Abstract

A polish curing assembly for curing and hardening nail polish includes a stand is that may be rolled along a support surface. A light emitting unit is coupled to the stand and the light emitting unit is positionable above a person'"'"'s hand whose nails have been polished. The light emitting unit emits electromagnetic radiation when the light emitting unit is turned on to cure polish on the nails.

Claims

1. A polish curing assembly being configured to emit light on to nail polish to cure the nail polish, said assembly comprising:

a stand being configured to be rolled along a support surface, said stand comprises a base having a top side and a bottom side; and

a light emitting unit being coupled to said stand wherein said light emitting unit is configured to be positioned above a person'"'"'s hand whose nails have been polished, said light emitting unit emitting electromagnetic radiation when said light emitting unit is turned on wherein said light emitting unit is configured to cure polish on the nails; and

a tube being coupled to and extending upwardly from said top side, said tube having an outer wall and a distal end with respect to said top side, said outer wall having a slot extending into an interior of said tube, said slot extending downwardly from said distal end.

2. The assembly according to claim 1, further comprising a plurality of rollers, each of said rollers being coupled to said bottom side of said base wherein each of said rollers is configured to roll along the support surface.

3. The assembly according to claim 1, further comprising a collar being slidably positioned around said tube.

4. The assembly according to claim 3, further comprising a fastener extending through said collar and frictionally engaging said outer wall of said tube to retain said collar at a selected height on said tube.

5. The assembly according to claim 3, further comprising an arm being coupled to and extending laterally away from said collar, said arm being comprised of a bendable material, said arm having a distal end with respect to said collar.

6. A polish curing assembly being configured to emit light on to nail polish to cure the nail polish, said assembly comprising:

a stand being configured to be rolled along a support surface; and

a light emitting unit being coupled to said stand wherein said light emitting unit is configured to be positioned above a person'"'"'s hand whose nails have been polished, said light emitting unit emitting electromagnetic radiation when said light emitting unit is turned on wherein said light emitting unit is configured to cure polish on the nails;

said stand including an arm having a distal end and a base; and

said light emitter unit comprising a bowl having an outer wall and an opening therein, said outer wall being coupled to said distal end of said arm having said opening being directed downwardly towards said base.

7. The assembly according to claim 6, further comprising a light emitter being positioned within said bowl wherein said light emitter is configured to emit light outwardly through said opening in said bowl.

8. The assembly according to claim 7, further comprising a conductor being electrically coupled to said light emitter, said conductor extending through said arm and said slot in said tube.

9. The assembly according to claim 8, further comprising a power supply being coupled to said base, said conductor being electrically coupled to said power supply such that said power supply is an electrical communication with said light emitter.

10. The assembly according to claim 9, wherein said power supply comprises a housing being coupled to a top side of said base.

11. The assembly according to claim 10, further comprising at least one battery being positioned within said housing, said at least one battery being electrically coupled to said conductor.

12. The assembly according to claim 11, further comprising a button being coupled to said housing, said button being electrically coupled said conductor to turn said light emitter on and off.

13. The assembly according to claim 12, further comprising a charge port being coupled to said housing, said charge port being electrically coupled to said at least one battery, said charge port being configured to be electrically coupled to a power source for charging said at least one battery.

14. A polish curing assembly being configured to emit light on to nail polish to cure the nail polish, said assembly comprising:

a stand being configured to be rolled along a support surface, said stand comprising;

a base having a top side and a bottom side;

a plurality of rollers, each of said rollers being coupled to said bottom side of said base wherein each of said rollers is configured to roll along the support surface;

a tube being coupled to and extending upwardly from said top side, said tube having an outer wall and a distal end with respect to said top side, said outer wall having a slot extending into an interior of said tube, said slot extending downwardly from said distal end;

a collar being slidably positioned around said tube;

a fastener extending through said collar and frictionally engaging said outer wall of said tube to retain said collar at a selected height on said tube;

an arm being coupled to and extending laterally away from said collar, said arm being comprised of a bendable material, said arm having a distal end with respect to said collar; and

a light emitting unit being coupled to said stand wherein said light emitting unit is configured to be positioned above a person'"'"'s hand whose nails have been polished, said light emitting unit emitting electromagnetic radiation when said light emitting unit is turned on wherein said light emitting unit is configured to cure polish on the nails, said light emitting unit comprising;

a bowl having an outer wall and an opening therein, said outer wall being coupled to said distal end of said arm having said opening being directed downwardly towards said base;

a light emitter being positioned within said bowl wherein said light emitter is configured to emit light outwardly through said opening in said bowl;

a conductor being electrically coupled to said light emitter, said conductor extending through said arm and said slot in said tube; and

a power supply being coupled to said base, said conductor being electrically coupled to said power supply such that said power supply is an electrical communication with said light emitter, said power supply comprising;

a housing being coupled to said top side of said base;

at least one battery being positioned within said housing, said at least one battery being electrically coupled to said conductor;

a button being coupled to said housing, said button being electrically coupled said conductor to turn said light emitter on and off; and

a charge port being coupled to said housing, said charge port being electrically coupled to said at least one battery, said charge port being configured to be electrically coupled to a power source for charging said at least one battery.
