Abstract:
A dual-helicoids rotary hair-plucker head depilatory device for removing human body hair comprising in combination:a manually-grippable housing; dual-helicoids rotary hair-plucker head means protruding from said housing comprising two helicoids set conforming continuous tweezers, said helicoids mounted in central rototable shaft in interleaved fashion and opposition so as to be parallel to one another, with arranged helicoidal spaces as to define hair trap gaps inbetween and said helicoids set identified in accordance to the partially independent function accomplished as rotary-helicoid set the one that only rotates and roto-reciprocating-helicoid set the other one that rotates together and reciprocates in opposition to said first helicoid set, both perpendicular to said central rototable shaft within said housing and said shaft substantially parallel to an area of skin from which hair is to be removed; a reciprocating converter means that transforms motor rotation into straight reciprocation trip for opening and closing said hair trap gaps and means for regulating the length of said trip supplied to the roto-reciprocating-helicoid set; a micro-motor disposed in said housing and being arranged to rotate said rotary hair plucker head means and supplies motion to said reciprocating converter.
