HAIR DRYER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18225431 titled 'HAIR DRYER
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a hair dryer with a unique nozzle design that allows for the discharge of air in different directions.
- Main body with a fan generating airflow
- Nozzle connected to the main body for airflow direction
- Nozzle body with inner space and partition wall dividing into two passages
- First nozzle holes for air discharge in a first direction
- Second nozzle holes for air discharge in a different direction
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in hair dryers, industrial drying systems, and cooling devices where directional airflow is required.
Problems Solved
This innovation solves the issue of limited control over airflow direction in traditional hair dryers, providing more efficient and targeted drying.
Benefits
- Improved drying efficiency - Targeted airflow for styling purposes - Enhanced user experience with customizable airflow direction
Potential Commercial Applications
"Directional Airflow Technology in Hair Dryers: Enhancing Drying Efficiency and Styling Control"
Possible Prior Art
There may be prior art related to nozzle designs in hair dryers or other airflow devices, but specific examples are not provided in the abstract.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology impact energy consumption in comparison to traditional hair dryers?
The article does not mention any details regarding the energy efficiency of this technology compared to conventional hair dryers. It would be interesting to know if the directional airflow design has any impact on energy consumption.
Are there any limitations to the range of directions in which the airflow can be discharged using this technology?
The abstract does not specify the extent to which the airflow direction can be adjusted using this technology. Understanding the limitations of the nozzle design in terms of directional control would provide a more comprehensive view of its capabilities.
Original Abstract Submitted
A hair dryer including a main body; a fan inside the main body to generate a flow of air; and a nozzle connected to the main body so that the air flows into the nozzle. The nozzle includes a nozzle body having an inner space, a nozzle partition wall inside the nozzle body dividing the inner space into first and second nozzle passages, a plurality of first nozzle holes formed in the nozzle body to communicate with the first nozzle passage, and a plurality of second nozzle holes formed in the nozzle body to communicate with the second nozzle passage. The nozzle is configured so that air flowing into the first nozzle passage is discharged through the first nozzle holes in a first direction, and air flowing into the second nozzle passage is discharged through the second nozzle holes in a second direction that is different from the first direction.
