The present disclosure relates to the technical field of garden equipment, and more particularly, to a pair of electric scissors and a control system thereof.
In a garden maintenance process, it is necessary to trim shrubs, trees, and other plants. Electric scissors are widely used in gardening pruning. For existing electric scissors, for example, China patent No. CN208924729U discloses an anti-overheating structure for electric garden scissors. The existing electric scissors have good heat absorption and insulation layers, which reduce heat transferred from a motor to a grip as much as possible. At the same time, an independent exhaust fan is used. The exhaust fan rotates independently. Therefore, compared to an exhaust fan connected to a motor shaft, this exhaust fan can reduce the work done by the motor and reduce a certain amount of heat generated by the motor.
Although the existing electric scissors can well dissipate heat, when the electric scissors are used to trim branches, a cutting edge of a blade may be worn in different extents. However, when the degree of wear on the cutting edge has a significant impact on next cutting, it may cause the blade to be unable to cut branches and leaves. In this case, a driving source in the electric scissors may be damaged. Therefore, it is necessary to replace the blade of the electric scissors. The blade is connected to a drive mechanism in the electric scissors through a screw, so it is more troublesome to replace the blade.
Therefore, in response to this situation, it is urgent to propose electric scissors and a control system thereof to overcome the shortcomings in current practical applications.
The present disclosure aims to solve the problem that it is more troublesome to replace the blade when a blade of existing electric scissors needs to be replaced.
A pair of electric scissors and a control method thereof, provided according to the present disclosure, adopt the following technical solutions:
A pair of electric scissors and a control system thereof include a shell, a fixed blade, a movable blade, a drive mechanism, and an actuator; the fixed blade is arranged on the shell; the movable blade is rotatably connected to the fixed blade; the drive mechanism is arranged on the shell; the drive mechanism is connected to the movable blade; the drive mechanism is configured to cause the movable blade to rotate relative to the fixed blade, and the movable blade or the fixed blade is connected to the drive mechanism in a plugging fit manner to achieve detachable connection between the movable blade and the fixed blade; the actuator is mounted on the shell; and the actuator is connected to the drive mechanism.
By the adoption of the above technical solution, when the electric scissors are used to trim branches and leaves, if a cutting edge of the movable blade or the fixed blade is significantly worn, the fixed blade and the movable blade need to be replaced. Due to the pluggable connection of the fixed blade and the movable blade to the drive mechanism, the fixed blade and the movable blade are pulled out and removed, so that the replacement of the fixed blade and the movable blade can be completed. According to this design method, screw connection is not required during the replacement. This makes the replacement of the movable blade and the fixed blade more convenient. Moreover, only the fixed blade and movable blade are replaced, which can also reduce the cost of blade replacement.
Preferably, an accommodating cavity is arranged in the shell; the drive mechanism includes a rotating shaft, a rotating plate, and a bevel gear; the rotating shaft is arranged in the accommodating cavity; positions, far from cutting edges of the fixed blade and the movable blade, on the fixed blade and the movable blade sleeve the rotating shaft; the rotating plate rotatably sleeves the rotating shaft; one end of the rotating plate extends out of the accommodating cavity; the end, extending out of the accommodating cavity, of the rotating plate is provided with a limiting column; one end, far from the limiting column, of the rotating plate is provided with teeth; the bevel gear is in drive connection with the actuator; the bevel gear is engaged with the teeth of the rotating plate; the movable blade is provided with a limiting slot; and the limiting slot is configured to plug the limiting column to achieve detachable connection between the movable blade (3) and the rotating plate (43) through a cooperation between the limiting slot (31) and the limiting column (431).
By the adoption of the above technical solution, when the electric scissors are used, the actuator may start to work to rotate the bevel gear. Due to the engagement between the bevel gear and the teeth on the rotating plate, the rotating plate rotates along an axis of the rotating shaft. Due to the cooperation between the limiting column and the limiting slot, the movable blade is driven to rotate in a reciprocating manner relative to the fixed blade, thus achieving the function of the electric scissors for cutting the branches and leaves. When the fixed blade and the movable blade need to be replaced, only the movable blade and the fixed blade are pulled out from the rotating shaft. At this time, the limiting column and the limiting slot may be separated, and the replacement of the fixed blade and the movable blade can be achieved.
Preferably, the shell is provided with two limiting blocks at an opening of the accommodating cavity; the two limiting blocks are respectively arranged on two sides of the opening of the accommodating cavity; and the two limiting blocks are configured to limit the fixed blade.
By the adoption of the above technical solution, due to the arrangement of the limiting blocks, when the fixed blade and the movable blade are mounted on the rotating plate, one side, far from the cutting edge of the fixed blade, of the fixed blade may be located between the two limiting blocks, and the two limiting blocks will limit the rotation of the fixed blade, so that the fixed blade can be fixed on the rotating shaft. Thus, it is possible to avoid, as much as possible, a phenomenon of an offset of the fixed blade caused when the movable blade rotates under the action of the drive mechanism.
Preferably, a structural form of the actuator is a driving motor; the bevel gear is in drive connection with an output shaft of the driving motor; the drive mechanism further includes a connecting frame; the connecting frame is arranged in the accommodating cavity; the rotating shaft and the limiting blocks are arranged in the connecting frame; and the connecting frame is connected to the driving motor.
By the adoption of the above technical solution, due to the arrangement of the connecting frame, the driving motor can be connected to an inner wall of the accommodating cavity through the connecting frame. When the driving motor has an offset, the connecting frame can also move synchronously to ensure that the bevel gear is always engaged with the teeth on the rotating plate, so as not to affect the rotation of the movable blade relative to the fixed blade.
Preferably, the shell is provided with a knife case; the knife case and the shell can form a cavity; the knife case is provided with a through hole; the movable blade and the fixed blade penetrate through the through hole; a stopper is arranged on the knife case; when the knife case is mounted on the shell, the stopper can resist against one side surface, far from the movable blade, of the fixed blade; and the movable blade and the fixed blade are removed by only disconnecting the knife case from the shell, instead of using other tools to assist in the removal.
By the adoption of the above technical solution, due to the arrangement of the knife case, when the knife case is mounted on the shell, the stopper on the knife case can resist against the side, far from the movable blade, of the fixed blade. The stopper may stop the fixed blade, which can avoid the fixed blade and the movable blade from sliding on the rotating shaft as much as possible. Meanwhile, the portion, extending out of the accommodating cavity, of the rotating plate, the rotating shaft, and a rotating center of the movable blade are all arranged in the cavity formed between the knife case and the shell, which can prevent harmful substances such as dust from corroding the rotating plate, the movable blade, and the fixed blade.
Preferably, the shell is provided with a clamping hole; the clamping hole is communicated to the accommodating cavity; the knife case is provided with a clamping piece; the clamping piece resists against an inner wall of the accommodating cavity through the clamping hole; the clamping piece has an acting force approaching the inner wall of the accommodating cavity, and the knife case is provided with a release hole; a release block is arranged on one side surface, resisting against a side wall of the accommodating cavity, of the clamping piece; the release block passes through the release hole; and the release block is pressed by a person.
By the adoption of the above technical solution, due to the arrangement of the clamping piece and the clamping hole, when the knife case is mounted on the shell, the clamping piece may extend into the accommodating cavity through the clamping hole. At the same time, the clamping piece may have the acting force towards the inner wall of the accommodating cavity under the own action of the clamping piece, so that the clamping piece always has a predetermined acting force to resist against the accommodating cavity, and the knife case is mounted on the shell more stably. Meanwhile, due to the arrangement of the release hole and the release block, when the fixed blade and the movable blade need to be replaced, the release block is pressed to separate the clamping piece from the inner wall of the accommodating cavity, and then the knife case can be pulled out, so that the fixed blade and the movable blade can be replaced.
Preferably, an illuminating lamp is arranged on one side, close to the movable blade, of the shell.
By the adoption of the above technical solution, due to the arrangement of the illuminating lamp, when branches and leaves are cut in a relatively dark environment, the illuminating lamp can serve as a light source, making it easier for a user to see things more clearly, thereby facilitating the user to cut the branches and the leaves.
Preferably, a control module is arranged in the accommodating cavity; the control module is electrically connected to the driving motor; the control module is configured to control a speed of the driving motor; a button is arranged on the shell; the button is electrically connected to the control module; and the button is configured to change a maximum opening and closing angle between the movable blade and the fixed blade.
By the adoption of the above technical solution, the button is pressed, so that the control module sends a command to the driving motor to change the speed of the output shaft of the driving motor. Therefore, the number of rotations of a screw rod may change within the same time, which can change a sliding distance of a nut on the screw rod, thereby changing the maximum angle between the movable blade and the fixed blade during rotation. Furthermore, the maximum opening and closing angle between the movable blade and the fixed blade on the electric scissors can be adjusted.
The present disclosure further provides a control system of electric scissors, including the above electric scissors.
In conclusion, the present disclosure includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

The present disclosure is further described in detail below in combination with accompanying drawings 1-6.
An embodiment of the present disclosure discloses a pair of electric scissors. Referring to

Meanwhile, two limiting blocks 411 are arranged on the connecting frame 41. The two limiting blocks 411 are arranged at the opening of the accommodating cavity 11. When the fixed blade 2 sleeves the rotating shaft 42, one side, far from the cutting edge of the fixed blade, of the fixed blade 2 may be located between the two limiting blocks 411, so that when the drive mechanism 4 drives the movable blade 3 to rotate, the side, far from the cutting edge of the fixed blade, of the fixed blade 2 may be fixed under the action of the two limiting blocks 411, and the fixed blade 2 may not have an offset in the rotation. Thus, it will not affect the cutting effect of the electric scissors.
In addition, in this embodiment, a structural form of the actuator 5 is a driving motor 51. An output shaft of the driving motor 51 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the bevel gear 44 to drive the rotation plate 43 to rotate. In other embodiments, the rotation of the bevel gear 44 can be achieved through other forms. The driving motor 51 is connected to the connecting frame 41 through a bolt, which can keep the rotating plate 43 at a relative position with the driving motor 51, to ensure that the bevel gear 44 is always engaged with the teeth on the rotating plate 43, so as not to affect the rotation of the movable blade 3 relative to the fixed blade 2.

In addition, in this embodiment, a control module and a button are arranged on the shell 1. The control module is arranged in the shell 1. In this embodiment, the control module is a micro control unit (MCU) chip and is electrically connected to the driving motor 51 to control a speed of the output shaft of the driving motor 51. The button is arranged on one side edge of the shell 1 and is used by a user. The button is electrically connected to the MCU chip. When the user presses the button, the button may send a signal to the MCU chip, and the MCU chip may send an electrical signal to the driving motor 51 to change the speed of the output shaft of the driving motor 51, so a speed of the bevel gear 44 may also change. Therefore, a rotation angle of the movable blade 3 may be changed under the cooperation of the bevel gear 44 and the rotating plate 43, and the maximum opening and closing angle between the movable blade 3 and the fixed blade 2 on the electric scissors can be adjusted.
The present disclosure further provides a control system of electric scissors, including the above electric scissors.
The implementation principles of the electric scissors and the control system thereof in the embodiments of the present disclosure are as follows: The driving motor 51 is started to drive the bevel gear 44 to rotate. Due to the engagement between the bevel gear 44 and the teeth on the rotating plate 43, the rotating plate 43 rotates to drive the movable blade 3 to rotate relative to the fixed blade 2, thereby achieving the cutting function of the electric scissors. When the fixed blade 2 or the movable blade 3 is significantly worn, the release blocks 621 are pressed to separate the clamping pieces 62 from the inner walls of the accommodating cavity 11, and the clamping block 13 may be separated from the clamping block holes 622. In this case, the knife case 6 can be removed from the shell 1. Therefore, the stopper 61 may not restrain the fixed blade 2. Due to the plugging fit between the movable blade 3 and the rotating plate 43, the fixed blade 2 and the movable blade 3 can be removed from the rotating shaft 42, so that the fixed blade 2 and the movable bade 3 can be replaced after being removed without using other auxiliary tools making the replacement of the movable blade 3 and the fixed blade 2 easier. At the same time, only the fixed blade 2 and the movable blade 3 are replaced, which can also reduce the cost of blade replacement.
The preferred embodiments of the present disclosure are described above, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape and principle of the present disclosure shall all fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
