zones.
- a heating element may be dedicated to several heating zones or a heating element may be associated with each heating zone.
- the complementary smoothing zone comprises a row of pairs of smoothing blades arranged vis-à-vis, at least one of the blades of each pair being mounted movably relative to an adjacent blade fixed in a manner. to allow the pinch of a lock of hair between two blade treatment surfaces vis-à-vis the same pair.
- This arrangement makes it possible to dissociate the clamping force exerted on the wick by the main smoothing zone of the clamping force exerted on the wick by the complementary smoothing zone.
- the Figures 1 and 2 illustrate a device 1 which is a straightener not in accordance with the invention, the apparatus being in the open position.

Description
La présente invention concerne un appareil de coiffure qui est destiné à la mise en forme des cheveux, notamment le lissage des cheveux d'une personne.The present invention relates to a hairdressing appliance which is intended for the shaping of the hair, in particular the smoothing of the hair of a person.
On connaît traditionnellement deux types d'appareils de coiffure permettant le lissage. Ces appareils sont soit des pinces à lisser, soit des sèche-cheveux équipés d'accessoires de lissage montés au niveau de l'extrémité soufflante de l'appareil.Two types of hairdressing apparatus are traditionally known for smoothing. These devices are either straighteners or hair dryers equipped with smoothing accessories mounted at the blower end of the device.
Les appareils du type pinces à lisser comportent généralement deux mâchoires pivotantes comprenant chacune une extrémité supportant une surface de traitement, au moins l'une des surfaces de traitement étant chauffée, l'autre étant prévue pour amener les cheveux en contact avec la première, notamment en passant d'une position d'ouverture des mâchoires permettant l'insertion des cheveux à une position de fermeture pour leur mise en contact avec la partie chauffante. L'autre extrémité des mâchoires forme deux demi-poignées faisant office de zone de préhension et permettant de passer de la position d'ouverture à celle de fermeture. Le passage se fait manuellement en pressant les deux demi-poignées articulées de l'appareil l'une vers l'autre pour amener la partie chauffante au contact des cheveux. Le lissage d'une mèche de cheveux s'effectue en déplaçant l'appareil le long de cette mèche, de la racine vers la pointe.The devices of the straightener type generally comprise two pivoting jaws each comprising an end supporting a treatment surface, at least one of the treatment surfaces being heated, the other being intended to bring the hair into contact with the first, in particular by passing from an opening position of the jaws allowing the insertion of the hair to a closed position for their contact with the heating part. The other end of the jaws form two half-handles acting as a gripping area and to move from the open position to the closing position. The passage is done manually by pressing the two half-handles articulated of the device towards each other to bring the heating part in contact with the hair. Smoothing a lock of hair is done by moving the device along the wick, from the root to the tip.
Ces appareils de lissage permettent d'obtenir des lissages très « plaqués » ; les mèches de cheveux, une fois lissées, se trouvant plaquées sur la tête de l'utilisatrice de sorte que la coiffure perd un maximum de son volume.These smoothing devices make it possible to obtain very "plated" smoothings; the locks of hair, once smoothed, being pressed against the head of the user so that the hairstyle loses a maximum of its volume.
Cependant, la zone de contact des cheveux avec les surfaces de traitement est faible. Ainsi, en fonction du type de cheveux à traiter, il est nécessaire d'effectuer plusieurs passages de l'appareil sur une même mèche de cheveux. En effet dans les cas où les cheveux sont très ondulés ou très crépus, il est parfois nécessaire de repasser jusqu'à six fois pour pouvoir traiter les cheveux de la mèche en totalité.However, the area of contact of the hair with the treatment surfaces is weak. Thus, depending on the type of hair to be treated, it is necessary to make several passes of the device on the same lock of hair. Indeed in cases where the hair is very wavy or very frizzy, it is sometimes necessary to iron up to six times to be able to treat the hair of the wick in totality.
Une autre solution a été proposée dans le document
Cependant, le souffle chaud de l'appareil ne permet pas un lissage plaqué comme dans une pince à lisser, la coiffure lissée possède un effet volume plus important.However, the hot breath of the device does not allow smoothing as in a smoothing pliers, the smoothed hairstyle has a greater volume effect.
De plus, ce type d'appareil présente une structure volumineuse rendant son utilisation malaisée et peu pratique.In addition, this type of device has a bulky structure making its use difficult and impractical.
Un autre but de l'invention est un appareil de traitement des cheveux qui soit de structure simplifiée, compact et pouvant être industrialisé pour un faible coût. Ces buts sont atteints avec un appareil de coiffure selon la revendication 1. Selon l'invention, la mèche de cheveux se trouve pincée selon deux plans non parallèles , c'est-à-dire, en contact avec les surfaces de traitement voire même pincée mécaniquement avec une pression plus ou moins élevée entre les surfaces de traitement selon deux plans non parallèles, ce qui permet d'augmenter la surface des cheveux en contact avec les surfaces de traitement et ainsi augmenter l'efficacité d'un passage de l'appareil sur une mèche au niveau du résultat de lissage.Another object of the invention is a hair treatment apparatus which is of simplified structure, compact and can be industrialized for a low cost. These objects are achieved with a hairdressing apparatus according to
En d'autres termes, la mèche de cheveux se trouve en contact avec les surfaces de traitement pour un passage de lisseur selon deux plans différents, ces deux plans étant par exemple perpendiculaires au sens de déplacement de l'appareil le long de la mèche de cheveux. Alternativement les deux plans peuvent être inclinés de façon non perpendiculaire mais suffisante pour former deux plans non parallèles. Le deuxième plan représentant la plan des surfaces complémentaires peut former à partir du premier plan représentant le plan des surfaces principales dans un axe transversal un angle pouvant prendre des valeurs entre O (non compris) et 90° (perpendiculaire compris), voire entre 55° et 85°, préférentiellement autour de 60° (c'est-à-dire ayant des surfaces de lissage un tiers inclinées par rapport à l'angle droit).In other words, the lock of hair is in contact with the treatment surfaces for a smoothing passage in two different planes, these two planes being for example perpendicular to the direction of movement of the device along the wick of hair. Alternatively the two planes may be inclined non-perpendicularly but sufficient to form two non-parallel planes. The second plane representing the plane of the complementary surfaces can form from the first plane representing the plane of the main surfaces in a transverse axis an angle that can take values between O (not included) and 90 ° (perpendicular included), or even between 55 ° and 85 °, preferably around 60 ° (i.e. having one-third smoothing surfaces inclined relative to the right angle).
Ainsi, le nombre de passage pour lisser une mèche de cheveux efficacement se trouve réduit par rapport au nombre de passages nécessaire avec un lisseur existant.Thus, the number of passes to smooth a strand of hair effectively is reduced compared to the number of passages required with an existing straightener.
Avantageusement, le premier plan et le deuxième plan sont perpendiculaires.Advantageously, the first plane and the second plane are perpendicular.
Cette disposition permet d'obtenir une mèche de cheveux qui a localement une section sensiblement rectangulaire, du fait de sa position entre les surfaces de traitement, son contact avec les surfaces de traitement, voire son pincement mécanique entre les surfaces de traitement perpendiculaires ; la mèche étant ainsi traitée sur quatre faces.This arrangement makes it possible to obtain a lock of hair that locally has a substantially rectangular section, because of its position between the treatment surfaces, its contact with the treatment surfaces, or even its mechanical nip between the perpendicular treatment surfaces; the wick is thus treated on four sides.
Ainsi, lors du déplacement de l'appareil pour le lissage d'une mèche de cheveux, on obtient une mise en forme rectiligne dès le premier passage.Thus, when moving the device for smoothing a lock of hair, a rectilinear shaping is obtained from the first pass.
De préférence, la zone de lissage principale comporte au moins deux plaques s'étendant chacune dans un plan parallèle à l'axe longitudinal de chaque mâchoire. La zone de lissage complémentaire comporte une pluralité de surfaces parallèles permettant de fractionner la mèche de cheveux en plusieurs mèches fines.Preferably, the main smoothing zone comprises at least two plates each extending in a plane parallel to the longitudinal axis of each jaw. The complementary smoothing zone comprises a plurality of parallel surfaces making it possible to split the lock of hair into several fine locks.
Selon un mode de l'invention, la zone de lissage principale comporte une première plaque de lissage présentant un axe longitudinal L (axe de la poignée du lisseur généralement) et la zone de lissage complémentaire présente une pluralité de surfaces parallèles les unes aux autres et qui sont non orthogonales à l'axe longitudinal L, par exemple sont déviées d'un angle entre 5 et 20° par rapport à l'orthogonalité. Les cheveux sont donc séparés en plusieurs mèches et sont déviés entre 5° et 20° (10 à 15° préférés), ce qui a pour effet avantageux de freiner leur passage et ainsi de pouvoir augmenter le transfert thermique par rapport à une même surface de contact.According to a mode of the invention, the main smoothing zone comprises a first smoothing plate having a longitudinal axis L (axis of the straightener handle generally) and the complementary smoothing zone has a plurality of surfaces parallel to each other and which are non-orthogonal to the longitudinal axis L, for example are deviated by an angle between 5 and 20 ° with respect to the orthogonality. The hair is thus separated into several locks and is deflected between 5 ° and 20 ° (10 to 15 ° preferred), which has the advantageous effect of curbing their passage and thus of being able to increase the heat transfer with respect to the same surface of contact.
Cette disposition permet par la multiplication des surfaces de traitement d'avoir un grand nombre de cheveux en contact avec ces surfaces et par le traitement de mèches fines d'avoir la majorité des cheveux de la mèche en contact avec les surfaces de traitement.This arrangement makes it possible, by multiplying the treatment surfaces, to have a large number of hair in contact with these surfaces and by treating fine locks to have the majority of the hair of the wick in contact with the treatment surfaces.
La zone de lissage complémentaire comporte une pluralité de surfaces parallèles représentées par au moins une rangée de dents dont l'épaisseur est plus faible que la hauteur et que la largeur. Cette zone peut être un dispositif à dents, à savoir un peigne présentant une rangée de dents, alignée ou en quinconce, ou au moins deux peignes sensiblement parallèles et agencés l'un à côté de l'autre, dont les dents respectives se situent dans un même plan ou en quinconce. Une combinaison d'au moins deux peignes adjacents permet de produire une zone de lissage complémentaire qui chauffera la mèche en deux temps successifs et séparés par une zone de non chauffe de la mèche entre les deux peignes, endommageant moins le cheveu sur un passage.The complementary smoothing zone has a plurality of parallel surfaces represented by at least one row of teeth whose thickness is smaller than the height and the width. This zone may be a toothed device, namely a comb having a row of teeth, aligned or staggered, or at least two substantially parallel combs arranged next to each other, whose respective teeth are located in the same plan or staggered. A combination of at least two adjacent combs makes it possible to produce a complementary smoothing zone which will heat the wick in two successive steps and separated by a non-heating zone of the wick between the two combs, causing less damage to the hair on a passage.
La séparation en mèches fines permet également d'obtenir une température à coeur de la mèche suffisante pour un bon traitement.The separation in fine locks also allows to obtain a core temperature of the wick sufficient for good treatment.
On obtient ainsi un lissage rapide et efficace de chaque mèche de la chevelure.This provides a fast and effective smoothing of each lock of the hair.
De préférence, la zone de lissage principale et la zone de lissage complémentaire sont thermiquement indépendantes.Preferably, the main smoothing zone and the complementary smoothing zone are thermally independent.
Par thermiquement indépendantes, on comprend que le chauffage de la zone de lissage principale peut être commandée de manière indépendante du chauffage de la zone de lissage complémentaire.By thermally independent, it is understood that the heating of the main smoothing zone can be controlled independently of the heating of the complementary smoothing zone.
Cette disposition permet d'ajuster indépendamment la température de chaque zone de lissage en fonction du type de cheveux, de l'état des cheveux ou du résultat désiré.This arrangement makes it possible to independently adjust the temperature of each smoothing zone according to the type of hair, the state of the hair or the desired result.
Dans cette disposition, la zone de lissage principale chauffante peut être formée d'une première plaque et d'une deuxième plaque et la zone de lissage complémentaire peut être formée d'un dispositif à dents, la première plaque et la deuxième plaque et le dispositif à dents de lissage étant chacun en contact avec un élément chauffant.In this arrangement, the heating main smoothing zone may be formed of a first plate and a second plate and the complementary smoothing zone may be formed of a toothed device, the first plate and the second plate and the device with smoothing teeth each being in contact with a heating element.
Alternativement, on peut prévoir une zone de lissage principale et une zone de lissage complémentaire thermiquement dépendantes. Par thermiquement dépendantes, on comprend que le chauffage de la zone de lissage principale peut être commandé de façon dépendant du chauffage de la zone de lissage complémentaire. On peut prévoir un unique élément chauffant en contact thermique et alimentant la zone de lissage principale et la zone de lissage complémentaire d'une même mâchoire. Ceci permet de réduire l'encombrement dans la mâchoire concernée et de réduire à une seule commande thermique celle de la mâchoire concernée. Ceci permet de réduire les coûts de fabrication.Alternatively, it is possible to provide a main smoothing zone and a thermally dependent complementary smoothing zone. By thermally dependent, it is understood that the heating of the main smoothing zone can be controlled depending on the heating of the complementary smoothing zone. It is possible to provide a single heating element in thermal contact and supplying the main smoothing zone and the complementary smoothing zone of one and the same jaw. This reduces the size in the jaw concerned and reduce to a single thermal control that of the jaw concerned. This reduces manufacturing costs.
Dans cette disposition, la zone de lissage principale chauffante est formée d'une première plaque et d'une deuxième plaque et la zone de lissage complémentaire comprend un dispositif à dents, la première plaque étant en contact avec un élément chauffant, la deuxième plaque et le dispositif à dents de lissage étant en contact thermique avec un unique élément chauffant.In this arrangement, the heating main smoothing zone is formed of a first plate and a second plate and the complementary smoothing zone comprises a toothed device, the first plate being in contact with a heating element, the second plate and the smoothing tooth device being in thermal contact with a single heating element.
Selon un mode de l'invention que l'on détaillera plus loin, la zone de lissage principale et la zone de lissage complémentaire d'une même mâchoire ou bien des deux mâchoires sont faites en deux pièces différentes.According to a mode of the invention that will be detailed later, the main smoothing zone and the complementary smoothing zone of the same jaw or both jaws are made in two different parts.
Alternativement à ce mode de réalisation, selon un deuxième mode de l'invention que l'on détaillera plus loin, la zone de lissage principale et la zone de lissage complémentaire d'une même mâchoire ou bien des deux mâchoires sont faites en une unique pièce.Alternatively to this embodiment, according to a second embodiment of the invention which will be detailed later, the main smoothing zone and the complementary smoothing zone of the same jaw or both jaws are made in a single piece .
Avantageusement, la zone de lissage complémentaire est amovible.Advantageously, the complementary smoothing zone is removable.
En d'autres termes, la zone de lissage complémentaire comportant un nombre et une forme de surfaces de traitement donnés peut être remplacée par une autre zone de lissage complémentaire comportant un nombre et une forme de surfaces de traitement différents.In other words, the complementary smoothing zone having a number and shape of given treatment surfaces may be replaced by another complementary smoothing zone having a number and shape of different treatment surfaces.
Cette disposition permet d'adapter la zone de lissage complémentaire suivant le type de cheveux et le type de résultat de lissage désiré.This arrangement makes it possible to adapt the complementary smoothing zone according to the type of hair and type of desired smoothing result.
Et, de façon substantielle, la zone de lissage principale est adjacente à la zone de lissage complémentaire. Ainsi, pour la même partie de mèche, un premier effet de lissage selon un premier plan est obtenu par passage de la mèche traitée en contact avec la zone de lissage principale chauffante, et , avant ou après, un deuxième effet de lissage est obtenu selon un deuxième plan non parallèle au premier par passage de la mèche traitée en contact avec la zone de lissage complémentaire chauffante.And, substantially, the main smoothing zone is adjacent to the complementary smoothing zone. Thus, for the same wick part, a first smoothing effect in a first plane is obtained by passing the wick treated in contact with the heating main smoothing zone, and before or after a second smoothing effect is obtained according to a second plane not parallel to the first by passing the treated lock in contact with the heating complementary smoothing zone.
L'adjacence des zones peut permettre de venir au contact avec et traiter les cheveux selon un premier plan à une première température et selon ensuite un deuxième plan à une deuxième température qui peut être différente de la première température.The adjacency of the zones can make it possible to come into contact with and treat the hair in a first plane at a first temperature and then in a second plane at a second temperature which may be different from the first temperature.
Au niveau de l'appareil, ceci peut permettre une régulation plus facile de la température. Au niveau des cheveux, ceci peut permettre de venir au contact avec et traiter les cheveux avec une température élevée tout en limitant un transfert thermique trop rapide et/ou trop élevé appliqué à la mèche de cheveux et qui pourrait l'endommager.At the level of the apparatus, this can allow an easier regulation of the temperature. In the hair, this can make it possible to come into contact with and treat the hair with a high temperature while limiting a thermal transfer too fast and / or too high applied to the lock of hair and which could damage it.
Afin de limiter encore le transfert thermique à la mèche de cheveux, on peut aussi prévoir une zone de garde agencée entre la zone de lissage principale chauffante et la zone de lissage complémentaire chauffante. Cette zone de garde peut correspondre à une zone chauffée ou non mais avec laquelle le cheveu n'est pas en contact lorsqu'il se situe entre la zone de lissage principale et la zone de lissage complémentaire ou dont il est suffisamment isolé thermiquement. La zone de garde correspond dans le dernier cas à une zone d'isolation thermique. Cette zone de garde a une largeur comprise entre 0.05 et 2 cm préférentiellement entre 0.5 et 2mm. Elle peut présenter une section de coupe triangulaire, rectangulaire, arrondie.., Elle peut présenter la forme d'une fente uniquement ou bien peut présenter la forme d'une fente comblée ou partiellement comblée par un matériau avantageusement résistant à la température et moins conducteur de température que le matériau des zones de lissage, du silicone par exemple. Avantageusement, la zone de lissage complémentaire est agencée sur la mâchoire inférieure et la mâchoire supérieure comporte un capot de protection agencé en regard de la zone de lissage complémentaire.In order to further limit the heat transfer to the lock of hair, it is also possible to provide a guard zone arranged between the heating main smoothing zone and the heating complementary smoothing zone. This guard zone may correspond to a heated zone or not but with which the hair is not in contact when it is between the main smoothing zone and the complementary smoothing zone or of which it is sufficiently thermally insulated. The area in the last case corresponds to a zone of thermal insulation. This guard zone has a width of between 0.05 and 2 cm, preferably between 0.5 and 2 mm. It may have a triangular cross section, rectangular, rounded .., It may have the shape of a slot only or may have the shape of a slot filled or partially filled with a material advantageously resistant to temperature and less conductive temperature than the material of the smoothing areas, silicone for example. Advantageously, the complementary smoothing zone is arranged on the lower jaw and the upper jaw comprises a protective cover arranged opposite the complementary smoothing zone.
Cette disposition permet de créer une enceinte chaude dans laquelle est enfermée la zone de lissage complémentaire et les cheveux en position fermée de l'appareil, ce qui a l'avantage de minimiser les pertes thermiques dans l'air et donc d'augmenter la performance de l'appareil. Le capot de protection permet aussi d'entraîner les mèches fines de cheveux dans les surfaces de traitement favorisant ainsi l'échange thermique.This arrangement makes it possible to create a hot chamber in which is enclosed the complementary smoothing zone and the hair in the closed position of the apparatus, which has the advantage of minimizing thermal losses in the air and therefore increasing the performance of the device. The protective cover also makes it possible to drive the fine strands of hair into the treatment surfaces thus favoring heat exchange.
Ainsi le capot de protection peut être fait d'une pièce différente comme illustré en
Alternativement aucun capot ne peut être prévu, pour limiter la chauffe des cheveux. La surface de lissage complémentaire chauffante est donc agencée sur une mâchoire sans capot en regard sur l'autre mâchoire. La zone de lissage complémentaire est située à l'intérieur de la zone de lissage principale.Alternatively no hood can be provided, to limit the heating of the hair. The heating complementary smoothing surface is thus arranged on a jaw without hood facing the other jaw. The complementary smoothing zone is located inside the main smoothing zone.
Cette disposition permet d'obtenir un appareil avec un axe de symétrie dans le sens longitudinal. Ainsi, l'appareil peut être utilisé indifféremment par la main droite ou la main gauche.This arrangement makes it possible to obtain an apparatus with an axis of symmetry in the longitudinal direction. Thus, the device can be used indifferently by the right hand or the left hand.
Dans une variante de réalisation, une ou plusieurs zones de lissage principales chauffantes peuvent être prévues avec une ou plusieurs zones de lissage chauffantes complémentaires. Dans ce cas, on peut prévoir autant de plans que de zone de lissage chauffante, tous les plans pouvant être non parallèles, pour améliorer le lissage. Un élément chauffant peut être dédié à plusieurs zones chauffantes ou bien un élément chauffant peut être associé à chaque zone chauffante.In an alternative embodiment, one or more heating main smoothing zones may be provided with one or more complementary heating smoothing zones. In this case, it is possible to provide as many planes as there are zones of heating smoothing, all the planes being non-parallel, to improve the smoothing. A heating element may be dedicated to several heating zones or a heating element may be associated with each heating zone.
Dans une variante de réalisation, la zone de lissage complémentaire comporte une rangée de paires de lames de lissage agencées en vis-à-vis, au moins l'une des lames de chaque paire étant montée mobile par rapport à une lame adjacente fixe de manière à permettre le pincement d'une mèche de cheveux entre deux surfaces de traitement des lames en vis-à-vis d'une même paire.In an alternative embodiment, the complementary smoothing zone comprises a row of pairs of smoothing blades arranged vis-à-vis, at least one of the blades of each pair being mounted movably relative to an adjacent blade fixed in a manner. to allow the pinch of a lock of hair between two blade treatment surfaces vis-à-vis the same pair.
Cette disposition permet de dissocier l'effort de pinçage exercé sur la mèche par la zone de lissage principale de l'effort de pinçage exercé sur la mèche par la zone de lissage complémentaire.This arrangement makes it possible to dissociate the clamping force exerted on the wick by the main smoothing zone of the clamping force exerted on the wick by the complementary smoothing zone.

Chaque mâchoire comprend une partie adjacente à l'articulation 4, formant une zone de préhension de type pince constituée par une demi-poignée supérieure 5 et une demi-poignée inférieure 6.Each jaw includes a portion adjacent to the
La mâchoire 2 supérieure comprend en partie avant un boîtier 7 apte à recevoir une plaque 10 de lissage. La mâchoire 3 inférieure comprend en partie avant un boîtier 8 apte à recevoir une plaque 11 et un dispositif à dents 20 de lissage. On distingue une zone de garde entre la plaque 11 et le dispositif à dents de lissage. La plaque 10 et la plaque 11 forment une zone de lissage principale et le dispositif à dents 20 forme une zone de lissage complémentaire. Les boîtiers 7, 8 sont avantageusement réalisés en une matière plastique par une technique d'injection.The
La plaque 10, la plaque 11 et le dispositif à dents 20 de lissage sont chacun en contact thermique avec un élément chauffant (non représentés sur les figures) qui peut être un élément chauffant électrique du type résistif, à CTP, à infrarouges, etc. alimenté en énergie par un interrupteur 9 recevant l'alimentation du câble principal de l'appareil. Les plaques 10, 11 et le dispositif à dents 20 de lissage sont réalisés en un matériau métallique bon conducteur de la chaleur du type aluminium ou ses alliages, cuivre ou ses alliages ou en acier. Le capot recevant le dispositif à dents peut être avantageusement non chauffant car la mèche sera chauffée par les dents. Alternativement, le capot peut être chauffant et permettre aux dents d'être alors moins chauffées ou non chauffées.The
Conformément à la
Le boîtier 7 comporte un capot 15 agencé latéralement à la plaque 10, en vis-à-vis du dispositif à dents 20 de lissage. Le capot de protection peut être fait d'une pièce différente comme illustré en
A titre de variante, le socle 21 peut être agencé de manière amovible à l'aide d'un dispositif en queue d'aronde sur une base disposée dans le boitier 8 (non illustré dans les figures). Ainsi, l'utilisatrice peut adapter sur l'appareil un dispositif à dents avec des dents plus ou moins hautes, des dents plus ou moins espacées en fonction du type de chevelure et du type de lissage désiré.Alternatively, the base 21 may be removably arranged by means of a dovetail device on a base disposed in the housing 8 (not shown in the figures). Thus, the user can adapt to the device a device with teeth with more or less high teeth, teeth more or less spaced depending on the type of hair and type of desired smoothing.
En fonctionnement, après la mise en température de l'appareil 1, l'utilisatrice insère une mèche de cheveux entre les deux mâchoires 2, 3 supportant les plaques 10, 11 et le dispositif à dents 20 de lissage, de préférence en plaçant les plaques 10, 11 au plus près du cuir chevelu. Puis elle exerce une pression sur les demi-poignées 5, 6 pour fermer l'appareil. La mèche se trouve ainsi pincée entre les deux plaques 10, 11 et fractionnée en mèches fines entre les dents 22 par la poussée du bord externe 17 du capot 15. La poussée du bord externe 17 a pour effet d'amener les cheveux des mèches fines au contact au moins des surfaces latérales des dents 22, ce qui revient à exposer les mèches fines à une ou deux surfaces chaudes situées dans un plan perpendiculaire aux plaques 10, 11. L'utilisatrice déplace ensuite l'appareil 1 le long de la mèche de cheveux, de la racine vers la pointe des cheveux en maintenant l'appareil fermé. Le déplacement de l'appareil renforce la pression des cheveux sur les surfaces latérales des dents 22.In operation, after the

Chaque mâchoire comprend une partie adjacente à l'articulation 104, formant une zone de préhension de type pince constituée par une demi-poignée supérieure 105 et une demi poignée inférieure 106.Each jaw includes a portion adjacent the
La mâchoire 102 supérieure comprend en partie avant un boîtier 107 apte à recevoir une plaque 110 de lissage. La mâchoire inférieure 103 comprend en partie avant un boîtier 108 apte à recevoir une plaque 111 de lissage. La plaque 111 comporte un dispositif à dents 120 de lissage comprenant une série de quinze dents 122 agencées parallèlement formant sensiblement un peigne à dents aplaties. La plaque 110 et la plaque 111 forment une zone de lissage principale et le dispositif à dents 120 forme une zone de lissage complémentaire. La série de dents 122 s'étend selon l'axe longitudinal de la plaque 111, chaque dent 122 étant sensiblement centrée dans l'axe transversal de la plaque 111. Les dents 122 sont solidaires par leur base à la plaque 111 et ont sensiblement une forme ogivale ou de pointe de flèche permettant de fractionner une mèche de cheveux en plusieurs mèches fines. Chaque dent 122 comporte deux surfaces parallèles définissant deux surfaces latérales 124, 125 de traitement.The
Chaque plaque 110, 111 renferme un élément chauffant (non représentés sur les figures) alimenté en énergie par un interrupteur 109 recevant l'alimentation du câble principal de l'appareil.Each
La plaque 111 comporte une ouverture longitudinale 116 recevant les dents 122 lorsque l'appareil est en position fermée.The
Dans ces modes décrits, pour une même mâchoire, la zone de lissage chauffante complémentaire (220) est entièrement fixe par rapport à la zone de lissage chauffante principale.In these modes described, for the same jaw, the complementary heating smoothing zone (220) is entirely fixed relative to the main heating smoothing zone.
En fonctionnement, après la mise en température de l'appareil 101, l'utilisatrice insère une mèche de cheveux entre les deux mâchoires 102, 103 supportant la plaque 110 et la plaque 111 munie du dispositif à dents 120 de lissage, de préférence en plaçant l'appareil au plus près du cuir chevelu. Ainsi, cette mèche se répartit en mèches fines entre les dents 122. Puis elle exerce une pression sur les demi-poignées 105, 106 pour fermer l'appareil. La mèche se trouve ainsi pincée entre les deux plaques 110, 111. Ce pincement de la mèche a pour effet d'amener les cheveux des mèches fines au contact des surfaces latérales des dents 122, ce qui revient à mettre les mèches fines en contact avec les surfaces chaudes dans un plan perpendiculaire aux plaques 110, 111. L'utilisatrice déplace ensuite l'appareil 101 le long de la mèche de cheveux, de la racine vers la pointe des cheveux en maintenant l'appareil fermé. La traction exercée sur la mèche lors du déplacement de l'appareil renforce la pression des cheveux sur les surfaces latérales des dents 122.In operation, after the
Dans un autre mode de réalisation, l'appareil 1 ; 101 des
Une lame 231 mobile et une lame 232 adjacente fixe comportent chacune une surface en vis-à-vis qui forment deux surfaces parallèles définissant ainsi deux surfaces de traitement 224, 225 et dans ce mode, deux surfaces de pincement avec pression élevée.A
Les lames fixes 232 sont solidaires de la surface supérieure d'un bloc 240. Entre chaque lame fixe 232 est délimité un espace destiné à recevoir une lame mobile 231. De façon avantageuse, les lames mobiles 231 sont indépendantes les unes des autres et sont enchâssées tels des cavaliers sur une épine médiane longitudinale 241 du bloc 240.The fixed
Afin de procurer un chauffage homogène et uniforme des lames fixes 232, un élément chauffant 245 est logé dans une rainure centrale 243 du bloc 240 formée exactement au sein de l'épine médiane sur laquelle les lames mobiles 231 sont enchâssées.In order to provide a homogeneous and uniform heating of the fixed
Afin de permettre le passage de mèches de cheveux que l'on souhaite lisser entre chaque paire de lames, les lames mobiles 231 coopèrent avec un dispositif de commande comportant deux baladeurs 250 formés par des tiges de guidage sur lesquelles les lames 231 sont montées à coulissement. Lesdites lames 231 sont chacune séparées par un ressort de compression 251 et une entretoise 253 solidaire du baladeur 250 et sur laquelle elles reposent en butée.In order to allow the passage of locks of hair that are desired to be smoothed between each pair of blades, the
Chacun des baladeurs 250 coopère en une extrémité 252 avec un dispositif d'actionnement (non représenté sur la figure) des lames mobiles 231 par rapport aux lames fixes 232.Each of the
Le dispositif d'actionnement permet lors de l'ouverture des mâchoires de l'appareil de provoquer un mouvement de recul des baladeurs 250 et donc des lames mobiles 231, provoquant un écartement desdites lames 231 des lames fixes 232.The actuating device makes it possible, during the opening of the jaws of the apparatus, to cause the
Lors de la fermeture des mâchoires, le dispositif d'actionnement repousse les baladeurs 250 et donc les lames mobiles 231 contre les lames fixes 232, pinçant de la sorte les mèches de cheveux entre lesdites lames 231, 232.When closing the jaws, the actuating device pushes the
Bien entendu, l'invention n'est nullement limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et illustré qui n'a été donné qu'à titre d'exemple. Des modifications restent possibles, notamment du point de vue de la constitution des divers éléments ou par substitution d'équivalents techniques, sans sortir pour autant du domaine de protection de l'invention.Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiment described and illustrated which has been given by way of example. Modifications are possible, particularly from the point of view of the constitution of the various elements or by substitution of technical equivalents, without departing from the scope of protection of the invention.
Ainsi, les dents peuvent comporter à leur extrémité une excroissance formant un peigne pour faciliter l'insertion des cheveux.Thus, the teeth may have at their end a protrusion forming a comb to facilitate the insertion of the hair.
