Definitions

  • the plucking head - viewed geometrically - is formed as a cylindrical roller, the working surface of which is formed by a narrow strip of the roller shell which is parallel to the roller axis.
  • this has the disadvantage that the skin can be pulled along the roller shell during the plucking process and, under certain circumstances, can even be pinched, that is to say pulled vertically to the skin surface, which is extremely painful; on the other hand, this has the disadvantage that the handling and guidance of the device is largely dependent on the direction. This is because this must take place as transverse as possible to the roller axis in order to be effective.
  • the known devices are not very suitable for processing smaller areas of skin and exact contours, e.g. Hairline, upper lip area (nose), and the like
  • the plucking head is designed as a cylinder which is mounted in the housing and is partially enclosed by the latter, the working surface A of which is to be placed on the skin is defined by its end face.
  • the measure according to the invention has the advantage that the skin can be held “down” in a manner during the plucking process, which causes significantly less pain during the plucking process, and that a working movement in small circles which migrate over the skin surface is made possible. which facilitates hair threading and increases threading processes.
  • FIG. 3 shows a top view of the plucking head according to FIG. 2, - -
  • FIG. 6 is a plan view of a third variant of the plucking head according to FIG. 2,
  • FIG. 11 is a plan view of FIG. 10 with a structural addition
  • FIG. 13 shows a further design variant of the plucking device according to FIG. 1.
  • a pinion 11 is attached, which meshes with a gear 13 attached to the facing end 12 of the hollow cylinder 7.
  • the gear transmission can also be replaced by a so-called “belt drive”, such as a belt or cord drive, as is known per se.
  • the gearbox is to be designed so that the speed of the hollow cylinder 7 is lower than the motor speed.
  • the cam 20, which is designed asymmetrically in deviation from the representation in FIG. 1, is adjustably fastened on the axis 17 by means of a clamping screw 21.
  • the leaf springs 15 are designed so that they urge the jaws 22 attached to their free ends into an open position, so that a gap 23 is created between them and the associated inner surface 14 of the hollow cylinder 7.
  • the cam 20 in turn is dimensioned such that it is able to force the clamping jaws 22 into the closed position via a part 24 of its U, which is circular in shape, in which, as said, the clamping jaws 22 on the inner surface 14 of the hollow cylinder 7 issue.
  • the clamping force of the clamping jaws 22 can be adjusted by displacing the cam 20 on the axis 17.
  • damping strips 25 can be attached to their fixed ends.
  • a head 26 with an outwardly convex surface is placed on the free end of the axis 17 and prevents the skin from bulging excessively into the interior of the hollow cylinder 7.
  • the jacket of the hollow cylinder 7 is partially recessed on its outer edge, such that the parts 27 of the jacket cooperating with the clamping jaws 22 protrude like a crenellated edge against the working surface A, as can be seen in FIGS. 7 and 8. Openings 28 can be provided on these jacket parts 27, through which plucked hair is ejected; in this case it is expedient to provide the clamping jaws 22 with cutouts 29, which open the openings 28. In order to facilitate the threading in of the hair to be plucked, the vertical edges 30 of the jacket parts 27 are chamfered.
  • the number of firing positions can be doubled if, according to the illustration in FIG. 5, two further clamping jaws 32 of the same design and arrangement as the clamping jaws 16 are applied symmetrically to them in the free space of the hollow cylinder 7, as shown in FIG. 5.
  • the jaws 16 are in this position in the closed position and the jaws 32 in the open position, so that a gap 34 is formed between them and the crenellated parts 33 of the cylinder jacket, which are designed in the same way as the corresponding parts 27 ⁇ stands.
  • the possible reduction in size of the entire plucking head with this measure allows two plucking heads 5 to be provided side by side with the same or only slightly larger, adapted dimensioning, as shown in FIG. 8, whose direction of rotation U is opposite.
  • the plucking heads are shown in simplified form in FIG. 2 only as hollow cylinders 7 without the internal units; but the crenellated parts 27 of the jacket of the hollow cylinder 7 can be clearly seen.
  • FIG. 10 The principle of the plucking head 5 shown in FIG. 1 and the following can also be reversed, as can be seen in FIG. 10.
  • the end face of the rotatable hollow cylinder not shown, is covered by a disk 44, which lies on the skin with its outer surface 45, which defines the working surface A, during the plucking process.
  • clamping jaws 46 are displaceably guided by means of webs 47, on which springs 48 act, which the webs 47 with their clamping jaws 46 on the one hand for abutment against a stationary cam 49 and on the other hand pull the jaws against the outer edge 50 of the disc 44, as indicated by the arrows c.
  • each clamping jaw 46 is lifted once to form a gap 51 from the associated outer edge 50 of the disc 44 (left side of the image) and suddenly brought back into the firing position by the shoulder 52 in the cam 49 (right side of the image).
  • the plucking device 5 according to FIG. 12 shows a variant of the device according to FIG. 1; it contains elements of the plucking device 5 shown in FIG. 7.
  • the hollow cylinder 7 is rigidly fastened in the housing 2 and, instead of a rigid cam carrier, a shaft 37 is rotatably mounted in the housing 1, on which the cam 19 is attached is.
  • a pinion 41 is seated on the shaft 9 of the motor 2, which meshes with a gearwheel 40 fastened on the shaft 37 and is thus able to rotate the shaft 37 with the pitch 19.
  • the other conditions and the mode of operation of the plucking head 5 are otherwise the same as those given for the exemplary embodiments in FIGS.
  • the axis 17 can also be displaced in the same direction and for this purpose has a cross pin 57 which, in a slot 58 in the bulkhead 3 of the housing 1, determines its displacement path is led.
  • the entire plucking head 5 is in this way able to yield elastically to the skin when the plucking device is pressed too high.

Abstract

Pour le traitement de petites parties de peau, de contours exacts et en vue d'éviter un pincement de la peau, le dispositif constitué d'un moteur (2) logé dans un boîtier (1), d'un dispositif d'entraînement (9, 11, 13) et d'une tête d'épilation (5), a un plan de travail constitué de la face frontale d'un cylindre creux (7) (=tête d'épilation (5)). A l'intérieur du cylindre creux (7) est prévu un dispositif de serrage avec mâchoires de serrage (16) commandées par des cames rotatives (19).
