Description

  The present invention relates to a writing instrument having a built-in timer device for easily performing time-limited study or writing work for a certain period of time.

  Traditionally, if you have a time-limited study such as a 10-minute calculation or a kanji writing drill, or if each person decides their time and performs writing under self-management, should they set a timer for a familiar clock each time? It was necessary to prepare a separate timer device or refer to the clock frequently.

Therefore, there are the following problems.
It took time to set a timer for the clock before studying for a limited time or setting the time and starting writing. Or I had to prepare a timer device. Also, watching the clock frequently was not efficient because it was not possible to concentrate on studying and working.
The present invention is intended to solve the above problems.

  A timer device is built into the grip or cap of the writing instrument. A light emitting diode, an electronic sound, or a vibrator is used for the alarm device. The timer function is fixed to a commonly used time such as 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 60 minutes, or several types of time are set and a desired time is selected by a time selector. Set the alarm duration. The timer automatically stops after the alarm ends. Turn it on again for repeated use. A writing instrument with a timer for time-limited study or writing work for a certain period of time characterized by the above.

  The present invention enables quick and simple timer setting. When a light emitting diode is used for the alarm device, the surroundings are not disturbed because of the quiet sound. When a vibrator is used for the alarm device, it can be detected with fingers. These timer devices can be incorporated into caps of pencils and office ballpoint pens.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described. (A) In the case of a fixed time type, a timer device comprising a switch (1), an electronic timer (2), an alarm (3), and a battery (4) is used as a writing instrument (5). In the grip (6), or in the cap (8) of the pencil (7) or office ballpoint pen.
(B) In the case of a time selection type, a timer device comprising a switch (1), a time selector (9), an electronic timer (2), an alarm (3), and a battery (4) is attached to the grip (6) of the writing instrument (5). Incorporated into a cap (8) of a pencil (7) or office ballpoint pen.
The present invention has the above configuration.
When using the present invention, the time selection selector (9) is set to the desired time only in the case of the time selection type. Switch on the writing instrument (5) (1). When the set time is reached, the alarm device (3) is activated. The timer automatically turns off after a certain period of alarm duration. Always portable. When this timer device is incorporated into a pencil (7) or a cap (8) of an office ballpoint pen, the type of the pencil (7) or office ballpoint pen can be changed because it is detachable from the writing instrument body.
