Assignee:

Rovcal, Inc. - Madison WI

International Classification:

A47L 5/14
A47L 7/00

US Classification:

015301000, 015316100

Abstract:

In a cleaning system for cleaning hair clippings from the interior space of an electric shaver, a shaver support is provided for supporting the electric shaver during operation of the cleaning system. A pressure vessel defines a source of cleaning gas for cleaning hair clippings from the interior of the shaver and is in fluid communication with a gas delivery assembly that receives cleaning gas from the pressure vessel. The gas delivery assembly comprises at least one nozzle assembly configured and arranged for directing cleaning gas received from the pressure vessel to flow directly into the interior space of the shaver. In one embodiment the pressure vessel is cartridge that is removeable from the cleaning system for refilling or replacement.

Assignee:

Fiskars Inc. - Madison WI

International Classification:

B26F 114

US Classification:

83588

Abstract:

A punch tool for use by children is disclosed. The punch tool includes a removable die and punch assembly that can be inserted and removed from a base portion to permit the punching of holes having a variety of configurations. A cap is rigidly secured to the base and has an indented portion so sheets of paper can be inserted between the base and the cap. The retainer cap includes an opening in which an actuator button is slidably mounted and against which the punch is biased by a spring. Thus, a user can slide a sheet of paper between the base and the retainer cap and punch a hole therethrough by pressing the actuator button with sufficient force to overcome the spring bias.

Appl. No.:

Inventors:

Charles E. Quinn - Sun Prairie WI

Assignee:

Fiskars Inc. - Madison WI

International Classification:

B26B 108

US Classification:

30162

Abstract:

A utility knife includes a hollow handle, for retractably housing a blade mounted on a blade carrier. The blade carrier is pivotally coupled to an actuator. A user can extend or retract the blade through a front slot by depressing an actuating button and sliding the actuator along an actuator glideway and blade carrier along a carrier glideway to a desired position. Once in the desired position a resilient member on the actuator urges protrusions on the actuator into engagement with detents provided within the handle. The blade carrier glideway is provided in an non-parallel orientation with respect to the actuator glideway to obtain a beneficial force transmission to the actuator that tends to maintain engagement between the actuator and the detents. A blade guard at least partially surrounds the front slot to resist upward forces on the: blade during cutting, while a carrier guard contacts a portion of the cutting edge of the blade within the handle to protect the carrier from damage by the blade. The blade carrier and the actuator include abutment surfaces for effectively transmitting axial compression forces on the blade from the carrier to the actuator without exerting excessive force on the joint between the carrier and the actuator.
