HEATED HAIR BRUSH - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18275290 titled 'HEATED HAIR BRUSH

The abstract describes a heated hair brush with heated protrusions, non-heated protrusions, a control unit for temperature control, and a mechanism for controlling the position of the non-heated protrusions relative to the heated protrusions.

  • The heated hair brush has two modes: in the first mode, the non-heated protrusions extend beyond the heated protrusions and the temperature exceeds 100°C, while in the second mode, the non-heated protrusions do not extend beyond the heated protrusions and the temperature does not exceed 50°C.
  • The heated protrusions are connected to a first carrier, and the non-heated protrusions are connected to a second carrier. The distance between the carriers is modifiable, with a smaller distance in the first mode than in the second mode.
  • The second carrier is laterally moveable with regard to the first carrier, allowing the non-heated protrusions to be parallel to or at an angle to the heated protrusions in the first and second modes, respectively.

Potential Applications: - Hair styling tools - Beauty salons - Personal grooming devices

Problems Solved: - Efficient hair styling with adjustable temperature and protrusion positions - Versatile tool for different hair types and styles

Benefits: - Customizable hair styling experience - Enhanced control over temperature and protrusion positions - Versatility in achieving various hair styles

Commercial Applications: - Beauty industry for professional and personal use - Hair care product manufacturers - Retail market for consumer hair styling tools

Prior Art: Prior art related to this technology may include patents or publications on heated hair styling tools with adjustable features and temperature control mechanisms.

Frequently Updated Research: Research on materials for the protrusions, heat distribution technology, and ergonomic design for improved user experience may be relevant to this technology.

Questions about Heated Hair Brush: 1. How does the mechanism for controlling the position of the non-heated protrusions work? 2. What are the potential safety considerations when using a heated hair brush with adjustable temperature settings?


Original Abstract Submitted

A heated hair brush (B) comprises heated protrusions (HP): non-heated protrusions (NHP); a control unit (C) arranged for controlling a temperature of the heated protrusions (HP); and a mechanism (FC. SC) arranged for controlling a position of the non- heated protrusions (NHP) relative to a position of the heated protrusions (HP). In a first mode (I). the non-heated protrusions (NHP) extend beyond the heated protrusions (HP), and the temperature of the heated protrusions (HP) exceeds 100° C. In a second mode (II). the non-heated protrusions (NHP) do not extend beyond the heated protrusions (HP), and the temperature of the heated protrusions (HP) does not exceed 50° C. The heated protrusions (HP) may be connected to a first carrier (FC), and the non-heated protrusions (NHP) may be connected to a second carrier (SC). In one embodiment, a distance (d) between the first and second carriers is modifiable. wherein in the first mode (I), the distance (d) is smaller than in the second mode (II). In another embodiment. the second carrier (SC) is laterally moveable with regard to the first carrier (FC), whereby in the first mode (I), the non-heated protrusions (NHP) are parallel to the heated protrusions (HP) whereby the non-heated protrusions (NHP) extend beyond the heated protrusions (HP), while in the second mode (II). the non-heated protrusions (NHP) are at an angle to the heated protrusions (HP) whereby the non-heated protrusions (NHP) do not extend beyond the heated protrusions (HP).
