  • Patent number: 9833915
    Abstract: An electrically driven shaver comprises a housing and at least one hair cutting element that is driven by an electromotor. A thermoelectric skin cooling element and the electromotor are electrically operable by a microcontroller and an on/off switch which is electrically connected with the microcontroller. The microcontroller is adapted to activate and deactivate operation of both the electromotor and the skin cooling element. The skin cooling element is located adjacent to the hair cutting element. The microcontroller is adapted to immediately deactivate operation of the electromotor and relative to that to deactivate operation of the skin cooling element at later point of time, both in response to the “off” actuation of the same on/off switch.

  • Patent number: 8082670
    Abstract: A shaving head for an electric shaving apparatus, having an under cutter comprising at least one blade which is drivable in at least one direction of movement relative to an outer cutter. To achieve a good shaving result while at the same time protecting the skin to be best possible effect, it is proposed providing the blade with an outer boundary section which is raised in relation to the cutting edge, faces in the direction of the outer cutter and inclines upwardly from the cutting edge toward the outer cutter.
