Hairdressing appliance with motorised mandrel

Abstract

The apparatus (1) has a winding body (3) for winding a hair strand. A winding body drive unit e.g. gear motor, rotatably drives the body around its longitudinal axis. A hair drive unit (7') i.e. grip, drives the strand on the body. An actuating unit (10) i.e. control button, rotatably actuates the body to allow a user to choose one rotation direction among two rotation directions. A control unit i.e. CPU, is programmed for controlling the body drive unit in reverse direction of the chosen direction when the control unit detects an operating state to cause the stopping of rotation of the body. An independent claim is also included for a method for curling a hair strand.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to hairdressing or hair styling appliances, more particularly hairdressing or hair styling appliances of the curling iron or hair iron or brosse rotative soufflante type, having a housing that communicates with at least one rotating heating Body connection for styling hair with any type of heat. Background technique [0002] Most hair styling devices, such as hair irons or curling irons, consist of a handle that supports a heated mandrel, and a pressure clamp mounted radially on the mandrel and used to bring the hair into contact with the mandrel, in particular to allow insertion The open position of the hair is transferred to the closed position for contacting the hair with the heating mandrel. Transfer from the open position to the closed position is performed manually by pressing the opening lever of the pressure clamp. In use, the mandrel is heated with the ends of the lock of hair between the pressure clamps and the...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0010] In the case of air-fed rotating brushes, if the lock of hair is wound poorly or too much around the mandrel of the brush, the brush has the potential to mess up the hair on the filaments and trap the lock of hair around the mandrel

[0011] Therefore, the devices of the prior art do not address and do not solve the problem of combining optimum efficiency and safety of the rotating work of the mandrel of the device

[0012] More specifically, with respect to prior art curling irons, these curling irons do not address and do not solve the problem of allowing curls to be formed substantially over the entire length of the lock of hair without the risk of burning the scalp

[0013] More specifically, for air-supplied rotary brushes, these brushes do not address and do not solve the problem of allowing perms to be formed over substantially the entire length of a lock of hair without risk of messing up the hair
