ABSTRACT:
A hair clipper includes a cutter head and a hair entrapping member which is movable toward and away from a cutting edge of the cutter head. The cutter head comprises a stationary blade with a toothed edge defining a cutting edge of the cutter head and a movable blade with a like toothed edge. The movable blade is driven to reciprocate in shearing engagement between the toothed edges of the stationary and movable blades for shearing hairs therebetween. The hair entrapping member is preferably in the form of a comb which is movable between an open position and a closed position. In the open position the comb is spaced away from the cutting edge of the cutter head, thus permitting hairs to enter between the comb and the cutting edge. In the closed position, the comb is held close to the cutting edge to thereby seize the hairs therebetween for shearing the hairs. Thus, the hair shearing can be made by guiding the comb across the skin of a head while maintaining the cutting edge spaced from the skin, avoiding a direct contact of the cutting edge with the head skin and preventing an accidental injury of the skin by the cutting head during the hair shearing operation.
