Blade receiver assembly with switch, axle, spring, and magnet
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11833701B2) discloses a blade receiver assembly for a cutting device, featuring a switch with a switch cover and base forming an inner space. The assembly includes a flippable arc pivotally coupled to the switch cover, an axle with a structural section and body receiver section, a spring inside the switch, and a magnet in the axle's structural section. The axle can move against the spring force through the switch base opening, with the spring biasing the axle away from the switch cover's inner surface to prevent contact.
Furthermore, the cutting device incorporating this blade receiver assembly includes a rotary blade, a blade assembly holding member, and a switch that is rotatable and releasably connectable to the blade assembly holding member. The rotary blade fits and rotates between the body receiver section and switch base, with the spring connected to the axle and arranged partially inside it. The magnet in the axle's structural section prevents the rotary blade from sliding off, and the switch cover includes a step supporting the spring. The design allows for secure blade retention and ease of use, with various features like twist-lock mechanisms and flanges to enhance functionality and safety in the cutting device.
