Abstract
An umbilical cord cutter retainer comprises a main spanner, a force applying spanner pivotally installed to the main spanner, and a cutting structure inserted in the main spanner. A distal end of the main spanner has an inserting groove for being inserted by a cutting structure. Two front lateral sides of the main spanner have respective umbilical cord clips which have different colors and are detachable. Normally, the umbilical cord clips supports the force applying spanner so as to be expanded from the main spanner. A knife is inserted into the force applying spanner. A knife can be exactly inserted into a place between the two umbilical cord clips for cutting the umbilical cord between the two umbilical cord clips. Moreover, two ends of the inserting groove of the main spanner have guide grooves. Thereby, the cutting structure can be guided into the inserting groove of the main spanner easily.
