Abstract: A hair coloring appliance includes a handle and a hair color delivery system supported within the handle. A nozzle assembly is adapted to receive hair color. The nozzle assembly includes a stationary frame and a nozzle array through which the hair color is delivered to the hair and a plurality of filaments adjacent the nozzles which are longer than the nozzles, acting as a stand-off between the nozzles and the scalp. A motor reciprocates the nozzle array back and forth as hair color moves through the nozzles.

Abstract: A smart device having a hair color application (App) stored thereon capable of providing and receiving hair color information to and from a user. A photograph of the user's hair is taken using the smart device. A palette of possible colors is then calculated in view of the photograph and other hair information provided by the user. The smart device includes a display for showing the calculated colors, and for showing colors selected by the user on the user's hair.

Abstract: The assembly includes a pivoting body member connectable to an outboard motor assembly, wherein the pivoting body member is movable along a transition path having a locked condition endpoint and an unlocked condition endpoint. A pivoting latch seat mechanically cooperates with a fixed latch pin in the assembly to maintain the pivoting latch seat and the outboard motor assembly in a locked condition when the outboard motor assembly is in a lowered position. The pivoting latch seat is mounted and arranged to disengage from the fixed latch pin to an unlocked condition when the pivoting body member is moved along the transition path to the unlocked condition endpoint, thereafter permitting movement of the outboard motor assembly to a raised position.

Abstract: The system includes a hair color packet assembly having one hair color packet and one developer packet and a pump assembly for moving the hair coloring material and developer material to a mixing assembly which mixes the color and the developer and delivers it to a brushhead/distributor, which has openings through which the selected hair color formulation is delivered. The brushhead/distributor is mountable in a handle having a motor which drives the brushhead/distributor in a linear oscillating manner.

Abstract: The appliance includes an appliance body/handle and an interface assembly for receiving a detachable workpiece. The body/handle includes a signal-generating assembly with electrical connections to the appliance body interface. The signal-generating assembly is controlled by a microprocessor, which generates signals adapted to control and operate the workpiece which is attached to the appliance. A plurality of workpieces are included which are individually adapted for treating various spot skin irregularities. The appliance further includes a system for identifying the workpiece attached, so that appropriate operating signals can be generated and provided to the attached workpiece.

Abstract: The system includes a hair color packet assembly having one hair color packet and one developer packet and a pump assembly for moving the hair coloring material and developer material to a mixing assembly which mixes the color and the developer and delivers it to a brushhead/distributor, which has openings through which the selected hair color formulation is delivered. The brushhead/distributor is mountable in a handle having a motor which drives the brushhead/distributor in a linear oscillating manner.

Abstract: The system includes a hair color packet assembly having several individual hair color packets and one developer packet, each packet having a pump for delivering selected amounts of material to a mixing assembly. A control assembly operable in response to a user's input controls each of the pumps to deliver selected amounts of color material and developer material to a mixing assembly which mixes the colors and the developer and delivers it to a brushhead/distributor, which has openings through which the selected hair color formulation is delivered. The brushhead/distributor is mountable in a handle having a motor which drives the brushhead/distributor in a linear oscillating manner.

Abstract: The hair coloring appliance includes a flexible cap which is adapted and sized to fit against the head of the user, covering the user's hair. The cap includes a sealing band which seals the edge of the cap to the user's head. A vacuum pump assembly is connected to the cap as well as a color infusion assembly. A control system controls the vacuum assembly to create a vacuum in the cap volume and to permit infusion of color material when the desired vacuum has been created.

Abstract: An appliance for facial skin applications having a drive assembly with an oscillating drive shaft. A base member is removably attachable to the oscillating drive member and an infuser member includes a soft tip with a concave surface adapted to hold a skin formulation for infusing into the skin of the user. A spring assembly connects the base member to the infuser member, and is arranged to convert the oscillating action of the drive shaft and the base member to an action having a significant axial component, toward and away from the skin, to produce an infusing action on the skin.
