Abstract
A portable hair dryer optimally having a dual heating source. In a first embodiment, the heating source is gas utilizing a gas cartridge. In a second embodiment, the heating source is electricity utilizing a battery. In a third embodiment, the heating source is either gas, electricity, or both utilizing both a gas cartridge and a battery.
Claims1
A portable hair dryer, comprising:
- a) a main body;
- b) a handle part;
- and
- c) a heating system;
- wherein said handle part is connected to a bottom of said main body;
- wherein said main body chides an air outlet;
- wherein said air outlet of said main body is disposed at a front end of said main body;
- wherein said main body includes an air inlet;
- wherein said air inlet said main body has a net thereat;
- wherein said air inlet of said main body is disposed at a rear of said main body;
- wherein said heating system is at least one of gas operated and electrically operated further comprising a motor;
- wherein said motor is disposed inside said main body;
- and
- wherein said motor has a transmission shaft, further comprising a fan;
- and
- wherein said fan disposed on said transmission shaft of said motor, further comprising a heating coil heat exchanger;
- wherein said heating coil heat exchanger is disposed in front of said fan;
- wherein said heating coil heat exchanger is disposed inside said main body;
- and
- wherein said heating coil heat exchanger is for generating heat, further comprising a combustion chamber;
- wherein said combustion chamber is disposed under said heating coil heat exchanger;
- wherein said combustion chamber is for gas to be combusted therein, further comprising a temperature sensor;
- wherein said temperature sensor is disposed below said heating coil heat exchanger;
- wherein said temperature sensor is operationally associated with a valve via a computer microchip, further comprising a temperature selector;
- wherein said temperature selector is operatively connected to said computer microchip;
- wherein selector is for controlling temperature of said portable hair dryer;
- wherein said valve is for controlling an outflow quantity of gas;
- and
- wherein said valve is connected with a gas fitted in said handle part, which in turn is for receiving a gas cartridge further comprising a flame nozzle;
- and
- wherein said flame nozzle is disposed in front of said valve;
- wherein said temperature selector is operated by a user to set a desired temperature;
- wherein said temperature sensor senses a temperature to make said valve move in accordance with a set desired temperature value such that the outflow quantity of gas for combustion is adapted for the user's need, further comprising an ON/OFF switch;
- wherein said ON/OFF is disposed on said handle part;
- wherein said ON/OFF is operatively connected to said computer microchip, further comprising an electrical power source interface;
- wherein said electrical power source interface is disposed in said handle part;
- and
- wherein said electrical power source interface is for receiving a battery for electrically powering said portable hair dryer, further comprising a battery charger;
- wherein said battery charger is operatively connected to said electrical power source interface;
- and
- wherein said battery charger is for charging the battery by interfacing with one of a vehicle outlet jack and a house current outlet, further comprising a mode switch;
- wherein said mode switch is operatively connected to said computer microchip;
- wherein said mode switch is disposed on said handle part;
- and
- wherein said mode switch is for choosing for use of one of electrical, gas, and both.
