Razor handle with movable members and a benefit delivery system
A handle for a shaving razor in which the handle comprises a frame and a movable member assembly operably coupled to the frame such that the frame is disposed between the movable member assembly and where the movable member assembly portions are configured to move both above and below the frame. The movement can be linear or rotational. The movable member assembly comprises one or more springs. A razor handle includes a rigid member, a first member having one or more movable elements wherein a portion of the first member is connected to a first surface of the rigid member, a second member, the second member coupled to a second surface of the rigid member wherein a benefit delivery assembly is disposed in an area between the rigid member and the second member.
WELDED RAZOR BLADE ASSEMBLIES
A razor blade assembly including: a razor blade; a blade support; and one or more weld areas joining the razor blade to the blade support, each weld area having a length and a width, in which the width is about 0.05 mm to about 0.15 mm. Also provided is a razor blade assembly including: a razor blade; a blade support; and one or more weld areas joining the razor blade to the blade support, each weld area including a depth and a width, in which the depth is about 0.10 mm to about 0.20 mm.
METHODS OF FORMING A RAZOR BLADE ASSEMBLY
A method of joining a razor blade to a blade support to form a razor blade assembly, the method including: directing a laser beam having an adjustable power output at an upper surface of the razor blade; and while advancing the laser beam along the razor blade: a) applying the laser beam at a first power output to the razor blade; b) reducing the first power output of the laser beam to a second power output; and c) applying the laser beam at the second power output to the razor to form a weld area joining the razor blade to the blade support. The weld area may be elongated and may include (i) a ratio of depth:width that is greater than about 2:1, and/or (ii) a ratio of length:width that is greater than about 5:1.
Razor handle with movable members
A handle for a shaving razor in which the handle comprises a frame and a movable member assembly operably coupled to the frame such that the frame is disposed between the movable member assembly and where the movable member assembly upper and lower portions are configured to move both above and below the frame. The movement can be linear or rotational. The movable member assembly comprises one or more springs.
Packaging device and method
A packaging for a product comprising a container including a first body layer and a second body layer connected at a fold, the first and second body layers capable of collapsing to a first position and expanding to a second position, and one or more of said first and second body layers defining a void, and a cover including a first side and a second side, and the first and second body layers are configured to collapse to the first position between the first and second sides of the cover.
Razor cartridges
Replaceable shaving assemblies are disclosed that include a razor cartridge comprising: an elongated housing defining a central open area, and, adjacent each short edge of the housing, a clip-receiving aperture and a clip-receiving channel; a plurality of blades disposed within the open area of the housing, and a pair of clips, each clip having a first leg and a second leg, the first leg extending through the clip-receiving aperture and being bent against a lower surface of the housing, and the second leg being wrapped around the housing and seated in the clip-receiving channel. Shaving systems including such shaving assemblies are also disclosed, as are methods of using such shaving systems and methods of manufacturing these cartridges.
Multi-blade shaving razor
A razor head for shaving is provided. The razor head includes a plurality of blades movably mounted within a support and a plurality of resilient members, wherein each blades of the plurality of blades is biased toward a shaving plane, at least in part, by at least one of the plurality of resilient members, and wherein at least one of the plurality of blades is biased toward the shaving plane with a first force that is greater than a second force biasing another of the plurality of blades toward the shaving plane.
Polymeric cutting edge structures and method of manufacturing polymeric cutting edge structures
A functional polymeric cutting edge structure and methods for manufacturing cutting edge structures using polymeric materials are provided. A razor blade for use in a razor cartridge or a blade box for assembly in a razor cartridge frame may be formed using the present invention.
Processing head for a hair cutting appliance and combined blade unit
A processing head for a hair cutting appliance, the processing head comprising a powered blade set comprising a stationary blade and a movable blade, wherein the movable blade is arranged to be moved with respect to the stationary blade to cut hair between teeth of the movable blade and teeth of the stationary blade, a linkage unit supporting the powered blade set, wherein the linkage unit enables a contour following pivoting movement of the powered blade set when the appliance is operated to cut hair, and a razor cartridge that is arranged to be attached to the powered blade set in such a way that the powered blade set and the razor cartridge are pivotably supported by the linkage unit.
