Description

SPECIFICATION Shaving accessory This invention relates to a shaving accessory. It is a common experience of men using wet shavers that there is nowhere convenient in a typical bathroom for storing a razor and a razor blade cartridge. Accordingly, these items tend to be left on a shelf or on a wash-basin or on some other surface, which is unsightly. The object of the present invention is to provide a convenient storage location for the above mentioned articles.

According to the present invention there is provided a holder adapted to be secured to a wall or other surface and provided with means for receiving a razor and means for receiving a razor blade cartridge.

An embodiment of the invention is shown in the accompanying drawings, in which, Fig. 1 is a front view; and Fig. 2 is a side view, with a razor and razor blade cartridge indicated in broken lines.

The embodiment shown in the drawings consists of a holder provided with an adhesive pad 1 which can be adhesively secured to a wall or other surface. If desired, other fixing devices could be used in place of the adhesive pad, for example screws passing through appropriate apertures in the holder, or a fixing plate secured to the holder and adapted to be removably mounted on a mating plate which is itself fixed to the wall or other surface.

A razor blade cartridge 2 is received in a pocket defined by a back wall 3, a middle wall 4, and side walls 5. A razor 6 is suspended from an aperture 7 defined in a front wall 8. The head of the razor is received behind front wall 8 and is shielded from view by side walls 9.

The holder may be made of any suitable material, for example it may be moulded from a plastic material.
