A razor handle that includes an elongated hollow housing having an opening provided on the front end, a razor head carrier which is slidably mounted in the recess between a first non-shaving position in which the razor head carrier is retracted and completely located inside the recess, a second shaving position, and a sliding mechanism for moving the razor head carrier. The razor handle further includes a pivotally mounted movable flap having a closed position in which the flap closes the opening, and an open position in which the flap is fully open and gives way to the razor head carrier, the movable flap being driven by a linkage.

A vibrating wet shaver that includes a hollow handle, a shaving head borne by the handle, an electric vibrator fixed to the handle for transmitting vibrations to the shaving head through the handle, and a control circuit adapted to adjust a vibration frequency generated by the electric vibrator.

Vibrating wet shaver

A razor handle including an elongated handle body integral with a flexible yoke for receiving and releasably retaining a shaving cartridge. The razor handle also includes a slide element cooperating with the yoke and connected to the handle body, the slide element being movable relative to the handle body between a rest position, in which the yoke is open and can releasably retain a shaving cartridge received in the yoke, and a release position, in which the yoke is flexed and can receive a shaving cartridge or release a shaving cartridge received in the yoke. The razor handle further includes a spring member to return the slide element from the release position to the rest position, where a stop element prevents the yoke from inadvertently flexing when the slide element is in the rest position.

Razor handles to be releasably connected to shaving cartridges and razors including such handles

A shaving blade unit having a housing that includes a primary cap, a primary guard, an upper face, and a rear face. The shaving blade unit also includes a first primary blade located between the primary cap and the primary guard and extending at said the upper face, a first spacer stacked with the first primary blade, and a trimming blade extending at the rear face of the housing where the trimming blade is unreleasably fixed to the first spacer.

Shaving blade unit and shaver having such a blade unit

A shaving blade unit having a housing that includes a primary cap, a primary guard, an upper face, and a rear face. The shaving blade unit also includes at least one primary blade located between the primary cap and the primary guard and extending at the upper face, at least one trimming blade extending at the rear face of the housing, and a trimming blade protector that is able to selectively cover and uncover at least the at least one trimming blade. The trimming blade protector is movably mounted on the housing between a closed position where it covers the at least one trimming blade and an open position where the at least one trimming blade is usable.

A razor blade unit having a frame and blades movably mounted in the frame, each blade being elastically biased toward a rest position where the upper face of each blade bears against upper stop portions of the frame, the upper face of each blade being parallel to the corresponding upper stop portions.

Razor blade unit

A razor that includes an elongated hollow handle having a front end and a back end. The razor also includes a first razor head and a second razor head, which are both mounted on a support the support being mounted in the handle and slideable along the length of the handle between a first use position and a second use position. The first use position allows the first razor head to project outward from the front end of the handle to allow shaving, while the second razor head is retracted within the handle; the second use position allows the second razor head to project outward from the back end of the handle to allow shaving, while the first razor head is retracted within the handle. The use positions are preferably attained by a manually operable actuator for moving the razor head from one position to the other.

Razor having two slideable shaving heads

A razor that includes a handle having an axis, a first shaver head having one or more blades, mounted at a front end of the handle and a second shaver head mounted on a support mounted at a back end of the handle and pivotable with respect to the support between an open position and a closed position. In the open position, the support projects outward from the back end of the handle to allow shaving with the second shaver head and in the closed position, the support is retracted within the handle.

Razor head having two shaving heads

A method of producing a razor head, and razor head itself, having one or more blades, a first plastic member and a second plastic member, that includes the step of laser welding the first plastic member to the second plastic member.

Razor head having laser welded parts and method of producing thereof

A razor handle having a handle first end adjacent a razor head, a handle second end opposite the handle first end, an upper surface, a lower surface, and a handle length extending from the handle first end to the handle second end. The razor handle includes a rigid plastic base portion and a compressible portion. A plurality of ribs formed of the rigid plastic base portion and the compressible portion are included on the upper surface of the handle at the handle first end, each rib of the plurality of ribs having a rib first end, a rib second end, a center disposed at approximately the midpoint between the rib first and second ends, and a rib length extending from the rib first end to the rib second end. In addition, the center of each of the plurality or ribs is longitudinally aligned along the handle length.

Ergonomic razor handle provided with an improved grip

A method of producing a razor head that includes the steps of providing a guard member having a lower surface and including securing pins protruding from the lower surface, securing a blade unit onto the guard member, providing a cap member, and securing the cap member onto the guard member, independently of the blade unit. A razor head having such features is also provided.

Method of producing a razor head

A razor handle having a handle body and a lock/release mechanism that includes two arms, each having a bearing for pivotally connecting a shaving head, the arms extending substantially symmetrically on both sides of a medial axis, the arms being elastically biased opposite to one another toward a head locking position wherein the bearings are adapted to pivotally bear the shaving head, and the arms being movable toward one another into a head release position wherein the bearings are adapted to release the shaving head. The razor handle also includes a plunger which is movable between the two arms, substantially parallel to the medial axis, and a spring biasing the plunger away from the handle body, such that the plunger is adapted to cooperate with a cam surface belonging to the shaving head for biasing the shaving head toward a rest position.
