Abstract:
The invention concerns a depilatory apparatus comprising a housing (1), an electric motor (2) driving a depilatory head including plucking members, the mobile part of the head being supported by two lateral flanges, each plucking member comprising at least a mobile blade actuated by mechanical means to close and open the plucking members. Said mechanical means comprise in at least one flange first control means (400) acting as a cam, and on the mobile part of the depilatory head second actuating means receiving the movement derived from the cam and transmitting it to the mobile blades, the plucking members being returned in opening or closing position by elastic means. The hair plucking members located on a common generatrix, and their actuating means and their elastic means are mounted in a common support with which they form a module. The modules are mutually articulated side by side and form a chain.
