A method of manufacturing a shaving razor. A circuit board is positioned within a handle. A first end of a flexible electrical bridge is connected to the circuit board. A second end of the flexible electrical bridge is connected to an energy emitting device. A loop is formed in the flexible electrical bridge by bending the flexible electrical bridge.

Shaving razor system

A shaving razor system with a handle and a shaving razor cartridge mounted to the handle. A flexible electrical bridge with a portion positioned within the handle extends from the handle to the shaving razor cartridge. The flexible electrical bridge has a loop between the shaving razor cartridge and the handle.

A shaving razor cartridge with a housing having a guard, a cap, and one or more blades located between the guard and the cap. The guard is positioned in front of the one or more blades and the cap is positioned behind the one or more blades. A heat delivering element is mounted to the housing for transferring heat during a shaving stroke. The heat delivering element includes a skin contacting surface and an opposing bottom surface defined by a perimeter wall. An insulating member is positioned within the perimeter wall. The insulating member has a first surface facing the bottom surface of the heat delivering element and a second surface.

Heated shaving razors

A method of controlling transfer of heat to skin during a shaving stroke. A shaving razor system with a heating element is provided. An insulating member for delivering heat to the heating element is provided. A temperature of a first area of the heating element is measured with a first thermal sensor. A temperature of a second area of the heating element is measured with a second thermal sensor. Power to the insulating member is decreased when an average temperature sensed by the thermal sensors is greater than or equal to a first predetermined temperature. Power to the insulating member is decreased when an individual temperature sensed by either of the thermal sensors is greater than or equal to a second predetermined temperature.

Shaving cartridges having thermal sensors

A shaving razor cartridge with a housing having a guard, a cap, and one or more blades located between the guard and the cap. The guard is positioned in front of the one or more blades and the cap is positioned behind said one or more blades. A heat delivering element is mounted to the housing for transferring heat during a shaving stroke. The heat delivering element includes a skin contacting surface and an opposing bottom surface defined by a perimeter wall. An insulating member is positioned within the perimeter wall. The insulating member has a first surface facing the bottom surface of the heat delivering element and a second surface.

A shaving razor system with a heating element for transferring heat during a shaving stroke. The heating element has a skin contacting surface. An insulating member for delivering heat to the heating element has a plurality of spaced apart thermal sensors are mounted to the insulating member and positioned below the skin contacting surface. An electrical circuit is configured to deliver energy to the insulating member. The electrical circuit has a control circuit for temperature regulation. A power source is in communication with the electrical circuit. The thermal sensors measure the temperature of the heating element and are in communication with the control circuit.
