Benefits of technology

This patent is for a special hair appliance that works well and can change the style of different types of hair. It achieves this by spreading ions evenly on the hair, which helps to make it easier to style. The appliance can be used for both straightening and curling hair. It has a unique design that allows for smooth operation and can be used with both straightening and curling irons. The appliance also has a special nozzle that evenly distributes ions and heat, making it easier to style hair from both sides.

Problems solved by technology

In hair styling, particularly hair straightening, where appliances are drawn along hair, static electricity can be problematic, as it can result in hair that either sticks out from the head, or clings to it.

Embodiment Construction

[0029]Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, in a first embodiment the hair iron according to the present invention may be of the tong-type comprising elongate bodies 10, 11 or jaws connected together at their proximate ends by a hinge 12 and configured for straightening hair clamped between the bodies 10, 11. Each body 10, 11 comprises a hair-care section 13, 14 at its distal end in which radiant electric heating elements15, 16, 17 are mounted. Intermediate the hinge 12 and hair-care section 13, 14 the bodies have a grip section 19 by which the appliance is grasped and manipulated and which may be narrower than the hair-care section 13, 14. The bodies 10, 11 thus form the structural frame of the hair iron, and an enclosure for its components.

[0030]The heating elements 15, 16 may each be of like elongate form, as with a rectangular perimeter, and arranged parallel and spaced apart on the inner side of the hair-care section 13, whereas a single heating element 17 may be disposed on the inner sid...

Abstract

A hair iron comprising an ion generator that generates ions comprises a slotted nozzle in communication with the ion generator for generating an ion curtain projecting from at least one side of a body of the hair iron, alongside and substantially parallel to a longitudinal edge of the heating element that contacts the hair in use.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the benefit of Hong Kong Application No. 18107340.2 filed on Jun. 5, 2018, the whole disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]The present invention relates generally to hair styling appliances, such as curling or straightening irons, that incorporate an ion generator.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]In hair styling, particularly hair straightening, where appliances are drawn along hair, static electricity can be problematic, as it can result in hair that either sticks out from the head, or clings to it. To counteract this tendency, and therefore to allow a smoother styling to be achieved, hair appliances may include ion generators. Typical prior art hair styling irons with ion generators are described in EP1208766B1, EP1672965B1 and EP1396208B1, for instance.[0004]Although these old ion generator type appliances address this problem of static electricity in hair during styling to ...
