Abstract
There is provided a blade assembly having a stationary comb or blade and a recepricating cutter. The blade Assembly permits for adjustment over a range of cut lengths and detachability/convertability to a range of hair clippers.
Claims15
A hair clipper comprising:
- a body with a tongue structure pivotally mounted to and supported by said body;
- a blade assembly detachably securable to said body and having at least a stationary blade and a reciprocating blade, each blade having a cutting edge;
- an actuator;
- and
- a control lever operatively connected to said actuator, wherein when said control lever is rotated, said actuator causes said cutting edge of said reciprocating blade to move relative to said cutting edge of said stationary blade so as to allow the hair cutting length to be adjusted,
- wherein said blade assembly has a pocket structure with a bracket for selectively and detachably engaging said tongue structure and thereby enabling said blade assembly to be detachably secured to said body.

A blade assembly for releasable engagement with a hair clipper, said blade assembly comprising:
- a stationary blade;
- a reciprocating blade positioned adjacent said stationary blade;
- a guide structure;
- a mounting structure operatively connecting said guide structure and said reciprocating blade;
- and
- a U-shaped pocket structure having a bracket for selectively engaging a tongue, wherein said tongue is pivotally mounted to said hair clipper.
3 more elements
An adjustable blade assembly for a hair clipper comprising:
- a stationary blade with a first cutting edge;
- a reciprocating blade positioned adjacent said stationary blade and having a second cutting edge;
- a U-shaped pocket structure with a pair of opposed walls having apertures therein for receiving an actuating rod;
- and
- a control lever operatively connected to said actuating rod, wherein when said control lever is rotated, said actuating rod causes said second cutting edge of said reciprocating blade to move relative to said first cutting edge of said stationary blade so as to allow the hair cutting length to be adjusted.
