DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described. This reciprocating electric shaver comprises two blade heads 1 at the upper end of a main body 2 as shown in FIGS.
1 are arranged in parallel and parallel, and a trimmer blade 6 is attached to an upper end of a trimmer handle 60 which is arranged to be vertically movable along the surface of the main body 2.

The above-mentioned blade head 1 arranged at the upper end of the main body 2
As is clear from FIG. 6, the outer blade 12 is attached to the main body 2 via the frame 18 and the holding frame 15, and the outer blade 12 bent in an arch shape on the rectangular frame-shaped carrier 10 is provided. The two blade heads 1 and 1 are housed in a holding frame 15 having a rectangular frame shape, and as shown in FIG. Projected protrusion 1
A vertically long slot 16 formed in the holding frame 15
, Respectively, the two-blade heads 1 and 1 can float up and down independently of each other. In the figure, reference numeral 17 denotes a hook for detachably holding the holding frame 15 with respect to the frame 18.

On the other hand, a motor 3 and a pair of drivers 41 and 42 for converting the rotation of the motor 3 into reciprocating motion, a battery 30 and the like are disposed in the main body 2 via a mounting base 20. The movable blades 13 that are in sliding contact with the inner surface of the outer blades 12 in 1 and 1 are connected to connection cylinder portions 43 of the drivers 41 and 42 arranged in parallel and parallel via push-up springs 44, respectively.

The driving of both drivers 41 and 42 by the motor 3 is performed as follows. That is, as shown in FIG. 7 to FIG. 9, an eccentric shaft 32 projects from the output shaft of the motor 3 via the base 31, and projects from the eccentric shaft 32 and the driver 41. The pin 46 is connected with the link 35. A base 33 is fixed to the upper end of the eccentric shaft 32, and the eccentric shaft 3 further protruded from the base 33.
4 is connected to a pin 47 projecting from the driver 42 by a link 36, and the motor 3 drives the two eccentric shafts 32,
When the link 34 rotates, the links 35 and 36 are connected to the mounting base 20.
The driving elements 41 and 42, which are easily bent in only one direction due to the presence of the elastic leg pieces 410 and 420 fixed at both ends by screws 39 and resilient, are caused to reciprocate.

At this time, the eccentric shafts 32 and 34 are connected to the motor 3
Are provided at symmetrical positions sandwiching the rotation center O, that is, at a position shifted by 180 °. As is clear from FIG. 1, the pins 47 of one driver 42 are not projected directly below, Of the driver 41 by protruding from the piece 421 that is also recessed below the driver 41 of the
The pin 46 protruding from just below, the rotation center O, and the pin 47 are arranged on a straight line parallel to the reciprocating direction X of both the drivers 41 and 42. As a result, both drivers 4
1 and 42 in opposite directions, that is, both drivers 41,
The phase of the reciprocating motion of the motor 42 is 180 ° different from each other so that the vibrations cancel each other. Further, the vibration in the direction Y orthogonal to the reciprocating motion X does not occur in both the drivers 41 and 42, and furthermore, the eccentricity The value of twice the amount of eccentricity of the shafts 32, 34 is the reciprocating stroke of the drivers 41, 42. The links 35 and 36 may be formed integrally with the drivers 41 and 42 as having elasticity.

The flat portions 310 and 330 provided on the side surfaces of the bases 31 and 33 clarify the directionality of the bases 310 and 330, thereby facilitating the assembling accuracy. Base 31
Is formed as a pressing surface when the blocks of the bases 31 and 32 and the link 35 are press-fitted to the output shaft of the motor 3 so that the press-fitting can be performed without pressing the base 33. That's what we do. The link 36 is attached to the pin 47 side and is prevented from falling off by heat sealing at the tip of the pin 47, thereby improving the assemblability.

The provision of the piece 411 that covers the piece 421 on the driver 41 side increases the creepage distance from the upper surface opening of the main body 2 through which the connecting cylinders 43 penetrate to the eccentric shaft 34. In addition, it is possible to prevent the packing 70 from dropping to the driving elements 41 and 42 side when cleaning shavings,
It also prevents the sound generated from 5, 36 from leaking to the outside. The walls 412, 4 arranged on the sides of the links 35, 36 by hanging vertically from the respective drivers 41, 42.
Reference numeral 22 is also for preventing this sound leakage. Note that a window 413 provided on the wall 412 is a viewing window for convenience during assembly. The rigidity of the drivers 41 and 42 is increased by forming the walls 412 and 422 integrally with the end walls of the drivers 41 and 42 on which the leg pieces 410 and 420 are provided.

Further, a screw 3 in each of the drivers 41 and 42 is provided.
9, both ends of the mounting base 20 and the inner surface of the main body 2 are not only partially overlapped with each other up and down, but also the projections 416 and 426 and the recesses 417 and 427 are engaged with each other. To prevent rattling of each other, and protrusions 201 and
02 is a recess 417, 428 in each driver 41, 42.
And the direction of engagement coincides with the direction in which the drivers 41 and 42 are assembled to the mounting base 20, so that the positioning and fixing of the two drivers 41 and 42 are easy. Has become.

In mounting the motor 3 on the mounting base 20, a vibration isolator 80 made of an elastic material is fixedly covered on the surface of the motor 3 as shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, a bearing metal 301 for receiving the rotating shaft 300 of the motor 3 and the motor case 30
2 with an elastic body 303 made of rubber or the like interposed therebetween.
Even if the rotating shaft 300 receives a lateral load, its deflection is reduced by the elastic body 30.
3, so that the motor 3 itself also has a soundproofing effect. As described above, the drivers 41, 4
Since the vibration caused by the reciprocating drive of the motor 2 is canceled, the sound and vibration generated by the motor 3 itself are hardly transmitted to the main body 2 by utilizing the fact that the motor 3 does not need to be firmly fixed. That's why.

5 to 7, reference numeral 25 denotes a metal fitting for receiving a hinge plate 26 attached to the frame 18, and 27 denotes a hinge plate 26 having one end rotatably connected to the main body 2 by the hinge plate 26.
