Publication number: 20240075641Abstract: A razor cartridge having a housing including a frame with a non-cutting element, a guard and a cap. The non-cutting element has a plurality of open slots defined between a pair of projections disposed next to each other. A first razor blade is positioned between the guard and the non-cutting element and has a blade edge extending toward the guard. The non-cutting element is spaced apart from the first razor blade. A second razor blade is positioned between the non-cutting element and the cap and has a blade edge extending toward the guard. The non-cutting element is spaced apart from the second razor blade. A first rinse-through gap between the first razor blade and the non-cutting element of about 0.05 mm to about 0.5 mm. A second rinse-through gap between the second razor blade and the non-cutting of about 0.05 mm to about 0.6 mm.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 13, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Sean Peter Clarke, Ashok Bakul Patel, Matthew Robert Stone

Publication number: 20240066733Abstract: The invention is directed toward a shaving razor system. The razor system has a handle and a razor cartridge. The handle has at least one skin interconnect member in pivotal relation to a proximal end portion of the handle. The razor cartridge has a housing, at least one blade, and at least one opening which extends through the housing. The razor cartridge is engaged with the skin interconnect member when the skin interconnect member is disposed within the opening securing the razor cartridge to the proximal end portion of the handle. The razor cartridge is in a pivotal relation with the handle, but not with the skin interconnect member. A pivot point of the razor system is desirably disposed near the front blade of the cartridge. Axes of movement in the razor system can be provided by different physical order of connections of razor components.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Inventors: Ashok Bakul Patel, Robert Harold Johnson, Jack Anthony Washington, Michael Hal Bruno

Patent number: 11780105Abstract: A razor handle. The razor handle can have a main body and a pivoting head pivotally coupled with the main body about a first axis of rotation. A severable benefit delivery member can extend from a main body connection on the main body to a pivoting head connection on the pivoting head, the benefit delivery member providing a first biasing torque on the pivoting head to affect an angular deflection about the first axis of rotation of the pivoting head relative to the main body. A spring member can extend from a spring-main-body connection on the main body to a spring-pivoting-head connection on the pivoting head, the spring member applying a second biasing torque to affect an angular deflection about the first axis of rotation of the pivoting head relative to the main body.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2021Date of Patent: October 10, 2023Assignee: The Gillette Company LLCInventors: Ashok Bakul Patel, Steven Francis Quigley, Jin Kyung Kim, Eric Glenn Siegmann, Zachary Oliver Veugen, Regan Marie Fiascone, Steven Michael Bourque, Matthew Frank Murgida
