Abstract

Secateurs (10), comprising a first cutting element (12) and a second cutting element (14) which are rotatably connected to each other by means of a connecting pin (16) and which are moved towards each other during a cutting operation, a Schneidguthalter (22) with a on the the first cutting element (12) arranged elastically deformable clamping element (24) and one on the second cutting element (14) arranged counter element (26), wherein the clamping element (24) is substantially U-shaped and a U-legs (28) on a the cutting edge (32) distant side of the first cutting element (12) is mounted, and the other, elastically deformable U-legs (30) in the resting state of the pruner (10) is equidistant from the cutting edge (32) of the first cutting element (12) and parallel to this is free to move.

Description

The invention relates to a secateurs with a Schneidguthalter. She starts from the DE 20 2014 100 944 U1 ,

In the case of scissors, the separated material to be cut - in the case of secateurs, this is the cut-off part of the plant - falls down, if it is not held otherwise.

From the DE 20 2014 100 944 U1 is a secateurs with a clamping arrangement known, the blade and counter blade are moved to each other, wherein a wrap spring is deformed in the direction of movement of the blade. Through this, a clamping portion of a clamping element is moved to a jaw. In this way, an object to be cut off can be clamped during cutting.

The known pruner includes a plurality of additional relatively movable components whose movement can also be blocked by unavoidable in gardening pollution or at least become stiff.

The object of the invention is therefore to propose a pruning shears, which manages without relatively movable components and avoids the aforementioned disadvantages.

The object is solved by the features of claim 1.

The garden pruner according to the invention comprises a first cutting element and a second cutting element, which are rotatably connected to each other by means of a connecting pin and which are moved toward each other during a cutting operation, a Schneidguthalter with an arranged on the first cutting element elastic clamping element and arranged on the second cutting element counter element.

The pruning shears are provided with a substantially U-shaped clamping element, one U-leg of which is attached to a side of the first cutting element remote from the cutting edge. The other U-leg is elastically deformable and runs in the relaxed state equidistant from the cutting edge of the first cutting element. The other U-leg is freely movable parallel to the pointing in the direction of the second cutting element inner surface of the first cutting element.

Advantageously, the clamping element is integrally formed of elastically deformable material, in particular an impact-resistant plastic.

In a second cutting element formed as an anvil, the counter-element may be formed by the anvil itself. In all forms of scissors, according to the invention, however, an additional counter-element can also be attached to the second cutting element.

Further features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following description, which explains the invention with reference to an embodiment in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It shows

1 a secateurs in a schematic side view,

2 the secateurs off 1 in a working position in a schematic side view.

In 1 is a secateurs 10 shown in a schematic side view. It comprises a first cutting element 12 and a second cutting element 14 , The cutting elements 12 . 14 are by means of a connecting pin 16 rotatably connected to each other and sit beyond the connecting pin 16 in handles 18 . 20 continued. During a cutting process, the handles become 18 . 20 and thus the cutting elements 12 . 14 moved towards each other. On the cutting elements 12 . 14 are the parts of a slicer 22 arranged, consisting of an elastic clamping element 24 on the first cutting element 12 and a counter element 26 on the second cutting element 14 ,

The clamping element 24 is substantially U-shaped, with one of its U-legs 28 on one of the cutting edge 32 far side of the first cutting element 12 is appropriate. The other U-thigh 30 is in the direction of a double movement arrow 34 elastically deformable and runs in the relaxed state equidistant to the cutting edge 32 of the first cutting element 12 , The other U-thigh 30 is over in the direction of the second cutting element 14 facing inner surface 36 of the first cutting element 12 versatile. The U-middle section 31 of the clamping element 24 is arranged near the connecting pin.

The clamping element 24 is in one piece and consists of an elastically deformable material, preferably an impact-resistant plastic. It can also be made of metal.

Secateurs may have a blade that works against a blunt anvil, or two blades that pass under tension. For both types of the invention is suitable. In the first type of scissors, the anvil can be sufficient width than Serve counter element. In the case of the second type of scissor, or if the anvil is too narrow, a separate counter-element is expediently attached to the second cutting element.

The operation of the pruner according to the invention is described below 10 based on 2 described, in which this is shown in a working position.

When closing the secateurs 10 pushes the clamping element 24 the cut material 38 against the counter element 26 , whereby the clamping element 24 is tensioned and its restoring force the cut material 38 holds. This is held until the scissors 10 is opened again. This relaxes the clamping element 24 and goes back to his resting state.

An additional pressing device on a pair of scissors, here pruning shears, holds the material to be cut on the scissors after cutting until it is opened again. Thus, the cut can be cut with one hand, held and also deliberately stored, z. B. in a collection container. This is particularly advantageous for people who can or only want to use one hand. Even with thorny cutting material, it is then no longer necessary to touch the cut part by hand or with gloves.
