Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of curling irons, specifically a press-to-open curling iron. Background Technology

[0002] A curling iron is a personal hair styling tool that uses heating elements to shape hair. Its core components are the heating element that the user wraps around the hair and the clamping mechanism that holds the hair in place. When in use, the user wraps their hair around the pre-heated heating element, using the heat to temporarily alter the hydrogen and disulfide bond structure within the hair, thus creating long-lasting curls, waves, or other styling effects. Depending on their design and function, curling irons offer a variety of choices in size, material, temperature control precision, and clamping methods to meet the needs of different hair types and styling styles.

[0003] Press-type curling irons are one of the most common types on the market. Their key feature is the use of a pressing mechanism on the handle to control the opening and closing of the front clamps. This design typically utilizes a combination of springs and hinges, allowing users to easily clamp and hold hair simply by pressing the handle with their thumb, making operation intuitive and convenient. Its advantage lies in its ability to quickly and firmly clamp hair, preventing slippage during curling. It is especially suitable for handling hair sections requiring precise styling, providing a foundation for creating full, long-lasting curls.

[0004] When curling hair in sections, to achieve a natural, voluminous, and wrinkle-free effect, users need to repeat the process of "curling a section, releasing the clamp, moving the clamp, and clamping it again." During this process, the user's fingers must frequently leave the clamp, and after each movement, the fingers need to find and reposition themselves on the clamp plate. This repetitive and precise positioning disrupts the continuity of the curling process, increasing the tedium of the curling operation.

[0005] Therefore, a press-to-open curling iron is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, at least one technical problem raised in the background art is solved.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: The present utility model provides a press-to-open curling iron, including a handle, on which are provided a pair of clips for applying pressure and shaping hair, and a pressure plate for driving one of the clips to deflect; a slide rail is also fixedly provided on the outer wall of the handle; a finger ring is slidably provided in the slide rail; a trigger mechanism for squeezing the pressure plate is provided on the inner wall of the finger ring; by setting the slide rail and the finger ring, the user's main hand can be kept in the same position when the handle is curling hair, which simplifies the operation of repositioning the pressure plate after the traditional handle is rotated, and optimizes the user experience.

[0008] Preferably, the triggering mechanism includes a first elastic sheet fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the ring; a slide rod that slides through the ring is fixedly disposed at the bottom of the first elastic sheet; through the cooperation of the first elastic sheet and the slide rod, the user's main hand does not need to allocate additional fingers to squeeze the pressure plate, further simplifying the user's operation.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom of the slide bar is threaded with a screw; by setting the screw, according to different hair curling needs, the user can extend the bottom of the slide bar by rotating the screw, thereby achieving different pressure amplitudes on the pressure plate when the slide bar moves the same distance, so that the clips can curl hair of different thicknesses each time, meeting more usage needs.

[0010] Preferably, one side of the ring is provided with a circular plate that slides with the slide rail; a protrusion is fixedly connected to the top of the circular plate; a second elastic piece that fits the contour of the protrusion is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the slide rail; by setting the protrusion and the second elastic piece, when the user rotates the handle, the circular plate directly connected to the ring can slide along the slide rail. When the protrusion on the circular plate passes the second elastic piece, it can be squeezed to drive the second elastic piece to deform and make the protrusion slide into the second elastic piece and fit with it. The jerking sensation generated in the process can give the user an intuitive position prompt, ensuring that the ring is just above the pressure plate when the handle stops rotating each time. In addition, the frictional resistance between the protrusion and the second elastic piece can be overcome by the user with just force.

[0011] Preferably, the handle is also provided with a charging port and a rubber plug for sealing the charging port; when the handle is not in the charging state, the charging port can be sealed and protected by inserting the rubber plug into the charging port to reduce impurities such as dandruff and hair entering the charging port.

[0012] Preferably, a protective sleeve is also fixedly provided on the handle; by providing a protective sleeve, the surface friction coefficient of the protective sleeve is relatively large, which can increase the friction between the user's hand and the outer wall of the handle, thereby enhancing the stability of the user when operating the handle.

[0013] The advantages of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. The press-to-open curling iron of this utility model, by setting a slide rail and a finger ring, ensures that the user's main hand remains in the same position when curling hair, which simplifies the operation of repositioning the pressure plate after the traditional handle is rotated, and optimizes the user experience.

[0015] 2. The press-to-open curling iron of this utility model, through the cooperation of the first elastic sheet and the slide bar, eliminates the need for the user's main hand to allocate additional fingers to squeeze the pressure plate, further simplifying the user's operation.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0024] Specific implementation examples are given below.

[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 5 As shown in the embodiment of this utility model, a press-to-open curling iron includes a handle 1, on which a pair of clips 13 for applying pressure and shaping hair and a pressure plate 12 for driving one of the clips 13 to deflect are provided; a slide rail 14 is also fixedly provided on the outer wall of the handle 1; a finger ring 15 is slidably provided in the slide rail 14; and a trigger mechanism for squeezing the pressure plate 12 is provided on the inner wall of the finger ring 15.

[0026] When using the handle 1, the user first inserts their fingers into the ring 15 on the main hand, and uses the trigger mechanism inside the ring 15 to squeeze the pressure plate 12, causing the clips 13 to deflect. Then, the hair to be curled is fed between the clips 13, and the pressure plate 12 is released, allowing the clips 13 to squeeze the hair. During this process, the clips 13 can heat and shape the hair through a built-in heating unit. The clips 13 are a mature existing technology, so their structure and principle will not be elaborated here. After heating for several seconds, the pressure plate 12 can be squeezed to release the hair, and the user can coordinate with the auxiliary hand to control the handle 1 to rotate several times, so that other sections of hair are wrapped around the outer wall of the clips 13. Heat conduction is used to heat-shape the hair in this area. During the rotation process, the user's fingers can always be inserted into and fixed in the ring 15. Therefore, the ring 15 can slide within the slide rail 14 that rotates with the handle 1, so that the fingers of the user responsible for pressing the pressure plate 12 do not need to move with the handle 1, thus optimizing the user's operating experience. It is worth mentioning that the sliding contact surface between the slide rail 14 and the ring 15 can be equipped with rolling pairs such as ball bearings and guide wheels to reduce the sliding friction between the two (not shown in the figure). By setting the slide rail 14 and the ring 15, the user's hand can be kept in the same position when the handle 1 is curling hair, which simplifies the operation of repositioning the pressure plate 12 after the traditional handle 1 rotates, thus optimizing the user's operating experience.

[0027] Please see Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the triggering mechanism includes a first elastic piece 2 fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the ring 15; a slide rod 22 that slides through the ring 15 is fixedly disposed at the bottom of the first elastic piece 2.

[0028] The initial state can be as follows Figure 3 and 5 As shown, the first elastic plate 2 is in an arched protrusion state. When the pressure plate 12 needs to be squeezed, the user's main hand fingers can press the middle of the first elastic plate 2, so that the first elastic plate 2 can push the slide rod 22 down, so that the slide rod 22 squeezes the top of the pressure plate 12, realizing the device's downward pressing action on the pressure plate 12. Through the cooperation of the first elastic plate 2 and the slide rod 22, the user's main hand does not need to allocate additional fingers to squeeze the pressure plate 12, further simplifying the user's operation.

[0029] Please see Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of the slide bar 22 is threadedly connected to a screw rod 3;

[0030] By setting the screw 3, users can extend the bottom of the slide bar 22 by rotating the screw 3 according to different hair curling needs. This allows the slide bar 22 to move the same distance while pressing the pressure plate 12 at different angles, thus enabling the clip 13 to curl hair of different thicknesses each time, meeting more usage needs.

[0031] Please see Figure 5As shown, a circular plate 4 is provided on one side of the ring 15, which slides and engages with the slide rail 14; a protrusion 42 is fixedly connected to the top of the circular plate 4; a second elastic piece 43 that conforms to the contour of the protrusion 42 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the slide rail 14.

[0032] By setting the protrusion 42 and the second elastic plate 43, when the user rotates the handle 1, the circular plate 4 directly connected to the ring 15 can slide along the slide rail 14. When the protrusion 42 on the circular plate 4 passes the second elastic plate 43, it can drive the second elastic plate 43 to deform through the squeezing action and make the protrusion 42 slide into the second elastic plate 43 and fit with it. The jerky feeling generated in the process can give the user an intuitive position prompt, ensuring that the ring 15 is just above the pressure plate 12 when the handle 1 stops rotating. In addition, the frictional resistance between the protrusion 42 and the second elastic plate 43 can be overcome by the user with just force.

[0033] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the handle 1 is also provided with a charging port 52 and a rubber plug 5 for sealing the charging port 52;

[0034] When the handle 1 is not in the charging state, a rubber plug 5 can be inserted into the charging port 52 to seal and protect the charging port 52, reducing the amount of impurities such as dandruff and hair that may enter the charging port 52.

[0035] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a protective sleeve 6 is also fixedly provided on the handle 1;

[0036] By setting the protective sleeve 6, the surface friction coefficient of the protective sleeve 6 is relatively large, which can increase the friction between the user's auxiliary hand and the outer wall of the handle 1, thereby enhancing the stability of the user when operating the handle 1.

[0037] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
