Cutting device
An electric cutting device includes: a pair of cutting blades configured to clamp and cut an object; an electric motor configured to generate a driving force necessary for operating the cutting blades; a controller configured to control an operation of the electric motor; an operation device configured to be switched between an ON state and an OFF state by a user operation; and a detector configured to: enter into an ON state in a case where the object is present between the pair of cutting blades; and enter into an OFF state in a case where the object is not present. The controller is configured to execute an operation of closing the pair of cutting blades in a case where both the operation device and the detector are in the ON state.
1 . An electric cutting device, comprising:
a pair of cutting blades configured to clamp and cut an object;
an electric motor configured to generate a driving force necessary for operating the cutting blades;
a controller configured to control an operation of the electric motor;
an operation switch having an ON state and an OFF state configurable by a user operation; and
a detector configured to:
enter into an ON state in a case where the object is present between the pair of cutting blades; and
enter into an OFF state in a case where the object is not present,
wherein the controller is configured to execute an operation of closing the pair of cutting blades in a case where both the operation switch and the detector are in the ON state, and
wherein in a period where the operation of closing the pair of cutting blades is performed, the controller is configured to:
stop the operation of closing the pair of cutting blades when the operation switch enters into the OFF state; and
continue the operation of closing the pair of cutting blades when the detector enters into the OFF state.
2 . The cutting device according to claim 1 , wherein in a state where one of the operation switch and the detector is in the ON state, the controller is configured to:
in response to another one of the operation switch and the detector being turned from the OFF state to the ON state, start the operation of closing the pair of cutting blades.
3 . The cutting device according to claim 2 , wherein in a state where the operation switch is in the ON state, the controller is configured to:
in response to the detector being turned from the OFF state to the ON state, start the operation of closing the pair of cutting blades.
4 . The cutting device according to claim 2 , wherein in a state where the detector is in the ON state, the controller is configured to:
in response to the operation switch being turned from the OFF state to the ON state, start the operation of closing the pair of cutting blades.
5 . The cutting device according to claim 1 , wherein the detector comprises:
an actuator configured to come into contact with the object inserted between the pair of cutting blades and be actuated in response to a force from the object.
6 . The cutting device according to claim 5 , wherein the actuator protrudes toward a front end side beyond the cutting blades.
7 . An electric cutting device, comprising:
a pair of cutting blades configured to clamp and cut an object;
an electric motor configured to generate a driving force necessary for operating the cutting blades;
a controller configured to control an operation of the electric motor;
an operation switch having an ON state and an OFF state configurable by a user operation; and
a detector configured to:
enter into an ON state in a case where the object is present between the pair of cutting blades; and
enter into an OFF state in a case where the object is not present,
wherein the controller is configured to execute an operation of closing the pair of cutting blades in a case where both the operation switch and the detector are in the ON state, and
wherein in a state where the cutting blades are stopped, in a case where only one of the operation switch and the detector remains in the ON state for a predetermined period, the controller is configured to:
even if both the operation switch and the detector are subsequently turned to the ON state, not to start the operation of closing the pair of cutting blades.
