Abstract
A blade for a blade exchangeable razor is provided which realizes easy use and smooth haircutting. The razor is adapted to exchangeably support a blade by a blade holder. The blade comprises a thin blade portion having an edge and a back support including side plates for supporting the thin blade portion therebetween and a pair of protrusions formed on the side plates in the longitudinal direction thereof at positions of the side plates close to lower ends of the blade holder. Since the pair of protrusions on the side plates of the back support are located proximal to the lower ends of the blade holder, hair cut by the edge moves away from the blade holder by the action of the protrusions, thereby preventing the cut hair from entering between the back support and the blade holder.
Claims11
A blade for a blade exchangeable razor which is adapted to be exchangeably mounted in a blade holder of the razor, the blade holder having a bifurcated opening for temporarily receiving the blade, the bifurcated opening having spaced apart lower ends, said blade comprising:
- a thin blade portion including a cutting edge;
- and a back support including a top portion, side plates for supporting said thin blade portion therebetween and a pair of protrusions formed on said side plates in a longitudinal thereof at positions close to said lower ends of the blade holder, protrusion having two longitudinally extending contacting points, said protrusions away from said thin blade portion between said longitudinally extending contacting points and having inner surfaces facing and spaced from said thin blade portion, said thin blade portion being in contact with and supported by said longitudinally extending contacting points.
A blade exchangeable razor comprising a blade holder and a blade which is adapted to be exchangeably mounted in a blade holder of the razor, said blade comprising:
- a thin blade portion including a cutting edge;
- and
- a back support for the blade portion, said back support having side plate portions, said side plate portions of the back support including a pair of protrusions, each protrusion having two longitudinally extending contacting points, said protrusions disposed outwardly away from said thin blade portion between said longitudinally extending contacting points and having inner surfaces facing and spaced from said thin blade portion, the blade portion being supported by and clamped between said contacting points.
A blade exchangeable razor having a blade and a blade holder assembly wherein said blade is adapted to be exchangeably mounted in a blade holder of the razor, said blade comprising:
- a thin portion including a cutting edge;
- and
- a back support including a top portion, side plates for supporting said thin blade portion therebetween and a pair of protrusions formed on said side plates in a longitudinal direction thereof, each protrusion having two longitudinally extending contacting points, said protrusions protruding away from said thin blade portion between said longitudinally extending contacting points and having inner surfaces spaced from the thin blade portion, one of the protrusions having a longitudinally extending upper end and a longitudinally extending lower end, the lower end terminating before the cutting edge of the thin blade portion, the other protrusion having a longitudinally extending upper and a longitudinally extending lower end, and the lower end of the other protrusion extending beyond the cutting edge of said thin blade portion such that the lower end of the protrusion covers the cutting edge with predetermined gaps in the associated side plate to thereby form a comb-type edge adjacent the cutting edge, the thin blade portion being in contact with and supported by said contacting points.
A blade exchangeable razor comprising a blade holder (22) and a blade (7) which is adapted to be exchangeably mounted in a blade holder (22) of the razor, said blade comprising:
- a thin blade portion (8) including a cutting edge (10);
- and
- a back support (9) having side plate portions (9a, 9b) to support the blade portion (8) therebetween, and adapted to be mounted in the blade holder (22), a pair of protrusions formed on said side plates in a longitudinal direction thereof at positions close to said lower ends of the blade holder, each protrusion having two longitudinally extending contacting points, said protrusions protruding away from said thin blade portion between said longitudinally extending contacting points and having inner surfaces facing and spaced from said thin blade portion, said thin blade portion being in contact with and supported by said longitudinally extending contacting points, one of the side plate portions extending beyond the cutting edge (10) of the thin blade portion (8) and having a plurality of gaps therein such that a lower end of said one of the side plate portions covers the cutting edge (10) and such that said plurality gaps form a comb-type edge (11).
