EDGING SHEARS COMPRISING A GRIPPING DEVICE

摘要

The invention relates to edging shears comprising an ergonomic gripping device (2), a grip body (11) connected to a housing (10) and provided with a grip part (110), and a pivoting lever (13) that can be pivoted in relation to the grip body (11) and is used to actuate a pivotable shear blade (33). The gripping device (2) is applied to the housing (10) such that the grip part (11) extends from a rear end of the edging shears (1) towards a front end, and the edging shears (1) can be gripped on the grip part (11) for use such that the centre of gravity (Z) of the edging shears (1) is beneath the grip part (110), the pivoting lever (13) is connected to the grip body (11) in a rear region in terms of the longitudinal extension of the grip part (110), by means of a pivoting axis (12), force is transmitted from the pivoting lever (13) to the pivotable shear blade (33) by means of at least one force transmission element to which a tensile load can be applied, especially a strip, a cable (51), a wire cable or the like, and/or the grip body (11) is pivotably applied to the housing (10) such that an angle of inclination can be varied between the grip part (110) and a cutting plane (S).
