COMPLAINT FOR PATENT INFRINGEMENT
Case 6:20-cv-00951 Document 1 Filed 10/13/20 Page 2 of 52
THE PARTIES
1. This case for patent infringement is brought by Skull Shaver, a company founded
by two United States veterans who brought together their ingenuity and talents to invent, develop,
and launch novel and highly effective electric shavers. Recognizing the value of their creation,
the founders of Skull Shaver applied for and were awarded numerous patents protecting their work.
However as time went on and Skull Shaver saw its sales grow, companies like the Defendants,
many from overseas, began to knock-off Skull Shaver’s products and offend its intellectual
property.
2. Skull Shaver is a limited liability company organized and existing under the law of
the state of New Jersey, with its principal place of business at 1503 Glen Avenue, Suite 160,
Moorestown, New Jersey 08057, USA. Skull Shaver is in the business of designing and selling
patented horizontal electric shavers in the United States and abroad, including in this judicial
district.
3. Skull Shaver owns a portfolio of numerous issued United States patents related to
and embodied by various of its successful shaving products. The designs and devices claimed in
those patents have changed the way consumers view and use handheld electric shaving devices,
4. Before Skull Shaver’s inventions, prevailing handheld electric shaver devices were
limiting in grip orientation and versatility of use, particularly when shaving hair on curved parts
of the body. Most designs incorporated a vertical handle and did not provide the user with firm
gripping in order to achieve a consistent and uniform shave over curved portions of the body.
Furthermore, prior electric shavers did not fit in the user’s hand in a comfortable manner
particularly when the shaver was oriented with the grip above the cutter surface, such as when
2

Case 6:20-cv-00951 Document 1 Filed 10/13/20 Page 3 of 52
5. Skull Shaver’s patents solve these issues, since the shape and design of the shaver
housings fits the hand in a comfortable manner, especially when shaving curved parts of the body
or when the shaver is held in an orientation where the housing is above the cutter. When the shaver
is oriented in this manner, it is then possible to either grip the shaver with two fingers as between
the thumb and index finger, or between the index and middle fingers, or between the middle and
ring fingers, while resting the remainder of the hand against the skin. This helps the user properly
orient and place the cutting surface of the shaver against the skin while being able to feel whether
the skin has been sufficiently shaved, providing the user with sensory feedback.
6. Skull Shaver was founded in 2010, and shortly after it began offering the unique
and effective electric shavers for sale, its products became a hit. Since then, Skull Shaver has been
featured in local and national newspapers, radio stations, websites, and blogs.

ASSERTED PATENTS
32. The patents-at-issue in this action are U.S. Patent Nos. 8,726,528 (“the ’528
Patent”) and D672,504 (“the ’504 Patent”), (collectively, the “Asserted Patents”).
33. On May 20, 2014, the U.S. Patent Office duly and legally issued the ’528 Patent
entitled “Electric Head Shaver.” Skull Shaver is the assignee of all right, title, and interest in and
to the ’528 Patent. A true and correct copy of the ’528 Patent is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
34. On December 11, 2012, the U.S. Patent Office duly and legally issued the ’504
Patent entitled “Electric Head Shaver.” Skull Shaver is the assignee of all right, title, and interest
in and to the ’504 Patent. A true and correct copy of the ’504 Patent is attached hereto as Exhibit
B.
BACKGROUND
35. Since Skull Shaver introduced its patented products, numerous companies,
including the Defendants, began to copy the Skull Shaver Devices’ designs in their shaver products
9
COMPLAINT FOR PATENT INFRINGEMENT
Case 6:20-cv-00951 Document 1 Filed 10/13/20 Page 10 of 52
36. These infringing products are manufactured abroad by foreign companies and
advertised and sold on websites to customers in the United States across the Internet, including on
37. On information and belief, sellers of foreign infringing counterfeit electric shavers,
including the Defendants, direct advertising and marketing efforts for the accused products to
customers searching for and purchasing Skull Shaver’s products through, for example, targeted
38. For example, through Skull Shaver’s own product pages on Amazon.com, potential
Skull Shaver customers are targeted with sponsored marketing efforts directly aimed at promoting
infringing products, including on information and belief, numerous of the Defendants’ accused
devices. Similarly, when searching for Skull Shaver products on Amazon.com, potential
customers are presented with search results that include infringing knock-offs that are offered at
considerably cheaper prices, including on information and belief, numerous of the Defendants’
accused devices.
39. The Defendants represent only a small portion of the online sellers and brands
offering infringing electric shavers for purchase by customers in the United States. Over recent
years, Skull Shaver has become aware of numerous foreign companies intending to manufacture
and sell counterfeit infringing shavers to customers in the United States. However, in many cases
the entities quickly disappear and nearly identical products subsequently reappear and are sold
40. In view of the foregoing, and in an effort to curb the extensive intellectual property
abuses Skull Shaver has become aware of by foreign manufacturers importing and selling
counterfeit electric shavers to U.S. customers, Skull Shaver has no choice but to seek relief against
10
COMPLAINT FOR PATENT INFRINGEMENT
Case 6:20-cv-00951 Document 1 Filed 10/13/20 Page 11 of 52
the Defendants for infringement of its patented innovations. Simultaneous with the filing of this
complaint, Skull Shaver has also filed an investigation before the International Trade Commission
against the Defendants named in this suit for the importation and sale of the infringing electric
shavers.
COUNT I
41. Skull Shaver realleges and incorporates by reference the preceding paragraphs of
this Complaint.
42. Rayenbarny has directly infringed, and continues to directly infringe, literally
and/or under the doctrine of equivalents, one or more claims of the ’528 patent by making, using,
testing, selling, offering for sale and/or importing into the United States Rayenbarny’s Men’s 5-
in-1 Electric Shaver & Grooming Kit by AsaVea pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 271(a).
43. The claim chart attached hereto as Exhibit C describes and demonstrates how the
elements of exemplary claim 1 from the ’528 patent are practiced by Rayenbarny’s accused electric
shaver.
44. Rayenbarny’s accused electric shaver practices all of the limitations of claim 1 of
the ’528 patent. For example, Rayenbarny’s accused electric shaver comprises a housing for
containing an electrical source and drive-related components, said housing having a length and a
width, and including two substantially opposed and substantially parallel sides along said length,
said housing further including a bottom; a cutter mechanism located beneath said bottom of said
housing and spaced therefrom; a central hub extending from said bottom of said housing to said
cutter mechanism and connecting said cutter mechanism to said housing; said cutter mechanism
including a cutting surface defining a plane; a first pair of elongated recesses formed on said sides
of said housing, said first pair of elongated recesses being substantially parallel to each other and
11
COMPLAINT FOR PATENT INFRINGEMENT
Case 6:20-cv-00951 Document 1 Filed 10/13/20 Page 12 of 52
lying in a plane that is spaced apart from but parallel to the plane of said cutting surface, and a
second set of elongated spaced apart recesses formed in said bottom of said housing along said
width entirely, and extending upwardly into said bottom, said recesses of said second set being
located on opposite sides of said hub and extending perpendicular to said first pair of recesses.
45. Rayenbarny also indirectly infringes the ʼ528 patent by actively inducing the direct
infringement by third parties under 35 U.S.C. § 271(b). Rayenbarny has knowledge that its
activities concerning its accused Men’s 5-in-1 Electric Shaver & Grooming Kit by AsaVea
infringes one or more claims of the ’528 patent based on the patent marking Skull Shaver includes
on its product packaging and on its company website, and further based on at least the filing and
service of this Complaint. On information and belief, Rayenbarny is aware of the patent marking
Skull Shaver includes on its product packaging and on its company website based on Rayenbarny’s
manufacture, use, sale, offer for sale, and/or importation of knock-off Electric Shavers. On
information and belief, Rayenbarny will continue to encourage, aid, or otherwise cause third
parties to import, sell, offer for sale, and use the accused electric shaver (which are acts of direct
infringement of the ’528 patent) and Rayenbarny has and will continue to encourage those acts
with the specific intent to infringe one or more claims of the ’528 patent. Further, Rayenbarny
provides information and support to its customers, including at least product user manuals,
instructing its customers to use Rayenbarny’s accused electric shaver (which are acts of direct
infringement of the ’528 patent). Alternatively, Rayenbarny knows and/or will know that there is
a high probability that the importation, sale, offer for sale, and use of the accused electric shaver
constitutes direct infringement of the ’528 patent but took deliberate actions to avoid learning of
these facts.
12

Case 6:20-cv-00951 Document 1 Filed 10/13/20 Page 13 of 52
46. Rayenbarny also indirectly infringes the ʼ528 patent by contributing to the direct
infringement by third parties under 35 U.S.C. § 271(c). Rayenbarny has or will have knowledge
that its activities concerning the accused electric shaver indirectly infringe at least claim 1 of the
’528 patent based on the patent marking Skull Shaver includes on its product packaging and on its
company website, and further based on at least the filing and service of this Complaint. On
information and belief, Rayenbarny is aware of the patent marking Skull Shaver includes on its
product packaging and on its company website based on Rayenbarny’s manufacture, use, sale,
offer for sale, and/or importation of knock-off Electric Shavers. On information and belief,
Rayenbarny specifically designed and configured the accused electric shaver to be used by third
parties to directly infringe at least claim 1 of the ʼ528 patent. Moreover, on information and belief,
third parties have and will continue to use Rayenbarny’s accused electric shaver (which directly
infringes at least claim 1 of the ’528 patent) based on Rayenbarny’s ongoing activities, including
its support and provision of product user manuals. On information and belief, Rayenbarny’s
accused electric shavers have no substantial noninfringing uses. Further, Rayenbarny’s accused
electric shavers constitute a material part of the invention claimed in at least claim 1 of the ʼ528
patent.
47. Rayenbarny has engaged in deliberate and willful behavior with knowledge of the
’528 patent and knew or should have known that its actions constituted direct and/or indirect
infringement of the ’528 patent. Based on information and belief, such as Rayenbarny’s copying
of Skull Shavers products, including the design, look and feel and overall functionality,
Rayanbarny knew about the patented inventions embodied in Skull Shavers products such that
Rayenbarny acted with deliberate and willful behavior and deliberate indifference and willfully

individuals throughout the United States and in the State of Texas, including in this District.
49. Skull Shaver has been damaged as the result of Rayenbarny’s infringement. Upon
information and belief, Rayenbarny will continue to infringe one or more claims of the ’528 patent
50. Rayenbarny has caused and will continue to cause Skull Shaver irreparable injury
and damage by infringing one or more claims of the ’528 patent. Skull Shaver will suffer further
irreparable injury, for which it has no adequate remedy at law, unless and until Rayenbarny is

51. Skull Shaver realleges and incorporates by reference the preceding paragraphs of
this Complaint.
52. Bald Shaver has directly infringed, and continues to directly infringe, literally
and/or under the doctrine of equivalents, one or more claims of the ’528 patent by making, using,
testing, selling, offering for sale and/or importing into the United States Bald Shaver’s LK-1800
53. The claim chart attached hereto as Exhibit D describes and demonstrates how the
elements of exemplary claim 1 from the ’528 patent are practiced by Bald Shaver’s accused electric
shaver.
54. Bald Shaver’s accused electric shaver practices all of the limitations of claim 1 of
the ’528 patent. For example, Bald Shaver’s accused electric shaver comprises a housing for

cutter mechanism and connecting said cutter mechanism to said housing; said cutter mechanism
including a cutting surface defining a plane; a first pair of elongated recesses formed on said sides

second set of elongated spaced apart recesses formed in said bottom of said housing along said
width entirely, and extending upwardly into said bottom, said recesses of said second set being
located on opposite sides of said hub and extending perpendicular to said first pair of recesses.
55. Bald Shaver also indirectly infringes the ʼ528 patent by actively inducing the direct
infringement by third parties under 35 U.S.C. § 271(b). Bald Shaver has knowledge that its
activities concerning its accused LK-1800 Shaver by infringes one or more claims of the ’528
patent based on the patent marking Skull Shaver includes on its product packaging and on its
company website, and further based on at least the filing and service of this Complaint. On
information and belief, Bald Shaver is aware of the patent marking Skull Shaver includes on its
product packaging and on its company website based on Bald Shaver’s manufacture, use, sale,
offer for sale, and/or importation of knock-off Electric Shavers. On information and belief, Bald
Shaver will continue to encourage, aid, or otherwise cause third parties to import, sell, offer for
sale, and use the accused electric shaver (which are acts of direct infringement of the ’528 patent)
and Bald Shaver has and will continue to encourage those acts with the specific intent to infringe

its customers, including at least product user manuals, instructing its customers to use Bald

Alternatively, the AsaVea Shaver meets this limitation under the doctrine of

U.S. Patent No. 8,726,528 (“the ’528 patent”) describes a shaver “that fits the hand in
a comfortable manner when the shaver is oriented with the grip above the cutter
surface.” (1:45-47.) This is made possible, in part, by a first pair of elongated
recesses formed on said sides of said housing, said first pair of elongated recesses
being substantially parallel to each other and lying in a plane that is spaced apart from
but parallel to the plane of said cutting surface. (Id. at 3:36-51.) The AsaVea Shaver
is similarly designed and configured to be held from the sides of the shaver housing
and to be gripped by the user along the sides of the housing, allowing the user to
comfortably hold the shaver when the shaver is oriented with the grip above the cutter
surface, such as when shaving the head.

This helps the user properly orient and place the cutting surface of the shaver against
the skin while being able to feel whether the skin has been sufficiently shaved. (Id. at
1:56-63; see also id. at 3:36-51.) In other words, the remainder of the user’s hand

shaving the head.

Further, when the shaver is oriented in this manner and being held by the second set
of elongated spaced apart recesses formed in the bottom of the shaver housing, “it is
possible to either grip the shaver with two fingers as between the thumb and index
finger, or between the index and middle fingers, while resting the remainder of the
hand against the skin. This helps the user properly orient and place the cutting
surface of the shaver against the skin while being able to feel whether the skin has
been sufficiently shaved. (Id. at 1:56-63; see also id. at 3:52-62.) In other words, the
remainder of the user’s hand “may rest against the scalp in a manner that allows the
user to feel the surface of the scalp,” which permits sensory feedback and “helps the
user guide the shaver cutting surface as well as inspect the quality of the shave by
feel.” (Id. at 3:41-45; see also id. at Fig. 6).

Moreover, any differences between a second set of elongated spaced apart recesses

U.S. Patent No. 8,726,528 (“the ’528 patent”) describes a shaver “that fits the hand in
a comfortable manner when the shaver is oriented with the grip above the cutter

This helps the user properly orient and place the cutting surface of the shaver against

U.S. Patent No. 8,726,528 (“the ’528 patent”) describes a shaver “that fits the hand in

recesses formed on said sides of said housing, said first pair of elongated recesses
being substantially parallel to each other and lying in a plane that is spaced apart from
but parallel to the plane of said cutting surface. (Id. at 3:36-51.) The Magicfly Shaver
is similarly designed and configured to be held from the sides of the shaver housing
and to be gripped by the user along the sides of the housing, allowing the user to
comfortably hold the shaver when the shaver is oriented with the grip above the cutter
surface, such as when shaving the head.

Further, when the shaver is oriented in this manner and being held by the first pair of
elongated recesses formed on said sides of said housing, “it is possible to either grip
the shaver with two fingers as between the thumb and index finger, or between the
index and middle fingers, while resting the remainder of the hand against the skin.
This helps the user properly orient and place the cutting surface of the shaver against
the skin while being able to feel whether the skin has been sufficiently shaved. (Id. at
1:56-63; see also id. at 3:36-51.) In other words, the remainder of the user’s hand
“may rest against the scalp in a manner that allows the user to feel the surface of the
scalp,” which permits sensory feedback and “helps the user guide the shaver cutting
surface as well as inspect the quality of the shave by feel.” (Id. at 3:41-45; see also id.

to comfortably hold the shaver when the shaver is oriented with the grip above the
cutter surface, such as when shaving the head.

Further, when the shaver is oriented in this manner and being held by the first pair of
elongated recesses formed on said sides of said housing, “it is possible to either grip
the shaver with two fingers as between the thumb and index finger, or between the
index and middle fingers, while resting the remainder of the hand against the skin.
This helps the user properly orient and place the cutting surface of the shaver against
the skin while being able to feel whether the skin has been sufficiently shaved. (Id. at
1:56-63; see also id. at 3:36-51.) In other words, the remainder of the user’s hand
“may rest against the scalp in a manner that allows the user to feel the surface of the
scalp,” which permits sensory feedback and “helps the user guide the shaver cutting
surface as well as inspect the quality of the shave by feel.” (Id. at 3:41-45; see also id.
at Figs. 4, 5).
The design and configuration of the sides of the Homeasy Shaver housing, including
the recesses in the sides of the shaver housing, permits the user to perform this same

function—allowing the user’s hand to rest against the scalp in a manner that allows
the user to feel the surface of the scalp, in the same way—by comfortably handling
the shaver from the sides of the shaver housing, to achieve the same result—
providing the user with sensory feedback and helping the user guide the shaver cutting
surface as well as inspect the quality of the shave by feel. Moreover, any differences
between the first pair of elongated recesses formed on said sides of said housing and
the recesses in the sides of the shaver housing of the Homeasy Shaver are
insubstantial.

recesses of said second set being located on
opposite sides of said hub and extending

Alternatively, the Homeasy Shaver meets this limitation under the doctrine of
equivalents.
The ’528 patent describes a shaver “that fits the hand in a comfortable manner when

Case 6:20-cv-00951 Document 1-14 Filed 10/13/20 Page 12 of 13
the shaver is oriented with the grip above the cutter surface.” (1:45-47.) This is made
possible, in part, by a second set of elongated spaced apart recesses formed in said
bottom of said housing along said width entirely, and extending upwardly into said
bottom, said recesses of said second set being located on opposite sides of said hub
and extending perpendicular to said first pair of recesses. (Id. at 3:52-62.) The
Homeasy Shaver is similarly designed and configured to be held from the bottom side
of the shaver housing and to be gripped by the user along the bottom of the housing
on either side of the central hub, allowing the user to comfortably hold the shaver
when the shaver is oriented with the grip above the cutter surface, such as when
shaving the head.
Further, when the shaver is oriented in this manner and being held by the second set
of elongated spaced apart recesses formed in the bottom of the shaver housing, “it is
possible to either grip the shaver with two fingers as between the thumb and index

hand against the skin. This helps the user properly orient and place the cutting
surface of the shaver against the skin while being able to feel whether the skin has
been sufficiently shaved. (Id. at 1:56-63; see also id. at 3:52-62.) In other words, the

user to feel the surface of the scalp,” which permits sensory feedback and “helps the
user guide the shaver cutting surface as well as inspect the quality of the shave by

The design and configuration of the bottom of the Homeasy shaver housing, including
the recesses in the bottom of the shaver housing on either side of the central hub,
permits the user to perform this same function—allowing the user’s hand to rest
against the scalp in a manner that allows the user to feel the surface of the scalp, in the

Moreover, any differences between a second set of elongated spaced apart recesses
formed in said bottom of said housing and the recesses in the bottom of the shaver
