Abstract

The present invention offers a device for fixing a writing or coating member in a writing or coating tool for a liquid composition, such as a writing brush, comprising a main body with a hole having an inner diameter smaller than the outer diameter of a plate portion provided at the rear end of the writing or coating member, a cutaway communicating from one side fringe of the main body to the hole with tapered side lines, a bow-shape leaf spring portion which is protruded from the fringe side opposite to the cutaway of the main body and lapped in such a manner that an intermediate portion approaches substantially in contact with the side face of the main body while its top end being maintained apart from the side face of the main body by a distance larger than the distance of a nearest approached portion, and 2 leg plates which are protruded from both the other fringes of the main body substantially vertically to the plane of the main body, and in the side opposite to the side where the leaf spring is located, while tops of the leg plates being slightly separated and bent oppositely and outwardly.
