A depilating device (1) comprises a depilating body (10) which is rotatable about a rotation axis (R) extending in a longitudinal direction (L) with respect to the depilating body (10) and which is provided with at least one hair-catching space (11). The depilating device (1) further comprises an actuating mechanism (30) configured to act on the depilating body (10) so as to cause compression and extension of the depilating body (10) in the longitudinal direction (L) during rotational movement of the depilating body (10) about the rotation axis (R), for the purpose of varying the size of the hair-catching space (11) of the depilating body (10) in the longitudinal direction (L), wherein the actuating mechanism (30) includes a force-inducing member (31) which is compressible and extensible in the longitudinal direction (L) and which has a function in determining the level of a hair-clamping force in the depilating body (10).

The present disclosure is concerned with a personal care device having a head portion having a driven treatment head, a handle portion having a drive unit for providing a motion having a motion direction, and a drive train extending between the drive unit and the driven treatment head for transmitting the motion from the drive unit to the driven treatment head, the drive train having a separable coupling. The separable coupling has a first coupling part having a first coupling element, a second coupling part having a second coupling element, the first and the second coupling elements being separably engaged with each other, and a resilient element biasing the first coupling element and the second coupling element against each other so that the first and second coupling elements are engaged in a gap-free manner along the motion direction.

The present disclosure is concerned with epilator having an epilator head that has a head housing and a skin contacting unit arranged for being pivotable with respect to the head housing around a first axis and a handle arranged for being held by a user's hand, wherein the epilator head is pivotably connected with the handle and is arranged for being pivotable with respect to the handle around a second axis, the first axis and the second axis being essentially perpendicular to each other and the first axis and the second axis have a distance to each other and wherein the epilator head comprises a neck portion that is connected with the handle to establish a separable but otherwise fixed connection and the head housing comprises a cylindrically or spherically shaped neck wall, which neck wall is arranged to immerse into a hollow defined by the neck portion when the head housing pivots around the second axis.

A motor and a personal-care device having the motor. The motor has a motor carrier made at least partially from a sheet metal material, a movable motor part, and a spring element that couples the movable motor part with the motor carrier. The sheet metal material comprises at least one coupling area where the sheet metal material is folded so that its two layers are facing each other while each of the two layers comprises a slot, the slots being aligned with one another. A connection extension of the spring element extends through the aligned slots.

The invention relates to an improved hair removal device for removing body hair on a body surface, comprising a hand-held housing, an electric motor arranged in the housing, operating means for operating the motor and a flexible, cylindrically shaped hair removal element which is connected rotatably at a first end to a protruding first end of the housing and is connected at a second end to a driven shaft of the motor, and a curved first section of the hair removal element is provided with a plurality of slits in its outer surface, wherein during rotation of the hair removal element and the movement of the first section against the surface the slits are open on the convex side of the first section in order to receive the hairs in the slits and are closed on the concave side of the first section in order to capture and pluck the hairs out of the surface.

The present disclosure is concerned with epilator having an epilator head that has a head housing and a skin contacting unit arranged for being pivotable with respect to the head housing around a first axis and a handle arranged for being held by a user's hand, wherein the epilator head is pivotably connected with the handle and is arranged for being pivotable with respect to the handle around a second axis, the first axis and the second axis being essentially perpendicular to each other and the first axis and the second axis have a distance to each other and wherein the epilator head comprises a neck portion that is connected with the handle to establish a separable but otherwise fixed connection and the head housing comprises a cylindrically or spherically shaped neck wall, which neck wall is arranged to immerse into a hollow defined by the neck portion when the head housing pivots around the second axis.
