AI Technical Summary
Existing electric scissors with traditional bidirectional drive mechanisms face issues such as complex structure, difficulty in assembly and disassembly, and reduced service life due to blade thickness and meshing problems when cutting thicker vines and branches.
A bidirectional driving mechanism for electric scissors blades is introduced, featuring a rotating shaft member with a stop screw and nut, and a gear system where the driving gear and rotating shaft member are arranged on a fixed seat, allowing the upper and lower blades to rotate in the same plane, reducing thickness and preventing blade opening during cutting.
This solution improves the stability and durability of the bidirectional driving mechanism by reducing the thickness of the electric scissors and preventing blade opening during cutting, thereby enhancing the cutting performance and extending the service life of the electric scissors.
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of electric scissors, and in particular relates to a bidirectional driving mechanism for electric scissors blades and an electric scissors.BACKGROUND
[0002] Electric scissors are branch and trunk pruning tools used for orchards, gardens, vines, and the like. According to a traditional bidirectional drive mechanism for electric scissors blades, a driving gear is used to drive two bevel gears, and is then meshed with a swing arms with two racks through the bevel gears to drive two blades of the scissors to shear. However, the electric scissors of this structure have a large number of parts structurally, which makes it difficult to assemble, and this complex structure used is difficult to disassemble and to replace a certain part. In case of being damaged, the electric scissors need to be replaced entirely. In order to solve this problem, the applicant proposed a patent with number: 202020466816.4, entitled as "a novel electric scissors blade dual driving mechanism," which uses a gear connected to the motor to directly drive two blades with racks, such that the two blades of the scissors are directly driven to shear. The bevel gear is removed and the number of parts is reduced. However, the design of this structure has the following problems:
[0003] First, for a thickness of the electric scissors, it is necessary to consider a diameter of the gear and thicknesses of the two blades. In order to ensure the meshing of the driving gear with the rack, a rear part of the blade must have a large thickness, but such a large thickness will hinder the blade when shearing some intricate vines and branches, causing inaccurate shearing.
[0004] Second, when the rear parts of the two blades swing to a maximum extent, the meshing degree between the driving gear and teeth will be affected to a certain extent, which will cause the blades to open outwards when cutting some thicker vines and branches, causing damage to the electric scissors and reducing service life thereof.
[0005] In view of this, it is necessary to further propose an improved solution to solve the problems above-mentioned.
[0006] CN111512813 discloses a novel double-moving blade electric scissors. The electric scissors comprises a main body support, first and second swing teeth which are rotationally installed on the main body support through a pin-fit-nut manner, a first moving blade installed on the first swing tooth, a second moving blade installed on the second swing tooth, a bevel gear installed on the main body support and used to drive the first and second swing teeth to relatively swing to drive the first and second moving blades to relatively open or relatively close, and driving apparatus for driving the bevel gear to rotate. In the electric scissors, one bevel gear is used to drive the first and second swing teeth to relatively swing, and the first and second swing teeth can respectively drive the first and second moving blades to relatively open or relatively close while the first and second swing teeth are relatively swung so as to realize the opening or cutting action.
[0007] EP3673725A1Discloses a cutting device with at least a first and a second cutting element that can be moved relative to one another, with a first and a second lever element that can be moved relative to one another, in particular a grip element, for opening and closing the cutting elements. Driving gear 602 is rotatably mounted on second lever member 504 and spacer 562 of second lever member 504, respectively. The gear wheel 602 is supported on the one hand on a toothed section 604 of the first lever element 502 or a toothed section 604 of the spacer 560 of the first lever element 502 and on the other hand on a toothed section 606 of the second cutting element 14 or a toothed section 606 of the lever arm 557 of the second cutting element 14.SUMMARY

Through this structure, the inner rack 31 and the driving gear 50 are located behind the outer rack 21, and there is no need to provide a position for mounting the driving gear between the upper blade 32 and the lower blade 20, such that the thickness is reduced. In addition, when driving, the driving gear 50, the upper blade 32 and the lower blade 20 all rotate in a circumferential direction in the same plane, and the situation that the upper blade 32 and the lower blade 20 open outwards since the circumferential rotation of the gear and the circumferential rotation of the upper blade 32 and the lower blade 20 are perpendicular to each other is avoided, thereby improving the stability of the bidirectional driving mechanism of electric scissors blades, and making the bidirectional driving mechanism of electric scissors blades more durable.
