A shaving head configured to be moved along a shaving direction relative to skin during shaving of the skin, the shaving head including a housing, one or more blades mounted within the housing, and a hair moving mechanism connected to the housing and arranged in the shaving direction relative to the one or more blades, wherein the hair moving mechanism is configured to move hair relative to the skin in a direction towards the one or more blades during shaving such that movement of the shaving head on the skin brings hair extending from the skin into contact with the hair moving mechanism before bringing it in contact with the one or more blades,
- wherein the hair moving mechanism includes a hair moving surface which is arranged towards the skin during shaving, and a drive mechanism configured to move the hair moving surface relative to the housing in response to a movement of the skin relative to the housing, and
- the drive mechanism includes one or more driving wheels arranged to contact the skin, and a drivetrain connecting the driving wheels to the hair moving surface.
A shaving head configured to be moved along a shaving direction relative to skin during shaving of the skin, the shaving head including a housing, one or more blades mounted within the housing, and a hair moving mechanism connected to the housing and arranged in the shaving direction relative to the one or more blades, wherein the hair moving mechanism is configured to move hair relative to the skin in a direction towards the one or more blades during shaving such that movement of the shaving head on the skin brings hair extending from the skin into contact with the hair moving mechanism before bringing it in contact with the one or more blades,
- and wherein the hair moving mechanism includes a hair moving surface and the shaving head includes a drive mechanism including one or more drive wheels, the drive wheels of the drive mechanism and the hair moving mechanism each having a central axis and the central axes of the hair moving mechanism and the drive wheels having a different perpendicular distance from a shaving plane formed by the one or more blades.
A shaver comprising:
- a handle;
- and
- a shaving head, the shaving head comprising:
- a housing, one or more blades mounted within the housing, and a plurality of hair moving surfaces mounted on a roller and connected to the housing and arranged in a shaving direction relative to the one or more blades, wherein the plurality of hair moving surfaces move hair relative to the skin in a direction towards the one or more blades during shaving such that movement of the shaving head on the skin rotates the roller and brings hair extending from the skin into contact with the at least one of the plurality of hair moving surfaces before bringing it in contact with the one or more blades,
- wherein the plurality of hair moving surfaces are arranged towards the skin during shaving, and a drive mechanism is configured to move the hair moving surfaces relative to the housing in response to a movement of skin relative to the housing, and
- the drive mechanism includes one or more driving wheels arranged to contact the skin, and a drivetrain connecting the driving wheels to the hair moving surface.
