SAFETY-RAZOR.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. so, 1917.
Application filed February 16, 1917. Serial No. 149,021.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CLYDE H. SErrz, a citizen of the United States, residing at Natoma, in the county of Osborne and State of Kansas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Safety-Razors; and
I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which itappertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to improvements in safety razors.
The object of this invention is the provision of a safety razor, which is provided with an adjustable blade carrying head so that the blade may be adjusted to position its cutting edge at various angles with relatlon to its handle, to which it is pivotally connected.
Another object of this invention is the provision of a safety razor, which is provided with a handle having a blade carrying head pivotally connected thereto, means carried by the handle associated with the head for holding the blade carrying head at various positions with relation to the handle, thus permitting the blade to glide freely over the face and remove the hairs from the face without pulling the same.
A still further object of this invention is the provision of a safety razor of this character, which will be simple, practical, and comparatively inexpensive and one that can be manufactured and sold at a small cost.
With these and other objects in View, the
invention consists of the novel combination and arrangement ofparts hereinafter more fully described and claimed.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a perspective view illustrating my improved razor as made in accordance with this invention,
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the same,
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the spring and locking member,
Fig. 4 is a top plan view of the razor.
Like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawings. I
Referring in detail to the drawing, the numeral 1 designates a hollow cylindrical handle which has one end fully open and beveled as at 2; the beveled end is bifurcated as at 3 to provide spaced arms in v which is located a blade carrying head 4.
The blade carrying head 4 is substantially rectangular in shape and has its lower longitudinal edge provided with teeth 5, which constitute the blade guard. Secured to one face of the head 4 and projecting laterally therefrom is a lug 6, which lug is secured to the face at the head 4 and positions the same at an inclined angle when connected to the handle 1. The arms at the end of the handle 1 are provided with vertically alined openings 7, through which is adapted to extend the vertical pin 8, which pin is adapted to extend through the lug 6 for pivotally securing the head 4 to the beveled ends of the handle 1, as shown in Fig. 2.
The handle member 1 is provided adja cent its bifurcated end with the arcuate slot 9 in which is slidably arranged the notch segment 10, which segment is secured to the face of the head 4, as at 11. The segment 10 has the teeth formed on its outer periphery which teeth may be formed by providing the periphery with a plurality of spaced notches 12, thus permitting the head 4 to be moved at various angles with relation to the handle, thus positioning the head at various inclinations with relatlon to the handle, as shown in Figs. 1 and 4.
The front wall .of the handle 1 is provided with an opening 13, through which is adapted to extend the inverted U-shaped spring member 14. The legs of the U-shaped member 14 are bent laterally in opposite directions as at 16 and one of the legs is cured to the innerside of the handle 1 as at 18. The opposite leg of the spring 14 constitutes a lever having one end reduced to provide a lug 18, which is adapted to engage the teeth or-notches 12 in the periphery of the segment 10 so as to position the blade carrying head at various angles with relation to the handle and hold the blade carrying head in the various adjusted positions.
Secured to the web portion of the inverted U-shaped spring member 14 is a button 19, which facilitates the moving of the spring downwardly for forcing the lug 18 out of engagement with the notches 12 of the segment 10, thus permitting the head to be positioned at various angles with relation to the handle.
The head 4 is adapted to have secured to its outer face a blade 20, which is held thereto in any suitable manner as at 21 and 22.
In assembling the device, the blade is positioned against the outer side of the head 4, the operator places his thumb upon the button 19 forcing the spring downwardly moving the projection 18 out of engagement with the notches 12 of the segment 10 and the handle is moved in the arcof a circle and moved in a longitudinal plane with relation to the blade about the segment 10 so as to position the blade carrying head 4 at various angles with relation to the handle and the pressure is released from the button 1-9, permitting the spring to move upwardly and the projection 18' engaging a notch 12, thus holding the blade head in its various positions with relation to the handle.
What is claimed is: A safety razor comprising a hollow handle, one end of the handle being bifurcated to provide arms, a blade carrying head, a laterally projecting lug on one face of the head, said lug, being pivotally mounted between the arms of. the handle, said handle provided adjacent its ends with an arcuate slot, a notched segment carried by the head and slidably arranged in the slot, a substantially inverted U-s aped spring member arranged through one wall of the handle, in the rear of the segment, the terminals of the arms of said spring member extending laterally in opposite directions, one of said lateral extensions rigidly secured to the handle, the opposite end of the lateral extension terminating into a lug for engagement with the teeth of the segment for holding the blade carrying head at various angled positions with relation to the handle.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
