Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device according to the characteristics in the preamble to claim 1 .
  • Such devices for the treatment of head hair by means of heat are known in various embodiments in so-called open configurations and are used in hair styling salons, as are known for example from EP0372443A2, EP0156984A1, EP0072994A1 and EP0105785A1.
  • the device as recited by US-D477, 111-S uses five so-called emitter wells. These contain quartz tubes for the production of infrared radiation and reflectors made from aluminum. These [reflectors] together with the correct positioning of the emitter wells with respect to each other will ensure the required heat distribution for dyeing, perm and conditioning treatments. In order for to give the maximum possible freedom of movement and a feeling of openness to a customer under the heat treatment device, the distance between the two emitter wells in the lateral arms should be approx. 18 in (460 mm). Furthermore, the arrangement includes one well in the neck region, one to the upper rear above the back of the head and one toward the upper front over the front of the customer's head.
  • the underlying object of the present invention is to produce a device of this same type that does not exhibit the above-described disadvantages.
  • This device with infrared radiation and support blowers configured as a heat treatment device for hair styling techniques for use in drying operations is characterized by the device being readily changed over during the course of a hair styling procedure between two treatments [such as] between a heat treatment device with an open heating region (first operational position A 1 ) and a drying device with a significantly more enclosed drying region (though with a higher heat energy density) (second operational position A 2 ), where the two lateral emitter wells mounted so as to be on either side of the head can be shifted or pivoted in the direction of the emitter wells [that are] upward and rearward.
  • a conventional hair drying hood such as is known, for example, in GB1348683B1).
  • the positioning of the two emitter wells mounted laterally so as to be on both sides of the head can be selectively modified by folding the lateral arms and by tilting the emitter wells, for example up to 180 degrees.
  • the distance between the two emitter wells mounted laterally so as to be on both sides of the head is approx. 18 in (460 mm) (first operational position) during the heat treatment operation and approx. 13 in (320 mm) (second operational position) during the drying operation.
