Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a line drawing tool for books that is designed for drawing sidelines or underlines on sentences in books using various writing instruments. To be more specific, the present invention allows you to memorize sentences, phrases, etc. when studying or reading various books.
Or, write about sentences or phrases that you think are important.
With a variety of writing instruments, this tool allows you to quickly and accurately draw side lines when text in a book is written vertically, and underlines when text in a book is written horizontally. Furthermore, when the line drawing tool according to the present invention is not used for its original purpose as a line drawing tool for a book, it can be inserted between the middle pages of a book that has been read to prevent it from folding. It can also be used as a shield that does not bend or bend.

Traditionally, various types of rulers equipped with scales to indicate length have been used to draw sidelines or underlines in books written vertically or horizontally. However, there was no tool like the present invention that was specifically used for underlining sentences in books.

For this reason, in the past, when an appropriate ruler equipped with a length display scale was used for line quotation in a book, the characters in the part of the line to be drawn were covered by the scale of the ruler, etc. The ruler may be overturned and you may not be able to draw the line you want, or the ruler may move slightly in all directions, making it impossible to easily, quickly, and accurately draw a line in the relevant sentence or phrase that requires drawing. In addition, since the appropriate rulers conventionally used are not specialized tools for drawing lines, there have been other inconveniences such as ink or the like smearing onto the page in the middle of drawing lines. In addition, when drawing a line using a conventional appropriate ruler, the appropriate ruler, which is simply a thin long flat plate, is used.
There have been various inconveniences, such as the fact that it takes a great deal of effort to accurately position the line in the appropriate part of the text.

The present invention was created in view of the conventional situation as described above, and its purpose is to eliminate the above-mentioned conventional inconveniences and to draw lines on sentences in books easily, quickly, and accurately. Another object of the present invention is to provide a line tool that can be used as a shiwori when not used as a line tool.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the line drawing tool according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the attached drawings.

The main body 1 of the line drawing tool of the present invention does not matter what kind of color the material of the tool has; The characters are transparent so that they can be read through the device of the present invention. The shape of the main body 1 is appropriately thin,
It is formed into an appropriate long flat plate shape. In actual use, it is optimal for the main body 1 to have a thickness of about 0.1 cm, width sides 2 and 2' of 4 cm, and longitudinal sides 3 and 3' of about 21 cm. In any case, the thickness, width, and length of the main body 1 are not particularly limited, but the length and length of the currently published books,
It is best to choose the one that is most convenient for use as a line drawing tool, depending on the horizontal size.

The material of the main body 1 formed as described above is not particularly limited, and any transparent material such as acrylic resin may be used. When drawing a line with a liquid writing instrument on the side edge of one longitudinal side 3 of the main body 1,
An appropriate notch 4 is provided to prevent ink, etc. from bleeding onto the page surface of the book, and the notch 4
As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, it is conceivable to have an appropriate cut shape suitable for preventing bleeding of ink, etc.

The main body 1 is fitted with a sliding body 5 that fits into the notch 4 formed into the appropriate shape and is slidable while closely fitting the main body 1. An appropriate locking piece 6, which acts as a stopper for the sliding body, is fixed to the front end of the sliding body on both sides of the main body. In this case, the sliding body 5 is the main body 1
It slides in the direction of the arrow in the figure only when an artificial sliding force is applied while being in close contact with the main body 1, and when the artificial sliding is stopped, it is in close contact with the main body 1 and an appropriate fixing force is applied. Any type of structure may be used as long as it has a suitable coefficient of friction with the main body 1 to prevent natural sliding, and also prevents damage to both surfaces of the main body 1. To,
It is possible to apply appropriate processing to the inner surface of the sliding body.

When drawing a side line on text in a vertically written book 7, the line drawing tool of the present invention formed as described above slides on the upper edge 8 of the opened book up to the locking piece located at the top of the main body. While sliding the moving body and locking the protruding part at the bottom of the sliding body to the upper edge 8 of the expanded book as appropriate, draw lines while moving the main body 1 to the left and right as shown by the arrows in the figure. It is something to do.

Furthermore, when underlining sentences in horizontally written Book 7, each line of text is generally shorter in horizontally written books than in vertically written books, so the central part of the spread of the book becomes a hindrance. The edge of the line drawing tool rises above the page surface and is inconvenient when drawing lines.
Slide the sliding body appropriately so that the main body 1 is positioned within the page surface, and while the protruding portion at the bottom of the sliding body is engaged with the side edge 9 of the book, move the main body 1 upward as shown by the arrow in the figure.・It draws a line while moving it downwards.

As mentioned above, in the line drawing device according to the present invention, regardless of whether the text in the book is written vertically or horizontally, the sliding body can be locked to the top edge or side edge of the book to draw a line. By simply positioning the main body 1 at the relevant position of a sentence, phrase, etc., it is possible to draw a line extremely easily, quickly, and accurately.In addition, when drawing a line, the main body itself is a transparent thin plate, so You can draw lines where necessary while reading the text on the page. In any of the above cases, when drawing a line, even if a liquid-based writing instrument, such as a fountain pen, is used, the ink, etc. This prevents inconveniences such as blurring on the page.

In addition, when the present invention is not used as a line drawing tool as described above, the sliding body is stopped at the locking piece of the main body, and the sliding body is exposed to the outside of the closed book. If you let me,
The line drawing tool itself can be used as a shield without breaking or bending.
