Abstract
A nose hair trimmer that facilitates removal of clipped hair from a blade. A main body case of the nose hair trimmer includes an interior chamber, a disposal opening, and a ring-shaped shutter. The interior chamber accommodates an inner blade rotor, which supports an inner blade, and collects clipped nose hair. The disposal opening communicates the chamber with the exterior. The shutter opens and closes the disposal opening. The shutter includes a communication portion, which communicates the interior chamber and disposal opening to the exterior. The position of the shutter in the circumferential direction when the disposal opening is closed is set as a reference position, and the shutter opens the disposal opening when rotated from the reference position by an amount that is less than one complete rotation.
