Definitions
- the invention relates to a cleaning device for the shaving head of a shaving apparatus, in particular an electric shaving apparatus, with a housing which has a receiving device for the shaving head and a container for cleaning liquid which is fed to the shaving head.
- the invention also relates to a container for cleaning liquid for a cleaning device for the shaving head of a shaving apparatus.
- Such a cleaning device and containers therefor with cleaning liquid have become known from the "Clean & Charge", Type 5301 from Braun.
- the known device is used to clean the shaving head and to load and store the shaver.
- the dry shaving apparatus is inserted with its shaving head down into a receiving part, which is then filled several times with cleaning fluid.
- the dry shaving apparatus is temporarily put into operation, the cleaning liquid loosens hair residues and deposits adhering to the shaving head and transports them back to the cleaning liquid container from which the cleaning liquid was previously conveyed to the shaving head.
- the dry shaver is electrically connected to the cleaning device.
- a drying process then follows the actual cleaning process.
- the liquid still adhering to the shaving head evaporates. Because of this small amount of evaporation per cleaning process and because of the slowly increasing load of the cleaning liquid with ingested deposits and hair residues during use, the container must be replaced at regular intervals with a new one.
- an electrical level indicator is provided which, after the liquid level in the container has dropped by a certain amount, indicates this to the user by means of a corresponding light signal on a display device which is attached to the housing of the cleaning device.
- a display device which is attached to the housing of the cleaning device.
- electrodes are provided which protrude into the container and are acted upon by the cleaning liquid by a certain amount until the liquid level drops. The light signal is triggered when the electrodes are above the liquid level.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of providing a cleaning device of the type mentioned above which enables reliable monitoring of the liquid level in the container by the user, but which causes a minimal outlay in terms of costs and installation.
- the housing is provided in the area of at least one of the side walls of the container with at least one window for checking the fill level of the container, that the side walls are formed at least in the area of the window from a transparent material, and that the container bottom in contrast has less transparency. Due to the colored container bottom, the cleaning liquid appears in the color of the bottom and there is a sharp contrast on the surface. At the same time, the transparency of the side wall makes it easy to see the container.
- Sight glasses for level inspection are known in principle, but they have the disadvantage that the level is very difficult to read in the case of colorless or slightly colored liquid. Since the container is almost completely closed by the housing of the cleaning device, the liquid level is only very unclear and unclear when viewed from outside in the darkened container. Coloring the cleaning liquid, which would at least make the liquid level more visible, is also not desirable.
- the container itself is advantageously detachably connected to the housing, so that the cleaning liquid can be replaced in a comfortable manner by replacing the old cartridge with a fresh one after consumption.
- a lighting device is provided in the housing. This enormously increases the contrast between the filled and unfilled area of the container. This measure allows the level of the container in the cleaning device to be read very precisely even in a bright outside environment.
- the lighting device can emit white or colored light.
- the lighting device is advantageously designed in such a way that it at least partially protrudes into the container, as a result of which the surface of the cleaning liquid is shown in high contrast with the surroundings.
- the lighting device preferably consists of at least one LED.
- a particularly simple embodiment of the invention in which the location of the lighting device can be chosen relatively freely, is characterized in that the lighting device has a light guide which extends from the lighting device in the direction of or into the container. This means that a lighting device can be implemented even under the most difficult installation conditions and optimally illuminate the free surface of the cleaning liquid in the container.
- a further embodiment of the invention provides that the lighting device at least partially protrudes into the cleaning liquid, as a result of which special optical effects which depend on the depth of penetration can be achieved.
- special optical effects which depend on the depth of penetration can be achieved.
- This representation can be reinforced by the fact that colored light or colored or multicolored light guides ensure that the color representation of the illuminated liquid also changes as the liquid level changes.
- the invention also relates to a container for cleaning liquid for a cleaning device for the shaving head of a razor with a container bottom and associated side walls.
- Such containers are already offered as refill cartridges for the Braun "Clean &Charge" mentioned above.
- the known cartridges contain a colorless cleaning liquid and are made entirely of a blue colored plastic material. Even then, the liquid level of the cleaning liquid contained in the container cannot be read exactly when the cartridge is outside the cleaning device. But even if the colorless cleaning liquid is placed in a container made of completely transparent material, the liquid level is very difficult and inaccurate to recognize.
- the invention is therefore also based on the object of creating such a container for cleaning liquid, in which the liquid level is clear and rich in contrast.
- the end walls are made of transparent material and the container bottom has a lower transparency.
- a preferred embodiment provides that both the side walls and the upper boundary wall of the container are transparent.
- the container advantageously contains an essentially colorless cleaning liquid.
- Fig. 2 shows the view of a container for cleaning liquid
- Fig. 3 shows a section through a container which is inserted into the cleaning device.
- the cleaning device 1 shown in FIG. 1 has a housing 2 in which a trough-shaped receiving device 3 for the shaving head of one of the clearly arranged speed is not provided for the sake of a razor.
- cleaning fluid is supplied to the receiving device when the electric shaver is inserted, so that the shaving parts of the shaving head are located within the cleaning fluid supplied, which is returned to the container with cleaning fluid through corresponding return lines.
- the electric shaver is also set in motion during the cleaning process, for which purpose it is electrically connected to the cleaning device 1 connected to the electrical network.
- the housing 2 has a holding arm 4, at the free end of which electrical contacts 5 are provided which, after correspondingly depressing the actuating button 6, establish or cancel an electrical connection with the shaving apparatus.
- the housing 2 is vertically displaceably mounted on a base plate 7, so that the container for cleaning liquid can be inserted laterally into the housing.
- An unlock button 8 is provided for unlocking the connection between the base plate 7 and the housing 2.
- the housing 2 is provided with a transparent window 9 so that the level of the cleaning liquid in the container can be monitored by the user and, if necessary, the container can be replaced.
- the liquid level 10 can be read very clearly through this window 9, since the side walls of the container are transparent, at least in the area of the window 9, while the bottom of the container is considerably less transparent and is in particular colored blue.
- the container 11 consists of a container base 12, a circumferential side wall 13 and an upper boundary wall 14.
- the side wall 13 and the upper boundary wall 14 are formed in one piece as a trough-shaped component made of transparent material.
- the container bottom 12, on the other hand, is colored with a dye, in particular a blue dye, and is welded along its edge to the peripheral side wall 13, so that a closed container is formed. If this container 11 is filled with colorless cleaning liquid, the liquid appears to the viewer in this color due to the colored container bottom 12 in the color in which the container bottom is colored, in this case in a blue color.
- the current fill level of the container can be seen from the outside through the transparent pension side walls 13 clearly visible and is clear and colored in relation to the environment.
- the container 11 is provided in the region of the upper boundary wall 14 with an outlet opening 15 and a return opening 16.
- a pump device which pumps the cleaning liquid from the container 11 into the receiving device 3, is immersed in the outlet opening 15. From there, the liquid then returns to the container 11 via the return opening 16.
- the cleaning liquid passes through at least one filter device (not shown in the drawing) through which hair dust and other impurities are retained.
- FIG. 3 shows a section through the container 11, which is placed through the return opening 16.
- the lighting device is designed as an LED 18, which is arranged in the housing 2 such that after the container 11 has been locked with cleaning fluid 17, it projects downward into the container 11 by lowering the housing 2.
- the LED is also connected to a voltage source 19, so that the surface of the cleaning liquid 17 is illuminated.
- the liquid level 10 can be read very clearly and with high contrast through the window 9 of the housing 2.
- the LED 18 is arranged within an encapsulation 20 which extends through the return opening 16.
- the encapsulation 20 naturally takes up only a portion of the opening cross-section of the return opening 16, so that the return flow of the cleaning liquid into the container 11 is still ensured.
- the encapsulation 20 is sealed off from the container 11 by the sealing ring 21.
- the encapsulation 20 can also be formed in one piece with a return pipe. Due to the encapsulation of the LED 18, it is also possible to let the lighting device protrude into the cleaning liquid 17 below the liquid level 10, as a result of which special optical effects are set as a function of the level.
- a light guide can also be used, which guides the light of the LED arranged outside the container 11 through an opening in the container 11.
