In addition, by using gold, copper, brass, etc. for the pen nib member, and using wood, bamboo, etc. for the pen body, it is possible to realize a stylus pen that has a high-class feel and adapts to the user's hand as it is used. Can do. Further, by making the appearance of the stylus pen reminiscent of a platypus, the user's attachment to the stylus pen can be increased.
以下、本発明の実施形態について説明する。
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described.
図１に示すように、スタイラスペン１は、両端を有する誘電性のペン本体２と、ペン本体２の一方の端に固定された導電性のペン先部材３と、を有する。ペン本体２は、木材でできている。ペン先部材３は、金属でできている。図２に示すように、ペン先部材３は、タッチパネルの表面Ｐと接触するペン先面を有する。ペン先面は、相隣接する２つの接触領域３Ａ、３Ｂからなる。接触領域３Ａ、３Ｂは、稜線（境界線）３Ｃで区画されている。タッチパネルの表面Ｐに対するペン先部材３の角度を変えることにより、２つの接触領域３Ａ、３Ｂの一方をタッチパネルＰに接触させることができる。
As shown in FIG. 1, the stylus pen 1 includes a dielectric pen body 2 having both ends, and a conductive pen tip member 3 fixed to one end of the pen body 2. The pen body 2 is made of wood. The nib member 3 is made of metal. As shown in FIG. 2, the pen tip member 3 has a pen tip surface that contacts the surface P of the touch panel. The pen tip surface is composed of two contact areas 3A and 3B adjacent to each other. The contact areas 3A and 3B are partitioned by a ridgeline (boundary line) 3C. By changing the angle of the pen tip member 3 with respect to the surface P of the touch panel, one of the two contact areas 3A and 3B can be brought into contact with the touch panel P.
ペン先部材３には、金、銅、真鍮などが使用される。ペン先部材３の基端部は、ペン本体２の端部に埋設されている。ペン本体２の端部には、ペン先部材３の抜けを防止するべく、固定軸６が設けられている。固定軸６は、ペン先部材３と同じ金属でできている。固定軸６は、ペン本体２の端部の左右の側面に露出している。ペン本体２の端部、ペン先部材３及び固定軸６からなる部分の形態が、カモノハシの頭、くちばし及び目を想起させる。ペン本体２は、カモノハシの頭から胴にかけての部分を想起させる。
The pen tip member 3 is made of gold, copper, brass or the like. The base end portion of the pen tip member 3 is embedded in the end portion of the pen body 2. A fixed shaft 6 is provided at the end of the pen body 2 to prevent the pen tip member 3 from coming off. The fixed shaft 6 is made of the same metal as the pen tip member 3. The fixed shaft 6 is exposed on the left and right side surfaces of the end portion of the pen body 2. The form of the part consisting of the end of the pen body 2, the pen tip member 3 and the fixed shaft 6 reminds the head, beak and eyes of a platypus. The pen body 2 recalls the part of the platypus from the head to the torso.
ペン先部材３の基端部は、スタイラスペン１の使用時にその使用者の人差し指の指先が触れる位置まで延在している。ペン本体２には、ペン先部材３の基端部の一部（人体導通部）４を露出させるべくスリットが形成される。ペン先部材３がタッチパネルＰに接触している状態で人体導通部４に使用者の指が触れると、使用者の体とタッチパネルＰとが電気的に導通するため、ペン先部材３が接触している部分から電荷が放電する。タッチパネルは、その電荷を検出することで、ペン先部材３が触れた位置（タッチ位置）の検出を行う。
The base end portion of the pen tip member 3 extends to a position where the fingertip of the user's index finger touches when the stylus pen 1 is used. A slit is formed in the pen body 2 so as to expose a part (human body conduction portion) 4 of the base end portion of the pen tip member 3. When the user's finger touches the human body conduction part 4 while the pen tip member 3 is in contact with the touch panel P, the user's body and the touch panel P are electrically connected to each other, so that the pen tip member 3 comes into contact. Electric charge is discharged from the part where it is. A touch panel detects the position (touch position) which the pen tip member 3 touched by detecting the electric charge.
図２乃至図５に示すように、両接触領域３Ａ、３Ｂは、いずれも平坦ではなく、ペン先部材３の前後方向に曲率を有して若干湾曲しているため、タッチパネルＰに対するペン先部材３の角度（傾き、姿勢）に応じて、それぞれの接触領域３Ａ、３Ｂの更に一部の領域がタッチパネルＰに接触することになる。
As shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, both the contact areas 3 </ b> A and 3 </ b> B are not flat, and are slightly curved with a curvature in the front-rear direction of the pen tip member 3. Depending on the angle 3 (tilt, posture), a part of each of the contact areas 3A and 3B comes into contact with the touch panel P.

このスタイラスペン１は、ペン本体２の他端にも導電性のペン先部材５が固定されている。この第２のペン先部材５は、第１のペン先部材３とは異なる角度でペン先面がカットされているので2つのペン先部材３、５を使い分けることで、書き心地や入力範囲（線の

Since the pen tip surface of the second pen tip member 5 is cut at an angle different from that of the first pen tip member 3, writing comfort and input range ( Line thickness can be changed.

なお、このスタイラスペン１は、タッチパネル保護用シートとともに提供することが望ましい。ペン先部材３との摩擦係数が各々異なる複数種類のタッチパネル保護用シートを用意しておけば、タッチパネル保護用シートの種類によって、ペン先部材３の滑り具合（書き心地）を選択することが可能となる。
In addition, it is desirable to provide this stylus pen 1 together with a touch panel protection sheet. If a plurality of types of touch panel protection sheets having different friction coefficients with the pen tip member 3 are prepared, it is possible to select the degree of sliding (writing comfort) of the pen tip member 3 depending on the type of the touch panel protection sheet. It becomes.
また、ペン先部材３のタッチパネルＰと接触する部分を塩化ビニール等の薄い保護膜で被覆することで、タッチパネルＰを傷つけないようにしてもよい。
Alternatively, the touch panel P may be prevented from being damaged by covering the portion of the pen tip member 3 that is in contact with the touch panel P with a thin protective film such as vinyl chloride.
また、ペン先部材３は、無垢からの削り出しのものや、軽量化やコスト削減の為に空洞になっているもの、また木やプラスチック、革などに金属箔を施したものでもよい。ペン先部材３に金属箔を施したものは、箔が剥がれないように塩化ビニール等の薄い保護膜で被覆しておくことが望ましい。ペン先部材３を塩化ビニールなどの保護膜で覆う場合、その弾性膜自体に電気を通しやすい金属を含有させることで、保護膜を厚くしてもタッチパネルＰの感度を鈍らせることなく、且つクッション性を高めることができる。
Also, the nib member 3 may be one that has been machined from solid, one that is hollow for weight reduction and cost reduction, or one that is made of metal, foil, wood, plastic, or leather. It is desirable to coat the nib member 3 with a metal foil with a thin protective film such as vinyl chloride so that the foil does not peel off. When the nib member 3 is covered with a protective film such as vinyl chloride, the elastic film itself contains a metal that can easily conduct electricity, so that even if the protective film is thickened, the sensitivity of the touch panel P is not dulled and cushioned. Can increase the sex.
