Abstract: The invention relates to a skin treatment device for removing callus from the skin by an abrasive treatment, comprising a housing with a handle section (110), a skin treatment element (120) rotatable around a rotational axis (101) and a protective rim (130). Said protective rim circumferentially encases said skin treatment element partially over an angular range of more than 120° and less than 330° about said rotational axis such that a circumferential abrasive treatment surface protrudes from the protective rim in an area extending over an angular range of 30° to 240°.

Abstract: A head unit of a depilation appliance comprises at least one pair (11) of hair-clamping elements (12, 13), wherein the hair-clamping elements (12, 13) have tweezer surfaces (14, 15) which are arranged to face each other, and which are movable towards and away from each other in their entirety so as to be movable into and out of contact to each other. In order to achieve improved hair-clamping performance of the at least one pair (11) of hair-clamping elements (12, 13), the tweezer surfaces (14, 15) are further configured to move into alignment with each other in the process of getting into contact to each other, wherein the entirety of the tweezer surface (14) of one (12) of the hair-clamping elements (12, 13) is tillable relative to a support (17) that is included in the respective hair-clamping element (12).

Abstract: A depilating device (1) comprises a depilating body (10) which is rotatable about a rotation axis (R) extending in a longitudinal direction (L) with respect to the depilating body (10) and which is provided with at least one hair-catching space (11). The depilating device (1) further comprises an actuating mechanism (30) configured to act on the depilating body (10) so as to cause compression and extension of the depilating body (10) in the longitudinal direction (L) during rotational movement of the depilating body (10) about the rotation axis (R), for the purpose of varying the size of the hair-catching space (11) of the depilating body (10) in the longitudinal direction (L), wherein the actuating mechanism (30) includes a force-inducing member (31) which is compressible and extensible in the longitudinal direction (L) and which has a function in determining the level of a hair-clamping force in the depilating body (10).

Abstract: An epilating device for extracting hairs out of a user's skin, including hair-clamping elements that are arranged adjacent to each other and rotatable relative to a housing. A drive system rotates the hair-clamping elements which co-operate in pairs and are moveable relative to each other during rotation. On each side surface facing an adjacent hair-clamping element, there is a hair-clamping section and a hair-catching section. The hair-catching sections of adjacent hair-clamping elements define a funnel area, wherein the hair-catching sections converge towards each other for guiding hairs towards the hair-clamping sections. The hair-clamping sections of adjacent hair-clamping elements are movable relative to each other from an open position, where the hair-clamping sections are at a distance from each other, to a closed position, where the hair-clamping sections are in mutual clamping engagement in a hair-clamping area.

Abstract: The invention relates to an epilating device (10) for epilating hairs growing from skin, comprising a housing; an epilating system having a plurality of hair-clamping elements arranged adjacent to each other rotatably on a curved supporting shaft which extends in a plane of curvature; a drive system arranged (58) to rotate the hair-clamping elements; a skin-contacting member (16) arranged to contact the skin during use and to be pivotable relative to the housing about a first pivot axis; a compression member arranged adjacent to the epilating system to exert a compression force on the epilating system directed along a compression line, said compression member being pivotable relative to the housing about a second pivot axis to adjust a position of the compression line relative to the housing; and a linkage mechanism linking the skin-contacting member and the compression member such that a pivotal motion of the skin-contacting member about the first pivot axis over a first pivot angle results in a pivotal moti

Abstract: An epilating device for extracting hairs out of a user's skin, including an epilating system having a plurality of hair-clamping elements arranged adjacent to each other and rotatable relative to a housing about an axis of rotation, a compression member arranged to exert a compression force on the epilating system along at least a compression line which extends parallel to a main direction of extension of the axis of rotation, and a drive system arranged to rotate the hair-clamping elements about the axis of rotation. The hair-clamping elements are arranged to cooperate in pairs. During rotation of the epilating system, the paired hair-clamping elements are tiltable relative to each other, under influence of said compression force about at least one tilting axis from a hair-catching position and about only one tilting axis from a first hair-clamping position.

Abstract: There is disclosed an attachment (22) for a cutting head (100) of a hair cutting device (1). The attachment (22) comprises first and second side portions (24, 26) configured to cover, respectively, first and second sides (112, 114) of a stationary cutting member (115) of the cutting head (100), and an intermediate portion (28) interconnecting the first and second side portions (24, 26) and configured to cover an outer surface (120b) of a first wall portion (120) of the stationary cutting member (115). The first and second side portions (24, 26) are configured to protrude relative to the plurality of primary cutter teeth (118) of the stationary cutting member (115), which define a cutting zone of the cutting head. The first and second side portions (24, 26) and the intermediate portion (28) define a recess exposing the primary cutter teeth (118) of the stationary cutting member (115). The recess is non-interrupted over a distance of at least 50% of the length of the cutting zone.
