ABSTRACT:
A radiant heat hair dryer is provided, using a disc-shaped casing in which is mounted a ring-like, infra-red radiator, together with reflector means for directing the infra-red radiation through a grille-like member, that is shaped and constructed to support a small, inexpensive, motor for a flat air fan that directs a gentle flow of air through the same grille-like member providing only slight movement of the hair to avoid disarray of the hairdo while permitting the radiant heat to penetrate into the body of hair. The infra-red radiator includes an elongated, helical heating wire positioned in a ring-shaped, elongated, quartz tube whose ends are supported on a ceramic mount, with a secondary resistance heater carried in the ceramic mount for providing convection heat to ambient air. The resistance heater is advantageously employed to reduce current drawn by the fan's motor, so that an inexpensive, direct current, motor may be employed.
