Description

  The present invention relates to a switch mechanism and a hair straightening device including the switch mechanism.

  Conventionally, as a hairdressing apparatus having a switch mechanism, for example, there is a hair dryer as shown in Patent Document 1. The hair dryer shown in Patent Document 1 is provided with a switch knob on the front surface of the grip, and is configured to switch from the first to third operation modes by sliding the switch knob upward from the off position. Yes. In the first operation mode, only the motor is driven at high speed, and cold air at normal temperature is fed. In the second operation mode, the motor and the heater unit are driven at the same time, but the motor is operated at half speed and the heater unit is operated at half heat output to supply hot air of relatively low temperature and low speed. In the third operation mode, the motor is driven at a high speed, and the heater unit is operated at the maximum heat output to supply hot air at high temperature and high speed.

  Moreover, as a hairdressing apparatus, there exists an eyelash shaping tool for eyelashes as shown to patent document 2, 3, for example. The eyelash former shown in Patent Document 2 is provided with a spiral brush and a heating element wound in a spiral in parallel with the inside of the brush on the tip side of a main body having a handle. The eyelash forming tool shown in Patent Document 3 has a shaping head at one end of a body case that also serves as a grip, and a heater for heating the eyelashes is arranged on the shaping head. The first shaping surface and the second shaping surface for shaping the eyelashes are arranged opposite to each other on the peripheral surface of the shaping head, and comb teeth for combing the eyelashes are provided on each of the shaping surfaces.

  By the way, in what is shown in patent document 1, the turning operation of turning operation | movement and the turning operation of heating operation are collectively performed by sliding operation so that one switch knob may be located in a predetermined slide position. Therefore, when operating in the first operation mode or the second operation mode, an operation to stop the switch knob in the middle of the operation range (slide range) is performed, and the operation to the first operation mode or the second operation mode is performed. It is difficult to do.

  In addition, the conventional eyelash forming tools such as Patent Documents 2 and 3 lashes the eyelashes with a brush or a shaping head, heats the eyelashes with the heat of a heater or a heating element, and further holds the eyelash shaping tool in this state. It is shaped by bending the eyelashes by moving the hand (wrist).

  Therefore, these conventional eyelash forming tools are shaped to a desired shape by moving the wrist, that is, shaped to a desired shape by the user's technique and operation, and the working efficiency at the time of shaping is not so high. . Since the shaping head and the brush (heating element) are shaped in contact with the eyelashes, the temperature of this part tends to decrease, the amount of heat supplied to the eyelashes is insufficient, and the bent shape is held. There is a risk that it becomes difficult to shape the eyelashes (decrease in forming power) due to difficulty.

  Therefore, for example, when the part of the heating unit that contacts the eyelashes is rotated to suppress the contact of only the same part and the shortage of heat is solved, the operation member for heating operation of the heater and the rotation operation of the heater And an operation member for turning on and off. When both the heating operation and the rotation operation are used at the same time, both operation members are entered and operated. Therefore, after the operation of entering one of the operation members, move the finger to the position of the remaining operation member to enter this operation member, enter the other operation member with the other hand, or change the holding method. In other words, the remaining operation members are operated, so that it is difficult to operate and the work efficiency is easily lowered. Furthermore, since the two operation members are operated, the eyelashes are shaped in an incorrect operation state such as a state in which the operation for entering the heating operation is forgotten and only the rotation operation is entered, and the eyelashes can be shaped normally. Therefore, there is a risk of lowering work efficiency.

  Therefore, in view of this situation, an object of the present invention is to provide a switch mechanism portion that facilitates on / off operations, and a hair straightening device that has improved work efficiency when hair is trimmed by the switch mechanism portion.

  In order to solve the above-described problems, a switch mechanism according to the present invention includes a slide switch having a slidable operation member, and the operation member is slid toward one end in the slide direction. A seesaw mechanism that operates in an orthogonal direction, a first contact that switches between energization and shut-off by sliding movement of the operation member, and a second contact that energizes when the operation member is tilted by the seesaw mechanism It is characterized by having.

  As the switch mechanism, the operation member has a slide piece that is slidable in the sliding direction, and the slide piece is provided with a tilting operation piece that is tilted by the seesaw mechanism, and the slide piece is opposite to the one end. It is preferable to further include a regulating member that regulates the tilting of the tilting operation piece in a state where the tilting operation piece is slid.

  And the hair straightening device of the present invention comprises a main body having a gripping part, a barber part having a heating part, and a driving part for outputting rotational driving to the barber part, and the main body includes the heating part. An operation unit that performs an on / off operation of a heating operation and an on / off operation of a rotation operation of the drive unit, the operation unit includes the switch mechanism described above, and the operation member is slid to the one end. One of the heating operation or the rotation operation is an entry operation, and the other one of the heating operation or the rotation operation is an entry operation by tilting by the seesaw mechanism.

  In this hair straightening device, the heating unit is rod-shaped, the drive unit outputs a rotational drive to the heating unit to rotate the heating unit around an axis, and the operation member is slid to the one end. It is preferable that the heating operation becomes an entering operation, and the rotation operation becomes an entering operation by tilting by the seesaw mechanism.

  By adopting such a configuration, it is possible to easily perform an on / off operation, and it is possible to easily improve work efficiency when hair is adjusted by the switch mechanism unit.

  By the way, the hairdressing apparatus of this embodiment becomes a structure which performs two operation | movement, the heating operation | movement by the heating part 4, and the rotation operation | movement of the heating part 4 by the drive part 3 as above-mentioned. Therefore, the operation unit 6 can operate both on and off of the heating operation and the rotation operation. The configuration of the operation unit 6 will be specifically described below. For convenience of explanation, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 10, with respect to the terminal block 23, in the thickness direction Y, the operation unit 6 side is upward, and the circuit board 22 (not shown in the drawing) side is downward. To do.

  The operation unit 6 includes a first contact part (details will be described later) that switches between energization and interruption by sliding movement of the operation member 61 (details will be described later), and a second contact part (details that will be described later). Is constituted by a switch mechanism having Specifically, as shown in FIG. 7 to FIG. 11, the slide switch 7 for turning on and off the heating operation of the heating unit 4 by sliding in the axial direction Ax operates in a direction intersecting the axial direction Ax. And a seesaw switch 8 for turning on and off the drive operation of the drive unit 3.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the slide switch 7 has a switch base 71 and a slide handle 72. As shown in FIG. 7, the switch base 71 is slidable along the axial direction Ax and is supported by the housing 11. The switch base 21d is attached to the lower side, and the slide handle 72 is attached to the upper side. is there. Therefore, the switch base 71 slides integrally with the switch fitting 21d and the slide handle 72, and the slide direction of the slide switch 7 is the axial direction Ax as shown in FIG.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 9, the switch base 71 is opposite to the first end in the sliding direction (axial direction Ax) and the first end in the sliding direction (axial direction Ax), as shown in FIGS. The position is switched to the other end (second end). When the switch base 71 is positioned at the first end, the switch bracket 21d is electrically connected to the anode bracket 21b and the circuit board 22 to be energized, and when the switch base 71 is positioned at the second end, the anode bracket The electrical connection with 21b and the 2nd electricity supply metal fitting 21c is released, and it will be in the interruption | blocking state. When the energized state is established, power is supplied to the heating unit 4 (heater wire 41), and the heating operation of the heating unit 4 is started. When the energized state is established, power is supplied to the heating unit 4 (heater wire 41). Stops and the heating operation is stopped. In other words, the anode fitting 21b, the switch fitting 21d, and the second energizing fitting 21c serve as a first contact portion where the energization and the interruption are switched by the sliding movement of the switch base 71.

  The slide handle 72 has an arcuate plate shape (see FIG. 2) that is substantially concentric with the main body 1. As shown in FIG. 8, the slide handle 72 is provided so as to be exposed on the outer shell of the main body 1, and becomes a slide piece 61 a for slide operation that is slid along the axial direction Ax by the user. Yes. Therefore, the slide handle 72 is operated to enter a heating operation when the switch base 71 is operated to the first end position, and is operated to the second end position to operate the cutting operation of the heating operation. Become.

  Further, the slide handle 72 has a concave portion 73 (see FIG. 2) recessed downward in the approximate center of the dimension in the axial direction Ax, and the seesaw switch 8 is provided in the concave portion 73. As shown in FIG. 2, the seesaw switch 8 includes a decorative panel 86 and a seesaw mechanism that tilts the decorative panel 86. The seesaw mechanism includes a seesaw member 81, a pair of seesaw springs 84, and a pair of seesaw springs 84. And a sunk switch 85. As shown in FIG. 7, the seesaw switch 8 includes a seesaw member 81, a decorative panel 86, and a switch spring (not shown in FIG. 7) disposed in the recess 73. These constituent members are integrated with the slide handle 72. Slide in.

  The seesaw member 81 has a rectangular shape elongated in the width direction X (see FIG. 10), and is supported by the slide handle 72 at a substantially central portion of the dimension in the width direction X. The seesaw member 81 is operable with respect to the slide handle 72 in a direction (thickness direction Y) orthogonal to the axial direction Ax (slide direction), and is supported by the slide handle 72 in the operation. The made part becomes a fulcrum.

  Therefore, the seesaw member 81 slides integrally with the slide handle 72 as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, and tilts with respect to the slide handle 72 with the above-mentioned part as a fulcrum as shown in FIGS. (Take a tilted posture). The seesaw member 81 is provided with a pair of seesaw springs 84 between the bottom of the recess 73 of the slide handle 72. One seesaw spring 84 is disposed at each of both end portions in the width direction X of the seesaw member 81, and the seesaw spring 84 biases the seesaw member 81 upward to tilt the seesaw member 81. Not hold in a generally horizontal posture. Hereinafter, the state of the substantially horizontal posture is referred to as a standard state, and the tilted state is referred to as a tilted state.

  As shown in FIG. 10, the seesaw member 81 has a protrusion 82 that protrudes downward from the slide handle 72 at a lower portion. The protrusions 82 are provided at both ends of the seesaw member 81 in the width direction X, respectively. When the slide handle 72 is positioned at the second end, the protrusion 82 is positioned to overlap the upper surface of the terminal base 23 in the thickness direction Y with a predetermined interval, and the seesaw member 81 has the protrusion 82 on the terminal base 23. Interference interferes with operation.

  In other words, the terminal block 23 is a regulating member that regulates the tilting of the seesaw member 81 in a state where the slide handle 72 is slid to the second end. Therefore, the seesaw member 81 cannot be tilted in the state of being positioned at the second end.

  When positioned at the first end, the protrusions 82 are positioned so as to overlap with the through holes 24 provided in the terminal block 23 in the thickness direction Y, and the seesaw member 81 inserts the protrusions 82 into the through holes 24. It is possible to tilt.

  The through holes 24 are provided in the terminal block 23 so as to penetrate along the thickness direction Y, and two through holes 24 are arranged in the width direction X. The through hole 24 has an inclined surface 24 a at the edge of the second end of the edge of the opening on the upper side, and the inclined surface 24 a is inclined downward toward the through hole 24. . Therefore, when the slide handle 72 is slid to the second end side with the protrusion 82 inserted into the through-hole 24, the inserted protrusion 82 is guided to contact the inclined surface 24a and move upward. Then, the seesaw member 81 returns to the standard state by the biasing force of the seesaw spring 84 as the protrusion 82 is guided by the inclined surface 24 a and moves upward.

  In addition, a projecting / recessing switch 85 is disposed in each of the through holes 24, and the projecting / recessing switch 85 is attached to the circuit board 22 as shown in FIG. When the seesaw member 81 is tilted, the protrusion switch 85 is inserted into the circuit board 22 side by the protrusion 82 moved downward. Then, the protrusion / subtraction switch 85 is immersed to electrically connect the circuit board 22 and the driving unit 3 (the driving conductor 25b) to feed power from the circuit unit 2 to the driving unit 3. Drive. In other words, the protrusion / retraction switch 85 is a second contact portion that is energized by the tilting of the seesaw member 81.

  Furthermore, the polarity of the electric power supplied from the circuit unit 2 to the motor 31 is switched depending on which of the two is immersed, and the motor 31 rotates in the direction of rotation depending on the immersed switch 85 that has been immersed. The direction of is switched.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 10, the seesaw member 81 further includes a locking portion 83 that protrudes downward in the approximate center of the dimension in the width direction X. The locking portion 83 is caught on the switch base 71 when the seesaw member 81 is tilted, and is held in a tilted position against the biasing force of the seesaw spring 84. And the latching | locking part 83 operates the edge part on the side moved upward by the tilting of the seesaw member 81 in the tilted state, or the projecting part 82 in the through hole 24 is brought into contact with the tilted surface 24a. It is configured to unlock.

  Further, a seesaw member 81 has a decorative panel 86 fixed on the upper side. The decorative panel 86 covers the outer surface of the seesaw member 81 and is exposed to the outer shell of the main body 1 as shown in FIG. Specifically, the decorative panel 86 has a rectangular shape that is long in the width direction X, and has an arc-shaped upper surface that covers the top of the recess 73 as shown in FIGS. It protrudes upward from the upper surface (outer surface). Then, as shown in FIGS. 12 and 11, the decorative panel 86 is configured to tilt with the seesaw member 81 by pressing one end in the width direction X downward.

  Therefore, the decorative panel 86 is a tilting operation piece 61b for tilting that is operated by the seesaw mechanism. As shown in FIG. 11, the tilting operation piece 61b (decoration panel 86) for tilting is operated by pushing one end portion in the width direction X of the decoration panel 86 to be in a tilted state. In operation, power is supplied from the battery 13 to the motor 31. Then, the tilting operation piece 61b (decoration panel 86) is in the tilted state (for example, see FIG. 12), the end on the opposite side in the width direction X that has moved upward with tilting (the end on the side not being pushed) Part) is returned to the standard state and the drive operation is turned off.

  Further, the tilting operation piece 61b selects whether to rotate the motor 31 in the normal rotation direction or the reverse rotation direction when the driving operation is entered depending on which end portion in the width direction X is pushed. It is possible.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the operation member 61 has the slide handle 72 that is slidable with respect to the main body 1, and the slide handle 72 is tilted with respect to the slide handle 72 by the seesaw mechanism. 86 is provided.

  The operation member 61 is slidable in the axial direction Ax with respect to the main body 1, and the heating unit 4 is turned on and off by this sliding operation (sliding operation). Further, the operation member 61 can be operated to be tiltable in the thickness direction Y (can be tilted freely) with respect to the main body 1 at a predetermined slide position (first end in the present embodiment) where the heating operation is entered. It has become. And by this tilting, the drive unit 3 is turned on and off in the drive operation (rotation operation), and at the time of entry, the forward / reverse selection of the rotation direction in the drive is made.

  That is, the hairstyling device of the present embodiment is capable of entering the rotational operation of the drive unit 3 (heating unit 4) in a state where the heating operation is entered. In other words, the entering operation of the heating operation also serves as a starting operation of the hairstyling device, and further serves as a releasing operation for releasing the restriction of the entering operation of the rotating operation.

  Therefore, it becomes easy to suppress forgetting to enter the heating operation, and to suppress the use of the hairdressing device in the wrong operating state in which the hair cannot be heated, such as the state in which the entering operation of the heating operation is forgotten and only the rotating operation is entered. It is possible to easily improve the working efficiency when adjusting hair. And since the operation of entering the heating operation also serves as the start-up operation, it can be used even in the state where only the heating operation is entered and the rotation operation is not performed, and individual differences such as user preference and technology, hair growth etc. Accordingly, it is possible to select and use the presence or absence of the rotation operation.

  Furthermore, since the rotation direction of the heating unit 4 (drive unit 3) can be switched between forward and reverse directions, for example, with respect to eyelashes that exist in a pair of left and right eyes on a normal face, the rotation direction is switched between the right side and the left side. Thus, it is possible to easily shape the paired eyelashes into the shape of the left and right objects. Thus, by making the rotation direction selectable, the eyelashes can be easily shaped (easy to trim), and the convenience of the hairdressing apparatus can be easily improved.

  Further, by arranging the decorative panel 86 for rotating operation on the slide handle 72 for heating operation, the rotating operation can be operated without changing the position with the finger that has operated the heating operation. Therefore, the operation unit 6 can be easily operated, and the convenience of the hair straightening device can be easily improved.

  Furthermore, by providing the inclined surface 24a on the edge on the second end side of the through hole 24, both the rotation operation and the heating operation can be performed by performing the heating operation cutting operation in the turning operation entering operation state. Can be cut off. Therefore, it is possible to perform the cutting operation of the two operations with one operation (sliding operation to the second end), it is possible to make it difficult to forget to cut the rotation operation, and it is easy to improve the convenience of the hairdressing device. can do. Further, by providing the seesaw spring 84, the tilting operation piece 61b can be easily returned to the standard state when the protrusion 82 and the inclined surface 24a are in contact with each other.

  The present invention is not limited only to the configuration of each embodiment, and within the scope intended by the present invention, appropriate design changes can be made in each embodiment, and the configuration of each embodiment can be changed as appropriate. It is possible to apply in combination. For example, the slide handle 72 is provided so as to be slidable with respect to the main body 1 and tiltable with respect to the main body 1 in a direction orthogonal to the sliding direction, and the slide handle 72 also serves as a tilting operation piece 61b for tilting. May be. Moreover, both the heating part 4 and the comb 5 may rotate.
