Definitions

  • the invention relates to hot air generators for household use comprising a fan driven by an electric motor and establishing in a housing a stream of air heated by at least one electrical resistance and flowing between a suction opening and a hot air outlet comprising two orifices called respectively "heating orifice” and “drying orifice " , as well as a shutter arranged in the current of hot air and mounted movable between a first position, for which it opens the heating orifice and closes the drying orifice, and a second position, for which it opens the drying orifice and closes the heating orifice.
  • the invention relates, more specifically, to a generator of this kind which further comprises a control device comprising a lever capable of occupying either a "radiator” position for which the power emitted by the resistor is relatively high, or a "dry” position - hair for which the emitted power is more reduced.
  • the object of the invention is in particular to prevent, for safety reasons, that the user can use the drying orifice while the lever is in the radiator position. It could indeed result in serious burns for him.
  • a hot air generator according to the invention is characterized in that a transmission member is disposed between the power control lever and the movable flap for selecting the outlet orifice and is arranged so that the passage of the lever from its radiator position to its hair dryer position brings the flap from its first position to its second position, and vice versa.
  • the movable flap automatically opens the heating orifice and then closes the drying orifice.
  • the hot air generator shown comprises a fan 10 driven by an electric motor 12, establishing in a housing 14 a stream of air heated by a group of electric resistors 16 and flowing between a suction opening 18 and an orifice hot air outlet 20, called "heating orifice”.
  • this generator has a second hot air outlet orifice 22, called a "drying orifice " , adapted to receive a flexible tube 24 equipped with an accessory 26 for drying the hair, as well as a flap 28 pivotally mounted in the stream of hot air around an axis 29 oriented transversely to this stream of air.
  • This flap can thus pass from a first position (solid lines in FIG. 2 and broken lines in FIG. 6) for which it opens the heating orifice 20 and closes the drying orifice 22, at a second position (dashed lines in FIG. 2 and solid lines in FIG. 6), for which it opens the drying orifice 22 and closes the heating orifice 20.
  • the housing 14 has the general shape of a flattened parallelepiped (see fig. 1) whose rear face 30 (fig. 2) has fixing means 32 (fig. 1) against a vertical wall such as a wall.
  • the suction opening 18 is formed in the upper region of the front face 34 of this housing, while the heating orifices 20 and drying 22 are formed in its lower face 36.
  • the heating orifice 20 is constituted by a series of slots made in the right part of the front edge of the face 36, while the drying orifice 22 is constituted by a cylindrical adjustment located between said series of slots and the rear face 30 of the housing.
  • the generator is equipped with a control device comprising a circular lever 38, rotatably mounted around its axis on the front face 34 of the housing, and thus capable of occupying either a “radiator” position for which the power emitted by the heating group 16 is relatively high, ie a “hair dryer” position for which the power emitted is lower.
  • the lever 38 is integral with the movable frame (shown diagrammatically by the broken line 40 in FIG. 6) of an electrical switch 42 (fig. 3).
  • This armature occupies, when the handle 38 is in the radiator position, a first position "R", for which a first resistor 16 'is connected between the terminals 44 and 46 of the supply sector, and, when the handle 38 is in the position hair dryer, a second position "Sc” for which the resistor 16 'is connected in series with a second resistor 16 "between the terminals 44 and 46 of the sector.
  • the displacement of the movable armature 40 also varies the speed of rotation of the motor 12, to bring it to values suitable respectively for operation in radiator and hair dryer.
  • the generator control device further comprises a transmission member between the lever 38 and the flap 28, such that the passage of this lever from the radiator position (R) to the hair dryer position (Sc) brings the flap from its first position (opening of the heating orifice 20) in its second position (opening of the drying orifice 22), and vice versa.
  • This transmission member comprises a cylindrical skirt 48 which is integral with the periphery of the lever 38 and whose free edge 50 is shaped to constitute a ramp which engages with a slide 52 which is itself engaged with a tab 56 (fig. 4 and 5) integral with the flap 28, the slider 52 is mounted mobile in guides 58 (fig. 4) integral with the housing and oriented transversely to the axis 29 of the flap 28.
  • the flap 28 is subjected to the action of an elastic member which is constituted by a helical spring 60 coaxial with the axis 29, and which recalls this flap towards its position of engagement or contact with slide 52.
  • an elastic member which is constituted by a helical spring 60 coaxial with the axis 29, and which recalls this flap towards its position of engagement or contact with slide 52.
  • the user will rotate the lever 38 to replace the movable armature 40 in the position R. Simultaneously, the ramp 50 will push the slide 52 and rotate the flap 28 against the action of the spring 60 to return this flap to the heating position.
