Abstract: A hair cutting appliance includes a receiving receptacle for receiving a connector plug to detachably connect a cutting unit to a housing of the hair cutting appliance. The receiving receptacle includes a receiving socket having a receiving recess adapted to receive an engagement element of the connector plug, and a biasing unit arranged in the receiving socket underneath the receiving recess. The biasing unit includes first and second biasing elements laterally spaced with respect to each other and arranged to receive the engagement element of the connector plug. The first biasing element includes a retaining contact portion configured to define the receiving position of the engagement element in an insertion direction (Z). The second biasing element includes an alignment contact portion configured to define the receiving position of the engagement element in a longitudinal direction (X) and in a lateral direction (Y).
