AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing pen holders adjust all pens to the same angle and have fixed sizes, making it difficult to use with writing instruments of different thicknesses and lengths, and offer poor visibility and accessibility.

Method used

A pen holder comprising a tensegrity icosahedron structure with adjustable angles and elastic linear members, allowing pens to be held at different angles and accommodating various thicknesses and lengths, enhanced by a support plate and sheet member for stability and visibility.

Benefits of technology

Improves visibility and accessibility of multiple pens by allowing them to be held at different angles and accommodates pens of varying thicknesses and lengths, enhancing usability and efficiency.

Abstract

Conventional pen holders had two problems: when adjusting the angle of the holder, all pens were held at the same angle, and because the opening was only on the top, it was inconvenient to find multiple writing instruments at a glance. [Solution] The pen holder is a tensegrity icosahedron composed of six rod-shaped members, each having a locking part near both ends, and 24 linear members that are attached to two locking parts on each of the six rod-shaped members, thereby connecting the six rod-shaped members without them touching each other and forming a three-dimensional shape. The bottom of the tensegrity icosahedron is formed by three of the linear members that are locked to three of the locking parts closest to the installation surface when the tensegrity icosahedron is placed on the installation surface, and a bottom plate is provided above the three linear members of the bottom.
