An adaptor is provided for a shaving cartridge. The adaptor includes a frame extending along a longitudinal axis and a shaving aid coupled with the frame. The adaptor is configured to be reversibly mountable on a shaving cartridge perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.

Shaving aid adaptor for a shaving cartridge

An adaptor for a shaving cartridge is provided. The adaptor is provided with a frame, a first shaving aid, and a second shaving aid. The frame includes a first wall and an opposite second wall. The first wall and the second wall extend along and define a longitudinal axis. The side walls extend from the first wall to the second wall, where the first wall has a first opening. The first and second shaving aids are releasably connected, respectively, to the first and second side walls of the frame. The first and second shaving aids are mounted on the shaving cartridge in a first position by being moved in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. Cutting edges of shaving blades disposed in the shaving cartridge are uncovered and accessible through the first opening formed in the first wall when the adaptor is mounted on the shaving cartridge.

An integrally formed rigid razor blade is provided. The razor blade includes a cutting edge portion extending along a cutting edge portion axis and having a cutting edge at one end, a base portion extending along a base portion axis, and a bent portion intermediate the cutting edge portion and the base portion. The bent portion has an average radius of curvature of between 0.4 millimeters and 1.00 millimeters. The cutting edge portion has a cantilever dimension which is a constant distance of between 1.1 millimeters and 1.8 millimeters when measured from the cutting edge portion to the base portion axis.

Razor blade, razor head, and method of manufacture

A shaving blade cartridge including a housing having a top side, a bottom side and two longitudinal sides. A cutting element is mounted in the housing between the longitudinal sides, and is retained in the housing by a retainer. The retainer includes an internal surface which extends in a direction toward the cutting element. The internal surface is provided with a non-smooth pattern that cooperates with the cutting element. The shaving blade cartridge including the retainer having an internal surface provided with a non-smooth pattern is configured to be connected to a handle of a shaver.

Shaving blade cartridge and a shaver comprising such shaving blade cartridge

An integrally formed rigid razor blade made of martensitic stainless steel includes a cutting edge portion, a base portion, and a bent portion. The cutting edge portion extends along a cutting edge portion axis and has a cutting edge at one end. The base portion extends along a base portion axis. The bent portion is intermediate the cutting edge portion and the base portion. The blade has a concave face and an opposed convex face. An average radius of curvature of the concave face of the bent portion is between 0.4 millimeters and 1 millimeter.

An adaptor for a shaving cartridge is provided. The adaptor is provided with at least one shaving aid. The adaptor is slidably mountable on a shaving cartridge having one or more shaving blades, each of shaving blades being provided with a cutting edge.

An integrally formed rigid razor blade has, in cross-section transverse to a longitudinal axis, a cutting edge portion, a base portion, and a bent portion. The cutting edge portion extends along a cutting edge portion axis and has a cutting edge at one end. The base portion extends along a base portion axis and has a rear edge at one end. The bent portion is intermediate the cutting edge portion and the base portion. The rear edge of the base portion is serrated along the longitudinal axis. The serrations have a height of between 0.13 millimeters and 0.32 millimeters.

A razor head includes a housing and at least one integrally formed rigid razor blade. The housing has a top face defining a shaving window and an opposed stopping face. The razor blades are freely mounted in the housing and have a cutting edge portion and a guided portion. A bent portion is intermediate the cutting edge portion and the guided portion. A cantilever dimension, measured as the distance between the cutting edge and a guided portion axis, is between 1.1 millimeters and 1.8 millimeters. The guided portion cooperates with a guide so that each blade is independently translatable with respect to the housing along a sliding direction parallel to the guided portion axis under the effect of shaving forces applied to the blade during shaving.

An integrally formed rigid razor blade made of martensitic stainless steel includes a cutting edge portion, a base portion, and a bent portion. The cutting edge portion extends along a cutting edge portion axis and has a cutting edge at one end. The base portion extends along a base portion axis. The bent portion is intermediate the cutting edge portion and the base portion. The blade has a concave face and an opposed convex face. An average radius of curvature of the concave face of the bent portion is between 0.5 millimeters and 1 millimeters.

The cutting edge portion extends along a cutting edge portion axis and has a cutting edge at one end. The base portion extends along a base portion axis. The bent portion is intermediate the cutting edge portion and the base portion. The blade has a concave face and an opposed convex face. An average radius of curvature of the concave face of the bent portion is between 0.5 millimeters to 0.57 millimeters.

A shaving blade cartridge includes a housing extending along a longitudinal axis, having a top side, a bottom side opposite to the top side and two longitudinal sides. The two longitudinal sides extend longitudinally along the longitudinal axis between the top and bottom sides. The housing is provided with at least one protrusion. The shaving blade cartridge further includes a cutting blade mounted in the housing between the longitudinal sides, and having a cutting edge extending along the longitudinal axis, and a clip retaining the cutting blade in the housing and having at least one leg. The leg of the clip has a recess, and the recess cooperates with the protrusion of the housing.

Shaving blade cartridge

An adaptor for a shaving cartridge, where the adaptor is provided with at least one shaving aid, and wherein the adaptor is slidably mountable on a shaving cartridge having one or more shaving blades, each of shaving blades being provided with a cutting edge.

A shaver that includes a handle with an elongated handgrip portion and a mounting portion, and a shaver head attached to the mounting portion. A removable cartridge is attached to the shaver head through a rotating lock. The rotating lock is adapted to rotate about an axis parallel to the length of the blades of the cartridge, thus defining a neutral position and a rotated position. The rotating lock in the neutral position attaches the cartridge to the shaver head, and the rotating lock in the rotated position releases the cartridge from the shaver head.

Shaver

An integrally formed rigid razor blade having a body with a cutting edge portion extending about a cutting edge portion plane, and having a cutting edge at one end, a base portion extending along a base portion plane, a bent portion intermediate the cutting edge portion and the base portion. The body is made of martensitic stainless steel that includes mainly iron and between 0.62% and 0.75% of carbon in weight.
