  • Publication number: 20210204669
    Abstract: A hand-held hair styling device permits precise introduction of a curl into the hair. A selectively actuatable drive system drives rotation of one or more rotatable bases, each carrying a hair styling element on it. The drive system includes a transmission connecting an actuator to the rotatable base to transmit the movement of the actuator in one direction into rotation of the rotatable base in a first direction. The transmission is configured to prevent rotation of the rotatable base in a second direction opposite to the first direction upon movement of the actuator in an opposite direction. In another aspect the transmission is configured to produce a single 360° rotation of the rotatable base upon movement of the actuator in the first direction.
