A hair removal apparatus is described having a trimmer (), whereby the trimmer () has at least two cutting parts () each having rows of teeth drivable individually relative to one another, and having at least one wet shaver unit (), which has at least one sharp-edged razor blade (). The wet shaver unit () is arranged on a carrying element () that is guided movably on the housing (). The carrying element is adjustable by the user in at least two different positions through a corresponding switching movement. The first position is a storage position of the wet shaver unit and the second position allows simultaneous removal of hair by the trimmer () which is leading in the direction of use (P) and the trailing wet shaver unit ().

Hair removal apparatus

The invention relates to a hair removal device such as for example an electric shaver or a wet shaver, comprising a main device element () which accounts for the major portion of the overall weight, and a separate element () which can be coupled therewith and which comprises for example a wet-shave blade cartridge (). The separate element () is connected to the main device element () via a coupling (). Said coupling () is designed to open under the effect of forces that exceed a minimum force. When the hair removal device () is dropped, the separate element () is not damaged despite the comparatively greater weight of the hair removal device.

Hair removal device

The invention relates to a hair removal apparatus () having a base body () and a slide (), which is mounted thereon to be movable (displaceably). At least one wet shaver unit () comprising a razor blade, such as a blade cartridge for wet shaving, is mounted on the slide. Due to the mobility of the slide (), this wet shaver unit () is protected from damage in the event of impact of the hair removal apparatus, e.g., in a fall to the floor. Certain target positions of the slide () can be secured with a slip clutch, such that they become unlocked on exceeding a minimum force that is acting and thereby release a movement of the slide.
