Definitions

  • shaving means cutting the hair on the skin to just above the uppermost skin layer with at least one blade.
  • the hair is not removed, but only shortened.
  • Such razors are commonly used for wet shaving, but it is also possible that a razor in the sense of the present application also a power supply (eg battery or rechargeable battery), which causes a vibration in the blade head to cause a massage effect and / or thoroughness to increase the shave.
  • a power supply eg battery or rechargeable battery
  • US2013081291A1 describes a razor with a handle with a head end to which a blade head is pivotally mounted.
  • US4332321A describes a portable razor kit with a tubular member having a receiving opening and an end having a support arm with a receptacle in the receiving opening.
  • the support arm is movable, held in two positions by a spring of biased detent, and has a blade support at the outer end.
  • the blade holder can be pivoted between the positions so that the blade can be accommodated in a cap during storage.
  • the invention relates to a razor having a handle with a ball joint socket disposed at one end and a blade head having at least one razor blade and a ball joint head, the ball joint head of the blade head and the ball joint socket of the handle forming a ball joint, and wherein the Handle an alignment member made of an elastic material having ball joint socket configured to engage a recess in the ball joint head.
  • the invention is based on the idea that a razor is more comfortable and reliable to use for shaving, whose blade head is freely rotatable by means of an arrangement in a ball joint.
  • the user is also possible to vary the degree / angle of flexibility by placing the index finger on the ball joint and / or to fix.
  • the different levels of flexibility / degrees / angles in the ball joint preferably result from the choice of material (eg different thermoplastic elastomers) and from the action of the user.
  • the handle with socket preferably consists of a solid, impact-resistant material (eg ABS (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene)) and can also be clad with handle elements such as roughened zones, ribbing and non-slip materials.
  • the blade head may also contain a care strip (balsam strip) with emulsions and nourishing oils for the care of the skin.
  • flexible shaving movements can be achieved by the rotatably freely movable blade head, which adapt to different skin areas to be shaved.
  • a particularly sensitive shave is made possible in which only little pressure is required on the razor and superfluous pressure is absorbed by the rotation of the blade head and the optional elasticity of the ball joint.
  • the blade head arranged on the ball joint adapts to the skin surface of the user "as if by itself".
  • the blades are so close and more direct to the skin, and shaving generally requires less pressure on the razor.
  • the flexibility and smoothness of the shave is inventively ensured by lower pressure on the razor and the razor blades rotating flexibly relative to the handle. The shave is so ergonomically appealing and reduces the risk of cuts.
  • the ball joint head of the blade head is releasably disposed in the ball joint socket of the handle.
  • the ball joint is not only an improved mobility of the blade head relative to the handle, but it also allows a particularly simple replacement of the blade head.
  • the use of one or more special blade (s) and / or balsam strips on the blade head enables a particularly gentle and thorough shaving and care. With only one or a few movements of the razor over the area of the skin to be shaved, it is shaved thoroughly and gently while being cared for.
  • blade heads with different blade head configuration and arrangement can be arranged at the head end.
  • the razor according to the invention is due to its flexible use advantageously for partial or full body shaving and especially for shaving under shower.
  • the razor 1 has a handle 10 for abutment in the user's hand and a blade head 20. At that end of the handle 10, which faces the head end, a ball joint socket 11 is arranged.
  • the blade head 20 has razor blades 21 and arranged on a connecting web 35 ball joint head 22, which is arranged in the ball joint socket 11 of the handle 10 and thus forms with this a ball joint, which for example the in Figures 1c and 1d illustrated rotation of the blade head 20 relative to the handle 10 allows.
  • FIG. 2a illustrates the releasability of the blade head 20 from the handle 10 by removing the condyle 22 from the socket 11 to insert a new blade head 20 when, for example, the razor blades 21 have become blunt or a blade head 20 having different razor blades 21, special blades (not shown) ) or balsam strips 24, 25 should be used.
  • the replacement of the blade heads is possible depending on the material of the ball joints.
  • the attachment of a blade head through Bouncing in the ball joint socket possible to restore a coherent connection.
  • the blade head 20 may contain a care strip (balsam strip) with emulsions and nourishing oils for the care of the skin.
  • the blade head or the ball joint can also be given a soft, medium or hard pressure application. The user can then select appropriate razors according to his needs.
