How to prevent the phenomenon of ink leakage in the fountain pen

Maintenance of fountain pens.

If you want to keep your pen looking like new and writing smoothly, you need to know how to maintain it. But remember, no matter how important the maintenance work is, it also needs the support of personal habits.

1) Regular cleaning, normal use should be every three months (there are also every ten days, half a month, every month or so, etc.) - Hall of Signatures

Note) Wash thoroughly once with warm water to keep the water flowing under the ink. Of course, if you feel that your pen deserves to be cleaned with Perrier distilled water, the effect is even better. Here's how:

Wash with an absorbent pen, prepare a cup of clean warm water (because the heated water is less chlorine-free), repeat the ink action, suck the warm water in and then release it until the released warm water is no longer turbid, and then wipe it dry with tissue paper (some people say that it is best to soak it in warm water overnight, and it is okay.) - Hall of Signatures

Note). For cleaning only the pen with cartridge ink, the front rod should be placed under the faucet to rinse, and the pen can be dried with facial paper after washing.

Note: If the color changes or the water is not smooth when writing, please repeat the above actions, if the situation is not improved, you can send the pen for repair.

3) In order to avoid the deterioration of all parts of the fountain pen and the ink, the fountain pen should be placed in a cool place, not a high temperature place.

4) Since the design of the tongue and nib is related to the composition of the ink, it is recommended to use the original ink, and avoid mixing the two inks (when changing the ink color, the original ink must be removed); Avoid using ink that is more than one year old.

5) When using, the cap should be put on the barrel of the pen, on the one hand, it can prevent the pen from rolling and falling, on the other hand, even if it falls, it will not be broken because of the light front and heavy back; After use, you should cover the cap of the pen in time, even if it is only for a few minutes, so as to prevent the ink from being quickly dried and solidified in the pen, resulting in poor water - most of the pen blockage phenomenon is caused by this reason, don't be lazy.

6) When writing, some manuscript paper should be padded under the paper to enhance the elasticity of the nib and reduce friction. Do not write on hard materials such as metal to prevent damage to the nib.

7) When the fountain pen is not used for a long time (more than one month), it should be thoroughly cleaned and dried with warm water before collection, so as to avoid the ink drying and stagnation, or even causing corrosion damage.

8) The correct way to enter the ink.

Spin out the water-absorbing piston rod at the end of the barrel as much as possible.

Place the nib in the ink and completely submerge the nib to avoid inhaling air.

After absorbing the ink, place the nib downwards and release six to eight drops of ink.

Tighten the piston lever with the nib facing upwards to allow the remaining ink from the tongue to flow back into the reservoir.

Wipe the nib and tongue around the pen tip with tissue paper to complete the ink insertion procedure.

9) The fitting place between the nib and the tongue of the pen, due to frequent use, often accumulates some paper scraps, at this time, you can gently brush off with a soft brush, do not use too much force, it is easy to cause damage to the nib.

10) Generally speaking, each person's writing strength, pen angle, and pen holding posture are many different, so it is best to avoid lending the pen to others.

Hehehehehe. A leaky fountain pen is a sign that it is broken. You can buy a new one.

The most effective way: Never ink!

It's so professional, isn't it?

The main thing is the quality of the pen, a small part may be that the ink fluidity is too large, change to a pen with a *** point,Hero penOverall good, but unfortunately the quality control is too poor, it is recommended to change the Japanese pen to use, 78g is good, buy more than 40 pieces online, you can try.

It could also be due to a broken pen or a poor quality ink. The second is that because the pen nib for writing has a long service life, it will become more leaky.

Pen usage tips.

One of the characteristics of the gold tip of fountain pens is that they have a better soft elasticity than steel nibs due to the different materials. The soft finger gold tip is softer than the steel tip, and with the same strength of writing, the shape of the gold tip is large, and it can write rich changes in the thickness of strokes; The elastic not only refers to the better elasticity of the gold tip, but also refers to the greater deformation limit of the gold tip.

If the nib is bent to a large extent, the nib may not be able to reset, resulting in a bifurcation of the pen, while the gold tip can still be reset to continue writing. The elasticity of the gold tip gives us a writing experience that surpasses that of the steel tip. However, this elasticity can be compensated for with a little trick, allowing the steel tip to express a rich variation in stroke thickness.

Putting old newspapers, mouse pads, and silicone pads under the writing paper can all enhance the writing performance of the steel-niped pen. If the performance of the old newspaper is mediocre, the mouse pad is eye-catching, and the silicone pad will bring us a huge surprise: the silicone pad is used to write, even with a steel tip, it is not lost to the gold tip at all, and the degree of soft bullet is amazing.

Hello, 1. Replace the ink. This method is safe and effective (the effective rate is not 100%), and the ink with high fluidity should be used as much as possible. 2. Remove the nib, then sew the water on the nib to turn it off and reinstall it.

Check for air leaks at the junction between the pen and the pen. Air leakage can cause too much ink, too fast, or even cause ink to leak.

1. When the opening of the ink applicator or ink gall is not firmly inserted into the pen grip and does not form a sealed environment, it is easy to cause the pen to ink too much. At this time, you can check the ink on the pen The connection between the ink cartridge and the pen grip can be seen to see if it is loose, if there is, it can be re-fixed, or replaced with a new one.

2. In the process of using the fountain pen, non-standard use will lead to some slight damage, such as the middle seam of the pen tip becomes larger, the middle seam will become larger, and the ink flow will increase, tightening the middle seam can reduce the degree of ink of the pen to a certain extent, wrap the pen nib with cloth, grasp both sides of the nib with your fingertips, squeeze it hard for 5 10 seconds, repeat the steps according to the situation of the model, adjust the middle seam to the appropriate degree, and the degree of ink of the fountain pen will also be improved.

Maintain a comfortable temperature.

If the pen is often stored in a high temperature environment, the expansion of the air inside the pen will cause the ink to be squeezed and discharged from the nib.

Therefore, if you carry a pen in your pocket, your body temperature may cause too much water to run while writing, or even ink leakage.

Therefore, it is recommended to prepare a pen case for storage and then carry it with you, which not only prevents the pen from wearing, but also prevents ink leakage.

Check the pen. When the opening of the ink applicator or ink cartridge is not firmly inserted into the pen grip, and a sealed environment is not formed, it is easy to cause excessive ink in the pen.

At this time, you can check the ink applicator of the fountain pen The connection between the ink gall and the pen grip can be seen to see if there is any looseness.

If there is, it can be re-fixed, or replaced with a new one.

Tighten the middle seam of the nib.

During the use of the fountain pen, irregular use will lead to some minor damage, such as the enlargement of the slit in the nib.

A larger seam will also lead to an increase in ink flow, and tightening the seam can reduce the amount of ink in the pen to a certain extent.

Wrap the nib with a cloth, grasp both sides of the nib with your fingertips, squeeze firmly for 5 10 seconds, and repeat the steps as appropriate.

By adjusting the seam to a suitable level, the ink level of the pen will also be improved.

Replace the ink. To save the pen when writing with broken ink and white flying, consider using a moister ink.

In the same way, if the fountain pen has too much water, you can also replace the ink with ink with a controlled drainage, which can be understood as the ink with low fluidity.

If your pen also has the problem of too much ink, you can combine the situation you have encountered, and adjust the placement, parts and ink of the pen appropriately according to the above methods.

The reasons are guessed as follows:

1. Use the inking device to apply the ink, and there is no plugging in tightly, or the inking device is leaking, or the pen grip is cracked. The ink is slowly leaking. It is advisable to check it out.

2. Using the pen barrel inking, piston, vacuum inking, etc., the hand heats the air inside, and the air expands to squeeze out the ink. It is recommended to fill it as much as possible without leaving air.

**Stained by ink, there are many ways to remove: 1. Stained with ink, new traces can be scrubbed with general detergent; Aged traces can be soaked in 2% oxalic acid solution first, a few minutes and then scrubbed. 2. The soup cooked with rice can be washed off, and then rubbed with laundry detergent to clean it.

3. The simplest is to rinse repeatedly with soap.

Question: What is the cause of ink leakage on my hands?

This may be due to improper assembly and excessive gaps, or the ink leakage caused by dark cracks and air leakage in the capillary pen; If it is not caused by the day after tomorrow, then it should be sent back to the place of origin for maintenance in time, which is a quality problem. It may also be because the ink on the pen is leaking, the tongue and nib are not in good contact, the water is uneven, and the pen is blocked; It is more common in pistons and inking, where the hand heats the air above the barrel and squeezes the ink out. Additional Information:

Use and maintenance of fountain pens: When writing, some manuscript paper should be padded under the paper to enhance the elasticity of the nib and reduce friction. Do not write on hard materials such as metal to prevent damage to the nib.

Avoid mixing different inks in daily use, so as not to cause sediment and clog the fountain pen. The fountain pen should be cleaned once a month or so to keep the ink flowing smoothly, if carbon ink is used, it should be cleaned more often. If the pen is not used for a long time, it should be washed and stored.

And don't overexert yourself when writing.

1. Pour the ink clean and there will be no more ink leakage.

2. Find the place where the ink leaks, if it is not glued well, it should be glued well after washing, if there is a crack, it will not be saved.

3. Under normal circumstances, this kind of pen is not repairable.

Caused by good air tightness, ink leakage is the principle of cold shrinkage caused by thermal expansion. You try to drill a small hole in the cap of the pen and try the Kuan Envy.

Summary. Dear, hello, I'm glad to answer for you, the pen will inexplicably leak ink because the nib ink guide groove is blocked, so the pen will leak.

Dear, hello, I'm glad to answer for you, the pen will inexplicably leak ink because the nib ink guide groove is blocked, so the pen will leak.

Dear, you need to remove the nib, soak it in warm water for 30 minutes to 1 hour, then wipe it dry, and you can generally use it normally after installation.

Dear, the fountain pen also needs regular maintenance, regularly remove the ink residue of the pen nib, the position of the pen nib and the seal of the pen nib and the pen tongue, it is often easy to accumulate some ink residue, which needs to be cleaned regularly. You can soak it in water, and then gently wash it with a soft-bristled brush, paying attention to the strength and not damaging the nib. And remember to wash it well.

The pen barrel stores ink and the pen will leak ink。It is possible to use the pen barrel to fill ink, piston, vacuum ink, etc., and heat the pen with your hand to expand the air above the pen barrel to squeeze out the ink. It is recommended to fill it as much as possible without leaving air.

It may also be that the gap is too large due to improper assembly, or the ink spills caused by a dark crack or air leakage in the capillary pen.

Causes and maintenance of ink leakage at the nib

The nib of the pen has been disassembled, but it is not installed, or the capillary is damaged, and the nib and the pen grip are damaged, such as cracking, and there is a problem with the ink applicator or ink sac of the fountain pen, which is more likely, and there is a lack of detailed information, and it is impossible to judge the solution, replace the inking device, disassemble the pen, reassemble it, and replace it with a new fountain pen.

When writing, some manuscript paper should be padded under the paper to enhance the elasticity of the nib and reduce friction. Do not write on hard materials such as metal to prevent damage to the nib. Avoid mixing different inks in daily use, so as not to cause sediment and clog the fountain pen.

The fountain pen should be cleaned regularly, and the normal use should be every three months, every ten days and half a month, every month or so, etc., thoroughly cleaned with warm water to keep the ink smooth, such as the use of carbon ink should be cleaned more.

If the pen is not used for a long time, it should be washed and stored. And don't overexert yourself when writing. Generally, when cleaning, you can repeatedly absorb and drain water until the discharged water is clean, and then wipe it dry.

If you are cleaning at long intervals or if you intend to wash and seal the pen, you need to disassemble the parts and wash them separately.

Will leak,The way to avoid it is to fill up the ink, don't just suck half of the air and half of the air, when there is more air left in the ink absorber, the volume change caused by the change of air pressure in the air column will be relatively large, and it is easier to push the ink out of the pen.

Water loading ink storage mechanism.

Water loading ink storage mechanism includes drip type inking, cassette ink tube, piston inking, ink absorber, pressure bladder inking, lever inking, coin inking, etc.

The ink of the drop-in type ink is directly stored in the pen barrel behind the grip, and the ink is directly injected into the pen barrel with the dropper when the ink is replenished, which has the advantage of large ink storage capacity, and the disadvantage is that it is easy to cause pollution due to ink seepage.

The cartridge ink tube is to encapsulate the ink in a closed ink tube, and then install it behind the grip when used, and use the ink guide tube protruding from the back of the grip to puncture the seal of the ink tube, or open the beads that close the ink tube to allow the ink to flow along the ink guide tube to the nib.

If the pen leaks as soon as the cap is opened, it may be that the air hole on the cap is blocked. A pricking with a needle will improve the situation.

How to choose a fountain pen?

1. Pick the nib.

A fountain pen, the nib is generally divided into bright tip and dark tip, and can also be subdivided into dark tip, semi-bright tip, bright tip, bag tip and calligraphy tip (bag tip calligraphy tip is not commonly used), it is very complicated to say, compare the physical picture to see the little cuties must understand in seconds, these types we have used.

Generally speaking, bright tips are softer to write, while dark tips are harder. The bright tip is easy to achieve the effect of soft bullets, and the dark tip is easier to achieve the effect of hard and slippery, if you write a lot of daily work, the dark tip is more recommended, but if it is signed by the leader, you naturally need a cool and domineering bright tip.

Second, look at the material.

The nib of the fountain pen can be divided into two kinds according to the material: steel tip and gold tip, in general, the steel tip is hard, the gold tip is soft and hard, the writing feeling is inferior to the gold tip, but the writing effect is almost the same, so which one is suitable for you? You might as well let the steel tip and gold tip pk.
