Dry shaver

In a dry shaver comprising:

• a housing:
• a head frame mounted on said housing and supporting a shaving head including
• (a) an elongated outer shearing foil in a floating manner, said head frame formed with a stopper defined at the top of the head frame so that said stopper is disposed at a first height, and said head frame surrounding the shearing foil and adapted to come into contact with a user's skin and
• (b) an inner cutter in longitudinally reciprocating hair shearing engagement with said outer shearing foil;
• a drive element connected to reciprocate said inner cutter relative to said outer shearing foil;
• said outer shearing foil being supported to said head frame by spring means which urge said inner cutter against the outer shearing foil, bias the outer shearing foil upwardly beyond the stopper and allow said outer shearing foil to be depressed to a second height which is no higher than said first height, so that when said outer shearing foil is depressed at a given portion by contact with the user's skin, an upper end of said depressed portion of said outer shearing foil is displaceable downwardly beyond said stopper such that said stopper comes into contact with the skin for bearing a depressing force acting on said outer shearing foil;
• said dry shaver including more than one shaving head which is a combination of said outer shearing foil, said inner cutter and said drive element, said shaving heads being arranged in spaced parallel relation within said head frame, said head frame having a rib extending between the outer shearing foils of the adjacent shaving heads so as to define a part of said stopper.
