Title:
遅延素子を有する脱毛素子をもつ脱毛装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4514384
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The invention relates to an epilating device which comprises a housing (1) with an opening (5), after which a rotatable drive shaft (7) is arranged extending parallel to said opening and carrying a series of cooperating pinching elements (9) coupled to the drive shaft in a rotational direction (R). During rotation of the drive shaft, pairs of adjacent pinching elements are periodically pivoted with respect to each other, under the influence of a compression member (81), from a catching position, in which a distance is present between the pinching elements near the opening, into a pinching position, in which the pinching elements contact each other near said opening. At least one of the pinching elements of each pair comprises a delaying element (49, 65) for delaying or postponing a pivotal motion of the pinching elements towards the pinching position.According to the invention, the delaying element comprises at least a first and a second contact position (141, 143) for the pair of cooperating pinching elements, said contact positions defining a pivot axis (53) about which the two pinching elements are pivotable with respect to each other. The pivot axis is arranged at a distance from a central point (45) of the pinching elements and between said central point and a pinching surface (57, 71) of the pinching elements. In this manner, a relatively strong delaying effect of the delaying element is achieved, which results in a good synchronization of the pivotal movements of the pairs of pinching elements, which are in the pinching position at the same moment.In a preferred embodiment, the delaying element comprises a substantially flat contact surface (49, 65), an edge (53, 69) of said contact surface defining the pivot axis for the pivotal motion into the pinching position.
