17' (FIG. 3) of similar configuration, with upturned end portions 19' having upper surfaces 21'. The fingers 17~ 17' extend in generally opposite directions, the fingers 17 extending from the first end portion 4 generally toward the second end portion 6~ and the fingers 17' extending from the second end portion 6 generally toward the first end portion 4.
The fingers 17, 17' are each aligned with a pair of the slots 16.
The assembly includes a guard portion 24 having a slide member 26 at either end thereof. The slide members 26 are received in a pair of opposed slots 16 nearest the front portion 8. The bottom of the guard portion rests upon the surFaces 22, 22' of the spring fingers 18, 18'. The lower edges of the slide members 26 rest above the bottoms of their slots 16, allowing the guard portion 24 to be moved further into the slots, against the bias of the spring fingers 1~3, 18l therebeneatll. The spring fingers supporting the guard portion comprise a set of spring fingers, the object of which is to resiliently support the guard portion. In a shaving operation, the guard portion travels over the surface being shaved ahead of the cutting means.
The assembly further ~lncludes blade means 28 comprising a blade base portion 30~ a cutting edge portion 32 extending from the~base portion, and slide portions at either~end of the base portion. The slide portions wh~lch~may be merely extenslons of the blade base portions~30, are received in a pai~r of the opposed slots 16.~ An underside 3a of the blade cutting edge~portion 32~is engaged by the surfaces 21, 21' of a pair oF the spring :: ~: : : :: : :
fingers l7, 17'. Lower edges of the slide portions are spaced from the bottoms of thelr sl~ots to~permlt movement of the blades further lnto the slots~l6 against the bias~ of the spring fing~rs 17~, 17'~on~which the blade cutter portion rests. The~spr;ng~fingers supporting~the~blade clJtter port~ion 32 comprise another set of spring fingers, the object~of which is sd/sks ~ -4- ~

In the embodiment illustrated, the blade means include a second blade 28' having a base portion 30', a cu~tting edge portion 3Z', and slide portions all anchored similarly to the above-described first blade means.
The slide portions of the second blade are received in a third pair of the opposed slots 16 nearest the back portion 10 with the cutter portion 32' resting upon spring finger surfaces 21~ 21'. The spring fingers supporting the second blade comprise still another set of spring fingers, which resiliently support the second blade. In a shaving operation, the second - blade travels over the sur~ace being shaved behind the first blade.
The guard portion 24, first and second blades 28, 28' are clamped in place by spring clamps 40, which are received in slots 42 in the end portions 4, 6. The clamps 40 engage the guard portion 24 and blades 28, 28' forcing them into the slots 16 to a point where a slight stress is placed on the spring Fingers.
On the underside of the body member 2 and the frame portions 12, are disposed two extensions 44, 46 hav;ng at the;r free ends, respect;vely, inwardly extend;ng opposed ra;ls 48, 50, each~rall hav;ng respective ~
arcuate upper surfaces 52, 54. The extens;ons comprlse a p;vot~mounting 20 ~ ~ means by~which the blade assembly may be removably and pivotally attached to a~razor handle. The blade assembly body member underside is additionally provided with cam means S6 adapted to receive a cam follower operative to --urge~the blade assembly to a given position.
The blade assembly rails 48, 50, ln~conju~nction;wieh undersurfaces ; 9~, 96 of the body member 2, and a~rcuate struts 95, 97, deflne arcuate slots 98, 100 adapted to rece;ve razor handle shell bearings (not shown).
The shell bear;ngs comprise a pivot mountin9 means adapted to cooperate with the above descr;bed blade~assembly p;vot mounting means to fac;litate ~: ., :

pivotal connection of the blade assembly to the razor handle assembly.
In the handle there is disposed a coil spring and a plunger member the spring biasing the plunger in the direction of the free end of the plunger member. When the blade assembly is connected to the handle assembly, the free end of the plunger member is urged by the spring into engagement with the blade assembly cam means 56. During pivoting operation of the blade assembly, the plunger end bears against the cam means 56, to urge the blade assembly to a given position.
Referring again to FIG. 33 it will be seen that the opening l3 : 10 constitutes a gap between the back portion upper surface portion l4 and the back portion rear surface portion l5. Disposed in the opening l3 is an insert member llO havin9 a top surface 112 rounding into a rear surface 114 to generally form a continuation of the back portion upper and rear surface portions. The insert member llO preFerably is elongated, extending over a~majority of the length of the~blade assembly tFIG. l), and in cross-section (FIG. 3):~includes a wedge-shaped portion 116 having a widest point ; 118 w;der than~the afore-mentioned gap. The;wedge-shaped portion is adapted ~
to be urged through the gap, in assembly~, to become permanently lodged in ~:
the opening l3. The insert~member llO includes:a:walst portion~120 adJacent ~20 ~ ~ :the widest~point ll8 and~adapted to recelve portion l4', lS' of the back ~:

fingers. Simultaneously, the blade assembly, as a whole, pivots on the handle, following the contours of the surface being shaved. When the insert member 110 comes in contact with water, the hydrophilic material leaches out of the insert member and is deposited on the surface being shaved.
It is to be understood that the present invention is by no means limited to the particular construction herein disclosed andlor shown in the drawings, but also comprises any modifications or equivalents within the scope of the disclosure. For example, it is preferable under certain conditions that the guard portion be immovable. An alternative embodiment includes a guard portion fixed immovably to the blade assembly body member~ but in all other respects structured and operated in accordance with the above description. As a further example, the blade means may include a single blade, rather than the two blade arrangement described, the single blade being used in conjunction with either a movable or stationary guard portion.

The guard portion 24, first and second blades 28, 28' are clamped in place by spring clamps 40, which are received in slots 42 in the end portions 4, 6. The clamps 40 engage the guard portion 24 and blades 28, 28' forcing them into the slots 16 to a point where a slight stress is placed on the spring Fingers.
On the underside of the body member 2 and the frame portions 12, are disposed two extensions 44, 46 hav;ng at the;r free ends, respect;vely, inwardly extend;ng opposed ra;ls 48, 50, each~rall hav;ng respective ~
arcuate upper surfaces 52, 54. The extens;ons comprlse a p;vot~mounting 20 ~ ~ means by~which the blade assembly may be removably and pivotally attached to a~razor handle. The blade assembly body member underside is additionally provided with cam means S6 adapted to receive a cam follower operative to --urge~the blade assembly to a given position.
The blade assembly rails 48, 50, ln~conju~nction;wieh undersurfaces ; 9~, 96 of the body member 2, and a~rcuate struts 95, 97, deflne arcuate slots 98, 100 adapted to rece;ve razor handle shell bearings (not shown).
The shell bear;ngs comprise a pivot mountin9 means adapted to cooperate with the above descr;bed blade~assembly p;vot mounting means to fac;litate ~: ., :

pivotal connection of the blade assembly to the razor handle assembly.
In the handle there is disposed a coil spring and a plunger member the spring biasing the plunger in the direction of the free end of the plunger member. When the blade assembly is connected to the handle assembly, the free end of the plunger member is urged by the spring into engagement with the blade assembly cam means 56. During pivoting operation of the blade assembly, the plunger end bears against the cam means 56, to urge the blade assembly to a given position.
Referring again to FIG. 33 it will be seen that the opening l3 : 10 constitutes a gap between the back portion upper surface portion l4 and the back portion rear surface portion l5. Disposed in the opening l3 is an insert member llO havin9 a top surface 112 rounding into a rear surface 114 to generally form a continuation of the back portion upper and rear surface portions. The insert member llO preFerably is elongated, extending over a~majority of the length of the~blade assembly tFIG. l), and in cross-section (FIG. 3):~includes a wedge-shaped portion 116 having a widest point ; 118 w;der than~the afore-mentioned gap. The;wedge-shaped portion is adapted ~
to be urged through the gap, in assembly~, to become permanently lodged in ~:
the opening l3. The insert~member llO includes:a:walst portion~120 adJacent ~20 ~ ~ :the widest~point ll8 and~adapted to recelve portion l4', lS' of the back ~:

fingers. Simultaneously, the blade assembly, as a whole, pivots on the handle, following the contours of the surface being shaved. When the insert member 110 comes in contact with water, the hydrophilic material leaches out of the insert member and is deposited on the surface being shaved.
It is to be understood that the present invention is by no means limited to the particular construction herein disclosed andlor shown in the drawings, but also comprises any modifications or equivalents within the scope of the disclosure. For example, it is preferable under certain conditions that the guard portion be immovable. An alternative embodiment includes a guard portion fixed immovably to the blade assembly body member~ but in all other respects structured and operated in accordance with the above description. As a further example, the blade means may include a single blade, rather than the two blade arrangement described, the single blade being used in conjunction with either a movable or stationary guard portion.
