Abstract: A razor includes one or more blades that are directly or indirectly heated by RF energy. A control circuit is connected to and operates a high frequency (HF) generator and a HF power amplifier (HFPA) for generating radio frequency (RF) energy throughout a range of controllable power levels. The generated RF energy is guided by a wave guide from the HFPA to a resonance chamber (i.e., band pass filter cavity). The RF energy is radiated from the resonance chamber towards the one or more blades which absorb the RF energy, thereby causing the temperature of the blades to increase. An energy source provides the electric current required for operating the control circuit, the HF generator and the HFPA. In another embodiment, the RF energy is radiated from the resonance chamber towards a heating element that increases in temperature and heats the blades by thermal conduction.

Abstract: A razor includes one or more blades that are directly or indirectly heated by RF energy. A processing element is connected to a radio frequency (RF) modulator which is coupled with an RF coupling and/or resonance chamber. The resonance chamber is spatially coupled with either the blades of the razor or, alternatively, one or more heating elements that are thermally coupled with the blades for transferring heat energy directly to the blades. An energy source provides the electric current required for operating the processing element and RF modulator. The RF modulator emits RF energy that is directed and amplified by the RF coupling/resonance chamber which warms the blades or heating elements.
