Definitions

  • the present invention which is a continuation-in-part of our U. S. application Serial No. 276,746 filed May 31, 1939, relates to hair-cutting devices and more particularly to electricallydriven razors comprising a cutting head having an apertured cutting or shear plate and a rotatable cutter.
  • the razors of the type described in our abovementioned application comprise a shear plate provided with radial or substantially radial slits and preferably with a central cavity through the wall of which these slits extend.
  • a rotary cutter cooperates with this ate which is stationary with respect to the razor.
  • the main object of our invention is to overcome the above disadvantage and for this purpose we move the shear plate with respect to the cutter and at a considerably lower speed.
  • ovember 10, 1938 have a width of about of a shaft 3 extending through the end wall 26 of the housing.
  • a cup-shaped metal member or shear plate 2 whose upper end has a central depression or cavity 6 which forms an annular surface provided with a large number of radial or substantially radial slits i.
  • the slits l which may 0.2 extend'across the annular surface and through the wall 5 of cavity 6 and the outer wall i of member 2.
  • the slits are widened at their ends to guide the hair into the same.
  • Member 2 has an annular flange I 6 which is rotatably secured between the upper edge of housing H and a metal mit I! screwed onto the end of housing I I.
  • a cutter t having two cutting edges 8 which are pressed against the inner surface of the annular portionof member 2 by spring 88.
  • the cutter i has two diametrically opposite cutting edges, but, we prefer to use three cutting edges located 120 apart because this uniformly distributes the pressure exerted on shaft 3 by spring it.
  • the edges 8 preferably make a sharp angle with the edges of .the slits i.
  • member 2 is rotated at a low speed with respect to the cutter t.
  • a gear i 0 fixedly mounted on shaft 3 drives a gear I 2 rotatably mounted on a pin l9 secured to wall 24.
  • the lower end l3 of member 2v is provided with internal teeth engaging the gear l2 and with a flange 20 which serves to support gear l2.
  • member 2 is driven from shaft 3 in a direction opposite to the direction of shaft 3 and cutter t.
  • the cutter d is rotated at a relatively high speed for instance between about 6,000 and 15,000 revolutions per minute.
  • FIG. 1 is a sectionized side-view of a portion of a razor embodying the invention.
  • Fig. 2 is a section along .line 2-2 of Figure 1.
  • Fig. 3 is a section on reduced scale taken along line 3'3 of Figure 1.
  • the razor illustrated in the drawing comprises a hollow housing H of insulating material such as Bakelite, in which is supported an electric motor l5 having a shaft 23.
  • Shaft 23 has a flattened end which fits into a slot 25 in the end which is much lower and of a quite difierent order of magnitude, for instance between and 120 revolutions about revolutions per minute.
  • the razor according to the invention gives entirely satisfactory results regardless of how it is moved over the surface to be shaved i. e. whether it is moved vertically,
  • shear plate may be rotated in the same direction as the cutter.
  • shear plate, cutter and slits may be of various forms and arrangements.
  • a shear plate provided with a large number of substantially radiallyextending slits adapted to receive the hair to be cut, a cutter cooperating with said shear plate, means to rotate said cutter at a high speed includinga motor, and means to rotate said shear plate at a speed which is low with respect to the speed of said cutter.
  • a shear plate provided with a plurality of substantially radially-extending slits adapted to receive the hair to be cut, a cutter cooperating with said shear plate, means to rotate said cutter at a high speed and means to rotate said shear plate at a speed between about it) and 120 revolutions per minute.
  • a shear plate provided with a large number of substantially radiallyextending slits adapted to receive the hair to be cut, a cutter cooperating with said shear plate, means to rotate said cutter at a high speed including a motor, and means to rotate said shear plate in a direction opposite to thedirection of rotation of the cutter and at a speed of between about 40 and 120 revolutions per minute.
  • a shear plate provided with a large number of substantially radiallyextending slits adapted to receive the hair to be cut
  • a cutter cooperating with said shear plate, means to rotate said cutter at a speed between about 6000 and 12,000 revolutions per minute and means to rotate said shear plate in a direction opposite to the direction of rotation of'the cutter and at a speed 01' between about 40 and 120 revolutions per minute.
  • a shear plate provided with a large number of substantially radiallyextending slits adapted to receive the hair to be cut, a cutter cooperating with said shear plate, means to rotate said cutter at a high speed including a motor, and means to rotate said shear plate in a direction opposite to the direction of rotation of the cutter including gearing between said motor and the shear plate.
