The present invention relates to a hair removal device, in particular electric shaver, comprising a working head attached to a handle for moving the working head along a skin surface, said working head including at least one hair removal tool defining a skin contact contour of the working head, wherein said at least one hair removal tool is movable relative to said handle under a skin contact pressure by means of a support structure to allow for pivoting of the working head's skin contact contour relative to the handle: According to an aspect the support structure movably supporting the hair removal tool relative to the handle is configured to allow for pivoting of the skin contact contour relative to the handle about an angle of about +/−15° or more under a contact force of about 0.75 N or less and/or about an angle of about +/−20° or more under a contact force of about 1.5 N or less.
A hair removal device, such as electric shaver, comprising a working head attached to a handle for moving the working head along a skin surface, said working head including at least one hair removal tool defining a skin contact contour of the working head, wherein said at least one hair removal tool is movable relative to said handle under a skin contact pressure by means of a support structure to allow for pivoting of the working head's skin contact contour relative to the handle, wherein a biasing device is provided for biasing and providing a motion resistance to said hair removal tool wherein said support structure and said biasing device are configured to allow for pivoting about a pivot axis of the skin contact contour relative to the handle about an angle of about +/−15° or more under a contact force of about 0.75 N or less.
A hair removal device, such as electric shaver, comprising a working head attached to a handle for moving the working head along a skin surface, said working head including at least one hair removal tool defining a skin contact contour of the working head, wherein said at least one hair removal tool is movable relative to said handle under a skin contact pressure by means of a support structure to allow for pivoting of the working head's skin contact contour relative to the handle, wherein a pivot range adjustment device is provided for adjusting the pivot angle about which the skin contact contour is pivotable relative to the handle, to have a first setting in which said angle is different form a second setting and wherein the angle deviates from about 3° both in the first and second setting.
A hair removal device, such as electric shaver, comprising a working head attached to a handle for moving the working head along a skin surface, said working head including at least one hair removal tool defining a skin contact contour of the working head, wherein said at least one hair removal tool is movable relative to said handle under a skin contact pressure by means of a support structure to allow for pivoting of the working head's skin contact contour relative to the handle, wherein a biasing device is provided for biasing and providing a motion resistance to said hair removal tool wherein said support structure and/or said biasing device are configured to allow for pivoting of the skin contact contour relative to the handle about different angle ranges dependent from the contact force and/or skin contact pressure with which the skin contact contour is applied onto the skin.
