Patent number: 8657797Abstract: The invention relates to a hair removal device (1) having a hair removal unit (30) and a skin cooling unit (10), wherein the skin cooling unit (10) has a skin contact surface (11), and the skin cooling unit (10) is equipped to apply an application substance (80) onto the skin by way of the skin contact surface (11) during use of the hair removal device. In addition to the cooling of the skin by means of contact cooling, a further cooling effect may also be achieved in such a hair removal device in that an application substance is applied, which contributes to the cooling of the skin, for example, by means of evaporation. The hair removal device may comprise a removable attachment, which also comprises at least the skin.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2010Date of Patent: February 25, 2014Assignee: Braun GmbHInventors: Robert Jung, Uwe Bielfeldt, Thomas Schamberg

Patent number: 5137168Abstract: The jug (1) serving to store hot beverages, in particular coffee or tea, is furnished on the brim (4) on its top side (3) with a spout (8) which, together with the top side (3) of the jug (1), can be covered by a lid (9). In the horizontal position of the jug (1), the top side (3) is covered in the area of the spout (8) by a flap (15) movable around an axis of rotation (27). When the jug (1) is tilted out of its horizontal position to assume its pouring position, said flap (15) is lifted from the spout (8) in consequence of the force of gravity and/or by forces exerted by the beverage itself.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 1991Date of Patent: August 11, 1992Assignee: Braun AktiengesellschaftInventors: Georg Mothrath, Thomas Schamberg
