	Pencil sharpener with acoustical and lamplight indicating effect - Patent 5161587
		The present invention is directed to a pencil sharpener that incorporates a conductive sharpening blade element for sharpening the pencil wherein the blade element is positioned along an inner wall surface of a bore hole so as to contact an outer surface of the pencil.
		This invention uses primarily pencil lead, namely the pencil nib appearing outwardly after sharpening, to contact the blade and a conductive leaf spring for the electrical connection that makes the musical IC (buzzer) and the indicating lamp which were pre-set inside the pencil sharpener produce nursery rhyme-like sound and lamplight indication, respectively.
		The general object of this invention is to provide a pencil sharpener having an acoustical effect and lamplight indication, for enabling school-age children to indirectly enhance their studying and knowledge pursuit.

	Pencil Sharpeners
		While a handful of mechanical pencil sharpeners were patented in the U.S. between 1860 and 1880, scores of machines were introduced between 1884 and 1915.
		During this three-decade period, commercially successful mechanical sharpeners embodied a wide variety of approaches to the central problems involved in sharpening a pencil, namely, to remove wood from the point and sharpen the lead, and either to rotate the pencil or to rotate the cutter around the pencil, all without breaking the lead.
		We also have an exhibit covering electric pencil sharpeners, and an exhibit of pencil sharpener imposters or machines that are sometimes incorrectly identified as pencil sharpeners.
