DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

Embodiment 1

[0024] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, this embodiment provides a sandwich structured cutter, which is formed by two fixed blades 1, 3 and a reciprocating blade 2. The reciprocating blade 2 is sandwiched between the two fixed blades 1, 3. Edges of front ends of the two fixed blades 1, 3 are provided with a row of comb teeth 11, 31 respectively, and an inner surface of each comb tooth contacting the reciprocating blade 2 forms an acute angle with a lateral edge of the comb tooth. An edge of a front end of the reciprocating blade 2 is provided with a row of cutter teeth 21 having cutting edges. The edges of the front ends of the two fixed blades 1, 3 are overlapped with the edge of the front end of the reciprocating blade 2. Herein, the edges of the front ends of the two fixed blades 1, 3 are overlapped with each other, the edge of the front end of the reciprocating blade 2 is sandwiched between the edges of the front ends of the two fixed blades 1, 3 and is not exposed out of the edge of the front end of any one of the fixed blades 1, 3. The reciprocating blade 2 can be driven by a drive mechanism matched with the cutter, so that the edge of the front end of the reciprocating blade 2 makes reciprocating motion between the edges of the front ends of the two reciprocating blades 1, 3; during the reciprocating process, trimming edges are formed between the edge of the cutting tooth 21 of the reciprocating blade 2, that is, the cutting edge, and the acute angle of each comb tooth 11 or 31 of the fixed blade 1 or 3, so as to trim hairs.

[0025] A cross section of the cutting tooth 21 of the reciprocating blade 2, which is perpendicular to the length direction of the reciprocating blade, is of a parallelogram, upper and lower opposite sides of the parallelogram align and close to corresponding inner surfaces of the comb teeth 11, 31 of the two fixed blades 1, 3 respectively. Two opposite acute angles of the parallelogram serve as cutting edges.

[0026] All of the cutting teeth 21 of the reciprocating blade 2 are arranged in a same direction. Specifically, each of the cutting teeth 21 of the reciprocating blade 2 is arranged to be perpendicular to the edge of the front end of the reciprocating blade 2.

[0027] Comb teeth 11, 31 of the two fixed blades 1, 3 are in up down one-to-one correspondence, forming a teeth overlapped structure.

Embodiment 2

[0028] This embodiment provides another sandwich structured cutter. As shown in FIG. 4, this embodiment is similar to the Embodiment 1, with the only difference that the two fixed blades 10, 30 are of a teeth staggered structure, that is, the comb teeth 110 of one fixed blade 10 are overlapped with the gaps between the comb teeth 310 of the other fixed blade 30 in a one-to-one correspondence manner. The cutting teeth 210 of the reciprocating blade 20 all are sandwiched between the comb teeth 110, 310 of the fixed blades.

Embodiment 3

[0029] This embodiment provides yet another sandwich structured cutter. As shown in FIG. 5, this embodiment is similar to the Embodiment 1, with the only difference that every two adjacent cutting teeth 2100 of the reciprocating blade are inclined towards each other, such that, on upper and lower ends of the every two adjacent cutting teeth 2100, the cutting teeth are close to each other on one end while the cutting teeth are far away from each other on the other end to form a trapezoid construction.

Embodiment 4

[0030] This embodiment provides still yet another sandwich structured cutter. This embodiment is similar to the Embodiment 2, that is, the two fixed blades are of a teeth staggered structure, while the structure of the reciprocating blade is the same as or similar to that of the Embodiment 3, that is, every two adjacent cutting teeth of the reciprocating blade are inclined towards each other, such that, on upper and lower ends of the every two adjacent cutting teeth, the cutting teeth are close to each other on one end while the cutting teeth are far away from each other on the other end to form a trapezoid construction.

[0031] In the above Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, all of the cutting teeth of the reciprocating blade are arranged in a same direction, besides the above condition that each of the cutting teeth of the reciprocating blade is arranged to be perpendicular to the edge of the front end of the reciprocating blade, a condition as follows may exist that each of the cutting teeth of the reciprocating blade is arranged to be inclined in a same direction at a same angle with respect to the edge of the front end of the reciprocating blade.

[0032] It should be noted that, for the ordinary skill in this field, multiple improvements and modifications may be made without departing from the idea of the disclosure, and these improvements and modifications are intended to be included in the scope of protection of the disclosure. Therefore, the scope of protection of the patent of the disclosure should be based on claims appended herein.
