WIRELESS NEGATIVE ION HAIR CARE CAP
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
[0001] This invention relates to a wireless negative ion hair care cap, and
particularly to a
wireless negative ion hair care cap which is put around a human head and used
in
combination with conditioner, hair rollers, and other elements for providing
multiple
functions of blow drying, hair caring, hair styling, hair fixing, and the
like.
2. Descriotion of Related Art
[0002] A hair dryer is usually used for drying hair after hair wash to keep
the user from
catching a cold or getting chronic headache. When drying hair, one usually has
to flip one's
hair with one hand and in the meantime hold a hair dryer over one's hair with
the other hand.
The hair dryer has to be constantly moved to dry the hair evenly. This
conventional way of
drying hair has the disadvantage of causing hand aches and is a waste of
energy resources
because it's difficult to evenly distribute hot air all over the user's head.
Further, though
females tend to be very much concerned about hair care and hair styling, they
cannot afford to
buy professional blow drying machines due to limited space at home and
budgets. Therefore,
females frequent hair saloons for hair care and hair styling, which is costly
and
time-consuming.
[0003] It is well-known that human hair contains positive electricity. A
negative ion hair
dryer may generate negative ion to neutralize positrons and create a
protection layer on the
hair surface to lock about 10% of hair moisture content. When a negative ion
hair dryer is
used, negative ions with moisture content are attached to the hair and
permeate into the hair,
neutralizing the positive electricity on the hair in the meantime. This way of
hair drying may
keep a high moisture ratio in the hair, making the hair supple, shiny,
moisturized and easy to
fix. A conventional negative ion hair dryer, however, has a disadvantage of
being unable to
focus negative ions and therefore may achieve only limited efficacy. In view
of this, after
laborious research and experiments, the applicant has devised a wireless
negative ion hair care

cap which is put around a human head and used in combination with conditioner,
hair rollers,
and other elements for providing multiple functions of blow drying, hair
caring, hair styling,
hair fixing, and the like.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0014] Please refer both to Figure 1 and Figure 2, along with Figure 3 and
Figure 4,
illustrating respectively a three-dimensional exploded view, two three-
dimensional views, and
a structural drawing of this invention. As the figures show, this invention
comprises an air
permeable pliable cover body I shaped roughly like a cap, at an opening
thereof is disposed
an elastic band 11 for the wireless negative ion hair care cap to fit tightly
around a human
head. At a rear on an outer periphery of the pliable cover body I is disposed
at least a holding
12 which is shaped like a pouch and has a lift-able cover body for placing a
battery 2 therein
(a chargeable battery that may be taken out of the holding 12 to be charged by
a charger).
[0015] On an inner periphery of the cover body I are disposed a plurality of
electric
heating elements 3 and at least a negative ion generator 4. In the present
embodiment, the
electric heating elements 3 are disposed surrounding an interlayer of the
cover body 1. The
negative ion generator 4 is disposed at a rear on an inner periphery of the
cover body 1. In the
present embodiment, the electric heating elements 3 are thermostatic ceramic
electric heating
sheets.
[0016] At a front on an outer periphery of the cover body 1 is disposed a
controller 5,
thereon are disposed a control electric circuit, a display 51 (LED or LCD),
and a plurality of
setup keys 52. The control electric circuit is connected to the foregoing
battery 2, the electric
heating elements 3, and the negative ion generator 4 for controlling and
setting the operation
time and temperature of the electric heating elements 3 and the negative ion
generator 4,
which are shown on the display 51.

[0017] Inside an inner periphery of the cover body 1 is attached (with a
Velcro band) a
detachable mesh inner cover 6, which may be easily detached for washing.
[0018] The foregoing components are combined to form a wireless negative ion
hair care
cap. When this invention is in use, the pliable cover body 1 of the hair care
cap is put around a
human head. The controller 5 is used to set up a time and temperature (ranging
from 20 to 45
minutes and 37 to 45 degree Celsius). The control circuit of the controller 5
controls the
electric heating elements 3 to generate heat and controls the negative ion
generator 4 to
generate negative ions. The generated heat and negative ions are released in
an inside of the
pliable cover body 1 and are evenly distributed therein to apply heat to the
hair on the human
head. Used in combination with conditioner, hair rollers, and other elements
this invention
provides multiple functions of blow drying, hair caring, hair styling, hair
fixing, and the like
and creates a protection layer on the hair surface. As this invention is
wireless, the user may
move about freely during hair care and may therefore go about their daily
business or do
house chores in the meantime. For carrying or storing this invention, one may
easily fold the
pliable cover body 1.
[0019] After each use or after some repeated use of this invention, the mesh
inner cover 6
attached inside the pliable cover body 1 may be detached for washing to
maintain good
personal hygiene.
[0020] Please refer to Figure 5, illustrating a drawing of this invention in
use. Please also
refer to Figure 3. As the figures show, when this invention is being used, the
pliable cover
body 1 is put around a human head. The elastic band 11 disposed at an opening
of the pliable
cover body 1 allows the opening to be stretched, which makes it easy to put
this invention
around a human head and to keep all the hair inside the pliable cover body 1.
When this
invention is in place, the tightening characteristic of the elastic band 11
may fit the pliable
cover body 1 tightly around the human head.
[0021] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2. After the pliable cover body 1
is put around a
human head, the controller 5 is used to set up a time and temperature, which
are shown on the
display 51. The controller 5 is used to control the electric heating elements
3 and negative ion
generator 4 for generating heat and negative ions. The generated heat and
negative ions are
4
CA 3070537 2020-01-31
released in an inside of the pliable cover body 1 and are evenly distributed
therein to apply
heat to the hair on the human head. Used in combination with conditioner, hair
rollers, and
other elements this invention provides multiple functions of blow drying, hair
caring, hair
styling, hair fixing, and the like and creates a protection layer on the hair
surface. As this
invention is wireless, the user may move about freely during hair care and may
therefore go
about their daily business or do house chores in the meantime. When the preset
time is over,
the control electric circuit of the controller 5 will automatically terminate
the operation of the
electric heating elements 3 and negative ion generator 4. Whenever the user
desires to
terminate the operation (for example when the user finds this invention
overheated, or when
the user is not feeling well, or when some other unexpected situation has
occurred), the setup
keys 52 on the controller 5 may be used to instantly terminate the operation.
After use, the
pliable cover body 1 is taken off the human head and may be folded for
carrying or storing.
[0022] The foregoing preferred embodiment of the present invention is
illustrated of the
present invention rather than limiting of the present invention. It is
intended to cover various
modifications and changes included within the spirit and scope of the appended
claims, the
scope of which should be accorded the broadest interpretation so as to
encompass all such
modifications and similar structures.
[0023] In view of the foregoing, this invention relates to a wireless negative
ion hair care
cap comprising a cover body made of a pliable material, with a battery,
electric heating
elements, and a negative ion generator disposed thereon, as well as a
controller for controlling
the electric heating elements and negative ion generator. This invention may
be put around a
human head and used in combination with conditioner, hair rollers, and other
elements for
providing multiple functions of blow drying, hair caring, hair styling, hair
fixing, and the like.
