Reciprocating-type electric shaver

An electric shaver comprising:

• an outer blade;
• an oscillator that is driven to reciprocate in a reciprocating direction by a motor, the motor being installed inside a main body and
• an inner blade that reciprocates while coming into sliding contact with an inner surface of the outer bade in cooperation with the oscillator,
• wherein the oscillator includes:
• a first attachment portion and a second attachment portion on respective end sides of the oscillator, and the first attachment portion and the second attachment portion being respectively attached to the main body,
• a movable base that is located between the first attachment portion and the second attachment portion in the reciprocating direction, the movable base having a first support portion and a second support portion disposed on respective end sides of the movable base and the movable base being supported by the first attachment portion and the second attachment portion via the first support portion and the second support portion, respectively, the first support portion including a first linear portion disposed on a first inner side of the oscillator, a second linear portion disposed on a first outer side of the oscillator, and a first curved portion connecting the first linear portion and the second linear portion at bottom ends of the first linear portion and the second linear portion, top ends of the first linear portion and the second linear portion being separated from each other to form a first opening towards the inner blade, the second linear portion of the first support portion being connected to the first attachment portion at a top section of the second linear portion, the first linear portion of the first support portion being connected to a corresponding one of the end sides of the movable base at a top section of the first linear portion, the second support portion including a third linear portion disposed on a second inner side of the oscillator, a fourth linear portion disposed on a second outer side of the oscillator, and a second curved portion connecting the third linear portion and the fourth linear portion at bottom ends of the third linear portion and the fourth linear portion, top ends of the third linear portion and the fourth linear portion being separated from each other to form a second opening towards the inner blade, the fourth linear portion of the second support portion being connected to the second attachment portion at a top section of the fourth linear portion, the third linear portion of the second support portion being connected to a corresponding one of the end sides of the movable base at a top section of the third linear portion, and the movable base being driven to reciprocate by the motor in a state of being suspended from the first attachment portion and the second attachment portion by the second linear portion and the fourth linear portion respectively, and
• a cooperation portion that protrudes from the movable base, and that cooperates with the inner blade,
• wherein the second linear portion of the first support portion and the fourth linear portion of the second support portion each form a respective flexible oscillating piece, and
• wherein at a stationary position of the movable base, the second linear portion of the first support portion is tilted with respect to a first virtual line, the first virtual line passing through the top end of the second linear portion and arranged orthogonal to the reciprocating direction, such that the bottom end of the second linear portion is located more outward, in the reciprocating direction, than the top end of the second linear portion with respect to the first virtual line, and the fourth linear portion of the second support portion is tilted with respect to a second virtual line, the second virtual line passing through the top end of the fourth linear portion and arranged orthogonal to the reciprocating direction, such that the bottom end of the fourth linear portion is located more outward, in the reciprocating direction, than the top end of the fourth linear portion with respect to the second virtual line.
