DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS



[0018] The following illustrates the technical solution of the present disclosure in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0019] As shown in FIG. 1, a pair of scissors with curved blades, provided by the present disclosure, comprise a first cutter body 10, a second cutter body 20 and a pivot 30, the pivot 30 connects the first cutter body 10 and the second cutter body 20, so the first cutter body 10 and the second cutter body 20 pivot by taking the pivot 30 as the center of a circle, respectively to achieve opening and closing of the first cutter body 10 and the second cutter body 20 in order to complete a cutting process. Specifically, for conveniently describing, it is defined that one end of a cutter point of the scissors is the front end while one end of a handle of the scissors is the back end. The first cutter body 10 and the second cutter body 20 have a cutting part at the front end and a hand-hold part at the back end, respectively, the hand-hold part may be hook-shaped or ring-shaped in order to be convenient to operate, and a cushion is mounted on the hand-hold part in order to release an impact force when the first cutter body 10 and the second cutter body 20 are closed. The first cutter body 10 is provided with a plurality of cutting teeth 11, the plurality of cutting teeth 11 face the second cutter body 20 and are spaced side by side, a blade 12 is arranged on an end face, facing the second cutter body 20, of each cutting tooth 11, and a sharp blade is arranged on one side, facing the first cutter body 10, of the second cutter body 20, wherein the blades 12 and the sharp blade form a cutting state. Two ends of each blade 12 are a first blade tip 13 and a second blade tip 14, the first blade tip 13 is placed at a position close to the pivot 30, and the second blade tip 14 is placed at a position away from the pivot 30, that is, the first blade tip 13 is located at the back end while the second blade tip 14 is located at the front end. Furthermore, the first blade tip 13 is placed at a position away from the root of the cutting tooth 11, and the second blade tip 14 is placed at a position close to the root of the cutting tooth 11, that is, when the first cutter body 10 is horizontally placed, the first blade tip 13 is higher than the second blade tip 14. Additionally, a part of the blade 12 between the first blade tip 13 and the second blade tip 14 is designed to be of a concave curve shape, that is, the part of the blade 12 located between the first blade tip 13 and the second blade tip 14 is retracted toward the back of the corresponding cutter tooth 11 in order that the blade 12 has a certain curvature, and any parts of the blade 12 can form a shape of a bevel angle, so, when the hair is located on the blade 12 and the scissors are closed to cut the hair, the hair generates slight sliding on the blade 12, at this time, because the bevel angle prevents the hair from continuously sliding, the hair generates slight rotation on the blade 12 with the bevel angle and is still in contact with the blade 12, therefore, pull-cutting and roll-cutting effects will be generated in this cutting process, the hair can be easily cut off under a small power, the unsmooth feeling is reduced in the cutting process, and the problems of unsmooth operation and overpower caused by the unsmooth feeling of the existing scissors are solved; besides, the hair profiles are uniform, and the hair is not extruded and damaged.

[0020] In order to improve the cutting effect of the blade, an included angle between a hypothetical line joining the first blade tips 13 of the plurality of cutting teeth 11 and the blade 12 of each cutting tooth 11 is 20° to 45°. Specifically, the plurality of first blade tips 13 of the plurality of cutting teeth 11 are connected through a straight line to form a hypothetical cutting line, the first blade tip 13 and the second blade tip 14 of the single blade 12 are connected through a straight line to form a blade line of the blade 12, and an included angle between the cutting line and the blade line is designed to be 20° to 45°, preferably 24.5°, so, the sharp blade of the second cutter body 20 and the blades 12 of the first cutter body 10 have a larger included angle in the cutting process, the bevel angle of each blade 12 is more suitable for cutting, and uniform hair profiles will be obtained by a slight force.

[0021] Specifically, the curve-shape blade 12 may be formed by a whole arc-shaped blade, two sequentially connected arc-shaped blades, or two sequentially connected straight blades, the radian of the arc may be large or small, and whatever the curve forming manner is, any one part of the blade 12 has the bevel angle in order to achieve the cutting effect of the present disclosure.

[0023] When the blade 12 is formed by two sequentially connected arc-shaped blades, as shown in FIG. 3, a first blade surface 15, a second blade surface 16 and a third blade surface 17 are designed on the corresponding cutting tooth 11, these three blade surfaces are designed to be a bevel, respectively, a thinnest part of the first blade surface 15 is connected with a thickest part of the second blade surface 16 and a thickest part of the third blade surface 17 to form an intersection line, the intersection line is located at a diagonal line of an approximate quadrangle formed by the first blade surface 15, the second blade surface 16 and the third blade surface 17, that is, the intersection line smoothly extends from the first blade tip 13 to the root of the second blade tip 14, meanwhile, the second blade surface 16 is connected with the third blade surface 17 to form another intersection line, so that the first blade surface 15 forms an approximate triangle, the second blade surface 16 forms an approximate triangle, and the third blade surface 17 forms an approximate quadrangle. It is defined that the two arc-shaped blades are a first arc-shaped blade 121 and a second arc-shaped blade 122, the first blade tip 13 is located at the back end of the first arc-shaped blade 121 (one end close to the pivot 30), and the second blade tip 14 is located at the front end of the second arc-shaped blade 122 (one end away from the pivot 30). Similarly, the thickness of the cutting tooth 11 is decreased gradually from the cutter back to the blade part, therefore, the blade surface has a certain thickness to keep its firmness, and the blade 12 is thinner to facilitate cutting.

[0024] When the blade 12 is formed by two sequentially connected straight blades, as shown in FIG. 4, a first blade surface 15, a second blade surface 16 and a third blade surface 17 are designed on the corresponding cutting tooth 11, these three blade surfaces are designed to be a bevel, respectively, a thinnest part of the first blade surface 15 is connected with a thickest part of the second blade surface 16 and a thickest part of the third blade surface 17 to form an intersection line, the intersection line is located at a diagonal line of an approximate quadrangle formed by the first blade surface 15, the second blade surface 16 and the third blade surface 17, that is, the intersection line smoothly extends from the first blade tip 13 to the root of the second blade tip 14, meanwhile, the second blade surface 16 is connected with the third blade surface 17 to form another intersection line, so that the first blade surface 15 forms an approximate triangle, the second blade surface 16 forms a triangle, and the third blade surface 17 forms an approximate quadrangle.

Similarly, the thickness of the cutting tooth 11 is decreased gradually from the cutter back to the blade part, therefore, the blade surface has a certain thickness to keep its firmness, and the blade 12 is thinner to facilitate cutting. Furthermore, the second blade surface 16 may also be designed to be a bevel with a larger curvature, that is, an included angle is formed between the second blade surface 16 and the third blade surface 17 so as to avoid a problem of tooth locking generated between the sharp blade and the blade 12 when the scissors are closed by a large power. Preferably, the included angle between the first straight blade 123 and the second straight blade 124 is 165° so as to greatly avoid the tooth locking problem.
