Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cleaning device for the shaving head of a dry shaving apparatus according to the features of the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • a cleaning device for electrically operated dry shavers is already known from EP 0 664 973 B1.
  • the dry shaver is held during a cleaning process at its one shear head end in the receiving part and at its opposite bottom end by a locking device in the longitudinal direction immovably in the cleaning device. Removal of the dry shaving apparatus is only possible when the locking device is released and the engaging in the bottom end of the shaver housing electrical contact elements are moved out of the housing.
  • To dry the shaving head here is a driven by an electric motor blower whose air flow blows over the shaving head mounted in the receiving part and thus dries this both from the outside and from the inside.
  • a cleaning device of the type described above in which the metal parts in the shaving head, ie in particular the shaving foil and the lower blade are heated with an inductive heating device.
  • the heated metal parts can already heat the cleaning liquid during a cleaning process and on the other hand, they can lead to a quick drying of the shaving head after the cleaning process.
  • a disinfection without the evaporation of cleaning liquid can be achieved even with a corresponding increase in temperature of the metal parts.
  • the dry shaver can be removed after releasing the locking device, although the shaving head and thus the shaving foil are still too hot. The result may be burns on the skin of an operator in a direct subsequent shaving operation.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a cleaning device with which too early removal of the dry shaver from the cleaning device is avoided.
  • the cleaning device should be simple and inexpensive to build.
  • a control element which is dependent on the temperature of the shaving head, is formed in the cleaning device, which controls the locking device in a temperature-dependent manner.
  • the control element can act on the one hand directly to the control of the locking device, but it can also act on the other hand mechanically, electrically or even hydraulically on the locking device.
  • a temperature-sensitive element is proposed as the control, which is exposed to the heat of the heater.
  • the temperature-sensitive element is designed and arranged so far away from the heater that a blocking of the locking device takes place as long as the temperature at the shaving head and thus on the shaving foil for contact with the skin is too high.
  • an inductive heating has proven to be particularly advantageous because it is located below the receiving part and penetrate their magnetic fields through the receiving part and through the cleaning liquid located in the receiving part and so reach the metal parts in the shaving head and heat them. In this way, the winding of the heater is protected by liquid and is thus extremely durable.
  • a metallic spring according to the features of claim 3, which consists of a memory metal.
  • the spring can be either a leaf spring, coil spring or an otherwise bent sheet metal element that expands appreciably at temperature, or bends. With such a temperature-sensitive element, its expansion force can be transferred particularly easily to a blocking element when heated, and thus a corresponding expansion, so that it is designed to block the shaver in a recess formed on the dry shaver, undercut. Lead or otherwise engage in an intervention. A removal of the dry shaver by hand is then no longer possible.
  • the features of claim 4 are provided.
  • the temperature-sensitive one expands due to the heat radiation and / or the heat conduction - the latter, however, only if there is contact between the blocking element and the heating device - and / or the heat produced by induced eddy currents in metal parts Element and moves the locking element into a recess, projection or undercut of the dry shaver.
  • a spring is biased during the displacement of the locking element, wherein the spring force is smaller than the force resulting from expansion of the temperature-sensitive element.
  • the temperature-sensitive element contracts again or its strength decreases again.
  • the spring can now be effective by moving the blocking element out of the recess, projection or undercut.
  • the blocking element releases the dry shaver again for its removal.
  • an automatic locking device the unobtrusive an operator locks the shaver in the cleaning device when too high a temperature at the shaving head is present and this releases again when the temperature at the shaving head has dropped sufficiently far, preferably below 40 degrees Celsius ,
  • the control is preceded by a manually operable actuating element, passes through the locking element by the force of a hand of an operator in its locking position when switching on the cleaning device.
  • the electric control device of the cleaning device is switched on and a cleaning process is started.
  • a vertical movement is deflected onto the actuating element in a horizontal movement on the blocking element, which is carried out by appropriately arranged guide rails and a ramp and, the latter interacts slidably with a pin formed on the actuating element.
  • any other deflection mechanism can be used with other transmission angles between the actuator and the locking element.
  • a mechanical switching device is selected between the housing and the actuating element, which operates similar to a commonly used on ball-point pens and well-known switch-on or off.
  • a Herzkurve- / slider assembly is used, which snaps on actuation of the actuator in the switch-on after a predetermined distance traveled and subsequent release and moves to release at repeated actuation in the direction of actuation and again release the actuator back to its original position.
  • Such on and off mechanics is particularly functional simple and inexpensive to produce. This type of actuation can still be exploited to the effect that not only the electrical switch of the cleaning device is switched on or off, but it is thus simultaneously created a free space for movement of the temperature-sensitive element, so that it can initially expand freely under the influence of temperature.
  • a further solution according to the invention of the control results from the features of claim 7, wherein in this case a time-dependent element is selected as a control that moves the locking element from its blocking position to its initial position after completion of a cleaning operation time-dependent. Only then can the dry shaver be removed from the receptacle.
  • the cooling time after completion of a cleaning process is chosen so long that the temperature at the shaving head falls below a certain value in order not to suffer burns in a subsequent contact of the foil with the skin of an operator.
  • a time-dependent element electronic or mechanical timers can be selected.
  • a mechanical timer In a mechanical timer, this can preferably be turned on already when switching on a cleaning process, and this is because you know exactly how long a cleaning process lasts. Therefore, you can enter this time plus a cooling time in the timer as a fixed time. The dry shaver is then always released only when the temperature at the shaving head is sufficiently low. If, in the other case, an electronic timer is selected, preferably an electrically operable control element must also be selected which is electronically locked or unlocked by the control signal on the timer.
  • an electrical temperature sensor has proved to be advantageous according to the features of claim 8, which may also be arranged in the vicinity of the heater.
  • the electrical temperature sensor can directly tap the surface of the shaving head, as this is usually formed protected water and its electrical signals are fed via lines of a control circuit, which in turn according to the temperature Locking element via electrically mechanical means, such as an electric magnetic switch, releases or locks.
  • the electrically operated cleaning device 1 consists of a receiving part 2, which has a cup-shaped receiving space 3 for receiving a shaving head 6 and a cleaning liquid (not shown).
  • the receiving space 3 is open in the drawing above the opening 4.
  • the shaving head 6 of a dry shaving apparatus 7 extends to the bottom 5 via the opening 4.
  • the shaving head 6 is preferably provided with two lower knives 8 and one long-hair cutter 9 formed between the lower knives 8.
  • the lower blades 8 are covered by a foil 10 (located behind the contour) towards the outside and form the Kurzhaarschneider.
  • the shaving head 6 is pivotally mounted on the housing 11 (shown only partially) of the dry shaver 7. In the housing 11, the drive means, the electronic switching device, the batteries and other components are stored, which are not shown in the drawing.
  • the Braun Synchro dry shavers which have been sold by the applicant for many years, and which are also offered with a cleaning device.
  • a iron core 12 umwikkelte coil 13 shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 which, if it is traversed by current, generates a magnetic field for heating the metal parts 8, 9, 10 and the entire shaving head 6 and the temporarily in the receiving space 3 during a cleaning process cleaning liquid (not shown) is used.
  • the iron core 12 and the coil 13 form the heating device 56 of the cleaning device 1.
  • a control 14 is formed, which here preferably consists of a spiral spring made of memory metal.
  • the control element 14 is formed in FIGS. 1 to 4 by a temperature-sensitive element, which is penetrated by a bolt 15.
  • the bolt 15 extends over a step 16 and the upper extended portion 19 thus formed is fixedly connected to a housing part 20 of the cleaning device 1.
  • the temperature-sensitive element 14 is supported by its other End at an end face 21 of an arm 17 of a one-piece associated actuator 18 from.
  • the bolt 15 penetrates a bore 22 formed in the arm 17.
  • the arm 17 has been broken to better illustrate the bore 22.
  • the bolt 15 penetrates the bore 22 and protrudes downwards over the arm 17 and is also fixedly attached at its other end to a housing-fixed component 23 of the cleaning device 1. In this way, the actuating element 18 is guided in the longitudinal direction of the vertical axis 24 of the bolt 15 in the lower region.
  • the temperature-sensitive element 14 is thus clamped between the step 16 and the end face 21.
  • the actuating element 18 is formed substantially rectangular as a flat plastic injection-molded part, which is guided in lateral housing-fixed guides 28 parallel to the vertical axis 24 up and down. At the upper free end, a shoulder 29 is formed on the actuating element 18, which forms the actuating button.
  • a heart-shaped recess 31 is arranged on the front surface 30 of the actuating element 18, in the lower region of which a slot 32 connects downwards in the middle.
  • a rib 33 In the middle of the recess 31 extends slightly inclined from left to right, a rib 33.
  • On a further housing part 34 is guided in a groove 35 a horizontally displaceable gate on which a pin 36 is fixed, which together with the recess 31 a two Positions engaging mechanical switch 55 forms.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 Attached to the actuator 18, a pin 37 which engages in a ramp 38 extending from bottom to top right.
  • the ramp is part of a locking element 39, which is formed substantially rectangular and having at its right lower end a recess 40 which engages the left lower edge 41 of the shaving head 6 from above in Fig. 2 in the blocking position of the dry shaver 7.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 At the left lower end of the actuating element 18 is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a slope 42 is formed, which faces a bent sheet metal tongue 43, which is fixed to the housing Stop 44 is fixed in place. At the same level below another metal tongue 45 is attached to a housing-fixed stop 46.
  • the two sheet metal tongues are shown in Fig. 1 at a small distance from each other and are brought together in displacement of the actuating element 18 in the operating direction X by the slope 42 and thus contacted with each other.
  • a cup-shaped receptacle 57 with a cylindrical recess 47, in which the temperature-sensitive element 14 is located.
  • the recess 47 is open via the opening 48, so that the blocking element can emerge from the opening 48.
  • the formed on the locking element 39 stage 49 forms the stop for the one end of the temperature-sensitive element 14.
  • the temperature-sensitive element 14 is supported on a formed on the bottom 52 of the receptacle 57 end face 16 from.
  • the bottom 52 has a central bore 50 concentric with the temperature sensitive element 14.
  • the bolt 15 connected to the blocking element penetrates the bottom 52 via the bore 50 and ends at an extended stop 51.
  • the compression spring 26 is supported on the receptacle 57 between the stop 51 and the base 52 from the outside.
  • the operation of the cleaning device 1 according to the invention according to FIGS. 1 and 2 is the following:
  • the operation button 29 in the X direction down.
  • the actuator 18 moves in the vertical guide 28 down, the locking pin 36 slides along the bottom 58 of the rib 33 and passes up into the upper portion of the recess 31 and there on the upper wall 53 to the left in the groove 35 is moved.
  • the heating device 56 As soon as the heating device 56 is supplied with power, a magnetic field is generated on the coil 13 and iron core 12 which is used to heat the metallic parts lying near the heating device 56, ie the shearing foil 10 and the metal parts formed inside the shaving head 6 and the temperature-sensitive element 14 and the bolt 15 leads. In this case, the temperature-sensitive element 14 expands until its upper free end abuts the step 16. A further expansion of the temperature-sensitive element 14 causes a bias in him, since a further length expansion is not possible because the spring 26 has previously run on block. This position is now held as long as the cleaning device 1 remains switched on.
  • the operation is similar to that in FIGS. 1 and 2, so that only the differences will be discussed here.
  • the decisive difference with respect to the embodiment of Fig. 1 is that the blocking element 39 is controlled solely by the temperature-sensitive element 14 and the spring 26, i. at too high a temperature at the shaving head 6, the temperature-sensitive element 14 is extended as shown in FIG. 4 and moves the locking element 39 against the force of the spring 26 outwardly out of the recess 47, that here, too, engages the edge 41 of the shaving head 6 from above , Removal of the dry shaver 7 from the receiving part 2 is thus prevented.
  • the heating device 56 cools down after a cleaning process, the temperature-sensitive element 14 also cools down and retracts again into the position shown in FIG. 3. Now, the force of the spring 26 unfold their effect and presses on the stop member 51, the bolt 15 together with the locking element 39 in the recess 47 back so that the edge 41 of the shaving head 6 is released and the dry shaver 7 from the receiving part 2 and thus the cleaning device 1 can be removed.
  • the shaving foil 10 has reached a temperature which, upon immediate contact with the skin, causes no more burns on the skin.
