  • Publication number: 20180141222
    Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to reduce stress on the ring finger during use of a pair of scissors, and to reduce the burden for hairdressers. A moving blade being continuous with a thumb ring via a handle portion comprises a first scissor half, while a stationary blade being continuous with a ring-finger ring via a handle portion comprises a second scissor half. The first scissor half and the second scissor half are pivotably coupled at a pivot point. The second scissor half is formed by a scissor half blade side portion and a scissor half ring side portion being coupled by a coupling portion, which includes a pivot mechanism and an elastic mechanism. The scissor half ring side portion is pivotable about a coupling axis with respect to the scissor half blade side portion. The elastic mechanism acts so as to turn back (oppose) the pivotal movement.

  • Publication number: 20160263753
    Abstract: Provided are scissors with which the use of a thumb or the bending of a wrist can be reduced, and which can be used even by a hairdresser already suffering from tenosynovitis. Two half bodies are pivotably connected by a shaft support part. The first half body has a grip part, and the second half body has a trigger part. The grip part is supported by being sandwiched between the thenar and the bases of the four fingers, as well as being in contact with the palm line formed between the thenar and the bases of the four fingers. The tips of the third and fourth fingers are hooked onto the trigger part. When the third and fourth fingers are flexed, the second half body pivots in the closing direction via an extension part, and blade parts overlap one another, thereby cutting hair.
