Definitions
- the invention relates to a system for personal body care, comprising a holder which holds a fluid, a pump for pumping the fluid, and an appliance for personal body care, comprising a treatment device for carrying out a body-care treatment under the influence of the fluid.
- the invention further relates to an assembly of a holder for holding a fluid and such a pump.
- the invention also relates to an appliance for personal body care, comprising a treatment device for carrying out a body-care treatment under the influence of a fluid, which appliance has a space for accommodating a holder and a pump for pumping the fluid from the holder to an outlet opening of the appliance.
- the known appliance is a shaver having a holder with a shaving liquid and a pump for pumping the shaving liquid from the holder to a discharge opening of the shaver.
- the known system comprises a shaver and a cartridge.
- the cartridge comprises a rigid holder holding a shaving liquid and a pump. By pressing on the holder the shaving liquid can be pumped to an outlet opening near a shaving head of the shaver. By replacing the cartridge the system is provided with a new load of shaving liquid and a new pump.
- a drawback of the known system is that the holder is comparatively large in relation to the appliance, so that the holder adversely affects the ergonomics of the system.
- the system in accordance with the invention is characterized in that the holder comprises a flexible wall, and - the pump is detachable from the holder and is detachable from the appliance.
- the holder comprises a flexible wall
- the pump is detachable from the holder and is detachable from the appliance.
- the holder Since the holder has a flexible wall and the size of the holder is comparatively small in relation to the appliance the holder can be accommodated more easily in an appliance having an ergonomic shape.
- the pump Since the pump is also detachable from the appliance the pump can still be replaced at regular intervals. As a pump is difficult to clean regular replacement is a good method of guaranteeing the hygiene of the system.
- the pump is yet replaced at regular intervals without the cost of replacing a pump each time that an empty holder is replaced by a full holder.
- the measures in accordance with the invention make it possible to market a personal care system which appeals to the customer owing to the low cost, great hygiene and ease of handling.
- An embodiment of the system in accordance with the invention has the characteristic features as claimed in Claim 2. Owing to these measures the system can readily be assembled by sliding the suction tube into the outlet channel and coupling the holder to the appliance. As a result of this, the user friendliness of the system is further improved.
- An embodiment of the system in accordance with the invention has the characteristic features as claimed in Claim 3. Owing to these measures the pump is no longer in its fixed condition when the holder is detached from the appliance. As a result of this, the pump is easy to replace.
- the system is then constructed in such a manner that the pump is detached together with the holder when the latter is detached from the appliance, for example by means of a detachable snap coupling between the pump and the holder. In that case the pump is removed from the space when the holder is detached from the appliance, so that the users can readily take hold of the pump in order to replace it or in order to couple it to another holder.
- An embodiment of the system in accordance with the invention is characterized in that the flexible wall comprises a layer of aluminum having a thickness of between 6 and 12 micrometers. Owing to this measure the wall of the holder is flexible enough to adapt to a decreasing content of the holder without the pressure in the holder differing significantly from the pressure in the environment of the holder. At the same time the holder is rigid enough to withstand some force so that the holder can readily be coupled to the pump and a pump-and-holder assembly can readily be slid into an appliance without fluid being expelled from the holder, neither directly nor via the pump.
- An embodiment of the system in accordance with the invention is characterized in that the treatment device is adapted to shave off hairs.
- the invention is particularly advantageous in such a system because such a system should be easy to handle.
- An embodiment of the system in accordance with the invention is characterized in that the treatment device comprises a stationary cutter.
- Such a shaving system is intended for use in combination with a fluid, for which the appliance should be moved over the skin in strokes.
- An embodiment of the system in accordance with the invention is characterized in that the treatment device comprises a movable shaving member and a drive mechanism for driving the shaving member. Owing to the measures in accordance with the invention it is possible to accommodate a holder with a fluid in the appliance as well as to accommodate the drive mechanism in the appliance without the ease of handling of the system being impaired.
- An embodiment of the system in accordance with the invention is characterized in that the treatment device is adapted to depilate. Owing to the measures in accordance with the invention it is readily possible to accommodate a holder with a fluid in the appliance as well as to accommodate a treatment device for depilation in the appliance without the ease of handling of the system being impaired.
- An embodiment of the appliance in accordance with the invention is characterized in that the treatment device is adapted to massage a human body. Owing to the measures in accordance with the invention it is readily possible to accommodate a holder with a fluid in the appliance as well as to accommodate a treatment device for body massage in the appliance without the ease of handling of the system being impaired.
- the appliance in accordance with the invention is characterized m that the appliance comprises a rigid wall portion which is movable with respect to the appliance from a first position to a second position, in which first position the space is accessible to mount and/or remove the holder and the pump, and in which second position the holder and the pump are retained in the space. Owing to these measures a holder with a flexible wall can readily be replaced without the pressure being exerted on the flexible wall by the user. This substantially reduces the likelihood of fluid leaking from the holder during replacement.
- An embodiment of the appliance in accordance with the invention is characterized in that the wall portion comprises positioning means for positioning the holder.
- the wall portion can serve as a handle for holding the holder during mounting or removal of the pump. Subsequently, the wall portion with holder and pump can be moved to the second position, the holder being blocked in the positioning means and the pump being retained via the holder.
- An embodiment of the appliance in accordance with the invention is characterized in that the wall portion is convex. A convex wall portion is convenient to hold and provides room to accommodate the holder at its inner side.

- the treatment device comp ⁇ ses an elect ⁇ c motor 1 1 , which can be switched on by means of a push-button 19 on the outside of the appliance 10
- the electnc motor 11 cames a pinion 11a, which is in mesh with a gear wheel 14a which forms part of a coupling pin 14.
- the coupling pm 14 engages with a part 31a of a shaving member in the form of a rotatable cutter 31 by means of a pan 14b.
- the cutter 31 is adapted for shaving in conjunction with a fluid.
- the cutter 31 forms part of a shaving head 30 which is moved over the skin of the user du ⁇ ng shavin .
- the fluid serves to reduce the friction between the snaving head 30 and the skin of the user.
- the shaver 10 has a space 15 for accommodaung a holder 40 holding the fluid and for accommodating a pump 20.
- the pump 20 serves for pumping the fluid from the holder 40 to an outlet opening 32 of the appliance 10.
- the appliance 10 has a push-button 12 by means of which the pump 20 can be d ⁇ ven via a d ⁇ ve mechanism, not shown.
- the holder 40 comprises a coupling member 42 having a tubular outlet channel 43.
- the holder 43 further comp ⁇ ses a flexible wall 41 welded to the couplmg member 42.
- the flexible wall consists of a laminate comprising a polyethylene layer of 70 micrometers thickness, an aluminum layer of 9 micrometers thickness and a 12 micrometer PET layer
- the polyethylene layer serves to form a sealed connection to the coupling member 42
- the aluminum layer serves to obtain an imperforate and slighdy ⁇ gid wall
- the PET layer serves to protect the aluminum layer and to allow printing.
- the coupling member 42 of the holder 40 is locked to a wall poruon 18 of the appliance 10 via posmoning means, in the present case a slot 16 (see Figure 3).
- the pump 20 comp ⁇ ses a suction tube 21 slid into the tubular outiet channel 43 of the coupling member 42.
- the pump 20 is retained in the space 15 by means of the coupling member 42 and the slot 16.
- the wall portion 18 can be removed from the shaver 10 by moving it in the direction 5. Removal of the wall portion 18 from the shaver 10 allows the holder 40 and/or the pump 20 to be replaced.
- FIG. 2 shows the holder 40 and the pump 20 belonging to the first embodiment of the system in accordance with the invention.
- the pump 20 can be coupled to the holder 40 by sliding the suction tube 21 into the coupling member 42 in the direction 6
- the holder 40 is then opened automatically, for example m that a thin wall is perforated or a sealing cap is pressed inward.
- FIG 3 shows the wall portion 18 and an assembly compnsing the pump 20 and the holder 40.
- the wall portion 18 has a slot 16 adapted to retain the coupling member 42 of the holder 40.
- the slot 16 is accessible to mount or remove the holder 40
- the coupling member 42 can be slid into the slot 16 in a direction 7. Since the direction 7 is o ⁇ ented transversely to the direction 6 indicated in Figure 2, the slot 16 can take up the forces exerted on the coupling member by the pump 20 dunng insertion of the suction tube 21 into the coupling member 42. As a result of this, the wall portion 18 can serve to carry the holder 40 du ⁇ ng removal or mounung of the pump 20.
- the wall portion 18 has a convex shape, so that du ⁇ ng mounting or removal of the pump 20 it is easy for the user to avoid that he exerts pressure on the flexible wall 41 of the holder 40. This precludes leakage.
- Figure 4 shows the appliance 10 and an assembly of the wall poruon 18, the pump 20 and the holder 40, not shown. The assembly can be connected to the appliance 10 by sliding it onto the appliance 10 in a direction 8.

- the holder 140 comp ⁇ ses a flexible wall 141 and a comparatively ⁇ gid coupling member 142, which have been formed together in a single mold by means of a blow-molding process.
- the wall portion 118 has a first slot 116 for retaining the holder 140 and a second slot 117 for retaining the pump 120.
- the coupling member 142 of the hol ⁇ er 140 should first be fitted into the slot 116 and subsequently the pump 120 should fitted into the slot 117.
- Figure 6 shows the situation in which the coupling member 141 of the holder 140 has engaged the slot 116 in the wall portion 118.
- the pump 120 has a guide 125
- FIG 7 shows the pump 120, the holder 140 and the wall portion 118 in an assembled condition.
- the coupling member 142 is retained in the slot 116 by means of the pump 120 because the mounting direction 107 for the coupling member 142 and the mounting direction 106 for the pump 120 are oriented transversely to one another and the suction tube 121 of the pump 120 engages in the coupling member 142.
- the construction requires that a user should first mount the holder 140 in the wall portion 118 before he can mount the pump 120. This reduces the risk of leakage because the user is unlikely to exert pressure on the flexible wall 141 of the holder during mounting of the pump.
