  • Nail clipping retainer
    Patent number: 4380120
    Abstract: This invention is an apparatus which retains nail clippings within a nail clipper during the process of clipping. The retaining member is attached to one side of the clipper assembly and has retaining walls for shielding the clippings from being scattered in an undesired manner away from the proximity of the clipper. Alternate embodiments are placed within the confines of the clipper and a flexible shroud which surrounds the cutting members of the clipper. The invention is further characterized by the clipper cutting edges being angularly disposed for a better approach to the cutting of finger nails and toe nails.
