- Application Filed: March 14, 2023
- Assignees: OMM Imports LLC (Doral, FL, US)
- Claim: 1. A handle device for emitting a gas proximate to a head of a skin care device having a head, comprising: a halo that at least partially surrounds the head of the skin care device and which defines an opening through which the head of the skin care device passes and extends in front of the halo when the handle device is attached to the skin care device; the halo having an internal channel, and a plurality of gas openings that are fluidly coupled to the channel; and an inlet having a bore that is fluidly coupled to the internal channel of the halo.
- Claim: 2. The handle device of claim 1 , wherein the halo has a front surface in which the plurality of gas openings are disposed, and which faces in a same direction as the head of the skin care device.
- Claim: 3. The handle device of claim 1 , further comprising a stem having a top, and wherein the halo is coupled to the top of the stem.
- Claim: 4. The handle device of claim 3 , wherein the halo is hingeably coupled to the top of the stem, and is moveable between a raised and a lowered position.
- Claim: 5. The handle device of claim 3 , wherein the inlet is disposed on the stem, and the stem includes a channel from the inlet to the internal channel of the halo.
- Claim: 6. The handle device of claim 3 , wherein the stem extends to a base that is configured to bear against a portion of the skin care device.
- Claim: 7. The handle device of claim 6 wherein the inlet is disposed on the base, and is fluidly coupled to a channel in the stem that is coupled to the internal channel in the halo.
- Claim: 8. The handle device of claim 3 , wherein the stem has a bottom and the device further includes a pair of opposing clip members configured to extend partly around a body of the skin care device.
- Claim: 9. A handle device for use with a skin care device, the skin care device having a body with a head at one end of the body and a bottom at an opposite end of the body from the head, the handle device comprising: a base having a top that is configured to bear against the bottom of the skin care device; a stem that extends from the base to a top of the stem; a halo coupled to the top of the stem by a hinge such that the halo is moveable about the hinge between a lowered position and a raised position, the halo being configured to surround the head of the skin care device and having a through opening configured to allow the head of the skin care device to extend there through, the halo further having a top surface that has a plurality of gas openings around the top surface of the halo, the halo further comprising a channel inside the halo that is fluidly coupled to each gas opening of the plurality of gas openings; and an inlet having an opening, wherein there is a channel inside the handle device between the opening of the inlet and the channel inside the halo.
- Claim: 10. The handle device of claim 9 , wherein the inlet extends from the base, and the channel extends through the stem to the halo.
- Claim: 11. The handle device of claim 9 , wherein the stem extends from a back of the base, at the top of the base.
- Claim: 12. The handle device of claim 9 , wherein, in the lowered position, the top surface of the halo is configured to be set back from a front surface of the head of the skin care device.
- Claim: 13. A handle device for use with a skin care device, the skin care device having a body with a head at one end of the body and a bottom at an opposite end of the body from the head, the handle device comprising: a gas emitting portion that is configured to be positioned proximate to the head of the skin care device when the handle device is used with the skin care device, the gas emitting portion having at least one gas opening; and an inlet, and wherein there is a channel inside the handle device between the inlet and the at least one gas opening of the gas emitting portion.
- Claim: 14. The handle device of claim 13 , wherein the gas emitting portion is a halo that is configured to at least partially surround the head of the skin care device, the handle device further comprising: a base; a stem extending from the base, the stem having a top, wherein the halo is coupled to the top of the stem; and wherein the inlet is located on the base the channel extends through the stem to the halo.
- Claim: 15. The handle device of claim 14 , wherein the halo is couple to the top of the stem at a hinge that allows the halo to be moved between a raised position and a lowered position.
- Claim: 16. The handle device of claim 13 , further comprising: a stem having a top, wherein the gas emitting portion is connected to the stem at the top of the stem, and wherein the stem has a bottom from which a pair of opposing clip members extend that are configured to clip onto a body of the skin care device.
- Claim: 17. The handle device of claim 13 , wherein the gas emitting portion is a halo that is circular and is configured to at least partially surround the head of the skin care device.
- Claim: 18. The handle device of claim 17 , wherein the at least one gas opening is a plurality of gas openings distributed around the halo.
- Claim: 19. A method of providing oxygen with a skin care device, the skin care device having a head that emits light, the method comprising: providing a handle device having a halo which defines an opening, the handle device having an internal channel and the halo having a plurality of gas openings that are fluidly coupled to the channel, the handle device further having an inlet having a bore that is fluidly coupled to the internal channel; placing the skin care device into the handle device such that the head of the skin care device passes through the opening defined by the halo, and extends in front of the halo; connecting an oxygen source to the inlet; and applying the head of the skin care device to a person while also providing oxygen from the oxygen source to the handle device such that oxygen is emitted through the gas openings of the halo.
- Claim: 20. The method of claim 19 , further comprising: providing the handle device with a base; and wherein coupling the handle device to the skin care device comprises placing a bottom of the skin care device onto a top surface of the base of the handle device.
