Abstract
A reduced cost interconnection for shaving razor cartridges. A base member is injection molded as a single continuous mass. The base member defines at least one void that may receive a mass increasing member. The base member has a handle portion integrally formed with a living hinge and an interconnection feature. The interconnection feature is biased to detachably engage a counterpart interconnection feature of a blade cartridge. Elastomeric reinforcement in over molded onto the base member to improve the structural integrity of the living hinge.
Claims7
A razor comprising:
- a unitary injection molded base member defining an interconnection member to detachably engage a counterpart interconnection member of a blade cartridge at an engagement point, the base member further defining a void;
- a resilient elastomeric reinforcement overlying and coupled to the base member, the resilient reinforcement supporting the interconnection member proximate to the engagement point to increase the structural stability of the interconnection member of the base member proximate to the engagement point;
- and
- a mass increasing member disposed within the void and retained therein by the elastomeric reinforcement.
