Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for writing, marking and / or painting with a liquid.
  • the invention relates to an apparatus for jack-like liquids, which are sometimes referred to as paint inks.
  • JP 2003072276 a device is known, which has a closed with a valve reservoir for writing fluid. About a laterally arranged near the writing tip lever the writing tip can be pushed back into the writing instrument to open the access to the reservoir with the writing fluid.
  • a liquid regulator for supplying a consumer with liquid is known.
  • the flow of writing fluid is controlled by a valve which opens the fluid inlet when a predetermined amount of fluid has been consumed in the writing tip.
  • EP 0 624 483 B1 discloses a writing instrument in which a writing tip is in direct connection with an ink reservoir. Further, a capillary flow passage is provided which is formed separately from the ink supply passage to connect an ink reservoir with a supply chamber.
  • a writing device which has a reservoir for an ink to be discharged and a valve arrangement with which the ink of the writing tip can be supplied.
  • the valve assembly is opened by pressing a writing tip on the document to be described.
  • a paint marker which has a storage chamber and a storage chamber.
  • the paint marker has a movable wall through which liquid from the storage chamber is transported into the storage chamber when the position of the paint marker is changed. In an opposite change in position of the paint marker, the liquid is transported from the storage chamber into the storage chamber.
  • WO 01/26914 Al a device for dispensing writing, drawing, printing, painting liquid or the like is known, in which the liquid to be prescribed is supplied from the liquid chamber via a capillary body to the applicator element.
  • a device for applying a flowable mass with a brush-shaped applicator element has an axially displaceable actuating element, with which a check valve and a metering piston can be actuated.
  • the actuating element is at the same time provided as a sliding sleeve for the applicator element of the device.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a device for writing, marking and / or painting, which avoids with little effort in a reliable way over or under care of the writing tip and remains permanently functional when using paint inks. According to the invention the object is achieved by a device having the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments form the subject of the dependent claims.
  • the apparatus for writing, marking and / or painting with a liquid according to the invention has a main and a working memory for a supply of free liquid.
  • the main memory is coupled via a sealing arrangement with the main memory.
  • the sealing arrangement has a sealing seat and a sealing body which is pressed against the sealing seat in a spring-biased manner and can be moved away from its working position from its sealing position under the action of a force in the axial direction.
  • the sealing body in the device according to the invention is arranged so that the connection between main and working memory is temporarily released by inertial forces, as they arise when shaking the device in the axial direction, the main memory is filled with liquid from the main memory.
  • an applicator is provided which communicates with the working memory in order to discharge fluid.
  • the applicator is sometimes referred to as a writing tip.
  • the applicator is connected to the working memory and is stationary, that is immovable, held relative to the sealing arrangement.

  • the closure cup also has a neck through which the applicator is guided without play. No liquid can escape between the nozzle and the applicator.
  • the buffer is according to the invention in contact with the applicator.
  • the immovable, rigid mounting of the applicator also avoids the use of costly and trouble-prone sealing elements or fits, which otherwise have to be provided for devices with a movable applicator.
  • Particularly suitable is the device according to the invention for paint inks whose pigments settle and therefore can lead to deposits and jamming of the moving components over time.
  • the applicator consists of a longitudinally fibrillated material, which receives the liquid from the main memory and transported to the pad.
  • the applicator has a permeable outer wall, which allows the remplisstechnikssaustauch in the radial direction.

  • the applicator ventilates the main memory.
  • the volume of the main memory is small compared to the volume of the main memory. As a rule, a volume which is not greater than 0.1 to 1.5 cm 3 is sufficient. This reduces the gravity pressure of the liquid column and the volume increase of the residual air in the working memory when heated significantly.
  • the movement of the sealing body out of the seat out into a position in which the working memory is located below the main memory.
  • a freely movable mixing body is provided in the main memory.
