Abstract

A pen includes a pen tube, a connection structure, a cap and an elastic unit. The pen tube includes a pen tube case and a thread portion provided at the pen tube case. The connection structure includes a main body, a corresponding thread portion and an elastic unit fastener. The corresponding thread fastener is located at the main body and is for joining with the thread portion. The elastic unit fastener is provided at the main body. The cap includes a cap case and an elastic unit corresponding fastener provided at the cap case. The two ends of the elastic unit are respectively fastened to the elastic unit fastener and the elastic unit corresponding fastener.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A pen, comprising:
a pen tube, comprising:
a pen tube case; and
a thread portion, provided at the pen tube case;

a connection structure, comprising:
a main body;
a corresponding thread portion, provided at the main body, for joining with the thread portion; and
an elastic unit fastener, provided at the main body;

a cap, wherein the main body is located in the cap, the cap comprising;
a cap case; and
an elastic unit corresponding fastener, provided at the cap case; and

an elastic unit, two ends of the elastic unit being respectively fastened to the elastic unit fastener and the elastic unit corresponding fastener,
wherein the elastic unit provides an elastic force so as to enable the connection structure and the cap to be close to each other.

2. The pen as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connection structure further comprises at least one connection structure through hole provided at the main body, the cap further comprises at least one cap through hole provided at the cap case, and a position of the at least one cap through hole corresponds to that of the at least one connection structure through hole.

3. The pen as claimed in claim 2 , further comprising:
a fastening pin, passing through the at least one connection structure through hole and the at least one cap through hole.

4. The pen as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the at least one connection structure through hole is located between the corresponding thread portion and the elastic unit fastener.

5. The pen as claimed in claim 2 , wherein a size of the at least one connection structure through hole is larger than that of the at least one cap through hole.

6. The pen as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the pen tube further comprises a positioning portion, the cap further comprises a corresponding positioning portion, and a shape of the positioning portion corresponds to that of the corresponding positioning portion.

7. The pen as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the pen tube further comprises a form design portion, the cap further comprises a corresponding form design portion, and the form design portion is aligned with the corresponding form design portion when the positioning portion is joined with the corresponding positioning portion.

8. The pen as claimed in claim 7 , wherein a shape of the form design portion is a plane.

9. The pen as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:
a battery, located in the pen tube.

10. The pen as claimed in claim 9 , further comprising:
a conductive elastic unit, connected to the battery.
