Abstract

The clipper has a motor connected to a cutting guide via an endless screw. The guide is operated by a program stored in a microprocessor to provide manual and automatic modes to a user. A preset hair cutting length is selected by the user through up and down buttons and the guide is displaced towards a desired position, in the manual mode. An average hair cutting length e.g. short length, is selected, the guide is displaced towards a determined height and a zone of a cranium to be treated is displayed, in the automatic mode, where the cutting lengths are symbolized by pictograms.

Description détaillée de l'inventionDetailed description of the invention

Le guide de coupe motorisé de la présente invention se destine à faciliter l'usage des tondeuses à cheveux pour l'utilisateur non professionnel. Il présente à l'intérieur du boitier, un moteur relié par un arbre au guide de coupe. Le guide de coupe est asservi à un programme disponible via un microprocesseur proposant différentes options à l'utilisateur.The motorized cutting guide of the present invention is intended to facilitate the use of hair clippers for the non-professional user. It has inside the case, a motor connected by a tree to the cutting guide. The cutting guide is slaved to a program available via a microprocessor offering various options to the user.

Les options qui se présentent à l'utilisateur sont le mode manuel et le mode automatique. Le mode manuel est installé par défaut et l'utilisateur choisit la hauteur de coupe à l'aide de boutons « UP » et « DOWN ». Le guide de coupe motorisé se déplace alors automatiquement vers la position voulue.The options available to the user are manual mode and automatic mode. The manual mode is installed by default and the user chooses the height of cut using buttons "UP" and "DOWN". The motorized cutting guide then moves automatically to the desired position.

En mode automatique, la tondeuse propose à l'utilisateur différentes coupes de cheveux symbolisées par des pictogrammes (voir figure 2). L'utilisateur sélectionne la hauteur moyenne de cette coupe, par exemple court, moyen ou long. Finalement, la tondeuse déplace le guide de coupe à la hauteur voulue et affiche la zone du crâne à traiter. Ce mode de fonctionnement permet un grand nombre de combinaisons de longueurs de coupe de cheveux aboutissant à de nombreuses coiffures possibles.In automatic mode, the mower offers the user different haircuts symbolized by pictograms (see Figure 2). The user selects the average height of this cut, for example short, medium or long. Finally, the mower moves the cutting guide to the desired height and displays the area of the skull to be treated. This mode of operation allows a large number of combinations of hair cutting lengths leading to many possible hairstyles.
