Patent number: 9596916Abstract: Disclosed is a hair care appliance comprising a body, a fluid flow path extending through the body from an inlet through which a fluid flow enters the appliance to an outlet for emitting the fluid flow from a front end of the body, and an attachment for adjusting at least one parameter of fluid emitted from the appliance, the attachment comprising an upstream end for attaching to the appliance, wherein one or both of the front end of the body and the upstream end of the attachment comprises at least one magnet. The front end may comprise an end wall extending radially inwards of the body and comprising the at least one magnet or a plurality of magnets radially spaced about the end wall or a ring of magnetic material extending around the end wall. The upstream end may comprise a plurality of magnets radially spaced about an end face.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 2014Date of Patent: March 21, 2017Assignee: Dyson Technologies LimitedInventors: Patrick Joseph William Moloney, Thomas James Dunning Follows, Stephen Benjamin Courtney, Henry Licming Lambourn, Peter David Gammack, Catriona Ann Crawley Sutter, Philip Jonathan Stephens

Publication number: 20150342407Abstract: A domestic blender includes a receptacle and a tool. The receptacle has a bottom wall, a side wall defining an opening through which foodstuff material is introduced to the receptacle, and a longitudinal axis about which the side wall is disposed. A part of the side wall which is connected to the bottom wall has a cross-section in a plane which is orthogonal to the longitudinal axis, the cross-section having a shape in the form of at least part of a convex closed curve or a convex polygon with a non-unitary aspect ratio, such as an ellipse. The tool has a shaft and a processing member for engaging foodstuff material, the processing member being disposed on the shaft such that the processing member is located within the receptacle. The tool is rotatable about a rotational axis which is inclined relative to the longitudinal axis of the receptacle.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2015Publication date: December 3, 2015Applicant: Dyson Technology LimitedInventors: Henry Licming LAMBOURN, Stephen Benjamin COURTNEY, Jonathan Stephen MARCHBANK

Publication number: 20150342405Abstract: A domestic blender includes a receptacle and a tool located within the receptacle. The receptacle has a bottom wall, a side wall defining an opening through which foodstuff material is introduced to the receptacle, and a longitudinal axis about which the side wall extends. A wall surface of the bottom wall includes a curved segment having a shape with a vertex which is spaced from the longitudinal axis of the receptacle. The tool includes a processing member located adjacent to the curved segment of the wall surface. The tool is rotatable about a rotational axis which passes through the vertex and is inclined relative to the longitudinal axis of the receptacle.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2015Publication date: December 3, 2015Applicant: Dyson Technology LimitedInventors: Henry Licming LAMBOURN, Stephen Benjamin COURTNEY, Jonathan Stephen MARCHBANK

Publication number: 20150342408Abstract: A domestic blender includes a receptacle, a tool located within the receptacle, and a base upon which the receptacle is detachably mounted. The receptacle has a bottom wall, a side wall defining an opening through which foodstuff material is introduced to the receptacle, and a longitudinal axis about which the side wall is disposed. The tool has a shaft which passes through an aperture located in the bottom wall of the receptacle, and a processing member for engaging foodstuff material. The base has a motor for rotating the tool about a rotational axis. The motor has an output shaft which is collinear with the rotational axis of the tool, which is inclined to the longitudinal axis of the receptacle by an angle in the range from 15 to 75°.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2015Publication date: December 3, 2015Applicant: Dyson Technology LimitedInventors: Henry Licming LAMBOURN, Stephen Benjamin COURTNEY, Jonathan Stephen MARCHBANK

Publication number: 20150342409Abstract: A domestic blender has a receptacle and a tool. The receptacle has a bottom wall, a side wall defining an opening through which foodstuff material is introduced to the receptacle, and a longitudinal axis about which the side wall is disposed. The tool has a processing member located within the receptacle adjacent to the bottom wall, extending outwardly from a rotational axis of the tool passing through the bottom wall and being inclined relative to the longitudinal axis of the receptacle. The processing member is rotatable about the rotational axis to describe a swept volume having a cross-section defined by the intersection of the swept volume with a plane extending through and containing both the longitudinal axis and the rotational axis, the cross-section having a first section having a lateral surface substantially orthogonal to the longitudinal axis, and a second section having a lateral surface substantially parallel to that axis.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2015Publication date: December 3, 2015Applicant: Dyson Technology LimitedInventors: Henry Licming LAMBOURN, Stephen Benjamin COURTNEY, Jonathan Stephen MARCHBANK

Publication number: 20150342406Abstract: A domestic blender includes a receptacle having a bottom wall, a side wall defining an opening through which foodstuff material is introduced to the receptacle, and a longitudinal axis about which the side wall is disposed. The bottom wall has a wall surface having a segment with one of a frustoconical shape, a faceted shape, a convex shape and a concave shape, the shape of the segment of the wall surface having an axis of symmetry which is inclined relative to the longitudinal axis of the receptacle so that an end of the segment which adjoins the side wall has a substantially circular shape. The blender also includes a rotatable tool having a processing member for engaging foodstuff material, the processing member being located within the receptacle adjacent to the segment of the wall surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2015Publication date: December 3, 2015Applicant: DYSON TECHNOLOGY LIMITEDInventors: Henry Licming LAMBOURN, Stephen Benjamin COURTNEY, Jonathan Stephen MARCHBANK

Publication number: 20130312216Abstract: A cleaner head for a vacuum cleaning appliance includes a suction cavity having a downwardly-directed opening through which debris enters the suction cavity. The opening is bounded in part by a front edge and a rear edge which is substantially co-planar with the front edge. A thread lifting strip is mounted on a support located within and moveable relative to the suction cavity. A spring urges the support in a direction extending towards the opening.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2012Publication date: November 28, 2013Applicant: DYSON TECHNOLOGY LIMITEDInventors: Victoria Isabelle PALMER, Henry Licming LAMBOURN, Spencer James Robert ARTHEY, Alexander Stuart LAMOURY

Patent number: 8544145Abstract: A surface treating head in the form of a floor tool for a vacuum cleaner includes a main body, a suction cavity and an outlet. The suction cavity includes first and second suction channels, bounded on both sides by respective working edges. A fluid flow path extends from the first suction channel to the second suction channel and from there to the outlet. The plurality of suction channels permits effective pick-up of dirt. To enable the surface treating head to be used to treat both carpeted floor surfaces and hard floor surfaces, the surface treating head may be provided with a brush unit and a drive mechanism for moving the brush unit between a stowed position and a deployed position.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2010Date of Patent: October 1, 2013Assignee: Dyson Technology LimitedInventors: Spencer James Robert Arthey, Henry Licming Lambourn, Stephen Robert Dimbylow, Alistair William Skuse

Patent number: 8468647Abstract: A surface treating head in the form of a floor tool for a vacuum cleaner includes a main body, a suction cavity and an outlet. The suction cavity includes first and second suction channels bounded on both sides by respective working edges. A fluid flow path extends from the first suction channel to the second suction channel and from there to the outlet. The plurality of suction channels permits effective pick-up of dirt, which may be further enhanced by an air duct, in the form of a slot, which draws air over some of the working edges. The invention permits a tool with a lower profile to be manufactured than would be achievable by providing separate flow paths between the respective channels and the outlet.Type: GrantFiled: March 11, 2010Date of Patent: June 25, 2013Assignee: Dyson Technology LimitedInventor: Henry Licming Lambourn
