Device for catching and collecting horn parts that accrue when cutting fingernails and toenails with nail scissors

Description

The innovation concerns a collecting room with a container in which the horn pieces that fall when cutting fingernails and toenails with nail scissors are caught and collected and thus prevented from flying away uncontrollably.

It is known that when cutting fingernails and toenails with nail scissors, the horny parts fly around uncontrollably at the moment of cutting and dirty the corresponding rooms, so that subsequent cleaning of the scattered parts is usually necessary.

The innovation is based on the task of collecting the horny parts cut off from fingernails or toenails using nail scissors directly in a collecting chamber with a container located on the nail scissors or integrated into the nail scissors, from which the horny parts can be emptied after the hygiene work has been completed.

The task is solved in accordance with the innovation by arranging a collecting space (a) above the cutting surfaces on the top of the nail scissors, which is open at the bottom. When the nail scissors are closed, this creates a closed space with the cutting surfaces, thus preventing the severed horn material from flying away uncontrollably and allowing the horn material to slide into an adjacent container (c) when the nail scissors are held at a slight angle as usual. This container has a curve at the end (d) to prevent the cut material from sliding forward again when the scissors are held horizontally. After completing the hygiene work, the cut material can be shaken out by placing the open scissors on their tip or emptied through a closable opening (e) at the other end of the container.

Claims (8)

Subject: Utility model application G 86 29 388.5 Note: Erich Heussel, 5^20 Lahnstein New protection claims from 15.12.1986 Device for catching and collecting horn parts that accrue when trimming fingernails and toenails using nail scissors 1. Device for catching and collecting horn parts that accrue when cutting fingernails and toenails using nail scissors, characterized by a collecting space that forms on the top of the nail scissors above the cutting surfaces when the nail scissors are closed and that merges into an adjacent container. 2. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that the collecting space with the adjoining container is integrated into the nail scissors construction; i.e. a widened hollow scissors lever forms the container space and the cutting surface merges into the collecting space in one piece. 3. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that the collecting space with the container is mounted on the nail scissors and the container is arranged centrally or laterally. k. Device according to claim 3, characterized in that the collecting space with the container is removable. 5. Device according to one of claims 1 to h, characterized in that the container has a curved extension. tt
• i 6. Device according to one of claims 1 to 51, characterized in that the container with the curved extension has an emptying opening. 7. Device according to one of claims 1 to 6, characterized in that the collecting space is one-piece, i.e. sits on a blade of the nail scissors. 8. Device according to one of claims 1 to 6, characterized in that the half-body of the collecting space is in two parts , ie that a partial space on each cutting edge of the nail scissors forms the collecting space when the scissors are closed.
