Hair iron

Abstract

A hair iron is capable of effectively manipulating the hair as well as minimizing damage caused to the hair through the provision of elastic members mounted on hair-sandwiching members, and which is also capable of improving the qualitative nature of hair or providing hair care as exemplified by moistening (providing a slick texture) the hair, improving smoothness when finger-combing hair, improving the ease in bundling hair to an appropriate degree, or making hair glossier through the utilization of the effects of negative ions and electromagnetic waves (micro-energy) derived from multi-element powder.

Description

[0001]The present invention relates to a hair iron which is utilized to straighten or curl hair as a professional tool utilized at a barber's shop or beauty salon or as a commercial product for home use.[0002]A hair iron is a tool comprising a pair of hair-sandwiching members which are formed on the tip of a pair of arms mounted so as to be able to swing in a freely open-able manner so that the hair-sandwiching members can move in mutually approaching / separating directions as the arms open / close, consequently it is capable of straightening or curling hair. In such case, as the hair-sandwiching members have been formed with a rigid material such as a metal material or ceramic material, gaps have been created [between the hair-sandwiching members and the hair] when the hair-sandwiching members sandwich the hair, and thus it has not been possible to manipulate the hair effectively, or else the direct heat from the hair-sandwiching members has damaged the hair, which has been problemati...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0003]In consideration of the problems stated above, such hair iron as stated below has traditionally been proposed: a hair iron comprising a pair of elastic members (cushioning members) which are extended in the direction of the extended arms and which are mounted on the hair-sandwiching members in a manner so that the surfaces of the elastic members protrude from the surfaces of the hair-sandwiching members (see Patent Literature 1). The traditional hair iron stated above is capable of sandwiching hair due to the elasticity of the elastic members; consequently, it is capable of manipulating hair effectively as well as minimizing the damage to hair resulting from the direct heat from the hair-sandwiching members, which are advantageous points.PRIOR ART LITERATUREPatent Literature

[0006]The present invention was developed in order to solve the problems observed with the traditional model as stated above. The purpose of the present invention is, thus, to provide a hair iron that is capable of effectively manipulating hair as well as of minimizing the damage caused to hair through the provision of elastic members mounted on hair-sandwiching members, and which is also capable of improving the qualitative nature of hair or of providing hair care as exemplified by moistening (providing a slick texture) the hair, improving smoothness when finger-combing hair, improving the ease in bundling hair to an appropriate degree, or making hair glossier, through the utilization of the effects of negative ions and electromagnetic waves (micro-energy) derived from multi-element mineral powder.MEANS FOR SOLVING THE PROBLEMS

[0010]By mounting the elastic members on the hair-sandwiching members [a grammar mistake in the source document; best translation rendered], it becomes possible to sandwich the hair without any gap [between the elastic members and the hair], this it becomes possible to effectively manipulate the hair as well as to minimize the damage caused to the hair by the direct heat from the hair-sandwiching members.

[0011]The multi-element minerals (multi-element mineral powder) serve to generate negative ions and electromagnetic waves (micro-energy), and the electromagnetic waves (micro-energy) with a wavelength ranging from 4 μm to 14 μm irradiated from the multi-element minerals (multi-element mineral powder) possess the following effects: the electromagnetic waves electrically change the portion surrounding an atomic nucleus to change the atom and the substance into an excited state (to cause vibration), consequently, the polymerized cluster of water is cut and shortened, the volume of water is reduced, the specific gravity of water is increased, the water (free water) is caused to sufficiently become adhered to the epicyte of animals / plants, the permeation of Ca2+ and water is enhanced within a cell, and thus the functions of the cell are activated. With the effects stated above, in particular, it is possible to enhance the degree of moisture of the hair, and thus it becomes possible to provide a lively look (moisture) and excellent care for the hair.

[0012]As stated above, by causing the elastic members to contain the multi-element mineral powder, it becomes possible to improve the qualitative nature of the hair or to provide hair care as exemplified by moistening (providing a slick texture) the hair, improving smoothness when finger-combing hair, improving the ease in bundling hair to an appropriate degree, or making hair glossier, through the utilization of the effects of negative ions and electromagnetic waves (micro-energy).

[0013]Moreover, by causing the multi-element mineral powder to contain far infrared radiation powder obtained by grinding a far infrared radiation material (Claim 2), the far infrared radiation powder irradiates far infrared rays, and thus, the hair and the scalp can be warmed from the inside. Consequently, the permeation of chemicals into the hair can be enhanced.

Problems solved by technology

However, even with the elastic members mounted on the hair-sandwiching members as seen in the traditional model, it has not been possible to improve the qualitative nature of the hair or to provide hair care as exemplified by moistening (providing a slick texture) the hair, improving smoothness when finger-combing hair, improving the ease in bundling hair to an appropriate degree, or making hair glossier, which have been problematic.
