Abstract
Abstract The present invention comprises a razor head assembly to which is operatively connected a pre-packaged, pressurized unit of shaving cream or gel. The razor head assembly contains a valve mechanism and an opening whereby the contents of the container of cream or gel may be dispensed as required and needed. The assembly further carries a horizontal mounted bracket for holding the cartridge razor when shaving and a vertically mounted bracket for holding the disposable cartridge at a vertical position along side the razor handle when the kit is not in use. A cover is provided for the razor head assembly when the blade is stored on the razor handle.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
158 words
A safety razor kit comprising a razor head assembly and a handle component of at least a disposable, pre-packaged, pressurized unit of shaving cream or gel operatively connected to said razor head assembly for dispersement of it contents through said assembly and a valve mechanism and associated opening in said assembly for said dispersement; said assembly comprising an elongated head element having a first element mounted perpendicularly thereto on one end to hold a disposable razor cartridge for shaving, a bracket on the lower portion of said element and mounted parallel to the long axis of said head element to store said cartridge, a flared base element on the other end of said head element to engage said handle component, and a passageway extending inwardly from said base element into said head element to receive a spring-biased dispenser spout from said handle component which is selectively contacted by said valve mechanism which is slidably positioned in said passageway.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
158 words
A safety razor kit comprising a razor head assembly and a handle component of at least a disposable, pre-packaged, pressurized unit of shaving cream or gel operatively connected to said razor head assembly for dispersement of it contents through said assembly and a valve mechanism and associated opening in said assembly for said dispersement; said assembly comprising an elongated head element having a first element mounted perpendicularly thereto on one end to hold a disposable razor cartridge for shaving, a bracket on the lower portion of said element and mounted parallel to the long axis of said head element to store said cartridge, a flared base element on the other end of said head element to engage said handle component, and a passageway extending inwardly from said base element into said head element to receive a spring-biased dispenser spout from said handle component which is selectively contacted by said valve mechanism which is slidably positioned in said passageway.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
52 words
The kit according to claim 1 wherein said valve mechanism comprises a valve plug having a nozzle extending through said associated opening and a plunger attached to the upper surface of said plug and extending through said head element for depression by a shaver into contact with said spout for said dispersement.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
38 words
The kit according to claim 1 wherein said head element and said base element are separate elements, said head element being slidable within the passageway in said base element to activate said dispensing nozzle as said valve mechanism.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
28 words
The kit according to claim 1 wherein there are means on said head assembly which cooperate with said handle component to secure said assembly to said handle component.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
43 words
The kit according to claim 4 wherein said head assembly has a flared base element and said means comprise a pair of diametrally positioned upwardly curving slots in said base element which frictionally engage projecting elements on the top of said handle component.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
72 words
The kit according to claim 4 wherein said base element is bifurcated and said means comprise threads on the outer surface of said bifurcated portions which cooperate with threads on the inner surface of a rotatable collar placed on said base element and having an interior diameter such that the threading of the collar on the base element frictionally grips the upper end portion of the handle component within the bifurcated portions.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
22 words
The kit according to claim 1 further comprising a cap assembly for said head assembly when said kit is not in use.
