Heart-shaped electrically heated hair curler set

Abstract

An electrically-heated hair curling appliance includes housing having a transparent lid covering a base member mounting a plurality of miniature sized heating posts, each arranged to mount and heat a miniature curler. The interior heating is accomplished by means of heated, mounted tubular rods on which the curlers are supported, connected to a central heating element. Placed over each rod is a miniature curler measuring ¾ inch in diameter and 3½ inches long. In an example, two rows of rods are provided to receive the curlers and arranged in heart-shaped rows. Curlers are configured with a metal interior defining a thermal interface with the heater rods. Heat is efficiently transferred outwardly from the heaters through the heater rods to the metal interior of each hair curler. No part of the heater is exposed to dissipate heat so that substantially all heat generated by each heater is transferred to each corresponding hair curler.
