The hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure includes two clamping plates and a handle connected with the two clamping plates. Each clamping plate includes a shell, a heating plate and a connecting structure connected between the shell and the heating plate. Two opposite sides of the two heating plates are defined as working surfaces. The connecting structure is arranged on a side of the heating plate opposite to the working surface. A heat insulation gap is formed between the shell and the heating plate, and can be narrowed relative to the heating plate. The hair styling device of the present disclosure is due to the existence of a heat insulation gap between the shell and the heating plate, and adopts air as a heat insulation material, so that the heat transmitted to the shell by the heating plate is greatly reduced, and scald is avoided when the user touches the shell. Moreover, the heat insulation gap is formed by a suspension connection between the shell and the heating plate through the connecting structure, and a required heat insulation gap size can be obtained only by adjusting a height of the connecting structure, so as to achieve an ideal heat insulation effect, which is convenient for mass production and manufacturing, and saves costs. In addition, the connecting structure allows the heating plate to move relative to the shell, and when the heating plate moves relative to the shell, the height of the heat insulation gap can be reduced, so that the heating plate can better adapt to contact and fit with the clamped hair, and enhance the user's use experience. 2. According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the connecting structure is not connected with ends of the heating plate but is connected to a side of the heating plate facing away from the working surface.

According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of the connecting structure is at least two, and the connecting structures are arranged at intervals along the central axis of the heating plate. In this way, the connection structure can firmly connect the shell and the heating plate, and is conducive to the balance of the heating plate, and can also ensure that the movement of the heating plate relative to the shell is not limited at the same time. 4. According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the heating plate rotates relative to the central axis, a height of the heat insulation gap located on one side of the central axis of the heating plate is greater than a height of the heat insulation gap located on another side of the central axis. Such design makes the heating plate tilt to different degrees under forces in different angles, so that it is not affected by change of the user's movement, and can continuously clamp the hair, which is convenient for the user's styling. 5. According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, at least part of the working surface is flat or curved; and / or, comb teeth, protrusions, or a combination thereof are arranged on the working surfaces. Different shapes of the working surface can achieve different hair styling effects, such as straightening, curling and fluffing, etc., which can meet the various needs of users. 6. According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the connecting structure further includes an elastic component and a connecting column, and the elastic component includes an elastic piece. The elastic piece is made of materials that can be elastically deformed. Because the elastic components are connected by the connecting column and the heating plate, when the heating plate is used for hair styling operation, the elastic piece will be deformed by force, so that the heating plate will move in up and down, left and right, and front and back directions relative to the shell, so as to better adapt to contact with the clamped hair, so that the user's operations of caring for the hair is smoother. 7. According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the connecting column is arranged on a side of the heating plate opposite to the working surface, and is perpendicular to the working surface.

According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the elastic component further includes a heat insulation piece. One end of the heat insulation piece is embedded with the elastic piece, and the other end is sleeved with the connecting column, and the connecting column is wrapped in the heat insulation piece. The connecting column is connected with the heating plate, and part of the heat on the heating plate will be transmitted to the shell through the connecting column, and the connecting column is wrapped by the heat insulation piece, which can effectively block the heat transmission and further prevent the shell from being hot. 9. According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, two sides of the connecting column are provided with supporting blocks, and the supporting blocks are used for strengthening the connection between the connecting column and the heating plate. When the heating plate moves relative to the shell, a torsion force is generated, which affects the connection points between the connecting column and the heating plate. The use of supporting blocks can weaken such influence, so as to prolong the service life of the hair styling device. 10. According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, an end of the elastic component adjacent to an inner surface of the shell is a hemispherical structure, and the hemispherical structure can make the elastic component still be able to move in all directions under the condition of force compression, so that the movement of the heating plate relative to the shell is smoother. 11. According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, both the elastic component and the connecting column are provided with connecting holes communicated with each other, and the elastic component is fixed to the connecting column by connecting screws with the connecting holes. A width of the heat insulation gap is greater than a distance between the screw and the inner surface of the shell, which ensures that the two clamping plates are completely clamped.

According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, one side of the heating plate where the connecting structure is arranged is provided with a first wiring hole, and the heat insulation piece is provided with a second wiring hole. The first wiring hole is communicated with the second wiring hole, which helps to shorten the distance of a line routing which controlls the signal connection of the heating piece, and the wires are hidden in the elastic component and the connection structure, and a separate wiring channel is not needed, so that the whole structure is more concise and beautiful. 15. According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the inner surface is provided with a recess, and the heating plate is arranged at the recess. In the process of using the hair styling device, in order to straighten the hair root, the hair styling device will be leaned against vicinity of the scalp.

According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the depth of the recess is greater than the width of the heat insulation gap and is less than the thickness of the heating plate. Understandably, this design allows the user's hair to enter more smoothly between the two heating plates, rather than between the heating plate and the shell, which can prevent the two shells from contact and collision when the two heating plates are performing clamping operations. 17. According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, at least one inner surface is provided with through holes, and an anion generator is installed inside the first accommodating space, anions generated by the anion generator enters the working space through the through holes. In the process of caring for the user's hair, the anion generator will produce anions passing through the through holes, and the anions generated are adsorbed by the two heating plates to act on the hair or part of the anions are directly acted on the hair, which is used to eliminate static electricity, smooth messy hair, and make the hair more comfortable and smoother. The first accommodating space can be further provided with a steam generating device, an atomization device and a fan, and steam, spray and air flow generated by which can enter the working space through the through holes and are emitted to the area between the two heating plates, so as to have an effect on the hair care process and improve the user's experience. 18. According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the through holes are provided on at least one side of the inner surface of the shell, and a height of the working surface relative to the inner surface is higher than a height of the through holes relative to the inner surface. This design can make the steam generated by the steam generator, the anions generated by the anion generator, the spray generated by the atomizer, and the air flow generated by the fan better converge around the working surface and act on the hair, improving a utilization rate and making it safer and more comfortable. 19. According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, a second accommodating space is provided inside the heating plate, and a heating piece is arranged inside the second accommodating space, a printed circuit board PCB is arranged inside the shell, and a control module is arranged on the PCB. The control module is in a signal connection with the heating piece, so that the control module can control the switching on and off of the heating piece, which is convenient for the user to operate, and the heating piece is abutted on the heating plate. After the control module controls the heating piece to be turned on, the heating piece quickly transfers heat to the heating plate, reducing the waiting time when the user is using it. 20. According to the hair styling device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, an ultrasonic device is installed inside the heating plate, an ultrasonic control circuit is installed inside the shell, and the ultrasonic control circuit is in a signal connection with the ultrasonic device. The hair styling device with an ultrasonic function can generate high-frequency vibration waves so that the ultra-fine molecules of water and protein molecules can penetrate directly into the hair layer, and the hair care solution on the hair can be absorbed more effectively when the user uses the hair styling device. Because there is a heat insulation gap in the hair styling device of the present disclosure, the high-frequency vibration wave can make the heating plate produce a more obvious vibration effect, and because the heating plate and the shell are only connected by the connection structure, its waterproof performance is greatly improved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0035] In order to make purposes, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure more clearly understood, the present disclosure is further described in detail below in conjunction with accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.

[0036] In the present disclosure, the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "rear", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "middle", "vertical", "horizontal", "longitudinal", etc., indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the drawings shown. These terms are intended primarily to better describe the present disclosure and its embodiments, and are not intended to limit that the device, element, or component indicated must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation.

[0037] In addition, the terms "installed", "mounted", "arranged", "connected" and "interconnected" should be construed broadly. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral construction; It can be mechanically connected, or electrically connected; It can be directly connected, indirectly through an intermediate medium, or an internal communication between two devices, elements or components. For an ordinary person skilled in the art, specific meanings of the above terms in the present disclosure can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0038] Referring to FIG. 2, a first embodiment of the present disclosure provides a hair styling device 1, which includes two clamping plates 11 and a handle 12. One end of the two clamping plates 11 is connected with the handle 12 and is opened and closed through the handle 12. Each clamping plate 11 includes a shell 111 and a heating plate 112. A working space 17 is defined between the shells 111 of the two clamping plates 11, and the heating plates 112 are arranged in the working space 17.

[0039] One side of the heating plate 112 of the at least one clamping plate 11 faces the shell 111 of the clamping plate 11 and a connecting structure 15 is arranged on the such side. The shell 111 of the clamping plate 11 is connected with the heating plate 112 of the clamping plate 11 through the connecting structure 15. A heat insulation gap 13 is formed between the shell 111 of the clamping plate 11 and the heating plate 112 of the clamping plate 11. When the heating plate 112 moves relative to the shell 111, a height of the heat insulation gap 13 can be reduced.

[0040] It should be noted that, at room temperature (20 °C), a thermal conductivity of air is only 0.026W / (m•K). The air is an excellent thermal insulation material, and the hair styling device 1 in this embodiment uses air as a thermal insulation material because there is a heat insulation gap 13 between the shell 111 and the heating plate 112, so that the heat transmitted to the shell 111 by the heating plate 112 is greatly reduced, thus the user is protect from being scalded when touching the shell 111.

[0041] Understandably, the heat insulation gap 13 is formed by a suspension connection between the shell 111 and the heating plate 112 through the connecting structure 15, and the heat insulation gap 13 of a suitable width can be obtained only by adjusting the height of the connecting structure 15, so as to achieve an ideal heat insulation effect, which is convenient for mass production and manufacturing, and saves cost.

[0042] Understandably, the connection structure 15 allows the heating plate 112 to move relative to the shell 111. When the heating plate 112 moves relative to the shell 111, the height of the heat insulation gap 13 will be reduced. Such arrangement can make the heating plate 112 better adapt to contact and fit with the clamped hair, so that the hair is clamped more firmly, and the user's use experience is enhanced.

[0043] It is understandable that the handle 12 can realize opening or closing of the two clamping plates 11, and the embodiment does not limit the specific structure of the handle 12, as long as the opening and closing between the two clamping plates 11 can be realized, and it will not be repeated herein.

[0044] It is understood that the shell 111 can include an upper cover and a lower cover, which is detachably connected with each other. The upper cover together with the lower cover defines a receiving space for receiving internal components. The whole of the shell 111 is made of heat-insulating materials, such as plastic, to isolate heat generated by the internal components of the heating plate 112, and prevent the shell 111 from overheating and causing discomfort or scalding to the user.

[0045] Further, the connecting structure 15 is not connected with ends of the heating plate 112 but is connected to a side of the heating plate 112 facing away from the working surface 1124. Such design makes simplify visible external structures of the connecting structure 15, makes the hair styling device 1 more lightweight and beautiful, and makes movement of the heating plate 112 more flexible relative to the shell 111, and the user can clamp the hair from any angle and can achieve a better fit between the hair and the two heating plates 112.

[0046] Further, the number of the connecting structures 15 on each heating plate 112 is at least two, and the at least two connecting structures 15 are arranged at intervals along a central axis of the heating plate 112.

[0047] Understandably, if the connecting structure 15 is connected with the end of the heating plate 112, movement of the heating plate 112 is restricted, so that a floating effect cannot be achieved. Therefore, two or more connecting structures 15 are arranged at intervals instead of directly connecting with the ends of the heating plate 112. Such design can have the heating plate 112 firmly connected with the shell 111. It helps maintain the balance of the heating plate 112 and ensures that the movement range of the heating plate 112 relative to the shell 111 is not limited.

[0048] Understandably, the connecting structure 15 can be arranged at intervals along the central axis of a length direction of the heating plate 112, and can also be arranged at intervals along the central axis of a width direction of the heating plate 112. Due to support of the connecting structure 15, the heating plate 112 can rotate around the central axis, so that the hair can be better clamped from different angles.

[0049] Further, the heating plate 112 moves relative to the shell 111, and the height of the heat insulation gap 13 on one side of the central axis of the heating plate 112 is greater than the height of the heat insulation gap 13 on the other side of the central axis. When the heating plate 112 rotates around the central axis, the height of the heat insulation gap 13 on one side of the central axis of the heating plate 112 is greater than the height of the heat insulation gap 13 on the other side of the central axis.

[0050] Understandably, during the process of use, such design makes the heating plate 112 incline at different angles along with different force applied thereon, which can keep clamping the hair for styling without being affected by the change of the user's action.

[0051] Please further referring to FIG. 3, the opposite sides of the two heating plates 112 are the working surfaces 1124. Each connecting structure 15 includes a connecting column 152. The connecting column 152 is provided at a side of the heating plate 112 opposite to the working surface 1124, and the connecting column 152 is perpendicular to the working surface 1124.

[0052] Understandably, specifically, the heat insulation gap 13 is formed by a suspension connection between the shell 111 and the heating plate 112 by the connecting column 152, and the connecting column 152 is arranged perpendicular to the working surface 1124, so that the floating effect of the heating plate 112 can be maximized or the movement range of the heating plate 112 relative to the shell 111 can be maximized. Furthermore, visible structures of the hair styling device can be further simplified, so that the hair styling device 1 is more lightweight and beautiful.

[0053] Furthermore, at least part of the working surface 1124 is flat or curved; and / or, comb teeth, protrusions, or a combination thereof are arranged on the working surfaces 1124.

[0054] Understandably, in the embodiment, the shape of the working surface 1124 of the heating plate 112 is not limited, and the working surfaces 1124 of the heating plates 112 can be a plane, a curved surface or an irregular surface engaged with each other, so as to realize different hair styles, such as straightening, curling hair, etc.

[0055] Further, the comb teeth, the protrusions and the like that are engaged with each other can also be arranged on the working surfaces 1124, and the shape of the protrusions can be rectangular, diamond-shaped, spherical, wavy-shaped and the like.

[0056] Further, the working surfaces 1124 can be a combination of the comb teeth and the protrusions, such as arranging a row of comb teeth around an outer periphery of the protrusions on the working surfaces 1124.

[0057] Further, the shape of the working surfaces 1124 of the two heating plates 112 can be asymmetrically arranged, such as one of the working surfaces 1124 is a plane, and the other of the working surfaces 1124 is provided with an irregular surface with protrusions.

[0058] Please further referring to FIG. 4, two sides of the connecting column 152 are provided with supporting blocks 11211, and the supporting blocks 11211 are used for strengthening the connection between the connecting column 152 and the heating plate 112, which can weaken the influence that a torsion force generated by the movement of the heating plate 112 relative to the shell 111 applied on connection points between the connecting column 152 and the heating plate 112, thus prolonging the service life of the hair styling device 1.

[0059] Understandably, in the embodiment, the shape and size of the support block 11211 are not specifically limited, and arranging directions and the number of the support blocks 11211 on each connecting column 152 are not specifically limited.

[0060] Please continue to referring to FIG. 5 to FIG. 7, the connecting structure 15 further includes an elastic component 151, the shell 111 is provided with a first accommodating space 1112, the elastic component 151 is partly located in the first accommodating space 1112, and the elastic component 151 is connected with the connecting column 152. The elastic component 151 includes an elastic piece 1511 arranged in the first accommodating space 1112 and connected with the shell.

[0061] Understandably, in the process of clamping hair, the amount and thickness of hair clamped by each part of the heating plate 112 may be different. If the heating plate 112 is directly pressed on the hair, the contact area of the hair with smaller thickness with the heating plate 112 is reduced, so that the hair is heated unevenly, and the hair styling effect is not good. In the embodiment, because the elastic component 151 is connected between the connecting column 152 and the heating plate 112, the elastic component 151 will be forced to deform to allow the heating plate 112 to move upwards or downwards, leftwards or rightwards, forward or backward relative to the shell 111 when the heating plate 112 performs operations of clamping and straightening the hair, thus better adapting to the contact with clamped hair, which is beneficial for the user to care for the hair more smoothly.

[0062] As an example, referring to FIG. 8a to FIG. 8d, FIG. 8a shows the hair styling device in a natural closed state in which the elastic piece 1511 is not deformed, and the width of the two heat insulation gaps 13 at an end away from the handle 12 is 1.5 mm, and the width of the two heat insulation gaps 13 at an end adjacent to the handle 12 is 1.1 mm. FIG. 8b shows the state when the two heating plates 112 of the hair styling device 1 move upward and downward and forward relative to the shell 111, the elastic pieces 1511 are deformed by force at this moment, and the width of the heat insulation gap 13 changes, at this moment, the width of the heat insulation gap 13 at the end away from the handle 12 is 0.3 mm, and the width of the heat insulation gap 13 at the end adjacent to the handle 12 is 0.5 mm. FIG. 8c shows the state when the two heating plates 112 of the hair styling device 1 move upward and downward and leftward relative to the shell 111, and the elastic pieces 1511 are deformed by force at this moment, and the width of the heat insulation gap 13 changes, and the width of the right side of the two heat insulation gaps 13 is 0.3 mm and 0.5 mm respectively. FIG. 8d shows the state when the two heating plates 112 of the hair styling device 1 move upward and downward and rightward relative to the shell 111, and the elastic pieces 1511 are deformed by force at this moment, and the width of the heat insulation gap 13 changes, and the width of the left side of the two heat insulation gaps 13 is 0.3 mm and 0.5 mm respectively.

[0063] It should be noted that the elastic pieces 1511 should be made of elastic deformation materials, specifically silicone, springs, metal sheets, etc.

[0064] Further, an end of the elastic component 151 facing the inner surface of the shell 111 is a hemispherical structure. It is understandable that the hemispherical structure can make the heating plate 112 move in all directions relative to the shell 111 under the condition that the elastic component 151 is pressed, so that the movement of the heating plate 112 relative to the shell 111 is smoother.

[0065] Further, each elastic component 151 further includes a heat insulation piece 1512. One end of the heat insulation piece 1512 is located in the first accommodating space 1112 and is embedded with the elastic piece 1511, the other end extends out of the first accommodating space 1112 and sleeves on the connecting column 152, and the connecting column 152 is wrapped inside the heat insulation piece 1512.

[0066] Understandably, the connecting column 152 is connected with the heating plate 112, and part of the heat from the heating plate 112 can be transmitted to the shell 111 through the connecting column 152. The connecting column 152 is wrapped inside the heat insulation piece 1512, which is beneficial to prevent the heat from being transmitted to the shell effectively, thus further prevent the shell 111 from overheating.

[0067] It should be noted that the heat insulation piece 1512 should be made of materials with low thermal conductivity and not easy to deform. Specifically, the heat insulation piece 1512 can be made of PET material or TPU material, which can resist high temperature and can effectively block heat transmission to the shell 111.

[0068] Further, referring to FIG. 9, a diameter D1 of the part of the heat insulation 1512 extending out of the first accommodating space 1112 (D1 shown in FIG. 9) is smaller than the width D2 of the heating plate 112 (D2 shown in FIG. 9), which can increase the movement range of the heating plate 112 relative to the shell 111. The connecting structure 15 can be hidden between the shell 111 and the heating plate 112, so that the overall structure of the hair styling device 1 is more simplified and beautiful.

[0069] Please continue to refer to FIG. 3 to FIG. 5, both the elastic component 151 and the connecting column 152 are provided with connecting holes 1111 communicated with each other. The elastic component 151 and the connecting column 152 are connected and fixed by engaging screws 18 into the connecting holes 1111, thereby firmly connecting the shell 111 with the heating plate 112. Such connection way is simple and reliable, which can save process cost, and is convenient for mass production.

[0070] Furthermore, please continue to refer to FIG. 9, the width L1 of the heat insulation gap 13 (L1 as shown in FIG. 9) is greater than the distance L2 between the screws 18 and the inner surface of the shell 111 (L2 as shown in FIG. 9), so as to ensure that the two clamping plates 11 are completely clamped. When the elastic component 151 is compressed to a maximum extent, the heat insulation gap 13 still exists, and the thermal insulation effect is ensured, and the heating plate 112 can still move upward-downward, leftward-rightward relative to the shell 111 simultaneously.

[0071] Optionally, in the embodiment, when the two clamping plates 11 is in the natural closed state, the width of the heat insulation gap 13 is in the range of 1.1 mm to 1.5 mm, the two clamping plates 11 are completely clamped, and when the elastic components 151 are compressed to the maximum extent, the width of the heat insulation gap 13 is 0.3 mm to 0.5 mm.

[0072] Furthermore, please referring to FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, two opposite sides located in the length direction of the heating plate 112 are defined as end surfaces 1121. There is a movement gap 115 between the two end faces 1121 and the shell 111. The width L3 of the movement gap 115 (L3 shown in FIG. 10) is greater than the distance L2 between the screw 18 and the inner surface of the shell 111 (L2 as shown in FIG. 9), which ensures that the two clamping plates 11 are completely clamped. When the elastic component 151 is compressed to the maximum extent, the movement gap 115 still exists, and the two ends of the heating plate 112 will not be butted against the shell 111, so that the heat insulation effect is guaranteed, and the heating plate 112 can still move in the front and rear directions relative to the shell 111 simultaneously.

[0073] It is understandable that when the heating plate 112 moves relative to the shell 111, because the elastic piece 1511 will be deformed, the width of the heat insulation gap 13 and the movement gap 115 will change along with the direction in which the heating plate 112 moves relative to the shell 111.

[0074] Please further referring to FIG. 11, a side of the shell 111 facing the working space 17 is defined as the inner surface 113. The inner surface 113 defines a recess 114 matching the heating plate 112, and the heating plate 112 is arranged at the recess 114.

[0075] It is understandable that in the process of using the hair styling device, in order to straighten hair roots, the hair styling device 1 may be pressed against the scalp, and heating parts of some existing hair styling devices do not have any protective structures, thus prone to cause burns. In this embodiment, the heating plate 112 is located in the recess 114, so that the heating plate 112 is half-wrapped by the shell 111, and the user can adjust various angles of the hair styling device 1 for hair care without being burned.

[0076] Furthermore, in the original state, the depth of the recess 114 is greater than the width of the heat insulation gap 13, and is smaller than the thickness of the heating plate 112.

[0077] Understandably, such arrangement is convenient for the user have the hair more smoothly entering the working space between the two heating plates 112 instead of between the heating plate 112 and the shell 111, and can ensure that the two shells 111 are prevented from contacting and colliding with each other to produce adverse effects when the two heating plates 112 are clamped with each other.

[0078] Please referring to FIG. 6 and FIG. 11, a second accommodating space 1123 is defined in the heating plate 112, and a heating piece 11231 is arranged in the second accommodating space 1123. A PCB board 14 is arranged in the first accommodating space 1112 of one of the shells 111, and a control module (not shown) is arranged on the PCB board 14. The control module establishes a signal connection with the heating piece 11231 to control on and off of the heating piece 11231, which is convenient for the user to operate. After the control module controls the heating piece 11231 to be turned on, the heating piece 11231 contacts the heating plate 112 to quickly transmit heat to the heating plate 112, thus reducing waiting time to use.

[0079] It is understandable that the heating piece 11231 is used for heating the heating plate 112, as long as the heating piece 11231 can establish a signal connection with the control module to achieve a heating function, and it will not be repeated here.

[0080] Specifically, referring to FIG. 2, in the embodiment, a function button 19 is arranged on one of the clamping plates 11. The function button 19 can establish a signal connection with the control module to achieve turning on and off the heating piece 11231 and regulating temperature of the heating piece 11231. The temperature of the heating piece 11231 can be divided into multiple ranges, which conforms to the user's use habits, and is convenient for the user to regulate temperature according to actual needs.

[0081] Understandably, as long as the function button 19 can realize switching on and off of the heating piece 11231 and regulating temperature of the heating piece 11231, detailed arrangements and structures will not be repeated here.

[0082] Further, please referring to FIG. 6 and FIG. 11, at least one inner surface 113 is provided with a through hole 1131, the first accommodating space 1112 is provided with an anion generator 11131, and anions generated by the anion generator 11131 can enter the working space 17 from the through hole 1131.

[0083] Understandably, an anion needle 11132 is arranged in the first accommodating space 1112. The anion needle 11132 is arranged at a position on the clamping plate 11 adjacent to an edge of the heating plate 112, so that the anions generated by the anion needle 11132 and the anion generator 11131 can be emitted to the area between the two heating plates 112. Therefore, in the process of caring for the user's hair, the anions generated by the anion generator 11131 are adsorbed on the hair by the two heating plates or partially act directly on the hair, which can eliminate static electricity, smooth messy hair, and make hair softer and smoother.

[0084] It can be understood that both sides of the inner surface 113 corresponding to the heating piece 11231 are provided with through holes 1131 and anion needles 11132, the number of which are not limited.

[0085] Furthermore, in addition to the anion generator 11131, the first accommodating space 1112 can also be provided with a steam generating device, an atomization device and a fan, and the steam, spray and air flow generated thereof enter the working space 17 through the through holes 1131 and are emitted to the area in the middle of the heating plate 112, thereby having an effect on the hair care process.

[0086] Further, in conjunction with FIG. 3 and FIG. 11, the through holes 1131 are arranged on at least one side of the inner surface 113 of the shell 111, and the height of the working surface 1124 relative to the inner surface 113 is higher than the height of the through holes 1131 relative to the inner surface 113.

[0087] Understandably, steam generated by the steam generator, anions generated by the ionizer, the spray generated by the atomizer, and the air flow generated by the fan can be better concentrated around the working surface and act on the hair, improving a utilization rate and making it safer and more comfortable.

[0088] Please continue to refer to FIG. 3 to FIG. 5, a side of the heating plate 112 where the connecting structure 15 is arranged is provided with a first wiring hole 1122, the heat insulation piece 1512 is provided with a second wiring hole 1113, and the first wiring hole 1122 is communicated with the second wiring hole 1113.

[0089] Understandably, the first wiring hole 1122 is positioned around the connecting structure 15 adjacent to the handle 12, and the second connecting hole 1113 is arranged on the heat insulation piece 1512. Such design makes a line routing distance of the signal connection for controlling the heating piece 11231 shorter, and hides lines in the elastic component 151 and the connecting structure 15, and does not need to separately arrange a connecting channel for the lines, so that the whole structure is more concise and beautiful.

[0090] Understandably, the control module is in a signal connection with the heating piece 11231 through the first wiring hole 1122 and the second wiring hole 1113, and is used for controlling switching on and off of the heating piece 11231.

[0091] Referring to FIG. 12, a second embodiment of the present disclosure provides another hair styling device 2, the heating plate 112 is provided with an ultrasonic device 21, an ultrasonic control circuit (not shown) is arranged in the shell 111, and the ultrasonic control circuit is in a signal connection with the ultrasonic device 21.

[0092] Understandably, in the embodiment, it does not make a specific limitation on the ultrasonic device 21, as long as it can produce a high-frequency vibration wave that satisfies user's demand. Specifically, it can be piezoelectric ceramics or the like.

[0093] Understandably, the hair styling device 2 with an ultrasonic function can generate high-frequency vibration waves so that the ultra-fine molecules of water and protein molecules can penetrate directly into the hair layer, and the hair care solution can be absorbed more effectively when the user uses the hair styling device 2.

[0094] Understandably, because there is a heat-insulation gap 13 in the hair styling device 2 in the embodiment, the high-frequency vibration wave can make the heating plate 112 produce a more obvious vibration effect, and because the heating plate 112 and the shell 111 are only connected through a connecting structure 15, its waterproof performance is greatly improved.

[0095] It is understandable that the hair styling device 2 in the present embodiment also includes all beneficial effects of the hair styling device 1, which will not be repeated herein.

[0096] Please further referring to FIG. 13, a third embodiment of the present disclosure provides another hair styling device 3. The hair styling device 3 is provided with a shell 111 bent at an angle on the basis of the hair styling device 1 and the hair styling device 2. A part of the shell 111 that is far away from the handle 12 is a first part 31, a part of the shell 111 adjacent to the handle 12 is a second part 32, and the heating plate 112 is arranged on the first part 31.

[0097] It is understandable that the shell 111 bent at an angle can meet different user' needs. For example, when a professional hair dresser is performing hair styling operations on a customer, in order to achieve better styling effect, his wrist will move frequently to find a suitable angle for operations. The shell 111 of the hair styling device 3 is bent at the angle, which can reduce its wrist actions, and is more convenient for operations.

[0098] Understandably, the angle α between the first part 31 and the second part 32 (as α shown in FIG. 13) is not specifically qualified in the present embodiment.

[0099] Understandably, the hair styling device 3 in this embodiment also includes all the beneficial effects of the hair styling device 1 and the hair styling device 2, which are not repeated herein.

[0100] The foregoing is only a better embodiment of the present disclosure and is not used to limit the present disclosure, and any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements, etc., made within the principles of the present disclosure shall be included in the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
