Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electrically powered hair removal device, the handle-shaped housing of which encloses a motor device for driving a spiral spring seated on a guide wire, which spring has an arcuate hair-engaging part between its ends supported in the housing.
  • Depilatory devices of this type which are referred to as epilators, have been known for many decades and rely on the action of a spiral spring which comprises a plurality of adjacent turns which are arranged so that they rotate in rotation relative to the skin carrying hair to be removed , are drivable, the spiral spring having an arcuate hair engagement part which is set up to form a convex side on which the turns are spread apart, and a corresponding concave side on which the turns are compressed, the rotational movement of the spiral spring a continuous movement tion of the turns from a spread alignment on the convex side to a compressed alignment on the concave side and for engaging with and plucking hair from the skin in question.
  • a disadvantage of all these devices is that, regardless of the arch or loop shape of the spring, only a semi-circular part of the spring as a hair-engaging part at best and the device is therefore only effective in one direction of movement.
  • the object of the present invention is thus to provide an epilator of the aforementioned type, the hair-engaging part of which is effective over a large area and in all directions.
  • the arcuate hair-engaging part of the spiral spring is a helical winding which forms a closed contact surface at least approximately at right angles to the ends of the spring supported in the housing.
  • the inner end of the spring which projects perpendicularly from the helical winding, is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the motor shaft and the outer end of the spring is supported in the housing in a freely rotatable manner.
  • the part of the spring protruding from the housing with its helical winding can be covered by a protective cap that can be plugged onto the housing, and if, in the area of the part of the spring projecting from the housing, one that Working field of the helical winding of the spring illuminating light source is arranged.
  • a handle housing 1 shaped for approximately vertical use, encloses a motor device for driving an epilation spring 2.
  • the motor device here comprises the motor 6, which can be connected to the network or to rechargeable accumulator means or to a battery pack 7 via a switch 8 and via adapter means (not shown).
  • the epilation spring 2 passes between its one, directly or via gear means, not shown, with the motor shaft 5 non-rotatably connected end 21 and its other end 22 supported in the housing 1 according to the invention in a helical winding forming a closed support surface 2 ', which the hair-engaging part of the forms a spiral spring 2 and extends at right angles to the ends 21, 22 of the spring 2.
  • the helical twist preferably has two and a half turns, which, as mentioned, results in a large, optimally effective hair engagement surface.
  • a light source 9 illuminating the working field of the helical winding 2 'of the spring 2 is arranged, which can also be connected via the shadow 8 to the circuit.
