Refillable ink pen

Claim 2

In a refillable pen with a writing reservoir for supplying the writing tip with ink, the improvement comprising: the refillable pen (1) foxing an additional supply reservoir (3) from which the writing reservoir (2) can be refilled, a first valve (6) disposed between the additional supply reservoir (3) and the writing reservoir (2) and providing a communication between said additional supply reservoir (3) and said writing reservoir (2), a second valve (13) positioned within the refillable pen (1) and providing a communication between said additional supply reservoir (3) and a refill container (20), said additional supply reservoir (3) being larger than the writing reservoir (2) and separated from the writing reservoir (2) by a separating wall (5) which forms a central opening (8), an edge surrounding the central opening (8) forming a valve face on a side of the separating wall (5) facing the writing tip (4), a valve disk (7) positioned in the central opening (8) and mounted on a valve rod (9), a push-button (10), which can be operated from an area outside of the pen (1), mounted on an end of the valve rod (9), the valve rod (9) being sealed off from the additional supply reservoir (3), and the push-button (10) biased by a pressure spring 11, Which is fixed with respect to the refillable pen (1) and urges the valve disk (7) into a closed position, the refillable pen (1) forming a hollow channel (16) at an end portion adjacent to said push button (10) extending from an outside surface of the refillable pen (1) into the additional supply reservoir (3), and the second valve, comprising a rubber membrane (13), disposed within the hollow channel (16), the rubber membrane (13) having a fine central hole which seals the hollow channel (16) when the rubber membrane (13) is in a relaxed state and accommodates an injection needle (21) of a refill container (20) when the rubber membrane (13) is in a penetrated state.

Claim 3

In a refillable pen with a writing reservoir for supplying the writing tip with ink, the improvement comprising: the refillable pen (1) forming an additional supply reservoir (3) from which the writing reservoir (2) can be refilled, a first valve (6) disposed between the additional supply reservoir (3) and the writing reservoir (2) and providing a communication between said additional supply reservoir (3) and said writing reservoir (2), a second valve (13) positioned within the refillable pen (1) and providing a communication between said additional supply reservoir (3) and a refill container (20), the additional supply reservoir (3) being larger than the writing reservoir (2) and separated from the writing reservoir (2) by a separating wall (5), the separating wall (5) comprising a valve disk (7) which sealingly abuts an inner surface of a reservoir wall which forms the writing reservoir (2) and the additional supply reservoir (3), the reservoir wall tapering conically towards a back end of the refillable pen (1), the valve disk (7) mounted on a valve rod (9), a push-button (10) mounted on one end of the valve rod (9) which can be operated from an area outside of the pen (1), the valve rod (9) sealed off from the additional supply reservoir (3), the push-button (10) being biased by a pressure spring (11), which is fixed with respect to the refillable pen (1), thereby urging the valve disk (7) into a closed position, the refillable pen (1) forming a hollow channel (16) extending from an outside surface of the refillable pen (1) into the additional supply reservoir (3), and the second valve, comprising a rubber membrane (13), disposed within the hollow channel (16), the rubber membrane (13) having a fine central hole which seals the hollow channel (16) when the rubber membrane (13) is in a relaxed state and accommodates an injection needle (21) of a refill container (20) when the rubber membrane (13) is in a penetrated state.

Claim 4

In a refillable pen with a writing reservoir for supplying the writing tip with ink, the improvement comprising: the refillable pen (1) forming an additional supply reservoir (3) from which the writing reservoir (2) can be refilled, a first valve (6) disposed between the additional supply reservoir (3) and the writing reservoir (2) and providing a communication between said additional supply reservoir (3) and said writing reservoir (2), a second valve (13) positioned within the refillable pen (1) and providing a communication between said additional supply reservoir (3) and a refill container (20), the additional supply reservoir (3) being larger than the writing reservoir (2) and separated from the writing reservoir (2) by a separating wall (5), the separating wall (5) comprising a valve disk (7) which sealingly abuts an inner surface of a reservoir wall which forms the writing reservoir (2) and the additional supply reservoir (3), the reservoir wall tapering conically towards a back end of the refillable pen (1), the valve disk (7) mounted on a valve rod (9), a push-button (10) mounted on one end of the valve rod (9) which can be operated from an area outside of the pen (1), the valve rod (9) sealed off from the additional supply reservoir (3), the push-button (10) being biased by a pressure spring (11), which is fixed with respect to the refillable pen (1), thereby urging the valve disk (7) into a closed position, the refillable pen (1) forming a hollow channel (16) extending from an outside surface of the refillable pen (1) into the additional supply reservoir (3), and the second valve, comprising a rubber membrane (13), disposed within the hollow channel (16), the rubber membrane (13) having a fine central hole which seals the hollow channel (16) when the rubber membrane (13) is in a relaxed state and accommodates an injection needle (21) of a refill container (20) when the rubber membrane (13) is in a penetrated state.
