Patent number: 11576481Abstract: A head for an oral-care implement, having an elongated mounting surface with an outer circumference, includes two outer rows of tufts extending from the mounting surface along the longitudinal axis in proximity to the outer circumference, and two inner rows of tufts extending from the mounting surface and arranged between and parallel to the outer rows. The tufts of the outer rows have a longitudinal extension and an elongated cross-sectional area perpendicular thereto. The elongated cross-sectional area has a longer axis and a shorter axis, wherein the longer axis defines an angle ? of about 20-65 degrees relative to the longitudinal axis. The tufts of the outer rows are inclined relative to the mounting surface by an inclination angle (?) of about 65-80 degrees. The tufts of the inner rows are inclined relative to the mounting surface by an inclination angle (?) of about 60-85 degrees.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2019Date of Patent: February 14, 2023Assignee: The Gillette Company LLCInventor: Uwe Jungnickel

Patent number: 11571828Abstract: A shaving razor handle includes, a main body, a pair of arms extending from the main body, and a pivoting head. The pivoting head includes a base member and a biasing member. The base member is pivotally coupled with the pair of arms to facilitate pivoting of the pivoting head about a pivot axis between a home position and a fully pivoted position. The base member includes a front wall and a rear wall. The front wall includes a front exterior surface. The rear wall includes a rear exterior surface. The biasing member is operably coupled with the main body and is configured to bias the pivoting head into the home position.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2019Date of Patent: February 7, 2023Assignee: The Gillette Company LLCInventors: Robert Harold Johnson, Jack Anthony Washington, Matthew Michael Long, Michael Tejpaul Verasamy, Aiqin Li
