  • the index finger rests on a section of the writing instrument.
  • a device is also known from Japanese patent abstract 2005271570 A, which can be clamped to an index finger via a ring-shaped element.
  • a sleeve is attached to the side of the device so that you can insert a pen there. This device is therefore suitable for guiding a pen by pushing it onto an index finger using the device.
  • British Patent Specification 24,670 from 1897 describes a pen holder with a finger clip.
  • a larger ring-shaped sleeve on the pen holder that can be slipped over the index finger.
  • On the underside of this larger sleeve there are two spaced smaller ring ridges through which you can push a pen so that the pen can be better guided with the help of the pen holder.
  • speed reading techniques involve reading significantly more pages of a text within a given period of time than is the case with normal reading.
  • the eyes follow a central area of a page of text and read it line by line, including the lateral areas to the right and left of the central area.
  • some people use their finger to slide over the text to guide the eye.
  • this pen serves as a kind of pointer pen and is not used for its actual writing function.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a speed reading aid available, which you can quickly and flexibly lead back and forth when reading fast without causing fatigue and which, in addition to the function as a Help with speed reading provides even more functions.
  • a device of the type mentioned above that serves as a quick reading aid, in which at least one pen or functional pen is concealed on the holder and can be used for a writing function or another function after the pointer pen has been removed.
  • the invention provides that the pointing stick is attached to the holder in a detachable manner, and a writing pen or a functional pen is located on the holder so that it is covered and revealed when the pointing stick is removed.
  • the stylus or the functional pen when using the stylus or the functional pen, the stylus is removed from the device and the stylus or the functional pen can then be used for a writing function or another type of function, with the advantage that the device is clipped to a finger, making it easier to hold the pen while writing.
  • the device according to the invention thus provides the user with multiple functionality, it being particularly advantageous here if other functions are possible that are often required in connection with fast reading, such as the write function or other functions that are explained in more detail below.
  • the device can be used to support fast reading by using the stylus and then also has the option, for example, of removing the stylus and using the stylus that is then available to make annotations in the text being read.
  • the distance between the tip of the stylus and the hand is increased compared to using only the finger to point, thereby obscuring less text. This increases access to blocks of text and facilitates potential information absorption during speed reading.
  • the above feature, according to which the stylus or functional pen is attached to the holder in a concealed manner, is to be understood in such a way that the stylus or functional pen is not visible when the pointing stick is used and the device is therefore used as a speed reading aid.
  • the stylus or functional pen is thus attached to the holder in such a way that it only appears when the pointing stick is removed from the holder.
  • the pen or functional pen can thus be guided by the user using the holder in a similar hand position to the pointer stick previously.
  • it is not necessary to detach the holder from the hand but it is sufficient for the user who wants to use the pen to simply pull the pointing stick from the holder, while the holder itself can remain clipped to the user's finger.
  • a sleeve element is provided on the pointing stick at its end facing the holder, which sheathing element surrounds the writing pen or functional pen when the pointing stick is attached to the holder.
  • This covering element thus conceals the writing pen or functional pen when the pointing stick is on the holder.
  • the sleeve element is pushed over the pen or functional pen attached to the holder, so to speak, when the pointing stick is attached to the holder. If the user removes the stylus from the holder, for example because he wants to write something in the text to be read, the stylus appears, which is in a suitable position on the holder, so that the user can continue to clamp it with his finger Bracket can lead to a similar ergonomic orientation when writing.
  • At least one fastening element is provided for detachably attaching the pointing stick to the holder, to the pointing stick and/or holder, in particular corresponding fastening elements are provided, with at least one fastening element being designed as a magnetic element, for example.
  • a magnetic element which interacts with a metallic element on the respective other part (holder or pointer), represents one of several possible alternatives for a simple and quickly detachable attachment, since it can simply be pulled off by overcoming the force of attraction of the magnet is enough to remove the pointing stick from the holder.
  • other fastening elements can also be considered, such as snap-in or click connections, which can also be released with comparatively little tensile force.
  • a bayonet-type attachment is used, in which an axial movement is coupled with a rotary movement. Velcro fasteners, snap fasteners or the like would also be considered.
  • a preferred further development of the present invention provides a particularly trough-shaped support area on the holder in the area of the clamping device, which is used to support a user's finger.
  • This embodiment variant is particularly ergonomic for the user, since he can place his finger in a depression, which improves guidance when moving the pointer stick or the pen and thus its handling.
  • the at least one stylus or functional pen is preferably arranged below the support area when the device is in the usage position. This arrangement is advantageous because after removing the pointing stick from the holder, the stylus or functional stylus that is then exposed is in a position that is favorable for guidance during the writing process below and preferably slightly in front of the finger placed on the support area. For the alternative solution with a pointer stick that can be extended or pushed out, it is also advantageous for convenient operation if the pen is below the pointer stick.
  • the end of the elongate pointer stick facing the holder is adjacent to the support area in its extension and is approximately axially aligned with it. This ensures that the pointer can be guided ergonomically by moving your fingers with less effort. Forearm and wrist no longer have to be moved. Due to the axial alignment, the pointing stick forms a direct extension of the user's finger pointing towards the text in the same direction.
  • the device comprises at least one device for the acoustic and/or optical recording of information, which is preferably located on the holder and which can preferably be removed from the holder and optionally mounted on the left-hand or right-hand side of the holder.
  • recorded text information for example, can be directly recorded acoustically or optically and is thus later accessible to the user.
  • a miniaturized camera can be provided which films text information.
  • the user can read text or Speak comments about this into a facility microphone, which will be stored by the facility so that the information is available again later.
  • the user can use the acoustic recording for verification, for example by speaking recorded texts in their own words. In this way, the user can check his understanding of the text. Attaching the device for recording to the holder is a good idea, since the device is then available both when the pointing stick is mounted and when it is removed.
  • the acoustic recording unit can be connected, for example via Bluetooth, to another device, for example a smartphone or tablet, and contains, for example, a microphone unit and control buttons.
  • this module which can be attached to and removed from the finger holder on the right or left, voice recordings can be made, which can then be saved on the connected device.
  • Voice inputs can also be made, which then trigger actions on the connected device, for example the output of a word translation or explanation of a word via the loudspeakers of a mobile phone.
  • the recorder unit can resemble a control unit of a Bluetooth headset, but without headphones and it serves as an interface and can be operated, for example, by pressing a button. For example, the user can read with the stylus, then move it back and remove it and make handwritten notes and then use the recorder unit to record voice memos or look up specific words by pressing a button with the thumb to start the function.
  • the device according to the invention advantageously offers the user a further additional function in addition to the pointing stick as a quick reading aid and a pen. This is convenient for the user, since there is no need to purchase a separate device for such recording.
  • Devices for optical or acoustic recording are now available with very small dimensions, as are the microprocessors for storing and processing the data, so that such a device can easily be accommodated on the support of the device.
  • the at least one stylus is a pencil, felt-tip pen, gel pen or ballpoint pen and/or the at least one functional stylus is a capacitive input stylus or an EMR (electromagnetic resonance) stylus.
