Abstract
A rotary shaving head 3 has at least one cutter unit 10, each cutter unit comprising a cap 16 having an external surface 20 with hair-entry openings 18 for engaging the skin of a user; and a rotary cutter 24 having cutting elements 32 supported by a carrier 26, the rotary cutter being locatable within and rotatable with respect to the cap. The shaving head further comprises: a support member 12 for supporting the cutter unit; and a retainer 30, arranged to engage and lock with the support member by relative rotation therewith and retain the cap and the rotary cutter therebetween, wherein the retainer comprises an annular body 36, 38 defining a drive opening 42, the annular body being provided with one or more holes 40 allowing cut hairs to pass through. The holes are shaped as directional indicators indicating a direction of rotation of the retainer with respect to the support. As a result of the pro posed design, a user can identify the retainer as being a rotational component even though it is located within the support member. In an alternative embodiment, the retainer is provided with gripping formations which are formed as directional indicators.
