Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hair trimmers, in particular to a blade adjustment structure and a hair trimmer. Background Art
[0002] The blade head of an existing hair trimmer (such as an electric clipper) typically consists of a movable blade and a fixed blade, which trim through reciprocating motion. To meet users' demands for different haircut lengths, some electric clippers are equipped with a lever on the blade head that can adjust the forward and backward position of the movable blade relative to the fixed blade, thereby adjusting the distance between the two. However, this design has a flaw: during use, after the user selects the gear position between the movable blade and the fixed blade, the movable blade is easily moved by contact with the hair during trimming, causing its position relative to the fixed blade to change, thereby causing the gear position to shift, which not only affects the trimming effect but also reduces the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0008] Optionally, the second blade assembly includes a fixed blade and a pressing block, wherein the pressing block is located between the blade housing and the fixed blade, and the pressing block is provided with a second waist-shaped hole connected to the movable pin shaft for left and right sliding.
[0009] Optionally, the first blade assembly includes a movable knife group, a tension spring and a slider, the slider is installed on the knife housing for sliding back and forth, one end of the tension spring is installed between the knife housing and the slider, and the other end of the tension spring is connected to the movable knife group.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the blade adjustment structure of the present invention has an inclination angle design of the inclined groove and a mechanical structure in which the movable pin slides along the inclined groove. When the user adjusts the position of the first blade assembly through the lever, the inclined groove converts the left and right movement of the lever into the forward and backward movement of the first blade assembly. The friction generated is small, and the force transmission path is optimized, making the adjustment action more labor-saving and smooth. The user can easily push the lever to complete the adjustment; when an external force acts on the first blade assembly, for example, during the trimming process, the moving blade encounters resistance from hair or other objects, and the external force attempts to move the first blade assembly in the opposite direction and drive the lever, the reverse external force must overcome the inclination angle of the inclined groove to push the movable pin, that is, a greater force is required to push the lever.

[0022] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0023] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "upper" and "lower" and the like indicate positions or location relationships based on the positions or location relationships during normal use of the product.
[0024] The terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature. The drawings of the embodiments of the present invention are provided with a coordinate system XYZ, wherein the positive direction of the X-axis represents the left, the negative direction of the X-axis represents the right, the positive direction of the Y-axis represents the front, the negative direction of the Y-axis represents the back, the positive direction of the Z-axis represents the top, and the negative direction of the Z-axis represents the bottom.
[0025] The utility model provides a blade adjustment structure, combined with Figures 1 to 4As shown, it includes a knife housing 1, a first blade assembly 2 and a second blade assembly 3 connected to the knife housing 1, the first blade assembly 2 is movably connected to the knife housing 1 front and back, and the first blade assembly 2 is provided with an oblique groove 231; it also includes a shift rod 4 and a moving block 5 movably connected to the knife housing 1, the shift rod 4 is movably connected to the moving block 5, and the moving block 5 is provided with a moving pin 51 that slides with the oblique groove 231. When the shift rod 4 moves, it drives the moving block 5 to move left and right, and the first blade assembly 2 can move forward and backward relative to the second blade assembly 3 under the sliding cooperation between the moving pin 51 and the oblique groove 231.
[0026] Among them, the first blade assembly 2 can be a movable blade or a fixed blade. In this embodiment, the movable blade is preferably used. The first blade assembly 2 is preferably a fixed blade, which is a movable part for trimming hair. Its forward and backward movement determines the distance between the movable blade and the fixed blade, thereby adjusting the hair cutting length; the inclined groove 231 on the first blade assembly 2 is a long guide groove 234 designed at an inclined angle. The inclined groove 231 cooperates with the movable pin 51 to convert the left and right movement of the movable block 5 into the forward and backward movement of the first blade assembly 2; the shift lever 4 has a certain length, and one end of the shift lever 4 extends outside the blade housing 1. It is an external control component used by the user to adjust the blade position. It is movably connected to the movable block 5. When the user pushes the shift lever 4, the movable block 5 slides left and right, thereby driving the movable pin 51 to move along the inclined groove 231 of the first blade assembly 2, thereby realizing the forward and backward movement of the first blade assembly 2 relative to the second blade assembly 3; the structural design inside the blade housing 1 provides space for the movable block 5 and the shift lever 4 to ensure the smooth operation of the adjustment action.
[0027] In the blade adjustment structure of this embodiment, due to the inclined angle design of the inclined groove 231 and the mechanical structure of the movable pin 51 sliding along the inclined groove 231, when the user adjusts the position of the first blade assembly 2 through the lever 4, the inclined groove 231 converts the left and right movement of the lever 4 into the forward and backward movement of the first blade assembly 2, resulting in less friction and an optimized force transmission path, making the adjustment action more labor-saving and smooth, and the user can easily push the lever 4 to complete the adjustment; when an external force acts on the first blade assembly 2, for example, during the trimming process, the movable blade encounters resistance from hair or other objects, and the external force attempts to move the first blade assembly 2 in the opposite direction and drive the lever 4, the reverse external force must overcome the inclined angle of the inclined groove 231 to push the movable pin 51, that is, a large force is required to push the lever 4. In this way, even if the first blade assembly 2 is subjected to a large external force during the trimming process, the lever 4 is not easily moved, and the adjustment gear will not be easily changed, thereby ensuring the accuracy and consistency of hair cutting.
[0028] Optionally, combined Figure 3As shown, one end of the shift lever 4 is provided with an arc-shaped tooth 41 , which is located on the movement path of the shift lever 4 and arranged in an arc shape. The moving block 5 is provided with a straight tooth 52 meshing with the arc-shaped tooth 41 .
[0029] Among them, the design of the arcuate teeth 41 conforms to the natural movement trajectory of the lever 4. When the user pulls the lever 4, the arcuate teeth 41 will rotate around a certain central axis. This arc structure can maintain good meshing with the straight teeth 52 on the moving block 5; the straight teeth 52 are located in the middle position of the moving block 5 and are arranged on one side of the moving block 5. When the user pulls the lever 4, the arcuate teeth 41 rotate and drive the straight teeth 52 to move together, thereby pushing the moving block 5 to move left and right; the meshing structure of the straight teeth 52 and the arcuate teeth 41 can effectively convert the rotational motion of the lever 4 into the linear motion of the moving block 5, reduce the loss of force, and improve the efficiency of adjustment, so that the user saves effort when pulling the lever 4, and the adjustment of the lever 4 is also more precise.
[0030] Optionally, combined Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 As shown, the left and right ends of the movable block 5 are each provided with a movable pin 51, and the first blade assembly 2 is correspondingly provided with two inclined slots 231. The inclination angle and inclination direction of the two inclined slots 231 are the same, and the movable pins 51 correspond to the inclined slots 231 one by one. The movable pins 51 at the left and right ends ensure that the movable block 5 can more stably drive the first blade assembly 2 to move forward and backward during movement; the two inclined slots 231 respectively cooperate with the movable pins 51 at the left and right ends of the movable block 5 to form a two-point guide, ensuring that the first blade assembly 2 does not tilt or deflect when moving forward and backward; the two movable pins 51 share the force of the movement of the lever 4, making the entire adjustment process smoother and improving the accuracy of blade adjustment.
[0031] Optionally, combined Figure 3 、 Figure 5As shown, a rotating pin 42 is connected to the center of the arc-shaped tooth 41, and the arc-shaped tooth 41 is hingedly connected to the knife housing 1 through the rotating pin 42. The rotating pin 42 fixes the arc-shaped tooth 41 on the knife housing 1 and is hingedly connected to the knife housing 1, so that the shift lever 4 can swing left and right within a certain range. The rotating pin 42 acts as a fulcrum of the arc-shaped tooth 41, ensuring that the arc-shaped tooth 41 can stably rotate around this center point when the shift lever 4 is moved; the moving block 5 is provided with a first waist-shaped hole 53 connected to the rotating pin 42 for left and right sliding. The waist-shaped hole is long and narrow, allowing the rotating pin 42 to slide left and right within a certain range in the moving block 5 to adapt to the rotational movement of the arc-shaped tooth 41, and at the same time allowing the moving block 5 to move left and right under the drive of the shift lever 4. The sliding connection design between the first waist-shaped hole 53 and the rotating pin 42 makes the arc-shaped rotational motion of the shift lever 4 and the linear motion of the moving block 5 perfectly compatible, reducing friction and stress concentration between mechanical parts, lowering the wear rate, and extending the service life of the adjustment mechanism.
[0032] Optionally, combined Figure 4 、 Figure 5 As shown, it also includes a gear spring 6 and a steel ball 7. The upper and lower ends of the gear spring 6 are respectively connected to the steel ball 7 and the knife housing 1, that is, the steel ball 7 maintains a certain elastic force through the elastic action of the gear spring 6. The shift lever 4 is provided with a plurality of gear holes 43. One of the plurality of gear holes 43 is selected to be positioned and matched with the steel ball 7. The steel ball 7 is pressed downward into the gear hole 43 on the shift lever 4 by the elastic force of the gear spring 6, ensuring that the shift lever 4 can be firmly locked at a specific gear position. The plurality of gear holes 43 are distributed along the rotation path of the shift lever 4, and the positions of the gear holes 43 are arranged in a circular shape; the center of the circle where the plurality of gear holes 43 are located is the same as the center of the arc-shaped tooth 41, so that the distribution of the gear holes 43 is completely consistent with the rotation trajectory of the shift lever 4. When the shift lever 4 rotates, the steel balls 7 can be stuck in different gear holes 43 one by one to achieve precise adjustment of the blade position. The introduction of the gear spring 6 and steel ball 7 structure provides a clear gear positioning mechanism for the lever 4, and multiple gear holes 43 provide users with different options, ensuring that the blade position can be accurately adjusted and locked; the locking structure formed by the steel ball 7 and the gear hole 43 provides the user with a clear adjustment feedback. When the lever 4 moves to each gear, the user can feel the clear "locking" feeling of the gear. This feedback enhances the user's sense of control and operating experience; the precise cooperation between the steel ball 7 and the gear hole 43 ensures that the lever 4 can be stably locked in a specific gear after adjustment, and it is not easy for the gear to change due to external force or vibration.
[0033] Optionally, combined Figure 2 、 Figure 4As shown, the second blade assembly 3 includes a fixed blade 31 and a pressure block 32. The fixed blade 31 is a fixed cutting blade, which is used to cooperate with the movable blade in the first blade assembly 2 to complete the hair cutting task. The pressure block 32 is located between the blade housing 1 and the fixed blade 31. The pressure block 32 is provided with a second waist-shaped hole 321 that is connected to the movable pin 51 for left and right sliding. The second waist-shaped hole 321 allows the movable pin 51 to slide left and right in the pressure block 32, ensuring that during the adjustment process, the pressure block 32 can adapt to the movement of the movable pin 51 without restricting or affecting the adjustment action of the first blade assembly 2, ensuring that the entire adjustment process is smooth.
[0034] Optionally, combined Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the first blade assembly 2 includes a movable blade group 21, a tension spring 22 and a slider 23. The movable blade group 21 is a blade part that can move back and forth relative to the fixed blade 31 for cutting hair. The slider 23 is installed on the blade housing 1 for sliding back and forth, and can slide back and forth along the guide rail or specific sliding path of the blade housing 1. The back and forth sliding of the slider 23 directly affects the front and back position of the movable blade group 21, thereby controlling the distance between the movable blade and the fixed blade 31; one end of the tension spring 22 is installed between the blade housing 1 and the slider 23, and the other end of the tension spring 22 is connected to the movable blade group 21 to control the tension and stability of the movable blade group 21. When the slider 23 slides back and forth, the tension spring 22 controls the tensioning force of the movable blade group 21, so that the movable blade group 21 remains stable during the back and forth movement and provides a certain reset ability. Through the cooperation of the slider 23 and the tension spring 22, the movable blade can maintain stable forward and backward movement. The guiding function of the slider 23 ensures the accuracy of adjustment, and the tension control of the tension spring 22 enables the blade to maintain an appropriate tension state after adjustment to avoid looseness or overtightening.
[0035] Optionally, combined Figure 3 、 Figure 4As shown, the tension spring 22 comprises two torsion springs 221. One end of the two torsion springs 221 is connected to form a connecting portion 222, forming an integral fixed structure. The other end extends to form a spring foot 223. Both spring feet 223 are connected to the movable blade assembly 21 and provide tensioning force on the movable blade. The slider 23 is provided with a mounting hole 232 for mounting the connecting portion 222 and two mounting slots 233 for mounting the torsion springs 221. The two torsion springs 221 are located between the slider 23 and the blade housing 1. The mounting holes 232 ensure that the two torsion springs 221 are securely mounted on the slider 23. The main body of the torsion spring 221 is mounted within the mounting slots 233, ensuring that the torsion springs 221 are fixed between the slider 23 and the blade housing 1 and functioning properly. This allows the torsion springs 221 to fully exert their tensioning function during blade adjustment. Assembling the tension spring 22 is simple, as the tension spring 22 does not need to be forcibly pressed into the blade housing 1, saving effort during assembly.
[0036] Optionally, combined Figure 4 、 Figure 5 As shown, the slider 23 is provided with a guide groove 234 and the inclined groove 231, and the knife housing 1 is provided with a guide column 11 connected to the guide groove 234 for forward and backward sliding; the guide groove 234 is used to guide the slider 23 to slide forward and backward in the knife housing 1, ensuring that the slider 23 slides along a fixed path to avoid left and right deviation or shaking; through the cooperation of the guide groove 234 and the guide column 11, the sliding direction of the slider 23 inside the knife housing 1 is precisely controlled and can only move in the forward and backward direction.
[0037] Another embodiment of the present invention provides a hair trimmer including the blade adjustment structure described above.
[0038] In the hair trimmer of the present invention, due to the inclined angle design of the inclined groove 231 and the mechanical structure of the movable pin 51 sliding along the inclined groove 231, when the user adjusts the position of the first blade assembly 2 through the lever 4, the inclined groove 231 converts the left and right movement of the lever 4 into the forward and backward movement of the first blade assembly 2, resulting in less friction and an optimized force transmission path, making the adjustment action more labor-saving and smooth, and the user can easily push the lever 4 to complete the adjustment; when an external force acts on the first blade assembly 2, for example, during the trimming process, the movable blade encounters resistance from hair or other objects, and the external force attempts to move the first blade assembly 2 in the opposite direction and drive the lever 4, the reverse external force must overcome the inclined angle of the inclined groove 231 to push the movable pin 51, that is, a large force is required to push the lever 4. In this way, during the trimming process, even if the first blade assembly 2 is subjected to a large external force, the lever 4 is not easily moved, and the adjustment gear position will not be easily changed, thereby ensuring the accuracy and consistency of hair cutting.
[0039] Although the present disclosure is disclosed as above, the protection scope of the present disclosure is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art may make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure, and these changes and modifications will fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
