Electric head shaver
An electric shaver includes a housing and a cutter head extending down from the housing. The housing contains the motor and is shaped to provide a grip that includes a pair of concave surfaces on the sides. An additional pair of concave surfaces is formed in the undersurface of the housing that accommodates the backs of the user's fingers when the cutter head is held for shaving.
1. An electric shaver comprising:
a housing for containing an electrical source and drive-related components, said housing having a length and a width, and including two substantially opposed and substantially parallel sides along said length, said housing further including a bottom;
a cutter mechanism located beneath said bottom of said housing and spaced therefrom;
a central hub extending from said bottom of said housing to said cutter mechanism and connecting said cutter mechanism to said housing;
said cutter mechanism including a cutting surface defining a plane;
a first pair of elongated recesses formed on said sides of said housing, said first pair of elongated recesses being substantially parallel to each other and lying in a plane that is spaced apart from but parallel to the plane of said cutting surface, and
a second set of elongated spaced apart recesses formed in said bottom of said housing along said width entirely, and extending upwardly into said bottom, said recesses of said second set being located on opposite sides of said hub and extending perpendicular to said first pair of recesses.
2. The electric shaver as claimed in claim 1 wherein each of said recesses is defined by a concave surface adapted to accommodate a portion of a user's fingers therein.
3. An electric shaver comprising:
a housing for containing an electrical source and drive-related components, said housing having a length and a width, and including two substantially opposed and substantially parallel sides along said length, said housing further including a bottom surface, and a bottom surface, said bottom surface defining a first plane;
a cutter mechanism located beneath said bottom surface of said housing and spaced therefrom;
a central hub extending from said bottom surface of said housing to said cutter mechanism and connecting said cutter mechanism to said housing;
said cutter mechanism including a cutting surface defining a second plane, said second plane being parallel to but spaced from said first plane;
a first pair of elongated recesses formed on said sides of said housing, said first pair of elongated recesses being substantially parallel to each other and lying in a third plane that is spaced apart from but parallel to said first and second planes;
a second set of elongated spaced apart recesses formed in said bottom surface of said housing along said width entirely, and extending upwardly into said bottom surface, said recesses of said second set being located on opposite sides of said hub and extending perpendicular to said first pair of recesses, and
wherein each of said recesses is defined by a concave surface adapted to accommodate a portion of a user's fingers therein.
