Description

The present invention relates to the field of calligraphy supplies, and in particular to ink boxes.

A brush is one of the most commonly used tools for calligraphy and painting enthusiasts. In the process of practicing and creating calligraphy and painting, if a calligraphy or painting enthusiast stops for a certain period of time, the ink on the tip of the brush will often dry and harden, and it will be necessary to soak it in water before using it again. Especially in daily practice, you need to wash your brush in time after writing. Otherwise, the brush will become hard and unusable the next day. In particular, if the weather is dry, the tip of the brush will dry and harden just by leaving it for a while during the use of the brush. is inconvenient. In order to solve the problem that the brush becomes dry and hard after being left for a certain period of time and needs to be washed frequently during use, the inventor of the present invention devised a brush rest, which has already been patented in China. See New Patent Publication CN208306229U. The utility model provides a convenient and moisturizing brush rest, which is a good solution to the problem of calligraphy and painting lovers needing to wash their brushes frequently, but the use of the brush rest is relatively limited. This patent has certain limitations because it is not very efficient in terms of space usage.

The present invention solves the technical problems that conventional ink cartridges and brush rests have a single function, are inefficient in space usage, and are inconvenient to carry. To provide an ink box having functions such as a moisturizing brush rest.

Therefore, the ink box of the present invention comprises a box body, a fixed lid, and a movable lid, the fixed lid being fixedly connected to the top of the box body, and the movable lid being movably connected to the box body or the fixed lid. A water reservoir area and an ink reservoir area are provided within the box body.

Preferably, the box body is provided with a slot, the bottom of the fixed lid is provided with an insert, the fixed lid is inserted through the insert in the bottom into the slot in the box body, and the fixed lid and the movable lid are concentric. The movable lid is provided with two rotating shafts, the box body or the fixed lid is provided with two shaft holes, and the two rotating shafts are located in the two shaft holes respectively. .

Preferably, the box bodies of the water reservoir area and the ink reservoir area are both provided with lower openings, the movable lid is provided with upper openings corresponding to the respective lower openings, and the movable lid is closed. Afterwards, the corresponding upper and lower openings cooperate to form a brush-holding hole.

Preferably, the movable lid is further provided with a handle.

Preferably, a partition plate is provided inside the box body, and the space inside the box body is divided into a water reservoir area and an ink reservoir area by the partition plate.

Preferably, a water reservoir box and an ink reservoir box are provided in the water reservoir area and the ink reservoir area, respectively.

Preferably, both the water reservoir box and the ink reservoir box are provided with sealed lids.

Preferably, the movable lid is provided with a locking member, the box body is provided with a locking groove, and the locking member and the locking groove cooperate with each other.

Preferably, the ink box is further provided with a positioning mechanism, and the positioning mechanism fixes the movable lid and the fixed lid after the movable lid is opened.

Preferably, the positioning mechanism includes a locking member on the movable lid and a locking groove on the fixed lid, and the locking member on the movable lid and the locking groove on the fixed lid cooperate with each other.

Preferably, the top and bottom of the brush holding hole are provided with mutually sticking stoppers, and the stoppers are made of elastic material, and the elastic material is either silica gel, sponge or rubber.

The present invention achieves the moisturizing function of the brush by combining the functions of various commonly used calligraphy tools such as moisturizing brush rests, ink cartridges, and brush washes. In addition, a water storage area is provided in the main body of the ink box, and clean water is injected into the water storage area, and the volatilized water vapor maintains a constant concentration in this sealed space for a long time, creating a moist environment for the brush. can provide. In addition, it can be used as a brush wash while realizing the moisturizing function of the brush, has a simple structure, is multi-functional, saves space, is convenient to use and carry, does not need to be washed repeatedly, and saves time and water. There is an advantage that In addition, when closing the movable part of the box lid, the stoppers provided above and below the brush holding hole are used to leave the brush, and the water vapor in the spherical crown-shaped box lid escapes from the gap between the brush and the notch. It can prevent sagging, better moisturizing, and allow the brush to be put down and reassembled.

The present invention overcomes the shortcomings of the "brush rest," which is a utility model already patented by the inventor of the present application, which has few functions. While saving money, it keeps the brush moist and does not need to be washed, freeing calligraphy and painting lovers from frequent brush cleaning, realizing the convenience of "pick up the brush, write, and leave the brush." , very helpful for calligraphy and painting lovers to improve their calligraphy skills. In particular, the ink box of the present invention is suitable for elementary school students learning calligraphy and painting, freed from the trouble of frequent brush cleaning, and can save more time to concentrate on practice and painting. Also, when the brushes are temporarily not used, one or more brushes can be placed on the brush holder, the movable lid of the brush holder lid can be closed, and the water vapor in the water reservoir box can be used to keep the brush moist. It solves the problem that the ink is easy to dry when the brush is put down and needs to be washed repeatedly, so it is suitable for calligraphy lovers.
