Abstract
An electric shaving apparatus comprising a housing having a compartment for an electric power source, which compartment is closed by a cover, the housing sections being secured to each other by a snapped connection between two interengaging connection elements, at least one of the connection elements being elastically deflexible to establish or release the snapped connection. The cover comprises a projection which in the closed position of the cover blocks a movement of at least one of the connection elements.
Claims5
An electric shaving apparatus comprising a housing which is formed with a compartment which is closed by a pivotable cover and housing sections secured to each other by means of a snapped connection between two interengaging connection elements, at least one of the connection elements being elastically movable for establishing or releasing the snapped connection, said cover comprising a projection which in a closed position of the cover fills substantially the space between at least one of the housing sections and at least one of the connection elements thereby blocking movement of at least one of the connection elements to substantially prevent the inadvertent release of the snapped connection elements when the electric shaving apparatus is dropped onto a hard surface.
An electric shaving apparatus comprising a housing (1) which is formed with a compartment (7) which is closed by a pivotable cover (6), housing sections (4) and (5) being secured to each other by means of a snapped connection formed between two interengaging connection elements (8) and (9), the connection element (8) being elastically movable, said cover (6) comprising a projection (16) which in the closed position of the cover is situated between the connection elements (8) and (9) and a wall portion (10) of the housing section (4), the projection (16) filling substantially the entire space between the wall portion (10) and the connection element (9) thereby blocking the inadvertent displacement of the connection element (8) and of the wall portion (10).
