ABSTRACT:
A hair clipper has an elongated housing with a cutter head at its front and an elongated base cover connected thereto for movement between open and closed positions. The cutter head includes a stationary blade with a row of teeth and a movable blade with a like row of teeth which is driven to reciprocate relative to the stationary blade in hair shearing engagement therebetween. The teeth of the stationary and movable blades are cooperative to define a cutting edge. The base cover is formed at its front with a hair entrapping edge which extends substantially parallel with the cutting edge and which is kept spaced from the cutting edge in the open position and comes close to the cutting edge in the closed position. The hairs are introduced past the hair entrapping edge over the cutting edge in the open position, and subsequently seized between the hair entrapping edge and the cutting edge in the closed position for shearing at the cutting edge. An improvement resides in that the clipper includes an adjuster mechanism for adjusting the amount of the hairs to be cut in order to selectively perform the hair shearing at different modes, i.e., hair cutting mode and hair thinning modes.
