Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Stift, insbesondere einen Schreibstift. Herkömmliche Stifte umfassen üblicherweise einen stabförmigen Schaft, dessen Vorderende sich zu einer Spitze verjüngt oder der eine solche Spitze trägt, wobei aus diesem zentral eine Mine, also etwa eine Bleimine, eine Kugelschreibermine o. dgl. vorsteht. Ein Stift wird von den Benutzern in aller Regel am vorderen Ende mit Daumen, Zeige- und Mittelfinger gehalten. Eine Variierung des Abstandes des Stiftes bzw. seiner Mine zu einer Schreibunterlage erfordert bei unveränderter Griffposition am vordersten Schaftende eine veränderte Haltung der Hand. Dies kann für manche Personen etwa aus anatomischen Gründen schwierig sein. Bei Schülern, die das Schreiben erlernen, ist eine entspannte Haltung der Hand ausschlaggebend für ein gutes Schriftbild und den Lernerfolg insgesamt. Eine im Vergleich zur Stiftgröße ungünstige Hand-und Fingeranatomie oder etwa gesundheitliche Einschränkungen können diesem Ziel entgegenstehen.The invention relates to a pen, in particular a pen. Conventional pins usually comprise a rod-shaped shaft, the front end of which tapers to a point or carries such a tip, from which centrally a lead, so as a lead, a ballpoint pen refills o. The like. Protrudes. A pen is held by the users usually at the front end with thumb, index and middle finger. A variation of the distance of the pin or its lead to a writing pad requires a changed attitude of the hand with unchanged grip position at the front end of the shaft. This may be difficult for some people for some anatomical reasons. For students learning to write, a relaxed hand position is crucial for a good typeface and overall learning. An unfavorable hand and finger anatomy compared to the size of the pen or health restrictions may prevent this goal.
Davon ausgehend ist es die Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen Stift vorzuschlagen, der hier Abhilfe schafft.On this basis, it is the object of the invention to propose a pen that provides a remedy.
Diese Aufgabe wird mit einem Stift gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst. Dieser umfasst einen hülsenförmigen Schaft und einen innerhalb des Schafts angeordneten, mit seinem vorderen Ende mit einem Überstand aus dem Schaft herausragenden und eine Mine tragenden Innenteil, wobei Schaft und Innenteil axial verstellbar miteinander verbunden sind. Diese Ausgestaltung ermöglicht es, dass der Überstand des Innenteils je nach Bedarf vergrößert oder verkleinert werden kann, so dass das Schreiben mit einer für den Benutzer entspannten oder einer etwa aus gesundheitlichen oder anatomischen Gegebenheiten einzunehmenden Handhaltung problemlos möglich ist.This object is achieved with a pin according to
Um das Einstellen einer z.B. für eine bestimmte Schreibsituation günstige Verstellposition des Innenteils zu erleichtern, ist am Stift eine Anzeigevorrichtung vorhanden. Eine leicht herzustellende Variante einer solchen Einrichtung ist eine sich in Axialrichtung erstreckende Markierung an einem Längsabschnitt des Innenteils, der sich bei dessen Verstellung zumindest teilweise in den Schaft hinein bzw. heraus bewegt. Die Größe bzw. die Länge des sichtbaren Teils der Markierung ist dabei mit der Länge des Überstands des Innenteils korreliert. Die Markierung kann etwa von axial beabstandeten Elementen wie Strichen oder Punkten oder einem sich in Axialrichtung verändernden Farbverlauf gebildet sein.In order to set a e.g. To facilitate convenient adjustment position of the inner part for a particular writing situation, a display device is present on the pin. An easily manufactured variant of such a device is an axially extending marking on a longitudinal section of the inner part, which moves at least partially into the shaft when it is moved in or out. The size or the length of the visible part of the marking is correlated with the length of the projection of the inner part. The marking may be formed approximately from axially spaced elements such as lines or dots or an axially changing color gradient.
Die Verstellung des Innenteils kann auf vielfältige Art und Weise erfolgen. So ist es denkbar, dass der Schaft ein Innengewinde trägt, das mit einem Außengewinde des Innenteils zusammenwirkt, so dass eine Relativdrehung der genannten Teile einen Vorschub oder Rückschub des Innenteils bewirkt. Möglich ist aber auch, dass Innenteil und Schaft axial verschiebbar miteinander verbunden sind.The adjustment of the inner part can be done in many ways. Thus, it is conceivable that the shaft carries an internal thread, which cooperates with an external thread of the inner part, so that a relative rotation of said parts causes a feed or retraction of the inner part. It is also possible that the inner part and the shaft are connected axially displaceable.
Damit eine einmal gewählte Verstellposition des Innenteils während des Schreibens nicht verändert wird, kann beispielsweise die Bewegungskoppelung zwischen Innenteil und Schaft schwergängig ausgeführt sein, so dass sie dem üblichen Schreibdruck stand hält. Bei einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung ist jedoch eine Rasteinrichtung vorgesehen, mit der Innenteil und Schaft in unterschiedlichen Relativpositionen axialfest aneinander fixierbar sind. Von Vorteil ist dabei, dass Innenteil und Schaft leichtgängig miteinander verbunden sein können, so dass eine Verstellung des Innenteils mit geringem Kraftaufwand möglich ist.Thus, a once selected adjustment position of the inner part is not changed during writing, for example, the movement coupling between the inner part and the shaft be made stiff, so that it withstands the usual writing pressure. In a preferred embodiment However, a latching device is provided, with the inner part and shaft are axially fixed to each other in different relative positions. The advantage here is that the inner part and shaft can be easily connected to each other, so that an adjustment of the inner part with little effort is possible.

Ein erfindungsgemäßer Stift umfasst ein Innenteil 1 sowie einen hülsenförmigen Schaft 2. Das Innenteil 1 ist im Wesentlichen stabförmig ausgestaltet und ist vom Schaft 2 umgriffen. Das Innenteil 1 steht aus dem vorderen Ende des Schafts 2 mit einem Überstand 5 vor. Der Überstand 11 verjüngt sich zu einer Spitze 3, kann aber auch eine andere Form haben. Zentral im Innenteil 1 ist eine Mine 4 gelagert, die aus der Spitze 3 vorsteht. Das Innenteil 1 kann prinzipiell beliebig gestaltet sein, etwa wie ein mechanischer Stift, bei dem die Mine über einen Vorschubmechanismus (nicht dargestellt) bewegbar ist. Die Mine 4 kann auch axialfest im Innenteil 1 gelagert sein und etwa eine Kugelschreibermine oder dergleichen sein. Der Schaft 2 ist gegenüber dem Innenteil 1 axial beweglich an diesen gehalten. Das hintere Ende des Innenteils 1 ist radial verbreitert, wodurch eine in Richtung der Spitze 3 weisende Radialschulter 11 gebildet ist. Der Schaft 2 weist an seinem hinteren Ende einen Abschnitt mit vergrößertem Innendurchmesser auf, wodurch ebenfalls eine Radialschulter 12 gebildet ist. Die beiden Radialschultern 11, 12 wirken als Anschlagflächen zusammen, wodurch die hintere Axialposition des Schafts 2 vorgegeben ist. Der Schaft 2 ist aber auch, zumindest um eine gewisse Strecke, in Umfangsrichtung 13 drehbar am Innenteil gelagert.An inventive pin comprises an
Am Innenteil 1 ist eine Rasteinrichtung vorhanden, die eine Relativverschiebung von Innenteil 1 und Schaft 2 in vorgegebenen Rastpositionen erlaubt. Die Rasteinrichtung ist nach Art eines Rastgesperres ausgestaltet, wobei ein in Form einer in Draufsicht kreisrunden Noppe 6 ausgestaltetes Rastelement mit Rastausnehmungen 7 am Innenteil 1 zusammen wirkt. Die Rastausnehmungen 7 sind in die Außenumfangsfläche 8 des Innenteils 1 eingebracht. Die Noppe 6 steht aus der Innenumfangsfläche 9 des Schafts 2 vor und greift jeweils in einer der Rastausnehmungen 7 ein. Die Rastausnehmungen 7 sind in einer Axialreihe, d.h. in Axialrichtung 10 hintereinander angeordnet. Die Ausnehmungen 7 sind in Axialrichtung 10 jeweils von 2 sich in Umfangsrichtung 13 erstreckenden Stegen 14 flankiert. Die Oberseite 15 der Stege 14 fluchtet mit der Außenumfangsfläche 8 des Innenteils und weist die gleiche Krümmung wie diese auf. In einer Umfangsrichtung 13, nämlich in der in

Wenn bei einer Verdrehung der Schaft 2 in Umfangsrichtung 13b die Noppe 6 an einen Trennsteg 17 anschlägt, ist für den Benutzer ein weiterer Drehwiderstand zu überwinden. Wird die Noppe 6 an einem Trennsteg 17 vorbeibewegt, wird der Wandabschnitt 26 ein weiteres Stück in Richtung des Pfeiles 33 nach innen abgelenkt, so dass schließlich die Noppe 6 in den zweiten Teil 19 einer Rastausnehmung 7 gelangt. In dieser Situation ist das Innenteil 1 sowohl in beiden Umfangsrichtungen 13a,b als auch in Axialrichtung 10 im Schaft 1 fixiert.If during a rotation of the
Um die jeweilige Axialposition des Innenteils 1 relativ zum Schaft 2 deutlich erkennbar zu machen, ist an einem Längsabschnitt 34 am hinteren Ende des Innenteils 1 eine Markierung in Form von in Umfangsrichtung 13 verlaufenden und in Axialrichtung 10 im Raster der Rastausnehmungen 7 beabstandeten Querstrichen 35 vorhanden. Der Längsabschnitt 34 wird bei der Verstellung des Innenteils 1 von dem Schaft 2 je nach Rastposition mehr oder weniger überdeckt. Bei dem dargestellten Beispiel sind insgesamt sieben Rastausnehmungen 7 und sieben Querstriche 35 vorhanden. In der in
