Abstract

A self-hair clipper includes a housing ( 1 ), a motor ( 29 ) in the housing ( 1 ) for driving a blade ( 18 ); and a comb adjusting mechanism that forms a space for receiving the motor ( 29 ) therein, the comb adjusting mechanism includes two cam wheels ( 3 ), and wherein the motor ( 29 ) is positioned between the two cam wheels ( 3 ).

Claims (20)

1. A self-hair clipper including:

a motor for driving a blade; and

an adjusting mechanism for an associated comb, wherein the adjusting mechanism defines a space for receiving the motor therein, and wherein the adjusting mechanism comprises:

two cam wheels, wherein the motor is positioned between the two cam wheels, and wherein each cam wheel includes a cam and a gear integrally formed;

a comb control that includes a rack, the rack having teeth; and

a slider that includes two separated holders for supporting the two cam wheels;

wherein the gears of the two cam wheels engage the teeth of the rack of the comb control, and the space for receiving the motor is formed between the two holders.

2. The self-hair clipper according to claim 1 , wherein the motor is obliquely positioned between the two cam wheels.

3. The self-hair clipper according to claim 1 , further including:

a comb for controlling hair length during cutting;

the slider includes two separated attaching legs extending downwardly for fixing the slider to the comb.

4. The self-hair clipper according to claim 3 , wherein the two cam wheels rotate synchronously in the same direction when the comb control is actuated.

5. The self-hair clipper according to claim 1 , wherein the two cam wheels rotate synchronously in the same direction when the comb control is actuated.

6. The self-hair clipper according to claim 1 , wherein the rack has a gear modulus (m) of 0.5, a pitch circle diameter of 184 mm, a number of teeth of 368 and a gear pitch (t) of 1.57 mm,
