Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to a writing instrument and in particular an assembly system of two barrels of the writing instrument.
- the assembly of two barrels can be made for example by screwing the two barrels or by snapping ribs and grooves carried by each of the barrels.
- the two barrels can be relatively easily separated from each other. Also, there is a risk that the two barrels are separated from each other while this is not desired, for example in use.
- the present disclosure aims to remedy at least in part these drawbacks.
- the present disclosure relates to a writing instrument extending in a longitudinal direction and having a circumferential direction and a radial direction, the writing instrument comprising a first shaft, a second shaft and a system.
- self-locking assembly assembly for assembling the first barrel with the second barrel, the self-locking assembly system comprising a locking device for locking the first barrel relative to the second barrel in the longitudinal direction and a locking device for locking the locking device .
- the locking device of the first barrel relative to the second barrel being locked by the locking device of the self-locking assembly system, when the first barrel is assembled to the second barrel, it is relatively difficult to separate the two barrels. It is therefore unlikely that the two barrels are unintentionally separated.
- writing instrument can be of any type.
- the locking device may be deformed in the circumferential direction by the locking device.
- the deformation in the circumferential direction of the locking device makes the deactivation of the locking device relatively difficult.
- the locking device may comprise at least one annular rib carried by the first barrel and at least one annular groove carried by the second barrel, or conversely, the annular rib and the annular groove cooperating with each other by commitment.
- annular means a rib or a groove having the shape of a ring or a ring portion.
- the cooperation by engagement can be achieved by complementary shape of the annular rib and the annular groove.
- annular rib or the annular groove when the annular rib or the annular groove is deformed in the circumferential direction by the locking device, it increases the engagement of the rib and the groove and thus locks the locking device.
- the locking device may comprise a slot formed in the first shaft, and two ramps carried by the second shaft, the slot extending in the longitudinal direction and having two longitudinal edges while the two ramps are configured to gradually move away , in the circumferential direction, the longitudinal edges of the slot during the assembly of the first and second barrel.
- the two ramps can be configured to gradually move, in the circumferential direction, the longitudinal edges of the slot during the assembly of the first and second shanks, whereby the annular rib is locked in position inside. of the annular groove.
- the assembly movement of the two barrels is a translational movement of the first barrel relative to the second barrel which allows to lock the two barrels relative to each other and to lock the device blocking at the end of assembly. It is therefore a simple displacement of the first barrel with respect to the second barrel. Locking of the locking device is therefore performed at the end of the displacement of the first barrel relative to the second barrel, in the continuity of the movement of the first barrel relative to the second barrel.
- a maximum space between the two ramps is greater than a maximum space between the two longitudinal edges of the slot before assembly of the two barrels, these spaces being measured in the circumferential direction.
- the space in the circumferential direction between the two ramps increases or decreases when moving in the longitudinal direction between two opposite longitudinal ends of the ramps.
- a maximum thickness in the radial direction of the ramps may be greater than a thickness in the radial direction of an assembly end of the first shaft with the second shank.
- the maximum thickness of the ramps may be at least once the thickness of the assembly end of the first barrel.
- the writing instrument may comprise a window extending in the longitudinal direction formed between the two ramps and a side button received at least partially in the window, the window may comprise guide surfaces of the side button.
- the first shank may be partially housed in the second shank and the ramps may project in the radial direction inside the second shank and be arranged between the longitudinal edges of the slot so as to separate the longitudinal edges of the shank. slot in the circumferential direction.
