Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional detachable floating shavers have limited floating angles and require manual adjustment, which does not adequately address the need for high comfort and efficient shaving, especially on complex facial contours.

Innovation Solution

A detachable floating shaver design featuring a head that can rotate 360° relative to the main housing, utilizing a system of pivot portions and elastic members for enhanced flexibility and ease of use, along with a detachable connection for convenience in cleaning and maintenance.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the floating portion is only the cutting head with a fixed connection between head and handle, then the structure is simple, but the floating angle is limited and requires manual adjustment

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefloating angle rangeVSAvoidstructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The head is divided into multiple independently floating components: the cutting head assembly can float relative to the holder, and the holder can float relative to the handle. This segmentation allows each component to move independently, achieving a larger overall floating angle range without proportionally increasing overall structural complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces dynamic floating mechanisms with elastic members that allow the head and holder to automatically adjust their angles according to the contours of the user's face. This dynamic adaptation eliminates the need for manual adjustment while providing enhanced versatility for different facial shapes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Ease of operation

If the head is fixedly connected to the handle, then the structure is stable, but the contact comfort with complex facial contours is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontact comfortVSAvoidconnection stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs dynamic floating connections between the cutting head and holder, and between the holder and handle, allowing the structure to adaptively change its configuration based on facial contours. The elastic members enable automatic angle adjustment while maintaining stable connection through controlled flexibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The floating mechanism allows the connection parameters (angles, positions) to change dynamically within certain ranges according to the applied forces from different facial contours. This parameter variability enables comfortable contact with complex facial shapes while maintaining stable operation within the designed range.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Productivity

If manual adjustment of handle angle is required, then the structure is simple, but the shaving efficiency and comfort are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveshaving efficiencyVSAvoidoperational convenience
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The floating head mechanism with elastic members enables the shaver to automatically adjust its own angle according to the facial contours during shaving. This self-adjusting capability eliminates the need for manual intervention, thereby improving both shaving efficiency and operational convenience simultaneously.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The dynamic floating connection allows the head to automatically respond to different facial geometries by adjusting its angle in real-time during the shaving process. This automatic adaptation improves productivity by eliminating stops for manual adjustment while maintaining ease of operation through passive, force-driven movement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

A detachable floating shaver includes a head, a casing having a third through hole, a main housing, a first floating member, and a second floating member. Through the connection and positioning relationship between the two parent and child pivot portions, that is, the first floating member and the second floating member, the head can achieve a cross rotation relative to the main housing. The second floating member has a connecting member; through the detachable connection between the second floating member and the connecting member, the head of the shaver is detachably connected, which is convenient for replacement, cleaning and maintenance and is more practical. The shaver can achieve 360° rotation through two parent and child pivot portions and two elastic sleeves, and the effect of floating contact of the shaver with the user's face is good.
