Abstract: A structure for mounting a clip for a writing implement that includes (i) a pivotable clip which includes a stationary coupling portion extending along a reference axis; a main body that is pivotable in a pivot plane containing the reference axis, having two sidewalls each comprising a pivot-limiting hook; and a resiliently deformable curved portion connecting the main body to the coupling portion, enabling the main body to pivot relative to the coupling portion; (ii) a receiving member for receiving the coupling portion of the clip.

Abstract: A mechanical pencil having a tubular body extending along a longitudinal axis between a rear-end which has a first opening and a front-end which has a second opening, a lead that can move out through the second opening and a mechanism for advancing the lead arranged within the tubular body. The advancing mechanism includes a pushing device adapted to slide parallel to the longitudinal axis, a chuck located at the front end side of the tubular body and which could be tightened onto the lead in a tightened position; a reservoir which extends along the longitudinal axis for housing at least one lead, wherein the tubular body has an annular wall for pushing device retention at the rear end thereof.

Abstract: A writing instrument including a hollow body extending between a rear end and a front end of the hollow body; a writing member mounted inside the hollow body and provided with a tip at a free end; a protective sleeve movable between a tip protection position and a retracted position for writing; at least one first stop formed on the hollow body; and at least one locking member able to engage said first stop.

Abstract: A writing implement that includes a deformable hollow body extended along a central axis as far as one end, and an end member that includes a tubular portion which has an inner face equipped with a plurality of first projecting reliefs suitable for engaging with and radially deforming the hollow body during the fitting of the end member by engagement of its tubular portion around the end of the hollow body. The writing implement includes an inner face of the tubular portion that has a plurality of second projecting reliefs having a height measured radially from the inner face which is generally less than the height of the first projecting reliefs and is adapted so that the second reliefs apply a radial pressure on the hollow body deformed by the first reliefs.
