Abstract (en)
A rotating air directing apparatus for a hair dryer is provided. The apparatus includes a tubular rotating member and a nozzle member disposed adjacent to an outlet opening of the tubular rotating member and adapted to rotate with the tubular rotating member. The nozzle member includes an angled tubular member having a nozzle opening disposed at an acute angle relative to the outlet opening. A plurality of curved vanes each have a fixed edge at a circumferential inner surface of the tubular rotating member, and an opposing free edge that defines a central open space of the tubular rotating member. Each of the plurality of curved vanes are spaced apart from each other, thereby defining a plurality of curved radial openings between adjacent curved vanes.
