Abstract: A device for removing unwanted hair, including a hair-plucking assembly and a vibrating assembly adjacent the hair-plucking assembly, wherein the device removes hair by uprooting it while vibrating the skin to minimize discomfort.

Abstract: A shower head including a housing, a turbine and a fluid exit body in operative engagement therewith, such that a fluid flow through the turbine causes rotation thereof and periodic motion of the fluid exit body. The fluid exit body is in a tilted position in the housing and the periodic motion consists of a simultaneous rotational travel of the fluid exit body around the axis of the turbine and an oscillatory, rocking movement of the fluid exit body in the housing.

Abstract: Apparatus for treating hair including a handle; hair separation apparatus having a generally elongate base portion associated with the handle, and a plurality of parallel teeth attached to the base apparatus, and extending transversely therefrom, each tooth having a free end; and drive apparatus for oscillating the plurality of teeth at a frequency of no less than about 3,000 cycles per minute and for limiting a stroke of the free end of each the tooth to a length of no greater than approximately 8 mm, and for bringing the plurality of teeth into repeated engagement with a group of hairs attached to skin, thereby to ease passage of the hair separation apparatus through the group of hairs at a level of discomfort tolerable to a user.

Abstract: A parking system for vehicles includes a vehicle support platform adapted to support a vehicle over a parking area and having a rear end portion permitting travel of a vehicle thereacross, a front end portion, and side portions extending longitudinally between the rear and front end portions; and support apparatus for the platform located at a predetermined end portion of the parking area and adapted to engage the platform front end portion only.

Abstract: Apparatus for treating hair including a handle, hair separation apparatus associated with the handle and extending longitudinally along an axis, apparatus for oscillating the hair separation apparatus about the axis so as to bring the hair separation apparatus into repeated engagement with a group of hairs so as to ease passage of the separation apparatus therethrough, and apparatus for preventing the hair separation apparatus from striking a portion of skin to which the hairs are attached. The hair separation apparatus is oscillated about the axis at a relatively high frequency, of, typically, greater than 4,000 cycles per minute and preferably greater than 10,000 cycles per minute, and at a relatively small amplitude, of, typically, no larger than about 5.degree. and, preferably, no larger than 2.degree..
