  • Patent number: 11338377
    Abstract: A power tool includes a cutting unit configured to perform a cutting action, and a cutting action input unit configured to turn the cutting action on and off. The cutting action input unit is configured to, when the cutting action input unit is turned on, cause the cutting unit to move in a direction of an end position of the cutting action, and when the cutting action input unit is turned off, cause the cutting unit to stop moving in a case where the cutting action has not ended at a time when the cutting action input unit is turned off, and move in a direction of a standby position at which the cutting unit was located prior to a start of the cutting action in a case where the cutting action has ended at the time when the cutting action input unit is turned off.

  • Patent number: 11312033
    Abstract: A rotary electric shaver has a new structure which compatibly achieves both a function of the rotary electric shaver allowing a user to have less tingling feel on the skin and a function of a reciprocating electric shaver enabling easy deep shaving of hair, by replacing a first head. A rotary electric shaver includes a main body having a drive shaft and a connection part, a first head having a built-in first transmission drive system connected to the drive shaft to rotate a first inner blade, and detachably connected to the connection part, and a second head detachably connected to the connection part from which the first head is removed. The second head has a built-in second transmission drive system connected to the drive shaft to cause the second inner blade to reciprocate.

  • Patent number: 11135732
    Abstract: There is provided a rotary electric shaver which can easily prevent an outer blade which is undesirable to be brought into contact with a skin from coming into contact with the skin, by reducing the number of contact times of the outer blades in a head with the skin, even when the shaver is used in a state where the head is substantially parallel to the skin. A rotary electric shaver includes a main body having a drive shaft, and a head connected to the main body. At least one of a plurality of blade units has a fulcrum plate, a turning plate, a spring, and a fixing plate, and has a lock mechanism capable of changing a height position of at least one of outer blades corresponding one-to-one to the blade units.

  • Patent number: 10913169
    Abstract: A reciprocating-type electric shaver includes an outer blade, an oscillator that is driven to reciprocate by a motor, and an inner blade that reciprocates in cooperation with the oscillator. The oscillator includes attachment portions that are respectively attached to a main body, a movable base, both end sides of which are supported by the attachment portions via support portions having a substantially U-shape, and a cooperation portion that cooperates with the inner blade. In the respective support portions, a portion on a side connected to the attachment portion in a base portion, which is one linear portion of the U-shape, is formed in flexible oscillating pieces. The respective oscillating pieces are formed to be tilted in a direction orthogonal to a reciprocating direction of the movable base so that a lower portion side of the respective oscillating pieces is open outward in the reciprocating direction of the movable base.

  • Patent number: 10471612
    Abstract: A rotary electric shaver according to the present invention includes an outer blade whose upper surface functions as annular shaving surfaces having multiple hair inlets formed therein, and an inner blade that has a small blade which rotates while coming into sliding contact with a lower surface of the outer blade. The inner blade is an integral structure using a metal material, and has a projection in which an upper surface side is a convex portion and a lower surface side is a concave portion at a center position in a radial direction. An upper end portion of an inner blade drive shaft directly engages with the concave portion so as to be disengageable therefrom.
