Abstract: In a pen holder device, a pen holder body (3) contained in a support body (2) is pivotable between an operational position, which is slightly inclined from the perpendicular, and a generally horizontal readiness position, wherein an acute angle exists between the operational position and the readiness position. Bearing shoulders (15) provided on opposite sides of the pen holder body (3) rest with little friction upon support surfaces (12) having evenly curved surface areas. The center of gravity (21) of the pen holder body (3) alone is below the bearing shoulders (15) and the common center of gravity (20) of the pen holder body (3) and a writing instrument (4) inserted in it is above the bearing shoulders (15).

Abstract: A stand for receiving a tubular writing pen which comprises an insertion opening, a sealing element of elastically deformable material disposed below the insertion opening and adapted to come into a sealing engagement contact with the free end of the writing tube of an inserted tubular writing pen. The sealing element (4) has a bearing area for contact with a writing tube (12) that is convex curved in the direction toward said insertion opening of the stand (1, 2) and is deformable away from said insertion opening by contact with the tube. The stand further is characterized by an elastically deformable restraining element (5) which is provided between said sealing element (4) and said insertion opening, and adapted to engage against an inserted tubular writing pen (10, 11, 12).

Abstract: The invention refers to an improved writing fluid cartridge or writing fluid tank with a connection section at the front end for attachment to a writer, especially a tube writer, wherein the cartridge is divided into at least two sealably separate compartments, one of which having an ink capacity equal to substantially the ink capacity of the writer body.
