- Still another object of the invention is to provide a shaving system having a unitary member which is effective to retain a plurality of blades in the system and maintain the blade edges in alignment, one with the other, and with a guard surface disposed parallel to the blades.
- Yet another object of the invention is to provide a safety razor system having a blade-carrying housing member and an interconnect member for pivotably attaching the housing to a razor handle wherein the interconnect member is simple in construction and provides ease of attachment to the blade-carrying housing.
- a safety razor system having an elongated housing with at least one blade extending lengthwise and upwardly from an upper surface of the housing.
- a unitary retainer member is disposed about the periphery of the housing on an upper surface thereof and contacts opposite ends of the blade or blades.
- the retainer and housing further have interfitting latch structure supporting the unitary retainer member against upward movement relative to the housing, whereby movement of the blade or blades in the upward direction is restricted by contact with the unitary retainer member.
- the housing is substantially of rectangular shape in plan form and has arcuate end portions.
- the blade means may comprise a plurality of blades, for example, three in number, and the blades may be resiliently biased toward the retainer member.
- a guard bar is generally affixed, preferably rigidly affixed, to the upper surface of the housing and extends lengthwise of the housing projecting upwardly in spaced relation with, and parallel to, the plurality of blades.
- the plurality of blades are generally manufactured of a stainless steel, and the retainer member may be of an aluminum material to inhibit corrosion of the blades.
- the safety razor system is provided with wall structure forming a pair of cavities, one disposed adjacent a lower surface of each end of said housing, and an interconnect member for pivotably connecting the housing onto a razor handle attached to the housing.
- the interconnect member can be formed integral with the razor handle, as when the shaving unit is supplied as part of a disposable razor, or preferably detachable therefrom so that a fresh housing and interconnect member can be exchanged as with a replaceable razor system.
- the interconnect member generally comprises a unitary body having a pair of opposed arms at either side thereof extending outwardly lengthwise of the housing and received in a respective cavity on the housing.
- a pair of first and second opposed coaxial bearing surfaces are disposed at each side of the interconnect member for contacting the housing.

- Figure 12 is a bottom plan view showing details of the unitary annular retainer clip employed in the structure of Figures 1 through 3.
- a safety razor system 10 comprising an elongated housing 12 and an interconnect member 14.
- the housing is provided with a plurality of blades 16, three in number, and a shaving aid strip 18 mounted onto the elongated housing behind the blades in a cap position and in parallel relationship with the blades.
- a unitary annular retainer clip 20 is provided for assembly about the periphery of the housing 12 contacting the ends of the blades 16, in the assembled position.
- the housing 12 is formed of a relatively rigid non-elastomeric thermoplastic material such as sold under the trade name Noryl PX-5511, available from GE Plastics, which suitably bonds with a pair of skin-tensioning portions 22 (which can also be referred to as a cap surface) and 23 of elastomeric material, which may be co-molded (also referred to as two material injection molding) with the basic portion of the housing 12, and which can be molded from an elastomeric plastic, such as sold under the trade name Kraiburg PC 5GIL, available from the Kraiburg Company (Germany), which suitably bonds with the housing 12.
- a relatively rigid non-elastomeric thermoplastic material such as sold under the trade name Noryl PX-5511, available from GE Plastics, which suitably bonds with a pair of skin-tensioning portions 22 (which can also be referred to as a cap surface) and 23 of elastomeric material, which may be co-molded (also referred to as two material injection molding) with the basic portion of the housing
- the skin- tensioning portions can also be molded from elastomeric materials as is described in detail in U.S. Patent No. 5,249,361 which is incorporated herein by reference.
- the skin-tensioning portions 22 and 23 are effective in exerting traction forces on the skin and in simultaneously tensioning the skin on both sides of the blades during the shaving process.
- the skin-tensioning portions have a plurality of cup-shaped openings 25 formed therein, which are also effective in holding and distributing water and shave gel over large surfaces during wet shaving.
- the housing 12 is of substantially rectangular shape in plan form having arcuate end portions, and slots 24 are provided inwardly of each of the end portions for receiving ends of the blades 16 in the assembly of the razor system 10.
- the blades 16 are manufactured of a stainless-steel material as is well-known in the art, and when received in the slots 24 are biased upwardly by a plurality of spring- biasing elements 26 formed on the housing 12.
- a guard member 28 extends parallel to and adjacent the three blades 16 and the skin-tensioning portion 23, the guard member preferably, but not necessarily, being molded as a portion of the housing 12, or in the alternative co- molded with the housing 12 out of a plastic having different characteristics than those of the housing, or may be a separate element rigidly affixed to the housing.
- Guard member 28 may also include a guard member movable relative to housing 12 as in U.S. Patent 5,063,667 (Jacobson), or the guard member 28 may also include a resilient guard member portion of the type shown in U.S. Patent Number 5,191,712 (Crook), or 5,661,907 (Apprille), which are hereby incorporated by reference.
- the shaving aid strip 18 is located in the cap region and is a strip-shaped member generally of the type comprising a mixture of a hydrophobic material and a water-leachable hydrophilic polymer material as is described in U.S. Patent Numbers 5,113,585 and 5,454,164, which are hereby incorporated by reference.
- the shaving strip aid 18 is received in a slot 29 in the housing 12 and is positioned parallel with the blades 16 and the guard member 28.
- the shaving aid strip 18 may be held in place through an interference fit with the slot 29, or may be fastened by adhesive or mechanical means.
- the retainer clip 20 which is shown in detail at Figure 12, is generally manufactured of an aluminum material having a coating, and is of similar shape in plan form as the elongated housing 12, being of rectangular form having arcuate end portions. It is preferred that the coating be on the outer surface and that the clip 20 be uncoated on its underside to provide galvanic protection for the blades. It is preferred that the coating is a polymer coating formed from materials such as polyester, epoxy or two-layer vinyl and polyester systems. The coating can also be an anodized coating. Because the retainer clip 20 surrounds the housing on upper and side surfaces contacting the skin, it is desirable that the coating provide low friction characteristics.
- the retainer clip 20 has four datum surfaces 27 formed such as by coining on the underside thereof at the rim 30, and the elongated housing has four mating datum surfaces 33 which are provided in a groove 31 formed on the lip 32 at the periphery of the housing 12.
- the lower edge 30 is received in the groove 31 and the datum surfaces 27 and 33 matingly contact along a predetermined plane.
- a pair of tabs 34 which provide a latch system for maintaining each of the datum surfaces 27 in contact with a respective datum surface 33 as will be explained below, extend downwardly through a pair of openings 36 and are bent inwardly, one toward the other, against the underside of the housing 12, to assemble the retainer ring onto the housing 12.
- the retainer clip 20 would be urged simply into its seat between the datum surfaces 27 and 33 in groove 31, and the load dispersed into the housing 12. Thus, the load is not transmitted to the tabs 34, allowing the tabs 34 to be relatively small.
- the housing upper surface at the skin-tensioning portions 22 and 23 and retainer clip 20 are arcuate in the transverse direction. This provides good skin-contour following, especially in an underarm region, and imparts stiffness to the retainer clip 20 to better hold on to the housing 12.
- the retainer clip 20 further has a linear coined portion forming a recess which serves as a datum surface 50 for contacting the upper ends of the blades 16, limiting upward movement of the blades relative to the blade guard 28.
- the datum surfaces 27 and 33 provide the mating surfaces between the retainer clip 20 and the housing 12 at the rim 30, and establish a plane which is parallel to, and at an established distance from, the recess 50, thereby controlling the extent of upward movement of the blades relative to the housing 12 and the blade guard 28.
- the interconnect member 14 generally comprises a unitary body 38 having a pair of opposed arms 39 and 40 extending outwardly from the body 38 which are employed to connect the housing 12 onto a razor handle (not shown).
- the interconnect member 14 is generally manufactured of a semi-rigid plastic material, such as a material sold under the trade name Noryl PX-1265, available from GE Plastics, for suitable strength, and has a pair of slotted V-shaped openings 42 and 44 formed in the upper portion of the body 38.
- the slotted openings are formed of a configuration to allow movement of the arms 39 and 40 towards one another to the extent that they may be received in the housing 12 during the assembly of the interconnect member onto the housing during manufacture, and thereafter form a permanent connection not intended to be removed.
- the lower handle receiving portion of the interconnect member 14 may take various forms depending upon the use of the safety razor system 10. That is, when the razor system is employed as a replaceable cartridge, the structure of the . body will be provided with structure as shown, formed to receive a razor handle, such as that described in PCT Patent Application W097/37819 or in copending U.S. Serial No. 08/802,381, each of which is herein incorporated by reference and referred to above. However, the razor system 10 may be employed with a handle of a different type, such as the rigid attachment of the body 38 onto, or in unitary formation with, a handle when the system is employed in a discardable razor.
- the housing 12 is supported on the interconnect member 14 such that pivotable movement is provided between the housing and the interconnect member during the shaving operation.
- a spring mounted on the handle and extending through the interconnect member 14 provides a return bias force assisting pivotal movement, as described in W097/37819.
- the plurality of blades 16 maintain their cutting edges in proper orientation, one relative to the other, during the shaving process, and that the blades be limited in their upward movement such that they do not extend upwardly beyond the designed limit, relative to the guard member 28. Maintaining proper position of the blades 16 relative to the guard 28 is essential to ensure integrity of the structure and proper operation of the razor system during its useful lifetime.
- a latch system is provided to ensure maintaining contact between each of the datum surfaces 27 and its respective datum surface 33.
- the latch system provides that the retainer clip 20 can be provided with four coined inwardly extending latch portions 46 having upwardly facing surfaces 47 (two of which are shown in Figures 6 and 12) which are spaced symmetrically about the edge 30 of the retainer clip.
- Four mating downwardly facing detent surfaces 48 shown in Figures 1, 4, and 5, are formed in the inner wall of the groove 31 of the housing 12.
- the retainer clip 20 is constructed such that inwardly extending latch portions 46 of the edge 30 extend inwardly of the inner wall of the groove 31, which results in the surfaces 47 and 48 being snapped into contact when . the retainer clip 20 is received onto the housing 12. Since latching surface 47, 48 can contribute to restraining the clip 20 from separating from housing 12, the tabs 34 that are bent into slots 36 can, therefore, be made relatively small.
- latch elements including both the pair of tabs 34 mating with the bottom surface of the housing 12 and the latching surfaces 47 and 48
- a more simple latch system may be employed, as is presently preferred, by utilizing only the two tabs 34 which are assembled as described above, when it is deemed that only that portion of the system is needed. That is, the latch portions 46 may be eliminated from the retainer clip 20 and the latching surfaces 47 and 48 deleted from the housing 12 when only the tabs 34 are needed to maintain the datum surfaces 27 and 33 in continuous contact.
- the bottom surface of the housing 12. as shown in Figure 3, has a pair of bosses 52 and 53 formed thereon, and a pair of recesses 55 and 56 are formed in the wall structure of the housing for receiving the arms 39 and 40.
- the slots 42 and 44 combined with the choice of a flexible plastic material as set forth above, allow for simple assembly, one time only during manufacturing, of the interconnect member 14 onto the housing 12 through insertion of the arms 39 and 40 into the respective cavities 55 and 56 when the arms are compressed inwardly towards one another, and allowed to assume the position shown in Figure 8 upon release. This allows assembly and retention of pivotably interconnected members retained securely as an assembly unit, and thereafter the blades can be inserted and retained by the retainer clip 20.
- the greater force produced during the shaving process, or due to dropping of the razor system 10 is absorbed by the larger bearing surfaces 60 and 61 which are not so limited as to surface area as the bearing surfaces 58 and 59 which of necessity are smaller due to their location within the cavities 55 and 56.
- the first bearing surfaces 59 are downwardly facing and the second bearing surfaces 61 are upwardly facing. As shown in Figure 11 , with the structural location of the bearings
- the elongated housing 12 is free to rotate about a virtual axis which is located substantially in the vicinity of the guard member 28. It is presently preferred that this virtual pivot axis is in front of the cutting edge of the primary blade and in proximity to or below a plane tangent to the leading and trailing blade cutting edges, as observed in an unloaded state free of cutting forces.
- the razor system 10 includes structure which is simple to manufacture and assemble, and which will withstand the rigors of inadvertent dropping or other mishaps which might tend to misalign the blades 16 or cause the interconnect member to become dislodged from the housing 12.
- the retainer ring 20 is fixed within the lip 32 in a manner to retain the blades 16 in the proper position relative to the guard member 28, due to contact between the datum surfaces 27, 33 and 50.
- the employment of a unitary member having arcuate ends as in the construction of the retainer ring 18 serves to provide rigidity to the structure.
- a retainer clip 20 manufactured of aluminum material, provides a sacrificial metal source when combined with the stainless steel blades, thus inhibiting corrosion of the steel blades.
- the upper exposed surface of the clip 20 can be coated to provide desirable surface features for aesthetics, or can be coated with a low friction coating.
- the use of the retainer clip 20 allows a more ruggedized, permanent connection of the blade housing 12 to the interconnect member, whereby the assembly is connected together once and then it resists disconnecting, such as in dropping.
- the retainer clip 20 is dedicated to permanently securing the parts to the blade housing, and the arms on the interconnect are strengthened to include two pairs of inboard and outboard bearing surfaces dedicated to resisting separation by impact loads.
- the assembly of the interconnect member 14 to the housing 12 is of simple construction, and the location of the coaxial bearing surfaces produces a pair of connected members which are capable of maintaining integrity of the structure during extreme usage.
- the retainer clip 20 does not secure the pivotably interconnected member 14 to blade housing 12, so the bearing area can be made larger to absorb the load of abusive dropping of a relatively large cartridge.
