Definitions

  • the invention relates to a writing instrument, in particular a paint marker.
  • Paints to be applied with such writing or marking devices have the property that color pigments contained in the paints settle after some time. This settling can not be prevented in principle in particular if the specific gravity of the color pigments is greater than that of the solvent in which the color pigments are contained. Furthermore, the paint must be low viscosity so that it can be applied using conventional fiber wicks that serve as paint conductors or applicator elements. In a pantry, in which a supply of paint or ink is added, therefore, there are bullets, with the aid of which the paint can be shaken so that the discontinuation of the color pigments can be reversed.
  • Paint markers operating with valves are known, in which a valve is opened by pressing on an applicator tip, whereby the lacquer flows from the storage chamber into a capillary accumulator made of foam material or capillary material, from which capillary accumulator is subsequently written.
  • a peculiarity of such well-known paint markers is that when writing the ink flow emaciated when the ink in the capillary slowly comes to an end. By pressing on the applicator tip must therefore be constantly provided for replenishment, which affects the use. Excessive pressure on the applicator may overfill the capillary reservoir, causing the marker to spill. The color pigments settle in the capillary reservoir, so that the capillary accumulator becomes contaminated with pigments over time.
  • a peculiarity of the known writing instrument is that must be pumped several times before writing, which on the one hand is uncomfortable and on the other hand requires care, so that no overfilling of the annular chamber. In addition, there is a risk of splashing through the downwardly open annular chamber.
  • a writing instrument is described with a container for free liquid, which contains a capillary through a capillary storage capillary applicator element and operated by the applicator valve assembly. Without exerting a compressive force on the applicator element, a first valve connecting the applicator element with an intermediate chamber remains closed while a second valve connecting the intermediate chamber with the fluid reservoir is opened. If the application element is subjected to moderate pressure, the first valve is opened. At high pressure, the second valve is closed.
  • the invention has for its object to further develop a generic writing instrument such that comfortable and without danger of inking pigment ink can be prescribed.
  • the preferably capillary-shaped storage chamber is filled at the beginning of the application process and emptied after completion of the application process.
  • the volume of the storage chamber is dimensioned such that a filling is sufficient for a normally incurred order process or operation.
  • the fact that the storage chamber is emptied after completion of a job operation no pigments can settle in the storage chamber, so that even after long use, a perfect function of the storage chamber and thus the device is guaranteed.
  • the amount of liquid in the storage chamber can advantageously be shaken up at any time with the aid of balls located there.
  • FIG. 1 to 3 . 5 and 6 represent longitudinal sections through different embodiments of a writing instrument according to the invention.
  • the FIG. 4 shows diagrams for explaining the function of the writing instrument.
  • a writing instrument includes a housing 10 that includes a cylindrical end portion 12 that terminates in an end wall 14.
  • the end wall 14 has a central opening, from which protrudes a projection 16 which carries in an axial passage opening a capillary liquid conductor 18 which terminates in an applicator element 20 or is formed integrally therewith.
  • a cylinder 22 formed axial projection 22 of a generally designated 24 actuating member through which terminates in a wall 26 forming a movable end wall.
  • the operating member 24 includes a transverse wall 27, which connects the cylinder 22 with a cylindrical outer wall 28 and, for example, consists only of spokes which penetrate corresponding recesses in the cylindrical projection 16 of the housing 10.
  • the cylindrical outer wall 28 surrounds the cylindrical end portion 12 of the housing and is funnel-shaped to the liquid conductor 18 and the output member 20 so that their front end portion 30 surrounds the liquid conductor 18 and the applicator member 20.
  • the actuating member 24 is slidable with its end portion 30 relative to the ink guide 18, wherein air can flow into the interior of the actuating part 24 by an axial ribbing.
  • the movable wall 26 is preferably provided along its outer periphery with a sealing ring 31, so that they in the in Fig. 1 shown position sealingly on the inner wall of the housing 10 is present.
  • the inner edge of the end wall 14 is preferably provided with a sealing ring 32_, so that the inner edge of the end wall 14 is sealingly guided on the outside of the neck 22.
  • the outer side of the projection 22, the inside of the cylindrical end portion 12, the end wall 14 and the movable wall 26 define a storage chamber 34, which in the illustrated state of a formed in the housing 10 storage chamber 36 in which a supply of ink or paint liquid is added , is separated.
  • a capillary 38 is received, which consists of elastically compressible, capillary material.
  • beads 46 may be arranged with which in the storage chamber 36 located ink can be shaken.
  • the ink guide 18, which is preferably held in the projection 16 of the housing 10, protrudes into the cylinder 22 in such a way that it is in direct contact with the inner wall of the cylinder 22 and thus in direct contact with the writing passage 42 in the region of the writing passage 42.
  • the ink guide 18 is preferably movably guided in the cylinder 22 such that an air path 48 is formed between it and the inner wall of the projection 22, so that the storage chamber 34 is connected to the environment through the air passage 44, the air path 48 and further fürström penlässe.

  • the volume of ink consumed from the storage chamber 36 is replaced by air flowing through the air path 48 and the air passage 44 into the storage chamber 34.
  • the actuator 24 is according to Fig. 1 shifted down to a lower end position in which the applicator member 20 is received protected within the end portion 30 and the volume of the storage chamber 34 and the capillary 38 by moving down the movable wall 26 is minimal.
  • the writing passage 42 moves through the sealing ring 32 of the end wall 14, so that the writing passage 42 is separated from the storage chamber 34.
  • the outer circumference of the movable wall 26 moves into the area of the overflow grooves 40, so that due to the compression of the capillary memory 38, ink pushed out of these flows back into the storage chamber 36. It is advantageous if the axial length of the Kochströmnuten 40 is tuned to the possible stroke of the actuating member 24 such that in accordance with Fig. 1 lowest rest position of the actuating member 24 of the sealing ring 31 has the overflow grooves 40 completely run over and the interior of the storage chamber 34 is in turn sealed against the storage chamber 36.
