Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present application relates to self-care products, and in particular to epilators. [Background technology]

[0002] Epilators refer to small electric appliances for removing body hair. Epilators on the market are mainly for women, and are used to remove hair from areas such as underarm hair and leg hair, which contributes to women's appearance. Epilators use lasers to permanently remove hair. There are three main types of epilators: the first is the laser epilator, which is used for the fastest hair removal and has the best effect; the second is the strong pulse light epilator, which has the same ideal hair removal effect, is safer and less painful than lasers, causes less damage to the skin, and does not require specialized staff to operate, but still has a large energy when applied to home epilators; and the third is the home pulse laser epilator, which is a third-generation light hair removal technology that adjusts the energy parameters based on IPL based on the characteristics of Asian skin and hair. Whether it is a beauty salon or a home epilator, they all belong to light hair removal, and no matter what light energy is used, the basic method is the same: the melanin in the hair follicle absorbs the heat of the light, causing the hair root to be destroyed, denatured, and atrophied, so that the hair will not come out for a while.

[0003] Conventional hair removal devices only have one usage state, and the positions of the hair removal part and the hand-held part are relatively fixed, and it is not possible to change the positions of the hair removal part and the hand-held part according to different areas or the user's usage habits to make it easier for users to use. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] The main technical problem that this application aims to solve is to provide a rotating and folding epilator, in which the relative positions of the epilating part and the gripping part can be adjusted, thereby making it easier for users to use. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a rotary folding epilator, which includes a holding portion and a hair removal portion, and the holding portion and the hair removal portion are connected by a rotating shaft, thereby rotating the hair removal portion relative to the holding portion and changing the included angle between the holding portion and the hair removal portion.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment, opposing sides of the gripping portion and the epilating portion are bevel-engaged.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the depilation portion on the side facing the gripping portion, and the gripping portion is provided with an insertion groove for inserting and engaging with the rotating shaft.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the depilation part has an elastic pin disposed outside the rotating shaft, and the gripping part has a groove disposed outside the insertion groove for positionally engaging with the elastic pin.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, there are two such grooves, which are arranged to form an included angle of 180°.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, a side surface of the rotating shaft protrudes outward in a radial direction to form a limiting block, and the gripping portion has a limiting engagement block that is limitingly engaged with the limiting block in a rotational direction, thereby limiting the rotation angle of the rotating shaft.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the epilation section further includes a heat sink, a heat sink fan and a photon epilation assembly, and a blowing surface of the heat sink fan communicates with the heat sink and the photon epilation assembly.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the photonic hair removal assembly includes an IPL light tube and a reflector cup, the reflector cup being adapted to reflect a portion of the light emitted from the IPL light tube towards a light outlet of the photonic hair removal assembly; The blowing surface of the heat dissipation fan communicates with the surface of the reflector cup and the surface of the IPL tube light respectively.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, a position sensor and a sensing collaboration device are further installed on the hair removal portion and the holding portion, respectively. There are two sensing collaboration devices. When the angle formed between the holding portion and the hair removal portion is 90°, the first sensing collaboration device and the position sensor work together to perform sensing. When the angle formed between the holding portion and the hair removal portion is 180°, the second sensing collaboration device and the position sensor work together to perform sensing.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the sensing linkage is a magnet and the position sensor is a Hall sensor, the signal output terminal of which establishes a data connection with the main control circuit board. Effect of the Invention

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] First, the present application provides a rotating and folding epilator, in which the epilation part and the hand-held part are rotatably connected, allowing the relative positions of the epilation part and the hand-held part to be changed, thereby allowing the positions of the epilation part and the hand-held part to be changed according to different areas or the user's usage habits, making it easier for users to use.

[0017] Secondly, the present application provides a rotating and folding epilator, in which the elastic pin and the groove engage with each other to provide clear indication when the epilator part rotates to form an included angle of 180° or 90° with the grip part, thereby facilitating the user to rotate it to a predetermined position for use.

[0018] Thirdly, the present application provides a rotating and folding type epilator, in which the epilation part and the grip part are further linked by a position sensor and a sensing linkage device, and the position sensor sends a signal to the main control circuit board only when the epilation part is rotated to form an included angle of 180° or 90° with the grip part, and only then can the user perform operations related to epilation; if the epilation part is not rotated to the specified position, the epilation operation cannot be performed.

[0019] Fourthly, the present application provides a rotating folding epilator, in which the heat dissipation fan simultaneously dissipates heat from the heat sink, the reflecting cup and the IPL tube light, which can not only immediately carry away the heat on the heat sink, but also carry away part of the heat on the reflecting cup and the IPL tube light to assist in heat dissipation, thereby reducing the heat dissipation pressure of the heat sink and improving the heat dissipation efficiency.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0021] Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings of the embodiments of the present invention, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. Any other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without the need for inventive efforts, all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0022] In describing the present invention, it should be explained that the orientations or positional relationships indicated by the terms "upper", "lower", "inner", "outer", "top / bottom", etc. are orientations or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are merely for the purpose of making the present invention easier to describe and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the indicated devices or elements necessarily have a particular orientation, and must be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore should not be understood as limiting the present invention. Also, the terms "first" and "second" are merely for the purpose of explanation, and should not be understood as indicating or implying a relative importance.

[0023] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "mounting", "installation", "fitting", "connection" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, "connection" may be a wall-mounted connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection, may be a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, a direct connection, an indirect connection through an intermediate element, or an internal communication between two elements, and those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in the present invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0024] 1 to 15, this embodiment provides a rotary folding epilator, which includes a grip part 1 and a hair removal part 2, and the grip part 1 and the hair removal part 2 are connected by a rotary shaft 21, so that the hair removal part 2 can be rotated relative to the grip part 1 and the included angle formed by the grip part 1 and the hair removal part 2 can be changed. The rotary folding epilator allows the relative positions of the hair removal part 2 and the handheld part to be changed by rotatably connecting the hair removal part 2 and the handheld part, so that the positions of the hair removal part 2 and the handheld part can be changed according to different areas or the user's usage habits, making it easier for the user to use.

[0025] The opposite sides of the gripping portion 1 and the depilating portion 2 are bevel-engaged so that the included angle between the gripping portion 1 and the depilating portion 2 also changes in the process of their relative rotation.

[0026] In this embodiment, the included angle a of the inclined surface is 45°, and when the gripping portion 1 and the hair removal portion 2 are in the first position, the included angle b between the gripping portion 1 and the hair removal portion 2 is 180°, and when the gripping portion 1 and the hair removal portion 2 are in the second position, the included angle b between the gripping portion 1 and the hair removal portion 2 is 90°. Therefore, the included angle b between the gripping portion 1 and the hair removal portion 2 can vary between 90° and 180°. This embodiment is not limited to the included angle a being 45°, and the included angle a may be other values. For example, when the included angle a is 60°, the included angle b between the gripping portion 1 and the hair removal portion 2 can vary between 120° and 180°. To realize the rotational connection between the grip part 1 and the depilation part 2, the rotating shaft 21 is fixedly connected to the side of the depilation part 2 facing the grip part 1, and an insertion groove 11 is provided in the grip part 1 to insert and engage with the rotating shaft 21. By inserting the rotating shaft 21 into the insertion groove 11, the rotational engagement between them can be realized.

[0027] At the same time, in order to allow the user to clearly understand that the hair removal portion 2 has been rotated to a predetermined position and to prevent excessive rotation, the hair removal portion 2 is provided with an elastic pin 22 on the outside of the rotating shaft 21, and the gripping portion 1 is provided with a groove 12 on the outside of the insertion groove 11 for positioning and engaging with the elastic pin 22. In this way, when the hair removal portion 2 is rotated to a predetermined position, the elastic pin 22 enters the groove 12 and collides with the groove 12 due to the action of the spring, making a pattering sound to alert the user by voice.

[0028] 7 to 10, in this embodiment, the included angle between the gripping portion 1 and the hair removal portion 2 varies between 90° and 180°, and therefore, in order to accurately identify the two positions where the included angle b between the gripping portion 1 and the hair removal portion 2 is 90° and 180°, there are two grooves 12, and the two grooves 12 are installed to form an included angle of 180°, because the included angle b between the gripping portion 1 and the hair removal portion 2 varies between 90° and 180°, but the rotation angle of the hair removal portion 2 relative to the gripping portion 1 is 0 to 180°. The number of grooves may be increased according to the range requirements, so that the rotation range can be increased.

[0029] In order to prevent the rotating shaft 21 from falling out after being inserted into the insertion groove 11, the side of the rotating shaft 21 protrudes outward in the radial direction to form a limiting block 27, and the gripping portion 1 has a limiting engagement block 14 that is limitingly engaged with the limiting block 27 in the rotational direction, thereby limiting the rotation angle of the rotating shaft.

[0030] In addition, the hair removal portion 2 and the gripping portion 1 are further provided with a position sensor 13 and a sensing linkage device 23, respectively. There are two sensing linkage devices 23. When the angle formed by the gripping portion 1 and the hair removal portion 2 is 90°, the first sensing linkage device 23 and the position sensor 13 sense in cooperation with each other. When the angle formed by the gripping portion 1 and the hair removal portion 2 is 180°, the second sensing linkage device 23 and the position sensor 13 sense in cooperation with each other. After being installed in this manner, the hair removal portion 2 and the gripping portion 1 are further linked by the position sensor 13 and the sensing linkage device 23. Only when the hair removal portion 2 rotates to form an angle of 180° or 90° with the gripping portion 1, the position sensor 13 transmits a signal to the main control circuit board. Only at this time can the user perform operations related to hair removal. If the hair removal portion 2 does not rotate to the predetermined position, the hair removal operation cannot be performed.

[0031] In this embodiment, the sensing linkage device 23 is a magnet, and the position sensor 13 is a Hall sensor, whose signal output terminal establishes a data connection with the main control circuit board.

[0032] In the present embodiment, the hair removal part 2 further includes a heat sink 28, a heat sink fan 24, and a photon hair removal assembly, and the blowing surface of the heat sink fan 24 is connected to the heat sink 28 and the photon hair removal assembly. The photon hair removal assembly includes an IPL tube light 25 and a reflector cup 26, and the reflector cup 26 is for reflecting a part of the light emitted from the IPL tube light 25 toward the light outlet of the photon hair removal assembly, and the blowing surface of the heat sink fan 24 is connected to the surface of the reflector cup 26 and the surface of the IPL tube light 25. The heat dissipation fan 24 simultaneously dissipates heat from the heat sink 28, the reflecting cup 26 and the IPL tube light 25, which can not only immediately carry away the heat on the heat sink 28, but also assist in heat dissipation by carrying away part of the heat on the reflecting cup 26 and the IPL tube light 25, thereby reducing the heat dissipation pressure of the heat sink 28 and improving the heat dissipation efficiency.

[0033] The above description is merely a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the design concept of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any non-essential modification of the present invention by a person skilled in the art based on this concept within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention constitutes an act of infringing the protection scope of the present invention.
