Abstract
An epilating device for extracting hairs out of a user's skin, including an epilating system having a plurality of hair-clamping elements arranged adjacent to each other and rotatable relative to a housing about an axis of rotation, a compression member arranged to exert a compression force on the epilating system along at least a compression line which extends parallel to a main direction of extension of the axis of rotation, and a drive system arranged to rotate the hair-clamping elements about the axis of rotation. The hair-clamping elements are arranged to cooperate in pairs. During rotation of the epilating system, the paired hair-clamping elements are tiltable relative to each other, under influence of said compression force about at least one tilting axis from a hair-catching position and about only one tilting axis from a first hair-clamping position.
