Description
SPECIFICATION
Brush-like writing instrument
The present invention relates to a writing or painting instrument having a brush or brushlike member.
Writing instruments are known having a brush point which may be saturated with a liquid material such as ink and the like, which liquid material is supplied to the base part of the brush from a container incorporated into the writing instrument. However, such known writing instruments have the disadvantage that it takes a relatively long time to saturate the brush point with the liquid material. In addition, only a small quantity of liquid may be held by the brush point. In use, these known instruments do not have a smooth feel since there is a significant difference in the amount of ink required in the brush point when writing or painting at different rates.
Writing or painting instruments according to the invention are provided with an elongated ink guide conduit from the top or base portion of the brush member to a depth substantially corresponding to the mid portion of the brush member.
In accordance with the invention there is provided a writing or painting instrument having a brush or brush-like member to receive a liquid material from a liquid reservoir incorporated into the instrument, wherein an elongated liquid guide conduit is provided from the top or base portion of the brush member to a depth within the brush member substantially corresponding to a longitudinal mid portion of the brush member, a liquid flow path being provided from the liquid reservoir to the liquid guide conduit.
Embodiments of the invention are hereinafter described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a writing instrument in accordance with the present invention;
Figure 2 is an exploded perspective view of the instrument shown in Fig. 1;
Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line A-A of Fig. 1;
Figure 4 is a longitudinal view of the writing instrument of Fig. 1 in a condition for use;
Figure 5 is a longitudinal sectional view of the writing instrument in another condition for use; and
Figure 6 is a longitudinal sectional view of the instrument in another condition for use.
In the embodiment of the present invention shown in the drawings, a member 4 made of a hard plastics material has a thick sleeve-like portion 1 and a thin sleeve-like portion 2 integrally connected to the portion 1 through a first stepped portion 3. The inner surface of the thin sleeve-like portion 2 of member 4 is provided with four crosswise arranged longitudinal grooves 5 each of which extends from an upper edge of the thin sleeve-like portion 2 in the vicinity of a lower edge of the same.
Similarly, the first stepped portion 3 is provided with four lateral grooves 5' each of which extends from a corresponding longitudinal groove 5 towards the outer periphery of the portion 3. An annular groove 6 is provided on an inner periphery of portion 3.
The brush member of the writing or painting instrument is constructed from a plurality of thermoplastic filaments which are bundled into a tuft. An upper end of the thus formed tuft is melted by heat to form a brush member 9 which is provided with a flange portion 8 at its upper end to act as a mounting means therefor.
A small diameter ink guide conduit 7 having a reverse-conical shape is formed in a center portion of the brush point 9 so that the ink guide conduit 7 extends from an upper end or base of the brush point 9 to substantially a mid portion of the brush point 9.
The thus formed brush point 9 is inserted into the thin-sleeve like portion 2 of member 4 so that the flange portion 8 is engaged with the annular groove 6 of the member 4.
Thereafter, a disc-like plate 10 made of a hard plastics material and having an outer diameter corresponding to the inner diameter of the thick sleeve-like portion 1 of member 4, is placed on the first stepped portion 3 of member 4.
In a centra portion of the disc-like plate 10, there is provided an ink passage 11 communicating with the ink guide conduit 7 of the brush point 9.
The lower surface of the disk-like plate 10, is provided with an annular groove 12 having the ink passage 11 at its center and a cruciform groove 13 which corresponds to the lateral grooves 5 of the member 4 when the disc-like plate 10 is in place. The cruciform groove 13 is connected to the annular groove 12 at its outer ends and to the ink passage 11 at its center.
Integral with the upper surface of the disclike plate 10, is a short sleeve-like insertion portion 14 which has the ink passage 11 at its center.
An ink conduit 16, made of a hard plastics material, is provided with a closed upper end and an open lower end so that it may act as a valve stem or a piston rod. Two ink inlets are provided in opposite side walls of the upper end portion of the ink conduit 16. A projection 18 is provided at the top surface of the upper end portion of the ink conduit 16.
At the outer periphery of the lower end of the ink conduit 16, there is integrally provided a seat portion 20 which has a reverse dish-like shape and is provided with an outwardly extending flange 19.
The ink conduit 16 may be dropped into the thick sleeve-like portion 1 of the member 4 so that seat portion 20 engages with the disc-like plate 10. Thus, the lower portion of the ink conduit 16 engages with the sleeve-like insertion portion 14 of the disc-like plate 10 so that the inner hole 12 communicates with the ink passage 11 of the disc-like plate 10.
A shaft sleeve 24 which may be constructed of a thin metal tube, is provided with a male screw 23 in an outer peripheral surface of a lower portion thereof, both upper and lower ends of which sleeve 24 are open. The shaft sleeve 24 is connected to the member 4 through a threadable connection between the male screw 23 of the former and a corresponding female screw 24 provided on an inner surface of the thick sleeve-like portion 1 of the latter. The lower end of the shaft sleeve 24 thus urges an upper surface of the flange 19 of the ink conduit 16 against the disc-like plate 10 so that the brush point 9 and the ink conduit 16 are held in their desired positions. A clearance or gap is thereby provided between the outer peripheral surface of the brush point 9 and the inner peripheral surface of the thin sleeve-like portion 2 of the member 4.
A pipe-like mouth element 29, made of a plastics material, has a tapered thin diameter and short length portion at one end, and a second step portion 28 at the inner peripheral surface of its middle portion. A packing groove 30 is provided on the upper surface of the second step portion 28 of the mouth element 29, which groove 30 is open radially and upwardly. A doughnut-like packing element 31 is inserted into the groove 30, which element has a concave portion 33 which forms a cavity 32 adjacent to a wall surface of the packing groove 30 when the packing 31 is inserted into the packing groove 30.
A valve box/cylinder 39 made of a plastics material is provided with: an outwardly extending flange 35 on the outer periphery portion towards the lower edge thereof; a valve seat 36 on the inner peripheral surface of the middle portion thereof; three longitudinally elongated ink passages 37 in the peripheral wall of an upper half thereof, which passages 37 are spaced apart from each other; and a guide hole 38 in the top wall thereof. A valve body/piston 42 is inserted in this valve box/ cylinder 39, which is provided with a recess 40 in the center portion of its lower surface and a guide rod 41 at its upper surface. The valve body/piston 42 can slide against the inner peripheral surface of the upper half of the valve box/cylinder 39 while being guided by the guide hole 38 and the guide rod 41.The valve body/piston 42 can thus move up and down in the valve box/cylinder 39. A coil spring 43 is positioned on the guide rod 41 so that an upward force is imparted to the valve box/cylinder 39, the packing 31, the mouth element 29 and an ink reservoir 45.
The valve box/cylinder 39 is dropped into the mouth element 29 so that it is seated on the second step portion 28 of the mouth element 29.
The ink reservoir 45 which may be constructed of a thin metal tube is provided with a closed upper portion and a male screw 44 at the outer peripheral surface of its open lower end. It may contain a desired ink or paint such as, for example, gold or silver ink.
The reservoir 45 is connected to the mouth member 29 through a threadable connection between the male screw 44 and a female screw 46 provided on the inner surface of the mouth element 29 so that the lower end edge of the ink reservoir 45 urges against the upper surface of the outwardly extending flange 35 of the valve box/cylinder 39. The lower surface of the valve box/cylinder 39 is consequently urged into the firm contact with the upper surface of the packing 31.
The thus assembled ink reservoir 45 is inserted into the shaft sleeve 24 so that the ink conduit 16 is inserted into the lower opening of the mouth element 29; the outer peripheral surface of the mid portion of the conduit 16 thereby contacts the inner peripheral surface of the packing element 31 and the projection 18 is inserted into the hole 40 of the valve body/piston 42. Thereafter, an annular edge reinforcing member 47 is fixed into the upper opening of the shaft sleeve 24 so that the ink reservoir 45 cannot be withdrawn from the shaft sleeve 24.
A cap 49 made of plastics material to cover the brush point 9 is so dimensioned that it can be engaged with the thin sleeve-like portion 2 of the member 4 and that it can be detachably inserted into the upper portion of the shaft sleeve 24.
A plug 50 which is removed in use, is firmly but detachably inserted into the upper end of the shaft sleeve 24 so that the inner end of the plug 50 abuts against the upper end of the ink reservoir 45.
In use, the plug 50 is first removed and the cap 49 detached from the member 4 and then inserted into an indented portion 51 of the upper end of the shaft sleeve 24. In this way the lower end of the cap 49 is engaged with the upper end of the ink reservoir 45. When the cap 49 is thereafter pressed downward by the user, the ink reservoir 45, the valve box/ cylinder 39, the packing element 31 and the mouth element 29 are moved downward against the upward force imparted by the coil spring 43. At the beginning of such downward movement of the cap 49, the sucking action of the valve body/piston 42 draws air into the space under the lower surface of the valve body/piston 42 through the clearance 9', the grooves 5, 5', 12 and 13, the ink conduit 16 and the ink inlets 17. Further downward movement of the cap 49 increases the volume of the space under the lower surface of the valve body/piston 42 until the ink inlets 17 open into the ink reservoir 45 above the valve seat 36. A part of the ink contained in the ink reservoir 45 is displaced by the thus introduced air and this ink flows down into the space under the lower surface of the valve body/piston 42 through the ink passages 37. When the cap 49 is released, the ink reservoir 45, the valve box/cylinder 39, the packing element 31 and the mouth element 29 move upward under the effect of the coil spring 43. When the level of the lower ends of the ink passages 37 coincides with the bottom surface of the valve body/piston 42, the ink present in the space under the valve/body piston 42 is transferred into the ink conduit 16 through the ink inlets 17. Thus, alternately pressing and releasing the cap 49 causes the ink in the reservoir 45 to be gradually replaced with air and fed to the brush point 9 through the ink conduit 16 and the ink conduit 7 of the brush point 9 so that the brush point 9 becomes saturated with the ink.
The provision of the liquid conduit in the brush point allows the brush point to be sufficiently saturated with liquid in a short time, while also allowing the brush point to hold a greater amount of liquid compared to known instruments. In addition to the above advantages, since it is possible to supply the liquid material to the point of the brush point quickly and consistently, the instrument has a smooth feel in use and uniform results are obtained when using the instrument as fast or slow rates.
