Description

本発明は、筆記具を構成する筒体の一方の端部外周面に、該筒体の他方の端部に向かって、長手方向に沿って延びるクリップを具備し、該クリップに、熱変色性インキの筆跡を摩擦し、その際に生じる摩擦熱で前記熱変色性インキの筆跡を熱変色可能なゴム状弾性を有する摩擦体を装着してなる熱変色性筆記具に関する。   The present invention comprises a clip extending along the longitudinal direction toward the other end of the cylinder on the outer peripheral surface of one end of the cylinder constituting the writing instrument, and the thermochromic ink is provided on the clip. The thermochromic writing instrument is equipped with a rubber-like elastic friction body that can thermally discolor the thermochromic ink with the frictional heat generated at the time.

従来から、筆記具を構成する筒体の一方の端部外周面に、該筒体の他方の端部に向かって、長手方向に沿って延びるクリップを具備してなる筆記具はよく知られていて、特開2004−330513号「塗布具用クリップ組付け構造」等に開示されている。   Conventionally, a writing instrument comprising a clip extending along the longitudinal direction toward the other end of the cylinder on the outer peripheral surface of one end of the cylinder constituting the writing instrument is well known, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-330513 “clip assembly structure for applicator” and the like.

しかし、前記した特許文献2など、クリップに摩擦体を装着する場合、摩擦体の使用時にクリップと紙面等の被筆記面が当接しないように、クリップからの突出量を大きくする必要があった。そのため、ペンケースなどに収納する場合やポケットに挟持したときに邪魔になりやすい等の課題があった。   However, when attaching a frictional body to the clip, such as the above-mentioned Patent Document 2, it is necessary to increase the protruding amount from the clip so that the clip and a writing surface such as a paper surface do not contact when the frictional body is used. . Therefore, there are problems such as being easily disturbed when stored in a pen case or when held in a pocket.

こうした問題を鑑みて、クリップを小さくすること、摩擦体を薄くする等、クリップからの突出量を小さくすることが考えられるが、前者は、クリップ自体を小さくすることでクリップ強度が低下する恐れがあり、繰り返しの使用などによってクリップが破損する恐れがあり、後者は、摩擦体使用時の感触が悪くなるとともに、摩擦部が弾性変形し難くなり、クリップと摩擦体の装着部への応力が増大し、摩擦体がクリップから外れやすく、移動時などで摩擦部が損傷すると、クリップが露出する恐れがあった。   In view of these problems, it is conceivable to reduce the amount of protrusion from the clip, such as making the clip smaller or making the friction body thinner, but the former may reduce the clip strength by making the clip itself smaller. There is a risk that the clip may be damaged by repeated use, etc. The latter causes the feeling when using the friction body to deteriorate and the friction part becomes difficult to elastically deform, increasing the stress on the clip and the attachment part of the friction body However, if the friction body is easily detached from the clip and the friction portion is damaged during movement, the clip may be exposed.

本発明はこれらの従来技術に鑑みてなされたものであって、クリップに装着した摩擦体の使用時に、クリップが当接し難い熱変色性筆記具を提供することにある。   The present invention has been made in view of these prior arts, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a thermochromic writing instrument in which the clip does not easily come into contact when a friction body attached to the clip is used.

本発明は、前記問題を解決するために、筆記具を構成する筒体の一方の端部外周面に、前記筒体の他方の端部に向かって、長手方向に沿って延びるクリップを具備し、該クリップに、熱変色性インキの筆跡を摩擦し、その際に生じる摩擦熱で前記熱変色性インキの筆跡を熱変色可能なゴム状弾性を有する摩擦体を装着してなる熱変色性筆記具であって、前記摩擦体が、少なくとも前記クリップの表面より外方に***した前記熱変色性インキの筆跡を摩擦する摩擦部を有するとともに、前記クリップの表面から***する前記摩擦部の肉厚が、前記摩擦部の他方の端部の肉厚に対し、一方の端部の肉厚を厚くしてあることを特徴する。   In order to solve the above problem, the present invention comprises a clip extending along the longitudinal direction toward the other end of the cylinder on the outer peripheral surface of one end of the cylinder constituting the writing instrument, A thermochromic writing instrument comprising a frictional body having rubbery elasticity capable of thermally discoloring the handwriting of the thermochromic ink by frictional heat generated at the time when the handwriting of the thermochromic ink is rubbed on the clip. The friction body has a friction portion that rubs at least the thermochromic ink handwriting raised outward from the surface of the clip, and the thickness of the friction portion raised from the surface of the clip is: The thickness of the one end portion is made thicker than the thickness of the other end portion of the friction portion.

また、前記熱変色性筆記具の軸心からクリップの表面までの距離が、前記摩擦部の他方の端部に対向する位置に対し、前記摩擦部の一方の端部に対向する位置までの距離が短いことを特徴する。   Further, the distance from the axial center of the thermochromic writing instrument to the surface of the clip is a distance from the position facing the other end of the friction part to the position facing the one end of the friction part. Characterized by shortness.

また、前記熱変色性筆記具の軸心からの距離が最も離間している摩擦部の頂部が、前記摩擦部の一方の端部に位置することを特徴する。   Further, the top of the friction part that is the farthest from the axis of the thermochromic writing instrument is located at one end of the friction part.

本願発明の第1の構成によれば、少なくとも前記クリップの表面より外方に***した前記熱変色性インキの筆跡を摩擦する摩擦部を有するとともに、前記クリップの表面からの前記摩擦部の肉厚が、前記摩擦部の一方の端部の肉厚に対し、他方の端部の肉厚を厚くすることで、摩擦体を使用し易く、且つ摩擦体を外れ難くする効果を奏する。これは、クリップ表面より外方に***した摩擦部を、紙面等に筆記した熱変色性インキの筆跡を摩擦するときに、摩擦体の摩擦部をクリップの他方の端部に設けることで、クリップが直接、紙面等に当接し難く、且つ他方の端部の肉厚を厚くすることで、摩擦体が弾性変形し易く、摩擦体とクリップとの装着部への応力を緩和するためである。   According to the first configuration of the present invention, at least the frictional portion that rubs the handwriting of the thermochromic ink that protrudes outward from the surface of the clip, and the thickness of the frictional portion from the surface of the clip. However, by increasing the thickness of the other end portion relative to the thickness of one end portion of the friction portion, there is an effect that the friction body can be easily used and the friction body is hardly detached. This is because when the friction part protruding outward from the clip surface is rubbed against the handwriting of the thermochromic ink written on the paper or the like, the friction part of the friction body is provided at the other end of the clip. This is because the friction body is easily elastically deformed by reducing the stress on the mounting portion between the friction body and the clip, by making it difficult to directly contact the paper surface or the like and increasing the thickness of the other end.

本願発明の第2の構成によれば、前記熱変色性筆記具の軸心からクリップの表面までの距離が、前記摩擦部の一方の端部に対向する位置に対し、前記摩擦部の他方の端部に対向する位置までの距離が短いために、前記熱変色性筆記具の軸心から摩擦部の表面までの距離を長くすることなく、摩擦体の摩擦部の肉厚を効率的に厚くすることができる。   According to the second configuration of the present invention, the distance from the axial center of the thermochromic writing instrument to the surface of the clip is opposite to the one end of the friction part, and the other end of the friction part. Since the distance to the position facing the part is short, the thickness of the friction part of the friction body is efficiently increased without increasing the distance from the axis of the thermochromic writing instrument to the surface of the friction part. Can do.

本願発明の第3の構成によれば、前記熱変色性筆記具の軸心からの距離が最も離間している摩擦部表面の頂部が、前記摩擦部の一方の端部に位置することで、摩擦部を、紙面等に当接しやすく、筆記した熱変色性インキの筆跡を摩擦しやすくすることができる。   According to the third configuration of the present invention, the top portion of the surface of the friction portion that is the farthest from the axis of the thermochromic writing instrument is located at one end of the friction portion, so that the friction The portion can be easily brought into contact with the paper surface or the like, and the written hand of the thermochromic ink can be easily rubbed.

Also, it has a back part protruding to the cylinder side, so that the friction part protruding outward from the clip surface does not directly contact the paper surface when rubbing the handwriting of the thermochromic ink written on the paper surface etc. The back surface portion is preferable because the movement of the friction member on the front surface side can be suppressed.

また、裏面部の少なくとも一部が、クリップと後軸間に位置するとともに、摩擦部と裏面部とで、前記クリップを保持することで、摩擦体の移動抑制を高めることができる。また、ゴム状弾性を有する摩擦体が、クリップと後軸間に挟持してあることで、クリップをポケット等に挟持した時、クリップの撓みによるクリップと後軸との連設する部分に生じる応力を、挟持した摩擦体が緩和するため、クリップの破損や装着力の低下を抑制する効果も奏する。   In addition, at least a part of the back surface portion is located between the clip and the rear shaft, and holding the clip between the friction portion and the back surface portion can increase the movement suppression of the friction body. In addition, since the friction body having rubber-like elasticity is sandwiched between the clip and the rear shaft, when the clip is sandwiched between the pocket and the like, the stress generated in the portion where the clip and the rear shaft are connected due to the bending of the clip Since the sandwiched friction body relaxes, there is also an effect of suppressing breakage of the clip and reduction of the mounting force.

本実施例では、便宜上、筒体として、回転カムからなる出没機構を具備した出没式筆記具の軸筒(後軸)を例示しているが、筆記具を構成する筒体であれば、回転繰り出し等、出没機構は特に限定されるものではなく、キャップ式筆記具の軸筒やキャップを筒体としてあってもよい。   In this embodiment, for the sake of convenience, a shaft cylinder (rear shaft) of a retractable writing instrument provided with a retracting mechanism composed of a rotating cam is illustrated as a cylindrical body. However, if the cylindrical body constitutes the writing instrument, rotation feeding, etc. The intruding mechanism is not particularly limited, and a shaft cylinder or a cap of a cap-type writing instrument may be used as a cylinder.

また、本実施形態では、便宜上、摩擦体を装着したクリップの後端部は、クリップの後端に向かって、熱変色性筆記具の軸心側へ傾斜して設けて、熱変色性筆記具の軸心からクリップ表面までの距離を短くするとともに、摩擦部の先端部(他方の端部)側におけるクリップ表面からの肉厚に対し、摩擦部の後端部(一方の端部)側のクリップ表面からの肉厚を厚くしてあるが、段部や凹部などによって、前記摩擦部の一方の端部に対向する位置に対し、前記摩擦部の他方の端部に対向する位置までの距離が短くしてあってもよい。   Further, in this embodiment, for convenience, the rear end portion of the clip on which the friction body is mounted is inclined toward the axial center side of the thermochromic writing instrument toward the rear end of the clip, and the shaft of the thermochromic writing instrument is provided. While shortening the distance from the core to the clip surface, the clip surface on the rear end (one end) side of the friction part with respect to the thickness from the clip surface on the front end (other end) side of the friction part However, the distance from the position facing one end of the friction part to the position facing the other end of the friction part is short due to the stepped part or the recessed part. It may be.

本発明の熱変色性筆記具は、出没式筆記具やキャップ式筆記具等、熱変色性筆記具として広く利用可能である。   The thermochromic writing instrument of the present invention can be widely used as a thermochromic writing instrument such as an in / out writing instrument and a cap-type writing instrument.
