Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004095973A1] The invention relates to an epilation head (1) for an epilation device, embodied as a rotating body, mounted such as to rotate about the longitudinal axis (2) thereof, with a number of pairs (10, 11, 12, 13) of pincer elements (4, 5), distributed along the longitudinal axis (2) within the active plucking length (L) thereof. The device comprises operating elements (6), for bringing the pincer elements (4, 5) into pinching contact with each other in pairs and then subsequently to open the same again, in order to pinch hairs between the pincer elements (4, 5) and to pluck said hairs. The pairs of pincer elements each have an opening width (W) between the pinch points (9) in the open state, such that the sum of the opening widths (W) of all pairs of pincer elements (4, 5) corresponds to at least the active plucking length (L) of the epilation head (1).
