Abstract
A twin-pivot-head razor with a head that has an outer body that is provided with a window to receive a separate subassembly in which is integrated the holding mechanism for the razor blade unit. Starting from a spring-loaded neutral position, the razor blade unit, via this holding mechanism, can carry out pivoting movements about an axis that is parallel to the cutting edge of the razor blade. The separate subassembly is also pivotable within the outer body about an axis that is perpendicular to the aforementioned pivot axis, whereby the neutral position is formed by a spring arrangement within the outer body.
