    Abstract: A nostril hair trimmer in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention can include a cutter blade comprising a first and second cutter portion with an angle configured in between. The first and second cutter portions are connected to each other by a third cutter portion. A slotted shear plane enclosing the cutter blade allows nostril hairs protruding in different directions to be captured in slots and trimmed short by the cutter blade while protecting nostril membrane. The cutter blade can be arranged such that the cutter blade is rotatable in the slotted shear plane and in constant contact with the inner surface of the slotted shear plane, at least in the region of the slots.

  • Patent number: 6332704
    Abstract: Shaker for liquids, especially dairy products such as half-and-half cream and milk. In known shakers cocktails are mixed by pouring different liquids into a bowl which has then inserted thereinto a bowl-shaped sifter filled with solids such as ice, lemon slices or cocoa. Although the ingredients of the cocktail are finely mixed with one another without lumping by shaking said shaker along its longitudinal axis, it is not possible to foam the liquids. The novel shaker makes it possible to foam liquid foodstuffs, especially milk, by simply shaking the same. The shaker is designed for foaming purposes in that a separation sifter is arranged in a direction substantially transverse to the vertical axis of the shaker so that the total volume of the closed bowl is subdivided by the separation sifter in a ratio of 2:1. The shaker is particularly suited for preparing cappuccino cream.
