AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing nail clippers lack a retrofit or removable anti-slip function, leading to unstable operation due to finger slipping during nail cutting.

Method used

A permanent magnet with thin friction surfaces is attached to the operating lever of the nail clipper, providing a removable anti-slip solution that prevents finger slipping.

Benefits of technology

The solution allows for stable nail clipping by preventing finger slipping and can be easily retrofitted and detached from existing nail clippers.

Abstract

To provide a slip-proof tool for nail clippers which enables stable operation without the fingers slipping on an operating lever when clipping nails and can be attached and detached later. [Solution] Anti-slip devices 1, 4 made of circular or polygonal permanent magnets with thin friction surfaces on both the top and bottom surfaces or on one surface are attached by being attracted to the parts of operating levers 6, 7 where the fingers come into contact, allowing the nail clipper to be operated stably without fingers slipping.

Description

[Technical field]

[0001] This invention relates to a method for preventing fingers from slipping when cutting nails. [Background technology]

[0002] In nail clippers, which use a lever-type operating lever to bring upper and lower blades into contact with each other to cut nails lodged between the teeth, the position of the operating finger changes depending on where the nail is being cut, making the finger prone to slip and making the operation unstable. Therefore, by attaching a non-slip device, stable operation can be achieved, but there are no existing nail clippers with a non-slip function that can be retrofitted or removed.

[0003] In the prior art document 1 below, the anti-slip part is formed integrally with the nail clipper body, and cannot be added later. Removal is not possible. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Practical use 06-024614 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The present invention provides an anti-slip device for nail clippers that has means for solving the following problems. 1. When clipping the nails, fingers slip, making it difficult to clip the nails steadily. 2.Anti-slip device that can be attached to existing nail clippers. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] This device consists of an approximately circular or polygonal permanent magnet with a thin friction surface formed on both or just one of the top and bottom faces, and is attached to the operating lever of the nail clippers after installation to prevent fingers from slipping. Effect of the Invention

[0007] This invention is expected to have the following effects: 1. By attaching this device to nail clippers, your fingers will not slip when using the clippers, allowing for stable operation. 2. It can be attached to or removed from existing nail clippers. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0009] An anti-slip device for nail clippers which has a thin friction surface formed on both the top and bottom surfaces or on one surface of a roughly circular or polygonal permanent magnet. EXAMPLES

[0010] Below, we will explain an embodiment using a circular permanent magnet with reference to the attached drawings. 1 shows a side view of the anti-slip device body showing the first embodiment of the present invention, 2 is a circular permanent magnet, and 3 is an anti-slip part formed on the top and bottom surfaces of 2, which is formed by roughening the surface of permanent magnet 2, coating it with a material with high friction, or attaching a rough-surfaced sheet or the like.

[0011] Reference numeral 4 denotes a second embodiment of the present invention, in which a permanent magnet 2 having a stronger magnetic force than that of the first embodiment is used, and the anti-slip portion 3 is formed on only one of the upper and lower surfaces.

[0012] Reference numeral 5 denotes nail clippers, and FIG. 7 shows the state in which the anti-slip device main body 1 or 4 is attached to the upper operating lever 6 and lower operating lever 7 of the nail clippers 5. FIG. 6 is a top view of FIG. 7, and FIG. 8 is a bottom view. The anti-slip device 1 of the first type is attracted and fixed to each operating lever by the magnetic force of the permanent magnet 2 via the anti-slip portion 3, and the anti-slip device 4 of the second type is attracted and fixed only by the magnetic force of the permanent magnet 2. FIGS. 10 and 11 show the state in which only one anti-slip device is attached to the upper operating lever 6 or the lower operating lever 7. [Explanation of symbols]

[0013] 1. Anti-slip device body (first form) 2. Permanent magnets 3 Anti-slip part 4. Anti-slip device body (second form) 5. Nail clippers 6 Upper operation lever 7 Lower operation lever

Claims

1. An anti-slip device for nail clippers in which friction parts are formed on both the top and bottom surfaces or only on one surface of a substantially circular or polygonal permanent magnet.

2. 2. The non-slip device for nail clippers according to claim 1, which is attached to a portion of an operating lever of a nail clipper which cuts a nail inserted between upper and lower blades by bringing them into close contact with each other using a lever-type operating lever, where the finger comes into contact.
