Abstract

Consisting of the addition of a trough 4 along the rear face 1 of the blades 2 of the manicurists' and chiropodists' clippers 3, and, by extension, to all other similar tools, this device, forming a small reservoir which is closed when the cutting edge 7 of the blades 2 enters into contact, prevents, during cutting operations, projection of nail clippings and other debris and enables them all to be recovered.

Description

DISPOSITIF ANTI-PROJECTIONS
ET CAPTEUR DE ROGNURES POUR PINCES
DE MANUCURES ET PEDICURES.ANTI-SPRAY DEVICE
AND TRIMMING SENSOR FOR CLAMPS
MANICURES AND PEDICURES.

La présente invention concerne un dispositif adapté aux pinces de manucures et pédicures, et par extension aux ciseaux et cisailles en général, aux pinces coupantes de mécaniciens et aux instruments chirurgicaux, qui évite lors des opérations de coupe, la projection de rognures d'ongles et autres déchets, et permet leur récupération totale. The present invention relates to a device suitable for pliers for manicures and pedicures, and by extension to scissors and shears in general, to cutting pliers for mechanics and to surgical instruments, which avoids during cutting operations, the projection of nail clippings and other waste, and allows their total recovery.

Une large enquête assortie des précautions d'usa ge pour la conservation du secret et pallier ainsi le risque de divulgation, a été menée auprès des spécialistes qui font profession du soin des ongles : manucures et pédicures. Il ne s'en est pas trouvé un seul ne qui déplore la proJection en tous sens des rognures d'ongles lors des opérations de coupe, et tous se sont déclarés prêts à utiliser un moyen non contraignant qui leur permette de supprimer radicalement ce désagréable inconvénient de leur métier. A large survey, accompanied by the usual precautions for keeping the secret and thus mitigating the risk of disclosure, was carried out with specialists in the nail care profession: manicures and pedicures. There has not been a single one who deplores the projection in all directions of nail clippings during cutting operations, and all have declared themselves ready to use a non-binding means which allows them to radically eliminate this unpleasant inconvenience. of their profession.

Le moyen proposé consiste en l'adJonction le long du bord postérieur 1 des 2 lames 2 de la pince (ou des ciseaux), d'une petite gouttière 4 de meme largeur,rapportée par soudure 5, brasure ou tout autre moyen d'assemblage, dont le pourtour6dressé dans le même plan que la ligne de coupe de l'outil 3 soit établi de telle sorte que lorsque les tranchants 7 se rejoignent, le pourtour 6 des 2 gouttières 4 entre aussi en coincidence, l'ensemble constituant de ce fait un petit réservoir suffisamment clos pour intercepter et retenir la plus infime rognure. The proposed means consists of adding along the rear edge 1 of the 2 blades 2 of the forceps (or scissors), a small gutter 4 of the same width, added by welding 5, brazing or any other means of assembly , the periphery of which is drawn in the same plane as the cutting line of the tool 3 is established so that when the cutting edges 7 meet, the periphery 6 of the 2 gutters 4 also coincides, the assembly thus constituting a small tank sufficiently closed to intercept and retain the smallest clippings.

Dans une version plus évoluée de l'amélioration apportée à ces outils 3 il est envisagée que ces réservoirs anti-projections soient
tère,creusés dans la masse lors du matrigage et
de l'usinage de chacune des 2 branches de l'outil 3
2ème,affûtés tout le long du pourtour 6 de manière
que la pince puisse servir, non seulement tradi
tionnellement en utilisant le bord concave des
tranchants, mais encore par retournement en uti
lisant les lèvres convexes du réservoir comme
pince à envies par exemple.In a more advanced version of the improvement made to these tools 3, it is envisaged that these anti-splash tanks are
tere, dug in the mass during the matrigage and
the machining of each of the 2 branches of tool 3
2nd, sharpened all around periphery 6 so
that the pliers can be used, not only tradi
using the concave edge of the
sharp, but again by flipping in uti
reading the convex lips of the tank like
pliers for example.

Enfin, les lèvres des gouttières 6 pouvant être également ou inégalement plus hautes que le plan du tranchant 7 des lames 2 adjacentes et se recouvrant en partie comme le font les lames d'une paire de ciseaux peuvent être utilisées pour les mêmes usages et faire de Ces outils 3 des instruments combinés : pinces et ciseaux. Finally, the lips of the gutters 6 can be equally or unevenly higher than the plane of the cutting edge 7 of the adjacent blades 2 and overlapping in part as do the blades of a pair of scissors can be used for the same purposes and make These tools 3 combined instruments: pliers and scissors.

Claims

1 - Anti-splash device for nail clippings and other waste adapted along the rear edge of the two blades 2 of the pliers 3 of manicures and pedicures, scissors, shears, cutting pliers for mechanics and surgical instruments # aux, characterized in that it consists of two gutters 4 of variable depth and height according to the desired anti-splash effect, added along the rear edge 1 of the blades 2, so that the edge of the gutters is an obstacle all along blades 2 to the projection of nail clippings and other waste during cutting.

2 - Device according to claim 1 characterized in ee that the anti-projection effect of the gutters 4, is supplemented by the recovery of trimmings and other waste by equipping each of the blades 2 of the instrument 3 with a gutter 4 of identical width, independently attached, the edge 6 of which is established in the same plane as the respective cutting edge 7 of each blade 2 considered, so that they are perfectly joined together when the cutting edge 7 of the 2 blades 2 coincides when this instrument is closed 3 they thus constitute a completely closed receptacle.

3 - Device according to claims 1 and 2 characterized in that the gutters 4peuvent be drawn directly from foundry or stamping during the development of each of the gripper branches 3 instead of being reported after final machining.

4 - Device according to claims 2 and 3 6 characterized in that the periphery 6 of the gutters 4 being sharpened in the same contiguous manner as the usual blades 2 of the instruments' which are fitted with them makes it possible to widen their possibility $ by making them reversible .

5 - Device according to claims 2 and 3 characterized in that the lips 6 of the gutters 4 can be also or unevenly higher 2 than the plane of the adjacent blades 2 and reccuvrar in part as do the blades of a pair of scissors can be used for the same purposes and make these tools' combined instruments: pliers and scissors.
