Abstract
Electric shaver provided with at least one cutter unit, a drive unit for driving said at least one cutter unit and a display device for displaying information, wherein said drive unit, when being active, is operable in different operation modes, wherein a mode input element is provided for switching the drive unit into different operation modes.
Claims18
An electric shaver, comprising at least one cutter unit, a drive unit comprising a motor for driving said at least one cutter unit, an ON-OFF switch for activating and deactivating the drive unit and a display device for displaying shaver information, wherein said drive unit, when active, is operable in more than one operation mode comprising at least first and second speed modes, where the cutter unit is driven at a first speed in the first speed mode and at a second speed different from the first speed in the second speed mode, wherein a mode input element is provided for switching the drive unit into one of the first or second speed modes when the drive unit is active causing the cutter unit to be driven at one of the first speed or the second speed, wherein said mode input element switches the display device into different display modes when the drive unit is inactive such that when said mode input element is activated a first time with the drive unit inactive, first shaver information is caused to be displayed on the display device so as to define a first display mode and when said mode input element is activated a second time after the first time with the drive unit inactive, second shaver information is caused to be displayed on the display device so as to define a second display mode, wherein the second information comprises one of shaving runs information, cleaning information or cutter unit wear information, wherein the drive unit stays inactive between activation of the mode input element at the first and second times.
An electric shaver, comprising at least one cutter unit, a drive unit comprising a motor for driving said at least one cutter unit, an ON-OFF switch for activating and deactivating the drive unit and a display device for displaying shaver information, wherein said drive unit, when active, is operable in more than one operation mode comprising at least first and second speed modes, where the cutter unit is driven at a first speed in the first speed mode and at a second speed different from the first speed in the second speed mode, wherein a mode input element is provided for switching the drive unit into one of the first or second speed modes when the drive unit is active causing the cutter unit to be driven at one of the first speed or the second speed, wherein said mode input element switches the display device into different display modes when the drive unit is inactive such that when said mode input element is activated a first time with the drive unit inactive, first shaver information is caused to be displayed on the display device and when said mode input element is activated a second time after the first time with the drive unit inactive, second shaver information is caused to be displayed on the display device, wherein the second information comprises non-operation mode information.
