Abstract:
A self-powered razor head for shaving hair from a skin surface with at least two reciprocating blades, the razor head comprising:a support case;a roller rotatably supported by the support case, the roller with a first end, a second end, and an annular skin engaging surface for engaging a skin surface;a means for reciprocatably supporting a first razor blade relative to the support case;a means for inducing a reciprocation of the first razor blade in response to a rotation of the roller;a means for reciprocatably supporting a second razor blade relative to the support case; anda means for inducing a reciprocation of the second razor blade in response to the reciprocation of the first razor blade;whereby a movement of the skin engaging surface of the roller over a skin surface will induce a rotation of the roller, the rotation of the roller will induce a reciprocation of the first razor blade, and the reciprocation of the first razor blade will induce a reciprocation of the second razor blade.
