Cartridge connector and razor assembly using the same
A razor assembly includes a razor cartridge including at least one shaving blade and a blade housing configured to receive the at least one shaving blade such that the at least one shaving blade extends in a first direction corresponding to a width direction of the razor cartridge. The razor assembly includes a cartridge connector coupled to the razor cartridge such that the razor cartridge is rotatable with respect to the cartridge connector about a rotational axis parallel to the first direction, the cartridge connector including at least two first cantilevers and at least one second cantilever. The razor assembly includes a razor handle coupled to the cartridge connector. The razor cartridge is configured such that when the razor cartridge rotates with respect to the cartridge connector, the two first cantilevers contact one side of the razor cartridge, and the second cantilever does not contact the razor cartridge.
Shaving device with pivotable liquid flow manifold
A handle for a shaving device including a main portion; a nozzle for introducing a liquid into a cavity within the main portion; and at least one liquid conduit portion that is in fluid communication with the cavity. Additionally, the handle also includes a liquid dispensing manifold with at least one liquid inlet that is in fluid communication with the liquid conduit portion, wherein the liquid dispensing manifold includes at least one liquid outlet, and further wherein the at least one liquid outlet is in fluid communication with the at least one liquid inlet. Finally, the handle also preferably includes: a first cartridge connecting mechanism that is configured and arranged to be connected with a handle receiving portion provided on a blade cartridge; and a second cartridge connecting mechanism that is configured and arranged to be connected with a manifold receiving portion provided on a blade cartridge.
HANDLE ASSEMBLY AND CARTRIDGE, AND RAZOR INCLUDING SAME
A cartridge is comprising: at least one blade; a frame supporting the at least one blade so that the at least one blade can be exposed at a front and configured to receive the at least one blade in a longitudinal direction; a first guard member disposed in front of the at least one blade and configured to align hair entering the at least one blade; a second guard member disposed in front of the first guard member; and an opening formed between the first guard member and the second guard member and configured to penetrate the frame in a direction from the front to a rear, wherein a width of the opening in a lateral direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, is greater than a half of a width in a lateral direction defined by all of the at least one blade.
Razor and razor handle with rotational portion
A razor handle for mounting a razor cartridge having at least one razor blade, which cartridge is pivotable about a cartridge pivot axis, is provided. The razor handle includes a grip portion, a cartridge mount portion, at least one biasing element, and a lock mechanism. The cartridge mount portion is pivotally attached to the grip portion and is rotatable about a cartridge mount pivot axis. The cartridge mount pivot axis is substantially parallel to the cartridge pivot axis. The at least one biasing element is configured to apply a biasing force against the cartridge mount portion that biases the cartridge mount portion in the normal first position. The lock mechanism is selectively translatable between a lock position and at least one unlocked position.
Handle for a shaver enabling rotational movement of a cartridge
A handle for a shaver includes a handle body extending along a longitudinal axis of the handle; a connector for attaching a cartridge to the handle rotatable with respect to the handle body around a rotational axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis; and an elastic tongue extending parallel with the longitudinal axis of the handle, when in a neutral position. The connector includes a cartridge end and a tongue end opposite to the cartridge end, the cartridge end of the connector being adapted to engage with the cartridge. The elastic tongue includes a first end and a second end. The first end of the elastic tongue is fixedly attached to or integral with the handle body. As the connector rotates the second end flexes towards a first extreme flexed position or a second extreme flexed position, the flexed elastic tongue biases the connector towards the rest position.
Adjustable shaving blade assembly and razor
A shaving blade assembly (10) comprises a plurality of parallel blades (20) including a first blade (20) and a first rack-and-pinion mechanism (50) with a rack (51) coupled to the first blade (20) to actuate the first blade (20) in a first direction (M) orthogonal to a cutting edge (21) of the first blade (20). The shaving blade assembly (10) may be part of a razor (100,100′) and the position of the first blade (20) may be adjusted in the first direction (M) using a method comprising a step of actuating the first blade (20) in the first direction (M) through the rack-and-pinion mechanism (50).
Shaving razor system
A handle for a personal care system with a first end having a head configured to engage a shaving cartridge, a second end with a partially enclosed ring having a first arm with a first end facing a first end of a second arm to defines a gap having a width. The first and second arms define an undercut region below the gap. A lower surface extends between the partially enclosed ring and the head, wherein the lower surface and the partially enclosed ring are configured to receive a container.
Adjustable head razor
A safety razor is provided having a blade head capable of having an adjustable angle relative to a grasping handle and an adjustability of tension of a pivot to the blade. The blade head is connected by an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the blade head that is substantially enclosed within a conduit formed within the grasping handle. The blade head is angularly adjustable between an angle >95° from a linear centerline of the handle to about 22° from the linear centerline of the handle. A blade head adapter may be further provided to allow for attachment and use of alternate existing blade head cartridges.
Adapter for a handle and a cartridge of different razor systems
An adapter for coupling each of a razor handle and a razor cartridge together is provided. The adapter includes a cartridge engaging portion and a handle engaging portion. The handle engaging portion comprises at least one wall that defines a receptacle for receiving a razor handle and at least one handle protrusion extending from the at least one wall and configured to engage a central recess of a razor handle. The cartridge engaging portion is coupled with the handle engaging portion. The cartridge engaging portion comprises a stem that defines a first recess and a second recess for selectively engaging a first cartridge protrusion and a second cartridge protrusion and a tongue member slidably coupled with the stem and configured to contact a cartridge.
Adjustable Angle Razor
A safety razor comprising a handle and a blade unit having at least one blade, the handle has a handle axis, the blade unit is connected to the handle, the blade unit having at least one blade being substantially non-perpendicular to the handle axis. A safety razor comprising a handle and a blade unit having at least one blade, the handle has a handle axis, the blade unit is connected to the handle for a pivotal movement relative thereto about a perpendicular pivot axis substantially perpendicular to the handle axes, the blade unit with at least one blade can pivot into one or more substantially fixed axes substantially non-perpendicular to handle axis.
