Abstract
A cleaning device for razor cartridges, particularly of the "twin blade" type, having a casing with a socket into which a cartridge may be snapped in place, the casing having an inlet for water from a faucet and channels directing the flow of water and producing jets, the cartridge being held such that the jets are aimed directly at the space between the blades so that water flows between and around the blades and through passages in the cartridge to flush accumulated soap and shaving residue; the cleaning device is disclosed in the cap of a shaving foam dispenser and in the case in which the razors are put on sale.
Claims13
A cleaning device for razor cartridges having an exterior face with at least one blade projecting therefrom and water passages extending inwardly from said exterior face through said cartridge past said blade comprising:
- a casing having a socket into which a cartridge may be inserted to a fixed position with the outer edges of said cartridge adjacent the walls of said socket and with said exterior face opposite a bottom portion of said socket;
- an inlet in said casing for water;
- channel means for directing the flow of water from said inlet into said bottom portion of said socket;
- means for locking the cartridge in said fixed position in said socket such that water channeled from said inlet is directed into said socket by said channel means and toward said cartridge against the edge of a blade of said cartridge and is substantially confined to escape from the socket by passing inwardly through said passages in the cartridge to flush soap and shaving residue accumulated in and around said blade.
A cleaning device for razor cartridges of the "twin blade" type having an exterior face with twin blades projecting therefrom and water pasages extending inwardly from said exterior face through said cartridge past the edges of said blades comprising:
- a casing having a socket into which a cartridge may be inserted to a fixed position with the outer edges of said cartridge adjacent the walls of said socket and with said exterior face opposite a bottom portion of said socket;
- an inlet in said casing for water;
- channel means for directing the flow of water from said inlet into the bottom portion of said socket;
- means for locking the cartridge in position in said socket such that water channeled from the inlet is directed into the bottom portion of said socket and against the edges of both blades and any space formed between said blades and is substantially confined to escape from the socket by passing inwardly through said passages in the cartridge to flush soap and shaving residue accumulated in and around the blades.
A combined shaving foam dispenser cap and cleaning device for razor cartridges of the "twin blade" type having spaced blades and water passages adjacent the blades, said cap having a socket into which a cartridge may be inserted to a position closely surrounded by said socket, said cap having an inlet for water from a faucet and channels directing the flow of water and producing jets, means included in said socket for positioning said cartridge such that the jets are aimed directly at the space between the blades so that water flows between and around the blades and escapes substantially entirely by passing inwardly through said passages in the cartridge to flush accumulated soap and shaving residue.
