Abstract
Description
そこで、本件出願人は筆記芯に加わる筆記圧を利用して、筆記芯を除々に一方向に回転させることができる回転駆動機構を備えたシャープペンシルについて先に提案しており、これは特許文献1および2などに開示されている。
そして、前記回転カムには、軸方向の上下両面に円環状に連続した鋸歯状のカム面がそれぞれ形成され、さらに前記第1および第2の固定カムは、円筒状に形成された第1と第2の固定カム形成部材に円環状に連続した鋸歯状のカム面がそれぞれ形成され、前記2つの固定カム形成部材が同軸状に位置決めして配置された構成が採用されている。
この構成によると、第1固定カムのカム面と前記位置決め機構との間の成形上のばらつき、第2固定カムのカム面と前記位置決め機構との間の成形上のばらつき、さらには前記した凹凸状の位置決め機構のクリアランスなどが相乗的に作用して、回転駆動機構におけるカム面の噛み合わせの精度を確保することが非常に難しい。
より好ましくは、前記ホルダー部材には、軸方向に弾性部材が成形され、前記弾性部材の長手方向の各一部に前記第1固定カムおよび第2固定カムが一体に成形された構成が採用される。
なお、この中継パイプ7の後端部は筆記圧を利用して筆記芯(替え芯)を回転させる後述する回転駆動機構に接続されている。
この透明リング15は、先軸に一体に成形された環状の鍔部1aによって位置決めされ、続いて前記グリップ部材14が同方向から先軸1を取り巻くようにして装着される。その後に、前記した口先部材2が先軸1の前端部に螺合されることで、前記透明リング15およびグリップ部材14が軸方向に抜け出ることなく、前記先軸1に取り付けられる。
これにより、後述する回転駆動機構によって中継パイプ7が回転駆動される様子を、透明リング15を介して確認することができる。
この回転駆動機構21には前記したとおり中継パイプ7の後端部が接続されており、この中継パイプ7は筆記動作に基づく筆記芯の僅かな後退および前進動作(クッション動作)を前記チャック5を介して受けて、回転駆動機構21に伝達させると共に、クッション動作によって生ずる前記回転駆動機構21による回転運動を、前記中継パイプ7を介して前記チャック5に伝達させるように作用する。
なお、前記回転駆動機構21は、その前端部において前記先軸1との間に介在された軸スプリング22によって後方に付勢されている。また回転駆動機構21の後端部は前記後軸18内の縮径により形成された段部18aに、前記軸スプリング22の付勢力により当接している。
なお、前記回転カム24、クッション部材25およびトルクキャンセラー26の内周面は、前記芯ケース3を通す空間部になされており、これにより回転駆動機構21は芯ケース3とは隔離されている。
そして、環状突起18bとノック棒31との間にはコイル状のノック棒スプリング32が配置され、このスプリング32によって、前記ノック棒31を後軸18の後端部側に向けて付勢するように構成されている。
なお、前記ノックカバー34に形成された円盤状突起部34aは、前記樹脂盛りシール35により飾りの機能を果たすと共に、シャープペンシルの転がり止めとしての機能も果たすものとなる。
そして、一対の弾性部材23bにおける円筒部23a側の基端部には、鋸歯状に形成された1つのカム面(以下、第1固定カムともいう。)23cが一体に樹脂成形されており、この第1固定カム23cのカムの頂部は、前記弾性部材23bの先端部側に向かって成形されている。
なお、この実施の形態においては、前記した第1固定カム23cは弾性部材23bの基端部以外に、さらに一対の第1固定カム23cが中央の円筒部23aの端面に形成されており、これにより第1固定カム23cは、周方向に等間隔(90度間隔)をもって4つ形成されている。
このリング部材23fを利用して、ゴム製のクッション部材25が装着されており、このクッション部材25を介して樹脂製のトルクキャンセラー26が取り付けられている。
この実施の形態においてはゴム製のクッション部材25は、図5(A)に現わされているように前記したリング部材23fとトルクキャンセラー26の間においてエラストマー等のゴム素材を用いて二色成形により一体化されている。なお、図5(A)に符号25bで示す部分が二色成形を行う際のゴム素材注入用のゲート位置を示している。
したがって、ホルダー部材23に回転カム24を組み付けるには、ホルダー部材23に形成された一対の弾性部材23b側から、回転カム24の回転軸24cをホルダー部材23の前記円筒部23a内に向かって押し込むことで、一対の弾性部材23bは互いに外側に押し広げられつつ回転軸24cが円筒部23a内に収容される。これにより図6~図8に示す回転駆動機構21を構成することができる。
したがって、筆記芯は自身が受ける回転運動と筆記による摩耗とにより、先端部が常に円錐形状になされる。それ故、書き進むにしたがって筆記芯が偏摩耗するのを防止させることができ、安定した線幅による筆記が可能となる。
この構成によれば、ホルダー部材23を樹脂成形するにあたって、一対の金型の割り面を図5(B)に示すa-a線に設定することで、各鋸歯状カムの垂直面(エッジ)を正確に合わせることができ、前記した回転カム24との噛み合わせの精度をより向上させることができる。

Claims (5)
- 筆記芯が受ける筆記圧に基づいて回転カムを回転駆動させる回転駆動機構が備えられ、前記回転カムの回転運動を利用するように構成したシャープペンシルであって、
前記回転駆動機構を構成する前記回転カムは、前記筆記芯が受ける筆記圧に基づいて軸方向に後退し、前記筆記圧の解除により軸方向に前進する動作がなされ、かつ前記回転カムの軸方向に直交する上下面にはそれぞれ円環状に連続した多数のカム面が形成され、
前記回転駆動機構には、さらに前記回転カムの上下のカム面を挟むように対峙して配置された第1固定カムおよび第2固定カムが具備されると共に、前記第1固定カムは前記回転カムの軸方向の後退動作により当該回転カムの上側の多数のカム面の一部に噛み合って、前記回転カムを一方向に回転駆動させる少数のカム面により構成され、前記第2固定カムは前記回転カムの軸方向の前進動作により当該回転カムの下側の多数のカム面の一部に噛み合って、前記回転カムを前記一方向に回転駆動させる少数のカム面により構成されていることを特徴とするシャープペンシル。 - 前記第1固定カムおよび第2固定カムは、ホルダー部材に一体成形されていることを特徴とする請求項1に記載されたシャープペンシル。
- 前記ホルダー部材には、軸方向に弾性部材が一体に成形され、前記弾性部材の長手方向の各一部に前記第1固定カムおよび第2固定カムが一体成形されていることを特徴とする請求項2に記載されたシャープペンシル。
- 前記第1固定カムおよび第2固定カムにおけるカムの頂点が、軸方向で一致するように形成されていることを特徴とする請求項1ないし請求項3のいずれか1項に記載されたシャープペンシル。
- 前記ホルダー部材には、前記回転カムを回転可能に支持する円筒部が形成されていることを特徴とする請求項2ないし請求項4のいずれか1項に記載されたシャープペンシル。
