A stylus including a pen rod, a first pen barrel, a second pen barrel, a driving element, and an actuating element is provided. The first pen barrel has a first end portion, a second end portion, and a first engagement slot located at the second end portion. The first end portion is fixed to the pen rod. The second pen barrel is sleeved on the second end portion. The driving element is disposed in the first pen barrel and includes an engagement portion. The engagement portion is engaged with the first engagement slot. The actuating element passes through the second pen barrel and the first pen barrel and is coupled to the driving element. The actuating element is configured to move toward a first direction after receiving a force to cause the driving element to be elastically deformed to separate the engagement portion from the first engagement slot.

The present utility model refers to a page marker device of the type that can be used between the pages of a book or publication, being that the marker incorporates a writing graphite. The device comprises a strip of graphite partially embedded in the elongate body. The recessed portion of the graphite strip has a length greater than the length of the non-embedded part of the graphite strip, and the elongate thin body has a flat part with a surface suitable for printing.

A writing instrument includes a first barrel and a second barrel that are able to rotate relative to each other about the axial direction, and presenting a first distal end and a second distal end, a writing tip being arranged at the first distal end while a pad for a capacitive screen is arranged at the second distal end, the writing tip and/or the pad for a capacitive screen being retractable by causing the first barrel to rotate relative to the second barrel, and where a barrel among the first barrel and the second barrel includes a tongue extending in the circumferential direction, the tongue being configured to establish electrical contact with the other barrel among the first barrel and the second barrel.

A writing instrument according to an embodiment of the invention including, a chuck that chucks a writing lead, wherein the chuck includes a first chuck pawl which comes into point contact or line contact with the writing lead to press the writing lead so as to apply first contact stress to the writing lead; and a second chuck pawl which presses the writing lead so as to apply, to the writing lead, second contact stress that is lower than the first contact stress, and the first contact stress is configured such that, when a prescribed impact is applied to the writing lead, a contact portion of the writing lead subjected to the first contact stress fractures and absorbs the prescribed impact.

A writing, drawing, marking and/or painting utensil or cosmetics implement or input device for contact-sensitive surfaces, wherein the utensil/implement/device includes at least one shank element made of plastics material or a plastics-containing wood substitute. The at least one shank element has a surface, or in that the at least one shank element has a surface which is sheathed in a material layer having a cover surface. The surface of the shank element or the cover surface of the material layer is in the form of a haptic and/or non-slip layer. The haptic and/or non-slip layer has a structure formed in one piece with the shank element and/or the material layer. The structure is formed by corrugation.

The disclosed technology includes methods and systems for facilitating handwriting for individuals who require assistance with their fine motor skills and pinch strength due to various conditions or injury. The methods and systems include writing instruments that may be used in order of succession based on improved or worsened fine motor skills. In one implementation, the method includes measuring a first writing capability of a user, selecting a first writing instrument with a barrel of a predetermined circumference and a predetermined weight selected based on the first writing capability of the user, using the selected first writing instrument for a first phase, measuring a second writing capability, detecting a first change between the first writing capability and the second writing capability, determining that the first phase is completed based on the detected first change, and selecting a second writing instrument responsive to determining the first phase is completed.

This invention relates to the process for obtaining sheets made from seaweed that, when wrapped around a coal mine, wax mine or ink loads, give rise to the cylindrical and elongated cover of pencil or pen made based on algae, salt, bentonite and water, with a final layer of cotton thread optionally, tinctured with natural plant elements and having seeds at its rear end. The process for the production of films made from algae by heat treatment with the addition of salt and bentonite for making covers of pencil or pen comprises the following steps: i) boiling seaweed containing collagen for gelatinization together with salt and bentonite; ii) poring the gelatinized algae into the bowl and dip a graphite for writing; iii) subjecting to temperature for drying the algae and obtaining sheets; iv) cutting the sheets, according to the size of graphite for writing, leaving a space at the rear end to place the seeds; and iv) wrapping the graphite for writing with pieces of wet sheets to obtain a particular shape.

In the present invention, a toy block for an assembly toy has a first flat surface and a second flat surface at both ends. Formed on the first flat surface are male parts that project vertically and female parts that are vertically indented. Formed on the second flat surface are a male part that vertically projects, and female parts that are vertically indented. When two toy blocks are linked together, the male parts of one block fit into the female parts of other toy block, and the male part of the other toy block fits into a female part of the other toy block. This allows the linking surfaces of the toy blocks having the male parts and female parts to link to each other at a variety of angles. The toy blocks rotate relative to each other when linked together.
