A pen is provided that utilizes actuating components of a conventional push-button type ballpoint, but which are actuated in a novel and unique manner by the use of an externally mounted lever. The externally mounted and movable lever provides a unique attractiveness to the pen and simulates the lever action used with Early American Western rifles, which in addition to providing a function to the pens, provides an attractive and unique-looking pen which can be combined with other features. A conical nose can be formed of brass which would simulate the end of a bullet and a tubular member can be formed of wood simulating a rifle stock. Also various engraving such as used on many Early American Western rifles can be incorporated into the outer surface of tubular member.

Provided is a retractable writing instrument including a pen point, a barrel, and a clip. The pen point is configured to be in a state of projecting from the barrel or a state of being retracted into the barrel by sliding the clip in a longitudinal direction of the barrel. The clip includes a clip body extending in the longitudinal direction of the barrel, a ball portion provided on a front side of the clip body and projecting in a direction of a surface of the barrel, and a clip base provided on a rear side of the clip body and is configured to produce a biasing force in a direction of a surface of the barrel. The surface of the barrel includes a guide groove extending in the longitudinal direction of the barrel and provided with a pair of side surfaces to restrict lateral movement of the ball portion, and the guide groove has a through groove capable of causing the ball portion to be in a noncontact state in a direction of the biasing force at least when the pen point is in the retracted state.

A multicolor writing instrument with an automatic return function includes a lower housing having a hollow cylindrical shape; an upper housing connected to an upper portion of the lower housing and formed with locking steps; a clip member hingedly provided on the upper housing so as to be movable about a hinge shaft; a coil spring resiliently installed between the clip member and the upper housing; pen cores filled with at least two different color inks; knobs having ends fitted into the respective pen cores; return springs resiliently installed between the pen cores and the knobs; and a return member formed integrally with the clip member on one side of the hinge shaft and toward the respective knobs.

A writing instrument having an automatic sealing structure, in which a hinge part of a holder has projection jaws formed thereon having a role of a stopper that can prevent a hinge shaft from being excessively pivoted, thereby more effectively preventing ink from drying out due to complete sealing of the nib. The writing instrument having an automatic sealing structure, including: a body case having a front opening formed in one end thereof; a knock part coupled to the other end of the body case so as to make a nib protrude from or be retracted into the front opening of the body case by a pushing operation thereof; a cartridge inserted into the body case together with a spring in a state in which the knock part and the nib are coupled to both ends thereof, respectively; at least one O-ring fixedly fitted in the body case; a holder fixedly fitted in the body case so that one end thereof is covered by the O-ring; and a ball shutter pivotally coupled to the holder to allow the nib to protrude or be sealed according to the pivoting thereof, wherein the ball shutter includes hinge shafts formed in a fan shape, and hinge parts of the holder, in which the hinge shaft is pivotally positioned, have projection jaws formed thereon by protruding inwardly to limit a pivot range of the hinge shaft.

Provided are an erasing implement and a writing implement equipped with the erasing implement, the erasing implement being capable of erasing writing regardless of the type of ink or lead of the writing implement, even writing with thermochromic ink or writing with pencil lead. The erasing implement is equipped with a first erasing member for erasing writing with thermochromic ink and a second erasing member for erasing writing of types other than thermochromic ink, and is configured by covering the outer surface of the second erasing member with the first erasing member.

A thermochromic writing instrument including a writing body, storing a thermochromic ink therein, stored in a barrel; an operation body provided in the barrel to be operated to longitudinally move the writing body; a nib of the writing body configured to be capable of appearing from a front end of the writing instrument, wherein the writing instrument 1 further includes a friction unit, for rubbing handwriting in the thermochromic ink and capable of thermally changing the color of the handwriting by frictional heat generated at that time, and at least one clip body as the operation body, the friction unit 10 is provided at a rear end of the barrel, and the clip body is provided in an area other than the rear end of the barrel.

A stylus includes a casing comprising an opening, a push rod disposed in the casing, a pen head fixed on an end of the push rod, a reflector coupled to the push rod, and a linkage mechanism disposed in the casing. At least a part of the pen head is exposed of the casing. An end of the linkage mechanism is fixed on the casing. The linkage mechanism connects reflector to the push rod, such that when the pen head is pushed into the casing, a moving distance of the reflector is greater than that of the pen head, and the reflector is exposed of the opening.

A retractable ink pen including an elongate ink cartridge having a writing end and an exposed ink opening, wherein the writing end moves from a retracted position to an extended position for writing. The retractable ink pen includes a cap including a recess with an inner surface having one of: i) a position structure, and ii) both a first locator and a second locator spaced a distance from the first locator along a first longitudinal axis. The retractable ink pen further includes an elongate barrel including an outer surface having the other of the position structure and both the first locator and the second locator, wherein the position structure is located at the first locator when the writing end is in the retracted position and wherein the locating structure is located at the second locator when the writing end is in the extended position.

An improved structure of writing instrument includes a pen body including a pen barrel and an ink refill and tip mounted in the pen barrel, a positioning device including a retaining ring mounted in the pen barrel and a positioning protrusion located at the retaining ring and extended outside the pen barrel, and a pen clip having a clickable top end thereof coupled to the pen body that controls the ink refill and tip between an extended position and a retracted position and an opposing bottom end thereof provided with a U groove that is coupled with the positioning protrusion of the positioning device to guide the pen clip to slide up and down in relation to the positioning protrusion stably and smoothly, and prevent deviation or loosening.
