Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9009119A1] Appliance for plucking out unwanted hair, comprising a series of thin blades (3a, 3b) placed one behind the other with their edges parallel so as to form, in groups of two, a plurality of gripping and plucking pincers. The blades are mounted on a common support (5) which executes a translational alternating movement along an axis parallel to the edges of the blades. In addition, the blades (3a, 3b) are coupled with two small transverse actuating bars (11a, 11b) which are capable of successively spreading apart and clamping the edges of two neighbouring blades (3a, 3b) which constitute the same pincers, by transverse displacement of said bars in one direction and the other. The bars themselves are actuated by control means provided opposite their ends. This appliance is intended to be used to remove hair from the skin.
