Hair removal device

Abstract

Device for hair removal, comprising at least one flash lamp (2) (radiation source), a housing (8), at least one inner cylinder (4), and at least one outer cylinder (3), characterized in that the device irradiates the skin surface when rolled and / or pushed.

Description

[0001] The invention relates to a device for hair removal, in particular for permanent, local hair removal.

[0002] There are many devices of this type on the market.

[0003] A disadvantage of these devices is that they can overheat the skin, making hair removal uncomfortable. With all these devices, the user has to move the device over the skin in sections while irradiating it, which means that part of the previously irradiated skin area is irradiated again, resulting in a risk of skin burns.

[0004] The object of the present invention was to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art and to provide a device for hair removal by means of which a user is able to carry out simple and skin-friendly hair removal.

[0005] This task is solved by a device according to the claims.

[0006] The device according to the invention comprises a housing (8), a cylindrical inner tube (4) for receiving the flash lamps (2), and a cylindrical outer tube (3) for protecting the flash lamps (2) from dirt, dust and grease.

[0007] To protect users from laser beams, the outer cylinder (3) is partially shielded or covered.

[0008] The device according to the invention comprises the following steps: - Hold the device in your hand - Roll on the skin - During rolling, the vehicle is irradiated.

[0009] Therefore, with this method, the skin surface is not irradiated twice, and the hair removal process is shorter than with all conventional devices, thus avoiding skin burns.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the device itself generates the necessary energy for the flash lamps (2) by rolling.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the outer cylinder (3) comprises rollers or wheels (6) to facilitate the rolling of the device on the skin.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the outer cylinder (3) does not include wheels; the rolling of the device is effected by the rough surface of the outer cylinder (3).

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, Peltier elements are arranged in and / or on the surface of the outer cylinders (3) to cool the skin during irradiation.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the outer cylinder (3) is itself a Peltier element in the form of a cylinder.

[0015] Examples of preferred embodiments of the device according to the invention are shown in the figures: Fig. Figure 1 schematically shows a preferred embodiment of the device. Fig. Figure 2 schematically shows a preferred embodiment of the rolling part of the device. Fig. Figure 3 shows a schematic representation of the device as a handpiece (5) Fig. Figure 4 schematically shows another embodiment of the rolling part of the device. Fig. Figure 5 schematically shows a section of the rolling part

[0016] Fig. Figure 1 schematically shows a preferred embodiment of the device. In this case, the device is for home use by rolling the device on the skin surface using wheels (6) and thereby irradiating it.

[0017] Fig. Figure 2 schematically shows a preferred embodiment of the rolling part of the device. Flash lamps (2) are integrated into the inner cylinder and protected from dirt and dust by the outer cylinder (3).

[0018] Fig. Figure 3 schematically shows a representation of the device as a handpiece (5), with an integrated part of the Fig. 2

[0019] Fig. Figure 4 schematically shows another embodiment of the rolling part of the device with wheels or rollers (6)
