Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention is concerned with a trimmer comb ( 1 ) that comprises a base sheet ( 10 ) that has a toothed front side, the toothed front side comprising a side-by-side arrangement of guard teeth ( 11 ) and narrow teeth ( 12 ), wherein the tips ( 15, 11 d , 11 d ′) of the guard teeth ( 11 ) are wider in the longitudinal extension direction (y) of the trimmer comb than the tips ( 15 ′) of the narrow teeth ( 12 ) and the geometry of the narrow teeth ( 12 ) is reduced when compared to the geometry of the guard teeth ( 11 ). These two different trimmer comb teeth geometries serve to press down skin and to avoid injuries by hooking of trimmer comb teeth into skin pores or channels, while a high cutting efficiency is ensured because of the reduced geometry of the narrow teeth ultimately allowing a reduced average spacing distance between the trimmer teeth for a given width of the guard teeth tips. The invention is also concerned with a hair trimmer comprising such a trimmer comb and a hair removal device comprising such a hair trimmer.
