  • Patent number: 6662811
    Abstract: In a device (1) for applying an additive to hair comprising a longitudinally extending base part (2) for making contact with the hair during operation, which base part (2) comprises a distribution system (3) for additive, which distribution system (3) has an inlet (4) which is connected to an additive dispenser (5) and has outlets (6) for applying the additive to the hair during operation, a flowpath (7,7′) is present between the inlet (4) and each outlet (6), which flow path comprises at least one ramification point (8), said flow paths (7,7′) having a substantially identical flow resistance measured from the inlet (4) to each outlet (6). Additive originating from the inlet (4) during operation and following the flow paths (7,7′) to each outlet (6) will reach all outlets (6) practically simultaneously, and the additive flow-rate through each outlet is substantially the same.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6631724
    Abstract: A device (1) for applying an additive to hair, comprising a longitudinally extending base part (2) for making contact with the hair during operation, which base part (2) comprises a distribution system (3) for additive. The distribution system (3) has an inlet (4) which is connected to an additive dispenser (5), and which distribution system has outlets (6) for applying the additive to the hair during operation. The distribution system (3) comprises a carrier element (10) with distribution channels (7) which is covered by a covering element (11), while said carrier element (10) and covering element (11) are detachably connected to each other. Detaching of the carrier element (10) from the covering element (11) uncovers the carrier element (10) with the distribution channels (7) so that the distribution system (3) becomes accessible for cleaning purposes.
