Rotating-operation type of writing tool

摘要

When the rear axial cylinder (3) is rotated, the cam cylinder (17) is also rotated, thereby the cam protrusion (18a) moves forward by means of the functions of the cam groove (17a) and the slit (18b), so that the slider (18) moves forward to cause the writing body (14) to move forward against a biasing force by the biasing member (15). The cam cylinder (17) and the rear axial cylinder (3) are fixed via the adjustment mechanism of rotational positions (17n).

主权项

1. A rotating-operation type of writing tool in which a tip portion of the writing tool is caused to protrude from a front portion of a front axial cylinder by a rotating operation of a rear axial cylinder with respect to the front axial cylinder, comprising:
a front axial cylinder and a rear axial cylinder which are separable from each other; a rear-axial-cylinder inner cylinder provided in the rear axial cylinder and fixed to a rear portion of the front axial cylinder, the rear-axial-cylinder inner cylinder having a slit in a longitudinal direction thereof; a cam cylinder provided in the rear-axial-cylinder inner cylinder and fixed to the rear axial cylinder, the cam cylinder having a spiral cam groove; a cam protrusion loosely fitted into the cam groove of the cam cylinder and the slit of the rear-axial-cylinder inner cylinder; a slider provided in the cam cylinder, the slider being movable in the cam cylinder integrally with the cam protrusion; and a writing body provided in the front axial cylinder, the writing body being biased rearward by a biasing member relative to the front axial cylinder; wherein the slider is also biased rearward via the writing body by the biasing member; when the rear axial cylinder is rotated, the cam cylinder is rotated, thereby the cam protrusion moves forward by means of the cam groove and the slit, so that the slider moves forward to cause the writing body to move forward against a biasing force by the biasing member, and the cam cylinder and the rear axial cylinder are fixed via an adjustment mechanism of rotational positions.
