Description

A press-type pen with sound control. Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a stationery item, and more particularly to a press-type pen with a controllable pressing sound. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, writing pens (ballpoint pens, gel pens, etc.) are indispensable stationery in people's daily lives and work. Writing pens are divided into two types based on their usage: push-button pens and cap-type writing pens. For push-button pens, noise is generated during use when the user presses the cap due to gear vibration, impact, and collision. To address this, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN112406364A discloses a push-button writing stationery that uses a positioning component that does not rely on gears for positioning. Instead, it uses a rotatable positioning element on a sliding component, which engages with a groove on a guide component to achieve a silent pressing process. However, users have different needs regarding whether or not noise is generated during pressing in different environments, and there is a need for the same push-button pen to produce both noise and silence when pressed. Technical issues

[0022] The first guide groove is configured to guide the sound-producing mating member into the mounting opening as the guide member is inserted into the pen barrel.

[0050] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0051] As shown in Figures 1-7, the press-type pen with sound controllable in this embodiment includes:

[0052] The pen barrel 1 has a pen tip 11 at its head and an installation port 12 at its tail; the pen barrel 1 is equipped with a pen clip 13.

[0053] The pen refill 2 is disposed in the pen barrel 1 and can reciprocate within the pen barrel 1; the pen tip 21 of the pen refill 2 can extend to the outside of the pen head 11 in the writing state, and retract into the pen barrel 1 in the non-writing state.

[0054] A return spring (not shown) is disposed in the pen barrel 1 and configured to drive the pen refill 2 to return to its original position. The return spring, disposed in the pen barrel 1, exerts an actual spring force on the pen refill 2, causing the pen refill 2 to retract into the pen barrel 1 under the action of the spring force. The installation method of the return spring can refer to the installation method of a conventional push-button pen, and will not be limited or elaborated here.

[0055] The pressing and positioning assembly 3 includes a guide 31, a slider 32, and a positioning member 33. The guide 31 is provided with a guide groove 311, and a rotation drive part 312 and a positioning engagement part 313 are provided in the guide groove 311. The slider 32 is slidably mounted on the guide 31 along the length direction of the guide groove 311. The positioning member 33 is rotatably mounted on the slider 32, and a positioning part 331 is provided on the positioning member 33. The positioning part 331 is slidably disposed in the guide groove 311.

[0056] The sliding member 32 is also provided with a sound-emitting member 321, and the pen barrel 1 is provided with a sound-emitting mating member 14 for cooperating with the sound-emitting member 321; the guide member 31 is inserted into the mounting port 12 and rotatably disposed on the pen barrel 1, and the sliding member 32 is used to push the pen core 2 to move in the pen barrel 1;

[0057] In addition, when the guide member 31 is rotated to the first position in the pen barrel 1, the sound-producing fitting member 14 is located on the movement path of the sound-producing member 321; when the guide member 31 is rotated to the second position in the pen barrel 1, the sound-producing fitting member 14 is deviated from the movement path of the sound-producing member 321.

[0058] Specifically, the press-type pen with sound control has a sliding lead 2 in the pen barrel 1. When writing, the tip 21 of the lead 2 extends outside the pen head 11; when not in use, the tip 21 retracts into the pen barrel 1. The extension of the tip 21 from the pen head 11 is achieved through a press-positioning component 3.

[0059] Specifically, when a user needs to write with a press-type pen, by applying pressure to the slider 32, the slider 32 will slide relative to the guide 31 and simultaneously drive the pen core 2 to move toward the pen tip 11, ultimately causing the pen tip 21 to protrude from the pen tip 11.

[0060] After the pen tip 21 extends out of the pen head 11, and the user releases the pen, the positioning part 331 and the positioning mating part 313 work together to ensure that the pen refill 2 remains in place, so that the pen tip 21 is always in a state of extending out of the pen head 11.

[0061] Similarly, when the user is not using it, pressure is applied to the slider 32 again, causing the positioning part 331 and the positioning mating part 313 to separate. Under the action of the reset spring, the pen tip 2 will drive the slider 32 to slide back to its original position.

[0062] Because the positioning part 331 and the positioning mating part 313 do not engage with a conventional tooth structure to produce a pressing sound during the positioning process, users may selectively require either a pressing sound or silent operation under different usage conditions. Since the pressing positioning component 3 itself can meet the requirement of silent operation, a sound-generating element 321 is provided on the sliding member 32 to meet the requirement of producing a pressing sound. Correspondingly, a sound-generating mating part 14 is provided on the pen barrel 1. Simultaneously, the guide member 31 is rotatably installed in the pen barrel 1, and the circumferential relative position between the sound-generating element 321 and the sound-generating mating part 14 is changed by rotating the guide member 31 to switch whether a pressing sound is produced.

[0063] When a pressing sound is required, the guide 31 rotates to the first position within the pen barrel 1. At this point, the sound-producing mating part 14 is positioned on the path of movement of the sound-producing part 321. During the user's pressing process, the slider 32 causes the sound-producing part 321 to slide within the pen barrel 1, allowing the sound-producing part 321 to come into contact with the sound-producing mating part 14. A pressing sound is generated during the contact between the sound-producing part 321 and the sound-producing mating part 14, thus satisfying the user's requirement for a pressing sound.

[0064] When the press is required to mute, the guide 31 rotates to the second position within the pen barrel 1. At this point, the sound-emitting mating part 14 deviates from the movement path of the sound-emitting part 321. During the user's press, the slider 32 drives the sound-emitting part 321 to slide within the pen barrel 1. The sliding sound-emitting part 321 does not contact the sound-emitting mating part 14, thus achieving the requirement of mute upon press.

[0065] Since users can switch between pressing to make a sound or pressing to mute by rotating the guide 31, different user needs can be met.

[0066] In one embodiment, the sound-emitting element 321 is an elastic component, and the sound-emitting mating element 14 is a boss formed on the inner wall of the pen barrel 1; the sound-emitting element 321 is configured to contact the sound-emitting mating element 14 and undergo elastic deformation during the movement of the sliding element 32.

[0067] Specifically, to meet the requirement of sound generation by the sound-generating component 321, the sound-generating component 321 is an elastic member. After contacting the sound-generating mating component 14, the sound-generating component 321 generates sound due to elastic deformation. The sound-generating mating component 14, on the other hand, can be a rigid component to meet the requirement of cooperating with the sound-generating component 321 to generate sound. During the sliding process of the sound-generating component 321 following the sliding component 32, the sound-generating component 321 will contact and separate from the boss on the pen barrel 1 to generate a pressing sound.

[0068] In another embodiment, the sound-generating element 321 is further configured to generate sound by elastic deformation and resetting when it comes into contact with the sound-generating mating element 14 during the movement of the sliding element 32 and then disengages from the sound-generating mating element.

[0069] Specifically, during use, after the sound-generating element 321 comes into contact with the sound-generating mating element 14, when the sound-generating element 321 detaches from the sound-generating mating element 14, sound will be generated due to the elastic reset of the sound-generating element 321.

[0070] In one embodiment, one end of the sound-generating element 321 has a raised structure; the raised end of the sound-generating element 321 is configured to generate sound when it contacts the sound-generating mating member 14 and disengages from the sound-generating mating member 14.

[0071] Specifically, the free end of the sound-generating element 321 has a raised structure. When the sound-generating element 321 contacts the sound-generating mating element 14, the raised end of the sound-generating element 321 will first move onto the sound-generating mating element 14 and then detach from it. After the raised end of the sound-generating element 321 engages with the sound-generating mating element 14, it will cause the sound-generating element 321 to undergo elastic deformation. Furthermore, when the raised end of the sound-generating element 321 detaches from the sound-generating mating element 14, the sound-generating element 321 will elastically reset to generate a pressing sound.

[0072] In another embodiment, the raised end of the sound-generating element 321 is provided with a protrusion 322; the protrusion is provided with a first inclined surface 141 and a second inclined surface 142, the first inclined surface 141 extends obliquely from the inner wall of the pen barrel 1 along the direction from the mounting port 12 to the pen tip 11, and the second inclined surface 142 extends obliquely to one side of the center line of the pen barrel 1 along the direction from the pen tip 11 to the mounting port 12.

[0073] Specifically, in order to ensure that the pen tip 2 slides smoothly during the pressing and sound-emitting state, a first inclined surface 141 and a second inclined surface 142 are formed on the sound-emitting mating part 14 formed by the boss. The first inclined surface 141 allows the protrusion 322 formed by the raised end of the sound-emitting part 321 to move smoothly along the first inclined surface 141 to the boss during the process of pressing and extending the pen tip 21. Then, after the protrusion 322 moves to the boss, it can cause the sound-emitting part 321 to undergo greater deformation. As a result, when the protrusion 322 disengages from the boss, the sound-emitting part 321 generates a crisp pressing sound during the reset process due to the large elastic deformation.

[0074] As the user presses the pen again, causing the pen tip 21 to retract into the pen barrel 1, the raised end of the sound-generating element 321 will move along the second inclined surface 142, causing the sound-generating element 321 to bend again. After the sound-generating element 321 disengages from the second inclined surface 142, the sound-generating element 321 will generate a crisp pressing sound again through elastic deformation during the reset process.

[0075] The first inclined surface 141 and the second inclined surface 142 can ensure that the sliding member 32 will not experience significant resistance due to the contact and engagement between the sound-generating member 321 and the sound-generating mating member 14 during the reciprocating movement, thereby improving the user experience.

[0076] In another embodiment, in addition to generating a pressing sound during the elastic deformation and reset process, a frictional sound generation method can also be used. That is, the sound-generating member 321 is provided with a first frictional sound-generating part, and the sound-generating mating member 14 is provided with a second frictional sound-generating part. The sound-generating member 321 is configured to generate sound by contacting and rubbing the first frictional sound-generating part with the second frictional sound-generating part during the movement following the sliding member 32.

[0077] Specifically, the sound-generating component 321 and the sound-producing mating component 14 are each provided with a friction-generating part that can produce sound during friction. When a pressing sound is required, the sound-generating component 321 will contact the sound-producing mating component 14 and generate friction. During the friction process, the first and second friction-generating parts cooperate to produce a pressing sound. The specific physical manifestations of the first and second friction-generating parts can adopt conventional friction-generating sound structures. For example, the friction-generating part can be a rough surface, and the sound-generating component 321 itself has a certain degree of elasticity. The contact between the rough surface of the sound-generating component 321 and the rough surface of the sound-producing mating component 14 will produce a rustling sound. Alternatively, the first friction-generating part can be an elastic tooth, and the second friction-generating part can be a hard tooth. The contact and friction between the elastic tooth and the hard tooth will produce a clicking sound.

[0078] In actual design and production, the friction force generated between the first friction sound-generating part and the second friction sound-generating part should be controlled so as not to affect the normal sliding of the pen refill 2.

[0079] In another embodiment of this application, the slider 32 is provided with a detachable mounting base 323, and the sound-emitting element 321 is disposed on the mounting base 323; wherein, the slider 32 is provided with a mounting groove 324, and the mounting base 323 is located in the mounting groove 324.

[0080] Specifically, in order to facilitate the assembly of the sound-generating component 321 onto the sliding component 32, the sound-generating component 321 and the mounting base 323 can be assembled together or form an integral structure first. Then, the sound-generating component 321 can be detachably assembled into the mounting groove 324 through the mounting base 323.

[0081] In some embodiments, the sound-generating element 321 can be integrally formed on the slider 32, that is, the sound-generating element 321 and the slider 32 are a single structure. For example, the sound-generating element 321 can be integrally formed on the slider 32 by injection molding.

[0082] In another embodiment, the guide member 31 has a cylindrical structure, and the guide groove 311 is provided on the cylindrical wall of the guide member 31;

[0083] The guide member 31 is also provided with an installation opening 314 on its cylindrical wall. At least a portion of the sound-generating member 321 is located in the installation opening 314, and at least a portion of the sound-generating mating member 14 is also located in the installation opening 314.

[0084] Specifically, to meet the requirement that the guide member 31 can be rotatably installed in the pen barrel 1, the guide member 31 can be configured as a cylindrical structure. Correspondingly, the cylindrical wall of the guide member 31 is provided with a guide groove 311 to meet the requirement of cooperating with the positioning member 33 for installation. The structure of the guide groove 311 on the guide member 31 cooperating with the rotatable positioning member 33 on the slider 32 to achieve silent pressing can refer to the structural assembly methods in the prior art, such as the structure in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN112406364A, and will not be limited or elaborated upon here.

[0085] In addition, in order to meet the installation requirements of the sound-generating component 321, an installation opening 314 is provided on the cylindrical wall of the guide component 31, so that the sound-generating component 321 and the sound-generating mating component 14 can contact and engage in the area formed by the installation opening 314 to achieve the pressing and sound generation.

[0086] In one embodiment, a first guide groove 315 is further provided on the cylindrical wall of the guide member 31. The first guide groove 315 extends along the axial direction of the guide member 31 from the end of the guide member 31 near the pen tip 11 to the mounting opening 314. The first guide groove 315 is configured to guide the sound-producing mating member 14 into the mounting opening 314 during the process of the guide member 31 being inserted into the pen barrel 1.

[0087] Specifically, to facilitate assembly and ensure smooth installation of the sound-producing component 14 into the mounting opening 314, a first guide groove 315 can be additionally provided on the cylindrical wall of the guide component 31. Thus, during assembly, as the guide component 31 is inserted into the pen barrel 1, the sound-producing component 14 can enter the mounting opening 314 along the first guide groove 315.

[0088] In another embodiment, both the sound-emitting element 321 and the mounting opening 314 extend along the axial direction of the guide 31, and the side of the sound-emitting element 321 is also attached to one side of the mounting opening 314.

[0089] Specifically, for the sound-generating component 321, since it needs to move with the sliding component 32, the sound-generating component 321 will move along one side of the mounting opening 314 in the mounting opening 314. The side of the mounting opening 314 can also guide the sound-generating component 321 to slide smoothly.

[0090] Furthermore, when the sound-generating element 321 employs an elastic component and has a raised end, after the sound-generating element 321 contacts and separates from the sound-generating mating member 14, the sound-generating element 321 resets and impacts the side of the mounting opening 314 to produce a louder sound. Specifically, after the sound-generating element 321 slides along and disengages from the second inclined surface 142, its elastic reset will impact the side of the mounting opening 314, thereby obtaining a clearer and crisper sound.

[0091] In one embodiment of this application, a limiting opening 316 is further provided on the cylindrical wall of the guide member 31, and a limiting protrusion 15 is further provided on the inner wall of the pen barrel 1, wherein the limiting protrusion 15 is located in the limiting opening 316.

[0092] The limiting protrusion 15 is configured to engage with both ends of the limiting opening 316 to limit the rotation angle of the guide 31.

[0093] Specifically, in order to limit the rotation angle of the guide member 31 so that it can be precisely rotated to the first position or the second position, a limiting protrusion 15 is provided on the inner wall of the pen barrel 1. Correspondingly, a limiting opening 316 is also provided on the guide member 31. After assembly, the limiting protrusion 15 will be located in the limiting opening 316. The limiting protrusion 15 and the limiting opening 316 cooperate to limit the rotation angle of the guide member 31 in the pen barrel 1. In this way, when the guide member 31 rotates to the first position, it can be ensured that the sound-producing mating member 14 is located on the moving path of the sound-producing member 321.

[0094] To facilitate assembly by operators, a second guide groove 317 is provided on the cylindrical wall of the guide member 31. The second guide groove 317 extends along the axial direction of the guide member 31 from the end of the guide member 31 near the pen tip 11 toward the limiting opening 316, but does not communicate with the limiting opening 316. The second guide groove 317 is configured to guide the limiting protrusion 15 into the limiting opening 316 during the process of the guide member 31 being inserted into the pen barrel 1.

[0095] Specifically, the second guide groove 317 extends from the end of the guide member 31 along the axial direction of the guide member 31 toward the limiting opening 316, and the second guide groove 317 is not directly connected to the limiting opening 316 but forms a certain distance between the two.

[0096] In this way, during assembly, the limiting protrusion 15 is located in the second guide groove 317 to guide the assembly, and at the same time, it cooperates with the sound-emitting mating part 14 to guide the assembly in the first guide groove 315. This can also serve as a foolproof design to improve assembly accuracy and efficiency.

[0097] Furthermore, since a gap is formed between the second guide groove 317 and the limiting opening 316, after the limiting protrusion 15 is guided by the second guide groove 317 and finally engaged in the limiting opening 316, the limiting protrusion 15 will not easily detach from the limiting opening 316, thus ensuring that the guide member 31 is reliably assembled into the pen barrel 1 and preventing the guide member 31 from detaching from the pen barrel 1. Preferably, the sidewall of the second guide groove 317 adjacent to the end of the limiting opening 316 forms an inclined surface, which allows the limiting protrusion 15 to detach from the second guide groove 317 and transitionally engage in the limiting opening 316 via the inclined surface.

[0098] In addition, in order to improve the accurate positioning of the rotation position of the guide 31, the limiting opening 316 has two positioning protrusions 318 on the edge away from the mounting port 12, and the positioning protrusions 318 are configured to position the limiting protrusion 15 at one end of the limiting opening 316.

[0099] Specifically, the limiting opening 316 is provided with two positioning protrusions 318. During the rotation of the guide member 31, the limiting protrusion 15 can pass over the positioning protrusion 318 at the corresponding position to abut against one end of the limiting opening 316, and the positioning protrusion 318 is used to position the limiting protrusion 15 so that the guide member 31 remains unchanged after rotating to the first position or the second position.

[0100] In another embodiment of this application, the pressing and positioning component 3 further includes a cover 34, which is disposed on the guide member 31 and covers the guide groove 311.

[0101] Specifically, for the press positioning component 3, after it is installed into the pen barrel 1, the guide 31 needs to rotate within the pen barrel 1. Simultaneously, the guide 31 also serves as the main mounting and supporting component of the press positioning component 3, on which a slider 32, a positioning component 33, and a sound-generating component 321 are mounted. In particular, the positioning component 33 is rotatably mounted on the slider 32 and needs to cooperate with the guide groove 311 on the guide 31. To prevent the positioning component 33 from falling off during use, after the slider 32 and the positioning component 33 are assembled onto the guide 31, a cover 34 is provided on the mounting opening 314. The cover 34 covers the mounting opening 314 and is located outside the positioning component 33 to protect it, thereby preventing the positioning component 33 from falling off the slider 32 during use and improving reliability.

[0102] In another embodiment of this application, in order to facilitate the user to rotate the guide 31, the pressing and positioning assembly 3 further includes a rotating sleeve 35; one end of the guide 31 extends to the outside of the pen barrel 1 and is provided with a rotating sleeve 35.

[0103] Specifically, the surface of the rotating sleeve 35 can be provided with anti-slip ribs, so that the user can twist the rotating sleeve 35 by hand to drive the guide member 31 to rotate.

[0104] Preferably, in order to obtain a better rotational feel and generate a damped feel during the user's twisting of the rotating sleeve 35, a rubber ring 37 can also be fitted on the guide 31, the rubber ring 37 being sandwiched between the rotating sleeve 35 and the end of the pen barrel 1.

[0105] Specifically, since a rubber ring 37 is provided between the rotating sleeve 35 and the end face of the pen barrel 1 with the mounting opening, after the rotating sleeve 35 is assembled onto the guide member 31, the rubber ring 37 will be pressed between the end faces of the rotating sleeve 35 and the pen barrel 1. Therefore, during the process of twisting the rotating sleeve 35 to drive the guide member 31 to rotate within the pen barrel 1, friction is generated between the rubber ring 37 and the rotating sleeve 35, thus achieving a damping feel. Simultaneously, because the rubber ring 37 is elastic, the gap formed between the end faces of the rotating sleeve 35 and the pen barrel 1 can be filled by the rubber ring 37, thereby improving the overall quality of the product and reducing unevenness in the connection gaps caused by injection molding deformation.

[0106] In addition, the rotating sleeve 35 can also be fixedly installed on the corresponding end of the guide member 31 by snap-fit. For example, the inner wall of the rotating sleeve 35 is provided with annular ribs (unmarked), and correspondingly, annular ribs (unmarked) are also provided on the outer circumference of the sliding member 32. After the rotating sleeve 35 is fitted onto the guide member 31 and snapped into place, the two annular ribs cooperate to prevent the rotating sleeve 35 from detaching from the guide member 31. Furthermore, under the elastic action of the rubber ring 37, the two annular ribs are ensured to abut against each other to ensure that there is no gap in the assembled product, thereby improving the quality of assembly.

[0107] In another embodiment, the outer wall of the guide member 31 is provided with a plurality of protrusions 319, which are distributed around the axial direction of the guide member 31.

[0108] Specifically, after the guide 31 is installed into the pen barrel 1, multiple protrusions 319 on the outer surface of the guide 31 contact the inner wall of the pen barrel 1. In this way, while the guide 31 can effectively obtain support through the protrusions 319 to meet the rotation requirements, the friction area between the protrusions 319 and the inner wall of the pen barrel 1 is small, which makes it convenient for the user to rotate.

[0109] Based on the above technical solution, optionally, the press-type pen with controllable pressing sound provided in this application can have a conventional pen refill 2 structure, such as a gel pen refill 2, a fountain pen refill 2, or a ballpoint pen refill 2. Additionally, the pen barrel 1 can be a one-piece structure or a separate structure with two rods connected by threads. A pen cap 36 can also be provided on the slider 32 to meet appearance design requirements and provide a good tactile feel when the user presses the pen cap 36.

[0110] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of the present invention are as follows: The press-type pen with controllable pressing sound provided by the present invention has a sound-emitting element set on the slider and a corresponding sound-emitting mating element set on the pen barrel. During use, by rotating the guide, the guide will drive the slider to rotate together in the pen barrel, thereby realizing the circumferential position change between the sound-emitting element and the sound-emitting mating element. When the guide is rotated to the first position so that the sound-emitting mating element is on the movement path of the sound-emitting element, the moving sound-emitting element will contact the sound-emitting mating element and produce a pressing sound during the sliding of the slider on the guide when the pressing is driven. When the guide is rotated to the second position so that the sound-emitting mating element is off the movement path of the sound-emitting element, the moving sound-emitting element will not contact the sound-emitting mating element and will not produce a pressing sound during the sliding of the slider on the guide when the pressing is driven. This achieves controllable pressing sound to meet the usage requirements of different users and improves the user experience.

[0111] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
