Pen-shaped stationery

Abstract

This invention relates to a pen-shaped stationery item comprising a shell, a refill, and a soft pad. The shell has a holding portion and a bending portion. The bending portion is connected to the holding portion and can be bent relative to the holding portion. The refill is disposed in the holding portion and the bending portion, and has a pen tip. The pen tip can protrude through the bending portion. The soft pad covers the shell and is located near the end of the refill that protrudes from the shell. When the user writes, the pen tip will be offset from the central axis of the shell to a certain extent and with elasticity due to the design of the bending portion, thereby making the contact between the pen tip and the paper smoother and allowing the user to write more smoothly.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This creation is about a pen-shaped stationery item. Prior Technology

[0002] Existing pen-type stationery, such as ballpoint pens, gel pens, or felt-tip pens, all have a casing, a refill, and a soft pad. The refill is housed within the casing and extends through one end of the casing. The soft pad is located outside the casing, near the end where the refill extends through the casing, and is used to allow the user to grip the pen.

[0003] However, because the existing shell material is usually hard, a lot of force is usually required to move the pen tip when writing. Specifically, the user has to move the forearm to move the pen tip to write, which makes writing rather stiff.

[0004] In view of this, proposing a better improvement plan is an urgent problem that the industry needs to solve. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The main purpose of this work is to propose a pen-shaped stationery that solves the problem that existing shells are usually made of hard materials, requiring a lot of force to move the pen tip during writing, resulting in a stiff writing experience.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the pen-shaped stationery proposed in this work has the following characteristics: A shell having: a placement part; A pen tip, which is connected to the placement part; A bending portion connects the pen tip and the placement portion, allowing the pen tip to bend relative to the placement portion; A pen refill, disposed in the placement portion, and having a pen tip that can protrude from the pen tip portion; wherein, the bending portion has: A connecting section is attached to the placement part; A bent segment connected to the connecting segment, and the bent segment is bendable; the bent segment has: Multiple perforations are located at the end of the bend away from the connecting section and penetrate the wall of the bend.

[0007] As mentioned above, pen-shaped stationery also has the following features: A soft pad, which covers the housing and is located on the bend, and has: A protrusion is provided that can be bent to connect the placement part and the pen tip, and can fit into the pen refill.

[0008] As described above, the pen-shaped stationery has a plurality of perforations extending arcuately around the central axis of the housing, and the plurality of perforations are on a single plane of the bent section, and the perforations are spaced apart from each other.

[0009] As described above, in pen-shaped stationery, the perforations on adjacent planes of the bent section are spaced apart from each other.

[0010] As mentioned above, pen-shaped stationery also has the following features: A soft pad covers the bent section and is close to the pen refill.

[0011] As described above in pen-shaped stationery, the soft pad has: A plurality of protrusions, each of which can engage in one of the perforations, and the end faces of the plurality of protrusions can form a continuous surface with the inner surface of the bent section.

[0012] As described above, the pen-shaped stationery includes a spiral-shaped bent section.

[0013] As described above in pen-shaped stationery, the soft pad has: A protrusion, which is spiral-shaped, can engage in the gap of the bent section, and the end face of the protrusion can form a continuous surface with the inner surface of the bent section.

[0014] The advantage of this design lies in the fact that, when the user writes, the pen tip is elastically deviated from the central axis of the casing to a certain extent due to the bending section. Besides extending and retracting axially along the lead, the bending section can also swing or shift radially. This makes the contact between the pen tip and the paper smoother, allowing for a more fluid writing experience. Furthermore, because the bending section increases the usable space of the pen tip without moving the forearm, it allows for smoother writing of larger characters without requiring arm repositioning, which can create multiple breaks in the writing and affect the aesthetics.

Figure 7 is an exploded view of the fourth embodiment of this invention; Figure 8 is a cross-sectional view of the fourth embodiment of this invention. Implementation

[0016] Please refer to Figure 1. This invention proposes a pen-shaped stationery having a shell 10, a bending portion 20, and a refill 30, and optionally having a soft pad 40.

[0017] Please refer to Figures 1 and 2. The housing 10 has a placement portion 11 and a pen tip portion 12. The pen tip portion 12 is connected to the placement portion 11. A bending portion 20 is located between the pen tip portion 12 and the placement portion 11 and can be bent relative to the placement portion 11. The pen refill 30 is disposed in the placement portion 11 and has a pen tip 31. The pen tip 31 can protrude from the pen tip portion 12. In the first to fourth embodiments, the pen refill 30 is also bendable, so when the pen tip portion 12 bends relative to the placement portion 11, the pen refill 30 can also bend together.

[0018] In the first embodiment, the invention further includes a soft pad 40. The soft pad 40 covers the housing 10 and is located on the bending portion 20. The soft pad 40 has a protrusion 41. The protrusion 41 is flexibly disposed between the placement portion 11 and the pen tip portion 12, and can conform to the pen refill 30. Specifically, since the protrusion 41 is made of a soft material, it is itself bendable, thereby allowing the pen tip portion 12 to bend relative to the placement portion 11.

[0019] Please refer to Figures 3 and 4. The technical features of the second embodiment of this invention are similar to those of the first embodiment, except that in the second embodiment, this invention does not have a soft pad 40, and the bent portion 20A has a connecting segment 21 and a bent segment 22. The connecting segment 21 is connected to the placement portion 11A. The bent segment 22 is connected to the connecting segment 21, and the bent segment 22 is bendable. The bent segment 22 has a plurality of perforations 221 located at the end of the bent segment 22 away from the connecting segment 21 and penetrating the wall surface of the bent segment 22. In the second embodiment, the perforations 221 extend arcuately around the central axis of the housing 10, and a plurality of perforations 221 are formed on a single circumference of the bent segment 22, and the aforementioned perforations 221 are spaced apart from each other. The perforations 221 on adjacent circumferences of the bent segment 22 are spaced apart from each other. Since the bending section 22 is made of a softer and more flexible material, the structural strength of the bending section 22 around the perforation 221 is lower when subjected to force. Therefore, the user can bend the bending section 22 by deforming the perforation 221 of the bending section 22, thereby allowing the bending part 20A to bend relative to the placement part 11A.

[0020] Please refer to Figures 5 and 6. The technical features of the third embodiment of this invention are similar to those of the second embodiment, except that in the third embodiment, this invention has a soft pad 40B. The soft pad 40B covers the bent section 22B and has a plurality of protrusions 41B. Each protrusion 41B can engage in one of the through holes 221B, and the end face of the protrusion 41B can form a continuous surface with the inner surface of the bent section 22B. In this way, while maintaining the bendability of the bent section 20B, the protrusions 41B maintain a certain rigidity of the shell 10B, facilitating writing.

[0021] Please refer to Figures 7 and 8. The technical features of the fourth embodiment of this invention are similar to those of the third embodiment, except that in the fourth embodiment, the bending segment 22C does not have a plurality of perforations 221, but is spiral-shaped, for example, it can be a spring. The user can bend the bending portion 20C relative to the placement portion 11 by bending the spiral structure of the bending segment 22C. In addition, in the third embodiment, the soft pad 40C covers the bending segment 22C and has a protrusion 41C. The protrusion 41C is spiral-shaped and can engage in the gap of the bending segment 22C. Specifically, the spiral structure of the protrusion 41C engages with (or is intertwined with) the spiral structure of the bending segment 22C. The end face of the protrusion 41C can form a continuous surface with the inner surface of the bending segment 22C. In this way, while maintaining the bendability of the bending portion 20C, the protrusion 41C maintains a certain rigidity of the shell 10C, which is convenient for writing.

[0022] The advantage of this design is that, when the user writes, the pen tip 31 will be offset from the central axis of the shell 10 to a certain extent and with elasticity due to the bending section 22. In addition to the bending section 22 extending and retracting axially along the lead 30, it can also swing or shift radially along the lead 30. This makes the contact between the pen tip 31, located in the bending section 22, and the paper smoother, allowing for a smoother writing experience. Furthermore, because the bending section 22 increases the usable space of the pen tip 31 without moving the forearm, it allows for smoother writing of larger characters without requiring arm repositioning, which can create multiple breaks in the writing and affect aesthetics.
