Drive system for beard and mustache trimmer

Abstract From the Canadian patent

By providing a beard and mustache trimmer construction wherein a single motor driven element is employed for directly operating both the main cutting blades as well as a pop-up trimmer, an easily employed efficient, beard and, mustache trimmer is realized. The trimmer is constructed in a manner which enables the pop-up trimmer to be directly driven by the same element which drives the principal cutting blades. In this way greater power is delivered , to the, pop-up trimmer element than has otherwise been attained with prior art systems as well as providing substantially reduced noise levels. As a result a , substan-, tially enhanced cutting and trimming system is realized.
