Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the subject device reduced in irritation to the skin, can follow the irregularity of the skin and has a simple structure, by a method wherein a member to be applied to the skin, which is provided on at least one side of a body hair- removing means, is elastically supported on a main body or a frame, in order that the distance between the member and the body hair-removing means can be varied in the progressive direction of the main body. CONSTITUTION:A guide 39 is composed so that a pair of member 391 to be applied to the skin can be joined each other on both sides of a body hair-removing means. One of the members 391 acts as a skin-depressing part 392 and the other as a skin- extending part 393. In this way, irritation is lightened, and long hairs and laid hairs are raised, and thus the efficiency introducing these hairs to the clearance between a fixed catch 31B and a movable catch 32 is hightened. A pair of the member 391 each are joined to the guide 39 with a pair of elastic legs 392, and their elastic supports each are formed almost at the center between a pair of the members 391. Therefore, the members 391 can come in and out in depressed direction against the skin and can be moved in the progressive direction of a main body. As the result of it, even if the skin is accidentally pinched between the fixed catch 31B and the member 391, its shock is lightened.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a hair removal device of this type, as shown in European Patent No. 0328426, it is provided with a plurality of disk-shaped rotary claws, and when these rotary claws rotate, a rotary shaft is provided. There is one in which a rotating claw is swung in the direction of the rotation axis by a lever that reciprocates in the direction to open and close the rotating claw.

[0003]

However, the conventional hair removing device of this type has a problem due to the following reasons. That is, as shown in FIG. 23, the rotary nail 20 for hair removal is designed to pull out hair by coming into contact with the skin through the opening 22 of the lid 21 at the time of hair removal. The skin may be caught between the end surface of the opening 22 and the rotary nail 20. Therefore, if the opening 22 is enlarged to increase the distance between the end surface and the epilating means, the end of the opening 22 serving as the skin contact portion is separated from the rotary nail 20 serving as the epilating means, so that the part of the epilation that is close to the skin can be pressed. However, there is a problem in that the skin is pulled together with the hair during hair removal, the distance traveled by the skin becomes longer, and irritation when hair is removed becomes greater.

The present invention was invented in view of the problems of the above-mentioned conventional examples, and an object thereof is to reduce irritation at the time of hair loss and to follow unevenness of the skin. Another object of the present invention is to provide a hair removing device which has a simple structure and can prevent deformation due to dropping or the like.

[0005]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems of the conventional example, the epilating apparatus of the present invention has an epilating means provided on a frame provided at the tip of the main body, and the epilating means is provided on at least one side of the epilating means. It is characterized in that a patch member is provided, and the skin patch member is elastically supported by the main body or the frame at a variable distance with respect to the epilating means in the traveling direction of the main body.

Further, an L-shaped elastic leg may be provided so that the skin contact member can move in the vertical direction with respect to the skin and the traveling direction of the main body. Further, the skin contact member may be formed with a comb. Further, the skin contact member may be formed by a trimmer.
Further, the skin contact member may be formed integrally with the frame.

Furthermore, the skin contact member may be configured to be retractable from the frame.

[0008]

According to the present invention, a skin contact member is provided on at least one side of the epilation means, and the skin contact member is elastically supported by the main body or the frame at a variable distance with respect to the epilation means in the traveling direction of the main body. Then, when the body is advanced with the skin contact member applied to the skin, the skin contact member on the front side in the moving direction approaches the hair removal means side to press the skin and extend the skin to reduce hair loss, in order to pull out the hair. You can do it. Further, when the skin contact member is behind the advancing direction, the skin contact member is moved in a direction away from the epilation means to prevent the skin from being pinched without slackening the skin.
Also, when the main body is used so as to move in the direction opposite to the advancing direction, the skin contact member moves in the direction opposite to the above with respect to the hair removing means, and the same effect is brought about.

If L-shaped elastic legs are provided so that the skin-contact member can move vertically with respect to the skin and in the traveling direction of the main body, the skin contact is further improved and the stimulation of hair loss is reduced. It is possible to prevent the skin from being pinched. Also,
When the skin-contacting member is formed of a comb, the hair can be adjusted to improve the introduction to the epilating means.

Further, when the skin contact member is formed of a trimmer, the hair is trimmed short, the hair is introduced into the hair removing means well, and the root of the hair can be pinched, so that irritation can be reduced. Further, if the skin contact member is formed integrally with the frame, the number of parts can be reduced. Furthermore, when the skin contact member is configured to be retractable in the frame, it is possible to prevent the skin contact member from being damaged due to the impact on the skin caused by pressing against the skin and the impact such as dropping.

If L-shaped elastic legs are provided so that the skin-contact member can move vertically with respect to the skin and in the direction of movement of the main body, skin contact is further improved, and the stimulation of hair loss is reduced. It is possible to prevent the skin from being pinched, which makes it even easier to use. In addition, when the skin contact member is formed of a comb, the hair can be regulated and introduced into the epilating means better, and the usability is further improved.

Further, when the skin contact member is formed of a trimmer, the hair is trimmed so that it can be easily introduced into the hair removing means and the root of the hair can be pinched, so that irritation can be reduced. .. Further, if the skin contact member is formed integrally with the frame, the number of parts can be reduced and the structure can be simplified.

Furthermore, if the skin contact member is configured to be retractable from the frame, it is possible to prevent the skin contact member from being damaged by an impact such as an irritation to the skin caused by pressing against the skin or an impact such as dropping.
