[0029] Reference Figures 1 to 5 The cutting device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a first handle 100 , a second handle 200 , a circular cutter 300 and a base 400 .

[0030] The left end of the second handle 200 is hinged to the left end of the first handle 100 so that the first handle 100 and the second handle 200 can be opened and closed relative to each other. Specifically, the first handle 100 and the second handle 200 are hinged by rivets. Of course, the first handle 100 and the second handle 200 can also be hinged by hinges or other structures, which are not limited here. The annular cutter 300 is detachably provided on the first handle 100, and the blade of the annular cutter 300 faces the second handle 200. The base 400 is provided on the second handle 200 corresponding to the annular cutter 300, and the base 400 can cooperate with the annular cutter 300 to cut the sheet.

[0031] When used on the sealing site, it is only necessary to replace the annular cutter 300 of the required size to accurately cut out the circular blind plate of the required size, which is beneficial to improving the sealing efficiency and reducing the sealing cost. Specifically, after replacing the annular cutter 300 of the required size, place the carried rectangular blind plate between the annular cutter 300 and the base 400, and then apply force to the first handle 100 and the second handle 200 to make the annular cutter 300 and the base 400 cooperate with each other and cut the rectangular blind plate.

[0032] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the base 400 is detachably disposed on the second handle 200, and a relief groove 410 is provided on the top of the base 400 for the annular cutter 300 to be inserted into, so that the blade of the annular cutter 300 can pass through the rectangular blind plate when cutting the rectangular blind plate, so as to facilitate the separation of the cut circular blind plate from the rectangular blind plate.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the avoidance groove 410 passes through the base 400 vertically, so that the base 400 has a cylindrical structure that passes through from top to bottom, so as to facilitate the removal of the circular blind plate that falls into the avoidance groove 410.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the first handle 100 includes a first connecting portion 110 and a first gripping portion 120, the left end of the first connecting portion 110 is hinged to the left end of the second handle 200, and a first threaded connecting portion 310 is provided on one side of the annular cutter 300 corresponding to the first connecting portion 110, and a first threaded connecting hole (not shown in the figure) is provided on the right end of the first connecting portion 110 corresponding to the first threaded connecting portion 310, and the first threaded connecting portion 310 is threadedly connected to the first threaded connecting hole, and a second threaded connecting portion 320 is provided on the other side of the annular cutter 300 corresponding to the first gripping portion 120, and a second threaded connecting hole (not shown in the figure) is provided on the left end of the first gripping portion 120 corresponding to the second threaded connecting portion 320, and the second threaded connecting portion 320 is threadedly connected to the second threaded connecting hole. The structure is simple and it is easy to replace annular cutters 300 of different sizes.

[0035] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the first connecting portion and the annular cutter, as well as the first gripping portion and the annular cutter, may also be detachably connected via a snap-fit ​​structure, which is not limited here.

[0036] Reference Figures 1 to 5In some embodiments, the annular cutter 300 is covered with a cutter protective shell 500 capable of abutting against the top of the base 400. The cutter protective shell 500 is a cylindrical structure with an open bottom. The side walls of the cutter protective shell 500 are provided with avoidance through holes 510 corresponding to the first threaded connection portion 310 and the second threaded connection portion 320. An elastic reset member is provided between the cutter protective shell 500 and the annular cutter 300 so that the annular cutter 300 is completely stored in the cutter protective shell 500 when the cutter protective shell 500 is not subjected to external force, and the cutter protective shell 500 can move relative to the annular cutter 300 when subjected to external force, so that the annular cutter 300 is extended from the cutter protective shell 500. During use, when the staff applies force to the first handle 100 and the second handle 200 to make the cutter protection shell 500 abut against the top of the base 400 through the rectangular blind plate, the cutter protection shell 500 will be restricted by the base 400. At this time, continuing to apply force to the first handle 100 and the second handle 200 can overcome the elastic force of the elastic reset member and drive the cutter protection shell 500 and the annular cutter 300 to move relative to each other, so that the annular cutter 300 extends from the cutter protection shell 500 and is inserted into the avoidance groove 410, thereby When cutting the rectangular blind plate, when the cutter protective shell 500 is away from the top of the base 400, the cutter protective shell 500 will lose the restriction of the base 400, so that the elastic reset member can drive the cutter protective shell 500 and the annular cutter 300 to move relative to each other, thereby allowing the annular cutter 300 to be re-stored in the cutter protective shell 500. The above structure can protect the staff and is conducive to preventing the staff from being accidentally injured by the annular cutter 300 during work. At the same time, it makes the above cutting device less likely to hurt people when it is not in use.
