A shaver comprising a handle with an elongated handgrip portion and a mounting portion, a shaver head attached to the mounting portion, the shaver head having a back structure. A removable cartridge is attached to the shaver head through an elastic member provided on the back structure of the shaver head.

A razor cartridge comprising a housing extending longitudinally along a longitudinal axis, wherein the housing comprises a leading longitudinal side, a trailing longitudinal side, and a cutting member mounting portion in-between the leading and trailing longitudinal sides for accommodating a plurality of cutting members; and a plurality of cutting members disposed at least partially in the cutting member mounting portion, wherein each cutting member is arranged between a leading longitudinal side and a trailing longitudinal side of the razor cartridge in a shaving direction of the razor cartridge, wherein one or more of the cutting members comprises a blade support having a blade mounting portion, and a blade attached to the blade mounting portion.

A shaving razor system with a handle having a first end with a top surface defining recessed surface between a pair of guide surfaces. A shaving razor cartridge is removably mounted to the first end of the handle. The shaving razor cartridge includes a housing and a blade carrier assembly. The blade carrier assembly has a blade carrier with a blade platform at a first end, a tab extending from the blade platform to a second end. The tab has a crest between a pair of angled surfaces of the tab. A blade is mounted to the blade platform. The blade has a cutting edge. The tab flexes between a first position and a second position.

A shaving razor cartridge with a housing having a bottom surface with a pair of guide members. A blade carrier has a first end with a blade platform with a tab extending from the blade platform to a second end. A blade is mounted to the blade platform. The blade platform is mounted to the bottom surface with the tab being unsupported and positioned between the pair of guides members.

A method of manufacturing a blade carrier assembly. A sheet of metal having a thickness of 0.1 mm to 1 mm is provided. The sheet of metal is cut to form a blade carrier blank having a blade platform and a tab extending from the blade platform. The tab is coined to form a crest. At least one window is cut into the sheet of metal. The blade carrier blank is bent along the at least one window to form an upper portion and a lower portion. A blade is mounted to the lower portion. The blade is clamped by bending the upper portion toward the lower portion until the blade is in contact with both the upper portion and the lower portion.

In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides a razor assembly including a razor cartridge, razor handle, and recovering force-providing unit. The razor cartridge includes a shaving blade having a cutting edge and a blade housing receiving the shaving blade longitudinally. The razor handle is connected to the razor cartridge rotatably about a first rotational axis parallel to longitudinal direction within a rotation range. The recovering force-providing unit provides the razor cartridge rotated about the first rotational axis from a rest position with recovering force returning the razor cartridge to the rest position. The rotation range includes a first pivot section between the rest position and first angle, and a second pivot section between the first angle and a greater second angle. The recovering force increases as the razor cartridge rotates with an increasing rotational angle, at an increasing rate that differs between the first and second pivot sections.

The present disclosure relates to a razor having a coupling structure of a razor blade cartridge and a handle, including a razor blade cartridge including at least one razor blade, a blade housing in which the at least one razor blade is accommodated, a cartridge frame coupled to the blade housing and configured to secure the at least one razor blade to the blade housing; and a handle coupled to a rear of the razor blade cartridge, wherein a first hook is formed at a rear of the blade housing; a second hook is formed at a rear of the cartridge frame; and the handle is configured to be engaged with the first hook and the second hook such that the handle is coupled to the rear of the razor blade cartridge.

A shaving razor cartridge with a housing having a top surface and a bottom surface. A guard is at the front of the housing. A cap is at a rear of the housing. At least one blade is mounted to the housing between the guard and the cap. The housing has a wall defining an opening extending from the top surface to the bottom surface that is configured to receive a portion of a handle. The wall having a pair of arms each with a distal end extending toward each other defining a gap. The bridge is a thermo-plastic elastomer that is different than a polymeric material of the housing.

The present invention describes a novel spring mechanism for a razor. In the razor, the spring member may be disposed in a movable member assembly, portions of which may be used for ejection or pivoting. The spring may be fully encompassed within the assembly and be placed within supporting structures therein. The spring is a loop-shaped element having overlapping end portions with free distal ends. Alternately, the spring member is tear drop shaped loop shape with distal ends that are spaced apart. The spring may be disposed within a first and/or second movable member such as an eject button or a pivot member. A retarding structure on the spring provides a retarding force which is based on the interaction of the retarding structure with a protrusion on an assembly portion to keep the spring orientation intact. The spring is desirably comprised of stainless steel and is a flat wire.

An integral razor blade which is thin and has improved strength by shaping a geometrical structure of the razor blade and a razor cartridge using the same. The razor blade includes a base portion, a bent portion extending in a bent manner from one end of the base portion, and an edge portion extending from one end of the bent portion, a cutting edge being formed at one end of the edge portion. A first separation distance X between a straight line extending in a longitudinal direction from a front surface of the base portion and an end point of the cutting edge ranges from 0.3 mm to 1.0 mm.
