Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pen technology, specifically to a direct-liquid soft-tip pen. Background Technology

[0002] The tip of a direct-liquid soft-tip pen is made of polymer materials such as plastic and fiber. The tip of a direct-liquid soft-tip drawing pen is elastic; when writing, the friction between the pen tip and the paper creates vibrations, which draws ink out from the internal conduit, producing smooth lines. It is often used for drawing and sketching.

[0003] In conventional direct-liquid soft-tip pens, the water reservoir and ink core are usually integrated and tightly fitted together. During the production and assembly process, this type of fitting structure makes it easy for the ink core to be over-installed or under-installed, making position adjustment difficult, resulting in a low assembly yield rate and problems such as poor contact, uneven ink output, and inability to write. This is not conducive to the needs of automated production. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies of the existing technology and to provide a direct-liquid soft-tip pen.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A direct-liquid soft-tip pen includes a core assembly, an ink cartridge assembly, and a limiting head connected to one end of the ink cartridge assembly. The ink cartridge assembly includes an ink cartridge and a water reservoir. The water reservoir is located inside the ink cartridge, and a through first ink flow channel is formed inside the water reservoir.

[0006] The core assembly includes a water-guiding core and a pen tip body that are connected and communicate with each other along the first direction A. The end of the water-guiding core away from the pen tip body extends into the ink cartridge through the first ink flow channel.

[0007] The water-guiding core includes a first core and a second core connected along the first direction A. The diameter of the first core is smaller than the diameter of the second core, and a first abutting step is formed between the two.

[0008] The first ink flow channel is provided with an abutting and limiting structure that abuts and cooperates with the first abutting step and restricts the movement of the ink core into the ink cartridge. The main body of the pen tip passes through the limiting head and is partially limited within the limiting head.

[0009] With this design, the water-guiding core is installed in place when it abuts against the first contact step and the contact limiting structure after it enters the first ink flow channel. This makes assembly convenient and accurate, suitable for automated production. At the same time, the contact limiting structure is located inside the first ink flow channel, which ensures that the ink flow into the first ink flow channel is sufficient, and the problem of ink interruption is not likely to occur during writing.

[0010] The water-guiding core and the pen tip body can be connected as a single molded part, or they can be separate structures. In this case, the connection between the two is that the end of the water-guiding core and the tail end of the pen tip body are tightly fitted together.

[0011] The pen tip body portion is partially confined within the limiting head in either a form where the pen tip body portion is tightly fitted to the limiting head, or a form where the pen tip body portion abuts against the through hole inside the limiting head.

[0012] Preferably, the first ink flow channel is located at the center of the water reservoir and includes a first channel and a second channel connected to each other along the first direction A. The diameter of the first channel is smaller than the diameter of the second channel. The abutment limiting structure includes a second limiting step formed between the first channel and the second channel and abutting and cooperating with the first abutment step.

[0013] This design allows the second limiting step formed between the first and second channels to engage with the first limiting step, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the water intake core and the water storage device.

[0014] The second limiting step is located near the limiting head, which makes the length of the first core greater than that of the second core, ensuring connection stability and ease of assembly while reducing the material consumption in the manufacturing of the water intake core.

[0015] Preferably, the second core portion is clearance-fitted with the second channel, and at least a portion of the first core portion close to the second core portion is clearance-fitted with the first channel.

[0016] This design ensures smooth insertion of the water-guiding core into the first ink flow channel, preventing issues such as difficulty in insertion due to excessive resistance, damage to the water-guiding core, and difficulty in controlling the insertion position.

[0017] Preferably, the first channel includes a fastening hole and a guide hole connected along the first direction A. The fastening hole is fastened to the first core, and the guide hole is clearance-fitted to the first core.

[0018] This design ensures smooth insertion of the water-guiding core into the first ink channel, while also providing a fastening hole at the end of the first core as it passes through the first channel. This improves the stability of the connection between the water-guiding core and the water reservoir, making it less likely for the water-guiding core to fall out of the water reservoir.

[0019] Preferably, the upper end of the guide hole has a larger diameter along the first direction A and a guide slope is formed on its hole wall.

[0020] With this setting, as the water core passes through the guide hole, the guide slope acts as a guide for the water core, making it easier for it to pass through the fastening hole.

[0021] Preferably, the core assembly is provided with a positioning groove at a position below the first abutting step, and the limiting head is provided with a positioning protrusion whose shape is adapted to the positioning groove. The positioning protrusion is connected to the positioning groove and the core assembly / pen tip body is fastened to the limiting head.

[0022] Specifically, "below" refers to the direction away from the ink cartridge. The positioning groove located around the core assembly and the positioning protrusion on the limiting head form a tight fit, ensuring a stable and reliable connection between the core assembly / pen tip body and the limiting head. Simultaneously, the positioning groove provides an automatic positioning marker for the core assembly / pen tip body, preventing over-insertion or compression that could damage the core assembly. Furthermore, the positioning groove and the first limiting step form a double positioning marker, further improving the accuracy of the core assembly's positioning and resulting in a high degree of automation.

[0023] Preferably, the water reservoir is provided with at least two extension plates that surround the water inlet core and extend axially at one end near the ink cylinder, and each extension plate has an extension channel formed on its inner circumference that is fastened to the water inlet core.

[0024] This design further improves the stability of the connection between the water inlet core and the water reservoir, while ensuring the area of ​​the ink inlet.

[0025] Preferably, the length of the extension plate is greater than the length of the first ink flow channel that extends from the end of the water-conducting core near the ink cylinder.

[0026] This design allows the extension plate to protect the end of the water intake core.

[0027] Preferably, the water-guiding core and the pen tip body are separate structures, with one end of the water-guiding core pressed against and fixed to the tail end of the pen tip body.

[0028] Preferably, the core assembly is a one-piece molded part.

[0029] This design further reduces assembly steps and improves assembly convenience. Simply connect the limiting head to the water tank, and then pass the core component through the limiting head and the water tank in sequence to complete the installation.

[0030] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the water-guiding core is installed in place when it penetrates the first ink flow channel and abuts against the first abutting step and the abutting limiting structure. This makes assembly convenient and accurate, and is suitable for the needs of automated production. At the same time, the abutting limiting structure is set in the first ink flow channel, which can ensure that the ink flow into the first ink flow channel is sufficient and that the problem of ink interruption is not likely to occur during writing.
