Description

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a drawing instrument, and more particularly to a pen track that can draw undulating lines regularly without using auxiliary tools.

2. Description of Related Art

When users paint posters by hands or making cards, users may draw undulating lines. In a conventional drawing method, the users need to prepare an auxiliary tool such as a ruler, a french curve or a curve plate to enable a pen to abut a contour of the auxiliary tool to draw lines. However, the users need to prepare the auxiliary tool in advance, and the auxiliary tool may be slid when the users apply an excessive force to abut the auxiliary tool. Then, the lines cannot be drawn according to the contour of the auxiliary tool. Furthermore, the auxiliary tool has a limited length, and the users need to constantly move the auxiliary tool to extend the length of line. This is inconvenient in use and a gap may be generated at the convergence of lines. Additionally, the auxiliary tool usually has a specific contour, and the users need to prepare multiple auxiliary tools of different contours when the users want to draw undulating lines of different types. In view of the above-mentioned problems, the conventional drawing method is inconvenient in use and is prone to drawing errors when the users want to draw undulating lines.
To overcome the shortcomings, the present invention tends to provide a pen track to mitigate the aforementioned problems.
The main objective of the invention is to provide a pen track that can reduce frictions for positioning mounts of the pen track that can draw undulating lines regularly without using auxiliary tools.
A pen track in accordance with the present invention has an outer shell, a transmitting group, a rotating group, and a linking group. The transmitting group is mounted in the outer shell and has a portion rotatably abutting a drawing surface. The rotating group is mounted in the outer shell and has a modeling block. The modeling block is mounted in the outer shell, is rotated with the transmitting group, and has an outer surface and a modeling segment annularly formed on the outer surface of the modeling block and having multiple curved surfaces connecting each other. The linking group is mounted in the outer shell and has a pushing protrusion pressed against the modeling segment of the modeling block to move the linking group reciprocally relative to the outer shell along the curved surfaces of the modeling segment.
Other objects, advantages and novel features of the invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

In addition, the holding mount 41 is held in the second mounting segments 112 between the guiding ribs 1122, and the pushing protrusion 413 is pressed against the modeling segment 321 of the modeling block 32 by an elastic force of the spring 44.
With reference to Fig. 4, a second embodiment of a pen track in accordance with the present invention is substantially the same as the first embodiment except for the following features. The pen track has an outer shell 10, a transmitting group 20, a rotating group 30, and a linking group 40. The transmitting element 21 of the transmitting group 20 has a bevel gear 211, two pivot rods 213 and a rotating wheel 214. The rotating wheel 214 is formed with the bevel gear 211 as a single piece, and the pivot rods 213 are respectively formed on and protrude from the bevel gear 211 and the rotating wheel 214 and align with each other.
In use, with reference to Figs. 5, 6 and 7, in the first embodiment of the pen track, when the drawing segment 421 is moved on a drawing surface, the rotating wheel 22 is rotated on the drawing surface with the movement of the drawing segment 421. Because the fixing block 212 of the transmitting element 21 is securely mounted in the fixing hole 221 of the rotating wheel 22, the transmitting element 21 is rotated with the rotating wheel 22. Then, the linking element 23 is rotated with the transmitting element 21 by the engagement between the bevel gears 211, 231 of the transmitting element 21 and the linking element 23. When the bevel gear 231 of the linking element 23 is rotated with the bevel gear 211 of the linking element 21, the bevel gear 311 of the rotating element 31 is rotated with the bevel gear 231 of the linking element 23.
Since the embedded protrusion 323 of the modeling block 32 engages the embedded groove 3121 of the rotating element 31, the modeling block 32 is rotated with the rotating element 31. During the rotating process of the modeling block 32, the modeling segment 321 of the modeling block 32 is rotated and is continuously pushed against the pushing protrusion 413 of the holding mount 41. Then, the holding mount 41 is moved in the guiding groove of the outer shell 10 between the guiding ribs 1122 by the sliding blocks 415 moving along the guiding holes 1121 of the second mounting segments 112. In addition, the spring 44 is continuously compressed and reset when the holding mount 41 is moved relative to the second mounting segments 112 by the modeling block 32. With the pushing of the modeling block 32 and the spring 44, the holding mount 41 is reciprocally moved relative to the outer shell 10. Then, the refill 42 is moved with the holding mount 41, and the drawing segment 421 is moved relative to the drawing surface to draw undulating lines on the drawing surface.
Furthermore, the transmission between the transmitting element 21, the linking element 23, and the rotating element 31 can be chain drive, belt drive, gear or other types, or the rotating element 31 is directly rotated by the transmitting element 21. The transmission between the transmitting element 21, the linking element 23, and the rotating element 31 is not limited in the present invention, as long as the rotating element 31 is rotated with the rotating wheel 22 to rotate the modeling block 32.
When a user wants to replace the modeling block 32, the user can separate the half-casings 11 and hold the sliding blocks 415 to move away the transmitting group 20 to enable the pushing protrusion 413 to disengage from the modeling segment 321 of the modeling block 32. Then, the modeling block 32 can be separated from the mounting rod 312 of the rotating element 31 to for replacement with a new modeling block by departing the holding cap 33 from the mounting rod 312.
According to the above-mentioned features and structural relationships of the two embodiments of the pen track, the pen track has the following advantages.

1. The rotating wheel 214, 22 can be rotated relative to the outer shell 10 on a drawing surface to drive the modeling block 32 to rotate, and the refill 42 can be moved relative to the outer shell 10 with the curved surfaces of the modeling segment 321 to enable the drawing segment 421 to draw undulating lines regularly on the drawing surface without using an auxiliary tool such as a french curve or a curve plate, and this can save time and eliminate inconvenience of preparing the auxiliary tool.
2. When using the pen track in accordance with the present invention, the user only needs to hold and move the outer shell 10 on the drawing surface, and the undulating lines can be regularly drawn on the drawing surface easily by the drawing segment 421 of the refill 42. The user does not need to worry about drawing erroneously when the auxiliary tool is slid.
3. The undulating lines can be continuously drawn on the drawing surface by the transmission between the transmitting group 20, the rotating group 30, and the linking group 40, and the lengths of the undulating lines are not limited by the length of the auxiliary tool and can be extended according to the user's need.
4. The user can draw undulating lines of different types on the drawing surface by replacing modeling blocks of different contours without buying and preparing multiple auxiliary tools of different contours, and this can reduce the time and cost of drawing undulating lines on the drawing surface.
