Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of pencil sharpeners, and more specifically to a pencil sharpener blade holder and a pencil sharpener. Background Technology

[0002] Existing pencil sharpeners typically produce pencil leads that are 3-4mm long, which is only sufficient for ordinary pencils. However, for sketching pencils, which are worn down during drawing and require long, thin leads, the lead is generally required to protrude at least 8mm from the wooden casing of the pencil's cone-shaped head, and sometimes even more than 1.5cm. In addition, sketching pencil leads are very soft and easily break during sharpening. Existing pencil sharpeners clearly cannot meet the needs of sketching pencils. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a blade holder for a pencil sharpener, which can be used in a pencil sharpener to sharpen sketch pencils, producing fine and long leads that are not easily broken during the sharpening process.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is to provide a tool holder for a pencil sharpener, including a tool holder body, a first base and a second base for assembling pencil sharpeners on the tool holder body, a pencil sharpening area between the first base and the second base on the tool holder body, a pencil insertion hole at one end of the tool holder body, a pencil sharpening groove and a support block arranged along the axial direction of the pencil insertion hole in the pencil sharpening area, a guide groove and a support groove arranged on the support block, the pencil sharpening groove, the guide groove and the support groove being arranged coaxially with the pencil insertion hole and all being conical grooves, the taper of the guide groove being greater than the taper of the support groove.

[0005] Compared with the prior art, the blade holder of the pencil sharpener of this utility model has the following advantages: a support block is added in the pencil sharpening area, the guide groove guides the conical head of the pencil, and the support groove supports the pencil lead. This not only makes the sharpened lead thin and long, but also prevents the lead from breaking during the sharpening process. The taper of the guide groove is greater than that of the support groove, which adapts to the structural characteristics of the pencil lead and the conical head of the pencil, making the support groove more suitable for the lead and reducing the probability of lead breakage.

[0006] Preferably, the angle between the generatrix of the conical groove surface of the guide groove and the central axis is 15° to 25°, and the angle between the generatrix of the conical groove surface of the support groove and the central axis is 10° to 15°. With this structure, the guide groove is better suited to the conical head shape of the pencil, and the support groove is better suited to the lead shape, reducing the probability of lead breakage.

[0007] Preferably, a connecting surface for reducing the inner diameter is provided between the guide groove and the support groove. With this structure, the connecting surface adapts to the structural features of the transition area from the pencil's conical tip to the lead, making the support groove more suitable for the lead and reducing the probability of lead breakage.

[0008] Preferably, the main body of the pencil holder has a lead retention area behind the sharpening area, which is located behind the support block. With this structure, the lead retention area provides space for the slender lead to extend beyond the support groove, preventing the lead from touching other components and breaking.

[0009] This utility model also provides a pencil sharpener, including a housing, a pencil feeding mechanism, and a blade holder as described above. A first base and a second base are provided with pencil sharpening blades, which are opposite to the sharpening groove. With this structure, the pencil sharpener of this utility model can be used to sharpen sketch pencils, producing long and thin leads that are less prone to breakage during sharpening.

[0016] Example 1:

[0017] like Figure 1As shown, the pencil sharpener of this utility model includes a pencil holder body 1, on which a first base 7 and a second base 8 for assembling pencil sharpeners are provided, and a sharpening area is provided on the pencil holder body 1 between the first base 7 and the second base 8. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, one end of the pencil holder body 1 is provided with a pencil insertion channel 2. Within the pencil sharpening area, a pencil sharpening groove 3 and a support block 4 are sequentially arranged along the axial direction of the pencil insertion channel 2. The support block 4 is provided with a guide groove 4-1 and a support groove 4-3. The pencil sharpening groove 3, guide groove 4-1, and support groove 4-3 are conical grooves arranged coaxially with the pencil insertion channel 2. The taper of the guide groove 4-1 is greater than the taper of the support groove 4-3. In this embodiment, the angle between the generatrix of the conical groove surface of the guide groove 4-1 and the central axis is 15° to 25°, and the angle between the generatrix of the conical groove surface of the support groove 4-3 and the central axis is 10° to 15°. A connecting surface 4-2 for narrowing the inner diameter is provided between the guide groove 4-1 and the support groove 4-3. The pencil sharpening groove 3 is used to guide the pencil cutting and advancing, the guide groove 4-1 is used to guide the conical head of the pencil after cutting, and the support groove 4-3 is used to support the pencil lead. The pencil holder body 1 has a pencil lead retention area 6 behind the pencil sharpening area. The pencil lead retention area 6 is located behind the support block 4, and the pencil lead can extend above the pencil lead retention area 6 under the support of the support groove 4-3.

[0018] The pencil sharpener of this utility model includes a housing, a pencil feeding mechanism, and a blade holder as described above. A pencil sharpening tool is provided on the first base 7 and the second base 8, and the pencil sharpening tool is opposite to the pencil sharpening groove 3.

[0019] When the pencil sharpener of this invention is working, the pencil is inserted into the sharpening groove 3 through the pencil insertion hole 2 and is cut by the sharpening tool, making the front part of the pencil gradually thinner. As the sharpening tool rotates, the feeding mechanism gradually pushes the pencil forward along the sharpening groove 3, so that the conical head of the pencil enters the guide groove 4-1. The feeding mechanism continues to push the pencil forward, and the conical head of the pencil moves along the guide groove 4-1, so that the lead smoothly enters the supporting groove 4-3. The supporting groove 4-3 supports the pencil lead. In this way, the pencil lead can be made thin and sharp, and the lead is not easy to break during the sharpening process.

[0020] In the cutting performance test, the pencil sharpener using the blade holder of this utility model only experienced 9 core breakages in 1500 tests, compared to 39 core breakages in 1500 tests using other blade holders, demonstrating a significant improvement in core breakage prevention performance.

[0021] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of implementation of this utility model. Any modifications or equivalent substitutions to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope should be covered within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
