ABSTRACT:
A cylindrical rotor for an epilating device of a kind which includes a support body containing an electrical motor which in use provides a rotational drive to the cylindrical rotor. The cylindrical rotor includes a rotor body, a shaft extending through the rotor body about which the rotor body can rotate. At least one array of radially extending blade pairs is positioned to present mutually interacting pinching edges of each the blade pair at the circumference of the cylindrical rotor. Each blade pair includes a rotor body stationary blade and a movable blade. Each of the movable blades of the array is mounted on a shuttle carried by the rotor body which is in a cammed disposition with the shaft. The cammed disposition is of a kind with cooperative surfaces of the shaft and the shuttle which upon the relative rotation of the shaft with the rotor body and the shuttle carried with the rotor body, moves the shuttle in an oscillating manner. Such repeated motion brings each blade pair into and subsequently out of mutual engagement at least at the circumference of the cylindrical rotor to entrap and subsequently release hairs there between.
