Abstract
By providing at least three separate and independent foil members each of which cooperate with a separate and independent cutting blade system which is biased into engagement with the foil member and freely flexible in a plurality of directions, a substantially improved electric dry shaver is obtained. In the present invention, a unique cutting blade support assembly is provided which assures free flexible movement of the cutting blades, while also continuously and positively biasingly maintaining the cutting blades in contact with the foil member. In addition, the multiple foil construction of this invention provides a system wherein foil members having different physical characteristics are mountable to the shaver, thereby providing substantially enhanced cutting capabilities and more universal applicability to unusual or mixed shaving conditions.
