Definitions
- the present invention relates to shaving aid cartridges, and, more particularly, to shaving aid compositions for use with shaving aid cartridges.
- a safety razor typically includes a disposable razor cartridge mounted in a reusable handle, or a handle and a cartridge combined into a unitary disposable unit.
- Most razor cartridges include a frame, at least one razor blade, and a strip of shaving aid material attached to the frame to enhance the shaving process.
- the shaving aid material facilitates the movement of the razor blade over the skin and /or aids in the removal of hair from the skin.
- Shaving aid materials include, but are not limited to, lubricating agents, drag-reducing agents, depilatory agents, cleaning agents, medicinal agents, and the like.
- the shaving preparation e.g., shaving cream, gel, or the like
- the shaving preparation is applied to the skin to condition and soften the skin and further assists in the softening of the hair to be shaved.
- the preparation remains on the skin until it is removed during the shaving process or in the rinsing of the skin upon completion of the shaving process.
- the present invention is directed in one aspect to a shaving aid cartridge that includes a base adapted to be coupled to a shaving implement.
- a body is coupled to the base and is formed at least in part from a shaving aid preparation.
- shaving aid preparation includes combinations of shaving aid preparations and shaving aid materials.
- a tensile force required to cause the body to separate from the base at an interface thereof is defined herein as the “separation force” and is in the range of about 8 to about 30 pounds. The manner by which this force is exerted and measured is described below in the section entitled "Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiments.”
- the separation force is one of several different characteristics of the present invention that can be used to characterize the shaving aid cartridge.
- Another characteristic that, by itself, can be used to distinguish the shaving aid cartridge of the present invention is referred to as the "energy-to-break.”
- the energy-to-break is a measure of the dynamic force required to break at least a portion of the body away from the base.
- the body in the present invention exhibits an energy-to-break of about 0.2 to 2.0 foot pounds. The manner in which this is measured is described below in the section labeled "Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiments.”
- Still another mechanical property which, separate from the above-described mechanical properties, can be used to characterize the present invention is impact resistance.
- the impact resistance is a measure of the resistance of the material to deform. Preferably, an acceptable level of deformation, and thereby impact resistance should be in the range of about 0.05 to about 0.40 inches. The manner in which this is measured is also described below in the section labeled "Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiments
- the present invention also resides in a shaving aid preparation that exhibits a wear rate of about 0.002 to about 0.040 millimeters per cycle.
- the wear rate is defined by the resistance of the shaving aid to an erosive condition.
- cycle is also described below in the section labeled "Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiments.”
- the body is formed at least in part from a shaving aid preparation that comprises a surface eroding polymer, a synthetic detergent, a super-fatted material, glycerin, a composition saponified or neutralized from a vegetable oil or a tallow, or a combination of at least two of the foregoing materials.
- One advantage of the present invention is that the shaving aid preparation is applied as needed as a shaving operation progresses.
- the shaving aid preparation is applied during the shaving process (e.g., in a shower), the potential for it being prematurely washed away is minimized. Because the shaving aid preparation is applied in the very least just prior to the blades, maximum lubricity and thereby shaving comfort is achieved.
- the shaving aid preparation is compatible with use in the shower.
- the shaving aid preparation is configured to withstand conditions of the shower without being washed away.
- Still another advantage of the shaving aid preparation employed in the present invention is that it exhibits mechanical characteristics that allow the shaving aid preparation to maintain its structural integrity over prolonged periods of time and in a sometimes severe environment.
- FIG. 1 is a side elevation view of a razor assembly including a shaving aid cartridge in accordance with the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a shaving aid cartridge in which the shaving aid defines an aperture into which a razor cartridge is positioned.

- the forward portion 21 and the aft portion 21 may be rounded or otherwise configured.
- the base 14 includes a rigid structure having features 22 that facilitate the attachment of the shaving aid cartridge 10 to the razor assembly 11 (FIG. 1).
- the features 22 include tabs, flanges, or the like that enable the shaving aid cartridge to be mechanically attached to the razor assembly.

- An embodiment of an apparatus utilized to determine the energy to break the composition is a swing arm testing device.
- a swing arm testing device employs a pendulum having a hammer disposed at a non-fulcrum end of the pendulum.
- the force exerted by the hammer at a preselected impact point at which the shaving aid body 12 is fixedly mounted can be calculated.
- the impact point is taken to be the point determined to be most vulnerable to damage, i.e., the portions of the shaving aid body that connects the front portion to the aft portion.

- a suitable swing arm testing device useful in performing the above-desired test is a Satec Systems, Inc. BLI Impact Tester.
- the impact resistance of the composition is also determinable from the swing arm testing device.
- an analysis of a resulting deformation caused by the impact of the hammer can be made.
- the resultant value (e.g., the distance that the surface of the composition is indented) is measured in linear units.
- the impact resistance (at 0.53 ft. lbs.) of the composition is about 0.05 to about 0.40 in., preferably about 0.08 to about 0.30 in., and more preferably about 0.10 to about 0.20 in.
- the ability of the composition to resist wear is an indication of the usable life of the shaving aid cartridge 10.
- Wear resistance is measured by maintaining a flow of water over a textured surface and between this textured surface and the shaving aid body 12 in a water bath at a pre-selected temperature and abrading the shaving aid body 12 to simulate a shaving process.
- the flow of water through the water bath is about 0.08 gallons per minute (gpm), and the temperature of the water is about 38 degrees C to about 42 degrees C.
- Abrading the shaving aid body 12 is effected by an apparatus that provides for the engagement of the shaving aid body 12 by a textured surface and movement of the shaving aid body 12 across the textured surface in an oscillating motion.
- the textured surface is preferably a stainless steel pad having a surface finish number of 32 microinches (Ra) (about 150 grit).
- Each continuous movement (forward and back) of the shaving aid body 12 over the textured surface is a cycle.
- One complete cycle is a movement of about six inches in each direction (forward and back).
- a load of 300 grams (g) is maintained on the shaving aid body 12 using weights.
- the wear rate of the shaving aid body 12 is about 0.002 to about 0.040 millimeters per cycle (mm/ cycle), preferably about 0.004 to about 0.030 mm/ cycle, and more preferably about 0.008 to about 0.016 mm/ cycle.
- One exemplary method of manufacturing the shaving aid preparation comprises synthesis by saponification or neutralization.
- a crutching process is utilized to blend various ingredients as a secondary phase for addition to the saponification or neutralization product.
- a drying process is employed to remove water.
- the resulting dried material is then pelletized and subjected to an amalgamating process.
- additional ingredients may be added to produce a final pelletized composition.
- a shaving aid preparation for a shaving aid cartridge was prepared with a base saponified from vegetable oil.
- the base was blended with surfactants, skin conditioning agents, absorbents, colorants, and fragrances.
- the composition of the resulting shaving aid preparation is shown below:
