PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a gardening clipper device of a small size and a light weight that has a good weight balance when held by one hand, and is excellent in operability according to a direction of reaping.SOLUTION: A gardening clipper device 1 includes a reaping blade part 30 of a single-edged structure and a housing 2 having a short-length, hollow and slightly-thick bar shape. The reaping blade part 30 is formed in a manner projecting from the front end of the housing 2 toward the forward direction. A motor is arranged in a backward portion of a midway-length part 2c placed in a position close to the front end of the housing 2. A center of gravity G of the gardening clipper device 1 including the reaping blade part 30 is made to be positioned at the midway-length part 2c as a whole to make the midway-length part 2c be the optimal one-hand holding part.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】小型軽量で、片手把持における重量バランスが良く、刈取りの向きに合わせた操作性に優れる、園芸用バリカン装置にする。【解決手段】片刃構造の刈刃部30と、一本の短尺中空略太棒形状を有するハウジング2とを有し、刈刃部30をハウジング2の前端部から前方に向けて突設させ、ハウジング2内の前部寄りとなる長さ途中部2cの後方箇所にモータを配置させて、刈刃部30を含めた園芸用バリカン装置1全体の重心Gを長さ途中部2cに位置させて、長さ途中部2cが最適な片手保持部になるようにした。【選択図】図1
