PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide mowing shears, capable of easily performing maintenance work and sufficiently reducing the manufacturing cost.SOLUTION: A pair of mowing shears includes: a shears body 2 having cutting parts 11a, 11b journaled by a shaft part 12 and opening and closing the cutting parts 11a, 11b along a first virtual plane orthogonal to the shaft center of the shaft part 12 an operating part 3 having handle parts 21a, 21b journaled by a shaft part 24 and opening and closing the handle parts 21a, 21b along a second virtual plane orthogonal to the shaft center of the shaft part 24 and parallel to the first virtual plane and pipes 31a, 31b disposed along the direction intersecting the first and second virtual planes, with the lower ends thereof fixed to the cutting parts 11a, 11b and with the upper ends fixed to the handle parts 21a, 21b. The shears body 2 and the operating part 3 are disposed so that the shaft center of the shaft part 12 and the shaft center of the shaft part 24 are located on a single axis line L and connected to each other by the pipes 31a, 31b.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】メンテナンス作業を容易に実施することができ、しかもその製造コストを十分に低減し得る草刈り鋏を提供する。【解決手段】刃部11a,11bが軸部12によって軸支されると共に、軸部12の軸中心と直交する第1仮想平面に沿って刃部11a,11bを開閉可能に構成された鋏本体2と、取っ手部21a,21bが軸部24によって軸支されると共に、軸部24の軸中心と直交し、かつ第1仮想平面と平行な第2仮想平面に沿って取っ手部21a,21bを開閉可能に構成された操作部3と、第1および第2仮想平面と交差する向きに沿って配設されると共に下端部が刃部11a,11bに固定され、かつ上端部が取っ手部21a,21bに固定されたパイプ31a,31bとを備え、軸部12の軸中心と軸部24の軸中心とが単一の軸線L上に位置するように鋏本体2および操作部3が配置されてパイプ31a,31bによって連結されている。【選択図】図1
