The commutation sliding block is connected to the transmission assembly. The transmission assembly is connected to the control button through engagement of transmission teeth. The curling toggle has one end that is connected to the transmission assembly through engagement of transmission teeth, so as to rotate under the control of the control button.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A hair curler with a button for manual control of forward and reverse rotation, comprising:
 a host machine housing;   a heating passage, which has one end that is mounted and arranged at one end of the host machine housing;   a manual rotating mechanism, which comprises a control button, a commutation sliding block, and a transmission assembly, wherein the control button and the commutation sliding block are arranged on the host machine housing, respectively; the transmission assembly is arranged in the host machine housing; the commutation sliding block is connected to the transmission assembly; the transmission assembly is connected to the control button through engagement of transmission teeth; and   a curling toggle, which is mounted and arranged on an outer side of the heating passage, and has one end that is connected to the transmission assembly through engagement of transmission teeth, so as to rotate under the control of the control button, wherein the commutation sliding block is used for performing commutation control on the direction of rotation of the transmission assembly, so as to perform commutation control on the direction of rotation of the curling toggle.   
     
     
         2 . The hair curler according to  claim 1 , wherein the control button comprises:
 a button main housing; and   a transmission plate, which is connected to the button main housing, wherein the button main housing or the transmission plate is rotatably connected to the host machine housing; external transmission teeth are arranged at a contact point between the transmission plate and the transmission assembly; the external transmission teeth are used for driving the transmission assembly to rotate under the action of the button main housing.   
     
     
         3 . The hair curler according to  claim 1 , wherein the transmission assembly comprises:
 a forward and reverse rotation commutation gear set, which is connected to the commutation sliding block, and used for commutation in response to pression-driven rotation of the control button, so as to convert the pression-driven rotation of the control button into rotation that can drive the curling toggle to rotate on an upper surface of the heating passage, wherein the forward and reverse rotation commutation gear set is further used for commutation of the direction of rotation of the curling toggle under the control of the commutation sliding block.   
     
     
         4 . The hair curler according to  claim 3 , wherein the forward and reverse rotation commutation gear set comprises:
 a disc commutation rotating gear, which is used for rotating under the drive of the control button;   a rotating gear rod, wherein commutation transmission teeth are arranged on an upper surface of the disc commutation rotating gear; the commutation transmission teeth on one side of the disc commutation rotating gear engage with the rotating gear rod, so as to drive the curling toggle to rotate in a first rotation direction through the rotating gear rod; the rotating gear rod is further used for moving under the control of the commutation sliding block and making the commutation transmission teeth on the other side of the disc commutation rotating gear engage with the rotating gear rod, so as to drive the curling toggle to rotate in a second rotation direction through the rotating gear rod; the second rotation direction is opposite to the first rotation direction.   
     
     
         5 . The hair curler according to  claim 4 , wherein the forward and reverse rotation commutation gear set further comprises:
 a rotating connector, which is a hollow structure, wherein a transmission head is arranged at one end of the rotating gear rod, which end is proximal to the curling toggle; the rotating connector is telescopically arranged in the hollow structure of the rotating connector, so as to drive the curling toggle to rotate through the rotating connector.   
     
     
         6 . The hair curler according to  claim 5 , wherein the manual rotating mechanism further comprises:
 a rotating mechanism housing, wherein the transmission assembly is mounted and arranged inside the rotating mechanism housing; a gear rod rotating shaft is further arranged at the other end of the rotating gear rod, and rotatably arranged at a position on a tail portion of the rotating mechanism housing.   
     
     
         7 . The hair curler according to  claim 6 , wherein the manual rotating mechanism further comprises:
 a button reset spring, wherein the control button is further provided with a rotating shaft through-hole, through which the control button is rotatably connected to the rotating mechanism housing; the control button is further provided with a button reset shaft; the button reset spring has one end that is fixedly connected to the rotating mechanism housing, and the other end that is connected to the button reset shaft; the button reset spring is used for provide a reset force for the control button.   
     
     
         8 . The hair curler according to  claim 4 , wherein the transmission assembly further comprises an acceleration gear set, through which the control button is connected to the forward and reverse rotation commutation gear set, so as to perform rotation acceleration control on the forward and reverse rotation commutation gear set, the acceleration gear set comprises:
 a first rotating gear, which is in teeth-engaging connection with the control button to rotate under the control of the control button;   a second rotating gear, which is arranged to be coaxial with the first rotating gear, wherein the first rotating gear is used for driving the second rotating gear to rotate unidirectionally and synchronously; and   a variable-speed rotating gear, which is in teeth-engaging connection with the second rotating gear, wherein the second rotating gear has more teeth than the variable-speed rotating gear ; the variable-speed rotating gear is subjected to accelerated rotation under the drive of the second rotating gear; the variable-speed rotating gear is connected to the disc commutation rotating gear, so as to drive the disc commutation rotating gear to rotate synchronously.   
     
     
         9 . The hair curler according to  claim 4 , wherein the commutation sliding block is provided with a Y-shaped commutation head, which is respectively connected to both ends of the rotating gear rod, and used for driving mobile commutation of the rotating gear rod;
 a first commutation positioning hole and a second commutation positioning hole are arranged on a bottom portion of the commutation sliding block, respectively; the host machine housing comprises an upper housing and a lower housing; a spring positioning column is further arranged at a place of the lower housing, which place is opposite to the first commutation positioning hole or the second commutation positioning hole; the spring positioning column is used for positioning and fixing the mobile commutation of the commutation sliding block.
