Because of the difference in handling requirement and structural limitation between hair straighteners and hair curlers, Besides, current hair straighteners use two flat plates to tighten and stretch hairs may result in damaging the hairs. Some of the existing styling devices have both straightening and curling function, they use two half circles to form a barrel to achieve the curling effect, and when opening the two half, there are two flat plates in the middle position to form a straightening plate. Although they have two functions with the simple structure, the operation requirements have not been changed and also resulted in damaging the hairs. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
To solve the above issues, the objective of the present invention is to provide a roller-type hair straightening and curling device that is capable of both hair straightening and curling functions, while minimizing the damage done to hairs in a hair styling process.
The objective for the present invention is achieved as follows: a roller-type hair straightening and curling device comprises two clamping arms pivoted on the handle and has the feature that the two clamping arms form a clamping surface that is defined by a set of alternately arranged rollers with or without heaters.
The abovementioned clamping surface is composed of at least two rollers longitudinally embedded in one clamping arm and at least one roller longitudinally embedded in the other clamping arm. The rollers on two different clamping arms are arranged in an alternately fashion.
An elastic element is installed in the inner side of and perpendicular to each of the roller and exerts outward force.
Each of the abovementioned roller comprises a heater tube, a heater assembly inside the heater tube, a turning bearing at one end of the heater tube, and a swivel power tube at the other end of the heater tube that connects with the heater assembly, wherein said swivel power tube of the roller further connects to a power source through a swivel power cord.
Furthermore, each of the abovementioned rollers comprises a heater tube, a heater inside the heater tube, and a swivel power tube at each end of the heater tube that connects to the heater assembly. On each side of the roller, a turnable power supply element is installed in respect with the swivel power tube. The use of the present invention is convenient and combines hair straightening and hair curling function. The device uses clamping arms to tighten hair and pull downward through the hair, allowing the rollers heat up the hair and straighten the hairs when the rolling over the hair. If the hair is only clamped without being pulled downward, the hairs will be heated and curled, and form a hairstyle because the hairs are pressed by the clamping surface. Particularly, since the invention uses rolls to straighten the hairs, it minimizes the damage to hairs.
