Definitions
- the invention relates to a shaving apparatus with at least one electric motor arranged in a housing and a shaving head as well as an adjustable long hair cutting system or trimmer and an actuation switch.
- Electric shavers typically have a variety of different cutting systems.
- various other cutting systems in particular long hair cutting systems, are known.
- Trimmers or long-hair cutting systems are usually moved with an actuation switch into a position in which they become effective, whereby long-hair cutters are also known, which are arranged so as to be foldable out of the plane of the housing and are connected to the oscillation drive.
- the invention now aims to provide a shaver of the type mentioned, in which a plurality of operating positions with a common actuation switch can be taken and in particular with only one long hair cutting system or trimmer both the function of a second shaving head and the function of a long hair cutter can be realized without this requiring additional cutting heads.
- the design according to the invention essentially consists in the fact that the actuation switch is mechanically coupled to the trimmer in the same direction and that the trimmer can be moved from a first spring-loaded operating position into a second extended position and that a skin protection device is used Part of the trimmer over a smaller displacement than the trimmer is taken to a stop in the direction of displacement.
- actuation switch is mechanically coupled to the trimmer to move in the same direction
- various operating states can be set directly by actuating the operating switch or actuation switch, the trimmer being resiliently mounted in the housing in a first operating position of the trimmer and performing the function of a second shaving system can.
- the trimmer can be moved into a second extended position with the operating switch or actuation switch, it is possible to bring the trimmer into a position in which it can be used as a long-hair cutting system and because a part of the trimmer serving as skin protection with this shift in the second extended position over a smaller displacement than the trimmer is taken to a stop in the direction of displacement, the cutting system of the trimmer is immediately released in a corresponding manner, so that an effective long hair cutting system is formed.
- the trimmer in which the trimmer practically acts as an additional shaving head, the trimmer, like the shaving blade, is preferably elastically deformable, the design advantageously being such that the trimmer is resiliently supported in a trimmer housing has.
- the design is advantageously made such that the trimmer carries a T-shaped cutting tool, the plane of the T-beam normal to the direction of displacement is resiliently held in one position in the first operating position and essentially coincides with a tangential plane of the shaving head, so that In this first spring-loaded operating position, an essentially flat envelope is formed, which ensures the contact of the two cutting systems with the skin without having to change the usual handling of an electric shaver.
- the trimmer is resiliently mounted in its trimmer housing, so that when the shaver is pivoted by hand in different positions, both cutting systems can be activated simultaneously.
- the trimmer In the second operating position of the trimmer, in which the trimmer is to act as a long hair cutting system, the trimmer is extended further, so that only the trimmer is used in this position, the skin protection being held back in this position at the same time around the cutting teeth to release accordingly and to be able to capture long hair safely
- the design is advantageously made such that the plane of the T-beam normal to the direction of displacement in the second operating position of the trimmer is higher than the tangential plane of the shaving head parallel to this plane.
- the design is advantageously made such that the trimmer is connected to the actuation switch via a transmission gear, in particular an angular lever.
- the trimmer for example, succeeds with a displacement path of the actuating or operating switch of only 4 mm Extend to over 7 mm, and to achieve a corresponding release of the cutting teeth by simultaneously limiting the path of the skin protection.
- the trimmer In the second operating position, in which the trimmer is to be used as a long hair cutting system, a resilient flexibility of the trimmer is undesirable.
- the design is therefore advantageously made such that the trimmer, in its second operating position, interacts positively or frictionally with stops which block the resilient movement of the trimmer.
- the design is advantageously made such that the trimmer housing is pressed against springs in its extended second position, the spring travel of which is the displacement path between the first Position and second position corresponds.
- the actuation switch is withdrawn, the trimmer housing is thus returned to the original position with the force of this spring, in which a resilient suspension and support of the trimmer in the trimmer housing is in turn guaranteed.
- the design is advantageously made such that the skin protection is overlapped by an external comb of the trimmer.
- the outer comb which overlaps the skin protection, in this way again takes the skin protection with the inward movement of the trimmer, so that the skin protection reaches its outer position relative to the trimmer, in which the risk of injury is reduced.
- the formation is advantageously made such that the part serving as skin protection can be taken into its outward end position against the force of a spring supported on the trimmer.
- the within a trimmer housing spring-supported trimmers interact with the actuating switch via actuators which can be displaced in the direction of the force of these springs, such a direction of action of the actuators simultaneously ensuring that the action of the springs is blocked in the outwardly displaced second extended position and the trimmer is supported directly on the actuators. In this way it is ensured that when the trimmer is used in the second extended position, there is no longer any elastic flexibility, so that the use as a long hair cutting system is favored.
- the part of the trimmer serving as skin protection is preferably designed as a comb, wherein a comb can also be arranged on the side of the trimmer facing the shaving head.
- a hair straightening element can also be used, which consists, for example, of lamellae or soft plastic.
- FIG. 1 shows a view of the shaving apparatus from the front onto the actuation switch when the position is switched off, the shaving systems remaining in essentially the same position in the operating position
- FIG. 2 shows a side view of the illustration according to FIG. 3
- FIG. 3 shows a front view 1 with a position of the actuation switch in which the trimmer is extended
- FIG. 4 shows a side view of the illustration according to FIG. 3
- FIG. 5 shows a section along the line V / V of FIG. 4
- FIG. 6 a line section along the line VI / VI of Fig. 4, and Fig.
- FIG. 7 shows a section through a portion of the head in the direction of the oscillating cutting movement of the cutting knife, the parts being partially shown in section.
- the confirmation switch is designated 2.
- the actuation switch can be moved up and down in the direction of the double arrow 3, with a first operating position and a second position being assumed in addition to an off position, in which the trimmer is extended.
- the cutting head is designated 4, and a trimmer 5 is indicated, which can be moved resiliently up and down between the positions shown in FIG. 1, as long as the actuation switch is in the off position or in the first operating position.
- the trimmer which is indicated schematically by 5 the illustration according to FIG.
- FIG. 2 also shows the outer contour 6 of the shear blade of the shear system.
- the actuation switch 2 is shifted upwards into its second operating position, in which the trimmer 5 reaches its extended position, as can be seen in particular in the side view according to FIG. 4.
- FIGS. 5, 6 and 7. The movement sequences during the displacement of the actuation switch 2 are now further illustrated in the enlarged sectional views in FIGS. 5, 6 and 7.
- a drive motor is schematically indicated at 7, which drives both a blade block 8, which cooperates with the shaving blade 6, and a cutting tool 9 in the interior of the trimmer 5 to oscillate movement.
- An actuator 10 is connected to the actuation switch 2 via a corresponding transmission ratio.
- the trimmer 5 is supported resiliently even in a trimmer housing and in this position can be moved inward against the force of the spring.
- the skin protection 11 carries a nose 13, which is in the first operating position and the exhibition in a free space 14, whereby the inward springs of the trimmer 5 with the skin protection 11 is released without hindrance.
- the actuator 10 By actuating the operating switch 2, the actuator 10 is now moved into an upper position, as shown in FIG. 6.
- the skin protection 11 arrives in the second operating position with its nose 13 in abutment against an inward projection 15 of the head 4 and is held back by this abutment, the trimmer 5 in the direction of the double arrow 16 which indicates its direction of movement corresponds, can be moved further outwards.
- the trimmer 5 In the second position shown in FIG. 6, the trimmer 5 is rigidly supported and, due to the stops 13 and 15, the skin protection 11 is in a retracted position relative to the comb 12, which releases the cutting teeth better.
- the two operating positions of the trimmer are illustrated in more detail in FIG. 7.
- the trimmer 5 is resiliently mounted in a trimmer housing 17 with the interposition of compression springs 18 and can thus be moved inward in the first operating position shown on the right while overcoming the force of these springs 18, so that a resilient contact of the trimmer on the skin is ensured.
- the actuators 10, which are fork-shaped, directly actuate the trimmer, so that after a predetermined stroke these actuators 10 rest on the trimmer and move it outward. Due to the contact of the actuating members 10 on the trimmer 5, deflection via the springs 18 is blocked and the trimmer can reach the second operating position shown on the left in FIG. 7.
