Problems to be solved by the invention
When drying the washed electric shaver, the electric shaver is set to an inverted posture, and the outer blade frame (outer blade holder) holding the outer blade is separated and stored in this state, thereby promoting drying. However, in the holder of patent document 1, the separated outer blade frame needs to be stored separately from the main body of the electric shaver, and there is a possibility that the outer blade frame is lost. Further, since the electric shaver is held by the holder by the outer blade frame being received, the main body of the electric shaver is not held properly in a state where the outer blade frame is separated, and cannot be stored in a stable state. Further, since the main body of the electric shaver is inserted below the proper position, the inner cutter may contact the horizontal base and be damaged. Further, the horizontal table of the stand of patent document 1 is large in itself, and therefore, it is not assumed to be used as a protective cover when being carried while being accommodated in a bag or the like.
The present invention has an object to provide a protective cover for an electric shaver, which can store an outer blade holder and an electric shaver separately from each other and dry them to prevent the outer blade holder from being lost even when the outer blade holder is separated to promote drying.
The present invention has an object to provide a protective cover for an electric shaver, which can support the electric shaver in a stable state even in a state where an outer holder is removed, by making the same manner of attaching the electric shaver to the protective cover, regardless of the attachment and detachment of the outer holder.

Effects of the invention
The protective cover of the electric shaver according to the present invention can cover the outer surface of the shaver head 2 while supporting the electric shaver in an inverted posture, both in a case where the outer holder 13 is attached to the head body 12 and in a case where the outer holder 13 is detached from the head body 12. The protective cap is provided with a mounting structure 40 to which the outer holder 13 separated from the shaving head 2 is detachably mounted. According to the protective cover of the electric shaver, after the electric shaver is washed with water, the electric shaver with the outer blade holder 13 attached thereto can be stored in an inverted posture and dried. Further, the electric shaver in a state where the outer cutter holder 13 is separated can be stored in an inverted posture and dried by attaching the separated outer cutter holder 13 to the attachment structure 40 while attaching the electric shaver to the protective cover. As described above, according to the present invention, even when the outer cutter holder 13 is separated to promote drying, the separated outer cutter holder 13 and the electric shaver can be stored together and dried, and the outer cutter holder 13 can be prevented from being lost.
The mounting structure of the protective cover and the electric shaver is constituted by the receiving seat 26 provided on the cover 21 and the mounting portion 17 formed on the outer surface of the head main body 12 not covered by the outer holder 13, so that the electric shaver can be supported in an inverted posture at the same height position regardless of the presence or absence of the outer holder 13. According to this mounting structure, the electric shaver can be placed in the same posture, and therefore, the storage posture can be prevented from being unstable due to the presence or absence of the outer blade holder 13, and therefore, the electric shaver can be supported in a stable state even in a state where the outer blade holder is separated. Further, the inner blade 6 exposed when the outer blade holder 13 is separated does not come into contact with the protection cap and is not damaged.
The mounting structure 40 is provided at a position not more than half of the overall height of the electric shaver mounted on the protective cover, and the outer holder 13 mounted on the mounting structure 40 is supported in a state where the lower surface thereof is suspended and separated from the mounting surface of the protective cover. This can prevent the center of gravity of the electric shaver attached to the protective cover from moving upward when the outer holder 13 is attached to the attachment structure 40. Therefore, the electric shaver can be prevented from being unstable in balance and from falling over. Further, when the outer holder 13 is dropped from the mounting structure 40, the drop distance is small, and accordingly, damage to the outer holder 13 can be avoided.
At least one of the opposed surfaces 42 and 42 of the hooking slit 41 constituting the mounting structure 40 is formed of an inclined surface inclined upward in a direction away from the lid 21. According to the mounting structure 40, since the outer blade holder 13 can be mounted so as to be spaced apart from the electric shaver on the upper side of the peripheral wall 14 inserted into the hook-and-loop slit 41, when the electric shaver is mounted to and dismounted from the protective cover having the outer blade holder 13 mounted to the mounting structure 40, interference between the outer blade holder 13 and the electric shaver can be avoided as much as possible. Further, when the protective cover to which the electric shaver is attached is placed in an inverted posture and the outer blade holder 13 is attached to and detached from the hook slit 41, the protective cover can be attached while being close to the cap 21 side at the time of attachment, and can be detached while being away from the cap 21 at the time of detachment. In this regard, interference between the outer cutter holder 13 and the electric shaver can be avoided.
If a plurality of support legs 27 are extended from the outer surface of the cover portion 21 and the fitting structure 40 is formed on the support legs 27, the appearance of the protective cover can be made neat and the design can be improved as compared with the case where the fitting structure 40 is additionally provided on the outer surface of the cover portion 21. In addition, it is possible to suppress an increase in the material for forming the protective cover due to the additional formation of the mounting structure 40, to reduce the manufacturing cost, and to improve the portability due to the reduction in weight.
If the hooking slit 41 is provided at the upper end edge of the support leg 27 closer to the cover 21, the center of gravity can be prevented from moving in a direction away from the center of the cover 21 when the outer holder 13 is attached to the attachment structure 40, and the electric shaver can be placed in a stable state. Further, when the outer holder 13 is assembled to the assembly structure 40, the contour shape of the protective cover including the outer holder 13 in a plan view can be reduced, and therefore, the occupied space during storage can be reduced, and compact storage can be achieved.
If the upright posture holding portion 44 for holding the electric shaver placed in the upright posture is provided on the front side of the cap portion 21 facing the mounting structure 40, the electric shaver can be temporarily placed in the protective cover C in the middle of shaving. Accordingly, when the grasping mode of the electric shaver is to be changed, the electric shaver can be temporarily placed in the upright posture holding portion 44 in the upright posture and can be grasped again in a desired grasping mode, and therefore, the usability of the electric shaver can be improved.
When the electric shaver attached to the upright posture holding portion 44 is held in the upright posture in which the electric shaver is tilted backward, the center of gravity of the electric shaver located near the center of the upper and lower sides can be brought closer to the mounting surface than in the case of holding in the upright posture.
The lower end of the electric shaver faces the mounting structure 40 on the front side of the cover 21 in a state where the electric shaver is mounted on the upright posture holding portion 44. Accordingly, when the center of gravity of the electric shaver is positioned above the cover 21, the lower end of the electric shaver is positioned forward of the center of the cover 21, and the backward tilt angle of the electric shaver can be increased accordingly. Therefore, the instability of the balance of the electric shaver can be further suppressed. In addition, compared to the case where the upright posture holding portion 44 is formed on the inner surface of the lid portion 21, the structure of the inner surface of the lid portion 21 is simplified, and the protective cover can be prevented from being enlarged.
The pair of support legs 27, the bridge wall 45, and the cutout 46 constitute an upright posture holding portion 44, and the lower end of the electric shaver is held in a space surrounded by the pair of support legs 27 and the bridge wall 45 in a state where the electric shaver is attached to the upright posture holding portion 44. According to the upright posture holding portion 44 as described above, the lower end of the electric shaver is surrounded by the pair of support legs 27 and the bridge wall 45 to prevent rattling, and the electric shaver can be temporarily placed on the upright posture holding portion 44 in a more stable state.
The protective cover is provided with a support arm 36 for supporting the main body 1 of the electric shaver, and the support arm 36 is composed of an arm base 37 extending upward from the peripheral wall 23 of the cover 21 and a pair of support pieces 38 provided at the front end of the arm base 37 and sandwiching the left and right side surfaces of the main body 1. According to the protective cover of the electric shaver provided with the supporting arms 36, the left and right side surfaces of the main body 1 can be held by the pair of supporting pieces 38, the state of mounting the electric shaver to the protective cover is made firm, and the stability of the electric shaver to be mounted can be improved.
The left and right side surfaces of the main body 1 can be held by the support pieces 38 in either a state in which the electric shaver is mounted in the protective cover in an upright posture or a state in which the electric shaver is mounted in the protective cover in an inverted posture. Accordingly, the electric shaver can be firmly attached to the protective cover in both postures, and the stability of the electric shaver placed thereon can be improved.
The protective cover with the electric shaver mounted thereon can be placed in a lying posture in which the front surface of the main body 1 faces the placement surface and in a lying posture in which the rear surface of the main body 1 faces the placement surface, and the switch 8 and the pusher unit 9 in each lying posture are supported by the support legs 27 in a state of being suspended and separated from the placement surface of the protective cover. According to such a protective cover for an electric shaver, when the electric shaver is placed on the placement surface in a lying posture, the switch 8 or the pusher unit 9 can be prevented from being damaged by contact with the placement surface. In each lying posture, three points of the pair of support legs 27 and a part of the arm base 37, or the pair of support legs 27 and a part of the main body 1 are in contact with the placement surface, and therefore, the user can place the device in the lying posture in a stable state without shaking.
When the switch 8 is covered with the arm base 37 in a state where the electric shaver is attached to the protective cover, the switch 8 can be protected by the arm base 37, and therefore, the switch 8 is not erroneously switched to the on state when the electric shaver is stored in a bag or the like for carrying. Further, when the support projection 48 that abuts against the mounting surface when the protection cover attached with the electric shaver is mounted in the lying posture in which the front surface of the main body 1 faces the mounting surface is provided at the tip of the arm base 37, it is possible to prevent the arm base 37 from being worn, and it is possible to avoid the arm base 37 from abutting against the mounting surface, thereby improving the durability of the protection cover.
If the bottom wall 22 of the cover portion 21 is provided with the water discharge hole 33 for discharging the water received by the inner surface of the cover portion 21, the water dropped from the electric shaver after washing can be discharged from the water discharge hole 33, and the water is prevented from accumulating in the inner bottom of the cover portion 21, thereby facilitating the drying of the electric shaver.
When the recess 32 surrounded by the annular wall 31 is formed in the bottom wall 22 of the lid portion 21, water discharged from the water discharge hole 33 is held in a space defined by the recess 32 and the mounting surface, and water can be prevented from spreading over the mounting surface. Further, if the annular peripheral wall 31 is continuous with the peripheral wall 23 of the cover portion 21, water flowing along the outer surface of the cover portion 21 can smoothly flow to the placement surface without accumulating in the middle of the cover portion 21. In addition, the protective cover can be made compact accordingly without having an extended portion, and portability of the electric shaver can be improved.
If the mirror 34 is provided on the bottom surface of the recess 32 of the cover 21, shaving can be performed while viewing the mirror 34 even in places where no mirror is present, such as a destination. In addition, the portability of the electric shaver can be further improved correspondingly without additionally carrying a mirror. According to the scope 34 provided in the recess 32, contact with the placement surface can be avoided as much as possible, and damage to the scope 34 can be suppressed.

In order to prevent the lid portion 21 from interfering with the main body portion 1 and the lid portion 21 from interfering with the lock release button 18 when the protective cover C is assembled, a main body escape portion 28 and a button escape portion 29 are formed in the front wall 24 and the left and right walls of the peripheral wall 23 by cutting. A circumferential wall 31 projecting downward is provided at the peripheral edge of the bottom wall 22, and a recess 32 is formed at the bottom surface of the bottom wall 22. The annular peripheral wall 31 is continuous with the peripheral wall 23 of the lid 21, and the outer surface of the peripheral wall 23 and the outer surface of the annular peripheral wall 31 are flush with each other.
As described above, when the recess 32 surrounded by the circumferential wall 31 is formed in the bottom wall 22 of the cover portion 21, the water discharged from the water discharge hole 33 can be held in the space defined by the recess 32 and the mounting surface, and the water can be prevented from spreading over the mounting surface. When the annular peripheral wall 31 is continuous with the peripheral wall 23 of the lid portion 21, water flowing along the outer surface of the lid portion 21 can smoothly flow down to the placement surface without accumulating in the middle of the lid portion 21. Further, the protective cover C can be made compact by no protruding portion, and portability of the electric shaver can be improved.
As shown in fig. 3, ventilation openings 30 are formed in the rear wall 25 and the lower half portions of the left and right walls of the peripheral wall 23. Further, a ventilation opening 30A larger than the other openings is formed in the upper half of the rear wall 25 of the peripheral wall 23. The ventilation opening 30 is provided for the following purposes: when the electric shaver is attached to the protective cover C, air can flow inside and outside the cover 21, and drying of the electric shaver after water washing is promoted. In a state where the electric shaver to which the outer blade holder 13 is attached to the protective cover C, the cleaning window 15 faces the large-sized ventilation opening 30A. Thus, if the shutter 16 is opened, the drying in the lint chamber R can be promoted.
Drain holes 33 for draining the water received by the lid 21 are provided at the four corners of the bottom wall 22. When the drain hole 33 is provided in the bottom wall 22, water dripping from the electric shaver after washing with water can be discharged from the drain hole 33, and accumulation in the inner bottom of the cover 21 can be prevented, thereby facilitating drying of the electric shaver. As described above, the water discharged from the water discharge hole 33 is retained in the space defined by the concave portion 32 and the mounting surface.
As shown in fig. 5, a mirror 34 is provided on the bottom surface of the recess 32 of the lid 21. In the present embodiment, the mirror body 34 is formed of a resin sheet having one surface mirror-finished by aluminum vapor deposition, and the resin sheet is fixed by bonding so as to face the mirror-finished surface outward. An opening is provided in the resin sheet at a position corresponding to the drain hole 33, so that drainage is not hindered. In this way, when the mirror 34 is provided on the bottom surface of the recess 32 of the cover 21, shaving can be performed while viewing the mirror 34 even in places where no mirror is present, such as at a destination. In addition, the electric shaver does not need to carry a mirror additionally, and accordingly the portability of the electric shaver can be improved. According to the scope 34 provided in the recess 32, contact with the placement surface can be avoided as much as possible, and damage to the scope 34 can be suppressed. The mirror body 34 may be made of a stainless steel plate material with one surface mirror-finished, or aluminum may be directly vapor-deposited on the bottom surface of the recess 32 to mirror-finished.
As shown in fig. 3 and 5, the protective cover C is provided with a support arm 36 that supports the main body 1 of the electric shaver. The support arm 36 includes an arm base 37 extending upward from the rear wall 25 (peripheral wall 23) of the cover 21, and a pair of support pieces 38 provided at the front end of the arm base 37 and sandwiching the left and right side surfaces of the main body 1. In a state where the electric shaver is fitted to the protective cover C, the switch 8 is covered by the arm base 37. According to the protective cover C provided with the support arms 36, the left and right side surfaces of the main body 1 can be held by the pair of support pieces 38, so that the electric shaver can be firmly attached to the protective cover, and the stability of the electric shaver to be mounted thereon can be improved. When the switch 8 is covered with the arm base 37, the switch 8 is protected by the arm base 37, and the switch 8 is not erroneously switched to the on state when the electric shaver is stored in a bag or the like for carrying.
In order to facilitate drying of the electric shaver which has been subjected to water washing cleaning, it is preferable to dry the outer blade holder 13 in a state of being separated from the head main body 12. In the protective cover C of the present embodiment, in order to store the separated outer blade holder 13 together with the electric shaver, as shown in fig. 1, a mounting structure 40 is provided in the protective cover C, and the separated outer blade holder 13 can be detachably mounted to the mounting structure 40. The fitting structure 40 is provided at the upper end edges of the pair of support legs 27 formed on the front side, and is constituted by a hooking slit 41 into which the peripheral wall 14 of the outer holder 13 is inserted toward the lower side. The hooking slit 41 is provided at the upper end edge of the support leg 27 closer to the cover 21.
As described above, when the fitting structure 40 is formed at the pair of support legs 27, the appearance of the protective cover C can be made neat, and the design can be improved, as compared with the case where the fitting structure 40 is additionally provided at the outer surface of the cover portion 21. In addition, it is possible to suppress an increase in the material for forming the protective cover C due to the additional formation of the mounting structure 40, to reduce the manufacturing cost, and to improve the portability due to the reduction in weight.
If the hooking slit 41 is provided at the upper end edge of the support leg 27 closer to the cover 21, the center of gravity can be prevented from moving in a direction away from the center of the cover 21 when the outer holder 13 is attached to the attachment structure 40, and the electric shaver can be placed in a stable state. Further, when the outer holder 13 is assembled to the assembly structure 40, the contour shape of the protective cover including the outer holder 13 in a plan view can be reduced, and therefore, the occupied space during storage can be reduced, and compact storage can be achieved.
At least one of the facing surfaces 42 and 42 of the hooking slit 41 is formed of an inclined surface inclined upward in a direction away from the cover 21. In the present embodiment, the front facing surface 42 is inclined upward in a direction away from the cover 21, and the rear facing surface 42 is inclined upward in a direction close to the cover 21. The outer holder 13 with the peripheral wall 14 on the back (rear) side inserted into the hook slit 41 is assembled in a state where the front (front) side is suspended and separated from the mounting surface with the inner and outer surfaces of the peripheral wall 14 being received by the front and rear facing surfaces 42, 42 and the peripheral wall 14 on the front (rear) side is slightly inclined forward.
As described above, when the facing surface 42 on the front side of the hook-and-loop slit 41 constituting the mounting structure 40 is formed by the inclined surface inclined upward in the direction away from the cover 21, the outer holder 13 can be mounted so as to be separated from the electric shaver by inserting the upper side of the peripheral wall 14 of the hook-and-loop slit 41. Therefore, when the electric shaver is attached to and detached from the protective cover C to which the outer blade holder 13 is attached to the attachment structure 40, interference between the outer blade holder 13 and the electric shaver can be avoided as much as possible. When the electric shaver attached to the protective cover C is placed in an inverted posture and the outer blade holder 13 is attached to and detached from the hook-and-hold slit 41, the electric shaver can be attached while approaching the cap 21 side during attachment, and can be detached while separating from the cap 21 during detachment. With this point, interference between the outer cutter holder 13 and the electric shaver can be avoided.
The mounting structure 40 is preferably provided at a height of less than half of the overall height dimension of the electric shaver mounted to the protective cover C. This can prevent the center of gravity of the electric shaver attached to the protective cover C from moving upward when the outer holder 13 is attached to the attachment structure 40. Therefore, the electric shaver can be prevented from being unstable in balance and from falling over. Further, when the outer holder 13 is dropped from the mounting structure 40, the drop distance is small, and accordingly, damage to the outer holder 13 can be avoided. The mounting structure 40 of the present embodiment is provided on the support legs 27 near the mounting surface, and therefore, is sufficiently provided on the lower side compared to half of the full height of the electric shaver, and the center of gravity position is prevented from moving to the upper side.
The protective cover C is provided with an upright posture holding portion 44, and the upright posture holding portion 44 is used for holding and placing the electric shaver in an upright posture when the protective cover C is placed with the bottom wall 22 facing the placement surface. As shown in fig. 8 and 9, the upright posture holding portion 44 is provided on the front (front) side of the lid portion 21 facing the attachment structure 40, and is constituted by a pair of support legs 27, a bridge wall 45 bridging the upper edges of the support legs 27, and a notch 46 provided on the front wall 24 below the main body escape portion 28 and having a narrower left-right width than the escape portion 28. The inner surfaces of the pair of support legs 27 and the bridging wall 45 are formed in a semicircular arc shape corresponding to the contour shape of the lower end of the main body 1 in plan view. In a state where the electric shaver is mounted on the upright posture holding portion 44, the lower end of the electric shaver faces the mounting structure 40 on the front side of the cover portion 21, and is held in the space surrounded by the pair of support legs 27 and the bridge wall 45, and the lower surface of the main body portion 1 is received by the bottom surface of the cutout 46. The left and right side surfaces of the middle portion of the main body 1 are sandwiched between a pair of support pieces 38 of the support arm 36. The electric shaver attached to the upright posture holding portion 44 is held in an upright posture in which the electric shaver is tilted backward (see fig. 9).
As described above, when the upright posture holding portion 44 is provided on the protective cover C, the electric shaver can be temporarily placed on the protective cover C in the middle of shaving. Accordingly, when the grasping mode of the electric shaver is to be changed, the electric shaver can be temporarily placed in the upright posture holding portion 44 in the upright posture and can be grasped again in a desired grasping mode, and therefore, the usability of the electric shaver can be improved.
When the electric shaver attached to the upright posture holding portion 44 is held in the upright posture in which the electric shaver is tilted backward, the center of gravity of the electric shaver located near the center of the upper and lower sides can be brought closer to the mounting surface than in the case of holding in the upright posture.
In the mounting structure 40 in which the lower end of the electric shaver faces the front side of the cover portion 21, when the center of gravity of the electric shaver is positioned above the cover portion 21, the lower end of the electric shaver is positioned on the front side of the center of the cover portion 21, and the backward tilt angle of the electric shaver can be increased accordingly. Therefore, the instability of the balance of the electric shaver can be further suppressed. In addition, compared to the case where the upright posture holding portion 44 is formed on the inner surface of the lid portion 21, the structure of the inner surface of the lid portion 21 is simplified, and the protective cover can be prevented from being enlarged.
Further, according to the upright posture holding portion 44 as described above, the lower end of the electric shaver is surrounded by the pair of support legs 27 and the bridge wall 45 to prevent rattling, and the electric shaver can be temporarily placed on the upright posture holding portion 44 in a more stable state.
Since the left and right side surfaces of the middle portion of the main body 1 of the electric shaver attached to the upright posture holding portion 44 are held by the support pieces 38 of the support arms 36, the attachment state of the electric shaver to the protective cover C can be secured as in the inverted posture described above, and the stability of the electric shaver placed thereon can be improved.
The protective cover C with the electric shaver mounted thereon can be placed in a lying posture in which the front surface of the main body 1 faces the placement surface and in a lying posture in which the back surface of the main body 1 faces the placement surface. As shown in fig. 10 (a), in the recumbent posture of the former, the pair of support legs 27 located on the side of the mounting surface (rear surface) and the support projection 48 (a part of the arm base 37) provided on the front end rear surface of the arm base 37 are in contact with the mounting surface, and the switch 8 disposed on the front surface of the main body 1 is separated from the mounting surface. In the latter lying posture, as shown in fig. 10 (b), the pair of support legs 27 located on the side of the mounting surface (front surface) and a part of the main body 1 are in contact with the mounting surface, and the pusher unit 9 disposed on the back surface of the main body 1 is separated from the mounting surface.
As described above, in each lying posture, the switch 8 or the pusher unit 9 is supported by the support legs 27 in a state of being suspended and separated from the mounting surface of the protective cover C, and the switch 8 or the pusher unit 9 can be prevented from being damaged by contact with the mounting surface. In each lying posture, the pair of support legs 27 and the support projection 48, or the pair of support legs 27 and a part of the main body 1, are in contact with the placement surface at three points, and therefore, the user can place the article in the lying posture in a stable state without rattling. Since the support projection 48 is provided at the tip of the arm base 37, abrasion of the arm base 37 can be prevented, and the durability of the protective cover C can be improved by avoiding contact of the arm base 37 with the mounting surface. Further, in the lying posture in which the front surface of the main body 1 faces the placement surface, the arm base 37 is interposed between the main body 1 and the placement surface, and therefore, the front surface of the main body 1 is prevented from coming into contact with the placement surface and the main body 1 is prevented from being damaged or broken.
(embodiment 2) fig. 11 to 14 show embodiment 2 of the protective cover of the present invention. In the present embodiment, the point is that the upright posture holding portion 44 is eliminated, which is greatly different from the above-described embodiment 1.
