A hot air blower such as a hair dryer utilizes an inner body (11) with an inlet (26), sides and a front outlet end (28). The inner body houses a heater (24), a motor (16) and a fan (22). The motor rotates the fan so that air is drawn in the back inlet (26) end, heated and forced out through the front outlet end (28). A muffler (14) surrounds the inlet (26) and sides of the inner body (11), but does not cover the opening (28) in the outlet. At least one, and preferably two, air openings (32) are disposed on the muffler (14) and are preferably positioned a predetermined distance from the front end, facing the front end. <IMAGE> |
