Paper trimmer

摘要

A paper trimmer (10) includes a base (12) and a plate (14) pivotally attached to the base (12). A carrier (18) is slidably attached to the plate (14) in an elongated slot (60). A blade assembly (16) includes a blade (100) secured to a blade holder (112). The blade assembly (16) is attached to a cavity (92) within the carrier (18) such that a cutting edge (102) of the blade (100) extends below the plate (14) and is received within a channel (32) formed in a cutting region (30) of the base (12) when the plate (14) is disposed over the cutting region (30). A paper is cut by translation of the carrier (18) along the slot (60) of the plate (14).
