Razor cartridge with a shaving aid and a method of manufacturing a razor cartridge

1. A method for manufacturing a razor cartridge, comprising the steps of:

providing one or more razor blades, each having a length;

forming a body attached to the one or more razor blades, wherein the body includes a first channel aft of the one or more razor blades, a second channel forward of the one or more razor blades, and one or more passages extending between the first channel and the second channel;

injecting a shaving aid material into at least one of the first channel, second channel, or the one or more passages;

wherein the one or more passages extending between the first channel and the second channel enables the shaving aid material to travel from the one of the first channel, the second channel, or the one or more passages into the others of the first channel, the second channel, or the one or more passages.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the body further comprises one or more ports disposed in one or more of the first channel, second channel, and one or more passages, and wherein the shaving aid material is injected through the one or more ports.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the one or more ports are disposed in the first channel.

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the one or more ports are disposed in the one or more passages.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of the one or more passages is disposed on a lateral side of the one or more razor blades.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more passages and in fluid communication with the first and second channels.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the one or more passages include a first lateral channel and a second lateral channel, wherein the first lateral channel and the second lateral channel are disposed on opposite lateral sides of the one or more razor blades.

8. The method of claim 7 wherein the first channel and the second channel both extend substantially the entire length of the one or more razor blades.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein in the step of injecting shaving aid material into one of the first channel, second channel, or the one or more passages, enough shaving aid material is injected to substantially fill the first channel, second channel, and the one or more passages.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the step of forming the body includes utilizing a first form and a second form, and wherein the body comprises a material and the material is injected in a void between the first form and the second form.

11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising the step of forming the shaving aid material, which includes providing a third form to be coupled with the first form.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein when the shaving aid material is injected into at least one of the first channel, second channel, or the one or more passages, the body is disposed between the first form and the third form.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the third form includes one or more ports aligned with one or more of the first channel, second channel, and one or more passages, and wherein the shaving aid material is injected through the one or more ports.

14. A method for manufacturing a razor cartridge, comprising the steps of:

providing one or more razor blades, each having a length;

forming a body attached to the one or more razor blades;

positioning a form contiguous with the body, wherein the form includes a first channel aft of the one or more razor blades, a second channel forward of the one or more razor blades, and one or more lateral channels extending between the first channel and second channel, wherein the one or more channels are disposed on one or both lateral sides of the one or more razor blades;

injecting a shaving aid material into at least one of the first channel, second channel, or the one or more lateral channel;

wherein the one or more lateral channels extending between the first channel and the second channel enables the shaving aid material to travel from the one of the first channel, second channel, or the one or more lateral channels into the others of the first channel, second channel, or the one or more passages.

15. A method for manufacturing a razor assembly, comprising the steps of:

providing one or more razor blades, each having a length;

forming a body attached to the one or more razor blades, wherein the body includes a first channel aft of the one or more razor blades, a second channel forward of the one or more razor blades, and one or more passages extending between the first channel and the second channel;

injecting a shaving aid material into at least one of the first channel, second channel, or the one or more passages;

wherein the one or more passages extending between the first channel and the second channel enables the shaving aid material to travel from the one of the first channel, the second channel, or the one or more passages into the others of the first channel, the second channel, or the one or more passages; and

attaching a handle to the body.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein in the step of injecting shaving aid material into one of the first channel, second channel, or the one or more passages, enough shaving aid material is injected to substantially fill the first channel, second channel, and the one or more passages.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the step of forming the body includes utilizing a first form and a second form, and wherein the body comprises a material and the material is injected in a void between the first form and the second form.

18. The method of claim 17 , further comprising the step of forming the shaving aid material, which includes providing a third form to be coupled with the first form.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein when the shaving aid material is injected into at least one of the first channel, second channel, or the one or more passages, the body is disposed between the first form and the third form.
