Definitions
- the invention relates to a writing utensil with a writing tip holding a shaft portion and a cap for covering the writing tip from a first engagement position to an end position on the shaft part.
- Such writing instruments are known in various forms, especially as a fountain pen.
- the cap is screwed onto the shaft part for storing the writing utensil, in order to protect the writing tip against damage and, in particular for fountain pens, to prevent the drying of the writing fluid.
- the covering of the writing tip by means of the screwed-on cap makes it possible to insert the writing utensil into a jacket pocket OA without the danger of the article of clothing being soiled.
- the cap In order for the cap to fulfill its sealing function, the user should always screw it to the end position on the shaft part.
- a writing utensil of the type mentioned is designed according to the invention in such a way that, when the cap is screwed on from an intermediate position lying between the first-engagement position and the end position, until reaching the end position, a resistance against screwing-on which is greater than that prevails Resistance when unscrewing from the first engagement position to the intermediate position.
- the greater resistance to screwing can be generated by a spring device acting on the cap.
- a spring device acting on the cap has, for example, a spring acting in the axial direction of the shaft part, for example in the form of a corrugated spring washer.
- the mutually engaging threaded portions of shaft portion and cap can be formed over their entire lengths so that the friction acting between them due to the threaded engagement is substantially equal, while the increased Aufschraubwiderstand by the effective only when reaching the intermediate position spring means is caused.
- Such a spring device is subject to a much lower wear than, for example, threaded portions which are exposed by appropriate shaping during engagement with each other increased friction.
- the spring device can have a sleeve ring which can be displaced axially against the spring force, with which the cap engages in the intermediate position, so that it is moved away from a contact shoulder of the shaft part as it is screwed on against the force of the spring.
- the end position may be formed, for example, by abutment of a stop surface, such as the cap opening surrounding the end face of the cap on a shoulder of the shaft portion.
- FIG. 1 shows a partial section of a fountain pen with the cap screwed on.
- FIG. 2 shows, in a simplified partial view, the engagement region of the shaft part and cap of the fountain pen of FIG. 1 with the cap screwed onto the intermediate position, with the ink conductor and the ink cartridge omitted.
- Figure 3 in a representation corresponding to Figure 2, the screwed into the end position cap.
- the fountain pen shown in Figure 1 has a shaft portion of a normally closed at the rear end, rohrformigen container 1, in the front end of a threaded hulse 2 is screwed, which in turn in the usual way an internal thread for receiving the writing spring 4-bearing ink guide 3 contains, on the rear end of an ink cartridge 5 is attached.
- the threaded sleeve 2 carries on its protruding from the container 1 part of an external thread on which the cap is screwed, which has a cap member 10 to which a clip 11 is attached in the usual way.
- a cap ring 12 consisting of metal is placed thereon and ends in a front end face 13.
- Such a structure is common for fountain pens and other writing instruments.
- annular space 8 is formed on the shaft part between the container 1 and threaded sleeve 2, which at the front end, so that the External thread for screwing the cap nearer end, to an annular shoulder 8 "( Figure 3) and at the rear end to an annular shoulder 8 'extends, from which the container 1, the annular space 8 partially covers the front a corrugated spring washer 7 is used, which is supported on the one hand on the rear annular shoulder 8 'of the annular space and on the other hand on a support ring 6, which is located in the annular space 8 and unscrewed or not screwed into the intermediate position cap by the force of the spring washer. 7 held in contact with the front annular shoulder 8 ".
- the inner diameter of the support ring 6 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the threaded sleeve 2 in the region of the annular space 8, so that the support ring on the threaded sleeve can be moved back and forth.
- In the front region of the support ring 6 has a radially outwardly projecting, circumferential rib region or a shoulder.
- the spring washer 7 is then printed together as a result of engagement of the cap ring 12 and sleeve ring 6 and the resulting axial displacement of the support ring, whereby an acting in the axial direction of the shaft part resistance to screwing, ie the resistance to the screwing takes for the Users notice bar against the resistance, which has worked when screwing from the first engagement position to the intermediate position.
- the cap is screwed to its end position when the end face 13 of the cap ring 12 has come to rest on the end face 9 of the container 1 of the shaft part ( Figure 3). In this position, the cap is kept loaded by the action of the spring washer 7 in the axial direction, so that the risk of accidental release of the cap is significantly reduced.
