Abstract (en)

Hair clippers (1) include stationary blade (21), movable blade (22), main body (10), and dial (60). Guide groove (61) is formed in dial (60). Movable blade (22) slides relative to stationary blade (21) in a longer direction of main body (10) by moving boss (71) inserted into guide groove (61). A slide mechanism includes first spring (27) that pushes movable blade (22) against stationary blade (21), and second spring (90) that applies force to boss (71) in a direction opposite to first spring (27). Characteristics of first and second springs (27 and 90) are set such that a magnitude relation of the forces to boss (71) applied by first spring (27) and second spring (90) switches with a change in relative positions of guide groove (61) and boss (71). Accordingly, the hair clippers with pleasant operability can be offered.
