  • guard "I is provided with three sec- -tions 8 of partially cylindrical shape in cross section.
  • the central section 8 is joined with the two side sections 8 in the manner clearly illustrated in Figs. 2, 4 and 5, by means of a longitudinally extending rib 9, two such ribs being used .to secure the three sections together.
  • This rib is oi considerably thicker cross section, as illustrated in Fig. 2, than head protecting sections 8 in order to form a substantially rigid guard structure longitudinally of the head.
  • head ⁇ protecting sections 8 are formed with laterally extending side sections I0 extending laterally from the outer side edges of sections 8 in a manner shown in Figs. k2 and 5.
  • Side sections III extend in substantially parallel relation to each other, as shown in Figs. 2, 4 and 5, and with sections 8 and ribs 9 extend throughout the length of shaver heads 2, as illustrated in Fig. 1.
  • Side sections HI have a greater cross section than head protecting sections 8 in order to make them substantially inexible while sections 8 are formed to be resiliently flexible in order to provide for a limited movement of the free edges of side sections I8 toward and from each other.
  • the resiliency of the guard structure in head protecting sections 8 is such as to normally maintain side sections IIIv rin the parallel relation illustrated in Fig. 2.y l v l
