MOUNTING ASSEMBLY FOR A HAIR CUTTING APPLIANCE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18574515 titled 'MOUNTING ASSEMBLY FOR A HAIR CUTTING APPLIANCE
The abstract describes a mounting assembly for a hair cutting appliance, consisting of a head and a base connected by a pair of arms forming a linkage. The arms are pivotally coupled to the head and base, allowing for movement along a specific line. A stroke limiter prevents excessive movement of the head relative to the base. One of the base couplings is flexible, enabling additional pivoting movement beyond the stroke limit.

Original Abstract Submitted
According to an aspect, there is provided a mounting assembly () for a hair cutting appliance, the mounting assembly comprising: a head () configured to receive a cutting unit; and a base (), wherein the head is mounted to the base via a pair of arms () to form a linkage. Each arm is coupled at a joint () to a head coupling () on the head, and coupled at a joint to a respective base coupling () on the base. The base couplings are spaced apart along a movement line, and each joint is configured to permit pivoting movement about parallel pivot axes. A stroke limiter () is configured to obstruct pivoting movement of the head relative to the base beyond a limit. At least one of the base couplings is a flexible base coupling which is elastically mounted to a body () of the base such that the respective flexible base coupling is moveable relative to the body in a direction having a component which is parallel to the movement line and away from the other base coupling, to permit pivoting movement of the head relative to the base beyond the limit imposed by the stroke limiter.
