BLADE SET, HAIR CUTTING APPLIANCE, AND RELATED MANUFACTURING METHOD
A stationary blade for a blade set of a hair cutting appliance is described. The stationary blade is arranged to be moved through hair in a moving direction to cut hair. The stationary blade includes: a first wall portion arranged to serve as a skin facing wall when in operation; a second wall portion at least partially offset from the first wall portion; and at least one toothed leading edge comprising a plurality of teeth and being jointly provided by the first wall portion and the second wall portion. The first wall portion and the second wall portion are connected at a frontal end of the at least one toothed leading edge to provide tips of the teeth. A blade set including the stationary blade and a moveable cutting blade are also described. A method of fabricating a blade set is also described.
Attachment comb, cutting head and hair cutting appliance
The present disclosure relates to an attachment comb (70), particularly a skin protecting comb, for a blade set (22) of a cutting head (20) of a hair cutting appliance (10), the attachment comb (70) comprising a supporting frame (72), a plurality of comb teeth (74) that are arranged in a series (82, 84) and that define a skin contact zone at a top side (124) thereof, wherein the teeth (74) extend from the supporting frame (72) and comprise rounded tips (116, 118) at frontal ends thereof, wherein the teeth (74) are non-uniform along the series (82, 84) and comprise two outer lateral teeth (76) that define lateral ends of the series (82, 84), and central teeth (78) arranged therebetween, and wherein at the lateral teeth (76) a lateral teeth tip radius (R.sub.tl) is present that is greater than a tip radius (R.sub.tc) of the central teeth (78). The disclosure further relates to a cutting head (20) and to a hair cutting appliance (10).
Hair cutting device
A hair cutting device having a cutting unit, the cutting unit including a blade carrier carrying a cutting blade that has cutting teeth; a guard blade that has guard teeth. The blade is movable along the blade carrier relative to the cutting blade within a guard length range between a first guard position corresponding to a shortest hair cutting length of the cutting unit and a second guard position corresponding to the longest hair cutting length of the cutting unit. The blade carrier includes a stop configured to prevent movement of the guard blade past the first guard position and outside of the guard length range, thereby preventing the cutting length from being below the shortest cutting length.

HAIR CUTTING DEVICE
One or more embodiments of a hair cutting device which includes a hair cutting blade and a controller. The hair cutting blade includes a plurality of component blades configured to cut by moving in a first direction. A first component blade of the plurality of component blades is arranged to move independently from another component blade of the plurality of component blades in a second direction which is not parallel to the first direction. The controller is configured to control the hair cutting blade including movement of the first component blade of the plurality of component blades in the second direction.

Hair Clipper with Tapered Radial Handle
A haircutter handle is described that has upper and lower housings. The upper housing and lower housing join to form a circumvoluted and/or spiraled exterior surface. The handle narrows and extends axially from a blade end to a handle or gripping end opposite the blade. The blade has a cutter or upper blade that oscillated over the lower blade to cut hair. The handle has a reduction taper that facilitates gripping and/or handling the handle. The taper also orients the motor and battery so that the center of gravity is positioned within the palm of the user's hand when gripping the handle. The blade end of the handle has a width and/or height greater that are than a width and/or height at the handle end. The reduction in height and/or width dimensions define a taper. In some embodiments, the width tapers more than the height tapers to facilitate gripping handle about the center of gravity.
MULTI-PIECE HAIR CLIPPER CONSTRUCTION WITH METAL OUTER HOUSING
A hair clipper is provided, including a chassis having upper and lower chassis portions defining an enclosed interior chamber, said upper and lower chassis portions configured for being secured together; and an outer housing including upper and lower housing portions constructed and arranged for enclosing the chassis as the housing portions are secured together such that the interior chamber is isolated from the housing.

Hair Clipper with Tapered Rectangular Handle
A haircutter handle is described that has upper and lower housings. The upper housing and lower housing join to form a pliable exterior surface. The handle narrows/tapers as it extends axially from a blade end to a gripping end opposite the blade. The blade has an upper oscillatory blade that oscillates over a stationary lower blade to cut hair. The handle's taper facilitates grasping by locating the motor and battery so that the center of gravity is located within the palm of the user's hand. The width and/or height at the blade end is greater than at the handle or grip end, and the reduction in height and/or width dimensions define the taper to locate the user's hand relative to the center of gravity. In some embodiments, the width tapers more than the height tapers to facilitate gripping handle about the center of gravity.
