Definitions

  • the present invention relates to writing instruments.
  • the invention relates to a writing instrument comprising a body extending longitudinally along a central axis Z, an ink tank, a roll having an outer writing surface, said roll being disposed at one of ends of the body, connected to the ink tank, and rotatably mounted about a primary axis.
  • This type of writing instrument is particularly suitable for highlighter pens, because of the width and speed of tracing it allows. It also allows you to apply a pattern or repeated decorative message.
  • the document US-A-3,085,554 relates to a writing instrument of the type described above which comprises a cylindrical writing roll which, when the writing instrument is used, rotates about itself about an axis perpendicular to the central axis of the body.
  • the writing roll has hemispherical ends guided by rounded cavities which allow limited angular movement around the central axis of the body of the writing instrument, in order to obtain writing lines of different thicknesses. .
  • the thickness of the lines is dependent on the holding angle of the body chosen by the user, the writing direction and the angle of the writing roller with respect to this direction. This instrument makes it possible to obtain a line of maximum thickness when the axis of the roll is perpendicular to the writing direction and parallel to the writing surface.
  • the roll is no longer parallel to the sheet and only one end of the roll is in contact therewith.
  • roller writing instruments therefore do not generally provide a great comfort of use, especially when the user wishes to draw a horizontal writing tape of maximum width.
  • the present invention is intended to overcome these disadvantages.
  • the writing instrument can be used with a natural position and allows to have a writing band of maximum width, even if it is inclined.
  • the figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of the writing instrument according to the invention. It comprises a body 10 extending along the central axis Z, of substantially cylindrical shape, one end of which narrows towards the writing roller 12.
  • the body 10 comprises at the opposite end of that of the writing roller 12 an ink tank 14.
  • an ink pad 16 made of a porous material such as foam, which has sufficient permeability for the flow ink.
  • the writing roller 12 is rotatably mounted about a primary axis Y, perpendicular to the central axis Z.
  • the writing roller 12 has an outer radial surface, at least a portion of which makes it possible to deposit the ink on the surface writing.
  • the roll is a hollow cylindrical tube 18 whose width of the outer surface 20 determines the maximum width of the writing tape. But the outer surface could be more or less curved.
  • the writing roller 12 is rotatably mounted about a shaft 22, located in the hollow tube 18 and which defines the primary axis of rotation Y when in the neutral position.
  • the shaft 22 is disposed at each end in a housing 24a, 24b of the body 10 of the writing instrument, and is free to rotate on itself.
  • the shaft 22 comprises a spherical portion 26, whose diameter is greater than that of the shaft 22, and slightly greater than or equal to the minimum diameter of the hollow tube 18.
  • the spherical portion 26 is thus in contact with the inner portion 28 of the wall of the writing roller 12.
  • arms 30a, 30b On each side of the spherical portion 26 extend arms 30a, 30b forming the shaft 22.
  • the arms extend flared, so that the diameter of the end of the arms 30a, 30b is lower than that of the end attached to the spherical portion 26.
  • the arms have recesses 31 which limit the translational movement along the primary axis Y of the shaft 22, through the housing 24a and 24b.
  • the spherical portion 26 and the arms 30a, 30b are of material, or are formed in different molds and then secured.
  • the writing roller 12 is pivotally mounted on the spherical portion 26 about a secondary axis X perpendicular to the primary axis Y and the longitudinal axis Z between the neutral position and a pivoting position.
  • the writing roller 12 forms with the spherical portion 26 a ball joint made possible by an impression 33 made in the inner part of the roller 12.
  • This impression 33 is complementary to the shape of the spherical portion 26, and allows a rotation more easy roll 12 around the shaft 22 along the secondary axis X and primary Y.
  • the axes are all intersecting at a point 32, which is the geometric center of the shaft 22 and the roller 12.
  • This central arrangement of the X axis allows positioning of the roller 12 parallel to the surface of the axis. writing, as soon as one end of the roll comes into contact with it without the need for elastic return means.
  • the figure 2 represents the writing instrument after pivoting the body.
  • the pivoting of the writing roller 12 around the secondary axis X is limited angularly by the arms 30a, 30b forming the shaft 22 and the inner part of the writing roller.
  • the inside diameter of the hollow tube 18 is increasing towards each end of the roll 12 so as to allow greater clearance of the allowed angular movement of the roll 12.
  • the user When the user takes charge of the writing instrument, he can hold the body 10 in a direction inclined with respect to the writing plane.
  • the writing roller 12 comes into contact with the writing plane, it undergoes a translation movement along the longitudinal axis, in the direction of the ink pad 16, due to the user's pressing force.
  • This movement is made possible by the recesses 24a, 24b of elongate form provided in the body 10 of the writing instrument, and in which the arms 30a, 30b of the shaft 22 slide.
  • the roller 12 rotates about itself about the primary axis Y, and the outer surface in contact with the ink pad 16, is reloaded with ink, which is then deposited on the writing plane.
  • the writing roller 12 pivots around the spherical portion 26 so that the entire width of the roll 12 is in contact with the plane writing. This pivoting is limited angularly by the shaft 22 and the inner portion 28 of the wall of the roller which both come into contact at a point, thus preventing a greater pivoting of the roller 12 about the axis X.
  • the shaft 22 and the roller 12 are connected by a single ball joint, and can have rotational or pivotal movements independently of one another.
  • the roller 12 In particular in writing position, that is to say when the body 10 is inclined, the roller 12 is parallel to the writing plane, while the shaft 22 is inclined at an angle substantially identical to the angle of inclination of the body 10.
