Definitions
- the invention relates to a pen with a holding part, a cartridge for recording a mine of a predetermined color and a schooner.
- Pins of the aforementioned type are known. Since one with schooner schooner the Mine usually can not see, the known pens are usually with information provided over the color of the mine. This information is generally available on the Schooner or printed on the holding part.
- the poorly printable polypropylene is particularly suitable for the production of pens suitable, because due to its hardness, for example, by injection molding particularly light, thin-walled parts can be produced, which is why the processing is particularly easy.
- Polypropylene is easily dyeable. It could therefore be thought of, the entire pen in the color of the mine run. Such a solution is u.U. for example not desirable for design reasons. In addition, the storage would be at production problematic, because yes all parts of the pen in all occurring mine colors have to be stored.
- DE 38 09 984 A1 shows a writing instrument in which a so-called there Inêtbringelement is held directly from the holding part. Next is a trim ring described which is formed by a separate part. The provision of such a separate Part makes the overall structure of the writing instrument complicated.
- US 5553956 shows a pen according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the invention therefore has the task of the pin of the type mentioned in such a way that the manufacturing process is simple, both in terms of on the processability of the materials used as well as with regard to storage, but still contains information visible from the outside about the mine color.
- the invention is based on the following finding: To an externally visible To get information about the mine color, it is sufficient to use one of the pen components in to execute the mine paint. This component only needs to be visible from the outside. It will as the correspondingly colored component the cartridge chosen because it is a direct functional Has connection with the mine. Since a part of the cartridge is visible from the outside, can the other components (saver and holding part) are of a different color. You must therefore not be stored separately for each occurring mine color. Furthermore They can be designed according to the respective design requirements. A printing or the like is not required.
- the cartridge has an annular projection on which the mine-facing side of the schooner strikes and on the side facing away from the mine Side of the holding part strikes. This configuration ensures that a defined part of the cartridge is visible in any operating state of the pin from the outside.
- This embodiment makes it possible to assemble the pen from a total of only five components, namely the holding part, the cartridge, the spindle, the mine and the More beautiful.
- the assembly of the pen is therefore particularly simple.
- the spindle can be inserted into the cartridge without it one Screwing required.
- the spindle is in this embodiment, namely in the cartridge plugged in while the cartridge is in the state preferred by the bias is located, i. in the state in which the internal thread has the larger diameter has, why it does not mesh with the external thread of the spindle.
- a second step then the cartridge is inserted with the spindle already in it in the holding part, whereby the diameter of the internal thread on the cartridge is reduced so that it meshes with the external thread of the spindle.
- the twist mechanism then functional.
- a part remote from the mine the cartridge is inserted into the holding part and the force that is required, the cartridge to pull out of the holding part is greater than the force that is required remove the saver from the cartridge.
- This configuration ensures that at an axial Pulling apart the holding part on the one hand and the schooner on the other hand, the schooner is withdrawn from the cartridge, whereas the cartridge continues from the holding part is held.
- a part facing away from the mine Cartridge is inserted into the holding part, wherein in Einsteck Scheme on the outside of the Cartridge and / or provided on the inside of the holding part at least one Arretierabsatz is.
- This embodiment is particularly easy on the one hand in production on the other hand, but relatively safe against an unintentional Separate the cartridge from the holding part.
- At least one Arretierabsatz is provided, whose step height is smaller is as the step height of a Arretierabsatzes on the outside of the cartridge and / or on the inside of the holding part in the Einsteck Scheme.
- This embodiment of the invention is based on the consideration that the height a Arretierabsatzes that force determines the axial pulling apart of the mentioned elements is required. The higher the level to be overcome, the larger the force required for cutting.
- the number of locking heels for holding the schooner on the cartridge larger than the number of locking heels for Holding the cartridge is in the holding part.
- This embodiment is based on the consideration that a larger number Arrest heels also provides a greater force against pulling apart.
- the holding part, the cartridge and the schooner are made of polypropylene.
- FIGS. 1 u. 2 To the pin of FIGS. 1 u. 2 includes a sleeve-shaped holding part 10, a cartridge 12, in which there is a mine 14, and a schooner 16. Further, a spindle 18th shown with an external thread 20, which at its the schooner 16 facing the end with a mushroom-shaped projection 22 is held in a receptacle 24 of a refill sleeve 26, and Although axially immovably coupled to the refill sleeve 26, but with respect to the refill sleeve 26 rotatable. This coupling is achieved in that the receptacle 24 is made composed two half-shells 24.1 and 24.2, which engages behind the mushroom-shaped projection 22 Have paragraphs.
- the mine 14 is poured into the refill sleeve 26.
- the spindle 18 has at its end facing away from the mine 14 approaches 30, the Webs 32 abut within the holding part 10 when the holding part 10 with respect to the cartridge 12 is twisted. As a result, the spindle 18 is rotatable, but axially displaceable coupled with the holding part 10.
- the holding part 10 is attached to the end of the cartridge 12 facing away from the mine. to Securing against axial displacement serve three locking lugs 34 with corresponding Arretierab arrangementsn on the cartridge 12. They work with (not shown) designed accordingly Arresting approaches with appropriate Arretierab arrangementsn on the inside of Holding parts 10 together. As a result, the holding part 10 may indeed be rotated relative to the cartridge 12 but is held immovable in the axial direction.
- a Arretieransatz 36 with appropriate Arresting provided, which serves to hold the schooner 16 accordingly.
- step heights of the locking heels for holding the cartridge 12 differ in FIG the holding part 10 on the one hand and holding the schooner 16 on the cartridge 12 on the other hand, so that when a user holds the holding part 10 and the schooner 16 pulls the schooner 16 is withdrawn from the cartridge 12, whereas the cartridge 12 in the holding part 16 remains.
- This effect is further promoted by the fact that for holding the cartridge 12 in the holding part 10 on the cartridge 12 a total of three locking lugs 34 are provided, whereas for holding the schooner 16 on the cartridge 12th only a single Arretieransatz 36 is provided.
- the cartridge 12 has an annular projection 38, on which on the mine facing Side of the schooner 16 and on the side facing away from the mine the holding part 10 strikes, when the pen is fully assembled.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Stift mit einem Halteteil, einer Patrone zum Aufnehmen einer Mine einer vorbestimmten Farbe und einem Schoner.The invention relates to a pen with a holding part, a cartridge for recording a mine of a predetermined color and a schooner.
Stifte der vorgenannten Art sind bekannt. Da man bei aufgestecktem Schoner die Mine in aller Regel nicht sehen kann, sind die bekannten Stifte üblicherweise mit einer Information über die Farbe der Mine versehen. Diese Information wird im allgemeinen auf den Schoner oder auf das Halteteil aufgedruckt.Pins of the aforementioned type are known. Since one with schooner schooner the Mine usually can not see, the known pens are usually with information provided over the color of the mine. This information is generally available on the Schooner or printed on the holding part.
Das Aufdrucken von Informationen ist jedoch bei manchen Materialien problematisch, von denen hier beispielhaft das Polypropylen genannt sei. Es wird aber ausdrücklich darauf hingewiesen, dass die folgenden Ausführungen, die sich auf Polypropylen beziehen, auch für andere schlecht bedruckbare Materialien gelten. However, printing information is problematic for some materials, of which the polypropylene is exemplified here. It becomes explicit noted that the following remarks relating to polypropylene also apply to other poorly printable materials.
Das schlecht bedruckbare Polypropylen ist für die Herstellung von Stiften besonders geeignet, weil auf Grund seiner Härte daraus beispielsweise im Wege des Spritzgusses besonders leichte, dünnwandige Teile hergestellt werden können, weshalb die Verarbeitung besonders einfach ist.The poorly printable polypropylene is particularly suitable for the production of pens suitable, because due to its hardness, for example, by injection molding particularly light, thin-walled parts can be produced, which is why the processing is particularly easy.
Polypropylen ist problemlos färbbar. Es könnte daher daran gedacht werden, den gesamten Stift in der Farbe der Mine auszuführen. Eine solche Lösung ist aber u.U. beispielsweise aus Designgründen nicht erwünscht. Darüber hinaus wäre die Lagerhaltung bei der Produktion problematisch, weil ja alle Teile des Stiftes in allen vorkommenden Minenfarben bevorratet werden müssen.Polypropylene is easily dyeable. It could therefore be thought of, the entire pen in the color of the mine run. Such a solution is u.U. for example not desirable for design reasons. In addition, the storage would be at production problematic, because yes all parts of the pen in all occurring mine colors have to be stored.
Die DE 38 09 984 A1 zeigt ein Schreibgerät, bei dem ein dort so bezeichnetes Tintenaufbringelement unmittelbar vom Halteteil gehalten wird. Weiter ist ein Zierring beschrieben, der von einem separaten Teil gebildet wird. Das Vorsehen eines solchen separaten Teiles macht den Gesamtaufbau des Schreibgerätes kompliziert.DE 38 09 984 A1 shows a writing instrument in which a so-called there Inkaufbringelement is held directly from the holding part. Next is a trim ring described which is formed by a separate part. The provision of such a separate Part makes the overall structure of the writing instrument complicated.
Bei dem Schreibgerät nach der DE 38 30 870 C2 sind mehrere Möglichkeiten für eine Farbinformation vorgesehen. Dazu gehören ein separater Ring, ein sogenannter Flachkörper, der die Form einer Fahne hat, eine zusätzliche Kappe am hinteren Ende und der als Schutzkappe vorgesehene Schoner selbst. Es werden also wiederum entweder separate Teile für die Farbinformation vorgesehen, oder der Schoner selbst wird in der Minenfarbe gehalten, was aber häufig insbesondere aus Designgründen unerwünscht ist.In the writing instrument according to DE 38 30 870 C2 are several possibilities for a color information provided. These include a separate ring, a so-called Flat body, which has the shape of a flag, an additional cap on the back end and the protective cap provided schooner itself. So again, either separate Parts provided for the color information, or the schooner itself is in the mine color held, which is often undesirable, especially for design reasons.
Die US 5553956 zeigt einen Stift nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.US 5553956 shows a pen according to the preamble of claim 1.
Die DE 44 21 609 A1 zeigt einen Stift. Dabei werden keine Angaben über Materialien oder Farben der Einzelteile des Stiftes gemacht.DE 44 21 609 A1 shows a pin. there No information is given about materials or colors of the individual parts of the pen.
Der Erfindung stellt sich daher die Aufgabe, den Stift der eingangs genannten Art derart weiterzubilden, dass das Herstellungsverfahren einfach ist, und zwar sowohl im Hinblick auf die Verarbeitbarkeit der verwendeten Materialien als auch im Hinblick auf die Lagerhaltung, dennoch aber eine von außen sichtbare Information über die Minenfarbe beinhaltet. The invention therefore has the task of the pin of the type mentioned in such a way that the manufacturing process is simple, both in terms of on the processability of the materials used as well as with regard to storage, but still contains information visible from the outside about the mine color.
Erfindungsgemäß wird die gestellte Aufgabe bei einem Stift der eingangs genannten Art durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.According to the task set in a pen of the aforementioned Art solved by the features of claim 1.
Dabei geht die Erfindung von folgender Erkenntnis aus: Um eine von außen sichtbare Information über die Minenfarbe zu erhalten, genügt es, eine der Stiftkomponenten in der Minenfarbe auszuführen. Diese Komponente muss nur von außen sichtbar sein. Es wird als die entsprechend gefärbte Komponente die Patrone gewählt, weil sie eine direkte funktionale Verbindung mit der Mine hat. Da ein Teil der Patrone von außen sichtbar ist, können die übrigen Komponenten (Schoner und Halteteil) von anderer Farbe sein. Sie müssen daher nicht für jede vorkommende Minenfarbe gesondert bevorratet werden. Darüber hinaus können sie den jeweiligen Designanforderungen entsprechend gestaltet sein. Ein Bedrucken oder dgl. ist nicht erforderlich.The invention is based on the following finding: To an externally visible To get information about the mine color, it is sufficient to use one of the pen components in to execute the mine paint. This component only needs to be visible from the outside. It will as the correspondingly colored component the cartridge chosen because it is a direct functional Has connection with the mine. Since a part of the cartridge is visible from the outside, can the other components (saver and holding part) are of a different color. You must therefore not be stored separately for each occurring mine color. Furthermore They can be designed according to the respective design requirements. A printing or the like is not required.
Erfindungsgemäß bevorzugt hat die Patrone einen ringförmigen Ansatz, an dem auf der minenzugewandten Seite der Schoner anschlägt und an dem auf der minenabgewandten Seite das Halteteil anschlägt. Durch diese Ausgestaltung ist gewährleistet, dass ein definierter Teil der Patrone in jedem Betriebszustand des Stiftes von außen sichtbar ist. According to the invention, the cartridge has an annular projection on which the mine-facing side of the schooner strikes and on the side facing away from the mine Side of the holding part strikes. This configuration ensures that a defined part of the cartridge is visible in any operating state of the pin from the outside.
Diese Ausgestaltung erlaubt es, den Stift aus insgesamt nur fünf Komponenten zusammenzusetzen, nämlich dem Halteteil, der Patrone, der Spindel, der Mine und dem Schoner. Das Zusammensetzen des Stiftes ist daher besonders einfach.This embodiment makes it possible to assemble the pen from a total of only five components, namely the holding part, the cartridge, the spindle, the mine and the More beautiful. The assembly of the pen is therefore particularly simple.
Bei die Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist es besonders einfach, den Stift zusammenzusetzen. Es kann nämlich die Spindel in die Patrone eingeschoben werden, ohne dass es einer Schraubbewegung bedarf. Die Spindel wird bei dieser Ausgestaltung nämlich in die Patrone eingesteckt, während die Patrone sich in dem durch die Vorspannung bevorzugten Zustand befindet, d.h. in demjenigen Zustand, in dem das Innengewinde den größeren Durchmesser hat, weshalb es nicht mit dem Außengewinde der Spindel kämmt. In einem zweiten Schritt wird dann die Patrone mit der bereits darin befindlichen Spindel in das Halteteil eingesteckt, wodurch sich der Durchmesser des Innengewindes an der Patrone derart verringert, dass es mit dem Außengewinde der Spindel kämmt. Durch diesen Schritt ist die Drehmechanik dann funktionsfähig.In the embodiment of the invention, it is particularly easy to assemble the pin. It Namely, the spindle can be inserted into the cartridge without it one Screwing required. The spindle is in this embodiment, namely in the cartridge plugged in while the cartridge is in the state preferred by the bias is located, i. in the state in which the internal thread has the larger diameter has, why it does not mesh with the external thread of the spindle. In a second step then the cartridge is inserted with the spindle already in it in the holding part, whereby the diameter of the internal thread on the cartridge is reduced so that it meshes with the external thread of the spindle. Through this step is the twist mechanism then functional.
Weiter kann erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen sein, dass ein minenabgewandter Teil der Patrone in das Halteteil eingesteckt ist und diejenige Kraft, die erforderlich ist, die Patrone aus dem Halteteil herauszuziehen, größer ist als diejenige Kraft, die erforderlich ist, den Schoner von der Patrone abzuziehen.Furthermore, it can be provided according to the invention that a part remote from the mine the cartridge is inserted into the holding part and the force that is required, the cartridge to pull out of the holding part is greater than the force that is required remove the saver from the cartridge.
Durch diese Ausgestaltung ist gewährleistet, dass bei einem axialen Auseinanderziehen des Halteteils einerseits und des Schoners andererseits der Schoner von der Patrone abgezogen wird, wohingegen die Patrone weiterhin von dem Halteteil gehalten wird. This configuration ensures that at an axial Pulling apart the holding part on the one hand and the schooner on the other hand, the schooner is withdrawn from the cartridge, whereas the cartridge continues from the holding part is held.
Dazu kann erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen sein, dass ein minenabgewandter Teil der Patrone in das Halteteil eingesteckt ist, wobei im Einsteckbereich auf der Außenseite der Patrone und/oder auf der Innenseite des Halteteils mindestens ein Arretierabsatz vorgesehen ist.For this purpose, it can be provided according to the invention that a part facing away from the mine Cartridge is inserted into the holding part, wherein in Einsteckbereich on the outside of the Cartridge and / or provided on the inside of the holding part at least one Arretierabsatz is.
Diese Ausgestaltung ist einerseits bei der Produktion besonders einfach zusammenzusetzen, andererseits aber vergleichsweise sicher gegen ein unbeabsichtigtes Trennen der Patrone von dem Halteteil.This embodiment is particularly easy on the one hand in production on the other hand, but relatively safe against an unintentional Separate the cartridge from the holding part.
Erfindungsgemäß ist weiter bevorzugt vorgesehen, dass auf der Innenseite des Schoners und/oder auf der Außenseite der Patrone in einem Bereich, auf den der Schoner aufgesteckt wird, mindestens ein Arretierabsatz vorgesehen ist, dessen Stufenhöhe kleiner ist als die Stufenhöhe eines Arretierabsatzes auf der Außenseite der Patrone und/oder auf der Innenseite des Halteteils in dem Einsteckbereich.According to the invention it is further preferred that on the inside of the Schooner and / or on the outside of the cartridge in an area on which the schooner is plugged, at least one Arretierabsatz is provided, whose step height is smaller is as the step height of a Arretierabsatzes on the outside of the cartridge and / or on the inside of the holding part in the Einsteckbereich.
Diese Ausgestaltung der Erfindung geht von der Überlegung aus, dass die Höhe eines Arretierabsatzes diejenige Kraft bestimmt, die zum axialen Auseinanderziehen der genannten Elemente erforderlich ist. Je höher die zu überwindende Stufe, umso größer die zum Trennen erforderliche Kraft.This embodiment of the invention is based on the consideration that the height a Arretierabsatzes that force determines the axial pulling apart of the mentioned elements is required. The higher the level to be overcome, the larger the force required for cutting.
Zusätzlich oder alternativ kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Zahl der Arretierabsätze zum Halten des Schoners auf der Patrone größer als die Zahl der Arretierabsätze zum Halten der Patrone in dem Halteteil ist.Additionally or alternatively, it may be provided that the number of locking heels for holding the schooner on the cartridge larger than the number of locking heels for Holding the cartridge is in the holding part.
Diese Ausgestaltung geht von der Überlegung aus, dass eine größere Zahl Arretierabsätze auch eine größere Kraft gegen ein Auseinanderziehen bietet.This embodiment is based on the consideration that a larger number Arrest heels also provides a greater force against pulling apart.
Aus bereits oben erläuterten Gründen ist es schließlich erfindungsgemäß bevorzugt, dass das Halteteil, die Patrone und der Schoner aus Polypropylen sind.For reasons already explained above, it is finally preferred according to the invention, that the holding part, the cartridge and the schooner are made of polypropylene.

Zu dem Stift nach den Fig. 1 u. 2 gehört ein hülsenförmiges Halteteil 10, eine Patrone
12, in der sich eine Mine 14 befindet, sowie ein Schoner 16. Ferner ist eine Spindel 18
mit einem Außengewinde 20 gezeigt, die an ihrem dem Schoner 16 zugewandten Ende mit
einem pilzköpfigen Ansatz 22 in einer Aufnahme 24 einer Minenhülse 26 gehalten ist, und
zwar axial unverschieblich mit der Minenhülse 26 gekoppelt, jedoch bezüglich der Minenhülse
26 drehbar. Diese Kopplung wird dadurch erreicht, dass die Aufnahme 24 sich aus
zwei Halbschalen 24.1 und 24.2 zusammensetzt, die den pilzförmigen Ansatz 22 hintergreifende
Absätze aufweisen.To the pin of FIGS. 1 u. 2 includes a sleeve-shaped holding
Die Mine 14 ist in die Minenhülse 26 eingegossen.The
Mit dem Außengewinde 20 der Spindel 18 kämmt ein Innengewinde 28 der Patrone
12, das sich wiederum aus zwei halbschalenförmigen Segmenten 28.1 und 28.2 zusammensetzt.
In dem in Fig. 2 gezeigten Zustand, d.h. dann, wenn die Patrone 12 nicht in das
Halteteil 10 hineingesteckt ist, sind die beiden Segmente 28.1 und 28.2 soweit auseinander,
dass ihr Innengewinde nicht mit dem Außengewinde 20 der Gewindespindel 18 kämmt,
wenn man die Gewindespindel 18 in die Patrone 20 einschiebt. Dadurch ist ein besonders
einfaches Montieren der Gewindespindel 18 in der Patrone 12 möglich.With the
Ist die Gewindespindel 18 in die Patrone 12 hineingeschoben worden, und zwar so
weit, dass das Außengewinde der Gewindespindel 18 im Bereich des Innengewindes 28
liegt, so kann durch einfaches Einschieben dieser Anordnung in das Halteteil 10 erreicht
werden, dass sich das Innengewinde 28 durchmessermäßig verkleinert und in Eingriff mit
dem Außengewinde 20 gebracht wird. If the threaded
Die Spindel 18 hat an ihrem der Mine 14 abgewandten Ende Ansätze 30, die an
Stegen 32 innerhalb des Halteteils 10 anschlagen, wenn das Halteteil 10 bezüglich der Patrone
12 verdreht wird. Dadurch ist die Spindel 18 zwar drehfest, aber axial verschieblich
mit dem Halteteil 10 gekoppelt.The
Das Halteteil 10 ist auf das minenabgewandte Ende der Patrone 12 aufgesteckt. Zur
Sicherung gegen Axialverschiebung dienen drei Arretieransätze 34 mit entsprechenden
Arretierabsätzen an der Patrone 12. Sie wirken mit (nicht gezeigten) entsprechend ausgestalteten
Arretieransätzen mit entsprechenden Arretierabsätzen auf der Innenseite des
Halteteils 10 zusammen. Dadurch kann das Halteteil 10 bezüglich der Patrone 12 zwar verdreht
werden, ist aber in Axialrichtung unverschieblich gehalten.The holding
In gleicher Weise ist an der Patrone 12 ein Arretieransatz 36 mit entsprechendem
Arretierabsatz vorgesehen, der zum entsprechenden Halten des Schoners 16 dient.Similarly, on the
Wenngleich dies der Zeichnung nicht ohne weiteres zu entnehmen ist, so
unterscheiden sich die Stufenhöhen der Arretierabsätze für das Halten der Patrone 12 in
dem Halteteil 10 einerseits und das Halten des Schoners 16 auf der Patrone 12 andererseits,
so dass dann, wenn ein Benutzer das Halteteil 10 festhält und an dem Schoner 16
zieht, der Schoner 16 von der Patrone 12 abgezogen wird, wohingegen die Patrone 12 in
dem Halteteil 16 verbleibt. Dieser Effekt wird darüber hinaus noch dadurch gefördert, dass
zum Halten der Patrone 12 in dem Halteteil 10 an der Patrone 12 insgesamt drei Arretieransätze
34 vorgesehen sind, wohingegen zum Halten des Schoners 16 auf der Patrone 12
nur ein einziger Arretieransatz 36 vorgesehen ist.Although this is not apparent from the drawing, so
The step heights of the locking heels for holding the
Die Patrone 12 weist einen ringförmigen Ansatz 38 auf, an dem auf der minenzugewandten
Seite der Schoner 16 und auf der minenabgewandten Seite das Halteteil 10 anschlägt,
wenn der Stift vollständig zusammengesetzt wird. Der Ansatz 38 ist mithin in jeder
Betriebsstellung von außen sichtbar. Um einem Benutzer eine Information über die Farbe
der Mine 14 zu geben, ist daher erfindungsgemäß die Patrone 12 in der Farbe der Mine 14
ausgeführt, so dass der Benutzer, der ja den Ansatz 38 in jeder Betriebsstellung sehen
kann, ohne weiteres eine Information über die Farbe der Mine 14 erhält. The
Die anderen Stiftkomponenten, insbesondere der Schoner 16 und das Halteteil 10,
aber auch die Spindel 18 können in beliebiger Farbe ausgeführt werden. Da eine Bedruckung
zum Anbringen der Farbinformation nicht erforderlich ist, können auch alle Stiftkomponenten
aus Materialien hergestellt sein, die eine besonders einfache Verarbeitung
ermöglichen und für den Stift mit seiner Drehmechanik besonders geeignet sind. Dazu zählt
insbesondere Polypropylen, weshalb abgesehen von der Mine 14 sämtliche Komponenten
des in der Zeichnung dargestellten Stiftes aus Polypropylen sind.The other pin components, in particular the
Der Vollständigkeit halber sei an dieser Stelle darauf hingewiesen, dass im Gegensatz zu einem Bedrucken oder Prägen von Polypropylen-Teilen ein Färben problemlos ist.For completeness, it should be noted at this point that in contrast dyeing is trouble-free for printing or embossing polypropylene parts.
Da - abgesehen von der Patrone - alle Stiftkomponenten in beliebiger Farbe ausgeführt
werden können, muss nicht für jede Minenfarbe eine gesonderte Lagerhaltung stattfinden.
Vielmehr muss jeweils nur die Patrone 12 in allen vorkommenden Minenfarben bevorratet
werden.Aside from the cartridge, all pen components are in any color
There is no need for separate storage for each mine color.
Rather, only the
Durch die beschriebene und in der Zeichnung dargestellte Verbindung des Schoners
16 mit der Patrone 12 einerseits sowie die rückwärtige Verkapselung der Mine 14 durch die
Führung der Minenhülse 26 in der Patrone 12 ist eine Dichtigkeit gegeben, die auch die
Verwendung flüchtiger Bestandteile, wie Isoparaffine und flüchtige Silikonöle, in der Mine 14
erlaubt.By the described and shown in the drawing compound of the
Das in Fig. 3 dargestellte Ausführungsbeispiel entspricht im wesentlichen dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach den Figuren 1 u. 2, weshalb dieselben Bezugszeichen verwendet werden.The embodiment shown in Fig. 3 corresponds essentially to the Embodiment of Figures 1 u. 2, for which reason the same reference numerals are used become.
Der einzige Unterschied liegt darin, dass anstelle der Minenhülse 26 ein Kolben 40
vorgesehen ist und dass die Mine 14 nicht in die Minenhülse, sondern direkt in die Patrone
12 eingegossen ist. Dadurch ist die Spindel 18 nur dazu in der Lage, über den Kolben 40
die Mine 14 aus der Patrone 12 herauszuschieben, wohingegen sie die Mine 14 nicht wieder
zurückziehen kann. Im Gegensatz dazu kann bei der Ausgestaltung nach den Figuren 1
u. 2 die Spindel 18 die Minenhülse 26 auch zurückziehen, womit auch die Mine 14 wieder in
die Patrone hineingezogen wird. The only difference is that instead of the
