Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cutter capable of sharpening a pencil lead without tapering the tip to a thick tip, and excessive sharpening of a pencil lead capable of rounding by removing the corner of the sharpened lead tip. Provide a stopper to prevent. SOLUTION: In a cutter 4 for sharpening a pencil lead, a pencil inserted in a pencil guide 6 is sharpened and the side where the pencil comes out is rounded so that the lead is not sharpened and comes out thick. In the stopper 5 for preventing excessive sharpening of the pencil lead, the corner of the lead tip can be rounded off by providing a groove having a shape that acts as a blade in the portion where the tip of the pencil lead hits.

Description

  The present invention relates to a cutter for sharpening a pencil lead and a stopper for preventing excessive sharpening of a pencil lead used in an electric pencil sharpener and a manual pencil sharpener. This makes it possible to cut the pencil with the same thickness without sharpening the tip of the pencil without sharpening the tip, and further sharpening the tip with a rounded tip.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, electric pencil sharpeners and manual pencil sharpeners that use a planetary gear to rotate a cutter and sharpen a pencil core have been used. They sharpen the pencil lead and sharpen it with a sharp tip, or change the length of the pencil lead to be sharpened, and make it shorter and trapezoidal. Examples thereof include those disclosed in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2.

  However, with a pencil lead sharpened with a conventional electric pencil sharpener or manual pencil sharpener, the lead is easy to break at the beginning of writing, the written letters are too thin, As the text progresses, the characters gradually become thicker and the thickness becomes different from the beginning. With such sharply sharpened tips, it is difficult for children who are new to writing to practice, and it is difficult to adjust the force. If the core breaks immediately or the thickness of the characters changes, It is a defect in practice. In addition, when a professional who draws or draws draws a thick and uniform line, he / she has to bother writing it, reducing the pointed tip and rounding it, and then drawing the line. In addition, there is one that can change the length of the core after scraping, but in this case, the tip of the core is scraped into a trapezoid, and the tip has a corner. For this reason, the corners hit at the beginning of writing and the writing comfort is poor, and the thickness of the characters cannot be written uniformly. Furthermore, the tip that has been sharply sharpened and the tip that has been sharpened into a trapezoidal shape are also a large amount in which the lead itself has been cut unnecessarily. Therefore, the amount of the core that can be actually used for writing is small, and the number of characters that can be written is small, so that the number of times of cutting the core increases, which is uneconomical. As described above, it is an object to improve the sharpening of the pencil core, which is inconvenient.

  The invention of claim 1 for solving this problem is a cutter for sharpening a pencil core with a spiral blade used in an electric pencil sharpener and a manual pencil sharpener. The cylindrical main body has a rounded shape at the front of the pencil insertion direction, that is, the side where the core is sharpened, so that only the portion of the pencil tree is shaved and the core itself is almost the same thickness. The core can be exposed as it is. Since the core itself is hardly scraped, the tip of the core is not tapered and the tip is sharpened without sharpening.

  The invention of claim 2 is a stopper for preventing excessive cutting of the pencil lead sharpened by the cutter of the invention of claim 1. The tip of the pencil lead sharpened by the cutter according to the first aspect has the shape of the lead itself and is flat and has a corner. Therefore, by adding a groove with a shape that works as a blade that sharpens the corner of the sharpened tip of the tip of the stopper, the sharpened tip of the tip is rounded. It is easy to write from time to time, and it can be finished on the tip of a pencil where you can write letters with the same thickness.

  By using the present invention for an electric pencil sharpener and a manual pencil sharpener, the pencil lead is sharpened without sharpening the tip of the pencil and sharpening the tip of the lead. Can be raised. Therefore, the sharpened pencil lead is thick and strong, so it does not break easily, and the thickness of the lead does not change as you write. Also, since the tip of the core is rounded, it is comfortable to write from the beginning. Furthermore, it is economical because there is very little shaving of the lead itself.

It is a side view of the cutter which sharpens the core of the pencil which rounded one side of the blade. It is the figure which looked at the positional relationship of the cutter and the pencil to be sharpened from the side. It is a side view of the part where the lead end of a pencil hits the stopper which carried out the shape of a blade which sharpens the corner of the lead end of a pencil. It is the figure which looked at the part where the lead end of a pencil hits a stopper from right above. It is the figure which looked at the part which the lead end of a pencil contacts of the stopper from diagonally upward. It is sectional drawing of the part where the tip of a pencil hits a stopper, and the figure of the pencil in the state where the tip of the pencil sharpened up. It is a structural diagram of the part which sharpens the pencil of an electric pencil sharpener and a manual pencil sharpener. It is a structural diagram of the whole electric pencil sharpener. It is a structure figure of the whole manual pencil sharpener.

  FIG. 1 is a cutter that sharpens a pencil core with a spiral blade, in which one side of the cylindrical body is rounded.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the positional relationship between the cutter and the pencil when sharpened. As shown in the figure, the rounded portion is not sharpened any more, so the pencil tip maintains the same thickness.

  FIG. 3 is a side view of a portion of the stopper that prevents the pencil lead from being excessively sharpened and a portion of the pencil lead that hits the edge of the pencil lead in a round shape by forming a groove. The parts 1 and 3 serve as blades that round off the corners of the pencil core. The portion 2 is a flat portion that functions as a stopper to prevent the pencil lead from being further sharpened.

  FIG. 4 is a top view of the portion of the stopper where the pencil lead hits. As an example, the shape viewed from directly above is a square, but its function does not change regardless of the shape viewed from directly above.

  FIG. 5 is an oblique view of the portion of the stopper where the lead tip of the pencil hits, so as to make it easier to understand the structure that acts as a blade that cuts off the corner of the lead tip. It has a shape that works as a stopper to prevent the tip of the pencil from being sharpened any more, and a blade that cuts off the corner of the tip of the lead, but it is the easiest to process by making it the simplest. It has a shape.

  FIG. 6 is a side view of the pencil lead and the stopper in a sharpened state, showing the shape of the pencil lead to be easily understood by the stopper.

  FIG. 7 is a structural diagram when the cutter 4 according to claim 1 and the stopper 5 according to claim 2 are used in an electric pencil sharpener and a manual pencil sharpener. Most of the current electric pencil sharpeners and manual pencil sharpeners have a structure using a planetary gear 7 having a pencil guide 6 as shown in the figure and scraping the pencil while rotating.

  FIG. 8 is a structural diagram of the entire electric pencil sharpener when the cutter 4 according to claim 1 of the present invention and the stopper 5 according to claim 2 are used. It is shown in the figure seen from. A motor 8 for rotating the planetary gear 7 is provided.

  FIG. 9 is a structural diagram of the entire manual pencil sharpener when the cutter 4 according to claim 1 of the present invention and the stopper 5 according to claim 2 are used. This is shown in the figure. A handle 9 for rotating the planetary gear 7 is provided.

  When the present invention is used industrially, there is no need for drastic modification of the manufacturing equipment in the production of parts used for the electric pencil sharpener and the manual pencil sharpener that are currently manufactured. Only by using the cutter according to item 1 and the stopper according to claim 2, it can be industrially mass-produced and has industrial applicability.
