Abstract: Provided is an information updating apparatus that suppresses performance deterioration due to switching between writable recording areas in which information elements are to be written and readable recording areas from which the information elements are to be read. Also, the information updating apparatus updates a plurality of information elements recorded in a non-volatile recording medium with robustness against power discontinuity ensured. In order to achieve such effects, two groups of recording areas that are identical in number are allocated in the recording medium. The information elements are written in either group of the recording areas indicated by judgment information as the writable recording areas. Each time all the information elements have been written, the judgment information is updated. Th us, the writable recording areas are switched between the two groups of the recording areas.

Abstract: A nose hair trimmer that can be washed with a washing liquid without removing a blade unit from the trimmer. The nose hair trimmer, which improves washability, includes a main body case (15) including an interior cavity (X), which accommodates a rotational inner blade body (23) and collects nose hair clippings, and a disposal port (15e), which communicates the cavity with the exterior. The rotational inner blade body includes an inner blade base (25) supporting inner blades and having two holding pieces (25a) functioning as vanes. Rotation of the rotational inner blade body rotates the holding pieces and produces a flow of washing liquid directed from slits (21a) in an outer blade (21) via the interior cavity and toward the disposal port. A guide wall (15f) facing toward the flow of liquid efficiently discharges liquid arcuately flowing around the interior cavity together with nose hair clippings from the disposal port (15e) and washes the interior cavity.
