Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Doppel-Schwingkopf-Rasierapparat mit einem am vorderen Ende eines Handgriffs angeordneten Rasierapparatekopf, in dem eine zur Schneidkante waagerechte Schwingachse definierende Halterung für eine um eine federbelastete Nullage schwingbare Rasierklingeneinheit angeordnet ist, wobei die Rasierklingeneinheit zusätzlich um eine in der Längssymmetrieebene des Rasierapparates liegende, senkrechte Achse ebenfalls ausgehend von einer federbelasteten Nullage schwingbar im Rasierapparatekopf gelagert ist.The invention relates to a double oscillating-head razor with a razor head arranged at the front end of a handle, in which a holder defining a horizontal oscillation axis that is horizontal to the cutting edge is arranged for a razor blade unit that can be pivoted about a spring-loaded zero position, the razor blade unit additionally being arranged in the longitudinal plane of symmetry of the razor horizontal axis is also swingably mounted in the razor head, starting from a spring-loaded zero position.

Ein Doppel-Schwingkopf-Rasierapparat dieser Art ist aus der EP-OS 0 195 602 bekannt. Dabei ist am vorderen Ende eines Hand­griffs ein Rasierapparatekopf angeordnet, der den kombinierten Halte- und Schwingmechanismus für eine Rasierklingeneinheit auf­nimmt. Zu diesem Zweck ist innerhalb des Handgriffs sowie inner­halb des Rasierapparatekopfes eine Y-förmige Blattfeder angeordnet. Innerhalb des Handgriffs verlaufen dabei zwei zueinander parallele Federarme, die am unteren Ende einstückig miteinander verbunden und durch das Verbindungsstück innerhalb des Handgriffs derart festgelegt sind, daß die Federarme sich frei biegen können. Im Bereich des Rasierapparatekopfes sind die vorderen Enden der Federarme nach außen hin abgewinkelt und darüber hinaus bezüglich der Längserstreckung innerhalb des Handgriffes abgeknickt. Die vorderen Enden der Federarme sind nach innen derart koaxial zueinander abgewinkelt, daß sie eine Halterung für eine Rasierklingeneinheit mit einer zur Schneidkante der Rasierklinge parallelen, waagerechten Schwing­achse definieren. Um diese Schwingachse ist die Rasierklingen­einheit um eine federbelastete Nullage schwingbar, wobei zur Definierung dieser Nullage ein rückseitiger Nocken der Rasier­klingeneinheit am Rasierapparatekopf anliegt. Durch die Aus­bildung der Federarme als Blattfedern und darüber hinaus durch die Abknickung im Bereich des Überganges zwischen dem Handgriff und dem Rasierapparatekopf ist die Rasierklingeneinheit zusätz­lich um eine Achse schwingbar, die senkrecht bezüglich der durch die Federarme im Bereich des Rasierapparatekopfes definierten Ebene liegt.A double oscillating head shaver of this type is known from EP-OS 0 195 602. In this case, a razor head is arranged at the front end of a handle, which receives the combined holding and swinging mechanism for a razor blade unit. For this purpose, a Y-shaped leaf spring is arranged inside the handle and inside the shaver head. Two mutually parallel spring arms run within the handle and are integrally connected to one another at the lower end and are fixed by the connecting piece within the handle in such a way that the spring arms can bend freely. In the area of the razor head, the front ends of the spring arms are angled outwards and, moreover, they are kinked with respect to the longitudinal extension within the handle. The front ends of the spring arms are angled coaxially to one another in that they are a Define a holder for a razor blade unit with a horizontal oscillation axis parallel to the cutting edge of the razor blade. The razor blade unit can be pivoted about a spring-loaded zero position about this oscillation axis, with a rear cam of the razor blade unit resting against the razor head in order to define this zero position. Due to the design of the spring arms as leaf springs and also due to the kink in the area of the transition between the handle and the razor head, the razor blade unit can additionally be swiveled about an axis which is perpendicular to the plane defined by the spring arms in the area of the razor head.

Der bekannte Doppel-Schwingkopf-Rasierapparat kann mit seiner Rasierklingeneinheit zwar eine zwei-dimensionale Schwingbewegung mit zwei Schwingachsen ausführen, so daß eine optimale Anpassung der Rasierklingeneinheit an die Gesichtsform des Benutzers während der Rasur möglich ist, doch ist der konstruktive Aufbau sehr kompliziert und es bedarf bei der Montage manuelles Geschick, um die relativ lange, Y-förmige Feder sowohl in den Handgriff als auch in den Rasierapparatekopf einzufügen, wobei darüber hinaus die vorderen Enden der Federarme durch Öffnungen im Rasierapparatekopf hindurchgesteckt werden müssen. Darüber hinaus müssen die Federarme sehr exakt gebogen werden, damit sie genau in das Gehäuse hineinpassen. Abweichungen von der vor­gegebenen Krümmung führen dazu, daß das Schwingverhalten der Rasierklingeneinheit beeinträchtigt ist.The known double oscillating head razor can perform a two-dimensional oscillating movement with two oscillating axes with its razor blade unit, so that an optimal adaptation of the razor blade unit to the face shape of the user is possible during shaving, but the construction is very complicated and required manual dexterity during assembly to insert the relatively long, Y-shaped spring into both the handle and the razor head, the front ends of the spring arms also having to be inserted through openings in the razor head. In addition, the spring arms must be bent very precisely so that they fit exactly into the housing. Deviations from the predetermined curvature lead to the vibration behavior of the razor blade unit being impaired.

Davon ausgehend liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen konstruktiv vereinfachten Doppel-Schwing­kopf-Rasierapparat zu schaffen, der vor allem leicht montierbar ist.Proceeding from this, the object of the invention is to create a structurally simplified double oscillating-head razor which, above all, is easy to assemble.

Als technische Lösung wird mit der Erfindung vorgeschlagen, daß der Rasierapparatekopf einen äußeren Apparatekörper mit einem frontseitigen Fenster aufweist, in das die Halterung für die Rasierklingeneinheit als separate Baugrup­pe eingesetzt und im Apparatekörper festgelegt ist, wobei diese separate Baugruppe innerhalb des Apparatekörpers schwingbar um die senkrechte Achse gelagert ist.As a technical solution it is proposed with the invention that the razor head has an outer apparatus body with a front window into which the holder for the razor blade unit is inserted as a separate assembly and is fixed in the apparatus body, this separate assembly being oscillatable about the vertical axis within the apparatus body is stored.

Auf diese Weise ist ein technisch sehr einfacher Doppel-Schwing­kopf-Rasierapparat geschaffen, der auf überaus einfache Weise zusammengesetzt werden kann. Das eigentliche Gehäuse des Rasier­apparates, also der Handgriff mit dem äußeren Apparatekörper für den Rasierapparatekopf, kann in einem einzigen Spritzvorgang hergestellt werden. Ebenso kann die separate Baugruppe mit der Halterung für die Rasierklingeneinheit vorgefertigt werden. Es ist lediglich dann nur noch erforderlich, die vorgefertigte separate Baugruppe in den Apparatekörper einzusetzen, ohne daß es dazu eines besonderen Aufwandes bedarf. Dabei ist die separate Baugruppe für die Querbewegungen der Rasierklingenein­heit verantwortlich, wohingegen die in der separaten Baugruppe integrierte Halterung der herkömmlichen Schwingbewegungen um die waagerechte Schwingachse dient. Eine derartige separate Baugrup­pe stellt somit eine technisch einfache Möglichkeit dar, um einerseits den Haltemechanismus für die Rasierklingeneinheit in­nerhalb des Rasierapparatekopfes anordnen zu können und anderer­seits auf technisch einfache Weise eine Querbewegung der Rasier­klingeneinheit zu ermöglichen.In this way, a technically very simple double oscillating-head razor is created, which can be assembled in an extremely simple manner. The actual housing of the shaving apparatus, that is to say the handle with the outer apparatus body for the shaving apparatus head, can be produced in a single injection process. Likewise, the separate assembly can be prefabricated with the holder for the razor blade unit. It is then only necessary to insert the prefabricated separate assembly into the apparatus body, without requiring any special effort. The separate assembly is responsible for the transverse movements of the razor blade unit, whereas the holder integrated in the separate assembly serves the conventional swinging movements around the horizontal swinging axis. Such a separate assembly thus represents a technically simple possibility, on the one hand, of being able to arrange the holding mechanism for the razor blade unit within the razor head and, on the other hand, of enabling a transverse movement of the razor blade unit in a technically simple manner.

Dabei liegt in einer Weiterbildung die senkrechte Achse vorzugs­weise im Bereich des Fensters des Apparatekörpers. Auf diese Weise ergibt sich ein optimales Schwingverhalten der separaten Baugruppe und damit der Rasierklingeneinheit.In one development, the vertical axis preferably lies in the area of the window of the apparatus body. This results in an optimal vibration behavior of the separate assembly and thus the razor blade unit.

Um eine technisch einfache schwingbare Lagerung der separaten Baugruppe innerhalb des Apparatekörpers zu schaffen, ist diese in einer Weiterbildung durch oben und unten an der separaten Baugruppe ausgebildete Zapfen sowie dazu korrespondierende, je­weils eine Hinterschneidung aufweisende Aufnehmungen im Appara­tekörper gebildet, in die die Baugruppe eingerastet ist. Auf diese Weise ist auch eine technisch einfache Montage der separaten Baugruppe innerhalb des Apparatekörpers möglich.In order to create a technically simple, oscillatable mounting of the separate assembly within the apparatus body, this is formed in a further development by means of pins formed at the top and bottom of the separate assembly and corresponding receptacles in the apparatus body, each with an undercut, into which the assembly is latched. In this way, a technically simple assembly of the separate assembly within the apparatus body is also possible.

Für die federbelastete Nullage der separaten Baugruppe wird in einer konstruktiven Ausführungsform vorgeschlagen, daß zwischen der Rückwand des Apparatekörpers und der Rückseite der separaten Baugruppe zumindest eine Feder angeordnet ist. In einer ersten Alternative ist dabei beidseitig der mittleren Längssymme­trieebene jeweils eine Druckfeder zwischen der Rückwand des Apparatekörpers und der Rückseite der separaten Baugruppe ange­ordnet, wobei die Druckfeder vorzugsweise als Wendelfeder ausge­bildet ist, die auf an der Rückwand des Apparatekörpers und der Rückseite der separaten Baugruppe angeformte Zapfen aufgesteckt ist. Als zweite Alternative ist an der Rückseite der separaten Baugruppe eine in der Längssymmetrieebene liegende, nach hinten ragende Blattfeder fest angeordnet und mit ihrem freien anderen Ende in einer schlitzförmigen Aufnehmung an der Rückwand des Apparatekörpers frei beweglich festgelegt. All diese Federanord­nungen stellen eine technisch einfache Möglichkeit dar, um die separate Baugruppe in ihre Nullage zu bringen, von der ausgehend die Baugruppe dann die Schwingbewegungen ausführen kann.For the spring-loaded zero position of the separate assembly, it is proposed in a constructive embodiment that at least one spring is arranged between the rear wall of the apparatus body and the back of the separate assembly. In a first alternative, a compression spring is arranged on both sides of the central longitudinal symmetry plane between the rear wall of the apparatus body and the rear of the separate assembly, the compression spring preferably being designed as a helical spring, which is formed on pins formed on the rear wall of the apparatus body and the rear of the separate assembly is attached. As a second alternative, a leaf spring lying in the longitudinal plane of symmetry and projecting to the rear is fixedly arranged on the back of the separate assembly and is freely movable with its other free end in a slot-shaped receptacle on the rear wall of the apparatus body. All these spring arrangements represent a technically simple possibility to bring the separate assembly into its zero position, from which the assembly can then carry out the oscillating movements.

Um dem Benutzer die Möglichkeit zu eröffnen, je nach Wunsch die Rasierklingeneinheit schwingen oder feststehen zu lassen, wird schließlich in einer Weiterbildung des Schwingkopf-Rasier­apparates vorgeschlagen, daß die Rasierklingeneinheit in ihrer Rasierposition durch eine vom Benutzer zu tätigende Sperr­vorrichtung arretierbar ist.In order to open up the possibility for the user to swing or leave the razor blade unit stationary as desired, it is finally proposed in a further development of the oscillating head razor that the razor blade unit in its Shaving position can be locked by a locking device to be operated by the user.

Zwei Ausführungsbeispiele eines erfindungsgemäßen Doppel-­Schwingkopf-Rasierapparates werden nachfolgend anhand der rein schematischen Zeichnungen beschrieben. In diesen zeigt:

  • Fig. 1 eine perspektivische Ansicht eines Rasierappa­rates mit in den Rasierapparatekopf einge­setztem Haltemechanismus in Form einer separa­ten Baugruppe für die Rasierklingeneinheit;
  • Fig. 2 eine erste Ausführungsform der separaten Bau­gruppe vor dem Einsetzen in den Rasierapparate­kopf;
  • Fig. 3 eine zweite Ausführungsform der separaten Bau­gruppe vor dem Einsetzen in den Rasierappara­tekopf.
Two exemplary embodiments of a double oscillating-head razor according to the invention are described below with the aid of the purely schematic drawings. In these shows:
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of a razor with the holding mechanism inserted into the razor head in the form of a separate assembly for the razor blade unit.
  • Figure 2 shows a first embodiment of the separate assembly prior to insertion into the shaver head.
  • Fig. 3 shows a second embodiment of the separate assembly before insertion in the shaver head.

Der Doppel-Schwingkopf-Naßrasierapparat weist einen Rasierappa­ratekopf 1 auf, der am vorderen Ende eines Handgriffs 2 angeordnet ist. Der Rasierapparatekopf 1 ist dabei durch einen Apparatekörper 3 mit einem frontseitigen Fenster 4 gebildet, in das die zur eigentlichen Halterung der nicht dargestellten Ra­sierklingeneinheit gehörenden Teile in Form einer separaten Bau­gruppe 5 eingeschoben werden kann.The double oscillating head wet shaver has a shaver head 1 which is arranged at the front end of a handle 2. The razor head 1 is formed by an apparatus body 3 with a front window 4 into which the parts belonging to the actual mounting of the razor blade unit, not shown, can be inserted in the form of a separate assembly 5.

Diese separate Baugruppe 5 besteht in beiden Ausführungsformen aus einem Gehäuse 6, in dem zunächst eine Halterung 7 in Form einer Gabelhalterung mit Aufnahmegabeln 8 gelagert ist. Mittels eines nicht dargestellten Betätigungselements beispielsweise in Form eines Schiebers oder eines Druckknopfes sind die freien En­den der Aufnahmegabeln 8 der Halterung 7 derart nach außen ver­schwenkbar, daß nach dem Zurückschwenken die Aufnahmegabeln 8 in entsprechende Ausnehmungen der Rasierklingeneinheit greifen und diese aufnehmen und halten. Dabei ist durch die Verbindungslinie der freien, nach innen gerichteten Enden der Aufnahmegabeln 8 eine Schwingachse S definiert, um die herum die Rasierklingen­einheit verschwenkbar ist und sich beim Rasieren der Gesichts­form unter Beibehaltung eines günstigen Rasierwinkels durch die Verschwenkbewegungen anpassen kann.In both embodiments, this separate assembly 5 consists of a housing 6, in which a holder 7 in the form of a fork holder with receiving forks 8 is initially mounted. By means of an actuating element, not shown, for example in In the form of a slider or a push button, the free ends of the receiving forks 8 of the holder 7 can be pivoted outwards in such a way that after the pivoting back, the receiving forks 8 engage in corresponding recesses in the razor blade unit and pick them up and hold them. An oscillation axis S is defined by the connecting line of the free, inwardly directed ends of the receiving forks 8, around which the razor blade unit can be pivoted and can adapt to the shape of the face while shaving while maintaining a favorable shaving angle by means of the pivoting movements.

Um die Rasierklingeneinheit dabei in einer federbelasteten Nullage halten zu können, ist im Gehäuse 6 der separaten Baugruppe 5 weiterhin ein eindrückbarer Federnocken 9 gelagert, der an der Rückseite der Rasierklingeneinheit abgestützt ist, wobei zu diesem Zweck diese mit einer in der Längssymmetrieebene liegenden Rippe versehen ist.In order to be able to hold the razor blade unit in a spring-loaded zero position, a push-in spring cam 9 is also mounted in the housing 6 of the separate assembly 5, which is supported on the rear of the razor blade unit, for which purpose this is provided with a rib lying in the longitudinal plane of symmetry .

Zusätzlich zu der Verschwenkbewegung der Rasierklingeneinheit um die Schwingachse S ist diese noch um eine in der Längssymme­trieebene des Rasierapparatekopfes 1 liegende, senkrechte Achse A schwingbar. Zu diesem Zweck ist die separate Baugruppe 5 in­nerhalb des Apparatekörpers 3 um die Achse A verschwenkbar gela­gert. Dazu dienen an der Oberseite und an der Unterseite des Ge­häuses 6 angeformte Zapfen 10, die in der Achse A liegend diese definieren. Dazu korrespondierend sind im Innern des Apparate­körpers 3 Hinterschneidungen 11 aufweisende Ausnehmungen 12 vor­gesehen, die mit den Zapfen 10 des Gehäuses 6 der Baugruppe 5 korrespondieren. Durch Einsetzen der Baugruppe 5 mit ihrem Ge­häuse 6 in den Apparatekörper 3 rasten die Zapfen 10 nach Pas­sieren der Hinterschneidungen 11 in den Aussparungen 12 ein, wo­bei die Durchmesserverhältnisse derart sind, daß die Baugruppe 5 eine Drehbewegung innerhalb des Apparatekörpers 3 ausführen kann. Zu diesem Zweck sind auch die Seitenwände 13 des Gehäuses 6 abgerundet.In addition to the pivoting movement of the razor blade unit about the oscillation axis S, it can also be oscillated about a vertical axis A lying in the longitudinal plane of symmetry of the razor head 1. For this purpose, the separate assembly 5 is pivotally mounted about the axis A within the apparatus body 3. For this purpose, pins 10 are formed on the top and on the underside of the housing 6 and define them lying in the axis A. Corresponding to this, 3 undercuts 11 having recesses 12 are provided in the interior of the apparatus body, which correspond to the pins 10 of the housing 6 of the assembly 5. By inserting the assembly 5 with its housing 6 into the apparatus body 3, the pins 10 snap into the recesses 12 after passing through the undercuts 11, the diameter ratios being such that the assembly 5 executes a rotary movement within the apparatus body 3 can. For this purpose, the side walls 13 of the housing 6 are rounded.

Damit die separate Baugruppe 5 ausgehend von einer federbelaste­ten Nullage schwingen kann, ist zwischen der Rückwand 14 des Apparatekörpers 3 und der Rückseite 15 der Baugruppe 5 eine Federanordnung vorgesehen. Bei der Ausführungsform gemäß Fig. 2 sind hierfür zwei wendelförmige Druckfedern 16 vorgesehen, die von der Längssymmetrieebene des Rasierapparatekopfes 1 gleich­beabstandet sind. Um die Position dieser Druckfedern 16 zu fixieren, sind an der Rückseite 15 der Baugruppe 5 sowie an der Rückwand 14 des Apparatekörpers 3 jeweils zwei Zapfen 17 ange­formt, auf die die wendelförmigen Druckfedern 16 aufgesteckt sind.So that the separate assembly 5 can swing starting from a spring-loaded zero position, a spring arrangement is provided between the rear wall 14 of the apparatus body 3 and the rear 15 of the assembly 5. In the embodiment according to FIG. 2, two helical compression springs 16 are provided for this purpose, which are equally spaced from the longitudinal plane of symmetry of the razor head 1. In order to fix the position of these compression springs 16, two pins 17 are formed on the rear side 15 of the assembly 5 and on the rear wall 14 of the apparatus body 3, onto which the helical compression springs 16 are attached.

Bei der in Fig. 3 dargestellten Ausführungsform ist als Feder eine einzige Blattfeder 18 vorgesehen. Diese liegt senkrecht stehend in der Längssymmetrieebene des Rasierapparatekopfes 1 und ist mit ihrem vorderen Ende im Gehäuse 6 der Baugruppe 5 be­festigt. Das hintere, freie Ende der Blattfeder 18 greift in eine schlitzförmige Aufnehmung 19, die an der Rückwand 14 des Apparatekörpers 3 ausgebildet ist und in der die Blattfeder 18 längsverschiebbar ist.In the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, a single leaf spring 18 is provided as the spring. This lies vertically in the longitudinal plane of symmetry of the razor head 1 and is attached with its front end in the housing 6 of the assembly 5. The rear, free end of the leaf spring 18 engages in a slot-shaped receptacle 19 which is formed on the rear wall 14 of the apparatus body 3 and in which the leaf spring 18 is longitudinally displaceable.

Bei beiden Ausführungsformen ist die separate Baugruppe 5 und damit die Rasierklingeneinheit um die Achse A schwingbar, wie durch den Pfeil P angedeutet ist. Bei einer Verschwenkbewegung der Baugruppe während des Rasiervorganges wird dabei die Feder derart gespannt, daß bei Loslassen die Baugruppe 5 in ihre Nullage wieder zurückkehrt und die Grundposition einnimmt. Auf diese Weise kann die Rasierklingeneinheit eine Schwingbewegung um zwei Achsen ausführen, so daß sich die Rasierklingeneinheit beim Rasieren der Gesichtsform optimal anpassen kann.In both embodiments, the separate assembly 5 and thus the razor blade unit can be pivoted about the axis A, as indicated by the arrow P. When the assembly is pivoted during the shaving process, the spring is tensioned in such a way that when released, the assembly 5 returns to its zero position and assumes the basic position. In this way, the razor blade unit can swing about two axes, so that the razor blade unit can optimally adapt to the shape of the face when shaving.

Sofern der Benutzer je nach Wunsch die Rasierklingeneinheit schwingen oder feststehen lassen will, kann der Rasierapparate­kopf 1 zusätzlich noch mit einer nicht dargestellten Sperrvor­richtung ausgestattet sein, mittels der eine entsprechende Arretierung möglich ist.If the user wants the razor blade unit to vibrate or to remain stationary, the razor head 1 can additionally be equipped with a locking device, not shown, by means of which a corresponding locking is possible.
