TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] This invention relates to a writing tool such as a ball-point pen or a mechanical
pencil or a pen case or a scale or other stationaries, and more particularly, a general
stationary and the like which is made of transparent synthetic resin material.
BACKGROUND ART
[0002] In recent years, there have been proposed various kinds of stationaries in which
a transparency is intensified by molding a cylinder barrel, a tip end, a cap and a
clip or the like of the writing tool such as a ball-point pen or a mechanical pencil
with transparent synthetic resin material. That is, the stationary of which quality
applied as a commodity by applying an ornamental effect and aesthetic feeling found
in a transparent member is improved has been proposed and provided.
[0003] In this field, the surfaces of a cylinder barrel, a cap and a clip of the writing
tool such as a ball-point pen or a mechanical pencil or the like are already printed
with a name of the product, a manufacturing date, a lot No. and a company name or
the like while being displayed. However, the portion having the displayed part printed
thereon is transparent to cause the inner structure of the stationary to be seen from
outside, resulting in that the displayed part is made vague, is not clearly seen and
it is hardly seen from outside. In addition, the surface having the printed display
is a mirror surface, so that there have been left some problems that a poor coating
of printing ink against the surface may occur and it is easily peeled off.
[0004] Thus, it is an object of the present invention to provide a stationary made of transparent
synthetic resin material in which a display may clearly appear.
[0005] It is another object of the present invention to prevent a printing ink from being
peeled off.
DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
[0006] The stationary of the present invention is constructed such that a part of the main
body made of transparent synthetic resin material is applied with a pear-skin work
and the portion is provided with a display printing part.
[0007] In addition, the aforesaid main body is a clip of the writing tool and the surface
of the clip is provided with a display printing part.
[0008] In addition, the aforesaid main body is a cap of the writing tool and the surface
of the cap is provided with a display printing part.
[0009] Further, the aforesaid display printing part formed with pear-skin is arranged at
its part in concurrent with the molding of the main body.
[0010] According to these constructions, printing ink is printed while it is being entered
into the concave part of the display printing part comprised of pear-skin, the printed
display is securely coated at the display printing part while it is not peeled off.
Then, the display printing part appears in an opaque or a non-transparent state by
the corrugated pear-skin pattern, thus the display printed appears clearly or in a
floating-up manner, resulting in that the display may easily be seen.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0011] Fig. 1A is a front elevational view of a stationary of the present invention in which
an example of a mechanical pencil is shown.
[0012] Fig. 1B is an enlarged sectional view taken along a line B-B of Fig. 1A.
[0013] Fig. 2 is a side elevational view of the stationary of the present invention in which
an example of a ball-point pen is shown.
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
[0014] Referring now to the drawings, the preferred embodiments of the present invention
will be described in order to describe the present invention more minutely.
[0015] Fig. 1A shows an example of a stationary (a mechanical pencil), wherein a cylinder
barrel 1, a tip 2, a clip 3 and a knock cap 4 are made of transparent synthetic resin
material, its transparency is intensified so as to apply an ornamental effect as well
as an aesthetic feeling to the stationary. Then, the surface of the clip 3 is applied
with a pear-skin work and the part is provided with a display printing part 5 having
irregular corrugated pattern.
[0016] The display printing part 5 is constructed to have such a sufficient area as one
in which a display 6 for a product name, a manufacturing date, a lot No. and a company
name or the like is printed at the surface of the clip 3 in concurrent with a molding
of the cylinder barrel 1 having the clip 3 integrally formed with it, and the printing
ink is securely coated at the display printing part 5 while being entered into a concave
part of irregular corrugated pattern.
[0017] Thus, since the printing ink is printed at the display printing part 5 while being
entered into the concave part of the display printing part 5 comprised of corrugated
pattern, the display part 6 is strictly coated at the display printing part 5 while
the display 6 is not peeled off. Then, the display printing part 5 appears as an opaque
or a non-transparent state through the corrugated pattern, resulting in that the display
part 6 appears clearly or in a floating-up manner and this is easily seen.
[0018] In the aforesaid preferred embodiment of the present invention, the form in which
the surface of the clip 3 is provided with the display printing part 5 of pear-skin
has been described in detail. However, the cylinder barrel 1, the tip 2 and a part
of the surface of the knock cap 4 are similarly provided with the pear-skin. In addition,
as the stationary, the example of the mechanical pencil has been described in detail.
However, this may be similarly applied to a ball-point pen and so the present invention
aims at processing of a pen case, a scale or other well-known many stationaries made
of transparent synthetic resin material as well.
[0019] Fig. 2 shows another preferred embodiment of the stationary (a ball-point pen), wherein
the preferred embodiment is constructed such that the surface of the cap 8 removably
fitted to the extreme end of the cylinder barrel 7 is provided with the display printing
part 5 comprised of corrugated pattern in the same manner as that of the preferred
embodiment described in detail, and the ink is securely coated under a state in which
the display part 6 may not be peeled off.
[0020] Thus, according to the stationary of the present invention constructed as described
above, printing ink is printed while it is being entered into the concave part of
the display printing part 5 comprised of corrugated pattern applied to either the
clip surface 3 or the cap surface 8 of the stationary. Thus, the printed display is
securely coated at the display printing part 5 of the clip surface 3 or the cap surface
8 while it is not peeled off. Then, the display printing part 5 appears in an opaque
or a non-transparent state by the corrugated pattern. Thus, the display printed at
the clip surface 3 or the cap surface 5 appears clearly or in a floating-up manner,
resulting in that the display may easily be seen.
[0021] Further, according to the stationary of the present invention, since the display
printing part 5 comprised of a pear-skin is applied to a part of the main body, to
the surface of the clip 3, for example, in concurrent with a molding of the cylinder
barrel 1 integrally provided with the clip 3 of the stationary, it can be arranged
in less-expensive manner as compared with that of working method for applying the
display printing part comprised of a pear-skin by a post-processing after the cylinder
barrel 1 is formed and further it can be positively and accurately arranged at a predetermined
location. Thus, an effect of substantial practical arrangement can be expected in
this type of stationary mainly applied for its mass production.
INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY
[0022] As described above, according to the stationary of the present invention made of
transparent synthetic resin material, its transparency is intensified, a coating effect
of the ink preventing a peeling-off of the printing ink can be expected without reducing
an ornamental effect and aesthetic feeling found in the transparent member and further
the display appears clearly to cause its easiness in seeing to be well expected. In
addition, the present invention can be manufactured and provided in less-expensive
cost. Accordingly, the present invention is applicably as the method for printing
with a name of the product, a manufacturing date, a lot No. and a company name or
the like on a writing tool such as a ball-point pen or a mechanical pencil or a pen
case or a scale or other stationaries, and more particularly, a general stationary
and the like which is made of transparent synthetic resin material.
