Nail lamp
A nail lamp is configured to cure light-curable nail product on a user's nails. The lamp includes an array of discrete light sources with different light wavelength profiles. The different wavelength profiles are configured to, in combination, cure a light-curable nail product. A space is disposed beneath the array and is sized to accommodate therein the nails of an appendage of a user so as to expose the user's nails to light from the array. The space is substantially open to the ambient environment to the front, rear, left, right, and top of the space, thereby providing an open architecture.
1. A nail lamp comprising: A first array of discrete light sources configured to cure one or more light-curable nail products, a space disposed beneath the array, the space being sized to accommodate at least one hand or one foot of a user wherein, the first array of discrete light sources being spaced in an evenly distributed pattern to overlay and irradiate at least 4 nails of the at least one hand or one foot of the a user and wherein, the array of discrete light sources includes multiple LED light source shaving a peak electromagnetic emission at a first wavelength and multiple LED light sources having a peak electromagnetic emission at a second wavelength where said first wavelength and said second wavelength are in a wavelength from about 340 nm to about 475 nm and differ by at least 5 nm, wherein a light of the first wavelength in combination with a light of the second wavelength cures at least one of the light-curable nail products more rapidly and at a lower overall light intensity than the light of only the first wavelength or the light of only the second wavelength.
2. The nail lamp of claim 1 wherein the evenly distributed pattern is a U shaped pattern.
3. The nail lamp of claim 1 wherein the evenly distributed pattern is a V shaped pattern.
4. The nail lamp of claim 1 comprising a second array of discrete light sources configured to cure light-curable nail products wherein, said second array of discrete light sources being spaced in an evenly distributed pattern to irradiate the thumb of a user and being oriented at an angle ranging from 45 degrees to 90 degrees relative to the first array of discrete light sources and wherein′ said second array of discrete light sources includes multiple LED light sources having a peak electromagnetic emission at a first wavelength and multiple LED light sources having a peak electromagnetic emission at a second wavelength where said first wavelength and said second wavelength differ by at least 5 nm.
5. The nail lamp of claim 1 , wherein: the first wavelength is in a range from about 360 nm to about 380 nm, and the second wavelength is in a range from about 385 nm to about 425 nm.
6. The nail lamp of claim 1 , wherein: the first wavelength is in a range from about 340 nm to about 385 nm, and the second wavelength is in a range from about 390 nm to about 430 nm.
7. The nail lamp of claim 1 , wherein: the first wavelength is in a range from about 340 nm to about 400 nm, and the second wavelength is in a range from about 410 nm to about 475 nm.
8. The nail lamp of claim 1 , wherein: the first wavelength is in a range from about 360 nm to about 385 nm, and the second wavelength is in a range from about 390 nm to about 410 nm.
9. The nail lamp of claim 1 , wherein: the first wavelength is about 365 nm, and the second wavelength is about 405 nm.
10. The nail lamp of claim 1 , wherein: the first wavelength is about 385 nm, and the second wavelength is about 405 nm.
