Shaving Aid Applicator Head With Jetting Holes for Hygienic Use
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional shaving aid containers require users to spray the aid onto their hands or brushes, leading to potential contamination and increased complexity in application, which can cause sanitary issues and inconvenience.
Innovation Solution
A shaving aid application apparatus with a containing portion, a head, and jetting holes that allows direct application of the aid onto the skin, eliminating the need for hand or brush contact and simplifying the application process.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If shaving aid is sprayed onto hand or brush first, then it can be applied to skin, but this increases the risk of contamination and creates sanitary issues
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the application function from the conventional hand/brush intermediary method and integrates it directly into the dispensing device. The device includes a application head with jetting holes that directly contact the skin, eliminating the need for hands or brushes to touch the shaving aid, thus removing the contamination pathway while maintaining ease of application
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a clean intermediary structure - the application head with jetting holes - that transfers the shaving aid directly to the skin without requiring hand or brush contact. This intermediary component remains clean and hygienic while facilitating the application process
2Reliability
If shaving aid is sprayed onto hand or brush first, then applied to skin, then the application steps become more complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the dispensing function and the application function into a single integrated device. The containing portion holds the shaving aid while the application head with jetting holes directly applies it to the skin, combining what were previously separate steps (dispensing to hand/brush, then applying to skin) into one simultaneous action, thereby reducing both time and procedural complexity while maintaining sanitary safety
3Object-affected harmful factors
If conventional container is used, then shaving aid can be dispensed, but it requires additional steps of spraying to hand/brush and then applying to skin
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a multi-functional device where the containing portion serves both as the storage container and the dispensing mechanism, while the application head with jetting holes provides direct application capability. This universal design eliminates the need for separate hand/brush intermediaries, reducing both sanitary risks and process complexity while maintaining effective shaving aid application
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
Provides a cleaner and easier application of shaving aid by expelling it directly onto the skin, reducing the risk of contamination and simplifying the application steps.
Implementation Method 1
The shaving aid is expelled from the containing portion to pass through the spraying gap and provided through the multiple jetting holes
