With conventional hair styling tools, adjustment of the distance between the tool and the head depends on the user's senses and judgment, and hair styling requires considerable skill. By the way, the inventor has previously proposed a hair styling tool that can automatically adjust the distance between the head surface and the cutting edge surface of the hair clipper in conjunction with the movement of the hair styling tool along the head surface, and that can be used without requiring any skill. This was proposed as Patent Application No. 68705 in 1982.

Furthermore, the present invention makes it possible to automatically adjust the distance between the head surface and the cutting edge surface of the hair clipper using a simple mechanism, and furthermore, the moving angle of the casing that holds the hair clippers inside is always kept constant. It is an object of the present invention to provide a hair styling tool that can improve the hair styling and styling results.

The present invention provides an electric hair clipper built in with the cutting edge end face facing the opening end face of the casing,
and a rotary drum displaceably pivoted to the casing and having its ends fixed by winding a thread connected to a stator that can be fixed to an external object is disposed within the casing behind the open end surface, The present invention is characterized in that a conductive member is provided to displace the electric hair clipper in conjunction with the rotation of the rotating drum, and an angle holding mechanism is further provided to maintain a constant contact angle of the opening end surface of the casing. It is something.

Further, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In the examples shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, reference numeral 1 denotes an electric hair clipper, which is built in a casing 2, and is arranged so that the end face of the cutting blade 3 of the electric hair clipper 1 faces the opening end face 4 of the casing 2. The electric hair clipper 1 is fixed to a shaft 5 provided in the casing 2 by clasps 6, 6 so as to be movable relative to the casing 2. Reference numeral 7 denotes a stator that can be fixed to an external object (see Fig. 4), and a rotating drum 9 on which a thread 8 connected to the stator 7 is wound and its end fixed is installed in an opening in the casing 2. It is arranged behind the end face 4. The rotating drum 9 further includes a belt 10.
A pulley 11 disposed within the casing 2 via
A gear 13 is fixed to a rotating shaft 12 of the pulley 11. Further, a gear 14, for example, a fan-shaped gear as shown in the illustrated example, is fixed to the shaft 5 on which the electric hair clipper 1 is pivotally supported, and meshes with the gear 13.
5 is attached to press the cutting blade 3 of the electric hair clipper 1 toward the open end surface 4 of the casing 2.

Note that it is preferable that the shape of the electric hair clipper 4 of the casing 2 is a comb-like shape as shown in the illustrated example.

Further, the casing 2 is provided with an angle holding mechanism for keeping the contact angle of the opening end surface 4 constant at all times, and this mechanism is one of the essential constituent elements of the present invention. An example of the holding mechanism will be described.

In the fourth illustrated example, the end of a guide rod 16 parallel to the thread 8 is rotatably connected to the stator 7 by a shaft 17, and a through hole is provided in the casing 2 to allow the guide rod 16 to pass through. If the casing 2 is made slidable, by sliding the casing 2 along the guide rod 16, the casing 2 moves while its angle is always kept constant, and a good hair styling result can be achieved.

In the figure, 18 is a screw for fixing the stator 7.

The angle holding mechanism in the fifth illustrated example is such that a case 20 containing a belt-shaped steel plate 19 to which an unwinding force is applied is attached to a shaft 21 on a member 21 rotatably connected to a stator 7.
2, and the outer end of the strip steel plate 19 is fixed to the casing 2. Therefore, when the casing 2 is moved as shown by the chain line,
The strip steel plate 19 is fed out like a tape measure, and the angle of the casing 2 is always kept constant, resulting in a good haircut.

Furthermore, the angle holding mechanism in the example shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 has one end of an arm 27 rotatably connected to a pulley 26 rotatably attached to a shaft 25 fixed to the stator 7, and the casing 2 The member 2 is rotatably fixed to a shaft 28 which is also fixed to the upper part of the
9, a pulley 31 that can be attached and detached by a handle 30;
is provided, and one end of an arm 32 is rotatably connected to this pulley 31. In addition, the handle 30
When the member 29 and the pulley 31 are tightened, the member 29 and the pulley 31 become integrated, but the pulley 31 and the arm 32 are kept in a rotating state.

The arms 27 and 32 are curved so that the fingers can fit inside the arms 27 and 32 so that it is convenient to hold and move the casing 2 by hand.

The other ends of these arms 27 and 32 are rotatably connected to each other, and a pulley 33 is rotatably attached to the connection point.
1 are connected in a loop shape by wires or other threads 35, 36 via rollers 34, 34, . . . disposed on the respective arms 27, 32, respectively.

Therefore, loosen the handle 30 and remove the member 29.
After adjusting the angle at which the is attached to the casing 2, tighten the handle 30 and move the casing 2, each arm 27, 32 moves as shown by the chain line, and the angle of the casing 2 is always kept constant, just like a drawing machine. can be retained.

The one shown in FIG. 8 is an example of a mounting member for the stator 7, which is integrated with a breastplate 37 that contacts the upper part of the human chest, and is rotated about a shaft 39 with an adjustment screw 38 to adjust the interval. A pair of arcuate frames 4
0, a guide member 41 shaped along the hairline
is attached to the rear of the human neck by the convex portion 40a of the arcuate frame 40, and a length-adjustable connecting arm 42 is fitted into the arcuate frame 40 and the guide member 41.

When using the hair styling device of the present invention, for example, as shown in the ninth example, the chest plate 37 of the mounting member in the eighth example is brought into contact with the chest, and the guide member 41 and the connecting arm are attached to the arcuate frame 40. By attaching the guide member 42, the guide member 41 is attached to the vicinity of the human neck and fixed to the hairline of the rear neck. The stator 7 is then slidably fixed to the guide member 41.

Next, when the electric clipper 1 is operated to move the casing 2, the stator 7 is fixed by the guide member 41, so the yarn 8 wound around the rotating drum 9 is rewound, and the belt 10 rotates the pulley 11 and the gear 13, and the gear 1
3 is rotated, and at the same time, the cutting blade 3 of the electric hair clipper 1 is lifted up. That is, when the casing 2 is moved from the hairline on the surface of the head, the rotating drum 9 rotates accordingly, and the electric hair clipper 1 moves away from the open end surface 4 of the casing 2 in proportion to the rotation, cutting the hair. . Also, when the casing 2 is returned, the restoring force of the spring 15 will cause the electric clipper 1 to
The yarn 8 descends and is wound around the rotating drum 9 and returns to its original state.

In this case, the arm 27 joints the guide member 41 and the casing 2, but the arm 17 is like a drawing machine, and even if the casing 2 is moved, the angle of the casing 2 with respect to the stator 7, that is, the 5 guide member 41 is always kept constant.

Therefore, in order to style the hair, the casing 2 must be moved many times, so when the angle changes, the previous electric clipper 1
The passing position of the cutting blade 3 and the subsequent passing position are different, resulting in what is called tiger mowing, but in the case of the present invention, the angle of the casing 2 with respect to the guide member 41 is always kept constant by the above-mentioned angle holding mechanism. , the hair finish is extremely good.

As described above, according to the present invention, the distance between the head surface and the cutting edge end surface of the clipper can be easily and automatically adjusted by an extremely simple mechanism, and the angle at which the head surface of the casing that holds the clipper contacts the head surface can be adjusted. The hair is always maintained at a constant level, resulting in an extremely good hair finish.
A desired hair style can be easily performed without requiring any skill.
