Description

Air suction curling component and curling iron Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of hair curlers, in particular to an air suction type hair curling component and a hair curler. Background Art

[0002] The hair dryer consists of a heating wire and a small fan. When powered on, the heating wire generates heat, and the air blown by the fan becomes hot air after passing through the heating wire. If the switch is turned off to turn off the heating wire, the air blows out cold air, thus achieving the purpose of drying and shaping the hair.

[0003] The curling irons currently on the market, such as CN217408065U and patent CN217408065U, have internal air guides that are perpendicular to the air inlet direction. The air guides direct the airflow straight to the air outlet, causing uneven dispersion of the airflow when it is blown out from the air outlet. As a result, the hair is adsorbed and overlapped at the same position on the outer surface of the curling iron. When the overlap reaches a certain amount, the remaining hair will not be adsorbed. At the same time, the drying and styling efficiency of the hair outside the adsorbed accessories is reduced, affecting the overall efficiency. Utility Model

[0004] In view of this, the present invention aims to address the deficiencies in the prior art, and its main purpose is to provide an air suction type curling assembly and a curling iron, which solves the problem of reduced drying and styling efficiency.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a wind suction type curling component, comprising:

[0006] A cylinder having an air cavity therein and a plurality of air outlets formed on an outer surface of the cylinder, the plurality of air outlets being spaced apart along the circumference of the cylinder; the cylinder having a first end and a second end in an axial direction, an air inlet formed in the axial direction of the first end, the air inlet, the air cavity, and the air outlets being in communication;

[0007] In which, a plurality of air guide vanes spaced axially along the cylinder are obliquely provided in the air cavity, and the air guide vanes guide the airflow to be evenly dispersed and blown out from the air outlet, and the angle between the air guide vane near the first end and the longitudinal section of the cylinder is smaller than the angle between the air guide vane near the second end and the longitudinal section of the cylinder.

[0008] In one embodiment, the angles between the plurality of air guide plates and the longitudinal section of the cylinder gradually increase from the first end to the second end.

[0009] In one embodiment, some of the air guide blades are arranged parallel to each other in the air cavity.

[0010] In one embodiment, the angle between the air guide plate at the end of the second end and the longitudinal section of the cylinder is 90°.

[0011] In one embodiment, the air guide blades are arranged to be tilted in the same direction.

[0012] In one embodiment, the air guide plate has an air guide surface, the air guide surface faces the air inlet, and the air guide surface is a plane or a curved surface; when the air guide surface is a curved surface, the protrusion of the curved surface faces the extension direction of the airflow.

[0013] In one embodiment, the cylinder includes an outer cylinder and an inner cylinder, the outer cylinder is sleeved outside the inner cylinder, and the air outlet is located on the outer surface of the outer cylinder; the inner cylinder includes a plurality of ribs arranged at intervals, and the plurality of ribs are arranged to form a cylindrical structure, and each rib extends along the axial direction of the cylinder, and the air guide plate is obliquely connected between two adjacent ribs.

[0014] In one embodiment, the inner cylinder is conical, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the inner cylinder gradually decreases from the first end to the second end.

[0015] In one embodiment, each of the bone ribs extends linearly along the axial direction of the cylinder, or each of the bone ribs extends obliquely along the axial direction of the cylinder.

[0016] A hair curler comprises: a hair barrel assembly and the wind suction type hair curling assembly, wherein the wind suction type hair curling assembly is fixed to the hair barrel assembly in a detachable connection manner.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has obvious advantages and beneficial effects. Specifically, it can be seen from the above technical solution that:

[0018] First, by tilting the air guide blades in the air cavity, the tilted air guide blades are conducive to guiding the airflow to diffuse outward from the axial direction of the cylinder along the direction of the airflow, so that the airflow is blown out from the air outlet in a uniform and dispersed manner, thereby being able to adsorb the hair in a spiral and uniform dispersion on the surface of the cylinder, thereby improving the hair drying and styling efficiency without affecting the overall styling effect.

[0019] Secondly, by designing that the inclination angle of the air guide blades near the first end is greater than the inclination angle of the air guide blades near the second end, the inclination angle of the air guide blades near the first end is set to be larger because the hair needs to be spread out more near the first end. Near the tail (second end), the requirement for spreading out can be appropriately reduced due to the limited space for adsorption shaping, so the inclination angle of the air guide blades near the second end is set to be smaller. The flexible arrangement of the inclination angles of the air guide blades at different positions can achieve the best effect of making the hair more evenly adsorbed on the barrel.

[0040] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by this application more clearly understood, this application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0041] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being “fixed on” or “disposed on” another element, it may be directly on the other element or indirectly on the other element. When an element is referred to as being “connected to” another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or indirectly connected to the other element.

[0042] It should be understood that the terms "length", "width", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating the orientation or position relationship, are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on this application.

[0043] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of the technical features being referred to. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. Throughout the description of this application, "plurality" means two or more, unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0044] Referring to Figures 1 to 8 , the present application provides a suction-type curling assembly for sucking hair onto an outer surface and then drying it with airflow. The suction-type curling assembly comprises a barrel 10 having an internal air cavity 101 for airflow. The outer surface of the barrel 10 is provided with a plurality of air outlets 102, which are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the barrel 10. The barrel 10 has a first end 1 and a second end 2 along the axial direction. The first end 1 can be understood as the proximal end (with higher airflow) and the second end 2 as the distal end (with lower airflow). An air inlet 103 is provided axially at the first end 1 for insertion into the hair dryer assembly. The air inlet 103, the air cavity 101 and the air outlet 102 are connected, and the air flow flows through the air inlet 103, the air cavity 101 and the air outlet 102 in sequence. The air flow blown out through the air outlet 102 flows along the outer surface of the barrel 10, and the flowing air flow produces a wall adhesion effect, thereby adsorbing the hair to the outer surface of the barrel 10.

[0045] As shown in Figures 2-8 , a plurality of air guide vanes 20 are disposed obliquely within the air cavity 101, spaced axially along the barrel 10. These vanes 20 guide the airflow, evenly dispersing it out through the air outlet 102. The oblique arrangement of the air guide vanes 20 facilitates directing the airflow outward from the barrel's axial direction, thus ensuring a uniform and dispersed airflow out through the outlet. This allows the hair 3 to be uniformly adsorbed onto the surface of the barrel 10 in a spiral pattern, improving hair drying and styling efficiency without affecting the overall styling effect (see Figure 5 ). And the angle A between the air guide piece 20 near the first end 1 and the longitudinal section of the cylinder 10 is smaller than the angle A between the air guide piece 20 near the second end 2 and the longitudinal section of the cylinder 10. It can be understood that the larger the inclination angle of the air guide piece 20 near the first end 1, the smaller the inclination angle of the air guide piece 20 near the second end 2. The larger the inclination angle, the better the effect of outward diffusion of the air flow. Since the hair needs to be spread out more near the first end, the inclination angle of the air guide piece 20 near the first end 1 is set to be larger. Near the tail (second end), the requirement for spreading out can be appropriately reduced due to the limited space for adsorption shaping. Therefore, the inclination angle of the air guide piece 20 near the second end 2 is set to be smaller. By flexibly arranging the inclination angles of the air guide pieces 20 at different positions, the effect of making the hair more evenly adsorbed on the cylinder can be achieved.

[0046] As shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 , the airflow is evenly dispersed and blown out of the air outlet 102 under the guidance of the air guide plate 20 , so that the hair is evenly dispersed and adsorbed on the surface of the barrel 10 .

[0047] As shown in FIG. 7 , the air guide blades 20 arranged obliquely at various positions in the air cavity 101 guide the air flow to be blown out from the air outlet 102 in a dispersed and even manner, thereby achieving the best drying effect for the hairstyle.

[0048] Optionally, the included angle between the air guide piece 20 and the longitudinal section of the cylinder 10 is between 0-90 degrees. Preferably, the included angle A between the air guide piece 20 and the longitudinal section of the cylinder 10 is 45 degrees to achieve the most ideal diversion effect.

[0049] As shown in Figure 3, in one embodiment of the present application, the angle A between the multiple air guides 20 and the longitudinal section of the barrel 10 gradually increases from the first end 1 to the second end 2. This can be understood as the inclination angles of the air guides 20 being inconsistent. As shown in Figure 4, the angle A between the terminal air guide 201 at the second end 2 and the longitudinal section of the barrel 10 can be 90°. Flexible adjustment of the inclination angles of the air guides 20 at different locations optimizes the uniform absorption of hair onto the barrel.

[0050] In another embodiment of the present application, some of the air guide blades 20 are arranged parallel to each other in the air cavity 101 to facilitate processing, and the remaining air guide blades 20 are arranged at different inclination angles. For example, the multiple air guide blades 20 near the first end can be tilted 45° to ensure that the hair wrapped around the first end 1 can be evenly spread out.

[0051] The air guide blades 20 are arranged to tilt in the same direction. Specifically, one end of each air guide blade 20 is tilted toward the corresponding air outlet 102 to ensure stable airflow.

[0052] As shown in Figures 3, 4, and 6, in one embodiment of the present application, the air guide 20 has an air guide surface 21. The air guide surface 21 faces the air inlet 103 and is flat or curved. Of course, the air guide surface 21 can also be a surface of other shapes as long as it can guide the airflow. When the airflow reaches the air guide surface 21, the air guide surface 21 changes the flow direction of the airflow and flows the airflow toward the air outlet 102. When the air guide surface 21 is a curved surface, the protrusion of the curved surface faces the direction of the airflow so as not to hinder the flow of air.

[0053] The barrel can be an integral injection molding structure or a non-integrated assembly structure, which is not limited in this embodiment. Specifically, in the implementation process of the solution, for the convenience of production and assembly, the barrel can be a non-integrated assembly structure.

[0054] As shown in Figure 2, in one embodiment of the present application, the cylinder 10 includes an outer cylinder 11 and an inner cylinder 12. The outer cylinder 11 is sleeved outside the inner cylinder 12, and the air outlet 102 is located on the outer surface of the outer cylinder 11. The inner cylinder 12 includes a plurality of spaced ribs 121 arranged to form a cylindrical structure. The space between the ribs 121 forms the air cavity 101. Each rib 121 extends along the axial direction of the cylinder 10, and the air guide vanes 20 are obliquely connected between adjacent ribs 121. It can be understood that the air guide vanes 20 are components of the inner cylinder 12. The cylinder 10 adopts an assembled structure, which is easy to produce and assemble.

[0055] Optionally, the inner cylinder 12 can be fixed in the outer cylinder 11 by snapping, fitting, screwing or gluing. In this case, a detachable connection between the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder can be achieved, which makes it easy to clean the product after it is manufactured.

[0056] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, optionally, the outer cylinder 11 is formed by a plurality of curved plates, and there is an upper and lower overlapping portion between two adjacent curved plates, and the overlapping portion forms an air outlet 102. The multiple air outlets can be arranged at equal intervals. By setting up a plurality of curved plates and coordinating the equally spaced air outlets 102, uniform air outlet can be achieved, and the setting of more air outlets can increase the heating condition of the hair to a certain extent, so that better effects can be achieved at lower temperatures.

[0057] As shown in Figure 7 , in one embodiment of the present application, the inner cylinder 12 is conical in shape, which can be understood as the air cavity 101 being conical. As can be clearly seen from the enlarged partial views A and B in Figure 7 , the cross-sectional area of ​​the inner cylinder 12 gradually decreases from the first end 1 toward the second end 2. By designing the inner cylinder 12 as a cone, the large-diameter end of the cone-shaped inner cylinder 12 is located at the first end 1, ensuring sufficient air intake, while the small-diameter end is located at the second end 2, ensuring that the rear end of the airflow converges at the second end 2, ensuring sufficient airflow and evenly dispersed airflow. Of course, the inner cylinder 12 can also have other shapes, as long as the airflow converges at the second end 2.

[0058] In one embodiment of the present application, each bone rib 121 extends in a straight line along the axial direction of the cylinder 10, or each bone rib 121 extends obliquely along the axial direction of the cylinder 10. Specifically, the bone rib 121 extends toward the air outlet 102. The oblique extension of the bone rib 121 can effectively guide and converge the airflow compared to the straight extension, thereby ensuring that the airflow is stably blown out from the air outlet 102.

[0059] As shown in Figures 3 and 9 , the present application also provides a hair curler comprising a hair drum assembly 30 and the aforementioned air-suction hair curling assembly 40. The air-suction hair curling assembly 40 is removably secured to the hair drum assembly 30. Furthermore, the hair drum assembly 30 also serves as a hand grip and is coaxial with the air-suction hair curling assembly 40. Because this hair curler utilizes all of the technical solutions of all of the aforementioned embodiments, it also possesses all of the beneficial effects provided by the technical solutions of these embodiments, which will not be detailed here.

[0060] As shown in Figures 3 and 10 , the present application also provides a hair curler comprising a hair drum assembly 30 and the aforementioned air suction curling assembly 40. The air suction curling assembly 40 is detachably connected to the hair drum assembly 30. Furthermore, a hand grip is provided on one side of the hair drum assembly 30, the hand grip being perpendicular to the hair drum assembly 30. This hair curler utilizes all the technical solutions of the aforementioned embodiments.

[0061] Through the demonstration of two different types of curling irons in Figures 9 and 10, the air suction curling assembly 40 of the present invention can be used in curling irons of various shapes and types, and therefore also has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0062] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
