Patent number: 6481103Abstract: The invention relates to an electrically driven shaving apparatus of the type having a reciprocating cutter (6). The cutter is situated in a shaving head (2) which is freely pivotable between two positions. The shaving apparatus also comprises a trimmer (4), which is movable from a non-driven rest position (17) into a driven operating position (18). In this operating position the shaving head (2) is pivoted away into a locking position (19), in which position the cutter (6) is not driven. The advantage is that all the motor power is available for driving the trimmer.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2001Date of Patent: November 19, 2002Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventors: Johannes A.
