Abstract
The present disclosure is concerned with epilator having an epilator head that has a head housing and a skin contacting unit arranged for being pivotable with respect to the head housing around a first axis and a handle arranged for being held by a user's hand, wherein the epilator head is pivotably connected with the handle and is arranged for being pivotable with respect to the handle around a second axis, the first axis and the second axis being essentially perpendicular to each other and the first axis and the second axis have a distance to each other.
Claims18
An epilator comprising:
- an epilator head having a head housing and a skin contacting unit mounted at the head housing and arranged for being pivotable with respect to the head housing around a first axis;
- and
- a handle arranged for being held by a user's hand;
- wherein the head housing of the epilator head is arranged to be pivotable with respect to the handle around a second axis, the first axis and the second axis being essentially perpendicular to each other and the first axis and the second axis having a distance to each other;
- wherein the skin contacting unit has skin contacting elements that define a skin contacting plane, and the second axis always crosses the skin contacting plane irrespective of a pivot angle of the skin contacting unit relative to the head housing.
