Benefits of technology

[0008] With electric heating means built-in on the styling heads / rollers and disposed proximal to the styling heads, hair styling performance is more satisfactory and thermal efficiency is enhanced.

Problems solved by technology

This indirect heating of the styling head means a relatively low thermal efficiency since heat is first transferred to the vicinity of a styling head by forced convection and then to the styling head by contact conduction.
In addition, because a hair styling head usually comprises a metallic styling head which is both a good thermal conductor and radiator, the downstream end of a styling head typically requires a longer time to heat up and initial uneven heating on hair can result.
Furthermore, the indirection mode of heating for a handheld hair styling device also means that the operation temperature range for hair styling will be severely limited which may adversely affect styling results.

Embodiment Construction

[0037] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 2A, there is shown a hair styling apparatus illustrating a first preferred embodiment of this invention. The hair styling apparatus 100 comprises a handle 200 and a pair of detachable styling members 300. The handle is a tong-typed handle comprising a pair of arms pivoted near their respective ends. The handle is a “open” position and a “close” position so that tresses of hair can be released and engaged respectively by a pair of styling heads attached to the non-pivoted ends of the handle. The pair of arms are preferably ergonomically shaped and styled for comfortable use of a user. Each of the arms comprises a hollow main housing 210 so that electrical installations for styling operation can be accommodated on or within the hollow compartments defined by the main housing. The main housing can be made of durable or other plastics. An electrical power cord 220 is connected to one end of the handle for supplying operating power to the electrical parts o...

Abstract

Hair styling apparatus comprising a pair of pivotally connected handles and a pair of detachable styling members which are connected to the un-pivoted ends of said handles, said styling member comprising a main housing, a styling roller and an electrical adaptor, said styling roller being roatably supported on said main housing and being rotatable about a longitudinal axis which is substantially orthogonal to the pivotal axis joining said handles, said electrical adaptor and said handle including co-operative electrical interfacing means so that operating power for said heating means of said styling member can be supplied from said handle to said styling member via said electrical interfacing means, wherein said styling roller being rotatable relative to said electrical adaptor.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] This invention relates to hair styling means and apparatus and, more particularly, to hair styling irons such as hair curling irons and hair straightening irons with a rotatable styling head. More specifically, although of course not solely limited thereto, this invention relates to handheld hair styling irons and more particularly to handheld hair styling irons with detachable and rotatable styling heads. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Hair styling apparatus are widely used in hair applications. A common type of hair styling apparatus is tong-shaped and comprises a pair of hinged arms with a pair of heated styling heads, which are mounted on the free ends of the hinged arms with the styling surfaces facing each other. Hair is typically styled, for example, by a pair of curling or straightening heads, when the pair of heated styling heads is in compressive engagement. Another common type of hair styling apparatus is flute-shaped and comprises a hand...
