Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a manual hairdressing and styling device, particularly to one provided with a plurality of upper styling members and of lower styling members for selectably used for setting various styles on hairs, having good function for hairdressing and protecting hairs as well.
A known conventional manual hairdressing and styling device shown in
FIG. 1
two clamping members
11
, and two heating members
12
fixed on the flat surfaces
1110
of the clamping portions
111
located in the front portions of the clamping members
11
, a plurality of combing bars
13
spaced apart beside the clamping portions
111
. The heating members
12
alters electricity into heat for warming hairs. Then a hair dresser holds grips of the clamping members
11
for clamping hairs for warming and then gradually move the clamping members
11
rearward. Then hairs are combed first by the combing bars
13
, and set into a straight condition by the flat surfaces
1110
.
However, the conventional manual hairdressing and styling device has only a function for straighten hairs, not a good hair dressing function because of aluminum heaters, and there is potent danger of harming quality of hairs.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
A first embodiment of a manual hairdressing and styling device in the present invention, as shown in
FIGS. 2 and 3
, includes at least two clamping members
21
and two heating members
22
fixed on two flat surfaces of a clamping mouth
211
of the clamping members
21
and having a heater for altering electricity into heat for heating the heating members
22
.
The two heating members
22
are respectively fixed in an inner flat surfaces
2110
of the clamping mouth
211
and located flush with or only a little higher than the inner flat surfaces
2110
, and having more than two threaded holes
221
in an outer surface to fix an upper and a lower styling member
24
and
25
respectively on the two heating members
22
closely.
Two bases
23
are provided respectively with a engage groove
231
in the intermediate portion of an outer surface, more than two through holes aligned to the threaded holes
221
of the two heating members
22
for bolts
233
to fix the base
23
closely on the heating member
22
. The engage groove
231
is shaped as a dove-tail to easily connect with the upper and the lower styling member
25
and
24
. The through holes
232
respectively have a large diameter section for the head of the bolt
233
to fit in so as not to protrude out of the outer surface of the base
23
to hamper connecting with the upper and the lower styling member
25
and
24
.
The lower styling member
24
is made of ceramics, having a regular curve surface
241
formed in an outer surface for styling hairs, and a projection
242
formed in an intermediate lengthwise portion to engage with the engage groove
231
of the base
23
. The projection
242
may be shaped as a dove-tail so as to easily connect with or disconnect from the engage groove
231
, then different lower styling members
24
may be prepared, having different styling surfaces
241
such as flat, triangular, curved or wave surface for styling hairs of various shapes.
The upper styling member
25
is also made of ceramics, having a curved surface
251
as the same as the regular curve surface
241
of the lower styling member
24
, and an engage projection
252
in an intermediate lengthwise portion of an upper surface to engage with the engage groove
231
of the base
23
. The engage projection
251
may be shaped as a dove-tail so as to easily connect or disconnect the upper styling member
25
with the base
23
. Then a plurality of the upper styling members
25
with different styling surfaces
251
may be prepared for styling hairs of various shapes in the same way of the lower styling member
24
.
In using the manual hairdressing and styling device, firstly, choose a lower styling member
24
and an upper styling member
25
having the hair style needed, then connect them with the bases
23
. Then turn on the heating members
22
. After the heat of the heating members
22
is transmitted to the bases
23
and then to the upper and the lower styling members
25
, the upper and and the lower styling members
25
and
24
may produce far infrared light of 6000 nm-40,000 nm. In hairdressing process, the clamping members
21
continue to clamp hairs for a proper time to let the hairs get warmed up and set into the style of the styling surfaces
251
,
241
of the upper and the lower styling member
25
and
24
, and then is moved slowly and gradually rearward. And it is worth to mention that far infrared light produced by the the upper and the lower styling member
25
and
24
has protective function during hairdressing, never harming hairs but letting the inner organization of hairs get more nourished. In addition, hairs can keep curling for a comparative long time after treated by the upper and the lower styling member
25
and
24
made of ceramics.
Next,
FIG. 5
shows the manual hairdressing and styling device additionally provided with a temperature adjuster
213
fixed in an outer surface of one grip
212
formed in the rear portion of the clamping members
21
, for controlling the heating members
22
so that a person receiving hairdressing may feel comfortable during hairdressing process by means of proper temperature.
FIG. 6
shows a second embodiment of a manual hairdressing and styling device in the invention, including two clamping members
31
, two heating members, two bases, and an upper and a lower styling members
32
and
33
as the first embodiment has. But the upper and the lower clamping member
311
,
312
are pivotally connected with each other at their rear end with a pivot
313
so as to swing up and down for clamping hairs. Two grip portions
3110
,
3120
are formed between the pivot
313
and the upper and the lower styling members
32
and
33
for a hand of a user to clamp the clamping portions
311
,
312
. Then the space between the upper and the lower styling member
32
and
33
can be comparative wide by provision of the grip portions
3110
,
3120
so that changing the upper and the lower styling member
32
and
33
and hair dressing work can be very convenient. In addition, a temperature adjuster may be provided in the outer surface of the grip
3110
or
3120
for controlling the temperature of the heating members. The upper and the lower styling members
32
and
33
of the second embodiment are especially suitable for straightening hairs, having regular flat surfaces.
Besides,
FIG. 7
shows an upper and an lower styling member
32
and
33
having a trapezoidal shape, forming hairs naturally curling a little to make a new style for users'pleasure.
While the preferred embodiments of the invention have been described above, it will be recognized and understood that various modifications may be made therein and the appended claims are intended to cover all such modifications which may fall within the spirit and scope of the invention.
