Definitions

  • the invention relates to a shaving and hair cutting device with a motor-driven shaving part consisting of a lower knife and an upper knife for cutting short hair and a spaced-apart shaving comb head consisting of a shaving knife and a shaving comb plate for cutting long hair, which is slidable on the housing of the shaving - And hair clipper is guided and a distance comb for the shaving comb head.
  • a combination of razor and hair clipper is also known (JP 63-158093 A), which is formed from a shaving part consisting of a lower knife and an upper knife for cutting short whiskers and a shaving comb head which is arranged at a distance therefrom and consists of a shaving knife and a shaving comb Hair clipper is arranged on the outside of the housing of the shaver.
  • the spacer comb can be attached to the shaving comb head. When the hair clipper is used, it is moved upwards into a working position on the outside of the shaving apparatus, so that the shaving comb head lies far above the shaving part. This increases the overall height of the shaving and hair clipper considerably.
  • the spacer comb attached to the shaving comb head can be adjusted again for cutting or trimming the hair to different cut lengths, so that the total length of the shaving and hair clipping device is extremely increased in the maximally extended position of the spacer comb.
  • the invention has for its object to design and arrange a combination of razor and hair clipper in such a way that, in addition to a very compact design of this combination, it is ensured that when the hair clipper is started up, the cutting of long hair is first carried out with a minimal cut length setting and then an adjustment is made the cut length can be achieved on shorter hair lengths.
  • the spacer comb can be plugged over the shaving part and the shaving comb head and can be locked in place on the housing of the shaving and hair clipping device, the shaving comb head being adjustable from its lowest operating position to an upper operating position and the shaving comb head in the lowest operating position has maximum distance to the tip of the distance comb.
  • the spacing comb is pushed over the shaving part and the shaving comb head.
  • the shaving comb head In order to adjust the device to different cutting lengths, only the shaving comb head is adjusted, which is moved by the slide switch. In the off switch position, the shaving comb head is at the greatest distance from the tip of the spacing comb, so that when the device is started up, hair cutting always begins with the longest cutting length setting. This prevents an unintentional hair cut. Only by an adjustment from the lower latching position 1 of the slide switch into subsequent latching positions 2, 3 and 4 is the shaving comb head set to shorter cutting lengths when the spacing comb is attached, position 4 corresponding to a position in which the cutting length is shortest. By fixing the spacer comb to the housing of the shaving and hair cutting device, the overall height of the device is not changed when the shaving comb head is adjusted for different cutting lengths, so that the combination device is very easy to handle due to the very compact design.
  • a compact design and the easy handling of the shaving and hair clipping device are obtained in that the shaving comb head is adjustable by means of a slide switch for switching the electric drive of the shaving part and / or the shaving comb head of the hair clipping device on and off.
  • the housing of the hair clipper is displaceably mounted on the housing of the shaving device for switching the common electric drive of the shaving and hair clipper on and off.
  • a compact design is obtained in that the hair clipper and the slide switch form a structural unit.
  • the shaving comb head of the hair clipper at least in its lowest operating position, lies outside the shear-active working area or below the shaving part, so that the operator is not hindered by the shaving comb head when shaving. With the spacer comb removed, the shaving comb head can also be used in its lowermost position, which corresponds to position 1, as a long hair trimmer for trimming hair roots.
  • the shaving part and the shaving comb head are driven in an oscillating manner via a single drive part which has a laterally protruding drive finger for driving the shaving comb head, which is received in a longitudinal slot is which is provided in the drivable part of the shear blade of the shaving comb head and is fixedly arranged at the upper end of the slide switch.
  • the slide switch for commissioning the device and the shaving comb head can be easily adjusted to its various working positions or detent positions by means of the switching slide.
  • the slide switch can also be designed so that it switches on the shaving part at the same time from its display in an on position. However, it is also possible to continue to adjust the slide switch, for example from its zero position to a position in which only the shaving part is switched on. It is also possible to switch the shaver and hair clipper on and off using separate switches.
  • the shaving comb head is adjustable within the fixed distance comb.
  • 1 denotes a combined shaving and hair cutting device, which consists of an elongated, narrow housing 3, in which an electric motor (not shown in the drawing) for driving a shaving part 4 and for driving a shaving comb head 5 is arranged.
  • the shaving part 4 is arranged at the upper end of the housing 3, which consists of a lower knife or blade block (not shown in the drawing) and an upper knife or a shaving blade 6 which is fastened in a shaving blade frame 7 is.
  • the shaving blade frame 7 with the shaving blade or upper knife 6 is placed over the lower knife and releasably connected to the upper end of the housing 3 by means of a snap lock.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 can only be used with the parts described for shaving and fitting.
  • a spacer comb 8 can be placed over the shaving part 4 and the shaving comb head 5 as a protective cap for transport, so that the shaving blade 6 is protected from damage.
  • a slide switch 10 is arranged laterally on the housing 3 and can be adjusted over an area A (FIG. 2) between positions 0 and 4 upwards and between positions 4 and 0 downwards.
  • the slide switch 10 is moved upward from 0 to 1
  • the shaving and hair clipping device 1 is switched on and thus the Shaving part 4 put into operation.
  • the switch is moved from a locking position 1 to a locking position 2, the shaving comb head 5 is switched on.
  • the shaving comb head 5 consists of a shaving comb plate 11 and a shaving knife 12 (FIG. 4).
  • a longitudinal slot 13 is provided in the rear of the slide switch 10, in which a drive finger 14 for driving the shear knife 12 is received, which drives the shear knife 12 back and forth when the device is switched on.
  • the drive finger 14 is located on a reciprocating drive part 15 provided at the upper end of the housing 3, which also serves to drive the lower knife of the shaving part 4 and which is driven by an electric motor, not shown in the drawing.
  • the upper, in the direction of the shaving comb head (5), end of the longitudinal slot 13 for receiving the drive finger 14 can be designed such that when the shaver is started up by moving the slide switch 10 into position 1, the drive finger 14 is not effective.
  • the longitudinal slot 13 can have an extension, for example, so that when the slide switch 10 is in a certain position, there is no drive transmission by means of the drive finger 14 to the shaving comb head 5 and only the shaving part 4 is driven.
  • the shaving comb head 5 is connected in one piece to the slide switch 10.
  • a marking scale with the latching positions 0 to 4 is indicated on the housing 3, the position 1 identifying the lowest operating position and position 4 identifying the uppermost operating position.
  • the slide switch 10 is in its off position, which is marked with 0 and in which the shaving comb head 5 has the greatest distance to the tip of the comb 8.
  • the slide switch 10 can be adjusted from the locking position 0 (off position) to the locking position 1 (on position) and in further locking positions 2, 3 and 4, the locking position 4 corresponding to a position, in which the tip of the distance comb 8 has the shortest distance B to the shaving comb head 5.
  • the shaving comb head 5 is thus put into operation during an adjustment from the locking position 0 to a locking position 1, whereby, as already explained, it is at the greatest distance from the tip of the distance comb 8, so that when the shaving and hair clipping device is switched on 1 an unintentional, excessive shortening of the hair is not possible.
  • the shaving comb head 5 when the distance comb 8 is removed, the shaving comb head 5 is arranged so that it lies far below the active working area of the shaving part 4, so that the shaving comb head 5 does not interfere with the shaving process.
  • the shaving comb head 5 can also be used for fitting, for which purpose the slide switch 10 need only be adjusted from the locking position 0 to locking position 1.
  • the shaving comb head 5 in the latching position 4, in which it lies somewhat above the shaving part 4 (see upper position of the shaving comb head 5 in FIG. 2).
  • the slide switch 10 is fixed in the individual locking positions 0 to 4 by locking elements, not shown in the drawing.
