Definitions

  • the invention relates to a system according to the preamble of claim 1 and a dry shaver according to the preamble of claim. 7
  • Such systems can be designed for diverse applications; For example, electric hair clippers, electric toothbrushes, or household electrical appliances may be used as small electrical appliances with an attachment for purposes of charging, cleaning, and / or diagnosis.
  • a cleaning and loading device for a dry shaver known. This serves to clean the shaving head as well as the electrical charge of the electric storage cells arranged in the dry shaver.
  • the dry shaver with its shaving head is inserted into a receiving part, which is then filled with a cleaning liquid.
  • the cleaning liquid dissolves hair residues and adhering to the shaving head coverings, which are then returned together with the cleaning liquid to a liquid container.
  • the dry shaver is also temporarily put into operation to increase the cleaning effect. He is electrically connected to this with the cleaning device. Through this connection not only electrical energy is transmitted to the operation and possibly charging of the electric storage cells, but it can also be exchanged information and control signals between the two devices.
  • the contacting of the dry shaver with the cleaning device takes place in the known system via the device socket of the dry shaver, which are connected to the electrical connections in the cleaning device.
  • the device socket is arranged on the shaving head opposite end of the housing of the dry shaver; It also serves to connect a power cord.
  • the electrical connections of the cleaning device are arranged in the upper end of a contact dome, where they are movable by means of a button in the direction of the device socket of the dry shaver. With its contacting the electrical connections of latching hooks are held in this position; the dry shaver is then electrically connected to the cleaning device and mechanically locked.
  • the structure of the cleaning device or the contact dome is very complex and expensive to manufacture and assembly. In addition, it may be due to positional deviations or manufacturing tolerances come to plugging or clamping problems during contacting. This complicates an exact smooth and thus comfortable docking of the dry shaver to the cleaning device with secure electrical contact.
  • small electrical appliances with a separate charging station have the disadvantage that they do not allow mains operation, so that when a discharged battery so long to dispense with the use until the charging process is completed.
  • Another disadvantage is that on longer trips always the most bulky and heavy charger must be carried to ensure the operation or the electrical power supply of the small appliance.
  • the invention is therefore an object of the invention to improve a system described above such that it can be produced on the one hand with significantly reduced effort, and on the other hand allows an extremely simple and comfortable use.
  • a use of the small electrical appliance should also be possible regardless of the attachment.
  • the additional electrical coupling means is arranged locally separate from the first coupling means, so that one of the two coupling means can be optimally positioned for docking to the attachment and the other coupling means for the best possible use of the electrical device in the network operation.
  • a particularly comfortable, safe and user-friendly way of docking can be realized when positioning the small electrical appliance in the receiving device the accessory is an automatic electrical or electromagnetic contact.
  • the additional coupling means is an electrical plug connection, in particular a device socket.
  • the first electrical coupling means may be formed as electrical contact elements, which means a very low construction costs. In order to realize a comfortable and secure contact, it is advantageous if the electrical contact elements of at least one of the two devices are resilient.
  • the first coupling means may also be designed as inductive energy and / or signal transmission means.
  • a preferred field of application of the invention consists in an embodiment of the electrical appliance as a dry shaver with a shaving head and the attachment as a cleaning and / or charger for cleaning the shaving head or for charging the energy storage cell of the dry shaver.
  • a dry shaver used in such a system is designed such that its first coupling means is arranged near or directly in the region of the shaving head and the additional coupling means at the shaving head opposite end of the housing of the dry shaver ,
  • the drawing shows a dry shaver 1 with a shaving head 2, the head-down - ie with the shaving head down - is inserted into the receiving device 3 of the cleaning and charging device 4.
  • the shaving head 2 can be cleaned in a conventional manner by means of a cleaning liquid.
  • the cleaning and charging device 4 comprises a liquid container and corresponding means for the liquid transport. These means and the associated drives and their electrical supply are not shown for clarity. A possibly provided device for drying the shaving head is not shown in the drawing.
  • the cleaning and charging device 4 also serves to charge the electric storage cells of the dry shaver 1, if it is a battery powered device. Another function of the cleaning and charging device 4 is the storage of the dry shaver 1, so he also serves as a device holder, which can be optionally attached to a wall.
  • the receiving device 3 is formed trough-shaped, wherein the rear wall 5 is slightly higher than the front wall 6.
  • the rear wall 5 also serves the system of darg Congressen in the side view dry shaver 1.
  • the cleaning and charging device 4 has a designed as a power outlet electrical outlet 7, via which it can be supplied with electrical voltage from the mains.
  • the electrical contact between the dry shaver 1 and the cleaning and charging device 4 via two contact buttons 8, which are arranged in the rear wall 5 of the cleaning and charging device 4 and two corresponding contact elements 9, in one of the broad sides, ie the front - or back, the dry shaver 1 are integrated. Both the contact buttons 8 and the contact elements 9 are executed crowned.
  • the contact buttons 8 are resiliently biased in the wall by means of the compression spring 10 in the direction of the dry shaver 1 and thus resiliently mounted.
  • Each contact button 8 has a circumferential collar 11, which secures it against falling out. If no dry shaver, the receiving direction 3 is used, this collar 11 is loaded by the compression spring 10 on the wall 5 at.
  • Control signals and information between the dry shaving apparatus and the cleaning and charging device are transmitted via this electrical contact point, for example information about the type of device, the state of soiling and the frequency and duration of use as well as signals for controlling the cleaning process can be transmitted.
  • the electrical contact also serves to transfer energy for charging electrical storage cells, which are integrated in the dry shaver 1, provided that it is intended for battery operation.
  • the dry shaving 1 can be very simple and comfortable in the cleaning and charging device 4.
  • the cleaning and charging device can therefore be formed in a very compact design.
  • the electrical contacting takes place automatically after the storage in the receiving device 3 and the leaning of the dry shaver 1 to the rear wall. 5
  • the dry shaver 1 In order independent of the cleaning and charging device 3 the dry shaver 1 operate (for example, if it is a pure power supply) or to be able to load, the dry shaver is provided at its the shaving head 2 opposite end 12 with a device socket 13 through which he can be electrically contacted with a power cord.
  • this device socket 13 corresponds to the electrical connection 7 of the cleaning and charging device 4, so that one and the same power cord can be used both for the operation of the cleaning and charging device 4, as well as for the operation of the dry shaver 1 itself.
