摘要:
A rotary cutter knife provided with a guard member, which extends beyond the outer edge (21) of the rotary blade (20) to enhance the safety. The guard member is divided into two sub-members (30a, 30b), which can independently move between an extended position where an outer profile (31a, 31b) of the sub-member extends beyond an outer edge (21) of the rotary blade (20) and a retracted position where the outer profile (31a, 31b) of the sub-member is retracted such that the outer edge (21) of the rotary blade (20) is exposed. Thus, the cutting edge (21) of the rotary blade (20) is not exposed in the area where the cutting operation is not performed, and the cutting edge (21) is exposed only in a limited area associated with the cutting operation, such that the highly enhanced safety is realized.
摘要:
The present invention provides a cutter knife 10, which even if made with only the metal parts, smoothness of sliding operation of the blade is not degraded in time, even without lubricating oil nor friction resistant coating. A slider 30 of the cutter knife carries a rolling member 50, which is made rolling contact with the outer surface of the cutter knife. Further, the slider has a protrusion 35 which extends into the cutter knife body 11 and is engaged into a hole 25 formed on the blade 20. Since an external force applied onto the slider is received by the rolling member, the slider can be operated smoothly. Besides, the height of the protrusion is determined, such that the protrusion does not touch the inner surface of the cutter knife. Thus, the protrusion tip never interfere with the inner surface of the cutter knife, thereby the sliding operation of the slider would not be prevented.
