A hair removal device comprising a working head attached to a handle for moving the working head along a skin surface is provided. The working head includes at least one hair removal tool defining a skin contact contour of the working head, wherein the at least one hair removal tool is movable relative to the handle under a skin contact pressure by a support structure to allow for pivoting of the working head's skin contact contour relative to the handle. The support structure movably supporting the hair removal tool relative to the handle is configured to allow for pivoting of the skin contact contour relative to the handle about an angle of about +/−15° or more under a contact force of about 0.75 N or less and/or about an angle of about +/−20° or more under a contact force of about 1.5 N or less.

The present invention relates to a cutter system for an electric shaver and/or trimmer, comprising a pair of comb-like cutting elements each with at least one row of cutting teeth and movable relative to each other, wherein one of said cutting elements has thickened and/or rounded tooth tips overhanging the tooth tips of the other cutting element wherein said cutting elements each include two rows of cooperating cutting teeth which are different from each other in terms of shape and/or size and/or position of said overhanging tooth tips.

The present invention relates to a cutter system for an electric shaver and/or trimmer, comprising a pair of comb-like cutting elements each with at least one row of cutting teeth and movable relative to each other, wherein at least one row of cooperating cutting teeth define a convex or concave skin contact surface when viewed in a cross-sectional plane parallel to a reciprocating direction of the cutting teeth and perpendicular to said skin contact surface.

There is disclosed a hair cutting device (10) comprising a cutting unit (30), the cutting unit comprising: a blade carrier (32) carrying a cutting blade (33), the cutting blade comprising cutting teeth (34); a guard blade (40) comprising guard teeth (42); wherein the guard blade is movable along the blade carrier relative to the cutting blade within a guard length range between a first guard position corresponding to a shortest hair cutting length of the cutting unit and a second guard position corresponding to the longest hair cutting length of the cutting unit; and wherein the blade carrier comprises a stop (35) configured to prevent movement of the guard blade past the first guard position and outside of the guard length range, thereby preventing the cutting length from being below the shortest cutting length.

A reciprocating-type electric shaver includes an outer blade, an oscillator that is driven to reciprocate by a motor, and an inner blade that reciprocates in cooperation with the oscillator. The oscillator includes attachment portions that are respectively attached to a main body, a movable base, both end sides of which are supported by the attachment portions via support portions having a substantially U-shape, and a cooperation portion that cooperates with the inner blade. In the respective support portions, a portion on a side connected to the attachment portion in a base portion, which is one linear portion of the U-shape, is formed in flexible oscillating pieces. The respective oscillating pieces are formed to be tilted in a direction orthogonal to a reciprocating direction of the movable base so that a lower portion side of the respective oscillating pieces is open outward in the reciprocating direction of the movable base.
