Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A reciprocating blade apparatus includes a pair of reciprocating blades stacked on one another in a thickness direction, and a transmission case including a power train configured to reciprocate the pair of reciprocating blades. The power train includes a pair of eccentric cams, and a pair of reciprocating members including fitting holes in which the eccentric cams are fitted, respectively. The pair of reciprocating members is guided to be able to move along an axis line which is parallel to a moving direction of the pair of reciprocating blades and runs through a rotation axis of the eccentric cams.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A reciprocating blade apparatus comprising: a pair of reciprocating blades stacked on one another in a thickness direction; and a transmission case including a power train configured to reciprocate the pair of reciprocating blades, the power train including: a pair of eccentric cams; and a pair of reciprocating members each including a fitting hole in which the eccentric cams are fitted, respectively, wherein the pair of reciprocating members is guided to be able to move along an axis line which is parallel to a moving direction of the pair of reciprocating blades and runs through a rotation axis of the eccentric cams; wherein: each of the pair of reciprocating members includes a pair of guide holes formed one on each side of a fitting hole; and the transmission case includes a pair of guide members, each engaged with a respective guide holes. 2. The reciprocating blade apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the guide members are spaced a same distance from the rotation axis on the axis line. 3. The reciprocating blade apparatus according claim 1 , wherein top ends of the reciprocating members include convex portions removably engaged with concave portions formed in the reciprocating blades. 4. A handheld working machine including a reciprocating blade apparatus, the reciprocating blade apparatus including: a pair of reciprocating blades stacked on one another in a thickness direction; and a transmission case including a power train configured to reciprocate the pair of reciprocating blades, the power train including: a pair of eccentric cams; and a pair of reciprocating members each including a fitting hole in which the eccentric cams are fitted, respectively, wherein the pair of reciprocating members is guided to be able to move along an axis line which is parallel to a moving direction of the pair of reciprocating blades and runs through a rotation axis of the eccentric cams, the handheld working machine comprising: an operating rod having a top end to which the transmission case is mounted; a drive shaft provided in the operating rod and configured to transmit power to the power train; and a drive unit provided at a base end of the operating rod and configured to drive the drive shaft, wherein the longitudinal direction of the pair of reciprocating blades intersects a longitudinal direction of the operating rod; wherein: each of the pair of reciprocating members includes a pair of guide holes formed one on each side of a fitting hole; and the transmission case includes a pair of guide members, each engaged with a respective guide holes. 5. The handheld working machine according to claim 4 , wherein the guide members are spaced a same distance from the rotation axis on the axis line. 6. The handheld working machine according to claim 4 , wherein top ends of the reciprocating members include convex portions removably engaged with concave portions formed in the reciprocating blades.
