Definitions

  • the object of the present invention is to provide an improved safety razor, and more particularly an improved holder or handle for a known type of safety razor blades, said handle being formed from a single piece of wire or like material, bent to form not only a holder for the blade but a guard for both the cutting edge and the ends of the blade.
  • the material is also so shaped as to impose a spring like tensioning upon the parts to the end that the razor blade will he
  • the razor comprises a blade of a known form comprising the blade body proper 5, and a backing 6. The ends of these blades are deeply notched at l and I utilize these notchesin the engagement and support of the blade with and upon the blade carrying handle which constitutes the novel feature of my invention.
  • This handle is made from a single piece of material, such as a relatively heavy wire, that is stout enough to retain its shape under the conditions of use and stiff enough to impart re-w siliency to the parts as hereinafter set forth.
  • the ends of the wire are twisted together, or otherwise united at 8 to constitute a stout handle and the bight portion of the wire is bent to form a transverse horizontal bar '9, which lies close to and forms a guard for the cutting edge of the blade.
  • Vertical extensions in at the ends of guard 9 lie close enough to the ends of the blade to constitute guards for said ends.
  • the upper ends of the extensions H] are connected by forwardly extending runs H to the forward ends of the handle runs I2, which, as before stated, are twisted together or otherwise united at 8. Ncches it are formed in the faces of the handle runs ii.
  • the vertical extension I are of such rethe vertical runs siliency as to resist movement of the handle runs away from each other. and thus when a blade is snapped into place it is securely held. It cannot move upwardly or downwardly because of the engagement of the forward portions of the handle runs in the notches I; it cannot move sidewise because of the presence of these handle runs and it cannot move outwardly or inwardly because of its engagement in the notches I3.
  • This article is light, sturdy, easy to keep clean, may be made at a low cost, and has no moving parts. Its open construction yields a clear view to the user. It use saves critical materials. It is sanitary and a blade can be inserted with a minimum of time and trouble.
  • the parts do not lie in such position as to maintain the blade perpendicular to the handle, but that the handle is bent downwardly so that the blade lies at an obtuse angle to'the handle and at the proper angle for cutting.
  • the degree of inclination of the blade with respect to the handle may be varied at will, the invention not being limited in this respect.
  • a holder for safety razor blades of the type having notched ends comprising a horizontal guard bar, upstanding extensions at the ends of the guard bar constituting end guards, a pair of handle runs united at their rear ends and extending forwardly of said vertical extensions, and members uniting said handle runs and the upper ends of the upstanding extensions, the forward portions of the handle runs being shaped and dimensioned to engage in the notches of the ends of the razor blade.
  • a holder for safety razor blades of the type having notched ends comprising a horizontal guard bar, upstanding extensions at the ends of the guard bar constituting end guards, a pair of handle runs united at their rear ends and extending forwardly of said vertical extensions, and members uniting said handle runs and theupper ends of the upstanding extensions, the forward portions of the handle runs being shaped and dimensioned to engage in the notches of the ends of the razor blade, and said handle extensions having their confronting faces notched, said blade snapping into said notches and said notches being positioned to.
  • a holder for safety razor. bladesof the typehaving notched ends said holder being bent from a single piece of relatively stiff wire to form a transverse horizontal guard bar, guard extensions upstanding from the ends of the guard bar, forwardly projecting runs extending from the upstanding guard extensions and rearwardly extending and convergent handle runs leading from the forward ends of said forwardly projecting runs, the confronting faces of said handle runs having blade engaging means at a position to maintain the cutti g edge of the razor blade close to the guard bar.
