NONPOISONOUS ANTIBIOSIS PENCIL AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF
Technical Field The present invention relates to manufacturing of a writing tool. More particularly, the present invention relates to a nontoxic antibiotic pencil and a method of manufacturing the same in which white axies being a main material of the pencil undergo an antibiotic or sterilization process, the white axles are dipped into an aromatic material so that a sweet fragrance emits from the pencil and the
exterior of the pencil is formed using a thermostat ic character film, whereby various patterns are revealed by external temperature and intelligence of users such as children is developed while harmfulness is removed and a sweet fragrance emits from the pencil.
Background Art FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the structure of a common
pencil . The pencil 10 of FIG. 1 has a structure in which a pencil
heartwood 120 is formed between two wood axle plates having a flat
plate shape, which will be a first pencil white axle 110. To this end, a long concave-convex groove is formed on the first wood axle plate so
that the pencil heartwood 120 is located there. The pencil heartwood 120 is inserted into the concave-convex groove. A second wood axle
plate is then covered on the first wood axle plate. Thereafter, the completed pencil is cut into individual pencils. The pencil 10 completed thus includes the pencil white axle 110, the pencil heartwood 120 and a white axle terminal 130, as shown in
FIG. 1. In the conventional pencil, however, in order to improve a sense of beauty and lignum of a pencil, the wood axle plate that is prepared for the first time is dyed using chemicals that are harmful to the human body. Thus, there is a problem that a user has a headache due to the chemicals. In reality, there are many cases that kindergarteners or children have a headache due to the above reason. In order to dilute the harmfulness smell, a product from which a fragrance emits from a pencil in which an aromatic material is absorbed when preparing a wood axle plate has been commercialized. However, this product has problems that it makes its working process
complicated and it does not fundamentally obviate harmfulness of a wood axle plate and dyeing.
Further, the conventional pencil contains a bacillus that is contained a lot in the wood axle plate, etc. in the process of manufacturing the pencil. Therefore, users such as kindergarteners and children can inhale harmful bacilli through trivial physical contact
behavior such as biting the pencil or rubbing the eyes with the hands that touched the pencil. Further, these hazardous articles and bacilli
are harmful to the health. Moreover, with the development of technology, there is a need for a pencil of a high quality and a pencil having sensuous and visual
effects.
Disclosure of Invention Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of the
above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a nontoxic antibiotic pencil in which all materials of the pencil undergo an antibiotic or sterilization process, thus obviating various bacilli that are harmful to users, and the pencil is dipped with an aromatic material so that a sweet fragrance emits from the pencil, and a method of manufacturing the same. Another object of the present invention is to provide a nontoxic antibiotic pencil in which the exterior of the pencil is formed using a character design film by a thermostat ic ink so that intelligence and sensitivity of kindergarteners or children can be developed, and a method of manufacturing the same.
To achieve the above object, according to the present invention, there is provided a method of manufacturing a nontoxic antibiotic pencil, comprising a first step in which one wood axle plate to be used as an antibiotic white axle of the pencil is contained in a combination solution to which an antibiotic agent is added in order to
remove harmfulness of the pencil, the wood axle plate is dipped in a solution having a temperature of about 10 to 20°C for sterilization, the wood axle plate is taken out from the solution, the wood axle plate is boiled at a temperature ranging from about 60 to 70°C for a predetermined time, and the wood axle plate is then naturally dried to prepare the wood axle plate 210a for an antibiotic white axle 210; a
second step in which long grooves are formed in the wood axle plate formed in the first step so that the grooves are spaced by a predetermined distance, pencil heartwood are laid on the long grooves,
the other wood axle plate is covered on the one wood axle plate both of which are then compressed, and the compressed wood axle plates are cut to formed a desired shape; and a third step in which a white axle terminal is formed at one end of the exterior of the pencil cut between the pencil heartwood.

Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention The present invention will now be described in detail in connection with preferred embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIGS. 2(A) to 2(C) show process steps for embodying a method of manufacturing a nontoxic antibiotic pencil according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Referring first to FIG. 2(A), as a first step, wood axle plates
210a to be used as an antibiotic white axle 210 are contained in an antibiotic solution in which distilled water of 25 to 35 weight%,
hydrogenous colors of 17 to 23 weight % , an inorganic antibiotic agent of 25 to 35 weight % and a binder of 17 to 23 weight % are combined and is dipped into water whose temperature is approximately 10 to
20 °C for approximately 48 hours.
Thereafter, the wood axle plates 210a are taken out from the antibiotic solution and is then boiled at a temperature ranging from about 60 to 70 °C for about 120 hours. Next, the wood axle plates 210a
are dried naturally, thus completing a wood axle plates 210a for an antibiotic white axle 210 as shown in FIG. 2(A). After the first step is performed, a fragrance injection process in which a completed nontoxic antibiotic pencil 20 is processed to emit a sweet fragrance can be selectively performed. In the fragrance injection process, the wood axle plates 210a on
which the antibiotic process is carried out are dipped into a frankincense solution in which distilled water of 55 to 65 weight%, a binder of 12 to 18 weight%, a natural hydrogenous aromatic agent of 22 to 28 weight %, oily perfume of 3 to 8 weight % and an ant i foaming agent of 3 to 8 weight % are combined for approximately 3 to 6 hours
and is then dried. Thus, a sweet fragrance can emit from the completed antibiotic pencil 20. If a hot wind is employed in this dry process, it is preferred that the hot wind is performed from the bottom to the top of the wood axle plates 210a so that a leveling phenomenon is not generated. If
the dry is good, a natural fragrance can be obtained. Further, a fragrance used in this process may be aromatic perfume, rosemary perfume or the like. Referring to FIG. 2(B), long grooves into which the pencil
heartwood 220 will be inserted are formed in the two wood axle plates 210a by a predetermined width so that they are spaced apart as much as the diameter of the antibiotic pencil 20. The pencil heartwood 220 is located on the grooves. The two axle plates 210a are disposed to face each other and are then compressed together. In this state, the two axle plates 210a are cut in order to obtain a desired shape.
Thereafter, referring to FIG. 2(C), the surface of an individual
pencil trimmed thus is processed and a white axle terminal 230 is then formed at one side of the pencil. The nontoxic antibiotic pencil 20 is
thus completed. FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing the structure of the
nontoxic antibiotic pencil manufactured by the method in FIG. 2, wherein a cross section of the pencil taken along line a - a' is shown at the right bottom of FIG. 3. Referring to FIG. 3, the completed nontoxic antibiotic pencil 20
can be largely classified into three sections; the antibiotic white axle 210, the pencil heartwood 220 and white axle terminal 230. As described above, the antibiotic white axle 210 undergoes an antibiotic and sterilization process so that it is not harmful to users. FIGS. 4(A) to 4(C) show process steps for embodying a method of manufacturing a nontoxic antibiotic pencil according to another embodiment of the present invention.
In the method of manufacturing the nontoxic antibiotic pencil
according to this embodiment, it can be seen that steps of FIGS. 4(A) and (B) are the same as those of FIG. 2, but a process in which a character film having a thermostatic function in which various
patterns are designed is wound on the exterior of the pencil is added, as shown in FIG. 4(C). In this process, the thermostatic character film 240 is formed using a thermostatic film solution in which a thermostatic ink of 82 to 90 weight % and a reducer of 8 to 10 weight % are mixed so that it has viscosity of approximately 65 to 75% and concentration of
approximately 27 to 33%. The thermostatic character film 240 formed thus is wound on the circumference of the pencil. Referring to FIG. 4(D), the surface of the pencil is processed
and the white axle terminal 230 is then formed at one side of the exterior of the pencil, thereby completing a nontoxic antibiotic pencil 20 of another shape.
FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing the structure of the nontoxic antibiotic pencil manufactured by the method in FIG. 4,
wherein a cross section of the pencil taken along line b - b' is shown at the right bottom of FIG. 5. If the surface of the nontoxic antibiotic pencil 20 is wound with the thermostatic character film 240, various designed patterns are revealed depending on ambient temperature and a temperature of the hands or not revealed. This stimulates and develops intelligence and
sensitivity of a pencil user, particularly kindergarteners and children and has a great influence upon learning. The wood axle plates 210a undergoes an antibiotic or sterilization and is fabricated using
the antibiotic white axle 210. It can be, however, seen that the antibiotic pencils 20 in the embodiments of FIG. 3 and FIG. 5 have different structures. The nontoxic antibiotic pencils 20 of the present invention could not be fabricated simply. The inventor of the nontoxic antibiotic pencil 20 according to the present invention had a mind to develop a pencil that is not harmful to the human body by taking that children usually uses the pencil and harmfulness of a conventional pencil may cause a significant disease into consideration. In this connection, the inventor invented the nontoxic antibiotic pencil 20 of the present invention for which an antibiotic process is performed and the
properties of the wood axle plates 210a are not changed even in a state where the surface of the pencil is processed by the thermostatic character film 240 through lots of experiments.
Furthermore, in manufacturing the nontoxic antibiotic pencil 20 of the present invention, the shape (a cross-section) of the pencil may be hexagonal , square, circular, screw, etc.
