CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] The application claims priority to Chinese patent application No. 2024101275611, filed on Jan. 30, 2024, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The present invention relates to the technical field of hair straightening comb products, and in particular, to a hair straightening comb with electric-heating and atomization that has an appropriate structural design and offer good user experience.BACKGROUND

[0003] Hair straightening comb products are common products used by people in daily life. Generally, a functional feature of the products is to add a sprayer apparatus on the basis of a conventional hair straightening comb, to spread a cosmeceutical spray over hair and scalp during hair brushing.

[0004] With continuous development and progresses of technologies, existing hair straightening comb products have been greatly improved and enhanced in aspects of specific functions and structures. Some become easier to hold, and some are upgraded with temperature regulation mechanisms, bringing better user experience. However, there are still some drawbacks. For example, a spray actually mostly relies on atomization by using an atomizer piece, or a spraying effect is improved by using a fan, but the effect is poor.

[0005] For example, in the utility model patent application No. CN202123212048.3 entitled “Spray Hair Straightening Comb”, a spray hair straightening comb is specifically disclosed, and includes a shaft and a comb part. The shaft is fixed below the comb part, and the comb part is provided with teeth, where: an upper part of the shaft is provided with a spray opening, an atomizer is disposed in the shaft, and an output end of the atomizer is provided on the spray opening. As the spray opening is provided on the shaft and is kept a specific distance from the teeth, when a spray is spread, the spray does not stick to the teeth, so that a spraying effect is improved.

[0006] The foregoing solution in a conventional technology has a problem of a relatively poor spraying effect. To further enhance product performance, a specific aspect of a structure needs to be improved and enhanced.SUMMARY

[0007] A problem in a conventional technology to be resolved in this application is that:
