Light solidifying device having a magnetic slide cover

A method of curing a UV-curable nail gel applied to a fingernail or toenail, comprising:

• applying a layer of UV-curable nail gel onto at least one fingernail or at least one toe nail;
• inserting said at least one fingernail or at least one toe nail into a UV-curable device comprising:
• a body comprising an outer case having a first opening and a top portion, a slide slot defined around and pointing toward the first opening of the outer case, said slide slot located in the top portion of the outercase, an inner case being a polygonal case and disposed in the outer case, the inner case having a second opening and an inclined sidewall, the outer case and the inner case connected to a base;
• a magnetic slide cover unit having a slide cover having a third opening, the slide cover having a boss which is engaged with the slide slot of the outer case, the boss being connected to a fixing member, the slide cover slidably movable toward the first opening of the outer case by moving the boss along the slide slot;
• the slide cover having a first magnetic member;
• and the outer case's top portion having a second magnetic member which is located corresponding to the first magnetic member, the third opening of the slide cover located corresponding to the first opening of the outer case and the second opening of the inner case;
• a control unit connected to the body and having a receptacle, a circuit board and a control member connected to the circuit board, the control member of the control unit being exposed out from the outer case;
• and
• a light solidifying unit disposed in the body and having a light emitting diode module, the light emitting diode module having a heat dissipating member and a light emitting diode (LED) located in opposite to the heat dissipating member and connected to the wall of the inner case, the light solidifying unit and the receptacle of the control unit and the circuit board being electrically connected;
• activating said light emitting diode;
• and
• irradiating said at least one fingernail or at least one toe nail for a time and under conditions effective to cure the UV-curable nail gel on said at least one fingernail or at least one toe nail.

A magnetic slide cover unit for a light solidifying device, the magnetic slide cover unit connectable with the light solidifying device and movable with respect to the light solidifying device, the light solidifying device including an outer case and an inner case, and a base connected to both the outer case and the inner case, the magnetic slide cover unit comprising:

• a slide cover having an underside and a cover opening alignable with a first opening in the outer case and a second opening in the inner case of the light solidifying device, the slide cover including:
• a boss engagable with a slide slot provided on a top portion of the outer case of the light solidifying device, the slide cover movable toward and away from the first opening of the outer case by sliding the boss along the slide slot, said slide slot defined between a bottom end proximate to the first opening of the outer case and a top end distal to the first opening of the outer case;
• a fixing member connected to the boss, the fixing member operable to ensure the boss maintains engagement with the slide slot;
• and
• a first magnetic member attached to the underside of the slide cover and positioned in order to engage with a second magnetic member provided on the top portion of the outer case of the light solidifying device;
• said slide cover slidable to reduce the first opening's size by sliding the boss along the slide slot toward the slide slot's bottom end.
