Abstract

According to one embodiment of the current design, there is provided a styling apparatus used to style a user's hair. The apparatus includes a styling arm, a layer of glass positioned on the styling arm, and a film layer deposited or printed on a bottom surface of the layer of glass and positioned between the layer of glass and the styling arm. User hair placed atop the layer of glass is styled using heat passing from the film layer through the layer of glass. The film layer may comprise an ink film layer, a resistive ink film layer, a layer of Polymer Thick Film (PTF) ink, and/or a nano ink layer.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A styling apparatus used to style a user's hair, comprising:
 a styling arm;   a layer of glass positioned on the styling arm; and   a film layer deposited on a bottom surface of the layer of glass and positioned between the layer of glass and the styling arm;   wherein user hair placed atop the layer of glass is styled using heat passing from the film layer through the layer of glass.   
     
     
         2 . The styling apparatus of  claim 1 , where the layer of glass comprises tempered glass. 
     
     
         3 . The styling apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the film layer comprises an ink film layer. 
     
     
         4 . The styling apparatus of  claim 3 , wherein the ink film layer comprises a resistive ink film layer. 
     
     
         5 . The styling apparatus of  claim 4 , wherein the resistive ink film layer comprises a layer of Polymer Thick Film (PTF) ink. 
     
     
         6 . The styling apparatus of  claim 3 , wherein the ink film layer is uniformly distributed beneath the layer of glass. 
     
     
         7 . The styling apparatus of  claim 3 , wherein the ink film layer is distributed beneath the layer of glass in a form of a decorative pattern. 
     
     
         8 . The styling apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising an insulation layer below the film layer and away from the layer of glass. 
     
     
         9 . A hair styling apparatus, comprising:
 an arm;   a reciprocal arm joined to the arm;   a layer of glass positioned in the arm; and   a film layer printed on a bottom surface of the layer of glass and positioned beneath the layer of glass and proximate the arm.   
     
     
         10 . The hair styling apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the film layer is electrically powered. 
     
     
         11 . The hair styling apparatus of  claim 9 , further comprising a battery used to power the styling apparatus. 
     
     
         12 . The hair styling apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the hair styling apparatus is powered by an external power source. 
     
     
         13 . The hair styling apparatus of  claim 10 , wherein user hair placed atop the layer of glass is styled using heat passing from the film layer through the layer of glass and film layer. 
     
     
         14 . The hair styling apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the film layer comprises an ink film layer. 
     
     
         15 . The hair styling apparatus of  claim 14 , wherein the ink film layer comprises a resistive ink film layer. 
     
     
         16 . The hair styling apparatus of  claim 15 , wherein the resistive ink film layer comprises a layer of Polymer Thick Film (PTF) ink. 
     
     
         17 . The hair styling apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the film layer comprises a nano ink layer. 
     
     
         18 . A hair styling apparatus, comprising:
 a pair of styling arms joined at a hinge, the pair of styling arms comprising a first arm and a second arm;   a clear layer of glass located on the first arm; and   a resistive ink layer deposited on a bottom surface of the clear layer of glass and positioned between the clear layer of glass and the first arm.   
     
     
         19 . The hair styling apparatus of  claim 18 , wherein the resistive ink layer comprises a layer of Polymer Thick Film (PTF) ink. 
     
     
         20 . The hair styling apparatus of  claim 18 , wherein the resistive ink layer comprises a nano ink layer.
