Embodiments of present disclosure relates to a shaving assembly and a hair cutting appliance comprising the shaving assembly. The shaving assembly comprises: a supporting arm extending in a first direction; a cutting element comprising at least one moving tooth arranged along the first direction; a guard foil extending in the first direction and surrounding the cutting element, the guard foil comprising: a contact surface and a bent part, wherein an angle between the contact surface and the supporting arm is an acute angle, and at least one guard tooth slot is formed across the contact surface and the supporting arm, wherein the shaving assembly further comprises: a blocking member extending between the moving tooth and the supporting arm in a second direction that is substantially perpendicular to the contact surface, wherein the blocking member is adapted to facilitate hair being released from the guard tooth slot when the guard tooth slot is moved against the hair.
1. A shaving assembly comprising:
a supporting arm extending in a first direction;
a cutting element comprising at least one moving tooth arranged along the first direction;
a guard foil extending in the first direction and surrounding the cutting element, the guard foil comprising:
a contact surface and a bent part, wherein the contact surface is adapted to be in contact with skin, and the bent part extends in the first direction for fixing the guard foil on the supporting arm, and wherein an angle between the contact surface and the supporting arm is an acute angle, and
a plurality of guard tooth slots formed across the contact surface and the supporting arm and arranged along the first direction, wherein each of the guard tooth slots is adapted to direct hair to the moving tooth when the guard tooth slot is moved against the hair,
a blocking member extending between the moving tooth and the supporting arm in a second direction that is substantially perpendicular to the contact surface, wherein the blocking member is adapted to facilitate the hair being released from the guard tooth slot when the guard tooth slot is moved against the hair, and wherein the blocking member comprises a first blocking part extending between the moving tooth and the supporting arm in the second direction and comprising a surface facing the guard tooth slot.
2. The shaving assembly of claim 1 , wherein the supporting arm comprises a plurality of grooves arranged along the first direction and corresponding to the plurality of guard tooth slots, wherein an end of each guard tooth slot extends to a bottom of a corresponding one of the grooves and an opposite end of each guard tooth slot extends to the moving tooth.
3. The shaving assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first blocking part comprises a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is connected to a root associated with the moving tooth, and the second end is separated from an inner wall of the supporting arm by a distance.
4. The shaving assembly of claim 1 , wherein the blocking member further comprises at least one second blocking part extending between the moving tooth and the supporting arm in the second direction.
5. The shaving assembly of claim 4 , wherein the at least one second blocking part comprises two second blocking parts arranged at different sides of the first blocking part.
6. The shaving assembly of claim 4 , wherein the second blocking part comprises a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is connected to the moving tooth and the second end of the second blocking part is separated from an inner wall of the supporting arm by a distance.
7. The shaving assembly of claim 6 , wherein the second end of the second blocking part has a surface matching with an inner wall of the supporting arm.
8. The shaving assembly of claim 7 , wherein the surface of the second end of the second blocking part extends along the inner wall of the supporting arm and beyond a bottom of a groove of the supporting arm, each groove corresponding to each guard tooth slot.
9. The shaving assembly of claim 4 , wherein the second blocking part comprises a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is connected to a finger associated with each of a plurality of grooves of the supporting arm, each groove corresponding to each guard tooth slot, and the second end is separated from the moving tooth by a distance.
10. The shaving assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first blocking part comprises a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is connected to a bottom of each of a plurality of grooves of the supporting arm, each groove corresponding to each guard tooth slot, and the second end is separated from the moving tooth by a distance.
11. The shaving assembly of claim 1 , wherein the blocking member is integrally formed with the moving tooth.
12. The shaving assembly of claim 1 , wherein the blocking member is integrally formed with the supporting arm.
