In the description of the present application, “multiple” means two or more, unless otherwise specified.

Please refer to FIGS. 1 to 10. The present application provides a marcel waver including two arms 10 that are hinged with each other and can be opened or closed. Each arm 10 is provided with a heating device 20, which has at least two heating surfaces 201 to straighten and wave hair; an adjustment device 30 is connected and drives the two heating devices 20 to flip. Compared to traditional two heating devices that require separate adjustment devices to adjust and drive, this marcel waver only requires one adjustment device 30 to drive the two heating devices 20 to flip, rendering it more convenient to use and reducing the number of components, thereby reducing a production cost and equipment space occupation.

Specifically, when the heating device 20 rotates to different shaping angle positions, different heating surfaces 201 of the heating device 20 are used to heat the hair to complete different shaping. This marcel waver can be opened or closed between its arms 10 to achieve hair clamping and fixation. When a consumer needs to switch between different states of the marcel waver, the adjustment device 30 is operated, so that an output end of the adjustment device 30 drives the two heating devices 20 to switch states. In a closed state, as shown in FIG. 1, when the heating device 20 rotates to a horizontal state, it can be used for straightening hair style. As shown in FIG. 2, when the heating device 20 rotates vertically, it can be used for waving hair style.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, for example, each heating device 20 has at least a heating surface for straightening hair 21 and at least one heating arc surface for waving hair 22. When straightening is required, both arms 10 are closed, the hair is clamped on an upper and a lower straight heating surface 21, and the device is pulled to straighten the hair. When switching to waving hair, the adjustment device 30 is operated so that an output end of the adjustment device 30 simultaneously drives the two heating devices 20 to rotate at a certain angle, so that the upper and lower heating surfaces for waving hair 22 are opposite and arranged in a staggered manner, and the hair flows around the two heating surfaces for waving hair 22. The heating arc surfaces for waving hair 22 heat the hair, achieving a curly effect. Of course, the heating surface 201 is not limited to planar or arc-shaped shapes, for example, it can also be a trapezoidal heating surface, a raised arc-shaped heating surface, or a concave arc-shaped heating surface, etc.

In one embodiment of the present application, the adjustment device 30 includes an adjustment element 31 for a user to perform an adjustment operation and two transmission mechanism that form a power connection and/or signal connection with the adjustment element 31. One ends of the two transmission mechanisms are connected to the adjustment element 31, and the other ends thereof are respectively connected to a corresponding heating device 20.

For example, when the transmission mechanism is connected to the adjustment element 31 as a signal connection, the adjustment element 31 can be a triggering component such as a push button, knob, button, touch screen, etc. that can trigger an electrical signal. The transmission mechanism can be a motor, and the motor and triggering component are electrically connected by wires. When the triggering component gives an electrical signal to the motor, an output shaft of the motor drives the heating device 20 to rotate. Specifically, it can be that a gear structure is connected to a rotation shaft 202 of the heating device 20 and the output shaft of the motor.

The adjustment element 31 is located at a holding end 12 or a shaping end 11 of one arm 10. When is provided at the holding end, it is convenient to hold the marcel waver while controlling the adjustment element 31. When is provided at the shaping end 11, it has an effect of preventing an accidental collision, accidental starting, and accidental closing.

In one embodiment of the present application, two transmission mechanism are driven by the adjustment element 31 to flip two heating devices 20 sequentially, as detailed in Embodiment 3. In another embodiment of the present application, two transmission mechanisms are driven by the adjustment element 31 to synchronously flip two heating devices 20, as detailed in Embodiments 1 and 2.

Each transmission mechanism includes a first transmission member 32 connected to the adjustment element 31 and a second transmission member 33 connected between the first transmission member 32 and the heating device 20, which brakes the adjustment element 31 and links the two heating devices 20 to flip sequentially or synchronously.

Embodiment 1

Based on a functional and structural settings of the marcel waver, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 8, in the first embodiment, two heating devices 20 are synchronously flipped by driving the two transmission mechanisms through one of the adjustment elements 31.

In the first embodiment, the adjustment element 31 drives the first transmission member 32 to rotate on the arm 10, and the first transmission member 32 rotates and drives the heating device 20 to flip.

Specifically, in the first embodiment, the first transmission member 32 is a shaft 321, the second transmission member 33 is a first gear 331, the adjustment element 31 is a knob 311, and a gear part 3111 is provided on the knob 311. An input end of a rotation shaft 321 is provided with a second gear 34, which meshes with the gear portion 3111. The output end of rotation shaft 321 is provided with a third gear 35, which meshes with the first gear 331. The knob 311 is rotated to synchronously drive the two rotation shafts 321 to rotate, and the two rotation shafts 321 drive a corresponding heating device 20 to flip.

As shown in FIGS. 5 and 7, in one embodiment of the present application, each tooth of the second gear 34 and the gear part 3111 has a flat surface 301 and an inclined surface 302, and there are at least two teeth on the second gear 34 and the gear part 3111. In a closed state of the two arms 10, the flat surface 301 on the second gear 34 meshes with the flat surface 301 on the gear part 3111. Specifically, the flat surface 301 on a peak of the second gear 34 meshes with the flat surface 301 on a valley the gear part 3111, and the flat surface 301 on the valley of the second gear 34 meshes with the flat surface 301 on the peak of the gear portion 3111.

When the two arms 10 are in an open state, the inclined surface 302 of the second gear 34 meshes with the inclined surface 302 on the gear portion 311. The inclined surface 302 is located on both sides of the flat plane 301 on the peak, and the inclined surfaces 302 on the same side can be connected in sequence to ensure a stability of the meshing. When the two arms 10 switch from a closed state to an open state, an end of the second gear 34 near the gear part 3111 is lifted within a certain range, causing the flat surface 301 of the second gear 34 to detach from the flat surface 301 of the gear part 3111. At this time, the inclined surface 302 on the second gear 34 meshes with and the inclined surface 302 on the gear part 3111 to avoid the second gear 34 from detaching from the gear part 3111. A clever design of the inclined surface 302 on the second gear 34 and gear part 3111 ensures that the second gear 34 will not detach from the gear part 3111 when switching between closed and open states.

As shown in FIGS. 6 and 8, in one embodiment of the present application, outer circumferential surfaces of a third gear 35 and the first gear 331 are both provided with an outer tooth portion 303 and a limit circumferential surface 304 that connects the outer tooth portion 303 at a beginning and an end. The outer tooth portion 303 of the third gear 35 meshes with the outer tooth portion 303 of the first gear. A width of the outer tooth portion 303 depends on a flipping angle of the heating device 20. The larger the flipping angle of the heating device 20, the larger of a designed width of the outer tooth portion 303, and vice versa. When the outer tooth portion 303 rotates to the limit circumferential surface 304, the limit circumferential surface 304 limits the outer tooth portion 303, effectively preventing the third gear 35 from rotating with the first gear. And at this time, it indicates that the heating device 20 is flipped in place.

Embodiment 2

Based on the functional and structural settings of the marcel waver, as shown in FIGS. 9 to 10, in the second embodiment, two heating devices 20 are synchronously flipped by driving two transmission mechanisms through one of the adjustment elements 31.

In the second embodiment, two first transmission members 32 are connected by a connector 36, and the adjustment element 31 is provided on one of the first transmission members 32 or on the connector 36. The output ends of each first transmission member 32 are connected to a corresponding heating device 20. When the adjustment element 31 is located on one of the first transmission members 32 (FIG. 10), the first transmission member 32 moves under the drive of the adjustment element 31 and is linked with the other first transmission member 32. When the adjustment element 31 is installed on the connector 36 (FIG. 11), the connector 36 acts simultaneously on both first transmission members 32 and drives both first transmission members 32 to move.

In the second embodiment, when the connector 36 is fixedly connected to the two first transmission members 32, and the adjustment element 31 is operated, the two first transmission members 32 move synchronously, that is, the two first transmission members 32 drive the corresponding heating device 20 to flip synchronously.

In the second embodiment, the adjustment element 31 drives the first transmission member 32 to slide in a straight line on the arm 10, and the first transmission member 32 slides in a straight line and drives the heating device 20 to flip.

Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, in the second embodiment, the first transmission member 32 is a sliding plate 322, and the sliding plate 322 can slide back and forth on the arm 10. The two sliding plates 322 are connected near the holding end 12 through the connector 36. In this embodiment, the adjustment element 31 is a push button 312, and the push button 312 is located on an outer edge of one sliding plate 322 and exposes the shaping end of the arm. The push button 312 is pulled to drive the sliding plate 322 to slide. Since the other first transmission member 32 linked with a first transmission member 32, the two first transmission members 32 drive the two heating devices 20 to flip.

As shown in FIG. 8, one side of the slipping plate 322 is provided with a push part 3221, and the second transmission member 33 is a rotation component 332. An outer circumferential surface of the rotation component 332 is provided with a curved sliding groove 3321, two ends of the curved sliding groove 3321 are extended forward and backward and arranged in a staggered manner. The push part 3221 slides back and forth in the curved sliding groove 3321. As the curved sliding groove 3321 is in a shape of curved, when the push part 3221 slides in the curved sliding groove 3321, it will drive the rotation component 332 to rotate, and the rotation component 332 will drive the heating device 20 to rotate.

Embodiment 3

Based on the functional and structural settings of the marcel waver in Embodiment 2, the adjustment element 31 drives two transmission mechanisms to flip two heating devices 20 sequentially.

Specifically, when the connector 36 is actively connected to at least one first transmission member 32 or when there is a connection gap, there is a transmission delay between the two. When the adjustment element 31 is operated, the first transmission member 32 directly connected to the adjustment element 31 first moves, and the other first transmission member 32 moves under a transmission effect of the connector 36, that is, the two first transmission members 32 drive the corresponding heating device 20 to flip one by one.

In one embodiment of the present application, the adjustment element 31 is rotated to drive the first transmission member 32 to rotate or slide and is interlinked the second transmission member 33 and the heating device 20 to flip. Specifically, when adjustment element 31 is a knob and the first transmission member 32 is a shaft, the knob is rotated to drive the shaft to rotate (first embodiment). When adjustment element 31 is a knob with teeth, and the first transmission member 32 is a sliding plate with teeth and racks, the teeth mesh with racks, the knob is turned to drive the sliding plate with teeth to slide.

In one embodiment of the present application, the adjustment element 31 is slid to drive the first transmission member 32 to rotate or slide and is interlinked with the second transmission member 33 and the heating device 20 to flip. Specifically, when adjustment element 31 is a push button with a rack, and the first transmission member 32 is a shaft with a gear, the rack meshes with the gear mesh, the push button is pushed with a rack to drive the shaft with a gear to rotate. When adjustment element 31 is a push button and the first transmission member 32 is a sliding plate, the push button drives the sliding plate to slide (second embodiment).

In one embodiment of the present application, the adjustment element 31 drives the two transmission mechanisms to flip the heating device 20 at a same or different angles, in order to adapt to different curling effects. For example, when the transmission mechanism is a gear transmission mechanism, the tooth parameters on the two transmission mechanisms can be designed differently to achieve different flipping angles of the two heating devices 20. For example, when the transmission mechanism is driven by a motor to rotate, and the adjustment element 31 is a control screen, the different flipping angles of the two heating devices 20 can be controlled by setting the rotation angles of each motor output shaft on the two transmission mechanisms.

In addition, the transmission mechanism can also be one or a combination of a belt transmission, gear transmission, chain transmission, worm gear transmission, and screw transmission. For example, when two first transmission members are connected through a chain structure or belt structure, when the adjustment element drives one of the first transmission member to rotate, the other first transmission member rotates under a linkage of the chain structure or belt structure. For example, in a spiral transmission mechanism, when the adjustment element is a rotation component, there is a thread, and a threaded hole is provided on the connector that connects the two first transmission members. The thread on the rotation component is connected to the threaded hole. When the rotation component is rotated, the connector moves in a straight line on the rotation component and links the movement of the two first transmission members. Of course, the transmission mechanism is not limited to the above, as long as it can be applied to this device.

The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit it. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the protection scope of the present application.
