  • Patent number: 4278223
    Abstract: This invention consists of combining a vertical stand with a standard hand held hair drier to convert the hand drier into a self supporting one. The stand is made into telescopic components for height adjustment; and the drier is attached to the stand, at its top, swivably, so that it can be adjusted to any required angle. The drier to stand attachment consists of a bow-shaped yoke with a bolt in each of its upright arms. The bolts are aligned to meet in the center of the yoke, and the end of each bolt is equipped with a curved plate which is free to rotate. The hand drier is clamped between the said curved plates at any required angle. The required friction between the telescopic components of the stand is provided by springs in compression contained in the inner component, pressing against the inner wall of the outer component.
