  In the electric razor which is the body hair treatment device as the background art, the shape of the perforation is made into a long hole so that long hairs and comb hairs can be easily drawn and the drawn hair is cut. Depending on the bend of the comb hair, there is no more hair that is very difficult to be drawn in with the long hole, and there is a problem that sufficient shaving cannot be performed. This problem is not a problem peculiar to the rotary electric razor shown in the background art, but has the same problem with other reciprocating electric razors. Furthermore, a hair treatment apparatus other than an electric razor such as a hair removal device has a similar problem.

  The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems, and an object thereof is to provide an electric razor that can be easily shaved by allowing it to easily enter the outer blade before cutting hair.

  The hair processing apparatus which concerns on this invention is equipped with the electrode part which applies a voltage in the hair processing apparatus which cut | disconnects or extracts body hair, and processes it. As described above, the present invention includes an electrode unit for applying a voltage to a body hair treatment apparatus for treating body hair, so that the body hair can be cut or pulled out while applying a voltage to the body hair, and the body hair can be simply cut or extracted. Compared with the case where the hair is pulled out, the hair can be damaged, the time until the hair can be exposed next time can be lengthened, and skin care can be performed. Specific examples of the hair processing apparatus include an electric razor and a hair removal device.

  Moreover, the electric shaver according to the present invention includes an electrode portion for applying a voltage. As described above, in the present invention, since the electrode portion applies a voltage to the user's skin, not only shaving but also skin care can be performed, and shaving can be performed more appropriately by this care. Can do. More specifically, care for the skin by cleansing removes dust from the pores and increases the degree of freedom of the hair, or the skin is nourished and the hair is softened by the introduction of ions, and the inner blade and the outer blade. Can cut hair deeply.

  Further, the electric razor according to the present invention is configured such that the inner blade is rotatably supported as necessary, the inner blade and the outer blade are disposed on the razor head, and the inner blade or the outer blade is the electrode portion. Is. Thus, in the present invention, since the inner blade functions as an electrode part, the inner blade contacts the skin or the hair and applies a voltage. When the inner blade contacts the skin, the hair is raised, and when the hair contacts the hair A hair removal action is produced, and further deep shaving can be realized. In addition, since the outer blade functions as an electrode part, the outer blade contacts the skin or hair to apply a voltage, and before cutting the inner blade and outer blade, the hair is raised before cutting or the hair is depilated. It can be cut after it has been generated, and a deeper shave can be realized. After cutting the inner and outer blades, the delicate skin after cutting can be cared for. Since the contact time is longer than in the case where the inner blade is an electrode portion, the effect of raising and removing hair can be enhanced.

  Further, according to the electric razor according to the present invention, if necessary, the inner blade is rotatably supported, and the set of the inner blade and the outer blade is disposed before and after the razor head, and the inner razor disposed in front of the razor head. A blade or an outer blade is the electrode part. In this way, in the present invention, a set of outer blades and inner blades is formed on the front and rear of the razor head, and the inner blade of the previous set functions as an electrode portion. After the folds are shaved, voltage can be applied intensively to the remaining folds to produce sufficient hair removal. In addition, since the outer blade of the previous group functions as an electrode part, after the heel is shaved by the inner blade and the outer blade of the subsequent group, a voltage is applied intensively to the remaining heel, Prior to the cutting of the inner blade and the outer blade, the hair can be raised before the cutting or after the hair is caused to have a hair removal action, the hair can be cut and further deep shaving can be realized. Here, the front of the razor head is a front direction when the user is using, and is usually a surface direction in which the switch button and the indicator lamp are arranged. When using a so-called rotary electric razor, the user needs to move the electric razor in a fixed direction according to the shape of the inner blade and the direction of rotation of the inner blade. It is necessary to shave by moving the electric razor from the front side to the back side. In other words, the shaving is performed with the back side of the electric razor on which the wrinkle blade or the like is formed facing up.

  Further, the electric razor according to the present invention is configured so that the inner blade is rotatably supported as necessary, and a set of the inner blade and the outer blade is disposed in front of and behind the razor head, and the inner blade disposed after that. Is the electrode part. As described above, in the present invention, a set of outer blades and inner blades is formed before and after the razor head, and the inner blades of the subsequent sets function as electrode portions. Before the shaving is shaved, the inner blade of the subsequent group applies a voltage to cause a raising action and a hair removal action, and the subsequent pair is cut, and after the cutting, the inner blade is easily cut by the raising action and the hair removal action. Since it is cut by the previous set, it is possible to realize a deeper shave. Further, since the outer blade of the subsequent group functions as an electrode part, before the heel is shaved by the inner blade and the outer blade of the previous group, the outer blade of the subsequent group applies a voltage to raise and remove the hair. The subsequent group is cut, and even after the cutting, it becomes easy to be cut by the raising action and the hair removal action, and it is cut by the previous set, so that deeper shaving can be realized. In particular, when the outer blade of the subsequent group is an electrode part, not only exhibits a high raising effect and a hair removal effect with a longer contact time compared to the case of the inner blade of the subsequent group, The voltage can be applied until just before contacting the previous set.

  Further, according to the electric razor according to the present invention, if necessary, the inner blade is rotatably supported, and a set of the inner blade and the outer blade is arranged at the front and rear of the razor head. A center blade or comb is disposed between the blade and the set, and the center blade or comb is the electrode portion. Thus, in the present invention, a center blade or comb is formed between the front and rear outer blades and inner blades of the razor head, and the center blade or comb applies a voltage, so that the center blade or comb is provided. The reason for this is to cut or trim comb hairs and long hairs, and it is also difficult to shave hairs and long hairs that are difficult to shave by applying a voltage with a center blade or comb that can contact such hairs and long hairs. Deep shaving can be realized by exerting the action and the hair removal action.

  In addition, the electric razor according to the present invention has an electrode portion around the member that holds the outer blade or the member that holds the outer blade, if necessary. When the blade is brought into contact with the user's skin, the member also contacts the member or the periphery of the member. Therefore, the voltage can be appropriately applied to the skin by using this portion as an electrode portion.

  In addition, the electric razor according to the present invention includes, as necessary, a wrinkle blade for cutting long hair that is difficult to cut with the outer blade, and the wrinkle blade is an electrode portion. As described above, the present invention can apply a voltage to long hairs, for example, by cutting the hairs appropriately by applying a voltage to the fir tree part because the wrinkled blade is an electrode part. be able to.

  In addition, the electric razor according to the present invention is configured such that, if necessary, the wrinkle blade is disposed behind the razor head, and at least the outer blade and the wrinkle blade have the same height at the time of use. Thus, according to the present invention, since the outer blade and the wrinkle blade have the same height during use, the outer blade and the wrinkle blade can cut the hair in cooperation with each other, that is, the outer blade and the normal hair can be cut with the wrinkle blade. The hair can be cut at a time while applying a voltage with a wrinkled blade while cutting long hairs to produce a hair removal effect.

  In addition, the electric razor according to the present invention is, as necessary, the inner blade, outer blade, center blade, comb, member that holds the outer blade, the periphery of the member that holds the outer blade, or the wrinkle blade, which are already electrode portions In addition, at least one of the inner blade, the outer blade, the center blade, the comb, the member that holds the outer blade, the periphery of the member that holds the outer blade, or the edge blade is an electrode portion. As described above, in the present invention, two or more electrode portions are configured by the inner blade, the outer blade, the center blade, the comb, the member that holds the outer blade, the periphery of the member that holds the outer blade, or the edge blade. Deep shaving can be realized by raising the hair raising effect and the hair removal effect. In general, an electric razor has a shorter contact time with an affected part than an ion introducer, but a short contact time can be compensated for by forming a plurality of electrode parts.

  Moreover, the electric razor according to the present invention is such that the inner blade is rotatably supported as required, and a cutting blade of the inner blade is formed on the shaft surface. As described above, in the present invention, since it is a so-called rotary electric razor, hair is cut by a spiral cut to be cut, and the hair contact time is relatively long, which is suitable for realizing a raising action or a hair removal action. is there. Here, the hair removal action not only means that the hair root is completely destroyed by electric current, but also includes damage to hair (hair shaft, hair root, hair bulb, hair papilla). I will do it.

  In addition, the electric shaver according to the present invention includes a waste collection unit that collects the waste generated by the electrode unit as necessary. As described above, in the present invention, since the waste collection part is provided, wastes other than the firewood are generated by applying the voltage of the electrode part as compared with a normal electric shaver, but the waste collection part is provided, and the outer blade and The sharpness of the inner blade is maintained for a long time, and appropriate cutting can be performed.

  Further, in the electric shaver according to the present invention, the inner blade is a waste collection part as required. Thus, in the present invention, since the inner blade is a waste collection part, the hair shaved with the inner blade drops and accumulates in the razor head and is discarded by cleaning, but it is the same as the shaved hair Waste products are also discarded and no separate cleaning is required. Here, when the inner blade is used as a waste collection unit, for example, it is desirable to realize at least one of a plurality of blades included in the inner blade as a spatula.

  Moreover, the electric shaver which concerns on this invention arrange | positions a waste collection part in the said center blade or a comb arrangement | positioning part as needed. As described above, in the present invention, since the waste collection part is arranged at the center blade or the comb arrangement portion, the hair is cut by the subsequent inner blade and the outer blade in a state where the waste is removed by the center blade or the comb. In addition to being able to shave deeper, waste products do not adhere to the inner and outer blades, and the sharpness can be maintained.

(First embodiment of the present invention)
An electric shaver according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 is a front view of an electric razor according to the present embodiment, FIG. 2 is a side view of the electric razor according to the present embodiment, FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram of the upper structure of the electric razor according to the present embodiment, and FIG. FIG. 5 is a pulse waveform diagram of the electric razor according to the present embodiment, and FIG. 6 is an operation explanatory diagram of the electric razor according to the present embodiment.

  In each of the drawings, the electric razor according to the present embodiment is an electric razor having drivable inner blades 20, 22 and outer blades 21, 23 circumscribing the inner blades 20, 22. , 22 and the outer blades 21, 23 are arranged in front of and behind the razor head 2, and the outer blade 23 arranged after this is the electrode portion.

  As a detailed configuration, for example, the present invention is applied to a rotary electric shaver having the following configuration. The main configuration of the electric razor is that a main body case 1 in which various operation switches are disposed on the front surface, a razor head 2 disposed on the upper portion of the main body case 1, and an inner surface of the main body case 1. There is an electrical unit 3 having a rechargeable battery 39 that supplies current to the motor 24. However, in this embodiment, a rotary electric razor will be described, but it can also be applied to a reciprocating electric razor.

  The main body case 1 has an upper widened cylindrical shape, and has various operation switches and indicator lights on the front as described above, and a control circuit board (see FIG. (Not shown). As the operation switches, there are a power switch 4 for turning on / off the power, a select button 5 for changing a plurality of drive modes, and a lock knob 6 for locking the power switch 5. As the indicator lamp, a mode indicator 7 indicating the state of the drive mode, a sensor lamp 8 indicating the operation of the whisker sensor, a remaining amount indicator lamp 9 indicating the capacity of the rechargeable battery 39 in stages, and whether charging is in progress There is a charging completion lamp 10 indicating whether charging is completed. Further, on the back surface of the main body case 1, there is a wrinkle knob 11 that can be slid up and down by the user, and a wrinkle blade 12 that is disposed at the upper part of the slide portion.

  The razor head 2 includes two sets of outer cutters (front outer cutter 21 and rear outer cutter 23) and inner cutters (front inner cutter 20 and rear inner cutter 22) arranged on the front and rear sides, and the inner cutters 20 and 22. And a head frame 25 on which the components of the razor head 2 are disposed. Inner blades 20 and 22 are supported on the upper portion of the head frame 25, and a motor 24 housed in the lower portion is disposed. In addition, the head frame 25 can be attached to and detached from the outer blade holder in which the outer blades 21 and 23 are shaped. A center blade 27 is disposed on the outer blade holder 26 between the front outer blade 21 and the rear outer blade 23. The center blade 27 also has a fixed outer blade 29 and a movable inner blade 28, and the fixed outer blade 29 is fixedly disposed on the outer blade holder 26. The use of the center blade 27 is mainly to cut long hairs and comb hairs, and the opening is formed as a long hole so that the fixed outer blade 29 can easily catch the hair compared to the outer blades 21 and 23. Has been.

  The inner blades 20 and 22 are formed by forming a plurality of metal blades in a spiral shape along a cylindrical surface. A shaft is formed at the central portion of the inner blade in the longitudinal direction, and inner blade gears are disposed at both ends. The driven pulley, which is arranged coaxially with the end gear with which the inner blade gear of the front inner blade and the inner blade gear of the rear inner blade are engaged, receives rotation from the driving pulley via the endless belt, and the inner blade gear rotates. The inner blade rotates by moving. The driving pulley is not directly rotated from the output shaft of the motor 24, but is rotated via a speed reduction transmission mechanism including a plurality of gears. Further, the rotation of the output shaft of the motor 24 is changed to a reciprocating motion via a gear, and the center blade 27 and the wrinkle blade 12 are driven by the reciprocating motion.

  The rear outer blade 23 is made of a conductive member for applying a voltage to the skin, and is in a conductive state through the human body together with the counter electrode portion 30 which is also made of a conductive member and is located in the hand-held portion of the main body case 1. In actual use, the rear outer blade 23 comes into contact with the affected part, the counter electrode part 30 comes into contact with the palm or hand finger having the electric razor, and the electrode part 1 (or the counter electrode part 30) passes through the human body. A current flows toward the counter electrode part 30 (or the electrode part 1).

  The current supply to the rear outer blade 23 is performed from the rechargeable battery 39 similarly to the motor 24. As shown in FIG. 2 (b), the current supply line branches from the inner blade side metal piece 32 disposed on the inner blade support portion 31 on the head frame 25 by branching the lead wire connected to the motor 24. The inner blade side metal piece 32 is connected to the outer blade side holder 26 and the outer blade side metal piece 33 and the outer blade holder 26 are connected to the main body case 1 when mounted. The inner blade side metal pieces 32 are formed on the inner blade support portion one by one on the left and right. In correspondence with the two inner blade side metal pieces 32, two outer blade side metal pieces 33 are formed inside the outer blade holder 26. The reason why two inner blade side metal pieces 32 and two outer blade side metal pieces 33 are formed on the rear outer blade 23 is to apply a voltage to the rear outer blade 23 uniformly. The reason why the lead wire and the metal piece are configured in this manner is that the outer blade holder 26 can be detached from the main body case 1 and can be electrically conductive when the outer blade holder 26 is mounted. That is, when all are comprised with a lead wire, attachment / detachment becomes impossible or attachment / detachment becomes difficult. In FIG. 2B, the thick solid line is the current supply line, the dotted line is the control line, and FIG. 2B shows the current supplied from the rechargeable battery 39 to the motor 24 or the rear outer blade 23 by the control circuit 38. It shows that you are controlling.

  The lead wire connected to the inner blade side metal piece 32 consists of one line, while the lead wire connected to the motor 24 consists of two lines. A voltage is applied from the rear outer blade 23 which is an electrode portion through the former lead wire, the inner blade side metal piece 32 and the outer blade side metal piece 33, and a current flows to the counter electrode portion 30 through the human body. One is sufficient.

  A control circuit mounted on the control board receives inputs from various input switches and controls current supply to the motor 24, the display lamp, and the rear outer blade 23 as an electrode portion. The control circuit is located in front of the rechargeable battery 39 and receives current supply from the rechargeable battery 39 as a supply source of control current. The control circuit changes the control of the motor 24 by pressing the select button 5 of the user, and realizes three modes of an auto mode, a powerful mode, and a turbo mode. The auto mode is a mode in which the number of rotations of the motor is changed according to the amount of the whiskers, and the high-speed powerful state and the low-speed mild state are switched according to the amount of beards. The powerful mode is a mode in which a powerful state is fixed and maintained. The turbo mode is a mode that operates at a higher rotational speed than that in the powerful state. The control circuit records which mode it is currently in, and at the next startup, it starts from the mode at the previous end. Each time the select button 5 is pressed, the mode is repeatedly changed to the auto mode, the powerful mode, and the turbo mode.

  In any of the above modes, a voltage can be applied to the rear outer blade 23. By pressing the select button 5 for a long time, the control circuit enters a state in which a voltage is applied to the rear outer blade 23. Actually, a detection current is passed through the rear outer blade 23 by the control circuit, and it is detected whether or not the user is actually contacting the rear outer blade 23 with the skin. When the detected current is detected from the counter electrode 30 via the human body, the control circuit determines that the rear outer blade 23 is in contact with the skin, and performs normal voltage application. While the voltage is being applied, the control circuit detects the current from the counter electrode part 30, and when the detection of such current is stopped, the user can recognize that the use has stopped, and only the detected current flows again. It becomes.

  The normal voltage application means not a detection voltage application, but does not necessarily have a limited meaning that the detection voltage level and the normal voltage level are not the same. That is, not only the difference in voltage level but also the difference in pulse width and number of pulses. Multiple modes can be realized depending on how this voltage is applied, cleansing mode that removes toxins and waste accumulated in the deep part of the skin, and elasticity of skin that expands and reduces facial skin holes There are a massage mode in which the skin is maintained, an ion introduction mode in which nutrients such as lotion penetrate into the deep part of the skin, and a lifting mode in which the pores of the skin are expanded and contracted to hold the skin with tension. The pulse waveform in each mode is shown in FIG. In the present embodiment, a cleansing mode pulse waveform is used. Here, it is also possible to adopt a configuration in which the mode is changed by a switch operation using a waveform of another pulse.

  In the mode display mode, the mode indicator 7 lights up in dark blue when in the power mode, and the mode indicator 7 lights in light blue in the mild state. In either mode, the sensor lamp 8 lights up. In the powerful mode, the sensor lamp 8 is turned off and the mode indicator 7 is lit in dark blue. In the turbo mode, the sensor lamp 8 is similarly turned off and the mode indicator 7 is lit in orange.

  Next, the operation of the electric razor according to this embodiment will be described. When the power switch 4 is turned ON, the control circuit reads the recorded mode at the previous end and rotates the motor 24. As the motor 24 rotates, the output shaft of the motor 24 rotates, the driving pulley rotates through the speed reduction transmission mechanism, the driven pulley rotates through the endless belt, and the coaxial terminal gear of the driven pulley rotates. Then, the inner blade gear engaged with the rotation of the terminal gear rotates, and the inner blades 20 and 22 rotate. Similar to the rotation of the inner blade, the output shaft of the motor 24 rotates, and the center blade 27 is driven by the reciprocating motion. When the user pushes up the knurling knob 11 while the inner blades 20 and 22 are rotating, the reciprocating motion to the center blade 27 can be transmitted to the wrinkle blade 12 and driven.

  In addition to the above normal operation of the electric razor, when the user presses the select button for a long time, the detection current first flows to the rear outer blade 23 which is an electrode part under the control of the control circuit, and the detection current is applied to the counter electrode. If detected by the unit 30, the cleansing mode pulse waveform is output to the rear outer blade 23. In the cleansing mode voltage application state, as shown in FIG. 6 (a), the electric razor motor 24 is driven to rotate the front inner blade 20 and the rear inner blade 22, so that first, as shown in FIG. 6 (b). As shown in FIG. 6C, the whiskers protruding from the holes of the rear outer blade 23 are cut by the rear inner blade 22 together with the rear outer blade 23 and the voltage applied to the rear outer blade 23 removes dirt from the pores. The beard that is bent is free from bending due to the absence of dirt on the pores and protrudes from the hole of the inner blade 20 and is cut by the front inner blade 20 and the front outer blade 21.

  As described above, according to the electric razor according to the present embodiment, the set of the outer blades 21 and 23 and the inner blades 20 and 22 is formed before and after the razor head 2, and the outer blade 23 of the subsequent set functions as an electrode portion. Therefore, before the heel is shaved by the inner blade 20 and the outer blade 21 of the previous group, the outer blade 23 of the subsequent group applies a voltage to cause a raising action and a hair removal action, and the subsequent group is cut. Even after the cutting, it becomes easy to be cut by the raising action and the hair removal action and is cut by the previous set, so that deep shaving can be realized.

  In addition, the electric shaver according to the present embodiment can have the front inner blade 20 function as an electrode portion instead of the rear outer blade 23, and remains after the heel is shaved by the rear inner blade 22 and the rear outer blade 23. A sufficient hair removal action can be generated by applying a voltage intensively to the wrinkles. Here, in order to make the front inner blade 20 function as an electrode portion, for example, a lead wire is extended to the shaft of the inner blade 20 without forming the outer blade side metal piece 33 and the inner blade side metal piece 32. It can be realized by forming and connecting. The inner blade of the rotary electric razor has a configuration in which a plurality of cutting blades are usually formed on the axial surface, a resin having a predetermined thickness is formed, and the cutting blade is exposed to a predetermined height. Therefore, a voltage can be applied to the cutting blade by applying a voltage to the shaft center via the lead wire.

  In addition, the electric razor according to the present embodiment can have the front outer blade 21 function as an electrode portion instead of the rear outer blade 23, and after the heel is shaved by the rear inner blade 22 and the rear outer blade 23, A voltage is applied intensively to the remaining wrinkles, and before the front inner blade 20 and the front outer blade 21 are cut, the hair can be raised before the cutting or after the hair has been removed, it can be cut further. Deep shaving can be realized.

  Further, in the electric razor according to the present embodiment, since the inner blade functions as an electrode portion instead of the rear outer blade 23, the rear inner blade 22 is cut before the front inner blade 20 and the front outer blade 21 are shaved. Applies a voltage to cause a raising action and a hair removal action, and the rear inner blade 22 and the rear outer blade 23 are cut, and after the cutting, it is easily cut by the raising action and the hair removal action and is cut by the previous set. Therefore, deeper shave can be realized.

  In the electric razor according to the present embodiment, a center blade 27 is formed between a set of outer and inner blades before and after the razor head 2, and the center blade 27 applies a voltage. The reason for this is to cut or trim the comb hair or long hair, and when the voltage is applied by the center blade 27 that can come into contact with such hair or long hair, it is difficult to shave the hair or long hair. Further, the hair removal action can be exerted to achieve deep shaving. Here, in order for the front inner blade 20 to function as an electrode portion, for example, the lead wire is extended to the center blade 27 or the comb without forming the outer blade side metal piece 33 and the inner blade side metal piece 32. It can be realized by forming and connecting.

  In addition to the rear outer blade 23, the electric razor according to the present embodiment uses at least one of the front inner blade 20, the front outer blade 21, the rear front blade 22, or the center blade 27 as an electrode portion. Thus, two or more electrode parts are formed, and a deep shaving can be realized by further raising a raising effect and a hair removal effect. That is, the electric razor has a shorter contact time with the affected part than the iontophoresis device, but the short contact time can be compensated by forming a plurality of electrode parts.

  In addition, the electric razor according to the present embodiment enables the voltage application to the rear outer blade 23 by the lead wire and the metal piece, but other configurations can be applied as long as it is conductive. For example, the lead wire It is also possible to use a plug and jack. More specifically, a plug is formed on the outer blade holder 26, a jack is formed on the head frame 25, and a lead wire is connected to the jack. It becomes the state inserted in and becomes conductive.

  In addition, the electric razor according to the present embodiment can also be provided with a vibrator, and effects such as cleansing at the electrode portion can be remarkably enhanced by vibration of the vibrator. Here, a vibrator capable of generating vibration by rotating a separately eccentric weight can be applied, but the rotation of the inner blades 20 and 22 can also be realized by repeatedly driving and stopping the motor. It can also be realized without providing a separate configuration. Moreover, the electric razor normally vibrates, and even such normal vibration can enhance the effect of cleansing and the like. In other words, applying a voltage application configuration to such an electric shaver alone has a certain effect. In addition, the structure of the electric razor adopts a structure that suppresses vibration (including sound), but by not applying such a structure, the vibration can be increased and cleansing and the like can be performed. The effect can also be enhanced.

  In addition, the electric razor according to the present embodiment can be configured such that part of the entire surface of the outer blades 21 and 23 can be electrically connected and the other part cannot be electrically connected. The voltage can be applied to the power supply, which is also desirable from the viewpoint of power consumption.

  Moreover, although the shape of the hole of the outer blade is not described in the electric razor according to the present embodiment, the hole of the rear outer blade 23 can be formed smaller than the hole of the front outer blade 21, and the rear outer blade No. 23 has a large contact area for voltage application and can perform cleansing smoothly, and the front outer blade 21 can reliably capture and cut a beard with a large hole in the skin after cleansing.

  Further, the electric razor according to the present embodiment is configured such that the razor head 2 does not swing, but swings by configuring the lead wire connected to the inner blade side metal piece 32 with a margin to make it longer. It can also be configured.

  Further, the electric razor according to the present embodiment is configured such that the razor head 2 does not swing, but only when the razor head is locked and the swing is locked, that is, when the razor head 2 is upright and not tilted. However, the metal pieces disposed on the razor head 2 and the upper part of the main body case 1 below the razor head 2 may be connected to each other to apply a voltage.

  In addition, the electric razor according to the present embodiment is independent of the driving of the motor 24 and the voltage application to the rear outer blade 23, but the driving of the motor 24 and the voltage application to the rear outer blade 23 are performed. It is also possible to employ a configuration in which the motor 24 is driven, and it is possible to apply a voltage to the rear outer blade 23 only when the motor 24 is driven, thereby suppressing the output of an extra detected current.

  In addition, the electric razor according to the present embodiment can be washed with water, and when the motor 24 is driven for washing at the time of washing with water, it can be configured so that a voltage cannot be applied to the outer and inner blades 23. By applying a voltage to the outer inner blade 23 in contact with water, the occurrence of overcurrent can be suppressed, danger to the user can be prevented, and a short circuit can be prevented. Here, in this embodiment, since the voltage application of the outer / inner blade 23 is set by pressing and holding the select button 5, it is unlikely that the user will set the voltage by mistake, and there is almost no possibility of voltage application during washing. Absent.

  In addition, the electric razor according to the present embodiment has a configuration of three blades of the front inner blade 20, the front outer blade 21, the center blade 27, the rear inner blade 22, and the rear outer blade 23. Even a so-called single-blade electric razor composed of an outer blade can be configured such that the inner blade or the outer blade of the single blade is used as an electrode portion. When the inner blade is an electrode part, the inner blade contacts the skin or hair and applies a voltage. When the inner blade comes into contact with the skin, the hair is raised, and when it comes into contact with the hair, a hair removal action is caused. Further shave can be realized. Also, when the rear blade is an electrode part, the outer blade functions as an electrode part, so that the outer blade contacts the skin or hair to apply voltage, and before cutting the inner blade and outer blade, before cutting.

That is, in the first embodiment, a voltage can be applied to the rear outer blade 23 that is an electrode portion by long-pressing the select button 5, but in this embodiment, the select button 5 is simply long-pressed. Then, no voltage is applied, and when the electrode knob 34 is slid so that the electrode portion 35 has the same height as the outer blades 21 and 23, application of voltage to the electrode portion 35 is started by the control circuit. However, a configuration in which a voltage is applied to the electrode portion 35 without sliding the electrode knob 34 can also be adopted. Conversely, a configuration in which a voltage is applied to the electrode unit 35 by simply sliding can be employed.

  As described above, the electric razor according to the present embodiment forms the electrode knob 34 and the electrode portion 35 symmetrically with the wrinkle knob 11 and the wrinkle blade 12 on the front surface of the main body case, so that not only shaving but also care for the skin is performed. With this care, shaving can be performed more appropriately. Furthermore, in the present embodiment, when the electrode knob 34 is slid so that the electrode portion 35 has the same height as the outer blades 21 and 23, the application of voltage to the electrode portion 35 is started. It is efficient without doing. In the case of an electric razor that can be washed with water, the voltage applied to the electrode unit 35 is not started unless the electrode knob 34 is slid and the select button 5 is pressed for a long time. There is almost no application, and safety is high.

  The electric razor according to the present embodiment has a configuration in which the electrode knob 34 and the electrode portion 35 are disposed on the front surface of the main body case, but the electrode portion 35 is disposed on the center blade 27 portion and the wrinkle blade 12 portion. The same effect as when the center blade 27 and the rear inner blade 23 become the electrode portions can be obtained, respectively, and the metal pieces and lead wires are not arranged in the razor head 2 and the structure is simple. can do. Further, when the razor head 2 can be swung, the movable range is not limited by the lead wire.

  Further, in the electric razor according to the present embodiment, the electrode knob 34 is slid so that the electrode portion 35 is slightly higher than the outer blades 21 and 23, and a spring is disposed between the electrode flange 34 and the main body case 1. It can also be configured to be able to float in the downward direction of the slide, and when used in a flat skin, the skin and the electrode portion 35 come into contact with each other and slide downward in the slide, so that the height is equal to that of the outer blades 21 and 23. A voltage is applied, and in a bent portion such as a jaw, the electrode portion 35 is slid upward while sliding, and the voltage is applied while maintaining a contact state without being separated from the skin by being higher than the outer blades 21 and 23. be able to.

(Third embodiment of the present invention)
An electric shaver according to a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of an electric razor razor head according to the present embodiment. 8 (a) ′, FIG. 8 (b) ′, FIG. 8 (c) corresponding to FIG. 8 (a), FIG. 8 (b), and FIG. 8 (c). ) ′.
A schematic diagram of the razor head of the electric razor according to the first embodiment is as shown in FIG. 8A. The inner blades 20 and 22 are rotary inner blades, and the blade portion is a straight line unlike the reciprocating inner blade. It is not bent but formed. By being bent like a rotary inner blade, the rotary electric razor can be cut so as to tear off the beard. Accordingly, since the rotary inner blade is bent, it is possible to slightly collect dirt generated by cleansing due to voltage application of the electrode portion. In this embodiment, the dirt is further collected to clean the skin and make it easier to cut the beard. As shown in FIG. 8B, two of the seven cutting blades are specialized for collection, and the tip of the two cutting blades is formed in a bowl shape to serve as a waste collection part. Yes. The dirt can be collected more by this tip. Moreover, as shown in FIG.8 (c), the collection | recovery member which made the front-end | tip a brush was newly provided in two cutting blade parts, and it can also be set as the structure which becomes a waste collection part. In FIG. 8B and FIG. 8C, the cutting of the front inner blade 20 is made different, but when the rear outer blade 23 functions as an electrode portion, first the cleansing is performed by the rear outer blade 23. In addition, the rear inner blade 22 can remove some dirt, and the front cutting blade 20 can collect dirt with a recovery cutting blade or a recovery member to care for the skin.

As described above, according to the electric razor according to the present embodiment, since the inner blade is a waste collection unit, the hair shaved with the inner blade drops and accumulates in the razor head 2 and is discarded by cleaning. However, waste as well as shaved hair is discarded and no separate cleaning is required.
In addition, although the electric shaver which concerns on this embodiment provided the waste collection part in the front inner blade 20, it can also be provided in the waste collection part in the rear inner blade 22, and it applies a voltage with the rear outer blade 23, and is used. The waste is collected by the waste collection part of the rear inner blade 22 and the whisk easily cut by the front inner blade 20 and the front outer blade 21 can be reliably cut.

  Further, the electric razor according to the present embodiment can separately form a waste collection part 36 together with a waste collection part knob 37 as shown in FIG. 9 without using a cutting blade as a waste collection part. It can also be used by sliding in the same manner as the knob 11 and the wrinkle blade 12. In this case, compared with the use of a cutting blade, care of the waste collection part (that is, cleaning of the collected waste product) is facilitated. In addition, it is possible to collect the waste with the cotton puff by fitting the cotton puff into the waste collection part 36, and the maintenance is completed by replacing the cotton puff. Moreover, although the waste collection part 36 was formed in the main body case 1 front surface, the center blade 27 part may be sufficient and the wrinkle blade 12 part may be sufficient.

In addition, the electric razor according to this embodiment can be provided by bending the center blade 27 as a reciprocating blade and functioning as a waste collection part, and the beard of the skin cleaned by the front inner blade 20 and the front outer blade 21. Can be cut smoothly.
In addition, the electric razor according to the present embodiment can specialize all cutting blades of the front inner blade 20 for collection, and can function the entire inner blade 20 as a waste collection unit. Since each of the blade 20 and the rear inner blade 22 is performed, the function of recovering waste products can be recovered again by replacing the front inner blade 20 when the function of collecting waste products cannot be performed. When a part of the cutting blade of the front inner blade 20 is specialized for recovery, either the sharpness of the cutting blade for cutting or the recovery capability of the cutting blade for recovering the waste is not good. On the other hand, even though it can still be used, it must be replaced.
