Abstract
A hair trimmer comprises a first cutter reciprocatory relative to a second cutter, the two cutters having parallel cutting edges provided with teeth; a resilient element urging the two cutters towards one another; and a coupling member coupled to the first cutter. The resilient element includes a central portion acting on the second cutter and adjoined by two resilient limbs extending from the central portion through an opening in the first cutter and then away from one another in opposite directions corresponding to the directions of the reciprocatory movement of the first cutter, the distal ends of the resilient limbs exerting pressure on the first cutter and bearing against the coupling member.
