A cutter head for a brushcutter has a base member with top and bottom base member parts and rotates about an axis of rotation in operation. The top base member part is fixed to the brushcutter shaft end. The bottom base member part is screwed by a screw element to the shaft end. A bearing element is arranged in the base member radially spaced to the axis of rotation. A cutting tool is secured by the bearing element to the base member between top and bottom base member parts. The bearing element is secured either to bottom or top base member part and arranged relative to the other one such that the bearing element is constructively unhindered to move relative to the other base member part at least circumferentially and such that the bottom base member part for mounting or demounting is rotatable relative to the top base member part.

Cutter head for a brushcutter

A rotatingly drivable filament cutting head for a trimmer, having a basic body on which a cutting filament is held. The cutting filament extends from outside the basic body through an opening into an interior region of the filament cutting head open to the surrounding area. A stop is arranged on the filament cutting head, so that, in a first position of the cutting filament, the stop delimits a filament portion of the cutting filament, which is insertable into the interior region, to an insertion length. A deflection element is arranged in the interior region so that the cutting filament can be switched from its first position, without the cutting filament being longitudinally displaced, into a second position. The cutting filament abuts against the deflection element in its second position and the stop does not delimit the length of the filament portion which is insertable into the interior region.

The cutting knife has a base member with first and second faces. One face has a topographic disturbance element arranged between knife edge and longitudinal center axis and shaping the elevation profile of the face. On the opposite face relative to the center plane an opposite elevation profile with contour line is formed. The contour line points of the contour line of the first elevation profile are positioned opposite the contour line points of the opposite contour line on perpendiculars to the center plane. The contour line of the first elevation profile and the opposite contour line are noncongruent. The contour line of the first elevation profile extends transversely to the longitudinal center axis of the base member across the disturbance element and has an ascending line section and a descending line section. A turning point positioned between these line sections is a component of the disturbance element.
