Abstract

A shaving razor cartridge with a housing having a guard, a cap, and one or more blades located between the guard and the cap. The guard is positioned in front of the one or more blades and the cap is positioned behind said one or more blades. A heat delivering element is mounted to the housing for transferring heat during a shaving stroke. The heat delivering element includes a skin contacting surface and an opposing bottom surface defined by a perimeter wall. An insulating member is positioned within the perimeter wall. The insulating member has a first surface facing the bottom surface of the heat delivering element and a second surface.

Claims (11)

1. A shaving razor system comprising:

a housing comprising a guard, a cap, and one or more blades located between the guard and the cap, said guard being positioned in front of said one or more blades, said cap being positioned behind said one or more blades,

a heat delivering element mounted to the housing for transferring heat during a shaving stroke, said heat delivering element comprising a skin contacting surface;

an insulating member that comprises a conductive heating track and an electrical circuit track that is spaced apart from the conductive heating track, wherein the electrical track has at least one thermal sensor; and

wherein the electrical circuit track extends within a perimeter of the conductive heating track.

2. The shaving razor system of claim 1 wherein said at least one thermal sensor comprises a pair of thermal sensors on opposing sides of the electrical circuit track.

3. The shaving razor system of claim 2 wherein the thermal sensors are spaced apart from the conductive heating track.

4. The shaving razor system of claim 1 wherein a top surface of the housing has a recess dimensioned to receive the heat delivering element.

5. The shaving razor system of claim 4 wherein the recess defines an aperture dimensioned to hold a portion of a flexible circuit that supplies power to the heating track and the electrical circuit track from a power source.

6. The shaving razor system of claim 1 wherein said at least one thermal sensor comprises a pair of thermal sensors on the electrical circuit track.

7. The shaving razor system of claim 1 wherein the heat delivering element is positioned in front of the guard.
