AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing hair styling appliances, such as hair straighteners, can cause damage to hair due to the combination of heat and pressure, especially with repeated use.

Method used

A hair styling instrument with movable panels that maintain a non-zero gap in the closed state, reducing pressure on the hair and minimizing air flow along the hair portion to prevent cuticle scale lifting, while using heated air and secondary heating elements to style and dry the hair.

Benefits of technology

The solution effectively reduces hair damage by minimizing pressure and air flow along the hair, while enhancing hair gloss and straightening without distorting the hair, even with repeated use.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a hair styling appliance (110), and more particularly to an appliance that can be used for drying and / or styling hair. This appliance is expected to be effective in partially straightening curly hair, or alternatively, in drying and smoothing straight hair. The present invention provides a hair styling appliance comprising a first panel (114) and a second panel (116), wherein the second panel is movable relative to the first panel. The panels are spaced apart by a non-zero distance (S) when closed together. The appliance comprises an electric motor, an impeller, an electric heating element, and an air flow path. The first panel has a first aperture in communication with the air flow path. The second panel has a second aperture in communication with an exhaust path. The first and second panels are wavy in order to increase the surface area of the panels and to increase the length of the hair path passing between the panels.
