Abstract

Device 3.2 with an automatic switch-off mechanism and a steam hood 4 for the steam treatment of the scalp hair 1 of a person 2. A sensor 7 for the recording of the ammonia emission values Vx1...Vxn is located inside the steam hood 4.

The device 3.2 or, respectively, the steam hood 4 has an extraction unit 5 that is controllable by the control unit 6 and extracts the ambient air in the neighborhood of an (upper) forehead region (A) or an eye/nose region (B) of person (2). At the start to of the steam treatment the extraction unit 5 is automatically activated by the control unit 6. By convergence with or undershooting of a pre-set ammonia emission value V1 the extraction unit 5 is deactivated automatically. Preferably an electric fan 10 that is simple to control (in on/off function and fan performance) and is very cost-effective (Fig. 5) is used as extraction unit 5, which can be arranged compactly inside or on the steam hood 4.

Description

  • The invention concerns a method for the steam treatment of scalp hair in accordance with the preamble of, respectively, Claim 1 or 2, as well as a device for the steam treatment of scalp hair in accordance with the preamble of, respectively, Claim 3 or 5.
  • Owing to the positive results obtained, steam treatment of scalp hair is usually carried out with the aid of a device (steam apparatus) during hair color applications in hair dressing salons. Suchlike devices are known in different embodiments from, for example, WO2005/001337A1 (Fig. 7). In such a device steam is blown through a spray into a steam hood in which is positioned the head of a person (hairdresser's client) to whose scalp hair a hair color has been applied. Ammonia is released through the chemical process and the heat action of the steam. Since new steam is constantly generated, the ammonia is carried out of the steam hood with the steam and right up to the eyes and nose of the person and can cause irritation there. In addition an odor nuisance can occur as a result.
  • The task of the invention is to prevent by simple means this irritation and/or odor nuisance during a corresponding steam treatment of scalp hair.
  • The task was solved according to the features of, respectively, Claim 1 or 2 or 3 or 5. Further embodiments of the invention follow from the respective subclaims.
  • The invention is more closely illustrated by means of several embodiment examples. Shown are:

  • The principle solution of the set task is to extract the steam 11 enriched with ammonia C at the front region 12 of the steam hood 4. This is preferably carried out by means of an electrically driven fan 10. This fan 10 is preferably attached directly at the front region 12 of the steam hood 4. A suction port 13 of the fan 10 is so designed in such a way that the extraction of the steam 11 takes place mainly in the region above the eyes 14. Since ammonia emission C is reduced to such an extent during the course of the steam treatment that no irritation or odor nuisance can occur, from this time point on the fan 10 is either switched off at a preset time ta or is deactivated at a preset ammonia emission value V1.
  • The fan 10 can also be seated within the device 3.2 in order, for example, to support the output of the steam 11. In this case the suction port 13 is passed through the steam hood 4 into the neighborhood of the eyes 14.
  • The amount of air D that is to be extracted is controlled by the use of the electric fan 10. This control can take place during a (preset) time ta, or through an ammonia sensor 7 located in the extracted air 16 with which the concentration of the ammonia emission C is measured and the fan 10 correspondingly regulated.
  • Since the concentration of the ammonia emission C in the air changes during the treatment the correct amount of air 16 can always be extracted with a controlled fan 10 in order to avoid irritation of the eyes 14. On the other hand, only the amount of air 16 that is absolutely necessary is extracted. In this way a uniform dampness of the scalp hair 1 is attained and a very consistent color reaction on the scalp hair 1 is achieved.
  • Fig. 1 shows a flow diagram of a first method for the steam treatment of scalp hair 1 of a person 2 with a device 3.1 with a steam hood 4, wherein the scalp hair 1 was previously treated with a (hair coloring) agent that contains ammonia C. At the start to of steam treatment a controllable extraction unit 5 on the steam hood 4 is activated by a control unit 6, by which means highly odorous ammonia gasses (ammonia emission C) from the steam hood 4 cannot spread into a face region F (especially in the region of the eyes and nose B) of a person 2. After a preset time t1 has elapsed the extraction unit 5 is deactivated. At the end of the steam treatment tb the device 3.1 (Fig. 4) is switched off automatically.
  • Fig. 2 shows a flow diagram of a second method for the steam treatment of scalp hair 1 of a person 2 with a device 3.2 with a steam hood 4, wherein the scalp hair 1 is first treated with an agent that contains ammonia. At the start to of a steam treatment a controllable extraction unit 5 on the steam hood 4 is activated by a control unit 6, wherein during the further course of the steam treatment ammonia emissions C are recorded by a sensor 7 that is attached inside the steam hood 4 and measured by a measurement unit 8 (Vx1 ... Vx5). The measurement unit 8 is connected with the control unit 6, wherein on attainment or undershooting of a preset ammonia emission value Vx5=V1 the extraction unit 5 is deactivated automatically by the control unit 6. At the end of the steam treatment tb the device 3.2 (Fig. 5) is switched off automatically.
  • Fig. 3 shows a side view of a device 3 of the prior art. It is clear from this that the ammonia emissions C from the treated scalp hair 1 reach the eye/nose region B of the person 2 and can lead to irritation and an odor nuisance.
  • Fig. 4 shows schematically a side view of a first device 3.1 with a steam hood 4 for the steam treatment of scalp hair 1 of a person 2, wherein the scalp hair 1 was previously treated with an agent that contains ammonia. The device 3.1 has a controllable extraction unit 5 with a suction port 13 that extracts the ambient air in the neighborhood of an (upper) forehead region (A) or an eye/nose region (B) of the person (2). At the start to of the steam treatment the extraction unit 5 is activated by a control unit 6 and is deactivated after a prescribed time ta has elapsed. A time switch 9 is attached as control unit 6. The extraction unit 5 is preferably an electric fan 10, which is preferably attached in the front region 12 of the steam hood 4. In this way the flow of ammonia gasses into the eye/nose region B (eyes 14, nose 15) is practically prevented. It is possible to plan to control an amount of air D of the extracted air 16 through the fan 10.
  • Fig. 5 shows a side view of a second device 3.2 with an automatic switch-off mechanism and a steam hood 4 for the steam treatment of scalp hair 1 of a person 2. A sensor 7 to record the ammonia emission values Vx1...Vxn is arranged inside the steam hood 4. The ammonia sensor 7 is connected with a measurement unit 8 for measurement of the ammonia emission values Vx1...Vxn, wherein the measurement unit 8 is connected with a control unit 6. The device 3.2 or, respectively, the steam hood 4 has an extraction unit 5 that is controllable by the control unit 6 and extracts the ambient air in the neighborhood of an (upper) forehead region A or an eye/nose region B of the person 2. At the start to of the steam treatment the extraction unit 5 is activated automatically by the control unit 6. By convergence with or undershooting of a preset ammonia emission value V1 the extraction unit 5 is deactivated automatically. Preferably an electric fan 10 that can be arranged neatly in or on the steam hood 4, is simple to operate (in on/off function and fan performance), and is very cost-effective is used as extraction unit (5).
  • The extraction unit 5 is arranged inside or outside the steam hood 4 in such a way that extraction of the ambient air in the neighborhood of the forehead region A or the eye/nose region B of the person 2 takes place, wherein the electric fan 10 is arranged in the extraction unit 5.
