Magnetic Attachment for Shaving System

摘要

Shaving systems are disclosed that include a replaceable shaving assembly and a cartridge connecting structure for connecting the shaving assembly to a handle. In preferred implementations, the cartridge connecting structure has a magnetic portion configured to help draw the cartridge onto the handle and retain the cartridge in place when the razor is not in contact with the skin, and a mechanical engagement that provides the necessary retention forces required to keep the system intact during shaving.

主权项

1. A shaving system comprising:
a handle having a distal end and a proximal end, the distal end defining a receiving portion; a shaving assembly, mounted on the distal end of the handle, the shaving assembly having an appendage, configured to be received by the receiving portion, protruding from the distal end, and a generally planar rim surface surrounding the appendage, the rim surface being disposed at an angle of about 10 to 20 degrees with respect to a longitudinal axis of inertia of the handle, and a magnetic attachment system configured to provide a magnetic force between the handle and shaving assembly sufficient to retain the shaving assembly on the handle between shaving strokes, wherein the magnetic attachment system comprises a magnet and a ferrous element, the magnet and ferrous element having planar surfaces configured for face-to-face contact when the shaving assembly is mounted on the handle.
