Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of pencil sharpeners for children and in particular pencil sharpeners with visual and / or sound animation or the like.
- Document US2011 / 0099820 discloses a pencil size comprising a front shell in which is provided a receiving orifice of a pencil, a size member positioned in the front shell, a visual animation member and a movement mechanism.
- the animation member comprising a gear with two wheels cooperating with each other.
- the sharpener described above has the disadvantage of including a complex mechanism for moving the animation member.
- the animation member is animated regardless of the direction of rotation of the pencil in the receiving orifice, the animation is simply decorative and does not help the child to use the size- pencil: there is no didactic function and even if the pencil is turned in the wrong direction, which implies that the pencil does not scale, the animation organ comes alive anyway.
- the invention aims to overcome all or part of the disadvantages of the prior art.
- the subject of the invention relates to a pencil sharpener comprising:
- a shell comprising a receiving orifice intended to receive a pencil to be cut
- an animation member comprising a slider, the slider extending at least partially in the shell
- the animation member starts moving only when the user turns the pencil in a particular direction of rotation. Indeed, in one direction of rotation the pencil is intended to be cut and in the other the pencil will not be cut.
- the animation member is set in motion only when the user turns the pencil in the direction of rotation allowing a size.
- the orientation of the slope of the at least one tooth of the toothed wheel that determines said direction of rotation allowing the pencil to be cut.
- the invention therefore teaches the user the operation of a pencil sharpener and requires the user to focus on the action he leads.

- the profile of the at least one tooth is on an upward slope.
- the slope is curved.
- the slider is configured to move on the sloping profile of the at least one tooth of the moving member at least between a first position called the projecting position in which the slider is at the point the lowest of the slope, and a second position called withdrawal position in which the slide is at the highest point of the slope profile.
- the moving member comprises at least two teeth, the profile of each tooth is oriented in one and the same direction.
- the profile of each tooth is progressively inclined.
- the setting in motion of the animation member is independent of the size of the pencil.
- the sharpener can still fulfill its primary function of size.
- the orifice of the moving member is positioned opposite the receiving orifice of the shell. Thus, the moving member is directly rotated by the inserted pen.
- a guide member is formed in the orifice of the moving member.
- the guide member is made of elastomer.
- any form of pencil may be inserted in the pencil sharpener, the guide member is used to interface with the orifice of the moving member.
- the guide member keeps the pencil in the orifice of the moving member.
- the pencil sharpener comprises a return member configured to allow the recall of the animation member when said animation member is moving.
- the return member is elastically deformable.
- the return member is a spring.

- the animation member 4 ' When the animation member 4 'according to the second embodiment is in withdrawal position (not shown), the first portion 4'a of the animation member 4' is set back relative to the slot 5 of the frontal hull 2a. In this retracted position, the return member 8 'is folded and the slide of the second portion 4'b of the animation member 4' bears on the slope of one of the teeth 10 of the organ 9, the support being performed on the highest point of the slope of the tooth 10. The tooth 10 on which the slide of the second portion 4 'b projects is protruding into the groove 7 in which the slide slides.
- the procedure is as described above for the animation member 4 according to the first embodiment, the difference being that the return member extends instead of stretching and folds instead of compressing itself.
