  • Publication number: 20240149478
    Abstract: A drive cap uses snap fasteners to couple with the housing assembly of a hair clipper. The drive cap uses joining structures to align with the upper and lower housings of the housing assembly. Once correctly aligned, snap fasteners enable a snug fit and enhance the finish of the hair clipper. The snap fasteners can be located on an inner surface of the drive cap, lower housing, and/or upper housing. A snap detent is located on the inner surface of an adjacent surface to receive the snap fastener. A combination of protrusions, extensions, voids, and recesses, in addition to the snap fasteners ensures a secure fit for the drive cap between the upper and lower housings. The snap fasteners couple the drive cap to upper and lower housings seamlessly along the outer surface of the hair clipper and facilitate quick release of the drive cap for maintenance or cleaning.
