Abstract

The invention relates to a writing utensil, especially a ball-point pen, comprising a shaft and a writing cartridge. The invention is characterized in that the shaft is configured as an inflatable hollow body (1), preferably made of a plastic film, whereby the shaft body contains an inflation valve (2), and the writing cartridge (4) is stored in a pocket (3) on the outer side of said shaft body in such a manner that it can be exchanged. In addition, the writing cartridge terminates before the mid-length of the shaft body and protrudes from one end of the shaft body.

Description

Schreibgerät Writing instrument
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Schreibgerät, insbesondere einen Kugelschreiber, mit einem Schaft und einer Sehreibmine.The invention relates to a writing instrument, in particular a ballpoint pen, with a shaft and a visual refill.
Schreibgeräte dieser Art sind in unzähligen Ausführungen bekannt, haben aber zumeist den Nachteil, daß sie sperrig sind. Die Erfindung zielt darauf ab, diesen Mangel zu vermeiden und ein Schreibgerät zu schaffen, das im unbenutzten Zustand auf etwa die Hälfte seiner Größe verkleinert werden kann. Das erfindungsgemäße Schreibgerät zeichnet sich dadurch aus, daß der Schaft als aufblasbarer Hohlkörper vorzugsweise aus Kunststofffolie ausgebildet ist, wobei der Schaftkörper ein Aufblasventil enthält und die Schreibmine an der Außenseite dieses Schaftkörpers in einer Tasche austauschbar gelagert ist, vor der halben Länge des Schaftkörpers endet und an einem Ende des Schaftkörpers von diesem vorragt.Writing devices of this type are known in countless designs, but mostly have the disadvantage that they are bulky. The invention aims to avoid this deficiency and to create a writing instrument that can be reduced to about half its size when not in use. The writing instrument according to the invention is characterized in that the shaft is preferably made of plastic film as an inflatable hollow body, the shaft body containing an inflation valve and the writing lead on the outside of this shaft body being exchangeably mounted in a pocket, ending in front of half the length of the shaft body and on protrudes from one end of the shaft body.
Vorzugsweise ist an dem der Schreibminenspitze abgekehrten Schaftkörperende, eine Tasche aus einer Kunststoffolie befestigt, welche im zusammengelegten Zustand des Schreibgerätes eine Abdeckkappe zur Aufnahme des anderen Geräteendes und zum Zusammenhalten der Enden bildet.Preferably, a pocket made of a plastic film is fastened to the end of the shaft body facing away from the tip of the pencil, which, when the writing instrument is folded, forms a cover cap for receiving the other end of the instrument and for holding the ends together.
Durch diese Konstruktion kann das Schreibgerät, falls es auf kleinem Raum verstaut werden soll, nach dem Ablassen der Luft über das Aufblasventil auf etwa die Hälfte seiner ursprünglichen Größe zusammengefaltet werden, so daß es leicht eingesteckt werden kann und gegen Verschmutzung geschützt ist.With this construction, the writing instrument, if it is to be stowed in a small space, can be folded up to about half its original size after the air has been deflated, so that it can be easily inserted and is protected against contamination.
Nach einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung hat der Schaftkörper im wesentlichen ovale Form mit zulaufenden Enden. Der Schaftkörper kann erfindungsgemäß aus zwei PVC-Folien gebildet sein, die an ihren Längsrändern verschweißt sind.According to a further feature of the invention, the shaft body has an essentially oval shape with tapered ends. According to the invention, the shaft body can be formed from two PVC films which are welded at their longitudinal edges.
Weitere Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung eines Ausführungsbeispieles unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnungen, in denen Fig. 1 eine Draufsicht, Fig. 2 eine Untersicht, Fig. 3 eine Seitenansicht im aufgeblasenen Zustand des erfindungsgemäßen Schreibgerätes und die Fig. 4 bis 6 entsprechende Ansichten des zusammengefalteten Schreibgerätes zeigen.Further features and advantages of the invention result from the following description of an exemplary embodiment with reference to the drawings, in which FIG. 1 shows a top view, FIG. 2 shows a bottom view, FIG. 3 shows a side view in the inflated state of the writing instrument according to the invention, and FIG. 4 to 6 show corresponding views of the folded writing instrument.
Gemäß den Fig. 1 bis 3 hat das Schreibgerät einen im wesentlichen ovalen hohlen Schaftkörper 1, der aus zwei miteinander an ihren Längsrändern 1' verschweißten PVC-Folien gebildet und in einer örpprhälfte mit einem Aufblas-Rückschlagventil 2 ausgestattet ist. In der anderen Körperhälfte ist an der Körperaußenseite eine langgestreckte Tasche 3 zur Aufnahme einer Schreibmine 4 vorgesehen, die mit ihrer' Spitze 4' aus dem zulaufenden Ende des Schaftkörpers 1 vorragt. Die Schreibfunktion des Gerätes wird im aufgeblasenen Zustand erreicht, wobei die Schreibmine 4 durch den Luftdruck in ihrer Lage stabilisiert wird. Die Tasche 3 ist an ihrem hinteren Ende verschlossen, so daß die Mine nicht nach hinten rutschen kann. Das aufgeblasene Schreibgerät paßt sich der Hand ergonomisch an.According to FIGS. 1 to 3, the writing instrument has an essentially oval hollow shaft body 1, which is formed from two PVC foils welded to one another at their longitudinal edges 1 'and is equipped in one half with an inflation check valve 2. In the other half of the body, an elongated pocket 3 is provided on the outside of the body for receiving a writing lead 4, which projects with its ' tip 4' from the tapering end of the shaft body 1. The writing function of the device is achieved in the inflated state, the writing lead 4 being stabilized in its position by the air pressure. The bag 3 is closed at its rear end so that the mine cannot slide backwards. The inflated writing instrument adapts ergonomically to the hand.
Am hinteren Schaftkörperende ist gemäß den Fig. 2 und 3 eine Tasche aus Kunststoffolie aufgeschweißt, welche eine Abdeckkappe 5 bildet, in welche das Geräteende mit der Minenspitze im gefalteten Zustand des Schreibgerätes einsteckbar ist, wodurch das Gerät im zusammengefalteten Zustand gehalten und die Minenspitze vor Verschmutzung geschützt wird. Die Schreibmine 4 kann im Rahmen der Erfindung eine Kugelschreiber- oder Bleistiftmine sein, die auch biegsam sein kann. Es versteht sich, daß das erläuterte Ausführungsbeispiel im Rahmen des allgemeinen Erfindungsgedankens verschiedentlich abgewandelt werden kann, insbesondere hinsichtlich der äußeren Form des Geräteschaftes, der Anordnung des Aufblasventiles usw. Der Geräteschaft kann z.B. auch rechteckige Gestalt haben. 2 and 3, a bag made of plastic film is welded onto the rear end of the shaft body, which forms a cover cap 5, into which the end of the device can be inserted with the tip of the pen in the folded state of the writing instrument, thereby keeping the device in the folded state and preventing the tip from becoming dirty is protected. In the context of the invention, the writing lead 4 can be a ballpoint pen or pencil lead, which can also be flexible. It goes without saying that the exemplary embodiment explained can be modified in various ways within the scope of the general inventive concept, in particular with regard to the outer shape of the device shaft, the arrangement of the inflation valve, etc. The device shaft can, for example, also have a rectangular shape.
