  • Patent number: 6439735
    Abstract: This invention of double-tube water pen includes an outer tube, an inner tube, an ink tube, a pen cover, and a pen top. Once the inner and outer tubes are connected, decorative liquid can be added. The closed end of the inner tube can have an extended tube. This extended tube can take in ink tube in its outer tube and make the length of ink tube to be longer. Moreover, a glowing gadget can be installed into the empty space inside of inner tube. One end of the glowing gadget is pushed closely to the end of the ink tube. When users use the pen and press the ink tube to the glowing gadget, the glowing part inside of the gadget will receive current and start to glow. This will add special effect to the pen.

  • Patent number: 6249981
    Abstract: An improved structure of a sharpener comprising an ornamental seat, a light-emitting body, a fixing seat module, a spring, a conductive cap, a push rod, a main body containing a sharpening means, and a bottom cap, wherein the fixing seat module can be replaced by a circuit board, a musical disc and a sound mask. When a pencil is inserted into a sharpening aperture provided on the main body, the push rod is elevated and the light-emitting body at the top end of the fixing seat module is lighted. When the circuit board is used to replace the fixing seat module and a pencil is inserted into the sharpening aperture, the light-emitting body on the circuit board is lighted and music is produced. If the pencil is withdrawn from the main body, there is no electrical current provided to the circuit board, and thus, the music and the light are turned off.
