A retractable liquid dispenser device comprising an outer body having a retractable mechanism slidably supporting a liquid dispenser. The liquid dispenser has a supply reservoir and a discharge reservoir with a reservoir valve disposed therebetween. A retractable valve is located in proximity to an open first end of the outer body. A first depression of the retractable actuator opens the retractable valve and moves the liquid dispenser into the extended position for enabling a depression of a distal end of the liquid applicator to open the dispensing valve to permit liquid to flow from the supply reservoir into the dispensing reservoir to dispense the applicator liquid from the distal end of the liquid applicator. A second depression of the retractable actuator moves the liquid dispenser into the retracted position and closes the retractable valve to enclose the distal end of the liquid applicator within the outer body.

The present invention is a direct liquid type of writing tool including a pen tip; a columnar ink absorbent body connected to a rear end of the pen tip; an ink tank arranged on the ink absorbent body; and a plurality of communicating tubes for connecting the absorbent body and the ink tank. A front end of each of the communicating tubes is located in the ink absorbent body, and has a sloped surface facing an outer periphery side of the absorbent body. Each of the communicating tubes has an opening in the sloped surface at the front end and each has a tip end region adjacent to the opening and extending more frontward than the opening, and the tip end region forms a pressing part configured to press inside of the absorbent body when each of the tubes is inserted frontward from a rear end of the absorbent body.

An ink and method of conducting an examination suitable for reducing the likelihood that the students' answers on paper-based examinations may be changed at a later time prior to being graded. The ink includes a solution of marking particles, a suspension material, and a preserving material. A mark made with the ink is initially erasable for a predetermined period of time after the mark is formed and after the expiration of the predetermined period of time the mark is not erasable. The method of conducting an examination includes providing an ink to an individual, and then providing questions to an individual wherein the individual indicates answers to the questions by producing marks with the ink.

A writing implement is configured to dispense material onto a work surface. The writing implement includes a body having a first end, a second end, and an inner surface. The writing implement also includes a nib coupled to the first end. The nib is configured to allow the material to be dispensed onto the work piece. The writing implement further includes a pressure regulating assembly coupled to the body. The pressure regulating assembly and the inner surface define a cavity configured to hold the material. The pressure regulating assembly is moveable relative to the body in response to a pressure change within the cavity.
