Abstract
A shaving blade cartridge includes a housing extending along a longitudinal axis, having first and second longitudinal sides, and being provided with a through hole extending transversally to the longitudinal axis through the housing. The shaving blade cartridge also includes at least one cutting blade and a clip retaining the at least one cutting blade in the housing and having a first leg, a second leg, and a clip body. The first and second legs of the clip are approximately parallel. The shaving blade cartridge is such that the first leg of the clip surrounds the first longitudinal side, and the second leg of the clip is received in the through hole.
Claims20
A shaving blade cartridge comprising:
- a housing extending along a longitudinal axis (X-X), having a top side, a bottom side opposite to the top side, first and second longitudinal sides, each being approximately parallel and extending longitudinally along the longitudinal axis (X-X), and first and second lateral sides being approximately parallel and extending along an axis transverse to the longitudinal axis (X-X) and extending between the top and bottom sides, the first and second longitudinal sides and the first and second lateral sides forming together an external surface of the housing, the housing being provided with a through hole extending transversally to the longitudinal axis (X-X) through the housing between the top side and the bottom side;
- at least one cutting blade mounted in the housing between the first and second longitudinal sides, and having a cutting edge extending along the longitudinal axis (X-X);
- and
- a clip retaining the at least one cutting blade in the housing and having a first leg, a second leg and a clip body extending between the first and second legs, the first leg and the second leg of the clip being approximately parallel;
- wherein at least a portion of the first leg of the clip (i) is exposed by the housing, and (ii) extends around the first longitudinal side and surrounds the external surface of housing and at least a portion of the bottom side of the housing, and
- wherein at least a portion of the second leg of the clip is (i) received in the through hole, and (ii) concealed by the housing.
A shaving blade cartridge comprising:
- a housing including a first receiver and a second receiver, the housing extending along a longitudinal axis (X-X), having a top side, a bottom side opposite to the top side and first and second longitudinal sides, the first longitudinal side including a groove and each of the first and second longitudinal sides extending longitudinally along the longitudinal axis between the top and bottom sides to define an external surface of the housing;
- at least one cutting blade mounted in the housing between the first and second longitudinal sides, and having a cutting edge extending along the longitudinal axis;
- at least two clips retaining the at least one cutting blade in the housing, each of the at least two clips including a first leg, a second leg and a clip body extending between the first and second legs,
- a width of the housing from the first longitudinal side to the second longitudinal side being greater than a width defined between the groove in the first longitudinal side and the second longitudinal side;
- and
- wherein the first leg of each clip extends along (i) the longitudinal axis, around the external surface of the housing, and into the groove in the first longitudinal side to abut a protruding portion on the bottom side of the housing, and (ii) a transversal axis (Y-Y) and a lateral axis (Z-Z) to surround the first longitudinal side, and the second leg of each clip is received respectively by the first receiver and the second receiver.
A shaving blade cartridge comprising:
- a housing extending along a longitudinal axis (X-X), having a top side, a bottom side opposite to the top side, and first and second longitudinal sides, each being approximately parallel and extending longitudinally along the longitudinal axis between the top and bottom sides to form an external surface of the housing, the housing being provided with (i) a through hole extending transversally to the longitudinal axis through the housing between the top side and the bottom side, and (ii) a groove on the first longitudinal side;
- at least one cutting blade mounted in the housing between the first and second longitudinal sides, and having a cutting edge extending along the longitudinal axis;
- at least two clips retaining the at least one cutting blade in the housing, each of the at least two clips including a first leg, a second leg, and a clip body extending between the first leg and the second leg, the first and second legs being approximately parallel, the first leg of each clip disposed in the groove in the first longitudinal side and surrounds the external surface and at least a portion of the bottom side of the housing, the second leg of clip received in the through hole;
- a guard bar member forward of the at least one cutting blade extending between the at least two clips;
- and
- a cap member aft of the at least one cutting blade extending between the at least two clips.
