1. An electronic pen comprising:
a rod-shaped core body having conductivity;
a pen pressure transmitter which is connected to the core body and has conductivity and which, in operation, transmits a pen pressure applied to the core body to a pen pressure detector; and
a signal transmitter which, in operation, generates a signal to be transmitted from the core body,
wherein the pen pressure transmitter includes a shock-absorbing mechanism which, in operation, when the pen pressure applied to the core body has a predetermined value or more, absorbs the pen pressure,
wherein the shock-absorbing mechanism of the pen pressure transmitter includes:
a cylinder portion connected to the pen pressure detector,
a shaft portion including a piston portion inserted into the cylinder portion and a core body holding portion,
a core body holding member fixed to the core body holding portion of the shaft portion and keeping a rear end side of the core body held inside the core body holding portion, and
an elastic body disposed between the cylinder portion and the core body holding portion of the shaft portion, and
wherein the elastic body keeps a constant distance between the cylinder portion and the shaft portion while the pen pressure applied to the core body does not exceed the predetermined value, and
wherein the signal from the signal transmitter, in operation, is supplied to the core body through the pen pressure transmitter and transmitted to an outside of the electronic pen through the core body.
