Cosmetic device with exchangeable application head

A cosmetic device comprising:

• an exchangeable application head and a device body, wherein
• the device body contains a motor and driver, an actuating switch, a power supply, and a head recognition element;
• wherein
• the head recognition element comprises at least one mechanical switch disposed on a carrier fixed at the device body;
• a flexible actuation area is disposed in front of the at least one mechanical switch, the flexible actuation area has at least one rigid element, wherein the at least one rigid element is provided for the at least one mechanical switch such that upon executing pressure onto the at least one rigid element, the at least one rigid element elastically moves towards the at least one mechanical switch and switches on the at least one mechanical switch and that upon releasing the pressure from the at least one rigid element, the at least one rigid element elastically moves away from the at least one mechanical switch and switches off the at least one mechanical switch;
• the exchangeable application head has at least one recognition generating protrusion actuating through the flexible actuation area on one of the at least one mechanical switch when the exchangeable application head is mounted at the device body, wherein the recognition generating protrusion is actuating on the at least one rigid element in the flexible actuation area when the exchangeable application head is clipped on the body cover by executing pressure onto the at least one rigid element, wherein the flexible actuation area has at least one soft element, wherein the at least one soft element is disposed between a wall of the device and the at least one rigid element and is connected water-tightly to the at least one rigid element and the wall of the device.
