Embodiment Construction

[0023] figure 1 An embodiment of a shaving unit 1 according to the invention is shown, having a longitudinal axis X, a transverse axis Y and a vertical axis Z. In a magnified view, such as figure 2 As shown, an outer cutter 5 is shown, which essentially consists of a first comb element 2, a second comb element 3 and a side wall 4, all of which together form an outer cutter 5 in the form of a U. on the basis of figure 2 In the embodiment of the present invention, the two comb elements 2 and 3 are arranged in such a way that they extend angularly towards each other, wherein the top surfaces of the comb elements that contact the skin during shaving are in height from their outer boundaries 8 increases inwardly into the shape of a roof with a raised middle. For the same parts or parts that are identical to each other, the same reference numerals are used in the description.

[0024] as by Figure 1-3 As best seen, the two comb elements 2, 3 are integrally formed and compris...

Abstract

The invention relates to a shaving unit (1) for an electric shaver which comprises an outer cutter (5) and an inner cutter (13) associated to that outer cutter. The outer and inner cutters are mounted so as to be movable relative to each other and adapted to be set in a relative motion by a drive mechanism. The inner cutter (13) provides a plurality of cutting edges (23) and abuts with its outer face on the inner face of the outer cutter (5), and the outer cutter provides a plurality of teeth (6) equipped with cutting edges (22). According to the invention, the outer cutter (5) provides two comb elements (2, 3) which are disposed opposite one another and which extend according to the direction of the relative motion. The two comb elements are aligned with respect to one another such that the tips (10) of the teeth of the first comb element (2) are facing the tips of the teeth of the second comb element (3), with the tips of the teeth being essentially spaced from one another.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a shaving unit for an electric shaver according to the generic part of claim 1 . This shaving unit is specified for electric shavers, beard trimmers and hair cutters. They can be arranged as the sole cutting element or in combination with other cutting elements - they are often used as so-called center trimmers and are arranged between two shaving foils. Background technique [0002] A shaving unit of the initially named type is known, for example, from EP0693988B1. This document discloses an electric dry razor in which a center trimmer is arranged between two foil-type shaving elements. The upper cutter of the center trimmer is provided with hair feeding means consisting of outwardly directed protruding teeth. Those center trimmers are generally quite effective at cutting hair to very short remaining lengths of hair. The performance of this known cutting system is not optimal for hairs that lie flat against the skin, since...
