Definitions

  • this object is achieved by means of a manual writing implement of the type defined above, characterised in that the body has a lateral guide which extends between the closed and open positions of the cover, and in that the cover is slidably engaged in the guide in such a way that it remains in a plane coincident with or parallel to the plane of the guide whilst it is moving between the closed and open positions.
  • the body 1 has a generally-parallelepipedal shape with rounded ends 1a and 1b and two opposite principal flat faces 1c.
  • a sliding guide 6 is formed in the lateral wall of the body 1 and in fact consists of two parallel channels 7 defined between the principal walls 1c and an intermediate lateral rib 6 of the body 1.
  • the guide 6 extends uninterruptedly along the whole perimeter of the body 1 and thus also around its ends 1a and 1b.
  • Two parallel appendages 9 bearing respective curved shoes 10 are carried on a cover or cap 11, also normally of moulded plastics material, and are engaged in the two channels 7 of the guide 6.
  • the cap 11 which has a shape conforming generally to that of the body 1 but a length equal to a fraction (for example 1/4) of the length of the latter, is thus guided so that it can slide along the guide 6 in such a way that it can be moved by hand along an annular path around the body 1 whilst remaining constantly parallel to a plane passing through the guide 6, or parallel to the principal walls 1c.
  • the cap 11 can be positioned over the end 1a or at the end 1b of the body 1, as illustrated respectively in Figure 1 and in continuous outline in Figure 2, or in any position intermediate these ends as illustrated with a dotted line in Figure 2.
  • the cap 11 must be moved away from the end 1a and positioned, for example, at the end 1b, sliding along the guide 6.
  • the cap 11 can be positioned in any position intermediate the ends 1a and 1b, which can result in the advantage of a more comfortable grip on the body 1 during use.
