Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a hair dryer incorporating a scented material in a cold air passage.

[Background technology]

In the conventional hair dryer A', as shown in Fig. 6, the fragrance material 5 is attached to the suction port 8 at the rear end of the housing 6 of the dryer main body 1, so that it can be used even during hot air operation as well as during cold air operation. Also, air scented by the fragrance material 5 flows into the hot air passage 3, but during hot air operation, the burnt odor of the heater unit itself and the dust attached to the surface of the heater unit 2 are removed due to the temperature rise of the heater unit 2. There was a problem in that the scent of the fragrance material 5 was almost completely lost due to the smell of burning hair and hair. Also, when hot air hits the hair or face, the human senses become distracted by the hot air, and the olfactory organs that detect scents are neglected.
Furthermore, the scent during hot air operation was felt to be low, and the pleasant odor was suppressed.

[Purpose of the invention]

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to be able to directly blow out the scent of the fragrance material from the discharge port even during hot air operation, and to emit a wide variety of scents. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a hair dryer that can be used in a comfortable atmosphere.

[Disclosure of the invention]

In the hair dryer of the present invention, a cold air passage 4 is provided on the outer periphery of a hot air passage 3 in which a heater part 2 of a dryer body 1 is housed, and several types of fragrance materials 5 are provided in this cold air passage 4.
This structure has a built-in fragrance material 5 which can be switched freely, and the above object has been achieved by this structure. That is, since the scenting material 5 is built into the cold air passage 4, the scent can be blown out as it is, and since several types of scenting materials 5 are built in so that they can be switched freely, the fragrance of your choice can be blown out. It is something that can be done.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described based on embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

The dryer main body 1 has a cylindrical housing 6 made of a synthetic resin molded product, and a discharge port 7 is provided at the tip of the housing 6.
A suction port 8 is provided at the rear end.
A cylindrical wind tunnel having a diameter smaller than the diameter of the housing 6 is provided behind the discharge port 7, and a heater section 2 consisting of a heater board 2a and a heater wire 2b is housed therein.
A hot air passage 3 is formed. A cold air passage 4 is integrally provided below the outer periphery of the hot air passage 3. A scented material attachment ring 14 having eight storage chambers 14a on the inner circumference is rotatably fitted on the outer periphery near the entrance at the rear end of the hot air passage 3, and the rear end of the hot air passage 3 is attached to the housing of the dryer main body 1. The tip opening of 6 is fitted and attached. Each storage chamber 14a of the fragrance material attachment ring 14 contains fragrance materials 5 with different scents, and each storage chamber 1
A convex portion 15 is provided on the inner peripheral surface of 4a, and this convex portion 15 connects to a recess 17 provided on the outer peripheral surface of the hot air passage 3.
The storage chamber 14a of the fragrance material attachment ring 14 can be accurately communicated with the cold air passage 4 without being misaligned. Further, the outer peripheral surface of the fragrance material attachment ring 14 is a knurled surface to facilitate rotation. Furthermore, the upper end of the switch operation plate 13 extends upward, and this extension 13a closes the entrance of the cold air passage 4 provided below the outer periphery of the hot air passage 3 so as to be openable and closable. When set to the "cold air" position, the cold air passage 4 is closed (FIG. 1), and when set to the "hot air" position, the cold air passage 4 is opened (FIG. 3). In this way, by rotating the fragrance material attachment ring 14, not only can wind with various scents according to the user's preference be discharged, but also the heater wire 2b of the heater section 2 can be Since it is not heated, there is no burning odor, etc., and fragrance is not needed, so the cold air passage 4 is kept closed, and the fragrance material 5 is not consumed unnecessarily. Further, as in this embodiment, a cold air passage 4 is provided below the outer periphery of the hot air passage 3.
is provided, arm 1 of hair dryer A
6 in hand to dry and style hair, the outlet of the cold air passage 4 is located close to the user's face, and the wind sucked in from the suction port 8 is rectified by the rectifier blades 11, and the fragrance material 5 The fragrance is discharged from the discharge port 7 by making more effective use of the scent.

〔Effect of the invention〕

In the present invention, since the scenting material is built into the cold air passage provided on the outer periphery of the hot air passage, only the air that flows into the cold air passage out of the air sucked in from the suction port is scented and discharged. and therefore,
Even during hot air operation, the scented air flows into the hot air passage like in the past, and the scent is not lost due to the burning smell of the heater, and the scent of the fragrance material can be effectively enjoyed. In addition, the cold air passage has several types of fragrance materials built-in, and the fragrance materials can be switched freely, so the fragrance can be emitted according to the user's preference, and the device can be used in a comfortable atmosphere.
