Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field] The present invention relates to an improvement in the structure of the hair curling section of a steam hair curler.

[Background technology] Hair curling section B of a conventional steam hair curler
was constructed as shown in Figure 3. That is, the base 3a of the bristle 3 is sandwiched between the inner cylinder 1 and the outer cylinder 2, and the bristle 3 is attached so as to protrude outward, and the sheet-like water absorbent 4 wound around the outer circumference of the inner cylinder 1 is attached to the base 3a. The water absorbent body 4 is placed in the space 5 between the inner cylinder 1 and the steam from inside the inner cylinder 1 to the small hole 1a of the inner cylinder 1, the water absorbent body 4, and the discharge hole 2a of the outer cylinder 2.
It is supposed to erupt through the. In such a conventional example, for example, hot water that has condensed on the inner wall of the outer cylinder 2 has the disadvantage that it travels along the inner wall and leaks out from the discharge hole 2a, causing burns to the human body during use. In addition, a water absorber 4 is provided to absorb condensed water, but since many spaces 5 are left, the function of preventing hot water from leaking outside is incomplete.

[Purpose of the invention] This invention was made in view of the points mentioned above, and the purpose of the invention is to reliably prevent condensed water from leaking to the outside, thereby eliminating the risk of burns, etc. Our aim is to provide a steam-type hair curler that is highly safe.

[Disclosure of the invention] The steam-type hair curler of the present invention has a hair curling part B in which the bristle 3 is attached so that the base 3a of the bristle 3 is sandwiched between the inner cylinder 1 and the outer cylinder 2 so as to protrude outward. In a steam-type hair curler that curls hair by ejecting steam from inside the hair-wrapping part B to the outer periphery of the hair-wrapping part B, the space 5 between the inner cylinder 1 and the outer cylinder 2 is A water absorbent body 4 that absorbs dew-condensed hot water is arranged, and pleats 4 are provided in the water absorbent body 4.
A is provided so that the water absorbent body 4 reaches the entire space 5, and by configuring it as described above, the drawbacks of the conventional example are solved. In other words, by providing the water absorbing body 4 with pleats 4a so that the water absorbing body 4 reaches the entire space 5, the condensed water is reliably absorbed, preventing the condensed water from leaking to the outside, and improving safety. This is what I did.

The present invention will be explained in detail below with reference to Examples.

Figure 1 shows the entire steam-type hair curler, with main body A having a steam generation mechanism;
Steam is sent from the to the hair-wrapping section B to curl the hair wrapped around the hair-wrapping section B. The hair wrapping part B includes an inner cylinder 1 made of metal or the like,
It is composed of an outer cylinder 2 made of an elastic material such as rubber, a plurality of bristles 3, and a sheet-like water absorbent 4. A large number of small holes 1a are bored in the inner cylinder 1 over the entire circumference, and a water absorbent body 4 is wound around the outer periphery of the inner cylinder 1 over the entire circumference. A large number of discharge holes 2a are bored in the outer cylinder 2 over the entire circumference, and a plurality of bristles 3 are inserted through the outer cylinder 2. This outer cylinder 2 is fitted onto the outer periphery of the inner cylinder 1, and the base 3a of the bristle 3 is sandwiched and fixed between the inner cylinder 1 and the outer cylinder 2. The water absorbent body 4 is located in the space 5 between the inner cylinder 1 and the outer cylinder 2, and the water absorbent body 4 is provided with pleats 4a. This fold 4a forms the base 3 of the adjacent bristle 3.
The folds 4a allow the water absorbent body 4 to spread throughout the space 5 with almost no gaps.

Therefore, the steam generated in the main body A passes through the small hole 1a of the inner cylinder 1 from the inside of the hair wrapping part B, and passes through the water absorbent body 4.
The steam is then discharged from the discharge hole 2a of the outer cylinder 2, and the steam is ejected onto the hair wrapped around the outer periphery of the hair curling portion B, thereby curling the hair. At this time, it is difficult to prevent dew condensation (hot water from accumulating) in the steam flow path, but since the water absorbent body 4 is provided with folds 4a to extend the water absorbent body 4 to the entire space 5, the water absorbent body 4 Since the effective water absorption area can be increased, it is possible to reliably prevent condensed hot water from leaking out.

[Effects of the invention] As described above, the present invention arranges a water absorbent body that absorbs condensed hot water in the space between the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder, and also provides pleats in the water absorbent body so that the water absorbent body covers the entire space. Because the water-absorbing body has pleats, the effective water-absorbing area of the water-absorbing body becomes large, which can reliably prevent hot water from leaking to the outside and eliminate the risk of burns, etc. Moreover, by providing pleats on the water-absorbing body, the water-absorbing body Since the water-absorbing body reaches the entire space, it can be constructed by simply folding the sheet-like water-absorbing body, making the structure simple and inexpensive. It is conceivable to mold the water absorbent body to match the shape, but the cross-sectional shape of the space is complex, so it is difficult to construct such a water absorbent body, and even if it could be molded, it would be expensive. something).
