==Armored Cable Cutter with Cutting Blade Retention - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18521278 titled 'Armored Cable Cutter with Cutting Blade Retention

==Simplified Explanation==

The cutting head for a hydraulic power tool described in the patent application includes a first jaw with a slot for receiving a corresponding ear, a second jaw with a third ear bore aligning between the first and second ear bores of the first ear, a spring-biased flange coupled to a blade on the first jaw, and a retainer coupled to a blade on the second jaw to prevent the blades from shifting out of alignment during a cutting action.

* First jaw with slot for receiving corresponding ear
* Second jaw with third ear bore aligning between first and second ear bores
* Spring-biased flange coupled to blade on first jaw
* Retainer coupled to blade on second jaw to prevent shifting during cutting action

== Potential Applications ==
The technology described in this patent application could be applied in various hydraulic power tools that require precise cutting actions, such as in construction, demolition, or industrial settings.

== Problems Solved ==
This technology solves the problem of blades shifting out of alignment during cutting actions, which can lead to inefficiency, inaccuracies, and potential safety hazards.

== Benefits ==
The benefits of this technology include improved cutting precision, increased efficiency, enhanced safety during operation, and potentially longer lifespan of the cutting tool.

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
The technology described in this patent application could be commercially applied in the manufacturing and distribution of hydraulic power tools for construction companies, demolition crews, industrial facilities, and other related industries.

== Possible Prior Art ==
One possible prior art could be similar cutting heads for hydraulic power tools that address the issue of blade alignment during cutting actions. However, specific details and features of the spring-biased flange and retainer in this patent application may distinguish it from existing technologies.

=== Unanswered Questions ===

== How does the spring-biased flange prevent the blades from shifting during cutting actions? ==
The patent application mentions a spring-biased flange that helps maintain blade alignment, but it does not provide detailed information on the mechanism or design of the flange. Further clarification on how the flange functions would be beneficial.

== What materials are used in the construction of the cutting head to ensure durability and longevity? ==
The patent application does not specify the materials used in the construction of the cutting head. Understanding the materials used and their properties would be important for assessing the durability and longevity of the cutting tool.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A cutting head for a hydraulic power tool includes a first jaw that includes a first ear configured with a slot for receiving a corresponding ear. The second jaw includes a second ear with a third ear bore that aligns in between a first ear bore and to a second ear bore of the first ear when the second ear is coupled in the slot of the first ear. The cutting head further includes a spring-biased flange coupled to a blade mounted to the first jaw and a retained coupled at a fixed position to a blade mounted to the second jaw. The retainer is configured to receive the flange during a cutting action such that the flange prevents the blades from shifting out of alignment during the cutting action.
