Definitions
- the invention relates to an electrical cleaning device for a shaver.
- the invention further relates to an exchangeable cartridge for storing cleaning liquid and a system consisting of a shaving apparatus and an electrical cleaning device.
- Electrical cleaning devices for razors are used to remove hair particles and other dirt adhering to the shaving head area. Such cleaning devices are already known in various functional and design variants.
- FR 2 568 111 A1 discloses a device for cleaning a shaving head of a dry shaving apparatus, which has a cleaning space into which the dry shaving apparatus is inserted for cleaning. The cleaning is carried out by means of an air flow generated by a blower. Hair particles or other particles carried away with the air flow are fed to a filter device.
- a cleaning device for an electric shaver which has a container with a receiving opening for the shaving head area of the shaver.
- a motor-driven conveying device for generating a circulating flow of a cleaning liquid and a device for collecting hair particles and other particles are arranged in the container.
- the shaving head area is flowed through by cleaning liquid and at the same time the shaver connected to the cleaning device is put into operation.
- DE 44 02 238 C2 discloses a cleaning device for the shaving head of a dry shaver.
- the cleaning device has a receiving part for the shaving head of the shaving apparatus and at least one cleaning fluid container.
- the receiving part is arranged above the liquid level of the cleaning liquid and can be supplied with cleaning liquid from the cleaning liquid container via a motor-driven conveying device.
- the receiving part is connected to the cleaning liquid container via an overflow device and / or via at least one outlet opening.
- the invention has for its object to provide an electrical cleaning device for a shaver so that it can be produced with little effort and requires the smallest possible footprint.
- the cleaning device according to the invention for a shaving apparatus has an upper part with a cleaning container for receiving the shaving apparatus in the area of its shaving head and with a conveyor device for a cleaning fluid driven by an electric motor.
- the peculiarity of the cleaning device according to the invention is that the upper part is supported on an exchangeable cartridge for storing the cleaning liquid.
- the device according to the invention has the advantage that it has a replaceable cartridge and is still compact and simple. Because the cartridge is not surrounded by the housing of the cleaning device, on the one hand a complex mechanism for inserting and removing the cartridge can be dispensed with and on the other hand the cleaning device requires a smaller footprint with the same cartridge volume.
- the upper part and the cartridge can be detachably connected to one another by a coupling device.
- the coupling device can be formed by interacting coupling elements on the underside of the upper part and on the top of the cartridge. Coupling elements arranged in this way are not visible from the outside in the coupled state of the upper part and the cartridge and thus do not interfere with the visual impression.
- the coupling device can be designed, for example, as a screw connection that can be manufactured with little effort and is easy to use. It is also possible to design the coupling device as a locking mechanism, so that a cartridge change can be carried out very quickly. To make handling easier while changing the cartridge, the upper part can have feet for parking the upper part when the cartridge is removed.
- the upper part can have an activation device for at least temporarily starting up the shaving apparatus.
- the activation device can in particular be designed as at least one electrical contact.
- the outer shape of the cartridge in the transition area to the upper part is adapted to the outer shape of the upper part in order to enable an optimal connection between the upper part and the cartridge and to achieve a pleasing visual appearance.
- the invention further relates to an exchangeable cartridge for storing a cleaning liquid for an electrical cleaning device for cleaning a shaving apparatus.
- the cartridge according to the invention is characterized in that it is designed as a supporting lower part of the cleaning device.
- At least one coupling element is generally provided to form a detachable mechanical connection with an upper part of the cleaning device.
- the coupling element is preferably formed on the upper side of the cartridge provided for coupling to the upper part of the cleaning device. This enables a simple design of the coupling element, which can be implemented with little effort.
- the coupling element is designed as a centrally arranged thread.
- the coupling element is designed as a component of a locking mechanism.
- a viewing window for reading the fill level of the cleaning liquid can be provided in the cartridge according to the invention.
- This has the advantage that a reliable control of the fill level is possible with very little effort. Since the cartridge according to the invention is generally not covered by housing parts of the cleaning device, there is no parallax error when reading the fill level through the viewing window and no lighting device is required which makes the level of the cleaning liquid visible.
- the shape of the cartridge according to the invention it is advantageous if it tapers towards the top. This ensures a high level of stability.
- the cartridge according to the invention has a circular cross section. This is particularly advantageous if the cartridge according to the invention is to be screwed to the upper part of the cleaning device.
- the invention relates to a system consisting of a razor and the cleaning device according to the invention.
- the shaver has a cleaning function that can be activated by the cleaning device for temporarily starting up the shaver during the cleaning process.
- This has the advantage that the shaving apparatus can be equipped with a cleaning program that is optimal for its design and that the effort for implementing the cleaning program in the cleaning device can be eliminated.
- FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the cleaning device according to the invention with a razor inserted
- FIG. 2 shows the embodiment of FIG. 1 without a razor
- Fig. 3 shows an embodiment of the cleaning device according to the invention with the cartridge removed and
- Fig. 4 shows another embodiment of the cleaning device according to the invention with the cartridge removed.
- Fig. 1 shows an embodiment of the cleaning device 1 according to the invention in a perspective view.
- the cleaning device 1 has an upper part 2 with a receiving opening 3, into which an electric shaver 4 is inserted in the area of its shaving head.
- the components required for the operation of the cleaning device 1 are arranged in the upper part 2. These components, which are not visible from the outside and are therefore not shown in FIG. 1, are, for example, a conveyor device for delivering a cleaning liquid, an electric motor for driving the conveyor, etc.
- a replaceable cartridge 5 which is designed as a bottom part of the cleaning device 1 and the upper part 2 carries.
- the cartridge 5 In addition to its function as a supporting part of the cleaning device 1 is used the cartridge 5 to store the cleaning liquid If the cleaning liquid is used up or heavily contaminated, fresh cleaning liquid is provided by replacing the cartridge 5.
- the outer lateral surfaces of the upper part 2 and the cartridge 5 merge into one another without radial offset, so that the cartridge 5 does not appear optically as a foreign component, but rather forms an integral part of the cleaning device 1.
- the cleaning device 1 tapers from the bottom to the top for the upper part 2 as well as for the cartridge 5. Both the upper part 2 and the cartridge 5 have a circular cross section in wide areas.
- Fig. 2 shows the embodiment of Fig. 1 without the shaver 4, so that the view of a cleaning container 6 is accessible through the receiving opening 3, in which the shaver 4 is immersed during the cleaning process.
- the cleaning container 6 can be filled with cleaning liquid, which is conveyed from the cartridge 5 into the cleaning container 6 with the conveying device.
- electrical contacts 7 are arranged, which bear on corresponding contact points of the shaving apparatus 4 when the latter is immersed in the cleaning container 6.
- An electrical connection 8 is provided on the outside of the upper part 2, via which an operating voltage can be supplied to the upper part 2.
- the upper part 2 can also have a switch (not shown in the figures) for starting the cleaning process if automatic starting of the cleaning process when the electrical contacts 7 are touched by the shaving apparatus 4 is not desired.
- the shaving head of the shaving apparatus 4 can be put into operation during the cleaning process via the electrical contacts 7, so that a relative movement is generated between the components of the shaving head and the cleaning liquid and an intensive cleaning effect can thereby be achieved.
- a cleaning program stored in the shaver 4 for example, can be started via the electrical contacts 7, with which the shaving head is automatically put into operation for one or more time periods. In the cleaning program, a soaking time without shaving head operation is provided between the operating phases.
- the deposit of the cleaning program in the shaver 4 enables a relative simple design of the cleaning device 1.
- a charging current can be supplied to a shaving apparatus 4, which is operated with a rechargeable battery, via the electrical contacts 7.
- the shaving head of the shaving apparatus 4 is flushed with a liquid stream generated by the conveying device during the cleaning process or is immersed in the cleaning liquid, which is static in the cleaning container 6. After the cleaning process, the cleaning liquid, including the contaminants detached from the shaving head, flows back into the cartridge 5, in which the contaminants sediment over time.
- a filter can be provided.
- Fig. 3 shows an embodiment of the cleaning device 1 according to the invention with the cartridge 5 removed in a perspective view.
- the upper part 2 has on its underside in a central position a tubular extension 9 which is provided with an internal thread 10 at least in a partial area adjacent to the underside.
- the cartridge 5 also has a circular opening 11 on its upper side in a central position, the edge of which is provided with an external thread 12.
- the internal thread 10 and the external thread 12 are matched to one another in such a way that the upper part 2 can be screwed onto the cartridge 5 and a releasable mechanical connection between the upper part 2 and the cartridge 5 can thereby be established.
- the tubular extension 9 of the upper part 2 is inserted into the opening 11 of the cartridge 5 to such an extent that the internal thread 10 abuts the external thread 12. Then the upper part 2 and the cartridge 5 are rotated against each other and thereby screwed. Due to the central arrangement of the internal thread 10 and the external thread 12, the underside of the upper part 2 and the upper side of the cartridge 5 are congruent to one another in the screwed state.
- the tubular extension 9 plunges through the opening 11 into the cartridge 5 to such an extent that the cleaning liquid can be conveyed out of the cartridge 5.
- a viewing window 13 is embedded in the outer surface of the cartridge 5, through which the level of the cleaning liquid can be read.
- FIG. 4 shows a further embodiment of the cleaning device 1 according to the invention with the cartridge 5 removed in a perspective view.
- This embodiment differs from the embodiment of FIG. 3, in particular with regard to the design of the coupling mechanism between the upper part 2 and the cartridge 5.
- there is no screw connection but a bayonet connection.
- a latching element 14 is formed on the tubular extension 9 of the upper part 2, which can be snapped into a counterpart 15 arranged in the region of the opening 11 of the cartridge 5.
- the cartridge 5 has a guide opening 16 on its upper side, into which a pin 17 arranged on the underside of the upper part 2 is threaded as part of the snap-in process.
- the guide opening 16 is designed as an elongated hole which is curved in accordance with an arc.
- the upper part 2 in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 4 has three feet 18 which are arranged on the underside of the upper part 2 and on which the upper part 2 removed from the cartridge 5 can be placed. So that the joining of the upper part 2 and the cartridge 5 is not hindered by the feet 18, the cartridge 5 has three additional openings 19 on its upper side, which are shaped similarly to the guide opening 16 and accommodate the feet 18.
