Shaving system having a shaving device and a cleaning device

A shaving system comprising a shaving device having a shaving unit and a cleaning device for cleaning the shaving unit, the shaving unit comprising at least one hair-cutting unit having:

• an outer hair-cutting member comprising an annular shaving track with a plurality of hair-entry openings;
• and
• an inner hair-cutting member rotationally arranged inside of the outer hair-cutting member;
• the cleaning device comprising:
• a pot-shaped housing comprising a reservoir for holding a cleaning liquid, the pot-shaped housing including a top wall, the top wall including a receiving pit for receiving at least an end portion of the shaving unit including the at least one hair-cutting unit when the shaving unit is in a cleaning position;
• a supporting structure extending downwardly from the top wall of the pot-shaped housing to at least partially define the receiving pit, the supporting structure for supporting the shaving unit in the cleaning position;
• a pump and a conduit within the reservoir of the pot-shaped housing for transporting the cleaning liquid from the reservoir to the receiving pit;
• and
• a plurality of liquid-injection nozzles each communicating with the conduit and the pump and arranged and positioned in the receiving pit for directing the cleaning liquid delivered from the conduit directly to the at least one hair-cutting unit of the shaving unit when the shaving unit is supported in the cleaning position by the supporting structure;
• wherein each of the plurality of liquid-injection nozzles is arranged and positioned in the receiving pit for generating a respective jet of the cleaning liquid that, when the shaving unit is supported in the cleaning position by the supporting structure, propagates directly into the at least one hair-cutting unit of the shaving unit through one or more of the hair-entry openings of the at least one hair-cutting unit which are present in a sector of the annular shaving track of the outer hair-cutting member of the at least one hair-cutting unit, and that does not propagate into the at least one hair-cutting unit of the shaving unit through other ones of the hair-entry openings of the at least one hair-cutting unit which are present outside of said sector of the annular shaving track, said sector extending about a central axis of the annular shaving track over an angle of at most 180°.
