  • Patent number: 5884404
    Abstract: An inner cutter for a shaving head provided with an outer cutter, of a dry shaving apparatus, the inner cutter including several cutter blades in parallel relative alignment which are formed by means of slots cut into an elongate bar essentially transversely to the bar longitudinal extent, with the ends of the slots being of an arcuate configuration and each cutter blade being provided with a wall thickness D diminishing from a vertex SP of an arcuate end of a slot in the direction of a crest line SP of the bar, wherein the reduction of wall thickness D, extending from the vertex SP, covers an area B which is greater than half the relative distance A of two adjacent cutter blades in the area of the crest line SL.
