Abstract
A device for trimming that is safe for the operator, is lightweight (hand held), and is configured such that the trimming head does not overheat. In one embodiment, it is comprised of a trimming head and in a second embodiment, it is comprised of a shank and a trimmer head combination, the air holes being configured through the trimming head.
Description
- This invention deals primarily with a device that is hand held and which is used to trim various objects, for example, the toe nails of animals. The device is mechanized, driven by a motor, such as the well-known Dremel® equipment, or an electric drill. The component makeup of the instant device allows for the safe trimming of various objects.
- Typically, those working in the industry of grooming pets have used scissors and anvil type clippers to trim toe nails, but quite often, the same individuals use hand held, abrasive devices for the same job.
- In recent times, some of those in the industry have turned to hand held trimming devices that are mechanized rotary tools that hold abrasive tools. There are many problems associated with such hand held rotary devices in that they can overheat and cause discomfort to the animal. In addition, such devices can entangle long hair on animals, again at the discomfort of, if not, injury to the animals being groomed. In addition, rotary tools known in the prior art use beveled trimmer heads or purely circular trimming heads and these configurations tend to displace the nails while trimming.
- One such device can be found in U.S. Pat. No. 4,654,334 issued to Su on Aug. 8, 1989 in which there is provided a power supply, a driving means, a switch means, a trimming means and a frame means for trimming nails.
- Another device can be found in U.S. Pat. No. 7,428,881 that issued to Drelinger on Sep. 30, 2008 in which there is provided a device that is a rotary device that has a shroud and an opening in the shroud to allow an animal's nail to be put through the opening and shaped by the rotary grinder.
- Drelinger discloses his invention again in U.S. Pat. No. 7,568,451.
- Thus, what is disclosed and claimed herein is a trimmer head, wherein the trimmer head has a forward end that has an outside edge, a rearward end, and an outer surface. The head has a long axis and is circular in configuration. The head contains on the outer surface, an abrasive material, the outside edge of the forward end is comprised of a radial configuration.
- In another embodiment, there is a shank fixedly mounted essentially at a center point in a surface of the rearward end of the trimmer head. The shank comprises a near end and a distal end, wherein the near end is thicker in cross-section than the distal end. The distal end is configured to fit a motorized driving mechanism, the motorized driving mechanism not forcing part of this invention.
- In additional embodiments, there is a trimmer head wherein, in addition, there is a plurality of through holes through the trimmer head, paralleling the long axis; a trimmer head wherein, in addition, there is a plurality of through holes angled from the long axis;
