Heated shaving razors
View Patent ↗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 the 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.
1. A shaving razor cartridge 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 and an opposing bottom surface; and
an insulating member having a first surface facing the bottom surface of the heat delivering element and a second surface, wherein the second surface of the insulating member comprises a conductive heating track and an electrical circuit track on the second surface that is spaced apart from the conductive heating track, wherein the electrical track has at least one thermal sensor.
2. The shaving razor cartridge of claim 1 wherein the housing defines at least one opening extending into the housing.
3. The shaving razor cartridge of claim 1 wherein the insulating member is fixed to the heat delivering element with an adhesive.
4. The shaving razor cartridge of claim 1 wherein the electrical circuit track extends within a perimeter of the conductive heating track.
5. The shaving razor cartridge of claim 1 further said at least one thermal sensor comprising a pair of thermal sensors on opposing sides of the electrical circuit track.
6. The shaving razor cartridge of claim 5 wherein the thermal sensors are spaced apart from the conductive heating track.
7. The shaving razor cartridge of claim 1 further comprising a protective coating covering the second surface of the insulating member.
