- the hairdressing apparatus 1 object of the invention is a hair straightener. It comprises a portable processing unit 2 and a remote base 3, connected together by means of a cord 4 which makes it possible to supply electricity and water to the portable treatment unit 2 from the base 3.
- This base 3 comprises a water tank and a water circulation pump and is electrically powered by means of an electrical connection socket.
- the portable treatment unit 2 comprises two arms 5, 6 - also called jaws - articulated to each other by means of a pivot connection 7, which makes it possible to form a clamp.
- the two arms 5, 6 each comprise on their inner face and at their distal portion 5a, 6a, a surface 8, 9.
- the surfaces 8, 9 are planar, in the form of two plates and are furthermore heated.
- curved heating surfaces such as, in particular, hair-style hairdressing appliances, or even corrugated heating surfaces such as, in particular, hairdressing appliances of the hair-embossing type.
- the two arms 5, 6 each comprise a proximal portion 5b, 6b. These two proximal portions 5b, 6b can concomitantly be grasped with one hand, which allows the manipulation of the portable treatment unit 2 and the closure of the clamp when the two proximal portions 5b, 6b are clamped.
- the surfaces 8, 9 disposed opposite each other come into contact with one another, which allows the pinch of a lock of hair arranged between these two surfaces 8, 9
- a spring 10 arranged between the two arms 5, 6 near the pivot connection 7, allows the opening of the clamp when it stops tightening with the hand.
- the first arm 5 comprises at its distal portion 5a, vaporization means which are here a vaporization chamber 11 which allows the creation of steam which is intended to be projected on the lock of hair before this lock of hair is pinch between the two surfaces 8, 9 of the clamp in the closed position.
- vaporization means which are here a vaporization chamber 11 which allows the creation of steam which is intended to be projected on the lock of hair before this lock of hair is pinch between the two surfaces 8, 9 of the clamp in the closed position.
- the portable treatment unit 2 of the hairdressing appliance 1 may have similar technical characteristics to those described in the patent application.
- FR2967017A1 filed by the applicant as to the implementation of the surfaces 8, 9 heating and the vaporization chamber 11, with all the advantages that provides such a design. Variants are of course conceivable for these elements, without departing from the scope of the invention.
- the heating surfaces 8, 9 and the vaporization chamber 11 each comprise a heating device consisting of a positive temperature coefficient thermistor, called PTC, and a device for measuring the temperature of the device. heater consisting of a thermistor with a negative temperature coefficient, called CTN.
- said processing unit comprises only two thermistors with positive temperature coefficient and two negative temperature coefficient thermistors, or even some known variants, a single negative temperature coefficient thermistor measuring the temperature of the two positive temperature coefficient thermistors.
- the first arm 5 of the portable processing unit 2 comprises teeth 12 which are arranged next to each other in a longitudinal direction defined by an axis X1. These teeth are disposed near and along the surface 9, in downstream part of this surface 9 on the first arm 5.
- the processing unit 2 is moved in the downstream direction illustrated by the arrow 13 on the Figures 2 and 3 , which first allows the hair 14 to pass between the teeth then, in a second step, to be clamped between the surfaces 8, 9 of the two arms 5, 6 in the closed position.
- each tooth 12 comprises two holes 15, 16 which communicate via connection means which may be a conduit 17 with the vaporization chamber 11. These holes 15, 16 are arranged opposite one another. So as illustrated in figure 4 the second hole 16a of a first tooth 12a is disposed opposite the first hole 15b of a second tooth 12b adjacent to the first tooth 12a. It is the same between all the teeth 12, 12a, 12b adjacent one after the other. When steam is created in the vaporization chamber 11, it enters the direction of the arrow 18a inside the conduit 17 and then exits in the direction of the arrows 18b, 18c through the holes 15, 16, 15b , 16a of each tooth 12, 12a, 12b, as illustrated in figure 4 .
- the hair 14 arranged between two adjacent teeth 12a, 12b receive steam projected in the direction of the arrows 18b, 18c, which allows to vaporize the two opposite sides of the hair 14 passing between said adjacent teeth 12a, 12b.
- a comb (not shown) may be arranged along an axis parallel to the axis X1 of the teeth 12, between said teeth 12 and the edge 9a of the surface 9 of the first arm 5, in the zone 19 illustrated in FIG. figure 2 .
- This comb may comprise rigid or semi-rigid teeth, or even bristles of natural or synthetic material.
- this comb can be fixed removably or not in said zone 19 indicated in FIG. figure 3 .
- the comb may be directly molded into the material at this area 19 or the comb may be mounted in a slider arranged in a slider at said area 19.
- the comb makes it possible to refine the separation of the hair before they are pinched between the two surfaces 8, 9.
- the comb can be made entirely of plastic, for example thermoplastic, more particularly polybutylene terephthalate (PBT).
- the arm 5 may comprise teeth 12 which have the aforementioned characteristics relating to the vaporization and which are designed in a material having good thermal conduction, these teeth 12 being connected to a thermistor with a positive temperature coefficient, called CTP, a thermistor with a negative temperature coefficient, called CTN, for measuring the temperature of the teeth 12.
- CTP thermistor with a positive temperature coefficient
- CTN negative temperature coefficient
- the teeth can come out of the cover of the vaporization chamber which is heated by a PTC.
- a hairdressing appliance which comprises both heating teeth 12 and heating surfaces 8, 9. In this case the teeth 12 ensure, in addition to a vaporization of the hair 14, a preheating of the hair 14 before their eventual combing and then their pinching and heating between the two heating surfaces 8, 9.
- Such hairdressing apparatus may have a complementary comb with teeth or bristles for combing or brushing hair. It may also have a heating treatment surface 8.
- spray means on the hair styling apparatus could for example provide a mini water tank arranged directly on the arm 5 and remove the base 3. On the contrary could be deported in the base 3 the thermistor with positive temperature coefficient so as to create directly the steam in this base 3, then to convey the steam into the vaporization chamber 11.
