摘要

The invention provides a combination of a hand-held hair dryer unit 10 and a support stand 11 therefor which is designed such that the dryer unit can be supported in the stand in a position ready for use with the stand mounted on both a horizontal and a vertical surface. The stand incorporates mounting means for the dryer unit comprising a socket 26 into which the nozzle part 16 of the dryer unit is received. The axis 31 of the socket is angled with respect to the base 29 such that when the stand is mounted with its base on a vertical surface the socket is directed upwardly ready to receive and retain the dryer unit. The device is intended for large-scale users such as hotels, and its design enables it to be fitted in either vertical or horizontal modes without structural modifications.
