Abstract: A toenail trimmer is configured to aid elderly and flexibility-challenged individuals, and includes: a housing with an opening; a cutting member mounted within the housing with a portion proximate to the opening; a motor to drive the cutting member to remove a portion of a toenail inserted through the housing opening; and a shaft, with the housing positioned proximate to a first end of the shaft. The shaft includes a support member, such as a cuff, that is configured to releasably secure a first portion of the shaft to the user's upper arm, and an ergonomic handle portion configured for grasping by the user's hand. The ergonomic handle portion and the support member provide stable support for the toe nail trimmer at two positions with respect to the user's arm during use of the toe nail trimmer. The handle may cooperate with a base to provide support/guidance thereto.

Abstract: A nail groomer to aid elderly and flexibility-challenged individuals, is convertible between: a first configuration adapted for filing toenails, and a second configuration adapted for filing fingernails. The nail groomer includes: a grooming head, shaft, and handle configured to be grasped by a user's hand to manipulate the nail groomer. The grooming head has a housing, a motor, and a filing bit with an abrasive surface. The motor rotates the filing bit, so the abrasive surface can abrade portions of a nail. A housing opening releasably receives one end of the shaft, to form the first configuration, and a particular shaft length permits positioning the filing bit at a user's toenails when the handle is grasped and manipulated by the user. With the shaft detached from the grooming head, the user grasps and manipulates the grooming head's housing directly with one hand, for filing of fingernails of the other hand.
