20120023750 | Lubrication Box For A Wet Shaving Implement - According to one aspect of the present invention, a lubrication box includes a first portion, a shaving aid material, and a second portion. The first portion of the lubrication box has a skin-engaging surface and at least one sidewall that, together, form a cavity. The skin-engaging surface includes at least two holes therethrough. The shaving aid material, which is optionally distributed in the cavity in a series of layers, is ultrasonically compressed into the cavity. The second portion of the lubrication box is attached to the first portion such that the cavity is substantially closed. A gap exists between in the cavity between the shaving aid and the second portion of the lubrication box to permit the shaving aid material to expand during normal use. The skin-engaging surface is askew relative to the shave plane of the blades. | 02-02-2012 |
20130097872 | Razor Cartridge With Improved Guard - A razor cartridge has a housing having a guard and a cap and a plurality of parallel blades supported by the housing between the guard and the cap, each blade having a respective cutting edge. The guard includes a first and a second group of rows of elongated, elastomeric fins, each group being arranged generally parallel to the cutting edges and positioned to engage a user's skin, the second group being closer to the blades than the first group. The tips of the fins of the first group define a surface and an extension of the surface intersects the outer surface of the outermost fin of the second group to define a step between this intersection and a plane parallel to a plane through the cutting edges and tangential to the tip of outermost fin in a direction away from the guard. | 04-25-2013 |

20080287972 | SYSTEMS FOR ANASTOMOSING AN EVERTED VESSEL WITH ANOTHER VESSEL - Compression plate apparatus enables vessels to be joined together in various anastomosis configurations. The compression plates are guided to each other in a parallel orientation by guides. The compression plate apparatus may be utilized with an intraluminally directed anvil apparatus or an externally positioned anvil apparatus. One of the compression plates assists in the eversion of the anastomosis fenestra contour. One of the compression plates enables a graft vessel to be pre-everted so that the anastomosis fenestra contours are everted. The apparatus provides a structure that enables the vessels to be joined without being penetrated. | 11-20-2008 |
