The present invention relates to a hair removal device, in particular a hair trimmer or a shaver or a hair trimmer portion of a shaver, comprising a handle with a motor and a hair removal head, said hair removal head being provided with at least a first hair cutting unit with an outer blade and an inner blade, said inner blade being reciprocally moveable along a first axis relative to the outer blade, wherein said outer blade comprises a row of teeth cooperating with said inner blade for cutting hair. At an outer border first and second skin support surfaces are provided. The skin sides of tooth tips are provided below or on same level as at least one of said first and second skin support surface in a direction towards said handle or said skin sides of said tooth tips are configured such to not cross or extend beyond a connecting line parallel to said second axis between said first and second skin support surfaces.

Hair removal device

The present invention relates to a cutter system for an electric shaver and/or trimmer, comprising a pair of comb-like cutting elements each with at least one row of cutting teeth and movable relative to each other, wherein at least one row of cooperating cutting teeth define a convex or concave skin contact surface when viewed in a cross-sectional plane parallel to a reciprocating direction of the cutting teeth and perpendicular to said skin contact surface.

Electric beard trimmer

The present invention relates to a cutter system for an electric shaver and/or trimmer. The cutter system includes a pair of comb-like cutting elements with cooperating toothed cutting edges and movably supported relative to each other by a support element, wherein lateral ends of at least one of the cutting elements are provided with lateral protection elements having rounded and/or chamfered edge contours for soft skin engagement. The lateral protection element is integrally formed in one part with the cutting element by an end portion of the cutting element bent away from a skin contact surface thereof and enveloping a gap movably receiving the other cutting element and/or enveloping the support element.

The present invention relates to cutter system for an electric shaver and/or trimmer, including a pair of cooperating cutting elements, with a first cutting element and a second cutting element, a motor driving the second cutting element in a movement direction, a support structure supporting the pair of cooperating cutting elements, where a stacked sandwich arrangement is provided by the second cutting element being sandwiched between the first cutting element and the support structure.

The present invention relates to a cutter system for an electric shaver and/or trimmer, comprising a pair of comb-like cutting elements with cooperating toothed cutting edges and movably supported relative to each other by a support element, wherein lateral ends of at least one of the cutting elements are provided with lateral protection elements having rounded and/or chamfered edge contours for soft skin engagement, wherein the lateral protection element is enveloping and covering a gap movably receiving the other cutting element and/or enveloping the support element.

The present invention relates to a cutter system for an electric shaver and/or trimmer, comprising a pair of comb-like cutting elements each with at least one row of cutting teeth and movable relative to each other, wherein one of said cutting elements has thickened and/or rounded tooth tips overhanging the tooth tips of the other cutting element, characterized in that wherein said overhanging rounded tooth tips include a composite thickening which includes an outer shell surrounding an inner core, said shell and said core being made from different materials and wherein said shell is made from metal.

The present invention relates to a cutter system for an electric shaver and/or trimmer, comprising a pair of comb-like cutting elements each with at least one row of cutting teeth and movable relative to each other, wherein one of said cutting elements has thickened and/or rounded tooth tips overhanging the tooth tips of the other cutting element wherein said cutting elements each include two rows of cooperating cutting teeth which are different from each other in terms of shape and/or size and/or position of said overhanging tooth tips.

The present invention relates to a cutter system for an electric shaver and/or trimmer, including a pair of cooperating cutting elements movably supported relative to each other by a support structure, where one of the cutting elements is sandwiched between the other cutting element and the support structure, where the support structure includes at least one spacer defining a gap in which the sandwiched cutting element is movably received, the spacer and thus said gap having a thickness larger than the thickness of the sandwiched cutting element by an amount smaller than 40 &#x3bc;m.

The present invention relates to a cutter system for an electric shaver and/or trimmer, comprising a pair of cooperating cutting elements movably supported relative to each other by a support structure, wherein one of the cutting elements is sandwiched between the other cutting element and the support structure, wherein cutting teeth in a middle section of the row are different from cutting teeth in end sections of the row in terms of at least one of shape, size and position of the tooth tips.

A hair removal device, in particular an electric shaver, comprising a working head attached to a handle for moving the working head along a skin surface, said working head including at least a pair of short hair cutters and at least one trimmer neighboring at least one of said short hair cutters, wherein said short hair cutters and said trimmer are movable relative to said handle under a skin contact pressure.

A hair removal device comprising a working head attached to a handle for moving the working head along a skin surface is provided. The working head includes at least one hair removal tool defining a skin contact contour of the working head, wherein the at least one hair removal tool is movable relative to the handle under a skin contact pressure by a support structure to allow for pivoting of the working head's skin contact contour relative to the handle. The support structure movably supporting the hair removal tool relative to the handle is configured to allow for pivoting of the skin contact contour relative to the handle about an angle of about +/&#x2212;15&#xb0; or more under a contact force of about 0.75 N or less and/or about an angle of about +/&#x2212;20&#xb0; or more under a contact force of about 1.5 N or less.

A device such as an electric shaver includes a working head attached to a handle for moving the working head along a skin surface, wherein at least one working tool is moveable relative to the handle under a skin contact pressure by a support structure to allow for pivoting of the working head's skin contact contour relative to the handle, wherein a biasing device is provided for biasing the working tool.

Personal care device

A shaving unit for a dry shaver includes at least one outer cutter and one under cutter. Driven by a motor, the outer cutter and the under cutter are movable relative to each other in an oscillatory motion. The under cutter and the outer cutter, which are biased into relative engagement by at least one spring, slide along a common contact surface. The spring is arranged in such a way that its biasing force always acts at an angle to the direction of oscillation.

Oscillatory shaver

A shaving head for an electric dry shaver includes a base element for carrying at least three cutter units. Each unit provides an outer cutter and an inner cutter arranged to be moved in sliding contact relative to each other. At least one cutter unit includes a foil-type outer cutter. The shaving head further includes a first trimmer-type cutting unit that has a plurality of slots defined by a plurality of adjacent bar elements featuring cutting edges. The shaving head also includes a second trimmer-type cutting unit having an outer cutter that includes a plurality of teeth featuring cutting edges and spaced apart from each other so as to define a plurality of slits.

Shaving head with multiple shaving units

The invention relates to an electric shaver having a housing pivotably connected to a shaving head, where the shaving head can be locked at several predetermined positions.
