Abstract
According to an aspect, there is provided a mounting assembly () for a hair cutting appliance, the mounting assembly comprising a head () for receiving a cutting unit (); and a body (). The head is mounted to the body by a four-bar linkage () having a coupler link () associated with the head, a frame link () associated with the body, and two arms () extending therebetween. The frame link is connected to each arm at respective joins (), and the coupler link is connected to each arm at respective joins. Pivoting movement of the arms about parallel linkage axes () passing through each join permits rotation of the coupler link relative to the frame link about a virtual pivot (). One of the coupler link and the frame link is a first link coupled to the arms by two-degree-of-freedom joins, thereby permitting the arms and the other of the frame link and the coupler link to further pivot in unison relative to the first link about a rotation axis () perpendicular to the linkage axes.
