SAFETY RAZOR.

SIDNEY WILL TTQQF Lennon. ENGLAND.
i SAFETY-EMPR- Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented oer. woe.
Application filed December 2, 1908. Serial No. 465,640.
To all 11:72am it may concern Be it known that I. Smxnv \VILLE'rr. a subject of the King of (treat Britain. resident of 593 Seven Sisters road. in the county of London and Kingdom of (treat ln'itain. have invented new and useful Improvements in Safety-Razors. of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to safety razors. and it consists in certain improvements in mounting the razor blade whereby it will always automatically adjust itself against the comb ready for use in shaving. or permit of its being turned back into such a position as to enable it to be readily withdrawn from'its clip or holder. when necessary. or to allow of the blade seat with its comb being easily cleaned. To this end the blade is carried. as usual. in a clip or holder which. according to my invention, is pivotally mounted in a SPllllQ-(Olltlolltd frame.
This frame is pivotally mounted at its ends and toward the rear of the blade seat, .the spring of said frame serving to maintain the said blade in proper angular position relatively to the blade seat and the comb atthe front edge thereof.
in order that my invention may be more .readily understood. I will now describe it fully with reference to the accompanying drawing. in which Figurev 1 is a side elevation of a safetyrazor embodying my improvements. Fig. 2 is a rear view thereof. and Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. l. but showing the position assumed by the razor blade when the spring controlled frame is retracted. Fig. 4 is a transverse section taken on the line .B, iv, of Fig. 2.
a. is the. razor blade which is furnished with a mount (1' adapted to slide into the usual clip or holder I). which latter is pivotally mounted in the frame said mount enabling the clip to obtain a firm hold of the razor blade. This frame a is pivotally mounted in lugs or arms (I, (1, depending from opposite ends of the rear edge. of the blade seat 1/ which, in my construction of safety-razor. is stationary, and around the axis of this frame 0 is coiled a spring c, one end of which rests against the blade seat r! while its opposite end engages the. frame c.
The. said spring serves. normally. to main- I tain the blade (4' in its forward or service position, and, for the. purpose o't retracting y. l l l l l l l the blade. the frame 0 is furnished with a thumb-piece c'-' by depressing which the said frame may be swung amt the blade (1 retracted, as shown in Fig. 3. When in this position. the blade may be turned back, as shown in dotted lines in ie aforesaid figure. and so be brought into such a position as to permit of it being readily removed from its clip or holder 1), for the purpose of stropping.
'lo att'ord facility for cleaning the blade seat (1 with the comb 1/ thereof. and the I adjacent parts. pressure is released from the 1humb-piece 1". so permitting the frame c to resume its normal position. and the blade to fall back against a support (I on the back of the blade seat. as shown in dotted lines in Fig. l. and so be'out of the way of the fingers of the user. This support also serves as a stop to limit the backward movement of the frame c and therefore of the blade.
The depending lugs or arms (l. 1/ are formed with tlats. as shown at Fig. l, which act. as stops against which the lower part of the frame c abuts for the purpose of preventing the blade being shot or projected beyond comb :1. when restoring it to its operative position into engagement with said comb.
It will thus be seen that. unlike certain other safety-razors. the blade is. according to my invention. capable of retraction. dso that this support insures that the blade can never be turned backward to such an extent as to be dangerous to the user of the appliance: and that the blade seat with its comb instead of being movable is stationary.
1. In a safety razor. the combination of a blade seat provided with a comb. a frame pivoted to the rear edge of said blade seat, a clip or holder for the razor blade pivotally mounted in said frame aml a spring acting on said frame and pressing the razor blade toward thecomb.
2. In a safety razor, the combination of a blade seat provided with a comb. a frame pivoted to the rear edge of said blade seat. a clip or holder fo the razor blade pivotally mounted in said frame. and a spring acting on said frame and pressing the razor blade toward the comb, means whereby said frame may be swung. and stops for limiting the swinging movements of said frame.
