    DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
  • These and other aspects of the present invention will become apparent from the following description of the preferred embodiment taken in conjunction with the following drawings. It should be understood that the embodiments described here are only for the purposes of illustration and description and is not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise forms disclosed.
  • As shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the writing pen with ink storage in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention comprises a fiber writing nib 9, a pen body 2, a front holder 8, a back holder 1, a pen cap 10, an ink storage compartment 11, an ink inducing device 12, an air pressure balancing plug 3 and breathable cores. The ink inducing device comprises a transfer core 7 and a relay core 6 which is made of fiber materials. The breathable cores have cylindrical shape, and there are two breathable cores comprising a first breathable core 5 and a second breathable core 4, while the former is in communication with transfer core 7.
  • As shown in Fig. 1, the front holder 8 and the back holder 1 are assembled at two ends of the pen body 2 respectively. And in the pen body 2 are the ink storage compartment 11, the ink inducing device 12 and the writing nib 9 successively, while the ink storage compartment 11 is arranged in the tail end of the pen body 2 and the ink inducing device is arranged in the middle of the pen body 2. The writing nib 9 is arranged at the front end of the pen body 2 with a portion extending out of the front holder 8. The pen cap 10 is assembled at the front end of the pen body 2 and covers the writing nib 9. The ink inducing device 12 connects the ink storage compartment 11 and the writing nib 9 to induce ink from the ink storage compartment 11 to the writing nib 9. Ink in the ink storage compartment 11 may be fluorescent ink, marking ink, whiteboard ink, blackboard ink, correction fluid or any type of marking fluid.
  • The ink storage compartment 11 comprises a closed end and an open end opposite to each other. The closed end of the ink storage compartment 11 is funnel shaped, and at the open end of the ink storage compartment 11 is a air pressure balancing plug 3, which is tightly fitted to the open end. As shown in Fig. 3, the air pressure balancing plug 3 has a through hole of 4mm in diameter and two through holes of 2mm in diameter. The relay core 6 passes through the 4mm through hole and enters into the funnel shaped structure at the closed end of the ink storage pipe 11. The first breathable core 5 and the second breathable core 4 are inserted into the 2mm through holes respectively, to enable their left end inserted into the storage compartment 11 and their right end to ambient air. Further, the first breathable core 5 is connected to the transfer core 7 to enhance the performance of inducing ink.
  • The breathable cores in the writing pen of embodiments of the present invention are made of fiber materials treated by nanopore technology, thus the breathable cores are full of nanopores. Here the nanopores means that the nanopore has a diameter less than 1000 nanometers and measured as nm to be the measuring unit. In various embodiments of the present invention, diameter of the nanopores is in a range of 400 to 800nm, preferably 500nm. Usually, particle diameter of ink is 300 to 350 nm, which is smaller than that of the nanopores, so that air passages are formed in the breathable cores. Besides, due to the selected proper pore diameter, the breathable cores have adequate capability of water absorption to prevent ink leakage. Porosity of the breathable core, i.e., a percentage rate of the total volume of all the nanopores to the volume of the breathable core, is in a range of 50 to 60%, and a preferred percentage is 55%, which can ensure fluent air flow.
  • The breathable cores and the relay core 6 are tightly mated with the through holes on the air pressure balancing plug 3 to prevent ink leakage. On the end surface of the air pressure balancing plug 3, three baffles 13 are arranged for fixing the distance from the transfer core 7.
  • The transfer core 7 is made of cotton batting, and is covered by a layer of plastic film surrounding its outer surface. Cotton batting has good performance of water absorption to prevent liquid leakage. The relay core 6 and the writing nib 9 are inserted into and connected with two ends of the transfer core 7 respectively, and the relay core 6 is spaced from the transfer core 7 with an interval, rather than directly contacts the transfer core 7. Such a design facilitates ink in the relay core 6 to first flow into the transfer core 7, then flow into the writing nib 9, in such a way ink flow in the pen tip 9 can be kept constant, and thus color of the handwriting is more uniform.
  • When writing with the writing pen with ink storage, liquid level in the ink storage compartment 11 drops, and negative pressure in the pipe increases, then ambient air enters into the ink storage compartment 11 through the breathable cores to achieve air pressure balance.
  • In various embodiments of the present invention, the writing pen with ink storage realizes air pressure balance between the ink storage compartment 11 and ambient air by means of the two breathable cores and the air pressure balancing plug 3. The structure of the writing pen is simple, and manufacture process of the breathable cores is already mature, thus the cost is reduced greatly.
  • In various embodiments of the present invention, number of the breathable cores is not limited to two as shown in the above described embodiment, there may be one or three or more breathable cores. Also, shape of the breathable cores is not limited to be cylindrical, but can be square or other shape. Additionally, the writing nib can be formed in various manners, such as a metal nib with a ball or others, etc.
