Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to scissors for cutting the slats of blinds, and particularly relates to slat cutting scissors for blinds used to cut slats for changing the width of manufactured blinds. It is something.

Traditionally, when trying to cut the slats of blinds,
Especially when trying to cut the slats of manufactured blinds to change the width, there are many inconveniences as there is no cutter specifically for slats and ordinary scissors are used. The work involved measuring the length of the slats with a ruler and cutting them, and rounding the corners of the slats after cutting, was extremely complicated.

Furthermore, even if there was a cutter specifically for slats, the operation was complicated and the cost was high, so it could not be used in general households.

The present invention improves these drawbacks and makes it possible to continuously cut slats to a certain length using a simple mechanism when cutting slats to change the width of manufactured blinds. The present invention aims to provide cutting scissors exclusively for blind slats.

The slat cutting scissors for blinds according to the present invention have a pair of movable arms and a fixed arm pivoted in an X shape, a movable blade and a fixed blade are formed at the tips, and the scissors for cutting the blinds are intended to cut the movable blade and the fixed blade. The scissors body for cutting the slat is bent into a shape corresponding to the shape of the edge of the slat, and one end is bent at a substantially right angle to form an abutting part against which the slat is abutted. This invention is characterized in that slits for receiving part of the fixed blade of the scissors body are provided at predetermined intervals, and the part of the fixed blade of the scissors body can be inserted and fixed into any slit.

Examples thereof will be described below based on the drawings.

Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing the scissors main body and the ruler part of the present invention removed, and Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing the present invention in use. Show ruler.

The scissors body 1 has a pair of movable arms 2 and a fixed arm 3 pivoted in an X-shape, and has a movable blade 2a and a fixed blade 3a formed at the tip. It is bent into a shape corresponding to the edge shape of a slat for a blind, and in the illustrated embodiment, it is formed into a substantially U-shape.

Further, the ruler 4 is made of a substantially rectangular substrate 6 having one end bent at a substantially right angle to form an abutment portion 5 against which a slat is abutted.

The fixed arm 3 of the scissors body 1 is formed with a protrusion 7 that is fixed to the base plate 6 of the ruler, and the base plate 6 is provided with the protrusion 7.
Slits 8 for fixing are provided at predetermined intervals.

According to the present invention, when cutting a slat, the length of the slat to be cut is matched with the distance from the abutment part 5 to an arbitrary slit 8, and the scissors are fixed to the slit 8 as shown in FIG. The protrusion 7 of the arm is inserted and fixed (fixed to the seventh slit in the case shown), and the scissors main body and the ruler are fixed.

Next, the end of the slat 9 to be cut is brought into contact with the butt part 5 of the ruler and the scissors are operated to cut the slat.

FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of the invention.

The embodiment shown in FIG. 3 is substantially the same as the embodiment described above, but similar parts are designated by the same numerals and their description will be omitted.

The difference between the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 and the above embodiment is as follows.
Guide pieces 10 for determining the position of the slats are provided on both edges of the substrate 6 of the ruler 4, and similar guide pieces 11 are provided on both edges of the abutting portion 5.

By providing the guide pieces 10.11 in this manner, the slats are held in a precise position during cutting of the slats, so that the slats can be cut correctly.

FIG. 4 shows a guide piece as shown in FIG. 3 formed as a separate piece from the ruler, and in the figure, reference numeral 12 indicates the ruler board 6.
The guide member 13 has the same width as the one shown in FIG.

This guide member 12 has a slit 14 formed therein, which is the same as the slit provided on the ruler board. When in use, the guide member 12 is placed on the ruler board 6, and the protrusion 7 of the scissor body is passed through the slit 14. In addition, by inserting the guide member 12 into the slit 8 of the ruler base plate 6, the guide member 12 is fixed on the ruler base plate 6: thereby, a guide piece 13 similar to the above guide piece 10 is fixed in a predetermined position. .

FIG. 5 shows a fixture 15 that fixes the ruler 4 and the scissors body 1 when the scissors body 1 is attached to the ruler 4 as described above.

This fixture 15 is provided with a fastening part 16 that tightens the protrusion 7 formed on the scissors body 1 on the back side of the base plate 6 of the ruler 4 after the protrusion 7 is inserted into the slit 8. , the scissors body 1 and the ruler 4 are fixedly connected.

However, if guide pieces 17 similar to the guide pieces 10 or 13 described above are formed on both edges of the fixture 4, when the main body 1 and the ruler 4 are combined, the guide pieces 17 can be formed on both edges of the ruler base plate 6. Piece 1
7.degree. 17 is fixed, and as a result, the slat can be oriented at the correct position when cutting the slat, as described above.

Since the slat cutting scissors of the present invention have the above-mentioned structure, it is possible to cut slats of a certain length one after another by simply fixing the scissors to any slit.
The edge of the slat that is to be cut by the scissors blade has a shape (approximately U-shaped in the illustrated example), and the slat corner can be rounded or cut.

Additionally, the scissors body and ruler are removable, making it compact and convenient to handle when not in use.
