Abstract

A novel nail clipper equipped with a light source is comprised of including but not limited to, two elongated spring arms, a biasing lever, a pivot pin, a light source, an on/off switch and a battery. The two spring arms are rigidly secured at one end and diverge at the other end. Two cutting edges are developed at the ends. The spring arms are pressed together in opposition to their inherent resilient force by a downward pressure on the lever. Upon the downward pressure applied by lever, cutting edges cooperatively engage to clip the nail. The biasing lever is pivoted at one end, to the pin extending through the aligned openings formed by the spring arms and is rotatably mounted so that the lever may be turned 180 degrees and is then put in its stored position for compactness. The light source is installed, including but not limited to, between the two spring arms, on the surface of the biasing lever, on the front surface of upper spring arm and in the pivot pin. The novel light source equipped nail clipper of this invention enables a safe nail cutting as well as picking out small pieces of glass, metal chips and a thorn of wood stuck in the skin all in a dark environment.

    • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • It is the purpose of this invention to provide a novel nail clipper for safe nail cutting and picking out small pieces of metal and of wood stuck in a skin, all in a dark environment. The nail clipper of this invention is comprised of, including but not limited to, two elongated spring arms, a biasing lever, a pivot pin, a light source, an on/off switch and a battery. The two spring arms are rigidly secured at one end and diverge at the other end. Two cutting edges are developed at these ends. The spring arms are pressed together in opposition to their inherent resilient force by a downward pressure on lever. Upon the downward pressure applied by the lever, cutting edges cooperatively engage to clip the nail. The biasing lever is pivoted at one end, to the pin extending through aligned openings formed in spring arms and is rotatably mounted so that the lever may be turned 180 degrees and put in its stored position for compactness. The light bulb is installed, including but not limited to, between the two spring arms, on the surface of the biasing lever, in the pivot pin and on the front surface of the upper spring arm.[0012]

When a user switches on the light source (4), any pin of prior arts will make a shadow unless the pin (3) has a hole (11) at the center.
  • FIG. 4 is a side view of the biasing lever ([0034] 2) of another embodiment of the invention where a light source (12) is inserted in the front head (13) of the lever (2). FIG. 5 is an expended drawing of the path of the wires through the lever pin (14) and the pivot pin (3) of the nail/toe cutter of this invention. The light source (12) is connected to the rechargeable battery (8) via wires (5), which pass through the lever pin (14), holes (3-1), (3-2) and the pivot pin (3). The head part (13) of the biasing lever (2) is thickened for the space of the light source (12). The groove (16) provides a space for the wires (5) to be buried therein when the nail/toe clipper is not in use. FIG. 6 is an over view of the upper spring arm (6U) having a hole (17) for allowing the light source (12) inserted in the head (13) of the biasing lever (2) enter into the main body when not in use. FIG. 7 is a side view of the nail/toe clipper which has light source (12) inside of the head (13) of the biasing lever (2). The thickened head (13) and the light source (12) locate under the upper spring arm (6U) when the clipper of this invention (1) is not used.
  • FIG. 8 is a side view of another embodiment of the biasing lever ([0035] 18) of this invention where a light source (19) is inserted in a pocket (20) on the lever (18). FIG. 9 is a side view of the nail/toe clipper (21); the lever (18) of FIG. 8 is equipped thereon. Connection of the light source (19) to the battery (8) is the same as that shown in FIG. 5. In this case the wire (5) comes into the hole (21) of FIG. 5.
  • FIG. 10 is a perspective drawing of one of the embodiment of pivot pin ([0036] 22) of this invention where a light source (23) is inserted inside of the pin.

  • Two additional holes, ([0037] 15-2) and (15-3), are developed just below of the top end of the pivot pin (22) for engaging of the light source (23). FIG. 12 and FIG. 13 is a perspective view of the nail/toe clipper having light source (23) inserted in one of the holes (15-2) and (15-3). FIG. 12 is a perspective view of the clipper when not in use. The light source (23) faces to the body of the clipper (1). FIG. 13 is a perspective view of the clipper (1) when in use. The light source (23) faces to the front direction.
  • FIG. 14 is a cross sectional view of another embodiment of the pivot pin ([0038] 24) of this invention where a light source (25) is partly inserted inside of the pin (24). FIG. 15 is a side view of nail/toe clipper (26) having light source inserted pin of FIG. 12. The light source (25) is inserted in a hole (27) at the center of the pivot pin (24). FIG. 16 is a side view of lever pin for the nail/toe clipper of the FIG. 15 to allow 360-degree rotation of the lever without rotating the lower part of the pin. FIG. 17 is an over view of the lever pin of FIG. 16. As shown in FIG. 15, the lower part of the pivot pin (24L) should not rotate because of the light bulb (25) and wires (5). The upper part of the pivot pin (24U) has a partially blocked holes (28) and (30). A neck (29), extended from the lower part of the pivot pin (24L) is engaged into the hole (30). Two lever ends (28), extended from the biasing lever (2), are engaged through the holes (28) developed at the upper part of the pivot pin (24U).
  • FIG. 18 is an over view of the nail/toe clipper of another embodiment of this invention having a light bulb ([0039] 31) inserted lever pin (32). The lever pin (32) is a hollow tube large enough to insert a light source (31). The pivot pin (33) also is a hollow tube like shown in FIG. 10.
  • FIG. 19 is an over view of the nail/toe clipper of the third embodiment of this invention having a light bulb ([0040] 34) installed through the front face (blade) (35) of upper spring arm (6U).
