Abstract: A comb for a hair-care appliance that is configured to supply a heated airflow. The comb includes a housing defining an inlet for receiving an airflow from the hair care appliance, and first and second longitudinally extending and transversely spaced-apart outlets that are in fluid communication with the inlet. The comb further includes a tooth structure mounted to the housing, the tooth structure comprising a row of comb teeth spaced along a longitudinal axis, the row of comb teeth interposed between the first and second longitudinally extending outlets. The comb further includes a flow director movably mounted to the housing so as to be moveable between a first position in which the flow director directs airflow from the inlet to the first outlet, and a second position in which the flow director directs airflow from the inlet to the second outlet.

Abstract: A haircare appliance having an air inlet, an air outlet, and an airflow generator for generating an airflow from the air inlet to the air outlet and an attachment for a haircare appliance, the attachment including an air inlet, an air outlet. A curved surface adjacent to and downstream of the air outlet. The haircare appliance or the attachment has a curved surface adjacent to and downstream of the air outlet. The haircare appliance or the attachment is configured such that airflow exiting the air outlet generates a first force to attract hair toward the curved surface, and a second force to push hair away from the curved surface.

Abstract: A comb for mounting to a hair-care appliance configured to supply a heated airflow. The comb includes a housing defining an inlet for receiving an airflow from the appliance when mounted thereto and an outlet fluidly connected to the inlet for discharging the airflow. The comb further includes first and second tooth structures mounted to the housing, each tooth structure comprising a row of teeth extending longitudinally across the outlet. The comb also includes a trigger operatively connected to the first or second tooth structure and configured such that depressing the trigger provides relative longitudinal movement between the teeth of the first tooth structure and the teeth of the second tooth structure from a retracted position for receiving a tress of hair between teeth of the first and second tooth structures to an extended position for clamping the tress of hair between teeth of the tooth structures.

Abstract: A comb attachment for mounting to a hair-care appliance configured to supply a heated airflow. The comb attachment includes a housing defining an inlet for receiving an airflow from the appliance when mounted thereto and an outlet fluidly connected to the inlet for discharging the airflow. The attachment further includes first and second longitudinally extending rows of outer protrusions mounted to the housing so as to extend across or alongside the outlet. The attachment also includes a longitudinally extending row of inner protrusions mounted to the housing so as to be interposed between the first and second rows of outer protrusions.

Abstract: An attachment for a haircare appliance, the attachment having an air inlet, a primary air outlet, first and second secondary air outlets, a curved surface, a main body defining the primary air outlet and the curved surface. The curved surface extends around the main body from a first end of the curved surface adjacent to and downstream of a first side of the primary air outlet to a second, opposite end of the curved surface adjacent to and downstream of a second, opposite side of the primary air outlet. The attachment comprises a guide defining the first and second secondary air outlets, the guide arranged to direct air from the primary air outlet to both the first and second secondary air outlets and across the respective first and second ends of the curved surface simultaneously.

Abstract: An attachment for a haircare appliance, the attachment having a main body including an air inlet and an air outlet. The attachment has a guide for directing airflow from the air outlet across a curved surface of the main body, such that airflow directed by the guide generates a first force to attract hair toward the curved surface, and a second force to push hair away from the curved surface. The main body is rotatable relative to the guide between a first position in which airflow exiting the air outlet is directed by the guide and a second position, in which airflow exiting the air outlet is not directed by the guide.

Abstract: Disclosed is a haircare appliance including: an air inlet; an air outlet; an airflow generator for generating an airflow from the air inlet to the air outlet; a heater for heating the airflow; and a hair treatment chamber for receiving hair, the hair treatment chamber in fluid communication with the air outlet. The hair treatment chamber includes a wall, an opening through which hair is insertable into the hair treatment chamber, and an aperture formed in the wall. The haircare appliance includes a first configuration in which airflow through the aperture is unrestricted and a second configuration in which airflow through the aperture is restricted.

Abstract: A haircare appliance has an air inlet, an air outlet, and an airflow generator for generating an airflow from the air inlet to the air outlet. The air outlet is at least partially defined by movable member. Movement of the movable member varies a cross-sectional area of the air outlet, and the movable member is movable in a radial direction relative to a central axis of the haircare appliance.

Abstract: An attachment for a haircare appliance, the attachment having an air inlet, first and second air outlets, and a curved surface adjacent to and downstream of the first and second air outlets. The attachment has a switching member movable from a first switch position in which airflow passes through the first air outlet across the curved surface and does not pass through the second air outlet, to a second switch position in which airflow passes through the second air outlet across the curved surface and does not pass through the first air outlet. The attachment has a retention mechanism for retaining the switching member in one of the first and second switch positions in the absence of an applied force to the switching member by a user of the haircare appliance. Airflow exiting the air outlet generates a first force to attract hair toward the curved surface, and a second force to push hair away from the curved surface.
