Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the drawings showing embodiments thereof.
FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view of a hair iron according to the present embodiment, FIG. 2 is a schematic front view of the hair iron, and FIGS. 3 and 4 are schematic side views of the hair iron. The hair iron is configured by connecting a first hair pinching arm 1 and a second hair pinching arm 2 for pinching hair with a hinge 3. The first hair pinching arm 1 and the second hair pinching arm 2 can be opened and closed with a hinge 3 having one end connected as a fulcrum. 1 and 4 show a state in which the first hair pinching arm 1 and the second hair pinching arm 2 are opened, and FIGS. 2 and 3 show that the first hair pinching arm 1 and the second hair pinching arm 2 are closed. Indicates the state. The first hair pinching arm 1 and the second hair pinching arm 2 have opposing surfaces facing each other.

  FIG. 5 is a schematic plan view of the first hair pinching arm 1, and FIG. 6 is a schematic bottom view of the first hair pinching arm 1. In FIG. 6, the opposing surface side of the 1st hair pinching arm 1 is shown. A heating unit 11 for heating the hair is provided at a portion near the other end of the facing surface of the first hair sandwiching arm 1. Similarly, a heating unit 21 is provided in a portion near the open end of the facing surface of the second hair sandwiching arm 2. The heating unit 11 and the heating unit 21 have a flat plate shape and are arranged at positions facing each other. In a state where the first hair sandwiching arm 1 and the second hair sandwiching arm 2 are closed, the heating unit 11 and the heating unit 21 are in contact with each other. The heating unit 11 and the heating unit 21 have a built-in heater, and the heating unit 11 and the heating unit 21 are in a state where the first hair sandwiching arm 1 and the second hair sandwiching arm 2 are closed with the hair sandwiched therebetween. Can warm the hair. The hair iron may have a form in which a slight gap exists between the heating unit 11 and the heating unit 21 even when the first hair holding arm 1 and the second hair holding arm 2 are closed.

  On the surface opposite to the facing surface of the first hair pinching arm 1, an operation unit 12 that receives a user operation is provided. For example, the operation unit 12 receives an operation instructing the heating unit 11 and the heating unit 21 to start heat generation.

  A comb portion 41 and a comb portion 42 in which a plurality of comb teeth are arranged in the longitudinal direction of the first hair pinching arm 1 are attached to the side portion of the first hair pinching arm 1. The comb portion 41 is attached to one side portion of the first hair pinching arm 1, and the comb portion 42 is attached to the other side portion of the first hair pinching arm 1. The comb part 41 and the comb part 42 are attached to positions where comb teeth are arranged on both sides of the heating part 11. The comb teeth of the comb portion 41 and the comb portion 42 are substantially parallel to each other. The comb portion 41 and the comb portion 42 are provided on the side portion of the first hair pinching arm 1, and even if the comb teeth are lengthened, they do not collide with the second hair pinching arm 2, so that the length of the comb teeth is limited. No. For this reason, the length of a comb tooth can be made into the length which follows the side of the 2nd hair pinching arm 2 in the state where the 1st hair pinching arm 1 and the 2nd hair pinching arm 2 were closed. In addition, the length of a comb tooth may be longer than the length shown in FIGS.

  The user can pinch the hair between the first hair pinching arm 1 and the second hair pinching arm 2 by holding the first hair pinching arm 1 and the second hair pinching arm 2 by hand. The lengths of the comb teeth of the comb portion 41 and the comb portion 42 are sufficiently long so that the hair can be combed in a state where the hair is sandwiched. After combing the hair sandwiched between the first hair sandwiching arm 1 and the second hair sandwiching arm 2, the user operates the operation unit 12 to apply the hair by the heating unit 11 and the heating unit 21. The temperature can be started to shape the hair. The user can also warm the hair while combing the hair. By using a hair iron, both correction of hair tangle and heating of the hair can be performed, and the user does not need to use a hair iron and a comb separately. In addition, in the conventional hair iron, the length of the protrusion is not sufficient to hold the hair, and the hair could not be sufficiently heated. Since the length is sufficient, a large amount of hair can be pressed together, and the hair can be more effectively heated to adjust the shape of the hair.

  The comb portion 41 is attached to an attachment member 51 partially protruding from the side surface of the first hair pinching arm 1, and similarly, the comb portion 42 is attached to the attachment member 52. FIG. 7 is an enlarged schematic plan view of a portion where the attachment member 51 and the attachment member 52 are provided. The attachment member 51 extends in the longitudinal direction of the first hair sandwiching arm 1 and is attached to the attachment portion 511 to which the comb portion 41 is attached. The attachment member 51 extends in the short direction of the first hair sandwiching arm 1. It is an L-shaped member including a slide part 512 that can be slid. Similarly, the attachment member 52 is an L-shaped member including the attachment portion 521 and the slide portion 522.

  FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram illustrating a state where the comb portion 41 is removed from the attachment portion 511. The attachment portion 511 is formed with an insertion hole 513 opened to the front side. The comb portion 41 is configured by providing a large number of comb teeth on the rod-like member, and is attached to the attachment portion 511 by inserting one end portion of the rod-like member where the comb teeth are not provided into the insertion hole 513. In this way, the comb portion 41 is attached to the side portion of the first hair pinching arm 1. Further, the comb part 41 can be detached from the first hair pinching arm 1 by pulling out the rod-like member of the comb part 41 from the insertion hole 513. For this reason, the comb part 41 can be exchanged. The comb portion 42 is also attached in the same manner. Since the comb part 41 and the comb part 42 are exchangeable, they can be replaced with the comb part 41 and the comb part 42 having different comb tooth lengths or pitches. The comb part 41 and the comb part 42 are changed according to the state of the length, thickness, amount and shape of the hair, and the hair shape is appropriately adjusted using the comb part 41 and the comb part 42 having a shape suitable for the hair state. It becomes possible.

  As shown in FIG. 7, a groove 15 is formed in the lateral direction on the upper surface portion of the first hair sandwiching arm 1, and the slide portion 512 and the slide portion 522 are fitted in the groove 15. On the upper side of the slide part 512 and the slide part 522, press plates 53 are provided. The pressing plates 53 and 53 are fixed to the upper surface of the first hair pinching arm 1 across the slide portion 512 and the slide portion 522, and suppress the movement by pressing the slide portion 512 and the slide portion 522 from above.

  FIG. 9 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the internal structure of the first hair clip arm 1 in the vicinity of the attachment member 51 and the attachment member 52. Under the slide part 512 and the slide part 522, a convex plate 54 whose central part is convex is disposed. The central portion of the convex plate 54 is in contact with the slide portion 512 and the slide portion 522. On the lower side of the convex plate 54, a spring 55 that biases the convex plate 54 in a direction to push it upward is disposed. Due to the urging force of the spring 55, the convex plate 54 is pressed against the slide portion 512 and the slide portion 522 from below. The slide part 512 and the slide part 522 are sandwiched between the pressing plates 53 and 53 and the convex plate 54, and the movement is suppressed. When the user presses the slide part 512 or the slide part 522 from above the first hair pinching arm 1, the convex plate 54 and the spring 55 are pushed down, and the slide part 512 or the slide part 522 and the pressing plates 53 and 53 A slight gap is generated between them, and the slide portion 512 or the slide portion 522 can be slid.

  FIG. 10 is a schematic plan view showing a state in which the slide part 512 and the slide part 522 are slid. As the slide part 512 slides, the protruding amount of the attachment member 51 changes, and the distance between the attachment part 511 and the side surface of the first hair pinching arm 1 is changed. By changing the distance between the attachment portion 511 to which the comb portion 41 is attached and the side surface of the first hair pinching arm 1, the size of the gap between the comb portion 41 and the side surface of the first hair pinching arm 1 is changed. In this way, the size of the gap between the comb portion 41 and the side surface of the first hair pinching arm 1 can be changed. Similarly, the size of the gap between the comb portion 42 and the side surface of the first hair sandwiching arm 1 can be changed. The distance between the comb teeth of the comb part 41 and the comb part 42 can be changed by changing the size of the gap between each comb part and the side surface of the first hair sandwiching arm 1. FIG. 11 is a schematic front view showing the hair iron in a state in which a gap between the comb portion 41 and the comb portion 42 and the side surface of the first hair pinching arm 1 is widened. Compared to the state shown in FIG. 2, the distance between the comb teeth of the comb portion 41 and the comb teeth of the comb portion 42 is larger. The size of the gap between the side surface of the first hair pinching arm 1 and the comb portion 41 or the comb portion 42 can be adjusted in a plurality of stages.

  When the hair is relatively long and large in quantity, the longer the distance between the comb teeth of the comb part 41 and the comb part 42, the more effectively the hair can be pressed and heated. On the other hand, when the hair is relatively short, it is convenient to reduce the distance between the comb teeth in order to reliably hold the hair. Thus, by changing the size of the gap between the comb portion 41 and the comb portion 42 and the side surface according to the state of the hair, it is possible to perform an operation for surely adjusting the shape according to the state of the hair. It becomes. In addition, by increasing the distance between the first hair sandwiching arm 1 and the second hair sandwiching arm 2 and the comb part 41 and the comb part 42, the heating part 11 and the warming part 12 and the comb part 41 and the comb part 42 are arranged. The distance can be increased. By increasing the distance between the heating unit 11 and the heating unit 12 and the comb unit 41 and the comb unit 42, it becomes difficult for heat to be transmitted from the heating unit 11 and the heating unit 12 to the comb unit 41 and the comb unit 42. In addition, the comb portion 42 can be heated to prevent the user from being burned. Moreover, since the comb part 41 and the comb part 42 are hard to be heated, deterioration of the comb part 41 and the comb part 42 by heat is suppressed.

Further, the first hair pinching arm 1 is provided with means for generating air ions. FIG. 12 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the inside of the first hair pinching arm 1. A heating unit 11 is arranged on the side of the first hair sandwiching arm 1 facing the second hair sandwiching arm 2. An air ion generator 14 is provided in the space inside the first hair sandwiching arm 1. The air ion generation unit 14 includes a needle-like discharge electrode and an annular induction electrode surrounding the discharge electrode. A voltage is applied between the discharge electrode and the dielectric electrode to generate corona discharge, and air ions are generated around the discharge electrode by the corona discharge. The air ion generator 14 includes two sets of discharge electrodes and dielectric electrodes, and generates positive and negative air ions such as H ⁺ (H ₂ O) _m and O ₂ ⁻ (H ₂ O) _n. Let Air ions correspond to the charged particles in the present invention. The operation unit 12 can accept an operation instructing the air ion generation unit 14 to start generating air ions. A plurality of discharge ports 13 for discharging air ions are formed on both side surfaces of the first hair sandwiching arm 1. The plurality of discharge ports 13 communicate with a space in which the air ion generator 14 is disposed. The air ions generated by the air ion generator 14 are discharged from a plurality of discharge ports 13 provided on the side surface of the first hair sandwiching arm 1 as indicated by arrows in FIG.

  The user can start generation of air ions by operating the operation unit 12 while combing the hair with the comb part 41 and the comb part 42 using a hair iron. Air ions are discharged from the plurality of discharge ports 13, and the air ions strike the hair pressed by the comb portion 41 and the comb portion 42. By applying air ions to the hair, the hair is neutralized and water is replenished. For this reason, the comb part 41 and the comb part 42 can easily pass through the hair, and the hair tangle can be effectively corrected. Further, air ions can be applied to the hair while the hair is heated by the heating unit 11 and the heating unit 21 while the hair is held between the first hair holding arm 1 and the second hair holding arm 2. At this time, since air ions are released between the comb part 41 and the comb part 42 and the warming part 11 and the warming part 21, the air ions are applied to the hair before and after the warming by the warming part 11 and the warming part 21. Is applied. Since moisture is replenished to the hair by air ions before and after heating, damage to the hair due to heat is suppressed. Therefore, the user can perform an operation of adjusting the shape of the hair while suppressing damage to the hair due to heat.

  In addition, in this Embodiment, although the form which attached the comb part 41 and the comb part 42 to the attachment member 51 and the attachment member 52 was shown, this is an example of the method of providing the comb part 41 and the comb part 42, and a hair iron is The form which provided the comb part 41 and the comb part 42 with the other method may be sufficient. For example, the comb portion 41 and the comb portion 42 may be attached to a member that protrudes from the side surface of the first hair pinching arm 1 and can be bent in the upper surface direction and the opposing surface direction of the first hair pinching arm 1. . In this embodiment, the angle of the comb teeth of the comb portion 41 and the comb portion 42 with respect to the side surface of the first hair sandwiching arm 1 can be changed by bending the member. If it is difficult for the user to use the hair iron on the long hair, such as when trying to use the hair iron in a straight line, the user can use the hair while snapping or rotating. An iron may be used. When the hair iron is to be snapped, the angle of the comb teeth of the comb portion 41 and the comb portion 42 is changed so that the tip of the comb teeth is narrowed, so that the passage of the hair with respect to the comb teeth is improved, and the user can The work of adjusting the shape can be easily performed. In addition, when rotating the hair iron, by changing the angle of the comb teeth of the comb portion 41 and the comb portion 42 so that the tips of the comb teeth spread, a large amount of hair can be pressed by the comb portion 41 and the comb portion 42 during rotation. The hair can be effectively heated and the shape of the hair can be adjusted. In this way, by changing the angle of the comb teeth, it is possible to perform an operation for surely adjusting the shape of the hair according to the method of using the hair iron.

  Moreover, in this Embodiment, although the comb part 41 and the comb part 42 showed the form which became removable from the 1st hair pinching arm 1, the comb part 41 and the comb part 42 became the 1st hair pinching arm 1 in a hair iron. The form integrally formed may be sufficient. Even in this form, a large amount of hair can be pressed together to effectively adjust the shape of the hair.

  Moreover, although the form which generate | occur | produces an air ion as a charged particle was shown in this Embodiment, the form which generates charged particles other than air ions, such as charged water, may be sufficient as a hair iron. Moreover, in this Embodiment, although the 1st hair pinching arm 1 and the 2nd hair pinching arm 2 showed the form connected with the hinge 3 at one end, a hair iron is in the middle of the 2nd hair pinching arm 2. The form where the 1st hair pinching arm 1 was connected by the hinge 3 at the position may be sufficient. Moreover, the shape of the 1st hair pinching arm 1 and the 2nd hair pinching arm 2 may be shapes other than the shape shown in this Embodiment. For example, the curling iron may have a shape in which the shape of the second hair pinching arm 2 is a round bar shape, and the cross-sectional shape of the first hair pinching arm 1 is an arc shape that fits around the second hair pinching arm 2. . Moreover, in this Embodiment, although the heating part was shown in which the heating part was provided in both the 1st hair pinching arm 1 and the 2nd hair pinching arm 2, a hair iron is the 1st hair pinching arm 1 and the 1st hair pinching arm. The heating part may be provided on only one of the two hair sandwiching arms 2.
