Description:
CAMERA-INTEGRATED TWEEZERS

TECHNICAL FIELD

The invention relates to tweezers that allow unwanted hairs to be removed from the human body with the help of an integrated camera.

The invention relates in particular to a camera-integrated tweezer, which makes it easy to remove hairs from hard-to-see areas of the human body and can be grabbed by hand in environments without mirrors by making them visible, and allows easy retention by viewing objects of smaller sizes more closely..

PRIOR ART

The busy and fast-paced life of the present era reveals the necessity of minimizing the time allocated for personal care. For this reason, epilators, shavers, clippers, and hair removal devices are used for removing hairs on the body surfaces as personal care tools that give results in a short time. Epilators, shavers and various apparatuses have battery-powered or electrically driven motors and are costly. The said apparatuses are not suitable for use for every region of the body and vary according to the areas to be used.

In the prior art, the fastest and most effective way to get unwanted small hairs on the body is tweezers. Because, with tweezers, even the short hairs can be removed from their root. Tweezers are practiced by holding the hairs, pulling and then releasing them. However, the application becomes difficult when the hairs are too small that they are not visible to the eye. Especially when users who use glasses want to do eyebrow operation, it becomes impossible for them to see the hairs with the naked eye when they remove their glasses. Therefore, led lights are attached to the existing tweezers in order to make invisible hairs visible. Although this adjustment provides ease of operation, it does not eliminate the restriction of the application of the process in areas that are not visible to the eye.

No patent application similar to the invention is found in the patent survey conducted, still, there are documents US 2018231237 and CN 207492793 related to the prior art.

The document US 2018231237 relates to a novel illuminating tweezer which contains an internal battery-powered illuminator, that effectively illuminates a region between tips of the tweezers, which are used for personal care functions such as plucking eyebrow hairs, or for gripping and manipulating small articles. When the battery of the internal battery illuminator starts to decrease, it causes the lighting to weaken. The document CN 207492793 discloses tweezers with a sensor which is manufactured for medical use and is designed to help healthcare professionals keep needles, wraps, and stitches easily. The pressure sensor is integrated inside and the battery has compartments. The cost of replacing batteries is high and the fact that it is designed for medical purposes only narrows the usage area.

As a result, improvements are made in the camera-integrated tweezers so that new structures are needed to eliminate the disadvantages mentioned above and to bring solutions to the existing systems.

THE PURPOSE OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a camera-integrated tweezers that meets the above- mentioned requirements, eliminates all disadvantages and brings some additional advantages.

The main purpose of the invention is to ensure that the relative distance of the skin with the hairs to be removed is accessible by means of the image transferred from the camera, such as underfoot and nape, which are not visible to the eye.

Another purpose of the invention is to save time by shortening long processing times due to the integrated camera.

Another purpose of the invention is to ensure that even the thinnest unwanted hairs are easily visible in dim and dark environments, any where, any time, with its special camera and lighting. (In the car, plane, camping, elderly people in their bed etc)

Another purpose of the invention is to provide ease of operation with its ergonomic structure.

Another purpose of the invention is to provide ease of carrying in a bag with its ideal size.

Another purpose of the invention is to grasp small objects (bolts, pins, splinter, etc.). In this way, it provides a wide range of applications.

Another purpose of the invention is to increase the functionality with its feature of wifi image transfer to smart phones, tablets, laptops and other devices.

Another purpose of the invention is to ease of operation by using usb charging.

In order to realize all the advantages mentioned above and will be understood from the following detailed description, the present invention is the camera-integrated tweezer which makes small objects visible with the help of led illuminator in dark and dim environments, having the grip levers to keep these objects easily and close up, characterized by comprising,

•a camera positioned next to the said led illuminator between the said grip levers, allowing wireless data transfer to view objects in areas not visible to the eye, to record images and process them, •a USB port that allows images to be transferred via cable to other technological devices and the said camera-integrated tweezers to be charged.

The structural and characteristic features and all advantages of the invention outlined in the drawings below and in the detailed description made by referring these figures will be understood clearly. Therefore, the evaluation should be made considering these figures and detailed explanations.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

In this detailed description, preferred embodiments of the camera-integrated tweezers (A) of the invention will be explained only for a better understanding of the subject matter and without any restrictive effect.

The camera-integrated tweezers embodiment (A) of the invention, whose general perspective views are shown in Figures 1 and 2, comprises a grip lever (10), the macro camera (40), USB port (30), led illuminator (20), and charge warning light (50). The camera integrated tweezer (A) configuration allows the hairs to be removed from the root by grasping and pulling the hairs and then releasing them. Its ideal dimensions offer ease of transportation. It can be produced using alternative products.

The grip lever (10) is configured symmetrically so that the user can hold objects. The grip lever (10) has an ergonomic holder (1 1 ) that allows the fingers to be positioned in an ergonomic manner without slipping. This allows for easier retention. At the end of the grip lever (10), there is a compression tip (12) that allows the object to be compressed and then held. As a result of the force applied to the ergonomic holder (1 1 ), holding and pulling operations are performed by moving the compression tip (12).

Figure 3 shows the view from the bottom end of the said camera-integrated tweezers (A). The said macro camera (40) eliminates the problem of inaccessibility by displaying hairs and/or objects in areas that are manually accessible but not visible. The macro camera (40) has wifi, Bluetooth, and recording features. Wifi and Bluetooth enable wireless data transmission to technological devices such as smartphones and computers while increasing the functionality of the macro camera (40).

Figure 4 shows the top view of the camera integrated tweezers (A). At the top of the said camera-integrated tweezers (A), there is the USB port (30). The USB port (30) allows the macro camera (40) to transfer the monitored and recorded data to technological devices, and to charge the camera-integrated tweezers (A).

Led illuminator (20) allows invisible hairs and objects to be illuminated and made visible in dark and dim environments. Moreover, the charge warning light (50) flashes when the charge of the said led illuminator (20) is low, giving information about the battery status.
