SHAVING DEVICE WITH HAIR PROTECTING ELEMENT

摘要

In a shaving device, cutting elements (8) are arranged on a movably arranged carrier. However, when an end zone of a cutting edge (11) of a cutting element (8) encounters a hair, it may happen that the hair is damaged to such an extent that the hair cannot be cut at a later stage of a shaving action. This disadvantageous effect no longer occurs when hair protecting devices (16) are provided, which are associated with the cutting elements (8), and which are adapted to guide a hair which is in the path of an end zone of a cutting edge (11) of a cutting element (8) to a position well in front of the cutting edge (11), or to guide a hair to a position outside of said end zone, whatever the case may turn out to be when the carrier moves on, without inflicting damage on the hair.
