Electric hair straightening iron equipped with a generator producing anion and ozone

Abstract

An electric iron for straightening ladies hair, capable of producing anion and ozone, has an electron generator embedded on one of the handle of ceramic plate heating electric iron. Electrons generated from the inside of the ion generator meet air at the end of two different cathode lines, which are ended with sharp carbon steel needle, and generate anions and ozone. Pluralities of small holes developed along the heater cases enables even distribution of the anions along the heating blades. The ion generator of the current application is so powerful that the concentration of anions in the air is about 1,000,000 each/cubic centimeters even when measured 15 cm apart from the heating blades. Such long range distribution enables pretreatment of the user's hair with anion and ozone before the heating blades touch them.

1 . An electric iron, emitting about one million anions when measured at 15 cm apart from thereof, that is comprised of 1) two handles pivotally connected by a hinge, which is installed close to one end of the handles, 2) two heating blades, each of which is comprised of; a) a ceramic spacer, b) two Ni-chrome heating plates surrounding the ceramic spacer, c) two composite insulators surrounding the two Ni-chrome plates, and d) an aluminum oxide heating plate cover, developed at the other ends of the handles, 3) a spring in the spring holder retaining the handles open when not in use, 4) an on/off switch located on one end of the upper handle and connected to 120/220V multi-power code, 5) a heating blade temperature controller located on one end of the upper handle and connected to 120/220V multi-power code, 6) an electron generator embedded in the lower handle and connected to an electric circuit embedded in the upper handle to constitute an ac/dc converter, 7) two cathode lines, which have different electric resistance, connected to a cathode plate of the electron generator, 8) two carbon steel pins which are developed on the end of each cathode line separately, 9) a light indicating operation of the electron generator and 10) pluralities of holes, for guiding anion and ozone produced at the end of the carbon steel pin to the hair of a user, which are developed along the side part of lower and upper handle behind the heating blades.
