Benefits of technology
"The present invention is a device that uses infrared radiation and support blowers to treat hair during drying operations. The device can be easily changed over during a hair styling procedure between two different treatments. The two emitter wells mounted on either side of the head can be shifted or pivoted in different directions, allowing for a more intensive and rapid drying of the head hair. The positioning of the emitter wells can be modified by folding the arms and tilting the wells. The distance between the emitter wells is different during the heat treatment and drying operations. The technical effects of this device include improved hair drying efficiency and flexibility during hair styling procedures."
Problems solved by technology
A substantial disadvantage of the above-described device is that the heat treatment results are unsatisfactory when relatively large curlers are used.

Embodiment Construction
[0029] The Figures show device 1 for the heat treatment of head hair 2 of person 3 that include first and second heat emitters 11, 12, that are constituted from left-hand lateral emitter 4 and right-hand lateral emitter 5 oriented opposite each other for supplying heat 6 to the lateral head hair 7, where third, fourth and fifth heat emitters 13, 14, 15 are oriented for the heat treatment of the remaining head hair. All of heat emitters 11 through 15 are arranged in a so-called open configuration for the purpose of unrestricted handling and observation of head hair 2 and more extensive visibility for person 3 during the heat treatment. A minimum of two lateral emitters 4, 5 are configured to be selectively adjustable from a first operational position A1 (FIG. 1) with first distance a between one another to a second operational position A2 (FIG. 6) with second distance b between one another by means of first respective mechanism 8, where the second distance b is smaller than the first...

A device (1) for the heat treatment of head hair (2) of a person (3), comprising a first and second heat emitter (11, 12), that is constituted as a left-hand lateral emitter (4) and a right-hand lateral emitter (5) that are oriented opposite one another for supplying heat (6) onto the lateral head hair (7), wherein at least one third heat emitter (13) is arranged for the heat treatment of the remaining head hair, wherein all of the heat emitters (11, 12 and 13) are arranged in a so-called open configuration for the purpose of unrestricted handling and observation of the head hair (2) and extensive visibility for person (3) during the heat treatment. At least two lateral emitters (4, 5) are configured by means of a respective first mechanism (8) to be selectively adjustable from a first operational position (A1) with a first distance (a) between one another to a second operational position (A2) with a second distance (b) between one another, wherein the second distance (b) is smaller than the first distance (a) (FIG. 1).
Description
BACKROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to a device according to the characteristics in the preamble to claim 1. [0002] Such devices for the treatment of head hair by means of heat are known in various embodiments in so-called open configurations and are used in hair styling salons, as are known for example from EP0372443A2, EP0156984A1, EP0072994A1 and EP0105785A1. [0003] The device as recited by US-D477, 111-S uses five so-called emitter wells. These contain quartz tubes for the production of infrared radiation and reflectors made from aluminum. These [reflectors] together with the correct positioning of the emitter wells with respect to each other will ensure the required heat distribution for dyeing, perm and conditioning treatments. In order for to give the maximum possible freedom of movement and a feeling of openness to a customer under the heat treatment device, the distance between the two emitter wells in the lateral arms should be approx. 18 in (46...
