An electric hair trimmer (100) generally includes a handle (102) housing a drive motor and a cutter head (200) releasably connectable to the handle. The cutter head includes a housing having an interior compartment, and a cutting assembly including a pair of cutting blades. At least one of the cutting blades is in operative connection with the drive motor upon connection of the cutter head (200) with the handle for reciprocating movement of the at least one of the blades. At least a portion of the cutting assembly is disposed within the housing, and the cutting assembly further has a front edge disposed exterior of the housing for trimming hair upon operation of the trimmer (100). The housing has a plurality of guard fingers at least in part wrapped over the front edge of the cutting assembly to inhibit the front edge against contacting a person's skin during hair trimming.

A copper-manganese mixed oxide cathode material, which is suitable for use in a cathode of an electrochemical cell, has the formula Mn x CU y O z ,•nH 2 O, wherein the oxidation state of Cu is between about + 1 and about +3, the oxidation state of Mn is between about +2 and about +7, x is equal to about 3-y, y is less than about 3, z is calculated or experimentally determined, using means known in the art, based on the values of x and y, as well as the oxidation states of Mn and Cu, and nH 2 O represents the surface and structural water present in the mixed oxide material. An electrochemical cell comprises an anode, a cathode, and a separator disposed between the anode and cathode, and an electrolyte in fluid communication with the anode, the cathode and the separator, wherein the cathode comprises the noted cathode material. The invention still further relates to such an active cathode material, or an alternative cathode material, wherein the copper-manganese mixed oxide comprises a defect spinel-type structure, which is also suitable for use as a cathode component of an alkaline electrochemical cell.

A cleaning system (900) for an electric shaver having a shaving head generally includes a housing (902, 904) having an interior space (908) configured to retain cleaning fluid within the housing. The housing (902, 904) is further configured for supporting the shaver in a generally upright orientation with the shaving head disposed at least in part within the interior space (908) of the housing. A displacement apparatus (948) is disposed within the interior space (908) of the housing (902, 904) and is selectively positionable within the housing between a first position in which the cleaning fluid within the housing defines a lower fluid level relative to the shaving head to be cleaned, and a second position in which the cleaning fluid defines a higher fluid level relative to the shaving head such that at the higher fluid level at least a portion of the shaving head of the shaver is submerged in the cleaning fluid within the housing.
摘要:
By providing a hair curler/roller which comprises a unique, distinctive construction that enables the hair roller/curler to be heated substantially more rapidly than prior art constructions, an easily used, hair curler/roller and heating system is obtained which is capable of providing rapid heating of the hair curler/roller. In addition, the heating system employed for transferring heat to the hair curler/roller is also constructed in a unique manner that optimizes heat transfer, while also being constructed efficiently and inexpensively. In accordance with the present invention, the hair curler/roller incorporates an elongated cylindrically shaped body or core formed from heat retaining metal, such as aluminum. In addition, the cylindrical body incorporates a plurality of thin, interconnected wall members peripherally surrounded by a cylindrical outer wall. Preferably, the unique metal core is easily manufactured by extrusion, thereby achieving a hair roller/curler which is easily constructed as well as capable of absorbing and retaining heat rapidly and efficiently.
