Estimating the term…
A hand held appliance, such as a hairdryer, includes a body, a fluid flow path extending through the body from a fluid inlet through which a fluid flow enters the appliance to a fluid outlet for emitting the fluid flow from the appliance, a primary fluid flow path extending at least partially through the body from a second fluid inlet through which a primary fluid flow enters the appliance to a second fluid outlet, and a heater located in the body for heating fluid passing through the primary fluid flow path, wherein the heater is inaccessible from the fluid inlet. The heater may be inaccessible from the second fluid inlet. The second fluid inlet may be located in the body. The fluid inlet may be spaced from the second fluid inlet.
A hairdryer comprising a body, a fluid flow path extending through the body from a fluid inlet through which a fluid flow enters the hairdryer from external to the hairdryer to a fluid outlet for emitting the fluid flow from the hairdryer, a primary fluid flow path extending at least partially through the body from a second fluid inlet through which a primary fluid flow enters the hairdryer from external to the hairdryer to a second fluid outlet where the primary flow combines with the fluid flow at or near the fluid outlet of the hairdryer, and a heater located in the body for heating fluid passing through the primary fluid flow path, wherein the heater is located within the primary fluid flow path between the second fluid inlet and the second fluid outlet and is inaccessible from the fluid inlet and wherein the fluid inlet is located in one end of the body.
A hand held appliance comprising a body, a fluid flow path extending through the body from a fluid inlet through which a fluid flow enters the appliance from external to the appliance to a fluid outlet for emitting the fluid flow from the appliance, a primary fluid flow path extending at least partially through the body from a second fluid inlet through which a primary fluid flow enters the appliance from external to the appliance to a second fluid outlet where the primary flow combines with the fluid flow at or near the fluid outlet of the appliance, and a heater located in the body for heating fluid passing through the primary fluid flow path, wherein the heater is located between the second fluid inlet and the second fluid outlet and is inaccessible from the fluid inlet and wherein the fluid inlet is located in one end of the body.
