Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to a cutting tool. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to the cutting tool which allows ease of blade replacement for common users.
  • Cutting tools such as secateurs, loppers, rakes, pliers are used for performing cutting action using one or more blades. Put simply, such tools provide increased mechanical assistance and ease of operation to a common user to conveniently perform operations on objects such as branches having varying dimensions. Further, the cutting tools provide benefits such as trapping bypass cutting or simply "bypass" which allows pruning/cutting by the cutting tools while holding an object (i.e. branch) with one of the cutting edges.
  • the '793 reference provides a cutting tool.
  • the cutting tool includes an enclosure.
  • the cutting tool further includes a first blade and a second blade.
  • the cutting tool further includes a dowel clamping piece. At least one of the first blade and the second blade is replaceable. The dowel clamping piece is taken out to pull at least one of the first blade and the second blade.
  • the '793 reference falls short of providing a smooth and safe application with user-friendly replacement of blade(s) of the cutting tool.
  • a further example of prior art is given by the patent documentation WO2018/205126A1
  • the cutting tool includes a first blade.
  • the cutting tool further includes a second blade.
  • the second blade is pivotally coupled to the first blade.
  • the first blade and the second blade together perform a cutting action on an object placed between them.
  • the cutting tool further includes a drive unit.
  • the drive unit is operatively coupled to at least one of the first blade and the second blade.
  • the drive unit is configured to selectively provide a supplemental motor force to assist a movement of at least one of the first blade and the second blade to perform the cutting action.
  • the cutting tool further includes a rope.
  • the rope is operatively coupled to the drive unit.
  • the rope provides force for a movement of the first blade.
  • the cutting tool is characterized in that an adapter is operatively coupling the first blade with the rope.
  • the adapter has an opening to removably fit the first blade with the adapter.
  • the adapter allows on-demand replacement of the first blade through the opening of the adapter.
  • a connection element that may include a removable nut and/or screw is provided outside of a handle of the cutting tool or is provided accessible from outside of a handle of the cutting tool.
  • the removable connection element that may include a removable nut and/or screw can be provided at the pivoted position of the first blade and the second blade.
  • the removable connection element, in particular a nut and/or screw allows ejection of the first blade on disassembly of the removable connection element or is configured to allow ejection of the first blade on disassembly of the removable connection element. So, the removable nut and/or screw provides a convenient arrangement to eject the first blade without any deformations of other parts of the cutting tool.
  • the drive unit includes a motor, a gearbox, a drum, a printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) and a battery to selectively provide the supplemental motor force.
  • This supplemental motor force by the drive unit provides the mechanical advantage to assist cutting action by the blades.
  • the cutting tool includes a slider or trigger to activate or deactivate the drive unit. This allows to have a safe and convenient operation of the cutting tool with the provision of the slider or trigger.
  • the cutting tool includes a top handle and a bottom handle which are operatively coupled with the second blade and the first blade respectively.
  • the cutting tool can be provided in the form of a garden shears or a secateurs to be operated manually and one-handed.
  • the first blade is releasably coupled to the second blade and/or the the first blade is releasably coupled to a handle, in particular to the bottom handle and/or wherein the first blade is releasably coupled to the adapter.
  • the first blade is enabled to be released from the cutting tool, such that a replacement blade can be coupled to the cutting tool if appropriate.
  • all components of the drive unit are housed in a single handle, in particular in the top handle. Accordingly, it is possible to provide the bottom handle as a very slim handle. Further, mounting of the drive unit may be simplified if arranged in the same handle.
  • the adapter is formed to couple to a loop formed by the rope in particular in that the rope forms a loop around the adapter.
  • the adapter has a sleeve-like form or is a sleeve, in particular wherein the first blade passes through two openings formed in a substantially cylindrical wall of the adapter to removably fit the first blade with the adapter.
  • the adapter is sufficiently rigid and enables to receive and transfer a force from the rope to the blade coupled to the adapter. Further, the blade can be coupled easily to the adapter.
  • the adapter comprises a, preferably circumferential, recess in which the rope, in particular the loop formed by the rope, is arranged. In this way, the rope can be attached to a seat formed within the adapter, thereby preventing the rope from slipping off the adapter.
  • the adapter comprises one or two cutout(s), in particular provided in the cylindrical wall of the adapter, in which the rope, in particular the loop formed by the rope, may be arranged such that the rope is prevented from sliding off the adapter. Also these elements allow attachment of the rope to an adapter, wherein the rope may be prevented from slipping off the adapter.
  • the adapter is attached to the bottom handle and to the first blade in such way as to allow, in particular pivotal, movement of the first blade relative to the bottom handle.
  • a movement of the blade relative to the bottom handle may be detected by a switch, enabling determination of the manual force applied to the handle and thereby enabling determination whether an assisting force to be supplied by the cutting tool shall be added to the manual force or not.
  • This effect is in particular achieved in that, in a mounted state of the first blade, the adapter is attached to the first blade such that the adapter cannot move relative to the first blade, but wherein the adapter is attached to the bottom handle such that it is enabled to move relative to the handle, at least when the first blade moves relative to the bottom handle. It shall be appreciated that it is possible that the adapter is not directly attached to the bottom handle, but only indirectly via the first blade, or that the adapter is only in touch with, but not fixed to the bottom handle.
  • the adapter comprises a hollow space which is configured to receive at least a part of a spring of the cutting tool, at least in a fully compressed state of the spring.
  • the spring can be accommodated partially within the adapter and the bottom handle, allowing a compact design of the cutting tool.
  • the adapter is provided with a tube element which extends from opening to opening, in particular through which the first blade passes such that the rope is mechanically separated from the shaft when the shaft is moved out of or into the adapter.
  • the rope is protected from damage by the blade passing through the adapter and possibly entangling with the rope.
  • the passage formed by the adapter for the first blade is configured to ensure that an end of a shaft of the first blade connects with a connector positioned within the bottom handle, in particular positioned within an end portion of the bottom handle.
  • a switch or the like may be arranged within an end region of the bottom handle, that shall detect relative movement between the bottom handle and the first blade, it is advantageous when the first blade is guided during passage through the bottom handle towards the switch part for connection with the first blade.
  • connection of the first blade with the connector of the switch is simplified.
