Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to a braille printing system and a braille printing method using the same and. More particularly, it relates to a braille printing system and a braille printing method using the same, the braille printing system enhancing braille printing speed with a double print head structure and enhancing completion of braille printed on paper by heating the paper.
  • JP 2006-235264 A there is known a Braille embossing apparatus for performing embossing of Braille on an object to be embossed wherein quality in processing and efficiency in manufacturing is improved by making it possible to emboss hard-to-break Braille continuously and in large quantity.
  • the Braille embossing apparatus is so constituted that: an impression cylinder is arranged opposite to a printing cylinder with continuous paper in between; projecting parts corresponding to Braille information are formed on the roll surface of the printing cylinder; and the impression cylinder is rotated together with the printing cylinder.
  • An elastic member of prescribed stiffness is provided on the roll surface of the impression cylinder, and the radius of the impression cylinder to the surface of the elastic member is made different from the radius of the printing cylinder to the roll surface.
  • braille is a system of embossed dots that are raised from the surface paper or a plane surface, and is used as a writing system for persons who are visually impaired.
  • Braille has a unique character system that is different from general written or printed letters expressed with dots and lines. That is, braille expresses letters and marks with braille cells that consist of big and small embossed dots, wherein the number of the embossed dots is equal to or less than six.
  • braille expresses letters and marks with braille cells that consist of big and small embossed dots, wherein the number of the embossed dots is equal to or less than six.
  • countries using phonetic alphabets use braille in accordance with the letters of their alphabets.
  • the first method is one using a slate having braille cells and using a stylus that looks like an awl to punch paper that is thicker than normal paper.
  • the pressing method is usually applied to produce a simple braille document.
  • braille paper is inserted into a press having a press board in which embossed dots expressing letters, symbols, or marks are arranged, and the braille paper is pressed under a pressure which avoids penetrating the braille paper.
  • the second method which is widely used in recent years, is one using a computer-controlled braille printer.
  • the braille printer uses a computer, which has a large storage capacity and fast processing speed. Therefore, it is convenient to correct errors, and the speed of producing braille printed materials is relatively fast.
  • the pressing method for printing braille is widely used because the pressing method has advantages, such as high quality of braille printing, no limitations on size and quality of paper, and the ability for the use of ink text with braille.
  • the limitations are common problems of printing braille.
  • a printing plate for the pressing method is not standardized, but it is generally the same size as A4 paper.
  • a conventional printing plate is made of zinc, and recently, is made of aluminum.
  • a braille embosser has two printing plates fixed thereto, and punches the two printing plates based on a manuscript. Paper is inserted into a space between the two printing plates, and passes through a press roller, thereby printing braille on the paper.
  • a conventional braille embosser is classified into a manual braille embosser and an automatic braille embosser according to the method of printing braille.
  • a braille character contains six embossed dots.
  • the automatic braille embosser automatically prints braille stored in a braille translating computer program.
  • the manual braille embosser prints braille by a person inputting braille characters one by one with a braille input device.
  • a braille embosser using both the manual and automatic methods is also widely used.
  • a conventional automatic braille embosser is unable to control the intervals of the rows and columns. Therefore, when printing braille on paper having ink text, the braille and the ink text can be printed at the same position or ink text can be damaged. Consequently, the braille can interfere with the ink text thus making it difficult to read the ink text.
  • the conventional automatic braille embosser limits the range of printed items, such as business cards, illustrations, pictures, etc.
  • the manual braille embosser prints braille by a person inputting braille characters one by one. Therefore, when printing braille on paper with ink text, the braille can be printed based on positions of the ink text having various intervals of rows and columns. In addition, the braille can be printed without interfering with the ink text.
  • braille printed materials having a braille height of about 0.2 ⁇ 0.3 mm are unstable when printed by only pressing paper without heating the paper. Therefore, the braille embossment is easily worn out and is pressed down due to frequent use. As time passes, it is difficult to read the braille, and value of the braille printed materials decreases.
  • a braille printing device or a braille printing system that can print braille quickly and can enhance quality of braille printed materials by ensuring durability of the braille is required.
  • Patent Document 1 Korean Patent No. 10-1359522 (29 January 2014 ).
  • the system can enhance braille printing speed by heating paper on which braille is to be printed.
  • the braille printing system can enhance braille printing quality by heating the paper.
  • the braille printed material is easy for a braille reader to read by printing braille higher.
  • the braille printing system can maintain durability and the height of the braille regardless of thickness of the paper.
  • the braille printed material can compensate for defects such as that braille of a conventional braille printed material is easily pressed down as time passes and is vulnerable to moisture or water, etc., by simultaneously heating and compressing a surface of the paper.
  • the braille printing method can enhance braille printing speed by using the double print head structure, and can enhance completion of braille printed on paper by heating the paper, thereby reducing work time and enhancing printing work efficiency.
  • the braille printed material can have good durability and is easy to read, thereby maintaining quality of the braille printed material despite frequent use.
