Patent number: 5492038Abstract: A shaving system of the wet shave type includes support structure and blade structure secured to the support structure. The blade structure has an aperture with an annular sharpened shaving edge that is defined by main facet portions that converge at an angle of less than 40.degree., and supplemental facet portions that are extensions of the main facet portions and converge at an included angle of less than 60.degree. to define an annular ultimate tip portion. The annular ultimate tip of the sharpened edge defines a shaving plane and the bisector of the included angle defined by the supplemental facets is disposed at an angle (shaving angle) in the range of 15.degree.-35.degree. to the shaving plane.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 1995Date of Patent: February 20, 1996Assignee: The Gillette CompanyInventors: Henryk J. Chylinski, Chester F. Jacobson, Timothy M. Salisbury, Frederick R. Borden

Patent number: 5092042Abstract: A shaving system includes body structure with guide structure and blade structure carried by the body structure. The blade structure has a cutting edge extending along the length of the body structure. A movable guard member of sheet material is carried by the body structure forwardly of the cutting edge of the blade structure and has a vertically extending rear wall portion, a sloped surface portion that extends forwardly in cantilever relation from the rear wall portion and that includes skin-tensioning surface structure, and integral guide portions disposed in the guide structure. The movable guard member is biased for dynamic movement as guided by the guide structure in the course of a shaving stroke.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 1990Date of Patent: March 3, 1992Assignee: The Gillette CompanyInventors: Gary R. Miller, Chester F. Jacobson

Patent number: 5063667Abstract: A shaving system of the wet shave type includes body structure with guard surface structure at a front portion thereof and opposed portions forming a gap at a rear portion thereof. Blade structure is carried by the body structure rearwardly of the guard surface structure and forwardly of the gap and has a cutting edge extending along the length of the body structure. A shaving aid member is carried on the support structure behind the blade structure, the shaving aid member having a dispensing head portion with a skin-engaging surface, a narrow neck region within the gap, and a retaining portion on the side of the narrow neck region opposite the head portion. The retaining portion has a larger dimension than the width of the gap, and the dispensing head portion is at least twice in cross-sectional area as large as the retaining portion.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 1990Date of Patent: November 12, 1991Assignee: The Gillette CompanyInventor: Chester F. Jacobson

Patent number: 5056222Abstract: A shaving system of the wet shave type includes body structure with blade structure that has a cutting edge. A housing assembly carried by the body structure adjacent the blade structure includes surface structure disposed for skin-engagement adjacent of the cutting edge, structure that defines an elongated apertured chamber extending generally parallel to the cutting edge of the blade structure, and a member of shaving aid material disposed in the housing chamber. The housing assembly also includes guide portions disposed in cooperating relation with guide structure of the body structure for dynamic guided movement of the housing assembly against the biasing structure during shaving. The housing structure apertures communicate with the shaving aid material in the chamber structure and enable shaving aid material to be released and applied through the apertures to the shaver's skin surface during the course of shaving.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 1990Date of Patent: October 15, 1991Assignee: The Gillette CompanyInventors: Gary R. Miller, Chester F. Jacobson, Robert A. Trotta

Patent number: 4742909Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a plurality of individual protective safety razor head unit open top casings and a tray for storing the plurality of casings in side-by-side relationships. Each of the casings are adapted to retain a single safety razor cartridge unit therein, each of which have at least one blade and a head cartridge member to which the blade is permanently secured and which also provides a guard surface. The head unit is detachably engageable with a safety razor handle. Each casing defines a single chamber in which a single shaving head unit is retained. The structure in each casing retains the head unit therein against accidental removal in such a manner that the cutting edge of the blade is protected against damage and wherein the head unit is engageable by the handle while the head unit is still within the casing. Each head unit when engaged with the handle is withdrawable from its casing by means of rocking the handle.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 1987Date of Patent: May 10, 1988Inventors: Domenic V. Apprille, Jr., Michael J. Gray, Chester F. Jacobson, Ronald P. Weston
