DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0022] The present invention will be further illustrated below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

Embodiment 1

[0023] A reciprocating electric razor head as shown in FIGS. 1-4 is provided, including a fixed blade 1 and a fixed blade support 2 for supporting and fixing the fixed blade 1, wherein the fixed blade 1 is a flexible metal sheet having suppleness; the fixed blade support 2 is a rigid support, and the cross-section of the fixed blade support 2 is arcuate; the fixed blade 1 is supported by the edges on both left and right sides of the fixed blade support 2; under the action of a certain external force, both left and right ends of the fixed blade 1 are bent and tensioned downwardly along an arcuate outer side of the fixed blade support 2 to lie flat against the fixed blade support 2, and the fixed blade 1 is tightly fixed to a lateral face or a bottom face of the fixed blade support 2 by means of welding, riveting or gluing; the fixed blade 1 is provided with hair entrance holes 11 for body hair to enter, and an inner side of the fixed blade 1 is provided with a movable blade 3 capable of moving backward and forward in a reciprocating manner relative to the fixed blade to cut off the body hair inside the hair entrance holes 11; the reciprocating electric razor head further includes a transmission component 4 for connecting the movable blade 3 with a power device of an electric shaver.

[0024] The fixed blade 1 is a flexible metal sheet, which is featured by suppleness and toughness, and the fixed blade support 2 is of an arcuate structure having rigidness. Moreover, the fixed blade 1 is tensioned and then fixed to both sides of the fixed blade support 2 to form a structure similar to a bow-bowstring one, wherein the bowstring is stretched by means of the bow, such that the bowstring (namely the fixed blade 1) has a stretching force. With this bow-bowstring structure, the fixed blade 1 can be tightened, via the stretching force, to the fixed blade support 2 to form a stable shaving face thereon. As the shaving face is not required to be maintained through the rigidness of the material, the rigidness requirements for the fixed blade 1 are extremely low, or the fixed blade is not required to be rigid. Consequently, the thickness of the fixed blade 1 can be made to be ultra-thin, which can't be implemented in other process structures. As such, the influence exerted by the thickness of the fixed blade 1 is negligible during shaving, and body hair can be removed cleanly in one time. It is particularly preferred that the thickness h of the fixed blade 1 satisfies 0<h0.08 mm. In this manner, body hair can be removed more completely and cleanly.

[0025] Furthermore, as it is a flexible metal sheet, and is propped open by the fixed blade support 2 in an outward manner and tightened thereto, the fixed blade 1 can obtain a very flat cutting working face contacting the movable blade 3 without the need for additional precision machining. Moreover, the processes for making and processing the fixed blade are simple, and machining is convenient. As such, costs are saved.

[0026] In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, with regard to the process for fixing the fixed blade 1 with the fixed blade support 2, both left and right ends of the fixed blade 1 are supported by the edges on both left and right sides of the fixed blade support 2, and are bent and tensioned downwardly along the arcuate outer side of the fixed blade support 2 to lie flat against the fixed blade support 2 and below the cutting plane of the fixed blade 1, namely on the lateral face or bottom face of the fixed blade support 2, and the fixed blade 1 is fixed by means of welding, riveting or gluing. This process is simple and convenient to operate, and the smoothness of the cutting working face can be prevented from being affected in the process for fixing the fixed blade 1 with the fixed blade support 2. Moreover, as both left and right ends of the fixed blade 1 are supported by the edges on both left and right sides of the fixed blade support 2 and bent downwardly, an R angle is formed, such that the surface where the fixed blade contacts the skin is smooth, thus offering comfortable shaving experience and high safety.

[0027] The hair entrance holes 11 are equally arranged on both left and right sides of the fixed blade 1, which facilitates the entry and removal of body hair; moreover, shaving can be achieved when the left and right sides are pushed; alternatively, the hair entrance holes 11 may be equally arranged only on the left side or the right side of the fixed blade 1.

[0028] Hair entrance slots 21 for body hair to enter are provided at positions on the fixed blade support 2 corresponding to the hair entrance holes 11. These hair entrance slots 21 eliminate the influence exerted by the fixed blade support 2 on the entry of body hair, thus facilitating the entry of body hair; the movable blade 3 is provided with cutting teeth 31 corresponding to the hair entrance holes 11 and used for cutting body hair.

[0029] The transmission component 4 includes a movable blade support 41 fixedly connected to the movable blade 3 and a driving mount 42 connected with the power device of the electric shaver, wherein the driving mount 42 is fixedly connected with the movable blade support 41, thereby achieving synchronous motion of the movable blade 3, the driving mount 42 and the movable blade support 41.

[0030] In order to ensure that during the reciprocating motion of the movable blade 3, there is no relative deviation between the movable blade 3 and the fixed blade 1 in the vertical direction, and gaps are prevented from forming between these two shades, a movable blade pressing member 5 capable of pressing the movable blade 3 on the fixed blade 1 is provided between the movable blade 3 and the fixed blade support 2. In this manner, body hair can be removed more easily, which confirms the sharpness of the reciprocating electric razor head.

[0031] The movable blade pressing member 5 includes a body 51, a middle portion of the body 51 is provided with a strip-shaped hole 52 for the movable blade support 41 to pass therethrough and slide therein, and the strip-shaped hole 52 cooperates with the movable blade support 41 to constitute a guiding mechanism for guiding the movable blade 3 to move backward and forward in a reciprocating manner; both sides of the body 51 are provided respectively with elastic pressing plates 53 capable of pressing the movable blade 3 on the fixed blade 1. These elastic pressing plates 53 push the movable blade 3 upward, such that the movable blade 3 and the fixed blade 1 are tightly appressed to each other to form a pre-pressing force. In this manner, gaps are prevented from forming between the movable blade 3 and the fixed blade 1, which avoids the problem of unclean removal, and meanwhile, the sharpness performance of the reciprocating electric razor head for removing body hair is ensured.

[0032] A through-hole 32 is provided in the middle of the movable blade 3, wherein front and rear ends of the through-hole 32 are each provided with a movable blade connecting portion 33 protruding in the through-hole 32, such that the movable blade connecting portions 33 project beyond the body of the movable blade 3. The movable blade support 41 is provided with movable blade support connecting portions 411 for mating with the movable blade connecting portions 33 to connect the movable blade 3 with the movable blade support 41. In this manner, the movable blade connecting portions 33 are prevented from being deformed in the process (e.g., welding or riveting) for fixedly connecting the movable blade connecting portions with the movable blade support connecting portions 411. Consequently, the flatness of the movable blade 3 is improved, thus ensuring the sharpness of the overall cutting point of the reciprocating electric razor head.

[0033] Moreover, with regard to its structure, this reciprocating electric razor head is also featured by a small volume and a compact size.

Embodiment 2

[0034] Embodiment 2 as shown in FIGS. 6-8 is distinguished from Embodiment 1 in the following aspects: the movable blade pressing member 5 includes a supporting portion 54 supported on the fixed blade support 2, and an elastic arm 55 for pushing the movable blade 3 upward, wherein the elastic arm 55 is provided with an curved portion 551 for pushing the movable blade 3 upward; the fixed blade support 2 is provided with a limit block 6, wherein the limit block 6 is provided with a strip-shaped slot 61 for mating with the movable blade support 41 and restricting the movable blade support 41 from moving horizontally; the strip-shaped slot 61 is used for guiding the movable blade 3 to move backward and forward in a reciprocating manner; moreover, the movable blade pressing member 5 is a sheet metal member, which ensures that the elastic arm 55 has good elasticity; as such, while the movable blade 3 is tightly appressed to the fixed blade 1, the movable blade 3 can better perform reciprocating motion under the actions of the fixed blade 1 and the elastic arm 55; moreover, the structure is simple, and manufacturing costs are low.

[0035] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, both ends of the movable blade 3 are provided with inner recesses 34, wherein the movable blade connecting portions 33 are arranged to protrude in the inner recesses 34, such that the movable blade connecting portions 33 project beyond the body of the movable blade 3. In this manner, the movable blade connecting portions 33 are prevented from being deformed in the process (e.g., welding or riveting) for fixedly connecting the movable blade connecting portions with the movable blade support connecting portions 411. Consequently, the flatness of the movable blade 3 is improved, thus ensuring the sharpness of the overall cutting point of the reciprocating electric razor head.

[0036] In addition, the reciprocating electric razor head further includes a head support 7 mainly used for mounting and connecting to a handle.
