Definitions

  • the invention relates to a writing instrument with a clip, a first clip element being movable relative to a further clip element.
  • Writing instruments e.g. Ballpoint pens are often used as promotional items. Companies can individualize pens by printing the company's company or by printing the company's logo. Such prints are primarily applied to the clip or shaft of the writing instrument.
  • US 6,752,557 B1 discloses a writing instrument with a clip (there 61) and an adjustment knob (there 40) which is guided in the clip.
  • a similar writing instrument is in US 6,773,185 B1 disclosed.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a writing instrument for which an improved advertising effect is tailored, in particular which makes it possible to use an enlarged advertising area without appreciably increasing the external dimensions of the writing instrument.
  • the advertising space should also be at a particularly effective location.
  • a writing instrument includes a barrel and a clip.
  • the shaft has a shaft tip.
  • the clip comprises a first clip element and a second clip element, the second clip element having one end that faces the shaft tip.

Analogously, the writing means can be moved out of the writing instrument in the first position and drawn into the barrel in the second position.
  • the transition from the first position to the second position is carried out by a user actuating a push button on the end of the writing instrument facing away from the shaft tip.
  • a transition from the first position to the second position is possible by rotating a first shaft section relative to a second shaft section.
  • the first and the second clip element move relative to one another, so that the second clip element over the first clip part (in the axial direction with respect to the central axis of the shaft) Element protrudes.
