Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0107213A1] The invention relates to a shaving head (5) which comprises a cutting member (17) having a cutting edge (19) for cutting hairs (53) growing from human skin (51). The shaving head (5) also comprises a hair manipulator (21) which is arranged in front of the cutting edge, viewed in a shaving direction (Y) of the shaving head. The hair manipulator can be driven in a direction parallel to the cutting edge to move the hairs in a direction substantially parallel to the cutting edge, and protects the skin against incised wounds and irritations. According to the invention, the hair manipulator is arranged in a fixed position with respect to the cutting member, the hair manipulator and the cutting member being jointly drivable in a direction parallel to the cutting edge. In this manner, an accurately defined position of the hair manipulator relative to the cutting member, which is necessary for a safe operation of the shaving head, can be obtained in a simple and reliable manner without the use of an accurate construction of the shaving head. The shaving head is used in a shaver (1) according to the invention, which further comprises driving means (43) for driving the shaving head.
