conjectural. At most, going by the discussion at page 2, axis
XX must be considered as merely adjacent or intersecting axis
YY. There is no disclosure of axis XX lying on or below a
surface to be shaved.
In a second embodiment of Kirk, in Figures 4-9, a
swivel plate 30 has at its center a pivot pin 31 which engages
in hole 22 on integral head plate 21. The pivot pin 31
defines axis XX in the embodiment of Figures 4-9. From the
orientation of pivot pins 51 which define axis YY in Figure 4,
it is our finding that the pivot pin 31 and thus the axis XX
of this embodiment is somewhat below the blade-containing
cartridge or head, and thus
somewhat above the surface to be shaved, as argued by Oldroyd
in his fact statement 37 on page 2 of the Oldroyd brief. Axis
XX does not lie on or below the surface to be shaved.
The last embodiment disclosed by Kirk uses an arched
metallic foil F with a plurality of apertures A therein. The
apertures have sharpened edges. Page 3 at 56-61. In this
embodiment, axis XX is clearly marked in Figure 12. It is not
on or below a surface to be shaved.
