ABSTRACT:
An operating head, such as a hair trimming device, is mechanically and electrically connected to a power supply unit, for example in the form of a handle, by a bayonet coupling, with a female member on the handle and a male member on the trimming device. The male member has a plug part that engages slidably into a sleeve portion of the female member and has pin projections for cooperation with bayonet slots in the sleeve portion. Electrical contacts are arranged centrally within the plug part and the sleeve portion which themselves form further electrical contacts. A shroud surrounds the male member and engages the handle through a seal to prevent water ingress to the electrical contacts.
