Claims
- 1. A double scissors cutter comprising
- a pair of jaw members pivoted together on a pivot shaft at common jaw member ends, one of said jaw members having a through hole, the through hole having a rectangular aperture, the other jaw member being companionly configured with said aperture so that when said jaw members are closed in a scissors cutting movement said other jaw member can enter said through hole to bring a cutting edge carried thereon in cooperative cutting relationship with a cutting edge carried on the said one jaw member adjacent said aperture and thereby effect cutting of a piece from a work component in the course of said scissor movement, the through hole widening from a width thereof at said aperture to a larger width distal said aperture, the cutting edges carried on said one and said other jaw members each
- being U-shaped and comprising opposite long side cutting edge parts and a short cutting edge part joining common ends of said long side parts remote from the location of the pivoted ends of the jaw members, the long side cutting edge parts associated with said other jaw member disposing along opposite sides of other jaw member, and
- protuberant structure comprising a plurality of longitudinally aligned structure blocks carried on said other jaw member and extending laterally fully between said other jaw member opposite long side cutting edge parts and longitudinally substantially coextensively with the said long side cutting edge parts, each of said blocks being independently removably secured to said other jaw member, said protuberant structure protruding outwardly of a plane in which the cutting edges of the said other jaw member long side cutting edge parts lie, said protuberant structure having a longitudinal side contour profile of irregular undulating shape and comprising a bending member for applying a bending force to a work component part spanning the cutting edge long side cutting edge parts during the scissors cutting movement of the jaw members so as to deform a lateral expanse of said component part to a V-shaped configuration during cutting and thereby facilitating a passage of the cut piece through said through hole, a length of the structure block most proximal the pivoted ends of the jaw members being of substantially straight longitudinal side contour and less protruding than the structure of any other structure block to provide therewith enhanced initial gripping of the work component during cutting.
- 2. A double scissors cutter in accordance with claim 1 in which a transverse profile of the protuberant structure is one of a triangular shape, a convex shape and an inverted trapezoid.
- 3. A double scissors cutter comprising
- a first jaw member and a second jaw member, the two jaw members being pivoted at common ends of each on a pivot shaft and arranged such that an inner face side of the first jaw member faces an inner face side of the second jaw member,
- the first jaw member being elongated and carrying a U-shaped cutting edge at a lower perimeter part thereof, said first jaw member cutting edge comprising parallel spaced apart long side cutting edge parts and a short cutting edge part transversely joining common ends of the long side cutting edge parts, the short cutting edge part being located at a first jaw member end opposite the pivoted end of said first jaw member,
- the second jaw member being laterally wider than the first jaw member and having a rectangular through aperture at the inner face thereof, the second jaw member carrying a U-shaped cutting edge comprising parallel spaced apart side cutting edge parts and a short cutting edge part transversely joining common ends of said second jaw member long side cutting edge parts, the second jaw member having stepped notch structure adjacent said aperture in which said second jaw member long side and short side cutting edge part are received,
- the first jaw member entering the second jaw member aperture when the jaw members are pivoted to a closing condition to bring the cutting edges of the jaw members into close adjacency with each other for effecting scissors cutting of a workpiece gripped between the jaw members, and
- protuberant structure comprising a plurality of longitudinally aligned blocks carried on the inner face side of the first jaw member and extending laterally fully between the long side cutting edge parts of said first jaw member, the said blocks being independently removably secured to said first jaw member, at least a major portion of said protuberant structure extending beyond said first jaw member inner face in the direction of said second jaw member inner face, the protuberant structure having an irregular height longitudinal side profile, said protuberant structure comprising a bending member for applying a bending force to the workpiece concurrent with the scissors cutting thereof, a block length most proximal said pivot shaft having a straight run thereby to facilitate initial grip therewith of the workpiece, the first jaw member short cutting edge having a transverse face profile including an inverted Vee notch facing toward the second jaw member, the long side cutting edge parts carried on said first jaw member being elongated and having a first length most proximal said pivot shaft which is a first uniform height and a second length distal said pivot shaft which is of a second uniform height greater than the height of the first length, the short cutting edge part carried on said second jaw member having a transverse face profile which is rectangular, and the long side cutting edge parts carried on said second jaw member being elongated and of substantially uniform height.
