Abstract
A type of multiple-shaft pen kit, comprising a link hook joined to the top of each operating knob in the multiple-shaft pen kit. The link hook pulls an operating unit, and its position can be reset by a reset spring. The operating unit is joined with a pushing piece which is located in a housing to push on the inside of the moving unit and cause the outside of the moving unit to swing. Or it can simultaneously drive an interior moving part to move, so the various figure patterns on the interior moving part will match the through holes on the housing. Such a construction is designed to create different changing effects, adding more fun to the animated effects.
Claims7
A multiple-shaft pen, comprising:
- a tubular main body having opposing upper and lower ends, said main body having a plurality of longitudinally directed angularly spaced channels;
- a tubular barrel coupled to said lower end of said main body and having a opening formed in a distal end thereof;
- a plurality of ink cartridges disposed in a bore defined by said tubular main body and said tubular barrel, each of said ink cartridges having a first spring coupled thereto and an operating knob extending from a proximal end thereof and disposed in a respective one of said plurality of channels for controlling displacement of said ink cartridge into said opening against a bias force established by said first spring and withdrawal therefrom using said bias force, each said operating knob having a link hook extending therefrom for displacement with said operating knob;
- a connector seat coupled to said upper end of said main body, said connector seat having a longitudinally extended through bore formed therein;
- a movable operating member disposed in said through bore, said movable operating member having a lower end coupled to an upper end of each said link hook for displacement therewith;
- a housing coupled to an upper end of said connector seat;
- a second spring disposed on said movable operating member;
- a pushing piece disposed in said housing and coupled to said movable operating member for displacement therewith, said pushing piece being biased by said second spring;
- and,
- a pair of first moving parts pivotally coupled to said housing and contacting said pushing piece for angular displacement of said pair of first moving parts responsive to said longitudinal displacement of said operating knob.
