Technical Field
The invention relates to a pencil sharpener used on a desk, which can select the sharpening angle of a pencil.
Background
The pencil sharpener used on a desk generally has a function of selecting the sharpness of the lead of the pencil. The pencil sharpener is in contact with the tip of a pencil lead, and a pencil lead position determining member is provided inside the rotary blade portion of the pencil sharpener so as to be capable of changing the position thereof, thereby determining the insertion position of the pencil with respect to the rotary blade portion and determining the sharpness of the pencil lead.
However, when sharpening a pencil, it is desirable to select the cutting angle of the pencil shaft in addition to the sharpness of the lead of the pencil.
That is, the pencil lead used by the children of the lower grade of primary school is very soft (e.g., 2B-4B), and they write with great strength. Therefore, in order to prevent breakage of the pencil lead, a pencil having a cutting angle (for example, 26 degrees) larger than the cutting angle (for example, 20 degrees) of a pencil (for example, having hardness of H, HB, B, or the like) generally used is desired.
Further, since the colored pencil has a softer lead strength than the ordinary pencil, it is desirable that the colored pencil has a larger cutting angle (e.g., 35 degrees).
Therefore, as a pencil sharpener used on a desk, there is a demand for a pencil sharpener capable of setting a sharpening angle to an optimum angle depending on the application and the type of pencil, as compared with the conventional pencil sharpener.
Patent document 1 discloses a pencil sharpener capable of changing the angle of pencil sharpening, in which one end of a sharpening roller shaft is supported by a wedge capable of freely moving in and out, and the inclination of the sharpening roller can be changed.

Problems to be solved by the invention
The pencil sharpener described in patent document 1 can change the cutting angle of the pencil shaft, but the set cutting angle is difficult to understand, and it is difficult to set an optimum cutting angle according to the kind of pencil or the hardness.
To solve the above problems, the present invention provides a pencil sharpener capable of easily and reliably designating the cutting angle of a pencil shaft as an optimum angle according to the hardness of a pencil lead.
Means for solving the problems
To solve the above problems, the invention according to claim 1 provides a pencil sharpener having a holding portion for allowing a pencil to be inserted along a barrel insertion axis and a rotary blade portion provided at a set inclination angle with respect to the barrel insertion axis while driving to rotate a tip portion of the pencil by rotating a handle, the pencil sharpener cutting the tip portion of the pencil at a set cutting angle. The pencil sharpener includes a blade holding member for holding the rotary blade portion on the holding portion so as to be tiltable at a predetermined tilt angle about a tilt axis provided on the holding portion; an elastic member that applies a biasing force in the direction in which the inclination angle increases to the rotary blade portion; a blade angle holding member that holds the inclination angle of the rotary blade portion at a certain angle; an angle determining means capable of determining the inclination angle of the rotary blade portion based on the cutting angle suitable for the hardness of the pencil lead.
Here, the "lead hardness" of the pencil includes hardness (H, HB, B, etc.) specified in JIS standard and lead hardness of a color pencil softer than a normal pencil.
According to the present invention, the rotary cutter portion is held so as to be tiltable about the tilting axis during pencil sharpening, and the elastic member applies a biasing force in a direction in which the tilting angle increases. The blade holding member is in contact with the blade angle holding member to hold the angle of inclination of the rotary blade at a predetermined angle. The angle determining means determines the inclination angle of the rotary cutter portion based on the cutting angle suitable for the hardness of the pencil lead.
Therefore, the angle of the rotary blade with respect to the shaft for inserting the barrel can be selected and set only by operating the blade angle holding member, and the optimum angle for cutting the pencil can be determined simply and accurately according to the kind or use of the pencil.
The invention of claim 2, the pencil sharpener of claim 1, wherein the blade portion angle retention means has an angle retention inner surface which is a rotation surface of the blade retention means, the rotation surface having a different radius along the barrel insertion axis with the insertion axis as an axis; the blade holding member has a rotating member that rotates in contact with the angle holding inner surface of the blade angle holding member; the angle determining member rotates around the shaft for inserting the shaft, so that the blade angle maintaining member moves forward and backward in the direction of the shaft for inserting the shaft.
According to the present invention, the angle of the blade holding member is determined by the radius of the angle retaining inner surface, and the rotating member of the blade holding member rotates in contact with the inner surface. Since the angle maintaining inner surface has the rotation surfaces having different radii with the insertion shaft as an axis, the revolution radius of the rotational member of the blade holding member, that is, the inclination angle of the blade holding member can be set by moving the blade angle maintaining member forward and backward along the barrel insertion shaft by the angle determining member. Therefore, by rotating the operation angle determining member, the optimum angle can be simply and reliably specified to sharpen the pencil according to the type or use of the pencil.
Also, the invention of claim 3, the pencil sharpener of claim 2, wherein the blade portion angle retaining member is formed in a cylindrical shape, the angle retaining inner surfaces have different radii, the inner surface is composed of a plurality of short cylindrical inner surfaces arranged at regular intervals in the barrel insertion axis direction, and a conical inner surface arranged between the short cylindrical inner surfaces so as to be continuous with the short cylindrical inner surfaces, the conical inner surfaces having different radii.
According to the present invention, since the angle maintaining inner surface has a plurality of short cylindrical inner surfaces and a conical inner surface connected to the short cylindrical inner surfaces, the inclination angle of the blade holding member can be set by moving the blade angle maintaining member back and forth along the shaft for inserting the cartridge by the angle determining member, rotating the rotating member to select the short cylindrical inner surface, and setting the revolution radius of the rotating member of the blade holding member. Further, when the rotating member moves back and forth from the inner surface of one short cylinder to the inner surface of the other short cylinder, the conical inner surfaces formed by connecting the inner surfaces of the short cylinders also move simultaneously. Therefore, the movement in the front-rear direction is easier when the tilt angle is changed.
Therefore, the inclination angle suitable for the hardness of the pencil can be specified in steps by rotating the operation angle specifying member, and further, the rotating movement of the rotating member can be smoothly performed by operating the operation angle specifying member when the steps are selected.

Then, the angle of the blade holding member is changed as the blade angle holding member is moved. Therefore, the cutting angle of the pencil can be changed by such a simple operation of the rotation angle determining member.
The invention described in claim 6, the pencil sharpener described in claim 1, wherein the angle determination means has a rotary dial provided on a side of the pencil sharpener into which the pencil is inserted, and on the rotary dial, the cutting corner shape of the selected pencil is displayed as an icon of a pencil image.

The rotary dial (12) constitutes an angle determining member.
Two cam grooves, a cam groove (43) and another cam groove (43), are formed at a side wall portion (42) of the first cylindrical member (40). The cam groove (43) and the other cam groove (43) are engaged with a projection (58) to linearly move (move back and forth) the second cylindrical member (50) along the insertion axis OP, and the projection (58) is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the second cylindrical member (50) described later. The cam groove (43) and the other cam groove (43) are inclined with respect to the generatrix of the first cylindrical member (40) and formed at symmetrical positions about the insertion axis OP. By rotating the first cylindrical member (40), the projection (58) of the second cylindrical member (50) engaged therewith is driven in the front-rear direction, and the second cylindrical member (50) is moved in the front-rear direction.
Next, the second cylindrical member (50) will be described. As shown in fig. 2 and 4, in the second cylindrical member (50), the angle retaining inner surface (50A) is in contact with the turning member (25) of the blade holding member (22) and maintains the inclination angle of the rotary blade portion (21) at a predetermined angle.
The second cylindrical member (50) is provided so as to be movable only forward and backward, and a projection (58) and another projection (58) are formed on the outer peripheral surface, and the projection (58) and the other projection (58) are fitted in the cam groove (43) and the other cam groove (43) of the first cylindrical member (40), respectively. By rotating the first cylindrical member (40), the second cylindrical member (50) is moved in the front-rear direction along the insertion axis OP.
A second cylindrical member (50) is disposed along the insertion axis OP. The second cylindrical member (50) has an angle-maintaining inner surface (50A), and the angle-maintaining inner surface (50A) is formed as a surface of rotation having different radii along the insertion axis OP with the insertion axis OP as an axis. The two projections, the projection (58) and the other projection (58), are formed so as to project from the outside of the second cylindrical member (50).
The second cylindrical member (50) is further provided with two guide projections (56), and the two guide projections (56) are fitted into the two sets of guide rails (19, 19) to prohibit the second cylindrical member (50) from rotating and only allow the second cylindrical member (50) to linearly move along the insertion axis OP. The guide rail (19) is formed opposite to the inside of the body (11).
In the present embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the angle maintaining inner surface (50A) has a plurality of inner circumferences having different radii, and in the present embodiment, has three short cylindrical inner surfaces (51), (52), (53) and two conical inner surfaces (54), (55). The conical inner surfaces (54), (55) connect the short cylindrical inner surfaces (51), (52), (53). By the operation of the rotary dial (12) and the first cylindrical member (40), the rotary member (25) rotates along the inner surface set by the short cylindrical inner surfaces (51), (52), (53) of the angle holding inner surface (50A).
In this embodiment, the cutting angle is 20 degrees when the rotating member (25) is in contact with the short cylinder inner surface (51), and similarly, the cutting angle is 26 degrees when the rotating member (25) is in contact with the short cylinder inner surface (52), and the cutting angle is 35 degrees when the rotating member (25) is in contact with the short cylinder inner surface (53). In addition, as the rotating member, other constituent members having a roller member may be used, for example, a rollable spherical member or the like may be used.
Next, the rotary dial (12) will be explained. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the rotary dial (12) has a display window (16), a display window (17), and a direction indicating section (18). In this embodiment, the display window (16) and the display window (17) are opened to allow icons, characters, and the like described on the dial substrate (30) to be recognized, and the dial substrate (30) is formed on the rear surface of the rotary dial (12).
On the dial substrate (30), three kinds of icons (pencil images) of the pencil sharpening state shown in fig. 10 can be observed through the display window (16). Further, on the dial substrate (30), the writing core hardness characters ("HB-2B", "2B-4B", "6B-color pencil") as shown in FIG. 10 can be observed through the display window (17). Further, a sharpened pencil icon is displayed at a position indicated by the direction indicating section (18) on the upper surface of the main body (11). In addition, the shapes of the rotary dial (12), the display window (16), the display window (17), and the direction display section (18) can be changed as needed.
As shown in figure (2a), when the direction display part (18) of the rotary dial (12) faces upwards and is set to be 20 degrees, the pencil sharpener (10) sets a pencil sharpening angle of 20 degrees. At this time, the pencil icon shown in FIG. 10a is displayed on the
Therefore, the user can grasp the current cutting state of the pencil sharpener (10) according to the position of the direction display part (18) and the icon on the body (11) displayed on the direction display part (18), the icon observed by the display window (16) and the hardness of the pencil lead observed by the display window (17).
Next, the action of the pencil sharpener (10) of the first embodiment will be described. First, the user can select the cutting state of the pencil according to the type of pencil, the hardness of the lead of the pencil, or the use state. The cutting angle is preferably 20 degrees when the hardness is HB-2B, 26 degrees when the lead hardness is 2B-4B, and 35 degrees when the lead hardness is 6B or more or a color pencil is used. In addition, when the user is a young child of an elementary school, it is desirable to increase the cutting angle.
As shown in fig. 2, 4 and 5, the cutting angle can be set to a desired angle by rotating the rotary dial (12). The user selects the cutting angle of the pencil by recognizing the position of the direction indicating part (18) of the rotary dial (12), the icon on the main body (11) indicated by the direction indicating part (18), the icon displayed on the display window (16), and the hardness of the pencil lead displayed on the display window (17).
As shown in fig. 2, 4, and 5, when the rotary dial (12) is rotated, the first cylindrical member (40) rotates with the rotation of the rotary dial (12). Thus, the cam groove (43) of the first cylindrical member (40) rotates to guide the projection (58) of the second cylindrical member (50). At this time, since the second cylindrical member (50) can move only along the insertion axis OP, the second cylindrical member (50) moves back and forth along the insertion axis OP at a predetermined position.
Then, the rotary dial (12) can rotate the holding inner surface (50A) to a prescribed position from an arbitrary angle, and the rotating member (25) of the blade holding member (22) can be brought into contact with the inner surface of the rotary dial (12) at the prescribed position, for example, with the short cylindrical inner surface (51). In addition, if the rotary dial (12) rotates to rotate the handle (14), the movement of the turning member (25) on the angle retaining inner surface (50A) is made easier.
In this state, the blade holding member (22) has a prescribed angle with respect to the insertion axis OP, a pencil is inserted into the insertion hole (13) and held by the holding portion (23), and when the handle (14) is rotated, the pencil P is conveyed by the conveying means (70) while being cut at the prescribed angle by the rotary blade portion (21).
Next, the effects of the pencil sharpener (10) will be explained. According to the pencil sharpener (10) of the present embodiment, the cutting angle suitable for the hardness of the pencil lead can be specified simply by rotating the dial (12).
In the cutting device (20), the rotary blade part (21) is reliably held by the angle holding inner surface (50A) of the rotating member (25) of the blade holding member (22) and the second cylindrical member (50), so that the rotary blade part (21) does not shake and a pencil can be stably cut.
In the above embodiment, the number of the short cylindrical inner surfaces of the angle retaining inner surface (50A) is set to three, but the number may be set to 2 or 4 or more, as a matter of course.
