Abstract: A safety razor handle comprising a handle connecting structure for a cartridge and a handle body wherein the handle body is chunky, and bulbous in two orthogonal directions, widening away from an end surface towards the center of the body; and wherein an outer surface of the handle body comprises a wet grip preparation in the form of a friction-enhancing finish, a friction-enhancing additive or a friction-enhancing surface coating.

Abstract: A connection system for connecting a safety razor handle (50) to a replaceable blade cartridge (10), comprising: a cartridge connecting structure (120) attached to the replaceable blade cartridge (10); and a handle connecting structure (102) attached to the safety razor handle (50) and configured to be brought into engagement with the cartridge connecting structure (120) along a connection axis, wherein the handle connecting structure (102) comprises a lever (112) mounted to a body (103), the lever (112) having a user end (113) to be actuated by a user, a working end (114), and a rotation axis (115) about which the lever (112) is rotatable with respect to the body (103), the rotation axis (115) being situated between the user end (113) and the working end (114), and the working end (114) of the lever (112) is configured to exert a pushing force on the cartridge connecting structure (120) when the lever (112) is rotated by actuation of the user end (113), to eject the cartridge connecting structure (120) from

Abstract: A safety razor shaving system, comprising: a handle; a replaceable razor cartridge; and a base plate comprising an elongate frame surrounding at least one hole, wherein the elongate frame is connected to the handle and provided with engaging elements on either short side portion, the engaging elements of the elongate frame configured to releasably engage complementary engaging elements of the replaceable razor cartridge.

Abstract: A safety razor shaving system comprises: a handle having a handle connecting structure; and a replaceable razor cartridge having a cartridge connecting structure; wherein the handle connecting structure and the cartridge connecting structure are configured to be brought together along a connection axis into a securely connected position; and wherein the handle connecting structure or the cartridge connecting structure has an L-shaped release member including a leg that extends along the connection axis and a foot that extends away from the connection axis, the L-shaped release member configured to release the handle connecting structure and the cartridge connecting structure from the securely connected position in response to a user-applied force to the foot.

Abstract: A safety razor shaving system, comprising: a handle having a handle connecting structure; and a replaceable razor cartridge having a cartridge connecting structure; wherein the handle connecting structure comprises two arms, each arm having a proximal end connected to the handle and a free distal end having a pin extending away from the pin of the other arm; and wherein the cartridge connecting structure comprises two through holes, each through hole configured to accommodate one of the pins and one of two end portions of a resiliently flexible clip, the two end portions of the resiliently flexible clip configured to eject the two pins from the through holes when a user-applied pinching force is applied to opposite sides of the clip.

Abstract: A blade unit and a lubrapad for attachment to a handle of a safety razor, the blade unit comprising: a blade housing and a plurality of blades disposed within the blade housing to expose respective cutting edges suitable for shaving; the blade housing including a guard in front of the cutting edges and a cap to the rear of the cutting edges; and the lubrapad comprising: a lubrapad body comprising solid lubricating material and provided separately from the blade unit, extending along the guard and in front of the guard, the body having a greatest width and/or depth in the blade direction at the guard, the body width and/or depth reducing in a smooth convex curve away from the guard to a curved front portion of the body; wherein the blade unit and lubrapad are arranged to move independently with respect to each other.

Abstract: A safety razor handle comprising: a handle body (50) and a cartridge attachment means (59); wherein the handle body is bulbous in two orthogonal directions, widening away from an end surface (52) towards the centre of the body.

Abstract: A safety razor handle comprising: an underneath surface portion facing the skin of the user in use and comprising an attachment means for attachment to a blade unit; a front surface portion facing in the opposite direction from the shaving direction in use; a rear surface portion facing in the shaving direction in use; a top surface portion and side surface portions, one directed to either side of the blade length in use; wherein the top surface portion, underneath surface portion and side surface portions together form a continuous smooth surface (which is a substantially cylindrical or substantially ellipsoid or substantially partially spherical surface; and wherein: the distance between the front surface portion and rear surface portion is between one third and three times, preferably between a half and twice, the largest dimension of the largest cross section through the continuous smooth surface.

Abstract: A safety razor (100) comprising; a handle body (50) with a substantially flat end surface (52) and a side surface (58); and a cartridge (10) attached to the side surface, wherein: when the flat end surface (52) is in contact with a horizontal plane, the safety razor is in a stable position of rest, the flat end surface forming the safety razor's only region of contact with the plane and elevating the cartridge (10) above the plane.
