  • Polypropylene also provides a low mold temperature relative to other materials known in the art for the formation of razor heads. This low mold temperature is desirable if a shaving aid is to be added to the flexible razor head in a sequential molding process.

  • Exemplary materials constituting the shaving aid may comprise one or various combinations of the following:
  • a lubricating agent for reducing the frictional forces between the razor head and the skin e.g., a micro- encapsulated silicone oil.
  • An agent which reduces the drag between the razor parts and the shaver's face e.g., a polyethylene oxide in the range of molecular weights of about 100,000 to about 6,000,000; a non-ionic polyacrylamide; and/or a natural polysaccharide derived from plant materials such as "guar gum".
  • An agent which modifies the chemical structure of the hair to allow the razor blade to pass through the whiskers very easily e.g., a depilatory agent is one example.
  • a cleaning agent which allows whiskers and skin debris to be washed more easily from the razor parts during shaving e.g., a silicone polyethylene oxide block copolymer and detergent such as sodium lauryl sulphate.
  • a medicinal agent for killing bacteria, or repairing skin damage and abrasions e.
  • a medicinal agent for killing bacteria, or repairing skin damage and abrasions e.
  • a cosmetic agent for softening, smoothing, conditioning or improving the skin e.
  • the configuration of the shaving aid, its place of application to the razor cartridge, the manner of attachment and/or other means and method of incorporation may vary widely to fit particular requirements.
  • razor head 10 An alternative embodiment of the present invention, i.e., razor head 10,' is illustrated in Figs. 15-18.
  • razor head 10- is a one piece continuous thermoplastic body in which the blades are secured substantially rigidly against movement and vibration during shaving.
  • the design and positioning of the cap portion and guard bar of the razor head with respect to the cap and seat blades create what is commonly referred to as a "shave geometry.”

  • razor head 10' is also provided with flow-through rinse slots 220.
  • Shaving debris tends to accumulate between the cap and seat blades during shaving. This debris, which can detract from the effectiveness of the razor unit, is often difficult to remove by rinsing alone. This difficulty in removing the shaving debris which becomes lodged between the blades often forces the user to have ⁇ to "tap" the razor head against the sink, counter, etc. to clear the blades.
  • Razor head 10' addresses this concern by incorporating rinse slots 220 in the back surface of the head. The slots are positioned between the blades such that a flow of water directed into the slots from the rear of the razor unit will dislodge any shaving debris trapped between the blades.
  • FIGs. 19-21 Another embodiment of the present invention is illustrated in Figs. 19-21.

  • Phantom lines A, B, and C depict the additional continuous body sections a, b, and c which distinguish this preferred embodiment.
  • Body segments a, b and c perform basically two functions.
  • the additional body segments equalize length X, and length X 2 so that the vibration cycle of the blades will begin substantially simultaneously when an impact force is exerted on the blades. In other words, the blades are synchronized and will vibrate together, thereby ensuring that the span between the blades remains substantially constant during shaving.
  • the additional plastic increases the rigidity of the blades, , which, in turn, decrease the amplitude of any vibration in the blade. Ideally, the amplitude of any vibration in the blades should be maintained as low as possible to ensure that the razor head is providing the user with a comfortable and close shave. Both of these features enhance the ability to maintain shave geometry over the entire length of the shaving unit during shaving.
