The present invention is directed to an appliance for oral hygiene, in particular an oral irrigating apparatus 10, comprising a hand-held unit 12 and a base unit 14 interconnected by a fluid conducting hose 19 and electrical conductors 21, 23. By means of an operating means 33 arranged on the handle section 28 of the hand-held unit 12, two operating parameters, particularly the On/Off state and the jet pressure of the oral irrigating apparatus 10, can be varied.

Electrically powered appliance for oral hygiene

Case for holding tools for oral and dental care

An electric motor of a hair dryer has a stamped metal carrier serving for the preassembly of a diode bridge circuit and brushes and springs for the electric motor. The carrier, together with its preassembled components, can be mounted in an end shield of the electric motor, which end shield is provided, with suitable clearance spaces for this purpose. The entire assembly can then be easily slipped onto the commutator of the electric motor provided in the hair dryer housing.

Electrical appliance for personal use

A blow dryer has a housing elongated along an axis and formed with a relatively large head and a slender handle. A two-part centrifugal fan having a hollow interior is mounted in the head and is driven by a motor mounted in the handle. A heater is provided inside the hollow fan. Rotation of the fan by the motor therefore draws air axially in at both ends of the housing, passes the air over the heater inside the fan, and expells the air laterally from the housing.
