A razor is provided, including a handle to be gripped by a user, a power generation unit disposed in the handle and configured to provide rotational power, a drive transmission unit coupled to the power generation unit and configured to be rotated by the rotational power, a cartridge including a blade housing on which one or more blades are seated, and a drive receiving unit formed at one side of the cartridge and configured to be in contact with the drive transmission unit to cause the blade housing to perform a linear movement in response to rotation of the drive transmission unit, wherein the cartridge is coupled to the handle such that the cartridge is pivotable about a pivot axis perpendicular to a rotational axis of the power generation unit, and wherein the pivot axis intersects the drive transmission unit.

A handle. The handle can include a main body and a pivoting head pivotally coupled with the main body about a pivot axis. The pivoting head can have a substantially trapezoidal prism shape and can include a base member and a cover member that overlies the base member in a mating relationship. The cover member can have a face defining at least one exterior opening and the pivoting head can have an interior compartment comprising an electrical component.

A shaving device comprising a head assembly including a support member having at least one support member magnet and a blade cartridge having at least one face with at least one razor blade and configured to be rotatably coupled to the support member about a pivot axis. The blade cartridge includes at least one blade cartridge magnet having a pole aligned with a pole of the support member magnet to generate a magnetic force that urges the blade cartridge about the pivot axis towards an initial starting position (ISP), wherein the blade cartridge is further configured to rotate about the pivot axis away from the ISP upon application of an external force sufficient to overcome the magnetic force between the support member magnet and the blade cartridge magnet.

A connector-housing assembly for an electrically operated personal-care implement comprises a housing defining an inner cavity and a connector for repeatably attaching and detaching a head to and from the assembly. The connector has an overall length extension (Lc) extending along a longitudinal connector axis (Xc), the overall length extension (Lc) being composed of a sub-length (Li) extending within the inner cavity of the housing, and a sub-length (Lo) extending outside of the housing, wherein a ratio (Rc) of the length (Li) extending within the inner cavity of the housing to the length (Lo) extending outside of the housing is from about 1.0 to 1.7, preferably from about 1.0 to about 1.5.

A handle for a wet shaver, having a handle body adapted to be held by a user and a head supporting portion adapted to support a shaver head. The handle body had a cell structure formed by juxtaposed hollow cells separated by solid walls.

A saw blade includes a main body having a first surface, a second surface on an opposite side of the main body from the first surface, a proximal edge portion, a distal edge portion, and first and second side portions extending between the proximal and distal edge portions. The proximal edge portion is configured to be coupled to a rotatable hub such that the saw blade is held in a curved shape with the first surface defining an outer radius when the saw blade is coupled to the rotatable hub. The distal edge portion includes a plurality of cutting teeth, and the second surface includes a cutting structure configured such that a radius of an arc swept by the cutting structure when the saw blade is rotated is substantially equal to the outer radius of the first surface.

A shaving head that doubles as breaking mechanism to break a safety razor blade into two pieces to form a 2-blade shaving razor. The shaving head includes a front component having a retention guide, a first position stop and a second position stop at a distance offset from the first position stop. The shaving head further includes a back component having a blade slot configured to receive a first blade portion and a second blade portion formed from breaking a double-edge safety razor blade such that the first blade portion has a different width compared to the second blade portion. The retention guide is configured to retain the first blade portion and the second blade portion in the blade slot responsive to the retention guide being at least partially inserted into the blade slot. The sharp shaving edges once installed form a shaving angle between 5 and 30 degrees, where the shaving angle is determined by where the blade is broken.

A single-blade razor apparatus and methods are for manufacturing the same. A razor apparatus includes a handle and a head pivotably mounted on the handle. The head includes a rear side including an aperture for receiving a single blade, as well as a front side through which a cutting edge of the blade is exposed during use. An upper portion and a lower portion of the head form the aperture. The lower portion physically interfaces with the upper portion so that a front region of the upper portion is physically supported by the lower portion. In a particular implementation, the lower portion includes several protruding latches proximate the front side of the head, which respectively mate with recesses formed in the upper portion. Alternatively, the latches are formed in the upper portion and respectively mate with recesses formed in the lower portion.

A razor assembly includes a razor cartridge comprising at least one shaving blade, and a blade housing configured to receive the at least one shaving blade in a first direction; 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; and a razor handle, wherein the cartridge connector further comprises: at least two first cantilevers configured to provide a recovering force to the razor cartridge to restore the razor cartridge to a rest position; at least one second cantilever coupled to at least a part of the razor handle; and an upper wall covering the at least one second cantilever, wherein the at least one second cantilever is not exposed to an outside by the upper wall when viewed from a bottom side of the blade housing.

A handle. The handle can have a main body and a first substantially flat arm having a first distal end and a first proximal end defining a first arm opening can be coupled to a first location of the main body. A second substantially flat arm having a second distal end and a second proximal end defining a second arm opening, can be coupled to a second location of the main body. The first and second distal ends can be in spaced relationship and have pivotally coupled therebetween a pivoting head having a trapezoidal prism shape.
