Abstract
The present invention generally relates to cutting devices. Specifically, the present invention relates to a deburring cutter device. In some examples, the deburring cutter includes a handle module, a blade, and a blade cover. In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the handle module includes a blade holder configured with a blade cavity having walls which are adapted to reversibly secure the blade, allowing the blade to be selectively removed.
Claims11
A cutting device comprising:
- a handle module comprising,
- a blade holder having an actuator release and a blade cavity configured to hold and reversibly secure a blade;
- a locking sleeve having an actuator aperture and configured to receive and engage with the blade holder to impart a compression fit on the blade cavity to secure the blade in the blade cavity, and
- a tension component comprising an elongate flexible member;
- wherein the actuator release is operably connected to the tension component and configured to move between a locked position and an unlocked position, wherein the unlocked position permits movement of the locking sleeve.
2 more elements
A cutting device comprising:
- a handle module comprising,
- a blade holder having a blade cavity configured to reversibly secure a blade to the blade holder,
- a locking sleeve configured to selectively receive and impart a compression fit on at least an outer portion of the blade cavity to selectively fasten the blade to the blade cavity,
- an actuator release operably connected to a tension component, moveable between a first position and a second position, and configured to selectively secure the locking sleeve to the blade holder;
- and
- wherein in the first position, the actuator release is configured to secure the locking sleeve to the blade holder in a selected position, and in the second position, the actuator release permits the movement of the locking sleeve.
3 more elements
A cutting device comprising:
- a blade, and
- a handle module comprising,
- a blade holder having a first end and a second end, the first end configured with a blade cavity having interior walls configured with relief notches and adapted to reversibly abut at least a portion of a base section of the blade to selectively pressure fit at least a portion of the blade and prevent the unintended removal of the blade from within the blade cavity, and an actuator release operably connected to a tension component disposed between the first end and the second end of the blade holder,
- a locking sleeve having an actuator aperture configured to reversibly engage with the actuator release of the blade holder and comprising a substantially hollow channel having angled interior walls adapted to receive the blade holder and to impart a compression fit on the blade cavity to narrow the relief notches of the blade cavity to tightly grip and secure the blade in place within the blade cavity.
