A ballpoint pen is provided in which the width of the drawing line can be changed, wherein responsiveness can be improved when distinguishing between drawing thin lines and thick lines. A ballpoint pen 1 provided at the pen tip side with a first writing part having a writing ball 25, wherein the ballpoint pen 1 is characterized by being provided with a writing part at the pen tip side with which it is possible to write a thicker line than the line written with the first writing part, only the first writing part being used when the writing weight is 1 g and the writing angle is 90, and the second writing part being used when the writing weight is 200 g, and the writing angle is 40-90.

A writing pen includes at least one processor, a fingerprint acquiring device, and an information generating device. The fingerprint acquiring device is arranged on a surface of the pen, the information generating device is arranged within the writing pen. Magnetic ink is in the writing pen. The fingerprint acquiring device takes a fingerprint when the user grips the writing pen, the processor acquires the fingerprint information and generates an electric signal reflecting the fingerprint information. The signal is transmitted to the information generating device, the information generating device imparts the fingerprint information to the magnetic ink, thus handwriting written by the writing pen with the magnetic ink records the fingerprint information of the user.

A ballpoint dot pen tattoo cartridge includes a ballpoint pen element comprising an ink reservoir housed within a tapered bottom barrel providing a first barrel aperture and flanged top surface. A second barrel aperture in cylindrical top of the barrel includes a diameter larger than the first aperture with an assembly to attach the barrel cylindrical top to a tattoo machine. A resilient element within the barrel is sized to receive the ballpoint pen element between the first barrel aperture flanged top surface and two equal sized tabs on the ballpoint pen providing exit and retraction of the ballpoint pen assembly for ink discharge from the cartridge barrel tapered bottom whereby a tattoo machine operator controls the driving actuation of the tattoo machine to the ballpoint pen tip for controlling inked markings of a material.

Embodiments of the invention are directed to a roller ball marking instrument for use with paint, a method for assembling the roller ball marking instrument, and a system for delivering paint. The body of the marking instrument includes a reservoir for storing paint. The body is coupled to a fibrous roller ball via a retaining ring. The roller balls sits within a partially-enclosed cavity in the center of the retaining ring. A least part of the roller ball protrudes through an opening in the retaining ring. Paint in the reservoir moves first through an opening at one end of the body and then through an open center of the retaining ring. The paint is transferred to the roller ball. The roller ball rotates freely within the cavity of the retaining ring and transfers the paint to a writing surface.

A cosmetic applicator includes a body which includes a tip part and an extension which has a threaded portion. A case has a rotary member threadedly connected to the threaded portion. A contact member is received in the case which has a contact portion located corresponding to the shoulder of the body. A liquid supply unit is axially received in the body and the case, and has a liquid tube, a duct and a guide tube. The liquid tube contacts the contact member. The duct is inserted in the liquid tube and has a passage. A sealing member is removably located at the duct to seal or open the passage. A clip is connected to a groove between the case and the body before first use. The clip is removed and the case is rotated to move the sealing member to allow cosmetic liquid to reach the tip part.

A writing instrument includes: a replacement ink cartridge including a bottomed cylindrical container that has an opened front end and a closed rear end and a plug fitted into an inner circumferential surface of an opening of the container; and a projection inserted into the opening of the container to press the plug rearward, thereby opening the plug of the ink cartridge, wherein the projection and the plug are fitted when the plug is press opened, and when the cartridge is replaced, the fitting between the projection and the plug is released and the plug is locked again in the opening of the container.

A ballpoint pen bends at the pen tip, that can be changed by the force applied when writing. Wobbling does not occur, and a stable writing feel can be obtained. The ballpoint pen makes it possible to clearly change the thickness of the drawn line by the force applied when writing, so that lines of different thickness can be written with a single writing tip using the angle of the ballpoint pen tip. The ballpoint pen includes: a writing ball; a holder for holding the writing ball; an ink supply section; a shaft body inside which the ink supply section is held; and a tip shaft, which is connected to the tip of the shaft body and from which the holder protrudes during writing. The tip shaft is formed by two-color molding in which a front half and a back half are interdigitated in a saw tooth form.
