The ''crescent filler'' is based on the realization of a particular pressure bar on which a metal crescent shaped bow is welded (from which derives the name given to the system by its inventor). The bow comes out of the body of the pen through a side slit made on the shaft of the same. By pressing on the headband you can directly compress the sac and thus quickly and easily fill the pen. | The ''crescent filler'' is based on the realization of a particular pressure bar on which a metal crescent shaped bow is welded (from which derives the name given to the system by its inventor).

Il sistema era semplice ed efficace, e consentiva anche un caricamento migliore rispetto al successivo [[caricamento a levetta|riempimento a levetta]], in quanto si poteva comprimere completamente il serbatoio di gomma. Nonostante la sua superiorità tecnica però, la sporgenza dell'archetto dal corpo della penna risultava parecchio sgradevole dal punto di vista estetico, e questo ne decretò l'inesorabile declino.<noinclude> | Il sistema era semplice ed efficace, e consentiva anche un caricamento migliore rispetto al successivo [[caricamento a levetta|riempimento a levetta]], in quanto si poteva comprimere completamente il serbatoio di gomma.

The first truly efficient and functional automatic filling system based on the compression of a rubber tank was the famous crescent filler, designed by Roy Conklin' who patented it in 1901 (nº US-685258), which was introduced to the market by the company of the same name founded by him, the first example of the success of a brand due to the invention of an innovative filling mechanism.
