## Background
RELATED APPLICATIONS
The present invention was first described in and claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/125,316, filed Apr. 25, 2008, the entire disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.


FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates generally to writing devices and, more particularly, to a writing device one end adapted for use as a pen and an opposite end adapted for use as a highlighter having a combined bookmarking device.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
There are many instances while reading a book that a writing instrument is desired, such as when a margin note needs to be made or several words or lines need to be highlighted. This is especially useful for students, teachers, and professionals of all ages. Many times a person my elect to not make these marks or notes since they lack an available proper writing implement, which can lead to retention levels or grades suffering. The lack of having the proper writing implement is commonly due to the need to carry numerous types of writing devices along with the book itself. If the various writing instruments are carried loose or in a pocket, they may become lost, misplaced, or stolen.
Similar problems exist when marking a page in a book. Scraps of papers are often used as make-shift bookmarks, page corners are folded, as well as many other methods are attempted, but none of these solutions beats the functionality or efficiency of a real bookmark.
Various attempts have been made in the past to overcome these disadvantages and provide a means of providing bookmarks, pencil holders, combined writing implements, and the like. None of the prior attempts to solve the problems often encountered by a hurried student or professional have addressed the combination of disadvantages. Among the relevant attempts to address these problems are several U.S. patents.
U.S. Pat. No. 155,196, issued in the name of McNair, describes a compound implement consisting of a bookmark, a blade, a clamp, and a pencil holder having a sufficient spring to hold the blade and the clamp together on the pages of a book.
U.S. Pat. No. 2,300,216, issued in the name of Grodsky et al., describes a bookmark comprising a combined bookmark and pencil holder consisting of a strip of flexible material that is bent having an upper loop to receive the pencil and two (2) flat contiguous leg members that engage the pages of a book.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,733,139, issued in the name of Neidhardt et al., describes a dual writing instrument comprising a central body with open end portions adapted to removably receive end bodies comprising a disposable ink cartridge for use as a ball point pen and a writing fluid chamber for use as a felt tip pen.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,006,693, issued in the name of Burkett, describes a bookmark with highlighter pen comprising a narrow elongated bookmark portion with an enlarged highlighter pen on an upper end and a highlighter cap. The bookmark can be oriented between pages or used as a highlighter while reading.
U.S. Published Application number 2002/0139291, published in the name of Roundy, describes an ultimate bookmark comprising a rectangular body with detailed page finding markers which provides up to eight (8) page markers.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,829,903, issued in the name of Collins, describes a writing implement and cap therefore having an integral bookmark comprising a ball point pen end, a highlighter pen end, a pen cap, and a highlighter cap having an integral blade portion with functions as a bookmark device that is slidably received between book pages at the spine end of the book.
Additionally, ornamental designs for writing instruments and bookmarks exist, particularly, U.S. Pat. No. D 279,992; D 322,811; D 355,933; D 429,499 and D 452,270. However, none of these designs are similar to the present invention.
While these devices fulfill their respective, particular objectives, each of these references suffers from one (1) or more of the aforementioned disadvantages. Accordingly, there is a need for a means by which the functionality of a pen, a highlighter, and a bookmark can be provided in a common device. The development of the present invention herein described substantially departs from the conventional solutions and in doing so fulfills this need.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In view of the foregoing references, the inventor recognized the aforementioned inherent problems and observed that there is a need for a means to provide for various kinds of writing implements and a bookmarking in a single convenient device which when used as a bookmark does not interfere with the profile of a book when opened or closed and thus, the object of the present invention is to solve the aforementioned disadvantages.
To achieve the above objectives, it is an object of the present invention to provide a pen and highlighter assembly with a retractable bookmark that combines the functions of a writing pen, a highlighter, and a bookmark into a single combined device.
Another object of the device is to provide a body, a pen portion, a highlighter portion, a pen cap, a molded pocket clasp, a connection cord, a recoil mechanism, and a plurality of bookmark assemblies.
Yet still another object of the device is to provide a a double-ended writing instrument having a first end comprising a ball point pen and a second end comprising a color highlighter. Both the pen and highlighter comprise disposable and replaceable marking tips and ink cartridges, thereby enabling a user to refill the device as desired and with different color inks.
Yet still another object of the device is to provide a pen cap portion comprising a pocket clasp and a plurality of interchangeable bookmark assemblies that are tethered to the cap portion and that depict various indicia such as a charm, a school or corporate logo, a sports team logo, an entertainment or musical icon, and the like. A thin retractable cord connects the bookmark assembly to the cap portion providing a recoiling mechanism within the pen cap. The cord and the attached bookmark assembly can be used to mark a page in a book while the bookmark assembly hangs out from the bottom portion of the book.
Yet still another object of the device is to provide a retractable connection cord that is connected to a closed end of the pen cap and that provides a means to removably attach a plurality of interchangeable bookmark assemblies.
Yet still another object of the device is to provide a recoil assembly located within the pen cap that provides a spring-loaded means of retracting the connection cord into the pen cap when use as a bookmark is not needed.
Yet still another object of the device is to provide a plurality of bookmark assemblies comprising a two-sided folded enclosure that is mechanically affixed to a distal end of the connection cord.
Yet still another object of the device is to provide a dual-purpose writing means and a retractable bookmarking means that can be conveniently carried in a pocket, pen or pencil holder, or the like which is especially convenient to a user during studying or other professional work.
