Sie sind allerdings relativ aufwendig konstruiert und/oder umständlich zu bedienen.Although with the known cleaning devices can be achieved in part very good cleaning results. However, they are relatively expensive to construct and / or cumbersome to use.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Reinigungsvorrichtung für einen Rasierapparat so auszubilden, daß sie kostengünstig hergestellt werden kann und bei einem akzeptablen Bedienungskomfort ein sehr gutes Reinigungsergebnis liefert.The invention has the object of providing a cleaning device for a razor in such a way that it can be produced inexpensively and provides a very good cleaning result with an acceptable ease of use.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Reinigungsvorrichtung mit der Merkmalskombination des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a cleaning device with the combination of features of
Die erfindungsgemäße Reinigungsvorrichtung für einen Rasierapparat weist einen Behälter zur Aufnahme des Rasierapparats auf, wobei der Behälter wenigstens partiell mit einer Reinigungsflüssigkeit gefüllt ist. Die Besonderheit der erfindungsgemäßen Reinigungsvorrichtung besteht darin, daß eine Einrichtung zur Begrenzung der Eintauchtiefe des Rasierapparats in den Behälter abhängig vom Füllstand der Reinigungsflüssigkeit vorgesehen ist.The razor cleaning device according to the invention has a container for holding the razor, wherein the container is at least partially filled with a cleaning liquid. The peculiarity of the cleaning device according to the invention is that a device for limiting the depth of immersion of the shaver in the container is provided depending on the level of the cleaning liquid.
Die Erfindung hat den Vorteil, daß ein sehr gutes Reinigungsergebnis mit einem relativ geringen Aufwand erzielbar ist. Dabei wirkt es sich besonders vorteilhaft aus, daß keine Fördereinrichtung für die Reinigungsflüssigkeit benötigt wird und auch keine sonstigen elektrischen oder elektronischen Komponenten erforderlich sind. Durch die erfindungsgemäß vorgesehene Begrenzungseinrichtung wird erreicht, daß der Rasierapparat unabhängig vom Füllstand der Reinigungsflüssigkeit im Behälter immer bis zum gleichen Niveau mit Reinigungsflüssigkeit benetzt wird. Ein weiterer Vorteil besteht in der einfachen Bedienbarkeit der erfindungsgemäßen Reinigungsvorrichtung. Schließlich ist es noch von Vorteil, daß es beim Betrieb der erfindungsgemäßen Reinigungsvorrichtung allenfalls zu einer geringen Umwälzung der Reinigungsflüssigkeit kommt, so daß vom Rasierapparat abgelöste Haarteilchen oder andere Verschmutzungen nahezu ungestört sedimentieren können und für den Reinigungsvorgang somit jeweils eine relativ saubere Reinigungsflüssigkeit zur Verfügung steht.The invention has the advantage that a very good cleaning result can be achieved with relatively little effort. It has a particularly advantageous that no conveyor is required for the cleaning liquid and no other electrical or electronic components are required. By inventively provided limiting device ensures that the shaver is always wetted regardless of the level of the cleaning liquid in the container to the same level with cleaning liquid. Another advantage is the ease of use of the cleaning device according to the invention. Finally, it is still advantageous that at most the operation of the cleaning device according to the invention leads to a slight circulation of the cleaning liquid, so that detached from the shaver hair particles or other contaminants sediment almost undisturbed and thus for the cleaning process each have a relatively clean cleaning fluid available.
In einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Einrichtung zur Begrenzung der Eintauchtiefe als ein im Behälter angeordneter Auftriebskörper ausgebildet. Mit dem Auftriebskörper kann die Begrenzung der Eintauchtiefe einfach, kostengünstig und zuverlässig vorgenommen werden. Im Auftriebskörper kann eine muldenartige Vertiefung für den Rasierapparat ausgebildet sein. Die Vertiefung kann in wenigstens eine den Auftriebskörper vollständig durchdringende Durchströmöffnung für die Reinigungsflüssigkeit münden. Dabei ist es besonders vorteilhaft, wenn die Vertiefung an ihrer tiefsten Stelle in die Durchströmöffnung oder in eine der Durchströmöffnungen mündet, da dann ein ungehindertes Ein- und Ausströmen der Reinigungsflüssigkeit möglich ist und zudem gewährleistet ist, daß vom Rasierapparat abgelöste Haarteilchen oder andere Verschmutzungen größtenteils die Vertiefung verlassen und im Behälter absedimentieren. Der Auftriebskörper ist im Hinblick auf den sich in seiner Vertiefung einstellenden Flüssigkeitspegel vorzugsweise so dimensioniert, daß der Rasierapparat bis zu einem vorgegebenen Niveau mit Reinigungsflüssigkeit benetzt wird. Somit kann auf einfache Weise über den Auftriebskörper vorgegeben werden, welcher Bereich des Rasierapparats gereinigt werden soll. Dabei kann die Reinigungsvorrichtung beispielsweise so ausgebildet sein, daß sich der für das vorgegebene Niveau der Benetzung benötigte Flüssigkeitspegel in der Vertiefung des Auftriebskörpers bei Belastung des Auftriebskörpers mit dem Rasierapparat einstellt. Ebenso ist es auch möglich, daß der benötigte Flüssigkeitspegel bereits durch das Eigengewicht des Auftriebskörpers erreicht wird. Bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel kann die erfindungsgemäße Reinigungsvorrichtung eine Verriegelungseinrichtung zum Verriegeln des Auftriebskörpers aufweisen.In a preferred embodiment, the device for limiting the immersion depth is designed as a buoyancy body arranged in the container. With the buoyancy body, the limitation of the immersion depth can be made simple, inexpensive and reliable. In buoyancy body can be formed a trough-like depression for the shaver. The depression can open into at least one throughflow opening for the cleaning liquid that completely penetrates the buoyant body. It is particularly advantageous if the depression opens at its lowest point in the flow or in one of the flow openings, since then unhindered inflow and outflow of the cleaning liquid is possible and also ensures that detached from the shaver hair particles or other contaminants mostly Leave the well and sediment in the container. The buoyant body is preferably dimensioned with respect to the liquid level that settles in its depression so that the shaver is wetted with cleaning liquid up to a predetermined level. Thus, it can be specified in a simple manner on the buoyancy body, which area of the shaver to be cleaned. In this case, the cleaning device may for example be designed so that the liquid level required for the given level of wetting in the recess of the buoyant body is set when the buoyant body is loaded with the shaver. Likewise, it is also possible that the required liquid level is already achieved by the weight of the buoyant body. In this embodiment, the cleaning device according to the invention may comprise a locking device for locking the buoyant body.
Die erfindungsgemäße Reinigungsvorrichtung kann eine Halteeinrichtung aufweisen, mit der der Rasierapparat in einer Position über dem Behälter fixierbar ist. Die Halteeinrichtung kann zum Trocknen des Rasierapparats nach dem Reinigungsvorgang dienen.The cleaning device according to the invention may have a holding device with which the razor can be fixed in a position above the container. The holding device can serve for drying the shaver after the cleaning process.
Im Hinblick auf einen hohen Bedienungskomfort ist es von Vorteil, wenn die Verriegelungseinrichtung durch die Halteeinrichtung aktivierbar ist. Dazu kann die Halteeinrichtung beispielsweise eine rampenförmig ausgebildete Fläche aufweisen, die mit einem Verriegelungselement zusammenwirkt. Die Halteeinrichtung kann so ausgebildet sein, daß sie vertikal zwischen einer oberen und einer unteren Position verschiebbar ist. In diesem Fall kann der Auftriebskörper Mittel zum Begrenzen der Abwärtsbewegung der Halteeinrichtung aufweisen.With regard to a high ease of operation, it is advantageous if the locking device can be activated by the holding device. For this purpose, the holding device, for example, have a ramp-shaped surface which cooperates with a locking element. The holding device may be formed so that it is vertically displaceable between an upper and a lower position. In this case, the buoyant body may comprise means for limiting the downward movement of the holding device.
Weiterhin ist es auch möglich, bei der erfindungsgemäßen Reinigungsvorrichtung eine Ablagemulde für den Rasierapparat vorzusehen. Auf eine Halteeinrichtung als Trocknungsständer für den Rasierapparat kann dann verzichtet werden.Furthermore, it is also possible to provide a storage trough for the shaver in the cleaning device according to the invention. On a holding device as a drying rack for the shaver can then be dispensed with.
Bei allen Ausführungsbeispielen der erfindungsgemäßen Reinigungsvorrichtung kann der Behälter ein Sichtfenster zum Ablesen des Füllstands der Reinigungsflüssigkeit aufweisen. Eine derartige Füllstandskontrolle läßt sich mit wenig Aufwand realisieren und ist sehr zuverlässig und präzise.In all embodiments of the cleaning device according to the invention, the container may have a viewing window for reading the filling level of the cleaning liquid. Such level control can be realized with little effort and is very reliable and accurate.
Die Erfindung betrifft weiterhin ein System bestehend aus einem Rasierapparat und der erfindungsgemäßen Reinigungsvorrichtung zur Reinigung des Rasierapparats. Der Rasierapparat weist eine Betätigungseinrichtung zur Aktivierung einer Reinigungsfunktion auf, die den Rasierapparat während des Reinigungsvorgangs zeitweise in Betrieb nimmt.The invention further relates to a system consisting of a razor and the cleaning device according to the invention for cleaning the shaver. The shaver has an activation device for activating a cleaning function, which temporarily puts the shaver into operation during the cleaning process.
Das erfindungsgemäße System hat den Vorteil, daß der Rasierapparat mit einem für seine Bauart optimalen Reinigungsprogramm ausgestattet werden kann und der Aufwand für die Realisierung des Reinigungsprogramms bei der Reinigungsvorrichtung entfallen kann. Insbesondere kommt die Reinigungsvorrichtung ohne jegliche elektrische oder elektronische Komponenten aus, da die Steuerung vom Rasierapparat vorgenommen wird.The system according to the invention has the advantage that the razor can be equipped with an optimum for his design cleaning program and the cost of implementing the cleaning program can be omitted in the cleaning device. In particular, the cleaning device does not require any electrical or electronic components, since the control is carried out by the shaver.
Die Betätigungseinrichtung kann manuell bedienbar sein. Ebenso ist es auch möglich, die Betätigungseinrichtung so auszubilden, daß sie durch die Reinigungsvorrichtung bedienbar ist und somit auch noch der andernfalls für die Bedienung der Betätigungseinrichtung erforderliche Handgriff entfällt.The actuator can be manually operated. Likewise, it is also possible to form the actuator so that it can be operated by the cleaning device and thus also eliminates the otherwise required for the operation of the actuator handle.
Beim erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren zum Reinigen eines Rasierapparats wird der Rasierapparat in einen wenigstens partiell mit einer Reinigungsflüssigkeit gefüllten Behälter einer Reinigungsvorrichtung eingetaucht. Die Besonderheit besteht dabei darin, daß die Eintauchtiefe des Rasierapparats in den Behälter abhängig vom Füllstand der Reinigungsflüssigkeit begrenzt wird. Vorzugsweise wird der Rasierapparat in eine Vertiefung eines Auftriebskörpers eingeführt, die während des Reinigungsvorgangs bis zu einem vorgegebenen Pegel mit Reinigungsflüssigkeit gefüllt ist. Der Auftriebskörper kann vor dem oder beim Einführen des Rasierapparats verriegelt werden.In the inventive method for cleaning a shaver, the shaver is in a at least partially filled with a cleaning liquid container a Cleaning device immersed. The special feature consists in the fact that the depth of immersion of the razor is limited in the container depending on the level of the cleaning liquid. Preferably, the razor is inserted into a recess of a buoyant body which is filled with cleaning liquid to a predetermined level during the cleaning operation. The buoyant body may be locked prior to or during insertion of the razor.

Unabhängig davon, wie diese im einzelnen durchgeführt wird, kann durch die Inbetriebnahme des Rasierapparats 9 eine intensive Reinigungswirkung erzielt werden und es können Haarteilchen und andere Verschmutzungen aus dem Bereich des Scherkopfes 11 entfernt werden. Dies beruht auf einer Relativbewegung zwischen der Reinigungsflüssigkeit 3 und den Bestandteilen des Scherkopfes 11, die mit Hilfe des Antriebsmotors des Rasierapparats 9 erzeugt wird, so daß bei der erfindungsgemäßen Reinigungsvorrichtung 1 auf eine elektrisch betriebene Fördereinrichtung für die Reinigungsflüssigkeit 3 verzichtet werden kann. Die abgelösten Haarteilchen und Verschmutzungen können durch die Durchströmöffnung 7 auf den Boden der Kartusche 2 absinken. Der Reinigungsvorgang kann über die Dimensionierung der Betriebszeiten des Rasierapparats 9 und der dazwischen liegenden Einweichzeiten im Hinblick auf das Reinigungsergebnis und die für die Reinigung insgesamt benötigte Zeit optimiert werden.Regardless of how this is done in detail, can be achieved by the commissioning of the
Nach Beendigung des Reinigungsvorgangs wird der Rasierapparat 9 aus der Kartusche 2 entnommen und derart an der Halteeinrichtung 10 befestigt, daß der Scherkopf 11 über der Aufnahmeöffnung 8 der Kartusche 2 angeordnet ist. In dieser Position können ggf. am Scherkopf 11 verbliebene Reste der Reinigungsflüssigkeit 3 in die Kartusche 2 abtropfen. Beim Entnehmen des Rasierapparats 9 aus der Vertiefung 6 des Auftriebskörpers 5 verringert sich der Tiefgang des Auftriebskörper 5 entsprechend der reduzierten Belastung. Gleichzeitig strömt je nach Konstruktion des Auftriebskörpers 5 ein Teil oder sogar die gesamte dort vorhandene Reinigungsflüssigkeit 3 inklusive der ggf. darin enthaltenen Haarteilchen und Verschmutzungen durch die Durchströmöffnung 7 aus der Vertiefung 6 des Auftriebskörpers 5. Die Haarteilchen und Verschmutzungen sedimentieren am Boden der Kartusche 2 ab, so daß für den nächsten Reinigungsvorgang die Reinigungsflüssigkeit 3 wieder in relativ sauberem Zustand zur Verfügung steht.After completion of the cleaning operation, the
Zum Reinigen des Rasierapparats 9 wird der Schiebedeckel 15 durch seitliches Verschieben geöffnet. Anschließend wird der Rasierapparat 9 mit dem Scherkopf 11 voran in die Aufnahmeöffnung 8 eingeführt und in der Vertiefung 6 des Auftriebskörpers 5 angeordnet.

Wie aus der vorstehenden Ausführungen hervorgeht, bewegt sich beim dritten Ausführungsbeispiel der Auftriebskörper 5 nicht, während der Rasierapparat 9 von der Trocknungsposition in die Reinigungsposition und wieder zurück überführt wird. Gleichwohl begrenzt der Auftriebskörper 5 die Bewegung der Halteeinrichtung 10 und somit auch die Eintauchtiefe des Rasierapparats 9 in die Kartusche 2 beim Übergang in die Reinigungsposition abhängig vom Füllstand der Kartusche 2. Dies resultiert daraus, daß die Höhenposition des Auftriebskörpers 5 im nicht verriegelten Zustand vom Füllstand der Reinigungsflüssigkeit 3 in der Kartusche 2 abhängt und der Haken 23, durch den die Bewegung der Halteeinrichtung 10 begrenzt wird, am Auftriebskörper 5 angeordnet ist.As is apparent from the foregoing, in the third embodiment, the
