Abstract
A handle. The handle can have a main body and a first substantially flat arm having a first distal end and a first proximal end defining a first arm opening can be coupled to a first location of the main body. A second substantially flat arm having a second distal end and a second proximal end defining a second arm opening, can be coupled to a second location of the main body. The first and second distal ends can be in spaced relationship and have pivotally coupled therebetween a pivoting head having a trapezoidal prism shape.
Claims19
A handle comprising:
- a main body;
- a substantially flat first arm having a first distal end and a first proximal end defining a first arm opening, the first proximal end being coupled to a first location of the main body;
- a substantially flat second arm having a second distal end and a second proximal end defining a second arm opening, the second proximal end being coupled to a second location of the main body;
- and
- the first and second distal ends being in a spaced relationship and having pivotally coupled therebetween a pivoting head having a trapezoidal prism shape, the pivoting head being configured to receive a razor cartridge such that a face of the pivoting head extends through an opening of the razor cartridge to define a skin interfacing surface.
A handle comprising:
- a main body;
- a substantially flat first arm having a first distal end and a first proximal end defining a first arm opening, the first proximal end being coupled to a first protuberance on the main body, the first protuberance being operatively engaged with the first arm opening;
- a substantially flat second arm having a second distal end and a second proximal end defining a second arm opening, the second proximal end being coupled to a second protuberance on the main body, the second protuberance being operatively engaged with the second arm opening;
- and
- the first and second distal ends being in an opposed relationship and having pivotally coupled therebetween a pivoting head having a trapezoidal prism shape, the pivoting head being configured to receive a razor cartridge such that a face of the pivoting head extends through an opening of the razor cartridge to define a skin interfacing surface.
A handle comprising:
- a main body;
- a discrete, metal, substantially flat first arm having a first distal end and a first proximal end defining a first arm opening, the first proximal end being coupled to a first protuberance on the main body, the first protuberance being operatively engaged with the first arm opening;
- a discrete, metal, substantially flat second arm having a second distal end and a second proximal end defining a second arm opening, the second proximal end being coupled to a second protuberance on the main body, the second protuberance being operatively engaged with the second arm opening;
- and
- the first and second distal ends being in an opposed relationship and having pivotally coupled therebetween a pivoting head having a trapezoidal prism shape, the pivoting head being configured to receive a razor cartridge such that a face of the pivoting head extends through an opening of the razor cartridge to define a skin interfacing surface.
