Abstract
An electric hair cutter includes a motion conversion mechanism that converts rotary motion of an output shaft of an electric motor into reciprocating linear motion and a movable blade driven by reciprocating linear motion of the motion conversion mechanism. The motion conversion mechanism includes a first conversion portion, converting rotary motion of the output shaft into reciprocating rotary motion about a first axis, a second conversion portion, converting the reciprocating rotary motion into reciprocating linear motion, and an output portion, coupling the second conversion portion to the movable blade. The second conversion portion includes a motion transmission part, coupling the first conversion portion to the output portion, and an elastic deformation part coupled to the motion transmission part to restrict motion of the motion transmission part caused by motion components differing from a motion component in an output direction so that the motion transmission part linearly reciprocates.
