Description

本発明は、インキタンク内にインキを直に貯溜し、前記インキタンクとペン先との間にインキ吸蔵体を介在させた直液式筆記具に関する。尚、本発明において、「前」とはペン先側を指し、「後」とはインキタンク側を指す。 The present invention relates to a direct liquid writing instrument in which ink is directly stored in an ink tank and an ink occlusion body is interposed between the ink tank and a pen tip. In the present invention, “front” refers to the pen tip side, and “rear” refers to the ink tank side.

〔1〕従来、この種の直液式筆記具において、例えば、特許文献1には、「インク容体の上方開口部に連絡孔(連絡管)と貫通孔とを有し吸収性材を充填した収容体を挿嵌し吸収性材に連絡する筆穂を設け通気管を貫通孔に挿通し外気とインキ容体とを連絡したことを特徴とする筆記具。」が開示されている。 [1] Conventionally, in this type of direct liquid writing instrument, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses that “the upper opening of an ink container has a communication hole (communication tube) and a through hole and is filled with an absorbent material. A writing instrument characterized in that a brush is inserted into the body and communicated with the absorbent material, the ventilation tube is inserted into the through hole, and the outside air and the ink container are communicated.

前記特許文献1の直液式筆記具は、インク容体の上方開口部に連絡管及び通気管を備えているとしても、常時、通気管が外気と連通する構成である。そのため、ペン先下向き状態を維持すると、外気が通気管を通してインク容体内に供給し続けられると同時に、インク容体内のインキが連絡管を通して吸収性材に供給し続けられる。その結果、インキ容体内のインキがペン先側より外部に漏出するおそれがある。 The direct liquid writing instrument of Patent Document 1 has a configuration in which the vent pipe is always in communication with the outside air even if the connecting pipe and the vent pipe are provided in the upper opening of the ink container. For this reason, when the pen tip downward state is maintained, the outside air continues to be supplied to the ink container through the vent pipe, and at the same time, the ink in the ink container continues to be supplied to the absorbent material through the connecting pipe. As a result, the ink in the ink container may leak out from the pen tip side.

〔2〕また、従来、特許文献2には、「容器本体内の一側に密閉用蓋体を着脱可能としたインキ補給口を有するインキ収納室を設けると共に、本体先端開口部側には上記インキ収納室とは隔壁にて分離されたインキ吸液材収納室を開口部と連通する状態として設け、該収納室内には二分割された通気性を有する吸液材を収納し、且つ先端開口部側の吸液材にはペン先の基部を抱持させると共にその基部端面はインキ収納室側の吸液材を接触させ、上記隔壁には収納インキを吸液材へ給液させるための給液孔を穿設すると共に、適宜な給気管を固定させ且つこの給気管の一方の端面開口部を本体先端開口部側の吸液材に当接させ、他方の端面開口部をインキ補給口附近のインキ収納室内に位置させたことを特徴とするサインペン。」が開示されている。 [2] Conventionally, Patent Document 2 states that “an ink storage chamber having an ink supply port in which a sealing lid is detachable is provided on one side of a container body, and the above-mentioned main body opening portion side The ink storage chamber is provided with a state in which an ink absorbing material storage chamber separated by a partition wall is communicated with the opening, and the storage chamber stores a liquid absorbing material having air permeability divided into two, and has a front end opening. The base side of the pen tip is held by the liquid-absorbing material on the part side, and the liquid-absorbing material on the side of the ink storage chamber is brought into contact with the end surface of the base. A liquid hole is drilled, an appropriate air supply pipe is fixed, one end face opening of this air supply pipe is brought into contact with the liquid absorbing material on the front end opening side of the main body, and the other end face opening is close to the ink supply port. Sign pen characterized by being positioned in the ink storage chamber of There.

前記特許文献2の直液式筆記具は、二つの吸液材を備え、給気管の前端面を本体先端開口部側の吸液材の後端面に当接させ、給液孔がインキ収納室側の吸液材の後端面に連通する構成、即ち、給気管の前端開口部と給液孔の前端開口部とが前後に離れて位置する構成である。そのため、給液孔から供給されて吸液材に含浸されたインキによって給気管の開口端を塞ぐこと(即ち給気管の開口端を液シール状態にすること)が困難となり、インキタンクからのインキ流出とインキタンクへの空気流入(即ちインキと空気の交替)を確実に停止させることができない。その結果、過剰のインキが吸液材に供給され、インキがペン先側より外部に漏出するおそれがある。 The direct liquid writing instrument of Patent Document 2 includes two liquid-absorbing materials, the front end surface of the air supply pipe is brought into contact with the rear end surface of the liquid-absorbing material on the front end of the main body, and the liquid supply hole is on the ink storage chamber side. In this configuration, the front end opening of the air supply pipe and the front end opening of the liquid supply hole are spaced apart from each other. For this reason, it becomes difficult to close the open end of the supply pipe with ink supplied from the liquid supply hole and impregnated in the liquid absorbing material (that is, to make the open end of the supply pipe liquid-sealed). The outflow and the air inflow into the ink tank (that is, the change of ink and air) cannot be stopped reliably. As a result, excessive ink may be supplied to the liquid absorbing material, and the ink may leak out from the pen tip side.

さらに、前記特許文献2の直液式筆記具は、ペン先が、本体先端開口部側の吸液材を貫通して、インキ収納室側の吸液材に接触する構成のため、ペン先の長手寸法を短く設定することが困難である。そのため、ペン先のコストが上昇し、ユーザーに安価に提供できず、しかも、ペン先後端からペン先先端までのインキ流出路が長くなり、ペン先からのインキ流出性が低下し、筆跡カスレや筆跡途切れが生じやすい。 Furthermore, the direct liquid type writing instrument of Patent Document 2 has a configuration in which the pen tip penetrates the liquid absorbing material on the side of the main body opening and contacts the liquid absorbing material on the ink storage chamber side. It is difficult to set the dimensions short. As a result, the cost of the pen tip increases and cannot be provided to the user at a low cost, and the ink outflow path from the pen tip rear end to the tip of the pen tip becomes longer, the ink outflow from the pen tip decreases, Handwriting breaks easily occur.

〔3〕また、従来、特許文献3には、「前軸内にインキ調整管、インキ導管を同心に配置し、インキ導管に中継芯を挿入し、その後端をインキ室(インキタンク)に挿入し、先端を毛筆体後端に所定の間隙を存して位置させ、インキ調整管とインキ導管間の環状路内及び毛筆体後端上には多孔質材からなるインキ吸収体を装着し、その先端の密度を他の部分より大となし、毛筆体後端にはインキ通路を形成し、前軸内面とインキ調整管外面間には外気に連通した空気通路を形成し、該空気通路後端とインキ調整管後端とを連通してなる毛筆状筆記具。」が開示されている。 [3] Conventionally, Patent Document 3 states that “an ink adjusting tube and an ink conduit are concentrically arranged in the front shaft, a relay core is inserted into the ink conduit, and a rear end thereof is inserted into the ink chamber (ink tank). The tip is located at the back end of the brush body with a predetermined gap, and an ink absorber made of a porous material is mounted in the annular path between the ink adjusting tube and the ink conduit and on the back end of the brush body, The tip has a higher density than the other parts, an ink passage is formed at the rear end of the brush, and an air passage communicating with the outside air is formed between the inner surface of the front shaft and the outer surface of the ink adjusting tube. "A brush-like writing instrument in which the end communicates with the rear end of the ink adjusting tube."

前記特許文献3の直液式筆記具は、一本のインキ導管のみによって、インキタンクとインキ吸収体とを接続する構成であるため、初期インキ出し時(即ちインキタンクから吸液材に最初にインキを供給する時)に迅速に空気とインキが交替せず、筆記可能になるまでにかなりの時間を要する。また、前記特許文献3の直液式筆記具は、部品点数が多く、構造が複雑であり、ユーザーに安価に提供することが困難である。 Since the direct liquid type writing instrument of Patent Document 3 is configured to connect the ink tank and the ink absorber by only one ink conduit, at the time of initial ink discharge (that is, the ink is first transferred from the ink tank to the liquid absorbing material). It takes a considerable amount of time before the writing becomes possible because the air and ink do not change rapidly. The direct liquid writing instrument of Patent Document 3 has a large number of parts, a complicated structure, and is difficult to provide to users at low cost.

本発明は前記従来の問題点を解決するものであって、インキタンク内のインキがペン先側より漏出するおそれがなく、また、ペン先の長手寸法を短くし、ペン先のコストを抑えるとともにペン先からのインキ流出性を円滑にでき、しかも、初期インキ出し時に迅速に空気とインキが交替し、短時間で筆記可能となり、さらに、簡易な構造にでき、その上、インキタンク内の圧力が急激に変化した場合でも、ペン先側からのインキ漏出やインキ吹き出しを防止できる直液式筆記具を提供しようとするものである。 The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and there is no possibility that the ink in the ink tank leaks from the pen tip side, and the length of the pen tip is shortened to reduce the cost of the pen tip. The ink can be smoothly discharged from the nib, and the air and ink can be changed quickly at the time of initial ink discharge, writing can be done in a short time, and the structure can be simplified, and the pressure in the ink tank An object of the present invention is to provide a direct liquid-type writing instrument that can prevent ink leakage and ink blowing from the pen tip side even when the temperature changes rapidly.

(構成1)
本発明は、ペン先2と、前記ペン先2の後端に接続されるインキ吸蔵体3と、前記インキ吸蔵体3の後方に配置され、インキを直に貯溜するインキタンク7と、前記インキタンク7と前記インキ吸蔵体3との間を接続する連通管6とからなる直液式筆記具であって、前記連通管6を複数備え、インキ吸蔵体3とインキタンク7との間に隔壁52を設け、前記隔壁52前面より前方に前記連通管6の各々を突出させ、前記連通管6の各々の前端をインキ吸蔵体3内部に位置させ、少なくとも1本の連通管6bを前記隔壁52後面より後方に突出させ、その連通管6bの後端をインキタンク7内部に位置させたこと(構成1)を要件とする。
(Configuration 1)
The present invention includes a nib 2, an ink storage 3 connected to the rear end of the nib 2, an ink tank 7 disposed behind the ink storage 3 and directly storing ink, and the ink A direct liquid type writing instrument comprising a tank 7 and a communication pipe 6 connecting between the ink storage body 3, comprising a plurality of the communication pipes 6, and a partition wall 52 between the ink storage body 3 and the ink tank 7. Each of the communication pipes 6 is projected forward from the front surface of the partition wall 52, the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is positioned inside the ink storage body 3, and at least one communication pipe 6b is connected to the rear surface of the partition wall 52. The requirement is that the rear end of the communication pipe 6b is positioned inside the ink tank 7 (Configuration 1).

前記直液式筆記具1(構成1)において、前記隔壁52後面より後方に突出する連通管6bの後端は、ペン先2の向きやインキタンク7内のインキ残量によって、インキ液面より上方に位置する場合と、インキ液面より下方(即ちインキ中)に位置する場合がある。前記隔壁52後面より後方に突出する連通管6bの後端が、インキ液面より上方に位置する状態の場合、前記後方に突出した連通管6bにより、インキタンク7と外気との間の空気流通がなされ、他の連通管6aによりインキタンク7とインキ吸蔵体3との間のインキ流通がなされる。一方、前記隔壁52後面より後方に突出する連通管6bの後端が、インキ液面より下方に位置する状態の場合、少なくとも1本の連通管6により、インキタンク7と外気との間の空気流通がなされ、他の連通管6によりインキタンク7とインキ吸蔵体3との間のインキ流通がなされる。 In the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (Configuration 1), the rear end of the communication pipe 6b protruding rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52 is above the ink liquid surface depending on the direction of the pen tip 2 and the remaining amount of ink in the ink tank 7. Or located below the ink level (ie, in the ink). When the rear end of the communication pipe 6b protruding rearward from the rear face of the partition wall 52 is positioned above the ink liquid level, the air flow between the ink tank 7 and the outside air is caused by the communication pipe 6b protruding rearward. Ink is circulated between the ink tank 7 and the ink occlusion body 3 by the other communication pipe 6a. On the other hand, when the rear end of the communication tube 6b protruding rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52 is located below the ink liquid surface, the air between the ink tank 7 and the outside air is provided by at least one communication tube 6. The ink is distributed between the ink tank 7 and the ink occlusion body 3 through another communication pipe 6.

前記直液式筆記具1(構成1)において、インキタンク7内のインキをインキ吸蔵体3に供給する際、ペン先2を下向き状態にすると、重力によりインキタンク7内のインキが、少なくとも1本の連通管6を通って、インキ吸蔵体3に供給され、インキ吸蔵体3内部において含浸される。それと同時に、外気が他の連通管6を通ってインキタンク7内に取り込まれる。前記インキ吸蔵体3の内部に含浸されたインキが一定量になると、前記外気を取り込んでいた他の連通管6の前端開口部が、前記含浸インキによる液シール状態となり一時的に閉鎖され、インキタンク7内への外気の供給は停止される。それと同時に、前記インキ供給を行っていた連通管6によるインキタンク7からインキ吸蔵体3へのインキ供給も停止され、その結果、連通管6の各々の前端開口部が液シール状態となり一時的に閉鎖され、インキタンク7からのインキ流出とインキタンク7への空気流入(即ちインキと空気の交替)が停止状態となる。 In the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (configuration 1), when the ink in the ink tank 7 is supplied to the ink occlusion body 3, when the pen tip 2 is turned downward, at least one ink in the ink tank 7 is caused by gravity. The ink storage body 3 is supplied through the communication pipe 6 and impregnated inside the ink storage body 3. At the same time, the outside air is taken into the ink tank 7 through the other communication pipe 6. When the ink impregnated inside the ink occlusion body 3 reaches a certain amount, the front end opening of the other communication pipe 6 that has taken in the outside air is in a liquid-sealed state with the impregnating ink and temporarily closed. The supply of outside air into the tank 7 is stopped. At the same time, the ink supply from the ink tank 7 to the ink occluding body 3 by the communication pipe 6 that has been supplying the ink is also stopped. As a result, the front end opening of each of the communication pipes 6 is in a liquid-sealed state temporarily. The ink tank 7 is closed, and the ink outflow from the ink tank 7 and the air inflow into the ink tank 7 (that is, replacement of ink and air) are stopped.

前記直液式筆記具1(構成1)は、前記連通管6の各々の前端がインキ吸蔵体3内部に位置する構成であるため、連通管6の各々の前端開口部の全てを、インキ吸蔵体3の内部に含浸されたインキの液シールによって容易に閉鎖することができる。その結果、インキタンク7からインキ吸蔵体3に過剰のインキを供給することがなく、ペン先2側より外部にインキが漏出するおそれがない。 The direct liquid writing instrument 1 (Configuration 1) has a configuration in which the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is positioned inside the ink storage body 3, so that all of the front end openings of the communication pipes 6 are disposed in the ink storage body. 3 can be easily closed by a liquid seal of ink impregnated in the interior of 3. As a result, excess ink is not supplied from the ink tank 7 to the ink occlusion body 3, and there is no possibility that the ink leaks outside from the pen tip 2 side.

また、前記直液式筆記具1(構成1)は、連通管6を複数本(即ち2本以上)、有することにより、少なくとも一つの連通管6がインキ供給を行う場合、他の連通管6が空気供給を行うことになる。そのため、初期インキ出し時(即ち、インキが含浸されていないインキ吸蔵体3に最初にインキを供給する場合)に迅速にインキと空気との交替が行われ、短時間で筆記可能となる。 Further, the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (Configuration 1) has a plurality of communication pipes 6 (that is, two or more), and when at least one of the communication pipes 6 supplies ink, the other communication pipes 6 Air supply will be performed. Therefore, at the time of initial ink ejection (that is, when ink is first supplied to the ink occlusion body 3 not impregnated with ink), the ink and air are quickly replaced, and writing can be performed in a short time.

また、前記直液式筆記具1(構成1)は、温度上昇等によりインキタンク7内の圧力が上昇した際、インキタンク7内より押し出された余剰のインキは、前記連通管6を通ってインキ吸蔵体3の内部に供給され、インキ吸蔵体3の内部に一時的に含浸される。一方、温度低下等によりインキタンク7内の圧力が減少した際、インキ吸蔵体3の内部に含浸されたインキが、連通管6を通ってインキタンク7内に戻される。それにより、インキタンク7内が圧力変化した際、インタンク7内の余剰インキを適正にインキ吸蔵体3に一時的に吸収させ、その後、その余剰インキをインキタンク7へ適正に戻すことができる。その結果、インキが外部に漏出することを十分に防止できる。 Further, when the pressure in the ink tank 7 rises due to a temperature rise or the like, the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (Configuration 1) causes the excess ink pushed out from the ink tank 7 to pass through the communication pipe 6. The ink is supplied into the occlusion body 3 and is temporarily impregnated in the ink occlusion body 3. On the other hand, when the pressure in the ink tank 7 decreases due to a temperature drop or the like, the ink impregnated in the ink storage body 3 is returned to the ink tank 7 through the communication pipe 6. As a result, when the pressure in the ink tank 7 changes, the excess ink in the in-tank 7 can be appropriately absorbed by the ink storage 3 and then the excess ink can be properly returned to the ink tank 7. . As a result, the ink can be sufficiently prevented from leaking to the outside.

さらに、前記直液式筆記具1(構成1)は、少なくとも1本の連通管6bを前記隔壁52後面より後方に突出させ且つその連通管6bの後端をインキタンク7内部に位置させたことにより、ペン先下向き状態で急激な圧力変化が生じた場合、インキタンク7内の加圧空気が、前記隔壁52の後面より後方に突出する連通管6bの後端開口部から、該連通管6bの内部を通り、次に、インキ吸蔵体3の内部を通って、迅速に外部に放出され,ペン先2側からインキが外部に漏出したり吹き出したりするおそれがない。即ち、前記直液式筆記具1(構成1)は、ペン先下向き状態でインキタンク7内の圧力が急激に変化した場合でも、ペン先2側からのインキ漏出やインキ吹き出しを防止できる。 Further, the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (Configuration 1) is configured such that at least one communication pipe 6b protrudes rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52 and the rear end of the communication pipe 6b is positioned inside the ink tank 7. When a sudden pressure change occurs in the state where the pen tip is downward, the pressurized air in the ink tank 7 passes through the rear end opening of the communication pipe 6b protruding rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52. The ink passes through the inside and then passes through the inside of the ink occlusion body 3 and is quickly discharged to the outside, so that there is no possibility that the ink leaks or blows out from the pen tip 2 side. That is, the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (Configuration 1) can prevent ink leakage or ink blowing from the pen tip 2 side even when the pressure in the ink tank 7 changes suddenly in a state where the pen tip is downward.

特に、ペン先下向き時、前記後方に突出する連通管6bの後端が、インキ液面より上方に位置していない場合であっても、インキ液面から前記後方に突出する連通管6bの後端までの距離が、インキ液面から隔壁52後面までの距離(即ち隔壁52後面より後方に突出しない連通管6aの後端とインキ液面との距離)に比べて短いため、ペン先下向き状態でインキタンク内の圧力が急激に変化した場合、インキタンク7内の多量のインキがインキ吸蔵体3に押し出されることなく、各々の連通管6を通ってインキタンク7内から僅かの余剰インキがインキ吸蔵体3に押し出されてインキ吸蔵体3に保持された後、即座に、前記後方に突出する連通管6bの後端開口部とインキ液面の上方の空間とが連通され、インキ液面の上方の加圧空気が、前記後方に突出する連通管6bを通って外部に放出される。それにより、ペン先下向き状態で急激な圧力変化が生じた場合でも、ペン先2側からのインキ漏出やインキ吹き出しを十分に防止できる。 In particular, when the pen tip is downward, the rear end of the communication pipe 6b protruding rearward is not located above the ink liquid level, but the rear of the communication pipe 6b protruding rearward from the ink liquid level. Since the distance to the end is shorter than the distance from the ink liquid surface to the rear surface of the partition wall 52 (that is, the distance between the rear end of the communication pipe 6a that does not protrude rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52 and the ink liquid surface), When the pressure in the ink tank changes abruptly, a large amount of ink in the ink tank 7 is not pushed out to the ink occlusion body 3, but a little excess ink is passed from the ink tank 7 through each communication pipe 6. Immediately after being pushed out by the ink occlusion body 3 and held by the ink occlusion body 3, the rear end opening of the communication pipe 6b protruding rearward and the space above the ink liquid surface communicate with each other. Pressurized air above It is discharged to the outside through the communicating pipe 6b protruding serial backward. Thereby, even when a sudden pressure change occurs in the pen tip downward state, it is possible to sufficiently prevent ink leakage and ink blowing from the pen tip 2 side.

尚、前記インキタンク7内の圧力が急激に変化する場合とは、例えば、低温環境下でキャップをペン先側に装着した後、高温環境下でインキタンク7内の空気が加圧された状態においてペン先側からキャップを取り外す場合、または、地上の1気圧状態でキャップをペン先側に装着した後、航空機内等の減圧状態においてペン先側からキャップを取り外す場合が挙げられる。 The case where the pressure in the ink tank 7 suddenly changes is, for example, a state in which the air in the ink tank 7 is pressurized in a high temperature environment after the cap is attached to the pen tip side in a low temperature environment. In the case of removing the cap from the pen tip side, or after removing the cap from the pen tip side in a decompressed state such as in an airplane after the cap is attached to the pen tip side at 1 atmosphere pressure on the ground.

(構成2)
本発明は、前記構成1の直液式筆記具1において、前記連通管6の各々の前端の軸方向の位置が互いに等しく設定されてなること(構成2)を要件とする。
(Configuration 2)
The present invention requires that the axial positions of the front ends of the communication pipes 6 are set equal to each other in the direct liquid writing instrument 1 having the configuration 1 (configuration 2).

前記直液式筆記具1(構成2)は、前記連通管6の各々の前端の軸方向の位置が互いに等しく設定される構成(即ち連通管6の各々の前端が互いに前後に離れていない構成)であるため、インキ吸蔵体3の内部における連通管6の各々の前端の相互間の距離が一層短くなり、連通管6の各々の前端開口部の液シール性が向上し、外部へのインキ漏出を、より一層防止できる。 In the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (Configuration 2), the axial positions of the front ends of the communication tubes 6 are set to be equal to each other (that is, the front ends of the communication tubes 6 are not separated from each other in the front-rear direction). Therefore, the distance between the front ends of the communication pipes 6 inside the ink occlusion body 3 is further shortened, the liquid sealability of the front end openings of the communication pipes 6 is improved, and ink leaks to the outside. Can be further prevented.

(構成3)
本発明は、前記構成1または2の直液式筆記具1において、前記連通管6の各々の前端がインキ吸蔵体3内部のペン先2後端近傍に位置されてなること(構成3)を要件とする。が好ましい。
(Configuration 3)
The present invention requires that the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is positioned in the vicinity of the rear end of the pen tip 2 inside the ink occlusion body 3 in the direct liquid writing instrument 1 having the configuration 1 or 2 (configuration 3). And Is preferred.

前記直液式筆記具1(構成3)は、連通管6の各々の前端がペン先2後端近傍に位置する構成によって、いずれの連通管6の前端開口部からインキが供給されても、ペン先2にインキを迅速に供給できる。それにより、初期インキ出し時、確実に、短時間で筆記可能となる。 The direct liquid writing instrument 1 (configuration 3) has a configuration in which each front end of the communication pipe 6 is positioned in the vicinity of the rear end of the pen tip 2, so that no matter which ink is supplied from the front end opening of any communication pipe 6, The ink can be quickly supplied to the tip 2. As a result, writing can be performed reliably in a short time when the initial ink is dispensed.

(構成4)
本発明は、前記構成1乃至3のいずれかの直液式筆記具1において、前記連通管6の各々の前端が前記インキ吸蔵体3の内部前方に位置し、前記ペン先2の後端が前記インキ吸蔵体3の内部前方に位置してなること(構成4)を要件とする。
(Configuration 4)
According to the present invention, in the direct liquid writing instrument 1 according to any one of the configurations 1 to 3, the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is located in front of the ink storage body 3, and the rear end of the pen tip 2 is It is a requirement that the ink storage member 3 is positioned in front of the inside (configuration 4).

前記直液式筆記具1(構成4)は、ペン先2の後端がインキ吸蔵体3の内部前方に位置しているため、ペン先2全体の長手寸法を短く設定できる。その結果、インキタンク7からの潤沢なインキが、連通管6を通ってインキ吸蔵体3の内部前方を介してペン先2後端に供給された後、前記ペン先2先端に迅速に供給されるため、筆跡途切れや筆跡カスレのない、ペン先2からの円滑なインキ流出性が得られる。また、ペン先2全体の長手寸法を短く設定できることから、ペン先2のコストを安価に抑えることもできる。 In the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (configuration 4), since the rear end of the pen tip 2 is located in front of the ink occlusion body 3, the longitudinal dimension of the entire pen tip 2 can be set short. As a result, abundant ink from the ink tank 7 is supplied to the rear end of the pen tip 2 through the communication pipe 6 and through the front inside of the ink occlusion body 3 and then rapidly supplied to the front end of the pen tip 2. Therefore, smooth ink outflow from the nib 2 without handwriting breakage or handwriting blur is obtained. Moreover, since the longitudinal dimension of the entire nib 2 can be set short, the cost of the nib 2 can be reduced at a low cost.

また、前記直液式筆記具1(構成4)は、温度上昇等によりインキタンク7内の圧力が上昇した際、インキタンク7内より押し出された余剰のインキは、前記連通管6を通ってインキ吸蔵体3の内部前方に供給され、さらに、インキ吸蔵体3の内部後方に供給され一時的に含浸される。一方、温度低下等によりインキタンク7内の圧力が減少した際、インキ吸蔵体3の内部後方に含浸されたインキが、インキ吸蔵体3の内部前方から連通管6を通ってインキタンク7内に戻される。 Further, when the pressure in the ink tank 7 rises due to a temperature rise or the like, the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (configuration 4) causes the excess ink pushed out from the ink tank 7 to pass through the communication pipe 6 to the ink. The ink is supplied to the front side of the occlusion body 3 and further supplied to the rear side of the ink occlusion body 3 to be temporarily impregnated. On the other hand, when the pressure in the ink tank 7 decreases due to a temperature drop or the like, the ink impregnated in the rear side of the ink storage body 3 passes through the communication pipe 6 from the front side of the ink storage body 3 into the ink tank 7. Returned.

即ち、前記直液式筆記具1(構成4)は、連通管6の各々の前端がインキ吸蔵体3の内部前方に位置する構成により、インキタンク7内が圧力変化した際、インタンク7内の余剰インキを適正にインキ吸蔵体3に一時的に吸収させ、その後、その余剰インキをインキタンク7へ適正に戻すことができる。その結果、インキが外部に漏出することを十分に防止できる。 That is, the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (configuration 4) has a configuration in which the front ends of the communication pipes 6 are located in front of the ink storage body 3, and the pressure in the ink tank 7 changes when the pressure in the ink tank 7 changes. The excess ink can be appropriately absorbed by the ink occlusion body 3 and then the excess ink can be properly returned to the ink tank 7. As a result, the ink can be sufficiently prevented from leaking to the outside.

(構成5)
本発明は、前記構成1乃至4のいずれかの直液式筆記具1において、前記ペン先2の後端と前記連通管6の各々の前端との間は、前記インキ吸蔵体3を介してインキ流通可能に接続されること(構成5)を要件とする。
(Configuration 5)
In the direct liquid writing instrument 1 according to any one of the configurations 1 to 4, the present invention provides ink between the rear end of the nib 2 and the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 via the ink occlusion body 3. It is required to be connected so that it can be distributed (Configuration 5).

前記直液式筆記具1(構成5)は、前記ペン先2の後端と、前記連通管6の各々の前端とが、直接接続されていないため、少なくともペン先2の後端と連通管6の各々の前端との間のインキ吸蔵体3内部には一定量のインキが含浸されている。それにより、ペン先上向き状態や筆記具本体の水平状態などのインキタンク7からのインキ供給が無い場合でも、前記ペン先2の後端と連通管6の各々の前端との間のインキ吸蔵体3内部に含浸されたインキによって十分に筆記可能となる。 In the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (configuration 5), since the rear end of the pen tip 2 and the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 are not directly connected, at least the rear end of the pen tip 2 and the communication pipe 6 are used. A predetermined amount of ink is impregnated in the ink storage body 3 between each of the front ends. Thereby, even when there is no ink supply from the ink tank 7 such as the pen tip upward state or the writing instrument main body horizontal state, the ink occlusion body 3 between the rear end of the pen tip 2 and the front end of each of the communication pipes 6. The ink impregnated inside can be sufficiently written.

(構成6)
本発明は、前記構成1乃至5のいずれかの直液式筆記具1において、前記連通管6の各々の前端をインキ吸蔵体3の後端から前方に挿入し、インキ吸蔵体3の内部を前方に押圧圧縮することによって、前記連通管6の各々の前端近傍のインキ吸蔵体3の密度を、前記連通管6の各々の前端近傍以外の部分のインキ吸蔵体3の密度よりも高く設定したこと(構成6)を要件とする。
(Configuration 6)
According to the present invention, in the direct liquid writing instrument 1 having any one of the configurations 1 to 5, the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is inserted forward from the rear end of the ink storage body 3, and the interior of the ink storage body 3 is moved forward. The density of the ink storage body 3 in the vicinity of the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is set higher than the density of the ink storage body 3 in a portion other than the vicinity of the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 by being pressed and compressed. (Configuration 6) is a requirement.

前記直液式筆記具1(構成6)は、インキ吸蔵体3が、連通管6の各々の前端近傍の密度を高く設定した部分(毛細管力の大きい高密度部31)と、連通管6の各々の前端近傍以外の密度を低く設定した部分(毛細管力の小さい低密度部32)とを備える。そのため、インキ吸蔵体3内部におけるインキを、低密度部32よりも高密度部31に、優先して含浸させることができる。それにより、連通管6の各々の前端開口部を含浸インキによって、確実に液シールできる。その結果、温度低下等によりインキタンク7内の圧力が減少した際、インキ吸蔵体3内に含浸されたインキが、インキ吸蔵体3内に残留することがなく、インキ吸蔵体3の高密度部31から連通管6を通って、適正にインキタンク7内に戻される。 In the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (configuration 6), the ink occlusion body 3 has a portion where the density in the vicinity of the front end of each of the communication tubes 6 is set high (a high-density portion 31 having a large capillary force), and each of the communication tubes 6. A portion where the density other than the vicinity of the front end is set low (low density portion 32 having a small capillary force). Therefore, the ink in the ink occlusion body 3 can be preferentially impregnated in the high density portion 31 rather than the low density portion 32. Thereby, each front end opening of the communication pipe 6 can be reliably liquid-sealed with the impregnation ink. As a result, when the pressure in the ink tank 7 decreases due to a temperature drop or the like, the ink impregnated in the ink storage body 3 does not remain in the ink storage body 3, and the high density portion of the ink storage body 3 From 31, it passes through the communication pipe 6 and is properly returned into the ink tank 7.

また、前記直液式筆記具1(構成6)は、インキ吸蔵体3の密度差(即ちインキ吸蔵体3の高密度部31と低密度部32)を、連通管6の各々の前端を前記インキ吸蔵体3の後端から前方に挿入し、インキ吸蔵体3の内部を前方に押圧圧縮することによって形成するため、連通管6をインキ吸蔵体3に組み込む前に、予めインキ吸蔵体3に密度差を設ける必要がなく、製造が極めて容易となる。 Further, the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (configuration 6) has a difference in density of the ink occluding body 3 (that is, the high density portion 31 and the low density portion 32 of the ink occluding body 3), and the front end of each communicating tube 6 is connected to the ink. Since the inside of the ink storage body 3 is inserted forward from the rear end of the storage body 3 and pressed and compressed inside, the density of the ink storage body 3 is set in advance before the communication tube 6 is incorporated into the ink storage body 3. There is no need to provide a difference, and manufacturing becomes extremely easy.

(構成7)
本発明は、前記構成1乃至6の直液式筆記具1において、開栓前のインキタンク7の前端開口部を栓体71によって閉鎖し、前記隔壁52後面より後方に接続管54を突出させ、前記接続管54を前記インキタンク7の前端開口部内に挿着し、前記接続管54が前記栓体71を押圧することによって前記インキタンク7を開栓してなり、前記隔壁52後面より後方に突出された連通管6bが前記接続管54の内側に位置し、前記隔壁52後面より後方に突出された連通管6bの後端が前記接続管54の後端より前方に位置するかまたは前記隔壁52後面より後方に突出された連通管6bの後端と前記接続管54の後端との軸方向の位置が略一致してなること(構成7)を要件とする。
(Configuration 7)
In the direct liquid writing instrument 1 having the configurations 1 to 6, the present invention closes the front end opening of the ink tank 7 before opening with the stopper 71, and causes the connecting pipe 54 to protrude rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52. The connecting pipe 54 is inserted into the front end opening of the ink tank 7, and the connecting pipe 54 presses the plug 71 to open the ink tank 7. The protruding communication pipe 6b is positioned inside the connection pipe 54, and the rear end of the communication pipe 6b protruding rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52 is positioned forward of the rear end of the connection pipe 54 or the partition wall. The axial position of the rear end of the communication pipe 6b protruding rearward from the rear surface of the 52 and the rear end of the connecting pipe 54 is substantially the same (Configuration 7).

前記直液式筆記具1(構成7)は、接続管54をインキタンク7の前端開口部に挿着した時、接続管54が栓体71を適正に押圧してインキタンク7を確実に開栓でき、しかも、インキタンク7の開栓時にインキタンク内のインキが外部に漏出するおそれがない。もし、隔壁52後面より後方に突出された連通管6bの後端が接続管54の後端より後方に大きく突出していると、接続管54をインキタンク7の前端開口部に挿着した時、前記連通管6bが栓体71に当接し、インキタンク7を確実に開栓できないおそれや、接続管54がインキタンク7の前端開口部に完全に挿着される前にインキタンク7の前端開口部より栓体71が外れ、インキが外部に漏出するおそれがある。 When the connecting pipe 54 is inserted into the front end opening of the ink tank 7, the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (configuration 7) presses the plug 71 properly and the ink tank 7 is reliably opened. In addition, there is no possibility that the ink in the ink tank leaks outside when the ink tank 7 is opened. If the rear end of the communication pipe 6b protruding rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52 protrudes greatly rearward from the rear end of the connection pipe 54, when the connection pipe 54 is inserted into the front end opening of the ink tank 7, There is a risk that the communication pipe 6b abuts against the plug 71 and the ink tank 7 cannot be reliably opened, or the front end opening of the ink tank 7 is inserted before the connection pipe 54 is completely inserted into the front end opening of the ink tank 7. There is a possibility that the plug 71 is detached from the portion and the ink leaks to the outside.

(構成8)
本発明は、前記構成7の直液式筆記具1において、インキタンク7の開栓時に前記栓体71の片側を押圧する突片54aを前記接続管54後端の片側に設け、前記隔壁52後面より後方に突出された連通管6bの外面と前記突片54aの内面とを近接させてなること(構成8)を要件とする。
(Configuration 8)
According to the present invention, in the direct liquid writing instrument 1 having the configuration 7, a protruding piece 54a that presses one side of the plug body 71 when the ink tank 7 is opened is provided on one side of the rear end of the connecting pipe 54, and the rear surface of the partition wall 52 It is a requirement that the outer surface of the communication pipe 6b that protrudes further rearward and the inner surface of the protruding piece 54a be close to each other (Configuration 8).

前記直液式筆記具1(構成8)は、インキタンク7の開栓時、突片54aが栓体71の片側を押圧することによって、栓体71を適正に外すことができる。もし、前記隔壁52後面より後方に突出された連通管6bの外面と前記突片54aの内面とが近接しない構成の場合、インキタンク7の開栓時、前記隔壁52後面より後方に突出された連通管6bが、栓体71に当接し、栓体71の円滑な開栓作動を妨げ、インキタンク7の適正な開栓がなしえないおそれがある。 When the ink tank 7 is opened, the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (Configuration 8) can properly remove the plug 71 by pressing one side of the plug 71 with the protruding piece 54a. If the outer surface of the communication pipe 6b protruding rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52 is not close to the inner surface of the protruding piece 54a, the ink tank 7 is protruded rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52 when the ink tank 7 is opened. There is a possibility that the communication pipe 6b abuts against the plug body 71, hinders the smooth opening operation of the plug body 71, and the ink tank 7 cannot be properly opened.

(構成9)
本発明は、前記構成1乃至8のいずれかの直液式筆記具1において、前記インキ吸蔵体3の容積V2を、前記インキタンク7と前記各々の連通管6とからなる空間の容積V1の40%以上(好ましくは50%以上)に設定したこと(構成9)を要件とする。
(Configuration 9)
According to the present invention, in the direct liquid writing instrument 1 having any one of the configurations 1 to 8, the volume V2 of the ink occlusion body 3 is set to 40 of the volume V1 of the space formed by the ink tank 7 and the communication pipes 6. % (Preferably 50% or more) (configuration 9) is a requirement.

前記直液式筆記具1(構成9)は、前記容積V1に対する前記容積V2の比率を40%以上(好ましくは50%以上)に設定したことにより、インキタンク7内の圧力が急激に変化した場合、インキタンク7内のインキ8が連通管6を通して勢いよく押し出されても、該インキ8がインキ吸蔵体3内に適正に含浸される。それにより、ペン先2側より外部にインキが漏出したり吹き出したりすることを十分に防止できる。 In the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (Configuration 9), when the ratio of the volume V2 to the volume V1 is set to 40% or more (preferably 50% or more), the pressure in the ink tank 7 rapidly changes. Even if the ink 8 in the ink tank 7 is pushed out through the communication pipe 6, the ink 8 is properly impregnated in the ink occlusion body 3. Thereby, it is possible to sufficiently prevent the ink from leaking out or blowing out from the pen tip 2 side.

前記容積V1に対する前記容積V2の比率が40%未満の場合、インキタンク7内の圧力が急激に変化した際、インキタンク7からの十分な量のインキをインキ吸蔵体3で保持できないおそれがある。前記直液式筆記具1(構成9)において、前記容積V2は、前記容積V1の70%以下に設定することが好ましい。前記容積V1に対する前記容積V2の比率が70%を超える場合、インキタンク7内に収容するインキ量が過剰に小さくなって、筆記可能距離が短くなるため、実用的ではない。前記容積V2の容積V1に対する比率は40%〜70%の範囲、好ましくは、50%〜70%の範囲に設定することが有効である。 When the ratio of the volume V2 to the volume V1 is less than 40%, there is a possibility that a sufficient amount of ink from the ink tank 7 cannot be held by the ink occlusion body 3 when the pressure in the ink tank 7 changes abruptly. . In the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (Configuration 9), the volume V2 is preferably set to 70% or less of the volume V1. When the ratio of the volume V2 to the volume V1 exceeds 70%, the amount of ink stored in the ink tank 7 becomes excessively small and the writable distance becomes short, which is not practical. It is effective to set the ratio of the volume V2 to the volume V1 in the range of 40% to 70%, preferably in the range of 50% to 70%.

尚、前記インキタンク7と前記各々の連通管6とからなる空間の容積V1とは、インキタンク7内の容積と各々の連通管6内の容積とを合わせた容積をいう。前記インキ吸蔵体3の容積V2とは、ペン先2及び各々の連通管6のインキ吸蔵体3内に挿入される部分を除いたインキ吸蔵体3の容積をいう。 Note that the volume V1 of the space formed by the ink tank 7 and each of the communication pipes 6 is the total volume of the volume in the ink tank 7 and the volume in each of the communication pipes 6. The volume V2 of the ink occlusion body 3 refers to the volume of the ink occlusion body 3 excluding the pen tip 2 and the portion of each communication pipe 6 inserted into the ink occlusion body 3.

(構成10)
本発明は、前記構成1乃至9のいずれかの直液式筆記具1において、前記連通管6の各々の前端近傍以外のインキ吸蔵体3の空隙率が70%〜95%であり、前記連通管6の各々の前端近傍以外のインキ吸蔵体3の空隙率と、前記連通管6の各々の前端近傍のインキ吸蔵体3の空隙率との差が7%以上(好ましくは10%以上)であること(構成10)を要件とする。
(Configuration 10)
According to the present invention, in the direct liquid writing instrument 1 having any one of the configurations 1 to 9, the porosity of the ink occlusion body 3 other than the vicinity of the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is 70% to 95%. 6 is 7% or more (preferably 10% or more) between the porosity of the ink occlusion body 3 other than the vicinity of the front end of each of the ink pipes 6 and the porosity of the ink occlusion body 3 near the front end of each of the communication pipes 6. (Configuration 10) is a requirement.

前記直液式筆記具1(構成10)において、前記連通管6の各々の前端近傍以外のインキ吸蔵体3の空隙率とは、連通管6の各々の前端近傍以外の密度を低く設定した部分(低密度部32)のインキ吸蔵体3の空隙率であり、前記連通管6の各々の前端近傍のインキ吸蔵体3の空隙率とは、連通管6の各々の前端近傍の密度を高く設定した部分(高密度部31)のインキ吸蔵体3の空隙率である。前記低密度部32の空隙率を70%〜95%の範囲に設定し、且つ、前記低密度部32の空隙率と高密度部31の空隙率との差を7%以上に設定したことにより、一層、連通管6の各々の前端開口部を含浸インキによって、確実に液シールできる。 In the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (configuration 10), the porosity of the ink occlusion body 3 other than the vicinity of the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is a portion where the density other than the vicinity of the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is set low ( It is the porosity of the ink occlusion body 3 in the low density portion 32), and the porosity of the ink occlusion body 3 in the vicinity of each front end of the communication pipe 6 is set to a high density in the vicinity of each front end of the communication pipe 6. This is the porosity of the ink occlusion body 3 in the portion (high density portion 31). By setting the porosity of the low density portion 32 in the range of 70% to 95% and setting the difference between the porosity of the low density portion 32 and the porosity of the high density portion 31 to 7% or more. In addition, the front end opening of each communication pipe 6 can be liquid-sealed with impregnation ink.

(構成11)
本発明は、前記構成1乃至10のいずれかの直液式筆記具1において、前記インキ吸蔵体3の前端から前記連通管6の各々の前端までの軸方向の距離S1,S2が、前記インキ吸蔵体3全体の軸方向の長さの3%以上50%以下(好ましくは3%以上30%以下)に設定されること(構成11)を要件とする。
(Configuration 11)
According to the present invention, in the direct liquid writing instrument 1 having any one of the configurations 1 to 10, the axial distances S1 and S2 from the front end of the ink storage body 3 to the front ends of the communication pipes 6 are the ink storage units. It is a requirement that the length of the entire body 3 is set to 3% to 50% (preferably 3% to 30%) of the axial length (Configuration 11).

前記直液式筆記具1(構成11)は、インキタンク7の内圧上昇時にインキ吸蔵体3の前端よりインキが漏出することがなく、しかも、筆跡途切れや筆跡カスレのない、ペン先2先端からの十分なインキ流出性が得られる。もし、インキ吸蔵体3の前端からその後方に位置する連通管6の各々の前端までの軸方向の距離S1,S2がインキ吸蔵体3全体の軸方向の長さの3%未満であると、インキタンク7の内圧上昇時にインキ吸蔵体3の前端よりインキが漏出するおそれがある。また、もし、インキ吸蔵体3の前端からその後方に位置する連通管6の各々の前端までの軸方向の距離S1,S2がインキ吸蔵体3全体の軸方向の長さの50%を越えると、連通管6の各々の前端からペン先2先端までの距離が長くなり、インキ流出性が阻害されるおそれがある。 The direct liquid type writing instrument 1 (configuration 11) does not leak ink from the front end of the ink occlusion body 3 when the internal pressure of the ink tank 7 increases, and further, there is no handwriting breakage or handwriting scraping. Sufficient ink outflow is obtained. If the axial distances S1 and S2 from the front end of the ink storage body 3 to the front ends of the communication pipes 6 positioned behind the ink storage body 3 are less than 3% of the axial length of the entire ink storage body 3, When the internal pressure of the ink tank 7 increases, the ink may leak out from the front end of the ink occlusion body 3. Further, if the axial distances S1 and S2 from the front end of the ink storage body 3 to the front ends of the communication pipes 6 positioned behind the ink storage body 3 exceed 50% of the overall length of the ink storage body 3 in the axial direction. The distance from the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 to the tip of the pen tip 2 becomes long, and there is a possibility that the ink outflow property is hindered.

(構成12)
本発明は、前記構成1乃至11のいずれかの直液式筆記具1において、前記インキ吸蔵体3の前端から前記連通管6の各々の前端までの軸方向の距離S1,S2が等しく設定されること(構成12)を要件とする。
(Configuration 12)
According to the present invention, in the direct liquid writing instrument 1 having any one of the configurations 1 to 11, the axial distances S1 and S2 from the front end of the ink occlusion body 3 to the front ends of the communication pipes 6 are set equal. (Configuration 12) is a requirement.

前記直液式筆記具1(構成12)は、インキ吸蔵体3の内部における連通管6の各々の前端の相互間の距離が一層短くなり、連通管6の各々の前端開口部の液シール性が向上し、外部へのインキ漏出を、より一層防止できる。 In the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (Configuration 12), the distance between the front ends of the communication pipes 6 in the ink storage body 3 is further shortened, and the liquid sealability of each front end opening of the communication pipe 6 is improved. This can further prevent ink leakage to the outside.

(構成13)
本発明は、前記構成1乃至12のいずれかの直液式筆記具1において、前記連通管6の各々の前端と前記ペン先2の後端との軸方向の距離T1,T2が10mm(ミリメートル)以内に設定されること(構成13)を要件とする。
(Configuration 13)
According to the present invention, in the direct liquid writing instrument 1 having any one of the configurations 1 to 12, axial distances T1 and T2 between the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 and the rear end of the nib 2 are 10 mm (millimeters). (Configuration 13) is a requirement.

前記直液式筆記具1(構成13)は、初期インキ出し時、連通管6の各々の前端からペン先2の後端にインキが迅速に供給され、短時間で筆記可能となる。もし、連通管6の各々の前端とペン先2の後端との軸方向の距離T1,T2が10mmを越えると、連通管6の各々の前端とペン先2の後端との距離が大きくなり、連通管6の各々の前端からペン先2の後端への迅速なインキ供給できず、初期インキ出し時、筆記可能となるまでに相当の時間を要するおそれがある。尚、前記連通管6の各々の前端は、ペン先2の後端より前方に位置していてもよいし、あるいは、ペン先2の後端より後方に位置していてもよい。 In the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (configuration 13), ink is rapidly supplied from the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 to the rear end of the pen tip 2 at the time of initial ink discharge, and writing can be performed in a short time. If the axial distances T1 and T2 between the front ends of the communication pipes 6 and the rear end of the pen tip 2 exceed 10 mm, the distances between the front ends of the communication pipes 6 and the rear end of the pen tip 2 become large. Therefore, the ink cannot be supplied quickly from the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 to the rear end of the pen tip 2, and there is a possibility that a considerable time is required until writing becomes possible at the time of initial ink ejection. Note that the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 may be located in front of the rear end of the pen tip 2 or may be located in the rear of the rear end of the pen tip 2.

(構成14)
本発明は、前記構成1乃至13のいずれかの直液式筆記具1において、前記連通管6の各々の前端と前記ペン先2の後端との間の間隔が等しく設定されること(構成14)を要件とする。
(Configuration 14)
According to the present invention, in the direct liquid writing instrument 1 according to any one of the configurations 1 to 13, the distance between the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 and the rear end of the nib 2 is set equal (configuration 14). ) As a requirement.

前記直液式筆記具1(構成14)は、初期インキ出し時、インキタンク7からのインキが、複数本の連通管6の中で、いずれの連通管6の前端開口部からペン先2の後端に供給された場合でも、ばらつき無く、一定時間で筆記可能となる。 In the direct liquid writing instrument 1 (configuration 14), the ink from the ink tank 7 is discharged from the front end opening of any of the communication pipes 6 to the back of the pen tip 2 during the initial ink discharge. Even when supplied to the end, writing can be performed in a certain time without variation.

(構成15)
本発明は、前記構成1乃至14のいずれかの直液式筆記具1において、前記インキ吸蔵体3の前端面及びインキ吸蔵体3の後端面が外気と連通されること(構成15)を要件とする。
(Configuration 15)
The present invention requires that the front end surface of the ink occlusion body 3 and the rear end surface of the ink occlusion body 3 communicate with the outside air in the direct liquid writing instrument 1 according to any one of the above configurations 1 to 14 (configuration 15). To do.

前記直液式筆記具1(構成15)は、インキ吸蔵体3の内部の空気を、インキ吸蔵体3の前端面及びインキ吸蔵体3の後端面から逃がすことができる。それにより、インキ吸蔵体3の内部の連通管6の前端開口部から供給されたインキを、前記インキ吸蔵体3の内部の連通管6の前端近傍から、インキ吸蔵体3の前端方向、及び連通管6の前端近傍のインキ吸蔵体3の内部からインキ吸蔵体3の後端方向へスムーズに移動させることができる。特に、インキ吸蔵体3の後端面と外気が連通することにより、温度上昇等によるインキタンク7内の圧力上昇時、インキタンク7内から押し出されたインキが、スムーズに連通管6の前端よりインキ吸蔵体3の連通管6の前端近傍を介して後方へ移動し、インキ吸蔵体3の後方に含浸され、インキの外部への漏出を防ぎ、一方、温度低下等によるインキタンク7内の圧力減少時、インキ吸蔵体3の後方の含浸インキを、インキ吸蔵体3内部の連通管6の前端近傍を介して連通管6の前端開口部より連通管6内を通してインキタンク7内に戻すことができる。 The direct liquid writing instrument 1 (Configuration 15) can release the air inside the ink occlusion body 3 from the front end face of the ink occlusion body 3 and the rear end face of the ink occlusion body 3. As a result, the ink supplied from the front end opening of the communication pipe 6 inside the ink storage body 3 is passed from the vicinity of the front end of the communication pipe 6 inside the ink storage body 3 to the front end direction and the communication of the ink storage body 3. The ink occlusion body 3 in the vicinity of the front end of the tube 6 can be smoothly moved from the inside to the rear end direction of the ink occlusion body 3. In particular, when the pressure in the ink tank 7 rises due to a temperature rise or the like, the ink pushed out from the ink tank 7 smoothly passes through the front end of the communication pipe 6 when the rear end surface of the ink occlusion body 3 communicates with the outside air. It moves rearward through the vicinity of the front end of the communicating pipe 6 of the occlusion body 3 and is impregnated behind the ink occlusion body 3 to prevent leakage of the ink to the outside. At this time, the impregnated ink behind the ink storage body 3 can be returned to the ink tank 7 through the communication pipe 6 from the front end opening of the communication pipe 6 through the vicinity of the front end of the communication pipe 6 inside the ink storage body 3. .

Thereby, the fiber density of the ink storage body 3 in the vicinity of the front end of each communication pipe 6 is set higher than the fiber density of the ink storage body 3 in a portion other than the vicinity of each front end of the communication pipe 6. That is, a high-density portion 31 having a high fiber density (a high-density portion 31 having a high capillary force) and a low-density portion 32 having a low fiber density (a low-density portion 32 having a low capillary force) are formed inside the ink occlusion body 3. The Since the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is located in front of the ink storage body 3, the high density portion 31 is formed in front of the ink storage body 3, and A density portion 32 is formed.

Specifically, the front ends of the communication pipes 6 are arranged at equal intervals on the same circumference centered on the axis of the ink storage body 3. In the present embodiment, since there are two communication pipes 6, the communication pipes 6 are arranged at 180 ° symmetrical positions with respect to the axis of the ink occlusion body 3. Since the nib 2 is located at the axial center of the ink occlusion body 3, the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is not directly connected to the rear end of the nib 2 and is not in contact with the nib 2.

The intermediate member 5 includes a partition wall 52 that partitions the ink storage body 3 and the ink tank 7, and a plurality of intermediate members that protrude forward from the front surface of the partition wall 52 and are pierced and connected to the inside of the ink storage body 3 (specifically 2) communication pipes 6, a connecting pipe 54 that protrudes rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52 and is inserted into the front end opening of the ink tank 7, and an axial direction from the front surface or rear surface of the partition wall 52. And a mounting tube portion 55 that protrudes and is fixed to the inner surface of the shaft tube 11 (the inner surface of the main body portion 112). The ink occlusion body 3 is accommodated in a space (that is, the occlusion body accommodation portion) formed by the shaft cylinder 11 and the partition wall 52. The mounting cylinder portion 55 surrounds the outer periphery of the base portion of each communication pipe 6 or the outer periphery of the connection pipe 54 in front of the partition wall 52. A notch is formed at the rear end of the connection pipe 54. Due to the notch, a protruding piece 54a for pressing one side of the plug 71 is integrally formed at the rear end of the connecting pipe 54. The partition wall 52 has a disk shape, and each of the communication pipe 6, the connection pipe 54, and the attachment cylinder portion 55 has a cylindrical shape. The projecting piece 54a has a circular cross-sectional shape.

前記隔壁52、各々の連通管6(即ち連通管6a,連通管6b)、接続管54、及び取付筒部55は一体に連設される。即ち、中間部材5により、隔壁52、連通管6、接続管54、及び取付筒部55を1部品で構成できる。 The partition wall 52, the respective communication pipes 6 (that is, the communication pipe 6a and the communication pipe 6b), the connection pipe 54, and the mounting cylinder portion 55 are integrally connected. That is, the intermediate member 5 allows the partition wall 52, the communication pipe 6, the connection pipe 54, and the mounting cylinder portion 55 to be configured as one part.

・当接壁部

Abutting wall portion As shown in FIG. 15 (1), an abutting wall portion 52 b made of a plate-like rib is integrally formed on the front surface of the partition wall 52. The abutting wall portion 52b is brought into contact with the rear end surface of the ink storage member 3. A gap 9 communicating with the outside air is formed between the partition wall 52 and the rear end surface of the ink occluding body 3 by the contact wall portion 52b. The gap 9 is communicated with the outside air through the air passage 10. A part of the abutting wall portion 52b is formed between the base portions of the communication pipes 6, and the base side walls of the communication pipes 6 are connected. Thereby, the bending strength of each communication pipe 6 is improved, and the bending of each communication pipe 6 with respect to the partition wall 52 can be suppressed. The abutting wall portion 52b is formed in a branched shape, a radial shape, or a cross shape in cross section.

・連通管
前記連通管6の各々の内部には、軸方向に流通路62が設けられ、前記流通路62が、前記連通管6の各々の両端にて開口される。前記連通管6の各々の前端は、インキ吸蔵体3の内部に位置し且つインキ吸蔵体3の内部前方に開口される。前記連通管6の各々の後端は、インキ吸蔵体3後方のインキタンク7内に開口される。前記複数本の連通管6において、1本の連通管6bが隔壁52後面より後方に突出され、且つ、その連通管6bの後端がインキタンク7内(接続管54内)に位置され、一方、他の連通管6aが隔壁52後面より後方に突出されていない(即ち他の連通管6aの後端が隔壁52後面と一致している)。前記各々の連通管6は、インキ吸蔵体3とインキタンク7との間に並列に配置されるため、インキ吸蔵体3と、その後方のインキタンク7との間に、独立した複数本の流通路62が並列に設けられる。前記連通管6の各々の流通路62は、接続管54内に位置する隔壁52の、軸心より離れた箇所に貫通される。
-Communication pipe The flow path 62 is provided in the inside of each of the communication pipes 6 in the axial direction, and the flow paths 62 are opened at both ends of each of the communication pipes 6. The front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is located inside the ink storage body 3 and is opened in front of the ink storage body 3. The rear end of each of the communication pipes 6 is opened in the ink tank 7 behind the ink storage body 3. In the plurality of communication pipes 6, one communication pipe 6b protrudes rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52, and the rear end of the communication pipe 6b is located in the ink tank 7 (in the connection pipe 54). The other communication pipe 6a does not protrude rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52 (that is, the rear end of the other communication pipe 6a coincides with the rear surface of the partition wall 52). Since each of the communication pipes 6 is arranged in parallel between the ink storage body 3 and the ink tank 7, a plurality of independent circulations are provided between the ink storage body 3 and the ink tank 7 behind the ink storage body 3. A path 62 is provided in parallel. Each flow passage 62 of the communication pipe 6 is penetrated to a location away from the axis of the partition wall 52 located in the connection pipe 54.

前記隔壁52後面から後方に突出する連通管6bの後端の前後方向の位置は、接続管54の後端(即ち突片54aの後端)と略一致しているか、または接続管54の後端(即ち突片54aの後端)より僅かに前方に位置される。即ち、前記隔壁52後面から後方に突出する連通管6bの後端が接続管54の後端(即ち突片54aの後端)から後方に大きく突出されていない。また、前記隔壁52後面から後方に突出する連通管6bは、突片54a内面に近接して配置される。具体的には、前記隔壁52後面から後方に突出する連通管6bは、接続管54の軸心と突片54a内面との間に配置される。 The position in the front-rear direction of the rear end of the communication pipe 6b protruding rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52 substantially coincides with the rear end of the connection pipe 54 (that is, the rear end of the projecting piece 54a) or the rear of the connection pipe 54. It is positioned slightly forward from the end (that is, the rear end of the protruding piece 54a). That is, the rear end of the communication pipe 6b that protrudes rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52 is not greatly protruded rearward from the rear end of the connection pipe 54 (that is, the rear end of the protruding piece 54a). Further, the communication pipe 6b protruding rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52 is disposed close to the inner surface of the protruding piece 54a. Specifically, the communication pipe 6b protruding rearward from the rear surface of the partition wall 52 is disposed between the axial center of the connection pipe 54 and the inner surface of the protruding piece 54a.

前記連通管6の各々の前端は、インキ吸蔵体3の後端から前方に突き刺し挿入され、最後はインキ吸蔵体3の内部のペン先2後端近傍に位置される。前記連通管6の各々の前端がインキ吸蔵体3内に突き刺し挿入される際、連通管6の各々の前端がインキ吸蔵体3の繊維を前方に押圧圧縮する。それにより、各々の連通管6の前端近傍のインキ吸蔵体3の繊維密度が、連通管6の各々の前端近傍以外の部分のインキ吸蔵体3の繊維密度よりも高く設定される。即ち、インキ吸蔵体3内部に、繊維密度の高い高密度部31(毛細管力の大きい高密度部31)と、繊維密度の低い低密度部32(毛細管力の小さい低密度部32)が形成される。インキ吸蔵体3の内部前方には前記高密度部31が形成され、前記高密度部31の後方に前記低密度部32が形成される。前記高密度部31と前記低密度部32とは連接される。前記各々の連通管6は、低密度部32を後方から前方に貫通され、前記連通管6の各々の前端が低密度部32より前方の高密度部31の内部に位置される。尚、本実施の形態において、前記低密度部32の空隙率(気孔率)は、85%〜93%に設定され、前記高密度部31の空隙率は、前記低密度部32の空隙率よりも低く設定され、前記低密度部32の空隙率と前記高密度部31の空隙率との差は、20%に設定されている。 The front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is inserted forward from the rear end of the ink storage body 3 and is finally positioned near the rear end of the pen tip 2 inside the ink storage body 3. When the front ends of the communication pipes 6 are inserted into the ink storage body 3, the front ends of the communication pipes 6 press and compress the fibers of the ink storage body 3 forward. Thereby, the fiber density of the ink storage body 3 in the vicinity of the front end of each communication pipe 6 is set higher than the fiber density of the ink storage body 3 in a portion other than the vicinity of each front end of the communication pipe 6. That is, a high-density portion 31 having a high fiber density (a high-density portion 31 having a high capillary force) and a low-density portion 32 having a low fiber density (a low-density portion 32 having a low capillary force) are formed inside the ink occlusion body 3. The The high density portion 31 is formed in front of the ink occlusion body 3, and the low density portion 32 is formed behind the high density portion 31. The high density portion 31 and the low density portion 32 are connected. Each of the communication pipes 6 penetrates the low density part 32 from the rear to the front, and the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is positioned inside the high density part 31 ahead of the low density part 32. In the present embodiment, the porosity (porosity) of the low density portion 32 is set to 85% to 93%, and the porosity of the high density portion 31 is greater than the porosity of the low density portion 32. Also, the difference between the porosity of the low density portion 32 and the porosity of the high density portion 31 is set to 20%.

前記連通管6の各々の前端は、インキ吸蔵体3の軸心から径方向外方に離れた位置に配置される。詳細には、前記連通管6の各々の前端は、インキ吸蔵体3の軸心を中心とする同一円周上に等間隔で配置される。本実施の形態では、連通管6は2本であるので、前記連通管6はインキ吸蔵体3の軸心に対して180度対称位置に配置される。前記ペン先2がインキ吸蔵体3の軸心に位置しているので、前記連通管6の各々の前端は、ペン先2後端と直接接続されず、ペン先2と非接触状態にあり、インキ吸蔵体3の内部前方(高密度部31)を介してインキ流通可能に接続される。また、前記連通管6の各々の前端は、ペン先2の後端より僅かに後方に位置している。 The front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is disposed at a position that is radially outward from the axis of the ink storage body 3. Specifically, the front ends of the communication pipes 6 are arranged at equal intervals on the same circumference centered on the axis of the ink storage body 3. In the present embodiment, since there are two communication pipes 6, the communication pipes 6 are arranged at 180 ° symmetrical positions with respect to the axis of the ink occlusion body 3. Since the nib 2 is located at the axial center of the ink occlusion body 3, the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is not directly connected to the rear end of the nib 2 and is not in contact with the nib 2. The ink occluding body 3 is connected through the inside front (high density portion 31) so that ink can be distributed. Further, the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 is located slightly behind the rear end of the pen tip 2.

・軸方向の距離
尚、本実施の形態において、前記インキ吸蔵体3全体の軸方向の長さは、28mmに設定される。また、本実施の形態において、前記インキ吸蔵体3の前端から前記連通管6の各々の前端までの軸方向の距離S1,S2は、両者とも14mmに設定される。また、本実施の形態において、前記連通管6の各々の前端と前記ペン先2の後端との軸方向の距離T1,T2は、両者とも3mm(即ち10mm以内)に設定される。
-Axial distance In the present embodiment, the axial length of the entire ink occlusion body 3 is set to 28 mm. In the present embodiment, the axial distances S1 and S2 from the front end of the ink storage body 3 to the front ends of the communication pipes 6 are both set to 14 mm. In the present embodiment, axial distances T1 and T2 between the front end of each of the communication pipes 6 and the rear end of the pen tip 2 are both set to 3 mm (ie, within 10 mm).

・インキタンク

Ink tank The ink tank 7 is a bottomed cylindrical body having a front end opened and a rear end closed, and is obtained by injection molding or blow molding of a synthetic resin. Ink 8 is stored directly in the ink tank 7. The ink 8 stored in the ink tank 7 may be either water-based ink or oil-based ink.

前記インキタンク7の前端開口部内面には、中間部材5の接続管54外面が着脱自在に嵌着される。前記インキタンク7のインキ8が消費され筆記不能となった場合、前記インキタンク7を接続管54から取り外し、内部にインキ8が充填された新たなインキタンク7の前端開口部に接続管54を挿着する。それにより、再び、筆記可能となる。前記新たなインキタンク7の前端開口部は、栓体71により閉鎖されている。具体的には、インキタンク7の前端開口部内面に栓体71が嵌着されている。接続管54をインキタンク7の前端開口部に挿着した際、前記栓体71の片側を接続管54の突片54aにより後方に押圧し、栓体71を外し、インキタンク7の前端開口部が開栓される。ここでは、前記栓体71として、合成樹脂の射出成形体よりなる円板状の栓体71が採用される。尚、前記円板状の栓体71の代わりに球状の栓体を採用することもできる。 The outer surface of the connecting pipe 54 of the intermediate member 5 is detachably fitted to the inner surface of the front end opening of the ink tank 7. When ink 8 in the ink tank 7 is consumed and writing becomes impossible, the ink tank 7 is removed from the connection pipe 54, and the connection pipe 54 is installed in the front end opening of a new ink tank 7 filled with the ink 8 inside. Insert it. Thereby, writing becomes possible again. A front end opening of the new ink tank 7 is closed by a plug 71. Specifically, a plug 71 is fitted on the inner surface of the front end opening of the ink tank 7. When the connection pipe 54 is inserted into the front end opening of the ink tank 7, one side of the plug body 71 is pressed backward by the protruding piece 54 a of the connection pipe 54, the plug body 71 is removed, and the front end opening of the ink tank 7 is removed. Is opened. Here, as the plug body 71, a disk-shaped plug body 71 made of an injection molded body of synthetic resin is employed. A spherical plug can be used instead of the disk-shaped plug 71.

本実施の形態では、前記インキ吸蔵体3の容積V2は、前記インキタンク7と前記各々の連通管6とからなる空間の容積V1の50%〜70%に設定されている。 In the present embodiment, the volume V2 of the ink occlusion body 3 is set to 50% to 70% of the volume V1 of the space formed by the ink tank 7 and the communication pipes 6.

・キャップ
前記キャップ13は、ペン先2側に着脱自在に設けられる。前記キャップ13をペン先2側に装着することにより、ペン先2及び空気通路10の前端開口部が密封され、インキタンク内と外気との連通が遮断される。
Cap The cap 13 is detachably provided on the pen tip 2 side. By attaching the cap 13 to the pen tip 2 side, the pen tip 2 and the front end opening of the air passage 10 are sealed, and the communication between the ink tank and the outside air is blocked.
