Description

本発明は、押子をスライドさせる操作により筆記部を突出させるようにした筆記具に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a writing instrument in which a writing portion is made to protrude by sliding a pusher.

従来、この種の発明には、例えば特許文献1に記載されるように、軸筒と、軸筒内に軸方向へスライド可能に係合するとともに該軸筒の外周面から露出して周方向に複数並ぶ押子と、軸筒内で各押子に接続された筆記芯(リフィール)とを備え、複数の前記押子の何れかをスライドさせる操作により該押子に接続された筆記芯の前端の筆記部を軸筒前端から突出させるようにした筆記具がある。この従来技術によれば、前記押子には、軸筒から径方向外側へ突出して外部に露出した操作部が設けられる。 Conventionally, in this type of invention, as described in Patent Document 1, for example, a shaft cylinder is engaged with the shaft cylinder in a slidable manner in the axial direction, and is exposed from the outer circumferential surface of the shaft cylinder in the circumferential direction. It is equipped with a plurality of pushers arranged in a row, and a writing lead (refill) connected to each pusher within the barrel, and by an operation of sliding any of the plurality of pushers, the writing lead connected to the pusher is refilled. There is a writing instrument in which a writing part at the front end protrudes from the front end of the barrel. According to this prior art, the pusher is provided with an operating portion that protrudes radially outward from the shaft cylinder and is exposed to the outside.

特開2005-111876号公報Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2005-111876

ところで、上記従来技術では、押子の前記操作部が、軸筒の後端部よりも前側に位置する。このため、軸筒を握り親指で前記操作部を操作しようとすると、親指が軸筒の後端部に当接して操作し難い場合がある。
そこで、例えば、押子の前記操作部を軸筒の後端付近まで後方へ延設して、前記操作部に対する操作性を向上することが考えられる。しかしながら、このようにした場合、前記操作部と軸筒との間に、軸筒後方から視認される隙間が形成されて、意匠上の体裁を損ねてしまう。
By the way, in the above-mentioned prior art, the operation section of the pusher is located in front of the rear end of the shaft tube. Therefore, when gripping the barrel and trying to operate the operating section with the thumb, the thumb may come into contact with the rear end of the barrel, making it difficult to operate.
Therefore, for example, it is conceivable to extend the operating section of the pusher rearward to near the rear end of the shaft cylinder to improve the operability of the operating section. However, in this case, a gap is formed between the operating portion and the barrel, which is visible from the rear of the barrel, which impairs the aesthetic appearance.

本発明は、上記課題の少なくとも一部を解決するために、以下の構成を具備するものである。
後端側にクリップ部を有する軸筒と、前記軸筒の周壁に径方向へ挿通されるとともに前記周壁に沿って前後方向へスライド可能な押子と、軸筒内で前記押子に接続された筆記芯とを備え、前記押子を前進させる操作により前記筆記芯がその前端側の筆記部を前記軸筒の前端部から突出させるようにした筆記具において、前記押子が、軸筒内で前記筆記芯に接続された軸筒内進退部と軸筒外に露出した操作部とを有し、前記軸筒と前記操作部の間に、軸筒後方から視認可能な径方向の隙間が形成されるようにした筆記具であって、前記軸筒内進退部の後端側には、規制部が設けられ、前記軸筒の内部には、後退位置にある前記軸筒内進退部の前記規制部に対し後方側から近接又は接触するとともに、後方斜め径内方向へ向かう傾斜面が設けられ、前記押子に径方向外側向きの力が加わった際、前記規制部が前記傾斜面に接触することにより、前記押子の径方向外側への移動を規制することを特徴とする筆記具。
In order to solve at least part of the above problems, the present invention includes the following configuration.
a shaft cylinder having a clip portion on a rear end side; a pusher inserted into a peripheral wall of the shaft cylinder in a radial direction and slidable in a front-rear direction along the peripheral wall; and a pusher connected to the pusher within the shaft cylinder. In the writing instrument, the writing tool is provided with a writing lead which is arranged so that the writing part on the front end side of the writing lead protrudes from the front end of the barrel by an operation of advancing the pusher. It has a reciprocating part within the barrel connected to the writing lead and an operating part exposed outside the barrel, and a radial gap is formed between the barrel and the operating part that is visible from the rear of the barrel. The writing instrument is configured such that a regulating portion is provided on the rear end side of the in-barrel reciprocating portion, and the regulating portion of the in-barrel advancing and retracting portion in the retracted position is provided inside the barrel. An inclined surface is provided that approaches or contacts the part from the rear side and faces diagonally backward and radially inward, and when a force directed outward in the radial direction is applied to the pusher, the regulating part contacts the inclined surface. A writing instrument characterized in that the movement of the pusher radially outward is restricted by this .

本発明は、以上説明したように構成されているので、押子に対する操作性が向上する上、軸筒と押子の操作部との隙間が拡がるのを抑制することができる。 Since the present invention is configured as described above, the operability of the pusher is improved, and the gap between the shaft tube and the operating portion of the pusher can be prevented from widening.

被嵌合突起12g4は、略半楕円状の周縁側壁部12g2における短軸方向の一端側と他端側にそれぞれ設けられる(図8参照)。
各被嵌合突起12g4は、頭冠30の乗り越え嵌合突起32aを乗り越え嵌合可能な山形に形成される。
The fitting protrusions 12g4 are provided at one end and the other end in the short axis direction of the substantially semi-elliptical peripheral side wall 12g2 (see FIG. 8).
Each fitting protrusion 12g4 is formed in a chevron shape that can be fitted over the fitting protrusion 32a of the crown 30.

頭冠30は、凹状部12gの開口縁を塞ぐ後端板部31と、後端板部31の内面から凹状部12g側へ突出して周縁側壁部12g2及び突片部12g3の軸筒径方向内側に嵌り合う嵌合部32と、突片部12g3の軸筒径方向外側で切欠部12e1を塞ぐ閉塞片部33とを一体に有する(図5参照)。 The crown 30 includes a rear end plate portion 31 that closes the opening edge of the recessed portion 12g, and a rear end plate portion 31 that protrudes from the inner surface of the rear end plate portion 31 toward the recessed portion 12g side and is located inside the peripheral side wall portion 12g2 and the projecting piece portion 12g3 in the radial direction of the shaft cylinder. It integrally includes a fitting part 32 that fits into the projection part 12g3, and a closing piece part 33 that closes the notch part 12e1 on the outside in the radial direction of the shaft cylinder of the projecting piece part 12g3 (see FIG. 5).

嵌合部32は、周縁側壁部12g2及び突片部12g3の内側面に嵌り合う筒状に形成される(図5参照)。この嵌合部32の外側面には、周縁側壁部12g2の両側の被嵌合突起12g4に対し、軸筒前方へ乗り超えるようにして嵌り合う乗り越え嵌合突起32a(図8参照)が設けられる。 The fitting part 32 is formed into a cylindrical shape that fits into the inner surfaces of the peripheral side wall part 12g2 and the protrusion part 12g3 (see FIG. 5). The outer surface of the fitting portion 32 is provided with a fitting projection 32a (see FIG. 8) that fits over the fitting projections 12g4 on both sides of the peripheral side wall portion 12g2 so as to ride over the shaft cylinder forward. .

また、第一の押子40及び第二の押子50は、軸筒10後端側において、周方向に間隔をおいて複数設けられる。図示例によれば、第一の押子40は二つ設けられ、第二の押子50は単数設けられる。 Further, a plurality of first pushers 40 and second pushers 50 are provided at intervals in the circumferential direction on the rear end side of the shaft tube 10. According to the illustrated example, two first pushers 40 are provided, and one second pusher 50 is provided.

第一の押子40は、硬質合成樹脂材料からなる硬質部40aと、この硬質部40aよりも軟質な弾性樹脂材料からなる弾性部40bとを二色成形によって形成してなり、軸筒10内で筆記芯61に接続される軸筒内進退部41と、軸筒10外に露出する操作部42とを一体に具備している(図10及び図11参照)。 The first pusher 40 is formed by two-color molding of a hard part 40a made of a hard synthetic resin material and an elastic part 40b made of an elastic resin material softer than the hard part 40a. It integrally includes an in-barrel reciprocating part 41 connected to the writing lead 61 and an operating part 42 exposed outside the barrel 10 (see FIGS. 10 and 11).

軸筒内進退部41は、前後方向へわたる長尺棒状に形成され、後端側の当接部41e等を除く大部分が、硬質部40aにより形成される(図11参照)。
この軸筒内進退部41の前端側には、筆記芯61に対し後方側から圧入接続される筆記芯接続部41aと、コイルスプリング63に対し後方側から挿入されるコイル接続部41bとが設けられる。
The in-cylinder reciprocating portion 41 is formed in the shape of a long bar extending in the front-rear direction, and most of it except for the abutment portion 41e on the rear end side is formed by a hard portion 40a (see FIG. 11).
A writing lead connecting part 41a that is press-fitted and connected to the writing lead 61 from the rear side, and a coil connecting part 41b that is inserted to the coil spring 63 from the rear side are provided on the front end side of this in-cylinder reciprocating part 41. It will be done.

コイル接続部41bは、略円柱軸状に形成され、その外周面に、周方向において部分的に軸筒径方向外側へ突出する偏心突起41b1を有し、さらに、この偏心突起41b1よりも後側にコイルスプリング63の後端部を受けるコイル受け部41b2を有する(図10及び図11参照)。 The coil connecting portion 41b is formed into a substantially cylindrical shaft shape, and has an eccentric protrusion 41b1 on its outer circumferential surface that partially protrudes outward in the radial direction of the shaft cylinder in the circumferential direction. It has a coil receiving portion 41b2 for receiving the rear end portion of the coil spring 63 (see FIGS. 10 and 11).

偏心突起41b1は、コイルスプリング63の内周面に、周方向において部分的に圧接することで、コイルスプリング63の後端側を、第一の押子40の中心線に対し軸筒径方向外側へ偏心させる(図15及び図16(a)参照)。 The eccentric protrusion 41b1 partially presses against the inner circumferential surface of the coil spring 63 in the circumferential direction, thereby moving the rear end side of the coil spring 63 outward in the radial direction of the shaft cylinder with respect to the center line of the first pusher 40. (See FIGS. 15 and 16(a)).

コイル受け部41b2は、軸筒径方向の外側部分41b21が、同径方向の内側部分41b22よりも後方に位置する段状に形成され、この段状の面を、コイルスプリング63の後端部に当接させることで、コイルスプリング63の前側を軸筒径方向外側へ傾斜させる(図16(a)参照)。 The coil receiving portion 41b2 is formed in a step shape such that an outer portion 41b21 in the radial direction of the shaft cylinder is located rearward than an inner portion 41b22 in the same radial direction, and this stepped surface is connected to the rear end portion of the coil spring 63. By bringing them into contact, the front side of the coil spring 63 is inclined outward in the radial direction of the shaft cylinder (see FIG. 16(a)).

なお、コイル受け部41b2の他例としては、図16(b)に示すコイル受け部41b2’や、図16(c)に示すコイル受け部41b2”のように、少なくともその受け面の一部を、後方斜め径方向外側へ向かう傾斜面状に形成してもよい。 Other examples of the coil receiving part 41b2 include a coil receiving part 41b2' shown in FIG. 16(b) and a coil receiving part 41b2'' shown in FIG. , it may be formed in the shape of an inclined surface that faces obliquely rearward and outward in the radial direction.

詳細に説明すれば、前記他例のコイル受け部41b2’は、径方向の外側寄りに、軸筒径方向外側へ向かう部分的な傾斜面を有する(図16(b)参照)。
さらに、他の一例であるコイル受け部41b2”は、径方向の全域にわたって後方斜め軸筒径方向外側へ向かう傾斜面を有する(図16(c)参照)。
これらコイル受け部41b2’,41b”によれば、何れも、コイルスプリング63の前側を軸筒径方向外側へ傾斜させて、他のコイルスプリングに干渉するのを軽減することができる。
To explain in detail, the coil receiving portion 41b2' of the other example has a partial inclined surface toward the outer side in the radial direction of the shaft cylinder (see FIG. 16(b)).
Furthermore, the coil receiving portion 41b2'', which is another example, has an inclined surface extending outward in the rear oblique shaft cylinder radial direction over the entire radial area (see FIG. 16(c)).
According to these coil receiving portions 41b2' and 41b'', the front side of the coil spring 63 can be inclined outward in the radial direction of the shaft cylinder, thereby reducing interference with other coil springs.

また、軸筒内進退部41の後部側には、軸筒径方向内側へ突出する二つの係合突起41c,41dが、前後方向に間隔を置いて設けられる(図10及び図11参照)。
前側の係合突起41cは、先に他の押子が前進して掛止されている場合に、この押子の後側の係合突起に当接して、その掛止状態を解除する。
後側の係合突起41dは、当該第一の押子40が先に前進して掛止されており、その掛止状態を解除する場合、後から前進する押子の前側の係合突起に当接される。
Further, on the rear side of the in-cylinder reciprocating portion 41, two engaging protrusions 41c and 41d that protrude inward in the radial direction of the shaft cylinder are provided at intervals in the front-rear direction (see FIGS. 10 and 11).
When another pusher moves forward and is latched first, the front engagement protrusion 41c comes into contact with the rear engagement protrusion of this pusher to release the latching state.
The first pusher 40 moves forward first and is latched to the rear engagement protrusion 41d. When releasing the latching state, the rear engagement protrusion 41d is engaged with the front engagement protrusion of the pusher that advances later. be touched.

また、軸筒内進退部41の最後端部には、軸筒10内の被当接部12hに当接するように、当接部41eが後方向きに突設している(図10及び図12参照)。
この当接部41eは、操作部42を形成する弾性部40bによって形成される。すなわち、操作部42と当接部41eは、弾性部40bを構成する弾性材料により連続するように形成されている。
Furthermore, a contact portion 41e is provided at the rearmost end of the in-cylinder advancing/retreating portion 41 to protrude rearward so as to contact the abutted portion 12h in the shaft tube 10 (FIGS. 10 and 12). reference).
This contact portion 41e is formed by the elastic portion 40b that forms the operating portion 42. That is, the operating portion 42 and the contact portion 41e are formed continuously from an elastic material that constitutes the elastic portion 40b.

この当接部41eの突端面は、図12に示すように、被当接部12hを構成する面に対し傾斜する傾斜面状に形成される。
この構成によれば、第一の押子40を被当接部12hに当接させる際、傾斜面状の当接部41eが、徐々に被当接部12hに圧接され変形するため、その際の衝撃(当接音や振動等)を効果的に軽減することができる。
なお、図10中、符号41fは、ガイド孔12d内のガイド面(図示せず)の前端側で軸筒径方向内側へ凹んだ係止部(図示せず)に対し掛止される掛止突起である。
As shown in FIG. 12, the protruding end surface of the abutting portion 41e is formed into an inclined surface shape that is inclined with respect to the surface constituting the abutted portion 12h.
According to this configuration, when the first pusher 40 is brought into contact with the abutted part 12h, the inclined surface-shaped abutting part 41e is gradually pressed against the abutted part 12h and deformed. impact (contact noise, vibration, etc.) can be effectively reduced.
In addition, in FIG. 10, the reference numeral 41f is a latch that is latched to a locking part (not shown) that is recessed inward in the radial direction of the shaft cylinder at the front end side of the guide surface (not shown) in the guide hole 12d. It is a protrusion.

また、操作部42は、軸筒内進退部41の後端側から軸筒径方向外側へ突出し、ガイド孔12dに対し軸筒内側から挿通されて、軸筒外に露出する。この操作部42は、軸筒外に露出する部分が弾性部40bによって形成される(図10及び図11参照)。 Further, the operating portion 42 protrudes outward in the radial direction of the shaft cylinder from the rear end side of the intra-cylinder advancing/retreating portion 41, is inserted into the guide hole 12d from the inside of the shaft cylinder, and is exposed to the outside of the shaft cylinder. The portion of the operating portion 42 that is exposed outside the shaft cylinder is formed by an elastic portion 40b (see FIGS. 10 and 11).

弾性部40bは、軸筒内進退部41後端側の当接部41eまで連続しており、第一の押子40操作時の滑り止めとしての機能と、第一の押子40後退時の緩衝材としての機能とを併せ持つ。 The elastic portion 40b is continuous to the abutment portion 41e on the rear end side of the in-cylinder advance/retreat portion 41, and functions as an anti-slip when the first pusher 40 is operated and as a stopper when the first pusher 40 is retracted. It also functions as a cushioning material.

そして、上記構成の第一の押子40は、硬質部40aを軸筒10のガイド孔12d内面に摺接させて前後方向へスライドするとともに、この摺接箇所から弾性部40bを離隔している。
詳細に説明すれば、図2の横断面に示すように、硬質部40aは、ガイド孔12dの内面に対し近接又は摺接するように形成される。これに対し、弾性部40bは、硬質部40aから段状に幅を狭めて、ガイド孔12dの内面から離隔するように形成される。
この構成によれば、第一の押子40を前後方向へスライドさせる際に、弾性部40bが軸筒10に摺接するのを阻んで、硬質部40aのみをガイド孔12d内面に摺接させることができる。このため、第一の押子40のスライド動作性が良好である。
The first pusher 40 configured as described above slides in the front-rear direction with the hard part 40a in sliding contact with the inner surface of the guide hole 12d of the shaft tube 10, and the elastic part 40b is separated from this sliding contact point. .
More specifically, as shown in the cross section of FIG. 2, the hard portion 40a is formed so as to be close to or in sliding contact with the inner surface of the guide hole 12d. On the other hand, the elastic part 40b is formed so that the width is narrowed stepwise from the hard part 40a and is spaced apart from the inner surface of the guide hole 12d.
According to this configuration, when the first pusher 40 is slid in the front-rear direction, the elastic part 40b is prevented from slidingly contacting the shaft tube 10, and only the hard part 40a is allowed to come into sliding contact with the inner surface of the guide hole 12d. I can do it. Therefore, the sliding movement of the first pusher 40 is good.

また、第二の押子50は、硬質合成樹脂材料からなる硬質部50aと、この硬質部50aよりも軟質な弾性樹脂材料からなる弾性部50bとを二色成形によって形成してなり、軸筒10内で筆記芯62に接続される軸筒内進退部51と、軸筒10外に露出する操作部52とを一体に具備している(図10、図13及び図14参照)。
この第二の押子50は、操作部52の後端部を、他の二つの第一の押子40の操作部42よりも後方側に配置している(図1参照)。
The second pusher 50 is formed by two-color molding of a hard part 50a made of a hard synthetic resin material and an elastic part 50b made of an elastic resin material softer than the hard part 50a. It integrally includes an in-barrel reciprocating part 51 connected to the writing lead 62 within the barrel 10 and an operating part 52 exposed outside the barrel 10 (see FIGS. 10, 13, and 14).
The second pusher 50 has the rear end portion of the operating section 52 arranged on the rear side of the operating sections 42 of the other two first pushers 40 (see FIG. 1).

軸筒内進退部51は、前後方向へわたる長尺棒状に形成され、当接部51e等を除く大部分が、硬質部50aにより形成される。
この軸筒内進退部51は、第一の押子40の軸筒内進退部41と略同様にして、筆記芯62に対し後方側から圧入接続される筆記芯接続部51a、コイルスプリング64に対し後方側から挿入されるコイル接続部51b、コイル接続部51bの外周面から軸筒径方向外側へ部分的に突出する偏心突起51b1、偏心突起51b1よりも後側でコイルスプリング64の後端部を受けるコイル受け部51b2、他の押子と係合させるための係合突起51c及び係合突起51d等を有する。
The in-cylinder reciprocating portion 51 is formed in the shape of a long bar extending in the front-rear direction, and most of it except for the contact portion 51e and the like is formed by a hard portion 50a.
This cylinder-internal reciprocating part 51 is connected to a writing lead connecting part 51a and a coil spring 64, which are press-fitted and connected to the writing lead 62 from the rear side, in substantially the same way as the in-shaft cylinder reciprocating part 41 of the first pusher 40. On the other hand, the coil connecting portion 51b inserted from the rear side, the eccentric protrusion 51b1 partially protruding outward in the radial direction of the shaft cylinder from the outer peripheral surface of the coil connecting portion 51b, and the rear end of the coil spring 64 on the rear side of the eccentric protrusion 51b1. It has a coil receiving part 51b2 for receiving the coil, an engaging protrusion 51c and an engaging protrusion 51d for engaging with other pushers, and the like.

コイル受け部51b2は、先に説明したコイル受け部41b2と同様に、外側部分51b21と内側部分51b22を有する段状に形成される(図16(a)参照)。このコイル受け部51b2も、図16(b)(c)に示すコイル受け部51b2’,51b2”のように、傾斜面を有する態様に置換することが可能である。 The coil receiving portion 51b2 is formed in a stepped shape having an outer portion 51b21 and an inner portion 51b22, similar to the coil receiving portion 41b2 described above (see FIG. 16(a)). The coil receiving portion 51b2 can also be replaced with a form having an inclined surface, as in the coil receiving portions 51b2' and 51b2'' shown in FIGS. 16(b) and 16(c).

軸筒内進退部51の後端側には、前後方向に対し直交する幅方向の両側へ突出するように二つの規制部51g,51gが設けられる(図17参照)。これら二つの規制部51gは、第二の押子50が後退した状態で、軸筒内後端側の二つの傾斜面12f3にそれぞれ近接又は接触して、第二の押子50の径方向外側への移動を規制する。 Two restricting portions 51g, 51g are provided on the rear end side of the in-cylinder advancing/retracting portion 51 so as to protrude to both sides in the width direction orthogonal to the front-rear direction (see FIG. 17). When the second pusher 50 is retracted, these two regulating portions 51g are close to or in contact with the two inclined surfaces 12f3 on the rear end side of the shaft cylinder, and are arranged on the radially outer side of the second pusher 50. restrict movement to.

さらに、軸筒内進退部51の後端側には、弾性部50bからなる当接部51eが後方向きに突設している。この当接部51eは、第二の押子50が後退した際に、軸筒10内の被当接部12hに当接する。この当接部51eを形成する弾性材料は、操作部52に連続している。 Further, on the rear end side of the in-cylinder reciprocating portion 51, a contact portion 51e consisting of an elastic portion 50b is provided to protrude rearward. This abutting portion 51e abuts against the abutted portion 12h inside the shaft tube 10 when the second pusher 50 retreats. The elastic material forming this contact portion 51e is continuous with the operating portion 52.

すなわち、この当接部51eは、硬質部50aの中を通って操作部52に連続しており、弾性部50bによって操作部52と一体に形成される(図10及び図13参照)。したがって、弾性部50bは、第二の押子50操作時の滑り止めとしての機能と、第二の押子50後退時の緩衝材としての機能とを併せ持つ。 That is, this contact portion 51e passes through the hard portion 50a and continues to the operating portion 52, and is formed integrally with the operating portion 52 by the elastic portion 50b (see FIGS. 10 and 13). Therefore, the elastic portion 50b has both the function of preventing slipping when the second pusher 50 is operated and the function of a cushioning material when the second pusher 50 is retreated.

この当接部51eの突端面は、図14に示すように、被当接部12hを構成する面に対し傾斜する傾斜面状に形成される。
この構成によれば、第二の押子50を後退させた際、傾斜面状の当接部51eが、徐々に被当接部12hに圧接され変形するため、その際の衝撃(当接音及び振動等)を効果的に軽減することができる。
なお、図中、符号51fは、ガイド孔12e内のガイド面12f1の前端側で軸筒径方向内側へ凹んだ係止部12f2に対し掛止される掛止突起である。
As shown in FIG. 14, the protruding end surface of the abutting portion 51e is formed in the shape of an inclined surface that is inclined with respect to the surface constituting the abutted portion 12h.
According to this configuration, when the second pusher 50 is retreated, the inclined surface-shaped abutment part 51e is gradually pressed against the abutted part 12h and deformed, so that the impact (abutment noise) and vibrations) can be effectively reduced.
In addition, in the figure, the reference numeral 51f is a locking protrusion that is locked to a locking portion 12f2 that is recessed inward in the radial direction of the shaft cylinder at the front end side of the guide surface 12f1 in the guide hole 12e.

また、操作部52は、軸筒内進退部51の後端側から軸筒径方向外側へ突出して軸筒外に露出している。
この操作部52は、軸筒外に露出する部分が弾性部50bによって形成される。この弾性部50bは、軸筒内進退部51後端側の当接部51eまで連続している(図13参照)。
Further, the operating portion 52 protrudes outward in the radial direction of the shaft cylinder from the rear end side of the intra-cylinder advancing/retreating portion 51 and is exposed to the outside of the shaft cylinder.
A portion of the operating portion 52 that is exposed outside the shaft cylinder is formed by an elastic portion 50b. The elastic portion 50b continues to the abutting portion 51e on the rear end side of the in-cylinder reciprocating portion 51 (see FIG. 13).

そして、第二の押子50の操作部52は、他の二つの第一の押子40の操作部42とは異なる形状に形成される(図10参照)。
詳細に説明すれば、操作部52は、軸筒周方向及び軸筒軸方向の寸法が、操作部42よりも大きい。
さらに、操作部52は、軸筒10外周面から突出する寸法が、操作部42よりも大きい(図2参照)。
The operating section 52 of the second pusher 50 is formed in a different shape from the operating sections 42 of the other two first pushers 40 (see FIG. 10).
To explain in detail, the operating portion 52 has larger dimensions in the circumferential direction of the shaft cylinder and in the axial direction of the shaft cylinder than the operating portion 42 .
Furthermore, the operating portion 52 has a larger dimension in which it protrudes from the outer circumferential surface of the shaft tube 10 than the operating portion 42 (see FIG. 2).

この操作部52は、後方へ延設され、その後端部を、軸筒10の後端部と略面一に配置している。
ここで、前記「略面一」には、操作部52の後端部が、製造上の誤差や寸法公差の範囲内で、軸筒10の後端部よりも若干前側や後側に位置する場合を含む。
The operating portion 52 extends rearward, and its rear end is disposed substantially flush with the rear end of the shaft tube 10 .
Here, the above-mentioned "substantially flush" means that the rear end of the operating section 52 is located slightly forward or rearward than the rear end of the shaft cylinder 10 within the range of manufacturing errors and dimensional tolerances. Including cases.

この操作部52は、当該筆記具Aの後端側の横断面略楕円状の輪郭を構成している。
すなわち、筆記具Aの後端側は、図2及び図3に示すように横断面略楕円状に構成される。そして、この楕円における長軸の一端側に操作部52が配設され、他端側にはクリップ部12bが配設される。
The operating portion 52 has a substantially elliptical profile in cross section on the rear end side of the writing instrument A.
That is, the rear end side of the writing instrument A is configured to have a substantially elliptical cross section as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. The operating section 52 is disposed at one end of the long axis of this ellipse, and the clip section 12b is disposed at the other end.

軸筒10内において、上記構成の第一の押子40と第二の押子50には、それぞれ、筆記芯61と筆記芯62が接続される。
これら筆記芯61,62は、インク収容管の前端側に筆記部であるボールペンチップを接続したボールペン用リフィールであり、例えば、異なる色のインクが充填される。

<作用効果>
次に、上記構成の筆記具Aについて、その特徴的な作用効果を説明する。
例えば、使用者等が指で第二の押子50を前方へ押して前進させると、前進した第二の押子50は軸筒10内の係止部12f2に掛止され、筆記芯62がその筆記部を軸筒10前端から突出した状態に維持される。
この後、何れかの第一の押子40を前進させると、この第一の押子40の係合突起41cが第二の押子50の係合突起51dに当接して、第二の押子50が掛止状態から解除されて後退し、前進した第一の押子40が、軸筒10内の係止部に掛止されて、筆記芯61前端の筆記部が軸筒10前端開口から突出した状態に維持される。
<Effect>
Next, the characteristic functions and effects of the writing instrument A having the above configuration will be explained.
For example, when a user or the like pushes the second pusher 50 forward with a finger to move it forward, the second pusher 50 that has moved forward is latched to the locking portion 12f2 in the barrel 10, and the writing lead 62 is attached to the second pusher 50. The writing part is maintained in a state protruding from the front end of the barrel 10.
After that, when any of the first pushers 40 is moved forward, the engagement protrusion 41c of the first pusher 40 comes into contact with the engagement protrusion 51d of the second pusher 50, and the second pusher 40 is moved forward. The pusher 50 is released from the latching state and retreats, and the first pusher 40 that has moved forward is latched to the locking part in the barrel 10, so that the writing part at the front end of the writing lead 61 is brought into contact with the front end opening of the barrel 10. maintained in a prominent position.
