Digitizing stylus

In a digitizing stylus of the type having a holder shaft comprised of a front part and a tubular part and elongated in an axial direction and a contacting pin of ferromagnetic material movable in the axial direction within said front part of the stylus and counter to spring force, in a manner where said movement is limited in the axial direction, and the contacting pin has an inner end area which is oriented toward the tubular part and extends for said movement through the central opening of a toroid coil and is coupled with a switching device, whereupon the movement of the contacting pin into the shaft closes a current circuit for the toroid coil, wherein the improvement comprises, in combination, a toroid coil (3) which axially moves together with a contacting pin (2) characterized by the contacting pin (2) and toroid coil (3) being integrally cast within a plastic body (4), said plastic body having an inner end in contact with an actuation body (8), said actuation body having an inner end comprising an annular flange (9) supporting one end of a compression spring (11), with another end of the spring resting upon an annular body (12) which is held stationary with respect to said tubular part, a switching device which closes at a first axial position of said actuation body, prior to an inwardmost stop position and remains closed during further inward movement to a second axial position, at said inwardmost stop.
