Abstract
The invention is directed to an electric shaving apparatus having a housing (1), a drive assembly and a shearing head (2) movable about a pivot axis (Z) and including an arcuate short hair cutter assembly (K) and a long hair cutter assembly (L) associated therewith. The shearing head (2) is arranged to pivot about the pivot axis (Z) intermediate two support lugs (4,5) provided on the housing (1), such that by suitably positioning the pivot axis (Z) the entire shearing area usable for shaving is placed in contact with the skin surface and that the shearing area cannot become disengaged from the skin surface as the directions of sliding movement of the shearing head change.
