Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a tip-type highlighter with an anti-drying device, and more specifically, to a tip-type highlighter with an anti-drying device disposed at the lower part of the pen body to prevent ink leakage due to vaporization of the pen tip. Background Technology

[0002] Generally, writing instruments with ink filters can use oil-based or water-based inks.

[0003] This writing instrument has a special composition due to the properties of oil-based or water-based inks.

[0004] In particular, in writing instruments that use water-based inks, the rear of the pen body is formed into a sealed structure, and the nib is additionally capped to prevent exposure to air, thereby slowing down the vaporization of ink through the nib.

[0005] However, when the pen cap is lost, the pen nib cannot be prevented from being exposed to the air, thus the pen may be unusable for a short period of time.

[0006] Therefore, a dry pen was developed that seals the space where the pen tip is located when the pen tip retracts during the extension and retraction process.

[0007] These existing anti-drying pens are used with a ball-shaped or sliding anti-drying device.

[0008] However, in the case of the spherical type, although the sealing force of the space where the pen tip is located is improved, the structure is complex. Moreover, since the rotating shaft of the ball valve and the movable shaft that makes the ball valve rotate form a dual structure, the rotation action is not smooth. In addition, in the case of the sliding type, although the side wall of the pen body and the lower part where the pen tip is retracted are sealed along the guide groove, it is difficult to achieve strong adhesion due to the nature of the sliding motion. Therefore, there is a problem of reduced sealing performance.

[0020] The plate closing guide is guided to be inserted into the guide groove of the lifting guide;

[0021] The sealing tube body is inserted into the plate closure inducer and contacts the sealing plate; and

[0022] A sealing plate is rotatably connected to the lower side of the lifting guide.

[0023] Preferably, the sealing plate is configured to have a rotating shaft protrusion coupled to the coupling hole of the rotating shaft, and to have a protruding end with the upper surface of the rotating shaft protrusion formed as an inclined surface. The protruding end protrudes a predetermined length outward from the lifting guide and contacts the open protrusion of the pen body to perform an opening action.

[0024] Preferably, the plate closing guide is formed as a tube, with coupling protrusions on both sides of the upper end that are inserted into guide grooves of the lifting guide and protrude outwards. The lower end has the same tilt direction as the pen tip to prevent interference when the pen tip is extended, retracted or extended.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0038] The following is a detailed description with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0039] The present invention includes: a pen body 10; a lifting guide 20 disposed inside the pen body 10 for guiding the lifting and lowering of a core-feeding operation member 40; a sealing device disposed at the lower part of the lifting guide 20 to prevent ink from being vaporized; a core-feeding operation member 40, the lower side of which is inserted into the lifting guide 20; and a core-feeding gear 50 inserted from the lower part of the core-feeding operation member 40 to perform the core-feeding operation.

[0040] The pen body 10 has a telescopic hole 11 at the bottom for the pen tip to extend and retract.

[0041] Insertion guides 12 are formed on the inner walls of both sides of the pen body 10 to guide the lifting guide 20 to be inserted into the correct position in the pen body 10. The lifting guide is coupled with a plate closing guide 31 supported by a spring and a core operating member 40.

[0042] The insertion guide 12 is formed as a curved surface that gradually narrows from top to bottom, and an anti-rotation groove 12a is formed at the bottom of the insertion guide 12 for the coupling protrusion 31a of the plate closing guide 31 to be inserted to prevent the lifting guide 20 from rotating.

[0043] An opening protrusion 13 is formed on the lower inner side of the pen body 10 to open the sealing plate 33.

[0044] A descent restriction protrusion 14 is formed on the opposite inner side of the open protrusion 13 to restrict the descent of the lifting guide 20.

[0045] The descent restriction protrusion 14 is formed to have a lower height than the open protrusion 13.

[0046] The upper part of the pen body 10 is provided with a pen clip member 15, which is attached to the upper part of the pen body 10 to prevent the core dropper 40 from disengaging.

[0047] The pen clip component 15 is attached to the upper part of the pen body 10 and forms a core operating hole 15a formed by the tube body, into which a core rod 40a is inserted.

[0048] A core rod 40a, coupled to a core operating member 40, is inserted from the bottom up into the core operating hole 15a.

[0049] The lifting guide 20 is inserted into the pen body 10 and located at the bottom.

[0050] The lifting guide 20 has guide grooves 21 cut out from the top for a predetermined length on both sides.

[0051] An open operating hole 22 is formed on one side of the lower end of the lifting guide 20, and a rotation shaft coupling hole 23 for coupling the sealing plate 33 is formed on both sides of the operating hole 22.

[0052] The rotating shaft coupling hole 23 is formed at an eccentric interval A in the inward direction from the center of the tube thickness of the plate closing guide 31 inserted into the interior.

[0053] The lower part of the lifting guide 20 is provided with a sealing device for sealing the lower part of the sealing tube 32 where the pen tip is located.

[0054] The sealing device includes: a plate closing guide 31, inserted into the lifting guide 20; a sealing tube 32, inserted into the interior of the plate closing guide 31 and in close contact with the upper surface 33c of the sealing plate 33; and a sealing plate 33, which is rotatably connected to the lower side of the lifting guide 20.

[0055] The plate closing guide 31 is formed as a tube, elastically supported by a spring, and located at the lower part of the lifting guide 20.

[0056] The plate closing guide 31 has coupling protrusions 31a formed on both sides of its upper end, which are inserted into the guide grooves 21 of the lifting guide 20 and protrude outward. The lower end is formed with an inclination angle in the same direction as the inclination angle of the tilted pen tip to prevent interference between the descending protruding pen tip and the sealing plate 33. A coupling groove 31b is formed at the upper end in the direction perpendicular to the coupling protrusions 31a for coupling the sealing tube 32 to the correct position.

[0057] The coupling protrusion 31a protrudes to the outside of the guide groove 21 of the lifting guide 20 and is inserted into the anti-rotation groove 12a of the pen body 10.

[0058] The inclined upper side of the plate closing guide 31 has a right-angle end 31c, which can contact the inclined surface of the protruding end 33a of the sealing plate 33.

[0059] The sealing tube 32 is inserted into the plate closing inducer 31 for coupling.

[0060] The sealing tube 32 has insertion protrusions 32a on both sides of its upper end that are inserted into the coupling groove 31b.

[0061] The sealing tube 32 protrudes further than the lower end of the plate closing inducer 31 and is in close contact with the upper surface 33c of the sealing plate 33.

[0062] The sealing tube 32 is made of rubber or silicone resin to improve its fit with the sealing plate 33.

[0063] The lower end of the sealing tube 32 forms a protruding, smaller-than-the-outer-diameter, close-fitting tube portion 32b, thereby improving the tightness of the fit with the sealing plate 33.

[0064] A sealing ring 32c is formed on the upper side of the sealing tube 32. The sealing ring 32c protrudes inward and fits tightly against the lower outer side of the dropper operating member that is connected to the pen tip.

[0065] The sealing plate 33 has an inclined protruding end 33a on one side of its upper part, and protruding rotating shaft protrusions 33b are formed on both sides of the protruding end 33a for coupling with the rotating shaft coupling hole 23 of the lifting guide 20.

[0066] The core operating member 40 is formed as a tube, with a coupled ink filter inserted from the upper side and a pen tip inserted from the lower part. Through this structure, ink can be supplied from the coupled ink filter inserted from the upper side.

[0067] A connecting rod 40a is inserted into the upper part of the connecting rod operating member 40 and connected to expose the upper side of the pen clip member 15.

[0068] The core-operating member 40 includes: an upper movable gear 41 that meshes with the core-operating member on its upper side and with the core-operating member 50 protruding to the inner surface of the core-operating member 50; and a lower movable gear 42 that meshes with the lower part of the core-operating member 50.

[0069] A lifting protrusion 43 is formed on the lower side of the core operating member 40, which is inserted into the guide groove 21 of the lifting guide member 20.

[0070] The core gear 50 has a telescopic gear 51 that protrudes at equal intervals on its inner surface and meshes with the upper movable gear 41 and the lower movable gear 42.

[0071] The core gear 50 is inserted from the lower side of the core operating member 40 and is combined such that the lower movable gear 42 is located at the lower part of the core gear 50 and the upper movable gear 41 is located at the upper part of the core gear 50.

[0072] The operation process of the present invention will be described below.

[0073] The present invention includes: a pen body 10; a lifting guide 20 disposed inside the pen body 10 for guiding the lifting and lowering of a core-feeding operation member 40; a sealing device disposed at the lower part of the lifting guide 20 for sealing the interior where the pen tip is located; a core-feeding operation member 40, the lower part of which is inserted into the lifting guide 20; and a core-feeding gear 50 inserted from the lower part of the core-feeding operation member 40 to perform the core-feeding operation. By pressing the core-feeding rod 40a at the upper part of the pen body 10, the sealing device is opened and closed, thereby allowing the pen tip to extend and retract from the telescopic hole 11 at the lower part of the pen body 10.

[0074] Furthermore, when the core rod 40a is pressed, the core operating member 40 descends, and the lifting guide member 20 descends by a predetermined interval through the core operating member 40. When the lifting guide member 20 descends, the open protrusion 13 protruding from the pen body 10 contacts the lower surface 33d of the protruding end 33a of the sealing plate 33 and rotates, thereby clearly opening the sealing plate 33.

[0075] Furthermore, the lifting guide 20, which descends at predetermined intervals, contacts the descent restriction protrusion 14, thereby ceasing further descent. Meanwhile, the core operating member 40, inserted into the lifting guide 20, continues to descend, causing the pen tip to protrude through the telescopic hole 11.

[0076] Furthermore, during the opening process, the protruding end 33a of the sealing plate 33 is located on the side of the opened operation hole 22 of the lifting guide 20, thereby preventing interference with the rotational opening operation of the sealing plate 33.

[0077] Furthermore, when the core rod 40a is pressed again, the core operating member 40 and the lifting guide member 20 rise, and when the pen tip of the core operating member 40 is located in the sealing tube 32, the inclined surface of the protruding end 33a of the lifting sealing plate 33 contacts the corner of the right angle end 31c of the plate closing guide member 31, and performs a closing rotation.

[0078] At this time, the rotating shaft protrusion 33b is coupled to the rotating shaft coupling hole 23 located at an inwardly eccentric interval A from the thickness center of the right-angle end 31c of the plate closing guide 31, so that the corner of the right-angle end 31c contacts the inclined surface of the protruding end 33a located outside the rotating shaft protrusion 33b, thereby performing the closing rotation action of the sealing plate 33.

[0079] In addition, after the inclined surface of the protruding end 33a is closed and rotated, the inclined surface contacts the surface of the right-angle end 31c. The upper surface of the sealing plate 33 protrudes from the sealing tube body 32, which is formed as an inclined surface from the lower end face, and contacts the tight-fitting tube part 32b with a smaller tube diameter. Thus, the tightness is improved by the thinner tube diameter.

[0080] The foregoing description of embodiments of the present invention, through which those skilled in the art are able to implement or use the present invention, will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art. The general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Therefore, the present invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novelty disclosed herein.
