Abstract
A razor blade assembly is provided with blade means disposed between a cap member and a platform member and is adapted to be connected to a razor handle. The platform member has journal bearing means for receiving razor handle mounting means and cam means for receiving a biasing force exerted by said razor handle. The journal bearing means form a pivot axis for pivotal movement of the razor blade assembly thereabout and the platform member cam means is in engagement with a cam follower on the handle when the blade assembly is mounted on the razor handle.
Claims18
A razor blade assembly comprising a platform member, a blade means, and a cap member, said blade means being permanently disposed between said platform member and said cap member;
- journal bearing means disposed on said razor blade assembly and adapted for connection with journals disposed on a razor handle to form a pivot axis for pivotal movement of said razor blade assembly upon said razor handle;
- and
- cam means disposed on said razor blade assembly, said cam means including two intersecting surfaces forming a cavity having an internal angle with an apex removed from said pivot axis for receiving a biasing force from a cam follower means extending from said handle.
A razor blade assembly comprising blade means, a cap member and a platform member,
- said razor blade assembly having journal bearing means therein for receiving journal means of a razor handle, and cam means for receiving a biasing force exerted by said razor handle, said journal bearing means forming a pivot axis for pivotal movement of said razor blade assembly thereabout, said cam means including two intersecting surfaces forming a cavity having an internal angle with an apex removed from said pivot axis, said cavity being in engagement with cam follower means extending from said razor handle when said blade assembly is attached to said handle.
A razor blade assembly comprising blade means disposed between a cap member and a platform member, said razor blade assembly being adapted to be connected to a razor handle having journal means for mounting said blade assembly thereon and a cam follower means for exerting a biasing force on said blade assembly, said razor blade assembly having journal bearing means for receiving said journal means on said handle to provide a pivot axis for said blade assembly, and cam means extending from said blade assembly, said cam means including two intersecting surfaces forming a cavity having an internal angle with an apex removed from said pivot axis for engagement with said cam follower means.
A razor blade assembly comprising blade means disposed between a cap member and a platform member and adapted to be attached to a razor handle having journal means for mounting said blade assembly and cam follower means for exerting a biasing force upon said blade assembly, said razor blade assembly including journal bearing means disposed therein and cam means disposed thereon, said journal bearing means being adapted to receive said journal means on said handle to attach said razor blade assembly to said handle, said journal bearing means providing a pivot axis for pivotal movement of said blade assembly thereabout, said cam means including two intersecting surfaces forming a cavity having an internal angle with an apex removed from said pivot axis for engagement with said cam follower when said blade assembly is attached to said handle.
A razor blade assembly for attachment to a razor handle, said blade assembly comprising a platform means including a guard portion extending substantially from a first end of said blade assembly to a second end of said blade assembly, blade means, and cap means, said cap means and said platform means being permanently joined together with said blade means disposed therebetween, pivotal mounting means formed integrally with said blade assembly intermediate said first and second ends thereof for connection to complemental mounting means of said razor handle, said pivotal mounting means permitting pivotal movement of said blade assembly on said handle when said blade assembly is connected to said handle;
- and
- cam means formed integrally with said blade assembly intermediate said first and second ends, said cam means including two intersecting surfaces forming a cavity having an internal angle with an apex removed from a pivot axis provided by said pivotal mounting means.
A razor blade assembly for attachment to a razor handle, said blade assembly comprising molded plastic platform means, blade means, and cap means, said cap means and said platform means being permanently joined together with said blade means disposed therebetween, pivotal mounting means formed integrally with said platform means for engagement with complemental mounting means of said razor handle, said pivotal mounting means permitting pivotal movement of said blade assembly on said handle when said blade assembly is engaged with said handle, and cam means molded integrally with said platform means and extending therefrom, said cam means providing first and second substantially flat intersecting surfaces forming a cavity having an internal angle with an apex removed from a pivot axis defined by said pivotal mounting means, said flat surfaces of said cavity being adapted to receive cam follower means of said handle.
A razor blade assembly for attachment to a razor handle, said blade assembly comprising platform means, blade means, and cap means, said blade means being disposed between said platform means and said cap means, and structure having journal bearing means therein for engagement with journal means of said razor handle, whereby said blade assembly is pivotally movable on said razor handle when said blade assembly is engaged with said razor handle, said journal bearing means defining an axis for said pivotal movement;
- and
- cam means extending from said platform means, said cam means including two intersecting surfaces forming a cavity having an internal angle with an apex removed from said axis.
