Abstract
A depilation apparatus is provided which comprises at least one pair of depilation rollers (3, 4; 5, 6) arranged at the location of an opening (2) in the apparatus for access to their circumferential surfaces, which rollers are rotatably supported, which are rotatable in opposite directions, and which cooperate circumferentially with one another, the depilation rollers being supported to project freely with one of their end portions and the opening in the apparatus at least partly exposing the freely projecting end portions of the depilation rollers.
Claims16
A depilation apparatus comprising at least one pair of depilation rollers which are arranged at the location of a main opening in the apparatus which provides access to their circumferential surfaces, which rollers are rotatably supported, are rotatable in opposite directions, and extend in a direction parallel to the main opening to cooperate circumferentially with one another along their length, one of said rollers being drivable by means of a motor, the depilation rollers performing a rotary movement which is directed into the interior of the apparatus at the location where said rollers cooperate circumferentially, the depilation rollers being supported to project freely with one of their end portions extending transverse to the main opening, and an edge portion of the housing being recessed relative to said end portions to form an additional opening in the apparatus that at least partly exposes the freely projecting end portions of the depilation rollers.
A depilation apparatus comprising at least two pairs of depilation rollers which are arranged at the location of an opening in the apparatus which provides access to their circumferential surfaces, which rollers are rotatably supported, are rotatable in opposite directions, and cooperate circumferentially with one another, one of said rollers being drivable by means of a motor, the depilation rollers performing a rotary movement which is directed into the interior of the apparatus at the location where the rollers cooperate circumferentially, the depilation rollers being supported to project freely with one of their end portions, the opening in the apparatus at least partly exposing the freely projecting end portions of the rollers;
- wherein two pairs of depilation rollers, disposed axially in tandem, are arranged to be coaxial with one another and the freely projecting end portions of the depilation rollers of both pairs are remote from one another.
A depilation apparatus comprising at least one pair of depilation rollers which are arranged at the location of an opening in the apparatus which provides access to their circumferential surfaces, which rollers are rotatably supported, are rotatable in opposite directions, and cooperate circumferentially with one another, one of said rollers being drivable by means of a motor, the depilation rollers performing a rotary movement which is directed into the interior of the apparatus at the location where said rollers cooperate circumferentially, the depilation rollers being supported to project freely with one of their end portions, an edge portion of the housing being recessed relative to the ends of the depilation rollers to form an opening in the apparatus that at least partly exposes the freely projecting end portions of the depilation rollers, and a protective comb associated with the depilation rollers, which comb extends over the opening in the apparatus and comprises spaced-apart comb teeth which extend in the axial direction of the depilation rollers.
A depilation apparatus comprising at least one pair of depilation rollers which are arranged at the location of an opening in the apparatus which provides access to their circumferential surfaces, which rollers are rotatably supported, are rotatable in opposite directions, and cooperate circumferentially with one another, one of said rollers being drivable by means of a motor, the depilation rollers performing a rotary movement which is directed into the interior of the apparatus at the location where said rollers cooperate circumferentially, the depilation rollers being supported to project freely with one of their end portions, an edge portion of the housing being recessed relative to the ends of the depilation rollers to form an opening in the apparatus that at least partly exposes the freely projecting end portions of the depilation rollers, and a protective comb associated with the depilation rollers, which comb extends over the opening in the apparatus and is constructed as a protective cover surrounding the depilation rollers, which comb comprises spaced-apart comb teeth which extend in the axial direction of the depilation rollers, the comb teeth at least partly enclosing the freely projecting end portions of the depilation rollers which are exposed by the opening in the apparatus.
A depilation apparatus comprising at least one pair of depilation rollers which are arranged at the location of an opening in the apparatus which provides access to their circumferential surfaces, which rollers are rotatably supported, are rotatable in opposite directions, and cooperate circumferentially with one another, one of said rollers being drivable by means of a motor, the depilation rollers performing a rotary movement which is directed into the interior of the apparatus at the location where said rollers cooperate circumferentially, the depilation rollers being supported to project freely with one of their end portions, an edge portion of the housing being recessed relative to the ends of the depilation rollers to form an opening in the apparatus that at least partly exposes the freely projecting end portions of the depilation rollers, and a protective comb associated with the depilation rollers, which comb extends over the opening in the apparatus and is constructed to be detachable from the apparatus, which comb comprises spaced-apart comb teeth which extend in the axial direction of the depilation rollers.
