Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pet care tools, specifically to an adaptive hair removal comb. Background Technology

[0002] In daily life, people often use depilatory combs to remove loose fur from their pets. Existing depilatory combs usually have the comb body and handle fixed together, and the angle of the comb blades relative to the handle is completely fixed. When using them, the angle cannot be adjusted according to the pet's body curves, making it difficult for the comb blades to fit the pet's body shape well. This not only reduces the efficiency of depilation, but also easily pulls on the fur due to improper combing angles, causing discomfort to the pet. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of this, embodiments of the present invention provide an adaptive depilatory comb to solve the technical problem that the angle of the comb blade relative to the comb handle of existing depilatory combs is completely fixed, and the angle cannot be adjusted according to the pet's body curve during use.

[0004] The adaptive hair removal comb provided in this embodiment of the invention includes a comb handle and a comb body. The comb body is hinged to the end of the comb handle via a hinge assembly, so that the comb body can reciprocate relative to the comb handle. An angle limiting structure is provided between the comb body and the comb handle, so that the comb body can rotate relative to the comb handle within a limited angle range.

[0005] Optionally, the comb body includes a base and a comb blade, one end of the base is hinged to the end of the comb handle, and the comb blade is mounted on the other end of the base.

[0006] Optionally, the hinge assembly includes a fixed shaft, which is fixedly disposed at the end of the comb handle, and the axial direction of the fixed shaft is consistent with the length direction of the comb blade; a shaft hole is correspondingly provided on the base, and the fixed shaft is rotatably inserted into the shaft hole.

[0007] Optionally, the hinge assembly further includes a return torsion spring, which is sleeved on the fixed shaft, with its two ends connected to the comb handle and the base, respectively.

[0008] Optionally, in the initial state, the base on which the comb blade is mounted is tilted relative to its hinged end toward the comb handle.

[0009] Optionally, the angle limiting structure includes a limiting groove and a limiting block. The limiting groove is formed at the end of the comb handle, and the limiting block is movably disposed in the limiting groove and fixedly connected to the base. The width of the limiting groove in the direction of rotation of the comb body is greater than the width of the limiting block in that direction.

[0010] Optionally, the base includes a base plate and a cover plate, the cover plate and the base plate being fastened together by bolts; the comb blade is clamped between the cover plate and the base plate, and the comb blade has a positioning hole for the bolt to pass through.

[0011] Optionally, the comb blade is provided with a plurality of comb teeth arranged in an array along its length direction. Each comb tooth includes a tooth tip and a tooth root. The gap between two adjacent comb teeth gradually decreases from the tooth tip to the tooth root, forming an inverted V-shaped opening.

[0012] Optionally, the comb blade is provided with a plurality of comb teeth arranged in an array along its length direction. Each comb tooth includes a tooth tip and a tooth root. The tooth tips of the plurality of comb teeth together form an arc-shaped, concave, smooth curve.

[0013] The embodiments of the present invention have the following beneficial effects: 1. The comb body is hinged to the comb handle via a hinge assembly, allowing it to rotate back and forth relative to the comb handle. During combing, it can automatically adapt to the changes in the pet's body curves, ensuring that the comb always fits the pet's body shape, improving hair removal efficiency, and also reducing hair pulling caused by improper combing angles.

[0014] 2. An angle limiting structure is set between the comb body and the comb handle to limit the relative rotation within a preset safe range. This provides sufficient adaptive range of motion while preventing the comb body from overturning and avoiding the comb blades from scratching the skin in the opposite direction, making it safer and more reliable to use.

[0015] 3. With its adaptive rotation and angle limiting design, the comb moves with the shape during grooming, providing more even and gentle pressure, effectively reducing discomfort for your pet and making the grooming process smoother.

[0016] 4. A reset torsion spring is fitted on the fixed shaft, and the two ends of the torsion spring are connected to the comb handle and the base respectively. After the comb body is deflected by force, it can obtain the torque for automatic reset. When lifted or reversed, the comb body automatically returns to the initial position. There is no need to frequently adjust the hand gestures when using it, making it easier and more convenient to use.

[0017] 5. In the initial state, the end of the base with the comb blade is tilted towards the comb handle relative to its hinge end, making it easier to hook out the pet hair that has fallen out during combing. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an adaptive hair removal comb, including a handle 1 and a comb body. The comb body is hinged to the end of the handle 1 via a hinge assembly, and an angle limiting structure is provided between the comb body and the handle 1, allowing the comb body to reciprocate within a limited angle range relative to the handle 1. The comb body includes a base 2 and a comb blade 3. One end of the base 2 is hinged to the end of the handle 1 via a hinge assembly, and the comb blade 3 is mounted on the other end of the base 2.

[0022] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the base 2 adopts a split structure to facilitate the installation and replacement of the comb blade 3. Specifically, the base 2 includes a base plate 21 and a cover plate 22, which are fastened together and secured with bolts. The comb blade 3 is clamped within the installation space formed between the cover plate 22 and the base plate 21. The comb blade 3 has positioning holes 31 for bolts to pass through. While securing the cover plate 22 and the base plate 21, the bolts pass through the positioning holes 31 on the comb blade 3, enabling the comb blade 3 to be positioned and preventing it from shifting or coming off during the combing process.

[0023] The comb 3 has multiple comb teeth 32 arranged in an array along its length. Each comb tooth 32 includes a tooth tip and a tooth root. The gap between two adjacent comb teeth 32 gradually decreases from the tooth tip to the tooth root, forming an inverted V-shaped opening. This allows for better compression force during the combing process, smoothly combing out tangled pet hair and effectively removing dead hair, loose hair, and downy hair that is about to fall out of the pet.

[0024] The tips of multiple 32 comb teeth together form a smooth, arc-shaped curve that is concave towards the center, which can better conform to the pet's body contour, effectively reduce blind spots in grooming, and reduce the risk of skin scratches.

[0025] In one embodiment, the hinge assembly includes a fixed shaft 4 and a return torsion spring 5. The fixed shaft 4 is fixedly disposed at the end of the comb handle 1, and the axial direction of the fixed shaft 4 is consistent with the length direction of the comb blade 3. A shaft hole is correspondingly provided on the base 2, which can be formed by the converging of the semi-circular grooves 23 correspondingly provided on the base plate 21 and the cover plate 22. The fixed shaft 4 is rotatably inserted into the shaft hole, thereby realizing the pivotal connection of the comb body relative to the comb handle 1.

[0026] The return torsion spring 5 is sleeved on the fixed shaft 4. A mounting groove can be machined at the end of the comb handle 1 to accommodate the fixed shaft 4 and the return torsion spring 5. The two ends of the return torsion spring 5 are connected to the comb handle 1 and the base 2 respectively, so that the comb body can obtain the torque to automatically return to its initial state after being deflected by force. Furthermore, as... Figure 2 As shown, in the initial state, the free end of the base 2 (i.e. the end where the comb blade 3 is installed) is tilted toward the comb handle 1 relative to its hinged end to form a shape similar to an inward hook, so that it can better hook out the pet hair that has been combed out when combing.

[0027] In one embodiment, the angle limiting structure includes a limiting groove 11 and a limiting block 24. For example... Figure 5 As shown, a limiting groove 11 is formed at the end of the comb handle 1, and a limiting block 24 is movably disposed within the limiting groove 11 and fixedly connected to the base 2 (it can be directly integrally formed with the base 2). The width of the limiting groove 11 in the direction of comb body rotation must be greater than the width of the limiting block 24 in that direction. The difference in their widths determines the range of angles within which the comb body can freely rotate relative to the comb handle 1. During the combing process, when the comb body is deflected by the reaction force caused by the undulation of the pet's body contour or the tangling of the fur, the limiting block 24 slides within the limiting groove 11. When the limiting block 24 slides to abut against the inner wall of the limiting groove 11, the comb body is restricted from continuing to rotate, i.e., the maximum allowable deflection angle is reached, thereby preventing the comb body from overturning. In this embodiment, the limiting groove 11 is preferably an arc-shaped groove extending along the direction of comb body rotation, and the central angle corresponding to its arc length is the maximum range of angles within which the comb body can rotate relative to the comb handle 1.

[0028] The working process and principle of this embodiment are as follows: When grooming a pet, hold the comb handle 1 and place the teeth of the comb 3 against the pet's body. Because the pet's body has undulating curves, the comb 3 experiences a reaction force from the fur during grooming. Under this reaction force, the comb 3 causes the base 2 to overcome the elasticity of the return torsion spring 5 and automatically rotate around the fixed axis 4, allowing the comb 3 to adjust its angle according to the pet's body curves and maintain an optimal fit. At this time, the limiting block 24 slides within the limiting groove 11 as the base 2 rotates, ensuring that the deflection angle of the base 2 remains within a defined safe range.

[0029] When the comb body passes through a high point and enters a low point of the curve, or when it is lifted to change direction, the restoring torque of the reset torsion spring 5 can drive the base 2 to rotate in the opposite direction (the limit block 24 slides in the opposite direction accordingly), so that the comb body automatically returns to the initial state without the need for manual adjustment of the grip posture. Throughout the combing process, the comb blade 3 can float with the curve, with even force, which not only improves the hair removal efficiency, but also avoids hair pulling or scratching the pet's skin due to improper angle, making it safer, more comfortable and convenient to use.
