Patent ID: 8307948

Claim:
A silencer device for a hair dryer, comprising: a container structure ( 2 ) developing about an axis (X) and exhibiting at least an inlet opening ( 8 ), and an outlet opening ( 9 ) and a conduit ( 10 ) connecting the inlet ( 8 ) and outlet ( 9 ) openings to one another; attenuating means ( 3 ), inserted internally of the conduit ( 10 ) for interfering with a flow of air between the inlet opening ( 8 ) and the outlet opening ( 9 ) in such a way as to at least partly attenuate sound vibrations associated to the air flow; wherein the container structure ( 2 ) comprises a lateral wall ( 6 ), developing about the axis (X), and a bottom wall ( 7 ) arranged transversally of the axis (X) and connected to the lateral wall ( 6 ), and wherein the inlet opening ( 8 ) is realized on the lateral wall ( 6 ); the inlet opening ( 8 ) facing the axis (X) and defining an air flow direction along a transversal direction to the axis (X), and in that the silencer device ( 1 ) further comprises deviating means ( 12 ), the deviating means ( 12 ) at least partially defining the bottom wall ( 7 ) or projecting from the bottom wall ( 7 ), the deviating means ( 12 ) comprising a deviator wall ( 13 ) which projects sufficiently into the conduit ( 10 ) so that incoming air flowing along the air flow direction will be effectively aimed towards and into the deviator wall ( 13 ) and redirected into a direction through the outlet opening ( 9 ).
