Abstract: The invention relates to firearm handles and exhibits a novel type of modification of the handle geometry. Due to the different and diverse size variations of the human hand, adapting the handle geometry to the respective operator is desirable. In known solutions for modifying the handle geometry, attachment parts which differ in size are attached to the handle. By means of this attachment process, the handle geometry can be modified with a range of attachment parts of different sizes. This solution is disadvantageous in that a respective attachment part must be attached for each desired modification of the geometry. In other known solutions, an adjustment device is integrated into the main part of the handle, said adjustment device allowing a modification of the handle geometry. This solution is disadvantageous in that the integrated adjustment device is costly, and a gap is formed between the handle main part and the adjustment part, which can change positions, upon adjusting the adjustment device.

Abstract: An epilating device removes hair from a user by pinching, pulling and releasing the hairs. The epilating device has a tweezer portion having an axis and being mounted to rotate about its axis during use, the tweezer portion defining at least one pinching region at its circumference in which hairs may be grasped by tweezer elements. The tweezer portion is mounted in cantilevered fashion by its first end to an attachment portion of a handle. The cantilever arrangement of the tweezer portion allows better access to the tweezer elements, in particular for epilating in areas that may otherwise be difficult to reach.

Abstract: An epilating device (1) has a housing (2) defining a handle (4) and first and second shoulder portions (6, 8) forming an open jaw (10). A tweezer portion (12) is mounted in the jaw (10) for rotation about its axis such that an opening (20) is formed through the device (1) from a front side (22) of the housing (2) to a rear side (24) of the housing (2), the opening (20) being bounded by the handle (4), the shoulder portions (6,8) and the tweezer portion (12).

Abstract: An epilating device (1) removes hair from a user by pinching, pulling and releasing the hairs. The epilating device (1) has a tweezer portion (20) having an axis and being mounted to rotate about its axis during use, the tweezer portion (20) defining at least one pinching region (18) at its circumference in which hairs may be grasped by tweezer elements(22). A mounting element supports the axis of the tweezer portion such that the tweezer portion can rotate with respect to the mounting element and a spring element (30) is arranged to induce a pinching force in the tweezer elements at the pinching region (18). The pinching force induces pinching of the hairs at the pinching region (18). A bearing element (23) is arranged to transmit the pinching force to the rotating tweezer portion (20) and a drive element is arranged to apply rotational motion to rotate the tweezer portion about its axis with respect to the mounting element.
