A reciprocating tool includes a motor, a reciprocating member, and a crank mechanism. The motor is disposed in a housing. The reciprocating member projects from the housing. The crank mechanism converts rotation of a rotation shaft of the motor into reciprocation of the reciprocating member. The crank mechanism rotates around an axis in a lateral direction by rotation transmission from the rotation shaft, and the crank mechanism includes a crank member having an eccentric pin, a connecting rod coupling the eccentric pin to the reciprocating member, and a balancer coupled to the eccentric pin, and the balancer is supported by the eccentric pin alone in the housing.

A handheld motorised food cutting device (10) is disclosed herein. The handheld motorised food cutting device (10) comprises a body (12) to be gripped in a user's hand so that the device (10) is supported by the hand, the body (12) having a passage (14) extending inwardly of the body (12) from an inlet opening (16) through which a food item to be processed is inserted for movement along the passage (14) in a processing direction (18); a blade assembly (30) moveably mounted in the body (12) for reciprocating movement along a cutting path that is transverse of said processing direction (18), with the blade assembly (30) being exposed to the passage (14) so as to be engaged by the food item moved in said processing direction (18); and a drive assembly (50) to drive said blade assembly (30) along said cutting path, wherein the body (12) provides a surface to abut a palm of said hand, with fingers of the hand extending at least partly about said body so that the body (12) is gripped, and wherein said processing direction (18) is transverse of said surface.

A pipe cutting machine, which includes a hole-type movable cutting die (6b), which is driven by a drive lever (7), by means of which circular movements with a continuously variable stroke (h) can be performed, an eccentrically shaped crank pin bearing (26) in an outer shaft (18), in which a crank pin (11), which is arranged eccentrically on a crank pin drive (23), is movably supported in relation to the outer shaft (18), the crank pin (11) being in operative connection with the drive lever (7).

A clamshell die cutting press (10) that can transition between an opening of three inches and 0.937 and anywhere in between without the requirement of filler plates. This is accomplished by attaching the connecting rod or arm (20) that extends between the fixed platen (14) and the movable platen (16) to the fixed platen through an eccentric bevel gear (26). The bevel gear (26) is driven by an electric motor (28) which allows the adjustment to be made with a push of a button, and by moving the bridge rocker plates (34 and 36) and bridge cam stands using linear slides and servo motors.

A tamper-evident food delivery packaging systems, methods of tamper-evident packaging of food for delivery, and apparatus for tamper-evident food packaging operate to form resilient self-fastening perforations through a packaging. A binding apparatus includes an anvil and a flipper plate. A cutter head includes a profile blade and a slot blade. A pusher is pivotably connected between the profile blade and the slot blade. The cutting apparatus moves in a reciprocal motion relative to the anvil while the flipper plate engages a pusher to pivot the pusher during the reciprocal motion.

A cutting device of a scissors type includes a fixed edge, a movable edge, and a support shaft configured to support the fixed edge and the movable edge to be capable of mutually rotating. A movable edge main body of the movable edge including a cut-off edge is cut into, centering on the support shaft, a fixed edge main body of the fixed edge including a cut-off edge. The cutting device includes a receiving member provided along at least an edge front side of the fixed edge main body and an edge front side of the movable edge main body and a pressing section configured to press at least one of the fixed edge main body and the movable edge main body to tilt in the opposite direction of the receiving member to be received by the receiving member.
