Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a writing instrument and a cosmetic instrument, and more particularly to preventing the free end of the clip portion from opening in the state of the use mode so that it cannot be inserted into a pocket or the like, and the non-use mode. In this state, the present invention relates to a writing implement and a makeup implement in which the writing member or the makeup member housed in the barrel is not easily exposed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, a writing instrument in which a writing member (for example, a refill of a water-based or oil-based ballpoint pen, a lead-out portion of a mechanical pencil, etc.) is housed in a shaft cylinder is provided with a knock provided in a rearward direction of the shaft cylinder. By knocking the member, it is possible to set the writing portion of the writing member in the non-use mode state in which the writing portion is retracted into the barrel, to the use mode state in which the writing portion is projected from the tip end side of the barrel.

Similarly, in a makeup tool in which a cosmetic member (for example, lipstick, eye shadow, eyeliner, etc.) is housed in the barrel, by knocking a knock member provided in a state projecting to the rear of the barrel. The application section of the decorative member can be set in the non-use mode state in which the application section is retracted into the barrel, and in the use mode state in which the application section is projected from the tip side of the barrel.

Some of these writing instruments and cosmetics are provided with a clip portion on the outer peripheral surface of the shaft cylinder, and can be carried by being inserted into a pocket of clothes or the like in a non-use mode. ing. At this time, a part such as a pocket is sandwiched between the shaft tube and the clip portion.

As a structure for holding the knock member in the use mode position, there is one disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 6-33029. This is because a hooking hole (stopper) is provided in a part of the finger hooking pipe (knock member), and a push button (regulating member) is provided in a movable state in a direction intersecting the moving direction of the finger hooking pipe. When the hanging tube comes to the use mode position, the rectangular engaging portion of the push button enters into the engaging hole to hold the finger hanging tube.

[0006]

However, in the conventional writing implements and makeup implements, the free end portion of the clip portion can be opened in the use mode, so that the writing member or the makeup member is exposed from the barrel. It can be inserted into a pocket or the like as it is, and this will stain clothes such as the pocket with the exposed writing member, especially when the writing member or the decorative member uses water-based ink or water-based cosmetics. Has a problem that it is easy to stain clothes and the like.

Further, in Japanese Patent Publication No. 6-33029, since the movement of the knock member is not regulated in the non-use mode, if something hits the knock member in a pocket or the like, The knock member may be knocked to put the writing member or the decorative member in the use mode. Even in such a case, there is a problem that the clothes are soiled by the exposed writing member or the like.

Therefore, in the present invention, the free end portion of the clip portion is prevented from opening in the use mode state,
An object of the present invention is to prevent the clothes from being soiled by disabling the knocking operation of the knock member in the non-use mode while preventing the clothes from being inserted into a pocket or the like in the use mode.

[0009]

A writing instrument and a makeup tool according to the present invention include a barrel having a clip portion on its outer peripheral surface and a non-use mode position in which a writing member or a makeup member is housed in the barrel by a knocking operation. To at least a knock member that is moved from the barrel to the use mode position exposed from the barrel and is held at the moving position, the outer peripheral surface of the barrel corresponding to the free end side portion of the clip portion. An opening was provided, and a locking part that moved the opening while protruding from the outer peripheral surface of the shaft cylinder was provided in a part of the knock member, and the knock member moved to the use mode position at the free end part of the clip part. A locked portion is provided to prevent the free end portion from opening at times by engaging with the locking portion.

Further, by a knocking operation, a knock member that moves from a non-use mode position where the writing member or the decorative member is housed in the barrel to a use mode position where the writing member is exposed from the barrel, and a moving direction of the knock member. A stopper that is movable in the intersecting direction and that includes at least a position restricting member for individually holding a non-use mode position and a use mode position, and a stopper that can be engaged with the position restricting member at a part of the knock member. When the position restricting member is in the normal position, the position restricting member is locked to prevent the knock member from newly moving in the non-use mode position or the use mode position, and moves the position restricting member in the intersecting direction. In this case, the knock member can be moved in such a manner that the knock member can be moved.

[0011]

As described above, when the knock member reaches the use mode position, the locking portion of the knock member engages with the locked portion of the clip portion, so that the free end portion of the clip portion cannot be opened. . As a result, the clip portion cannot be inserted into a pocket of clothes or the like when in the use mode state, and the user is made aware that the writing instrument is in the use mode state. .

Further, in the case where a stopper is provided in a part of the knock member, since the position regulating member regulates the movement of the knock member from the non-use mode position, the knock member is knocked in the non-use mode state. Even if the writing member or the like is inoperable and the knock member is inadvertently pressed with the writing instrument or the like inserted in the pocket or the like, the writing member or the like is not inadvertently exposed in the use mode.
