Abstract
The disclosed depilation apparatus comprises movable members for pulling out hair to be removed, said members being driven by an electric motor housed inside a casing capable of being hand-held. The pulling out members provided in said apparatus consist of two movably mounted combs in translation with respect to the same axis (X-Y) has the motor-actuated driving member (3), and which is imparted with an alternating translation motion. However, only one of said combs is coupled with said driving member, the other comb being mounted idle. Furthermore, the teeth of both combs are arranged in a same plane and interleaved between each other with a certain gap in order to make possible the pinching and pulling out of hair to be removed. Said apparatus is intended to be used for remove hair from the skin.
Claims7
Depilating appliance comprising movable members for plucking-out hairs to be removed which are actuated by an electric motor housed within a casing which can be held in one hand, and comprising an actuating member driven in a reciprocating movement of translation, wherein the hair-plucking members comprise two combs having spaced teeth which combs are mounted for translational motion along the same axis (X-Y) as the actuating member (3) and only one of which combs is coupled with the actuating member with the other being mounted for free motion, the teeth of said two combs being located in the same plane and positioned in interengaged relation to each other, with respective teeth of one of said combs being positioned in the space between two teeth of the other comb, the said space between said teeth being wider than the width of the said tooth positioned in said space so as to provide clearance between adjacent interengaged teeth.
