Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] This invention relates to a wristwatch band structure, and particularly to a pen-equipped wristwatch in which a writing instrument such as a felt-tip pen or a ballpoint pen is incorporated into the band portion.

[Conventional technology]

Conventional technology that combines a time display clock and a writing instrument is mainly a ballpoint pen or fountain pen, with a liquid crystal display (LCD) near the top of the pen.
There is a pen with a built-in clock that digitally displays the time (Crystal Display).

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

By the way, when carrying a watch pen, it is common to use the pocket clip attached to the top of the pen to hang it in the pocket of a jacket, so if there is no pocket in the jacket, must be carried in a pencil case or bag. In other words, when using a pen with a watch, it may be inconvenient to carry it around. Although it is not impossible to hang the pen in a pants pocket, jacket cuff, or neckline,
Undesirable in appearance and activity.

This invention was developed against the background of the above-mentioned circumstances, and the purpose is to provide a wristwatch with a pen that is extremely convenient to carry by incorporating a writing instrument into the band of the wristwatch.

[Means for solving problems]

This invention was developed in order to solve the above-mentioned problems: A watch part that displays the time, a band part that attaches to this watch part and is wrapped around the wrist, and both outer end parts of this band part are engaged with each other. In a wristwatch consisting of a fastening part for stopping; from one outer end part of the band part to the inside thereof, the band part is made of a material having both appropriate flexibility and rigidity;
A writing part made of a flexible material excluding the pen tip is integrally installed inside the band part so that the pen tip protrudes from one outer end of the band part, and at the same time, the writing part is attached to the other outer end of the band part. The main idea is that a cap is provided to protect the tip from the outside.

The cap is a ring cap movably mounted around the band portion.

[Effect]

This invention is based on the above-mentioned means, and the writing part made of a flexible material is integrated inside the band part, which has both appropriate flexibility and rigidity, so that the band part can be wrapped around the arm and tightened. The writing part can be incorporated into the wristwatch band without hindering the ability to carry the wristwatch by locking it in place.

Furthermore, by enclosing the ring cap around the band portion, ink is prevented from flowing out from the pen tip of the writing portion, and flexible pen nibs such as felt pen nibs and brush pens are protected.

Furthermore, if the pen tip is hard such as a ballpoint pen or a fountain pen, injury to the skin is prevented.

Furthermore, since this ring cap surrounds the band portion in a ring shape, it will not fall off from the band portion due to the tabs and hook tape on the band portion, which will be described later.

〔Example〕

Two preferred embodiments of this invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1, the first embodiment of this invention is roughly composed of a watch section 1, a band section 2, a fastener section 3, and a writing section 4 provided inside the band section 2.

The clock part 1 uses a clock of known technology, and for the general public, a lightweight and inexpensive digital watch in a plastic case is most suitable; however, even if a high-quality analog or digital watch is used as the clock part 1. There is no problem. This watch portion 1 is provided with four ear-like protrusions 10 for pivotal attachment to the band portion 2, and each ear-like protrusion 10 is provided with a pin fixing hole 11 in the horizontal direction.

It is desirable that the band portion 2 is made of an elastic and rigid material that has a suitable combination of elasticity and rigidity so that it can be wrapped around the arm, and at the same time has sufficient hardness to serve as a pen shaft when writing. . When molding, the writing part 4 is integrally provided inside with the pen tip 40 protruding from one outer end. Further, depending on the case, the band portion 2 may be integrally provided with rigid reinforcing members 26, 26 made of a spring material or the like to provide sufficient rigidity.

This writing section 4 consists of a pen tip 40 and an ink cartridge 42. As the pen nib 40, various pen nibs can be used, such as felt, plastic, hair, ballpoint pen nib, and fountain pen nib. Further, a ring cap 46 is movably mounted on the other outer end side of the band portion 2, and the pen tip 40
It is designed to protect the wearer. The ink cartridge 42 may be formed of a flexible waterproof material into an elongated or flat cylindrical shape with the same diameter, as long as it can be filled with ink, India ink, or the like. For high viscosity ink such as ballpoint pens, use the pen tip 4.
An air hole or the like is required to adjust the air pressure inside the ink cartridge 42 so that a constant amount of ink flows out from the ink cartridge 42, but this is explained in the second embodiment.

In addition, in this first embodiment, the ink cartridge 42 is molded separately from the band portion 2 and is later integrated into the band portion 2 when the band portion 2 is molded. For example,
When forming the band portion 2, a hollow portion may be formed inside the band portion 2, and the hollow portion may be filled with ink to form the ink cartridge 42.

Now, in order to pivotally attach the watch part 1 to the approximately central part of the band part 2, elongated ear pieces 20, 20 are provided.
is integrally installed. Each ear piece 20 is penetrated with a pin hole 22 along its longitudinal direction, so in order to pivotally attach the watch part 1 to the band part 2, two spring rods 24, 24 are required. After the pin holes 22, 22 in the ear pieces 20, 20 of the band part 2 are loosely inserted one by one, the ear-like protrusions 1 of the watch part 1 are inserted.
They are fixed to the pin fixing holes 11 located at 0, respectively.

The fastener part 3 consists of two parts that can be joined and disassembled, one part being a hook tape 30 attached to the lower surface of the other outer end of the band part 2, and a ring attached to the band part 2 inside the hook tape 30. A band loop 32 is provided. Other parts include an adjustment slide 34 and a stopper 36 movably mounted around one outer end of the band portion 2. A pile tape 35 that is hooked to the hook tape 30 is attached to the upper surface of the adjustment slide 34, and a pile tape 35 is attached to the adjustment slide 34 and the stopper 36.
and are connected to each other with a pin across the band portion 2. In this way, the adjustment slide 34 is mounted around the band portion 2 so as to be movable, but the stopper 36 holds the band portion 2 between the pins 38 and is rotatable with respect to the adjustment slide 34. Since the L-shaped stopper 36 is pivotally mounted, by pushing down the long part of the L-shaped stopper 36 toward one outer end of the band part 2, its tooth part (short part) engages the band part 2, and as a result, the adjustment slide 34 is adjusted. The band portion 2 is locked at any position inside one outer end portion of the band portion 2.

In addition, it is also possible to implement this invention as a bracelet-like ornament without attaching the watch part 1.

FIG. 2 illustrates the state in which the pen-equipped wristwatch of this invention is to be carried. To explain how to carry it based on this figure, first, curve one outer end side of the band part 2 where the pen tip 40 is located and pass it through the band loop 32, then move the pen tip 40 freely onto the band part 2. Sliding ring cap 4
6 into the cap 48 provided on the inner peripheral side. Next, pull the hook tape 30 between your fingers to adjust the size of the wrapping circle formed by wrapping the band portion 2 around your arm to the thickness of your arm, and add pile tape to the top surface. 35 is attached to the adjustment slide 34 with the hook tape 3.
By sliding them to the 0 position, hooking them to each other, and pressing them from above, the stopper 36 bites the band portion 2, and both outer end portions of the band portion 2 are locked to each other.

Due to the basic structure as described above, this invention is not limited to the technical contents disclosed in the first embodiment, and can be developed in various variations. For example, an embodiment as shown in FIG. 3 is also possible.

FIG. 3 shows a second embodiment of this invention.
In FIG. 3, the band part 2 is divided into two parts with the watch part 1 at the center.
A suitable pen-equipped wristwatch can be implemented without changing the basic structure of this invention, such as by pivotally connecting the watch portion 1 and the band portions 2a, 2a by means of 4 and 24. Further, in the writing section 4 of this second embodiment, the ink cartridge 42a is integrally molded by making the inside hollow when the band section 2a is molded. By doing so, the writing part 4 can be formed by simply embedding the pen tip 40 into the tip of the band part 2a, so the number of steps and cost can be reduced.

FIG. 3 illustrates an embodiment in which a ballpoint pen is used as the writing section 4. Since ink for ballpoint pens is highly sticky, there is an ink cartridge near the rear end of the ink cartridge 42a for adjusting the air pressure inside the ink cartridge 42a so that a constant amount of ink flows out from the pen tip 40 during writing. An air hole 44 is opened to partially penetrate the band portion 2a.

To explain this in more detail with reference to FIG. 4, which is a cross-sectional view taken along the - line in FIG. 44
A plug 45 is provided to prevent leakage.

Note that the shape of the ink cartridge 42a is not limited to the illustrated elongated hollow cylinder, and can be expanded to approximately the size of the band portion 2a.

[Effect of idea]

By integrally molding the writing part with the watch band, this invented wristwatch with a pen allows various writing tools such as felt-tip pens, ballpoint pens, and fountain pens to be easily carried anywhere. The phenomenon of forgetting to carry your phone can be almost completely prevented.

Furthermore, since it is not obvious from the outside that the user is carrying a writing device, it is smart and there is no inconvenience associated with carrying the device.

Furthermore, if a digital watch with a lightweight and inexpensive plastic case is used as the clock part,
If the watch is low-priced and aimed at the masses, and if a high-quality watch part is used and the band and other parts are made of a suitable high-grade material, it can fully meet the demand for a luxury item.
