Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a small-sized electric shaver for travel and the like.

[Background technology]

Conventionally, small electric shavers for travel, especially those that are small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, have a short overall length, making them difficult to operate.
In particular, the reciprocating blade type generates large vibrations, resulting in poor operability.

[Purpose of the invention]

An object of the present invention is to provide an electric shaver that is small in size, has good storage and portability, and is easy to use.

[Disclosure of the invention]

The electric shaver of the present invention includes: a first casing having a blade portion, in which a lower motor accommodating portion of the blade portion and a notch recess are arranged in parallel;
The second casing is removably attached to the lower part of the motor accommodating part and inside the notch recess of the casing.

According to this configuration, the overall length is increased by attaching the second casing below the motor housing portion of the first casing. Therefore, it is easy to use even though it is small. Furthermore, when not in use, the second casing can be stored in the notch recess of the first casing, making it compact and easy to store and carry. Since the cutout recess is provided at a position opposite to the blade, the width of the blade does not become narrow.

Embodiment An embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. This electric shaver includes a first casing A having a blade part 1 and a motor accommodating part 30 and a notch recess 2 arranged in parallel below the blade part 1; Lower part and notch recess 2
The second casing B is provided with a second casing B that can be freely rearranged.

The first casing A includes a driver 3, a motor 4,
Outer blade frame 19, blade attachment/detachment button 17, button push-up spring 1
8 is installed. Two metal fittings 8 and 9 are attached to the terminal portion of the motor accommodating portion 4. An eccentric cam 15 is attached to the tip of the motor shaft, and an eccentric cam pin 1
6 engages with the driver 3. The drive element 3 has an inner cutter 1'
is installed. The outer blade frame 19 is fixed to the first casing A by engaging with the blade attachment/detachment button 17,
It has the function of stopping outer blade 1. First casing A
A switch handle (not shown) is arranged on the
Open and close the metal fittings 7 and 8.

The second casing B forms a space for housing the battery 6. The battery 6 is in the second casing B
The push-up springs 14 of the battery cover 13 are arranged in parallel in the
Then, it is pressed against the metal fittings 10 and 11. The second casing B has an engagement protrusion 2 having a T-shaped cross section at the upper end.
1, and an engagement groove 2 that engages with the engagement protrusion 21.
0 and 22 are the upper end surface of the notch recess 2 of the first casing A and the motor accommodating portion 3 of the first casing A.
It is formed on the bottom surface of 0.

Operation During use, the second casing B is pulled out from the state shown in FIG. 1A and engaged with the engagement groove 22 at the bottom of the first casing A (states shown in FIGS. 1C and 2). As a result, the metal fittings 9 and 10 and the metal fittings 7 and 11 come into contact with each other, forming a circuit through the switch. When the switch is turned on, the inner cutter 1' moves back and forth through the motor 4 and driver 3. do.

Although it operates in this way, when in use, the second casing B is inserted into the motor housing section 3 of the first casing A.
Since it is added and installed below 0, the total length becomes longer. Therefore, it is easy to use even though it is small. In addition, when not in use, the second casing B is stored in the notch recess 2 lined up on the side of the motor accommodating portion 30 of the first casing A, so it can be stored compactly.
Good storage and portability. Since the cutout recess 2 is provided at a position opposite to the outer cutter 1, the width of the outer cutter 1 does not become narrower.

FIG. 3 shows another embodiment. In this example, the second casing B is connected to the first casing A, and the hinge 2
4, which are connected so that they can rotate 180 degrees. In this case as well, it can be made longer when in use and shorter when stored. In use, the hook 25 of the second casing B interengages with the hook 26 of the first casing A. The rest is the same as the first embodiment.

〔Effect of the invention〕

The electric shaver of the present invention is convenient to use because the grip part can be made long by the motor accommodating part of the first casing and the second casing when in use, and when not in use, the second casing can be attached to the first casing. It can be stored in the notch recess of the casing to make it compact and has the advantage of good storage and portability.
