Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a manufacturing method for a display unit that can display as accurately as indicated in a desired layout drawing and easily and without requiring any special skills. SOLUTION: A layout drawing consisting of characters, figures, symbols and the like to be indicated on a display screen of a display unit is compiled using a personal computer 1, and the layout data are stored in a memory device 2 of a file server and the like. And then the layout data are input into a cutting plotter 3 and a ruling plotter 4, respectively from the memory device 2. The cutting plotter 3 cuts out characters, figures, symbols and the like to be pasted on the display from display materials based on the layout data. The ruling plotter 4 rules the shapes of characters, figures, symbols and the like on the display based on the layout data. The cut out characters, figures, symbols and the like are pasted to fit to the ruled lines written on the display.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a display device which is mainly used as a display board for displaying traffic signs and the like and for guiding and displaying the locations and directions of various facilities.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A display device such as a display board having various displays on a display surface using characters, figures, symbols, etc. is used for displaying traffic signs and the like and for guiding and displaying the locations and directions of various facilities. And around various facilities. Conventionally,
As a method of manufacturing such a display device, a layout diagram composed of characters, figures, symbols, and the like as a display to be provided on a display surface is drawn, and a display material such as a sheet is manually processed or cut based on the layout diagram. Cutting with a plotter, etc., cut out the characters, figures, symbols, etc. to be pasted on the display surface, while the display surface shows the cut out characters,
A ruled line for pasting a figure, a symbol, or the like at a predetermined position is scribed, and characters, figures, symbols, and the like cut out along the ruled line are pasted.

[0003]

However, in the above-described method, since the scribing work is generally performed manually, the cut-out characters, figures, symbols, etc., and the scoring lines drawn on the display surface are not included. Is difficult to completely match, it is difficult to provide an accurate display according to a desired layout diagram, and this requires a skill.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems and to provide a method of manufacturing a display device capable of easily performing a display accurately and as required without skill as shown in a desired layout diagram. It is.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention has the following arrangement. That is, in the method of manufacturing a display device according to the present invention, a layout diagram composed of characters, graphics, symbols, and the like as a display to be provided on the display surface of the display device is drawn by a personal computer, and the layout data is stored in a file server or the like. The layout data is stored in the storage device, and the layout data is input to the cutting plotter and the plotting plotter from the storage device. The cutting plotter displays characters, graphics, symbols, and the like to be pasted on the display surface based on the layout data. In the cutout and score plotter, based on the layout data, the shapes of the characters, figures, symbols, etc. are marked on the display surface, and the characters, figures, symbols, etc. cut out in accordance with the scored line are drawn. It is characterized by sticking.

According to the present invention, since the cutting plotter and the plotting plotter are operated by one layout data, the characters, figures, symbols, etc. cut out by the cutting plotter are plotted on the display surface by the plotting plotter. And the scored line completely match. Therefore, it is easy and accurate to paste the cut-out characters, figures, symbols, and the like in accordance with the ruled lines, so that accurate display can be performed according to a desired layout diagram and skill is required. Not even.

[0007]

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic block diagram of a method for manufacturing a display panel according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view showing an embodiment of a display device manufactured according to the present invention.

In the drawings, reference numeral 1 denotes a display surface B of a display device A.
And a storage device 2 such as a file server for storing layout data of the layout diagram drawn by the personal computer 1. is there.

The storage device 2 may be built in a personal computer 1 for drawing a layout diagram, or layout data drawn by a remote personal computer 1 is stored in the storage device 2 using a computer network. It may be made as follows.

Reference numeral 3 denotes a cutting plotter, and reference numeral 4 denotes a score plotter. The layout data stored in the storage device 2 is input to the cutting plotter 3 and the score plotter 4, respectively.

Then, by the cutting plotter 3,
Based on the layout data, characters, graphics, symbols, etc. C to be pasted on the display surface B are cut out from the display material,
Further, the shape of the characters, graphics, symbols, etc. C is marked on the display surface B as a ruled line D based on the layout data by the ruled plotter 4. A sheet material is generally used as the display material, and a reflection sheet material is preferably used.

The characters C, graphics, symbols, etc., cut out by the cutting plotter 3 in this manner are converted into the scribe lines D on the display surface B scribed by the scribe plotter 4.
Paste according to.

As described above, according to the above-described embodiment, the cutting plotter 3 and the score plotter 4 are cut out and scored by one layout data, so that the characters, figures, symbols, etc. cut out by the cutting plotter 3 can be obtained. C and the ruled line D drawn on the display surface B by the ruled plotter 4 completely match, and the cut out characters, figures, symbols, etc. C are pasted in accordance with the ruled line D drawn. , It is easy and accurate, so that an accurate display according to a desired layout diagram can be performed, and no skill is required.

The display device A manufactured according to the present invention may be a display plate installed on a road, the periphery of various facilities, or the like, or a road surface display provided on the road surface using the display surface B as a road surface. And the form is not particularly limited.

[0015]

According to the present invention, the characters, graphics, symbols, etc. cut out by the cutting plotter match the ruled lines on the display surface marked by the rule plotter.
By simply pasting the cut-out characters, figures, symbols, etc., in accordance with the ruled lines, the display can be made exactly as desired in the layout diagram, and no skill is required.
