Abstract: A cutting blade applied to a reciprocating-type cutting device (1) including a pair of cutting blades (2, 3) that are reciprocated in a state of being superposed on each other to cut an object to be cut. The cutting blade includes: a base element (21); and a plurality of blade bodies (22) jutting from the perimeter of the base element (21), the plurality of blade bodies (22) each having a sliding surface (24) that slides over a mating blade body (32). At least some of the plurality of blade bodies (22) each have a high-hardness section (22A) formed in a part including at least both ends (24a, 24b) in a sliding direction of the sliding surface (24), the high-hardness section (22A) having hardness higher than the hardness of the other part. The thickness of the high-hardness section (22A) is set to 10 ?m or more and 200 ?m or less.

Abstract: A relay drive unit drives a relay by supplying a power source voltage from a battery. The relay drive unit includes a power source voltage detector, a drive signal generator, and a relay drive circuit. The power source voltage detector detects the power source voltage. The drive signal generator generates a PWM signal as a drive signal for maintaining the relay in an ON state. The PWM signal has a preset duty ratio according to a magnitude of the power source voltage detected by the power source voltage detector. The relay drive circuit turns a supply of the power source voltage from the battery on/off based on a duty ratio of the drive signal generated by the drive signal generator.

Abstract: A reciprocating-type cutting blade device (1) has first and second driving bodies (15, 16) driven reciprocatingly in opposite directions. First and second cutting blade bodies (13, 14) are driven reciprocatingly by detachably engaging the first and second driving bodies (15, 16). Two detachable guide plates (11, 12) slidably hold these driving and cutting blade bodies. A first boundary (Q1) is formed between engaging portions (31, 33) of the first cutting blade body (13) and the first driving body (15), and a second boundary (Q2) is formed between engaging portions (32, 34) of the second cutting blade body (14) and the second driving body (16). The boundaries intersect only at points in a planar view, and the engaging portions (31-34) of the cutting blade bodies (13, 14) and the driving bodies (15, 16) maintain this state of intersection over a whole stroke of reciprocating motion.
