This present invention relates generally to hair care products, and more specifically, to an electrothermal hair curling device.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONThere are wide varieties of electrothermal perm equipments currently, such as various hair curling devices. These hair curling devices generally comprise a lower clamping plate installed with an electric heating plate and an upper clamping plate controlled by a handle. The control interface of these hair curling devices are in the form of a flat button, and there devices don't provide a display screen to show temperature of the heating elements in real time, therefore operation of these hair curling devices when used by users is very inconvenient. In addition, the existing hair curling devices only simply utilize electric heating or ion to straighten hair, and the effect for hair straightening is not very good, especially operation of these devices are inconvenient.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONThe technical problem to be solved of the preset invention is to provide a hair curling device having a three-dimensional control interface which can conveniently control the heating elements, the ion generator and the display screen to facilitate user's operation, in order to overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages of the prior art.
According an aspect of the present invention, a hair curling device is provided, comprising a grip, an electric heating element installed on the grip, an ion generator, a three-dimensional control interface having a button; the three-dimensional control interface simultaneously connects to and controls the electric heating element and the ion generator.
Advantageously, the three-dimensional control interface has a base with a displacement, and the button is embedded into the displacement, the three-dimensional control interface connects to and controls other different functional elements of the hair curling device, and adjusts at least one functional element through displacing of the button along the displacement.
Advantageously, the three-dimensional control interface controls the hair curling device through the button displacing toward different directions.
Advantageously, the three-dimensional control interface connects to and controls a switch and a display screen of the hair curling device.
Advantageously, the electric heating element is a pipe-shaped heating element, and hair is wound on the heating element when it is used.
Advantageously, the three-dimensional control interface is changeable toward at least three different directions in the three-dimensional space, including directions between the negative X-axis, the positive X-axis, the negative Y-axis, the positive Y-axis, the negative Z-axis, and the positive Z-axis, and the negative X-axis, the positive X-axis, the negative Y-axis, the positive Y-axis, the negative Z-axis, and the positive Z-axis of the same button.
Advantageously, displacing directions of the button comprise directions between the negative X-axis, the positive X-axis, the negative Y-axis, the positive Y-axis, the negative Z-axis, and the positive Z-axis, and the negative X-axis, the positive X-axis, the negative Y-axis, the positive Y-axis, the negative Z-axis, and the positive Z-axis of the same button.
Advantageously, the three-dimensional control interface has a base with a cross-shaped displacement, and the button is embedded into the cross-shaped displacement of the base and is capable of displacing back and forth along the displacement.
Advantageously, the button of the three-dimensional control interface has arbitrary shape, such as rod-shaped or cross-shaped.
Advantageous effect of the present invention lies in as below: 1) the three-dimensional control interface is easy to use and operate; 2) the hair curling device combines the thermal effect of the heating element with the ionic effect to achieve the purpose of curling hair, thus the hair curling effect is better; 3) working status of the hair curling device is shown on the display screen to facilitate the users adjusting the hair curling device.
The accompanying drawings illustrate one or more embodiments of the invention and, together with the written description, serve to explain the principles of the invention, and wherein:
