Abstract (en)

[origin: US4621423A] A vibratory dry-shaver comprises a shear foil having two longitudinal edges, and respective means to clamp the two longitudinal edges in place to cause the shear foil to assume a natural curvature, the tangents to such curvature at the two clamping means forming an acute angle with each other. A cutter is reciprocatingly movable along and adjacent to the shear foil, the cutting edge of the cutter having a curvature corresponding to that of the clamped, curved shear foil. The curved shear foil and the cutting edge of the cutter each have a hyperbolic cosine curvature according to the formula: y=cxcosh x/c where y indicates the distances of the individual cutting edge points from the x-axis, x is the coordinate in the direction of the width of the cutter, and c is a constant derived from the width 2b of the clamped shear foil and the height of the curvature h of the clamped shear foil.
