Description

Electric fan using braille for the blind}

The present invention relates to a fan, and in particular, in the operation control unit consisting of a button unit and a display unit for operating the fan and displaying its operation state, each button unit protruding the braille so that the visually impaired can be confirmed by the touch In addition, each of the display unit is provided with a light emitting lamp, when the button is pressed, the lamp of the corresponding display unit flashes to indicate the operating state, it relates to a braille application fan that can be used conveniently for the general user as well as the visually impaired. .

In recent years, welfare policies for the disabled have been developed, and social awareness of the general public has also been converted accordingly, and many kinds of household goods and general home appliances have been developed and sold with special devices for the disabled.

However, in general, the fan is a structure in which the wing is rotated, so that there is an element that can cause a safety accident due to entering the hand during use, it is particularly difficult for the visually impaired, and when the fan is operated, wind noise is generated accordingly. The use of auditory judgment elements used in various assistive devices for people with disabilities is unreasonable.

Therefore, easy operation of the operation button is essential to use various functions of the fan, but it is difficult for the visually impaired to operate the operation button of the general fan.

The present invention is to solve such a conventional problem, by forming a protruding braille on a plurality of operation buttons provided in the fan operation control unit, by installing a lamp on the various display unit indicating the operation state of the fan by the operation button It is an object of the present invention to provide a braille application fan that can be conveniently used by the general user as well as the visually impaired by emitting a corresponding display unit by operating the operation button.

Braille application fan of the present invention for achieving the above object in the fan consisting of a blade for generating wind, a support for supporting the fan body not to fall, and a rotating portion for connecting the support so that the blade is rotated left and right, The operation button to turn on / off the operation, the time reservation button to set the operation time of the fan, the rotation control button to operate the fan's rotation / stop state, and the wind speed control button to control the wind speed of the fan A button unit protruding the braille; And a time display unit to switch time each time the time reservation button is pressed, a wind speed display unit to be switched each time the wind speed control button is pressed, and a power display unit to display the operation or stop state of the fan each time the operation button is pressed. Characterized in that the operation control unit consisting of a display unit provided with a light-emitting lamp flashing to display the state of.

Hereinafter, described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings an embodiment of the braille application fan according to the present invention.

1 is a perspective view showing a fan to which the present invention is applied, and FIG. 2 is a view showing an operation control unit of the fan according to the present invention.

1 and 2, the braille application fan of the present invention has a wing portion 220 is formed on the upper portion to provide a cool wind around by the rotation of the blades inside, like the conventional fan, the outside of the The safety cover 210 is firmly installed in a form surrounding the wing 220 to prevent a safety accident in which a hand is injured or hurt by the wing of the wing 220, and a fan 200 is provided at the bottom thereof. A support 240 having a predetermined width is formed so as not to fall.

At this time, the safety cover 210 is installed on the outside of the wing 220 is formed twice or more densely compared to a conventional fan to prevent the blind or children's hands from entering the wing to prevent safety accidents.

The wing unit 220 and the support unit 240 are connected to each other by a rotating unit 230 formed in a long column shape to enable the rotation and height adjustment, the front of the support unit 240 to operate the fan 200 and various The operation control unit 100 is formed to adjust the operation state.

The operation control unit 100 of the present invention applied to the fan of this type is composed of a plurality of button units for controlling the operation of the fan 200, and a plurality of display units indicating the operation state of the fan 200 by the operation of the button unit. do.

The button unit operation button 10 for turning on / off the operation of the fan 200, a time reservation button 20 for setting a time to stop after the operation only for a predetermined time, and the rotation / stop state of the fan 200 Rotation control button 30 for manipulating, and the wind speed control button 40 for adjusting the strength and weakness of the wind speed generated when the fan 200 is operated, the upper surface of all the buttons, the braille means a letter corresponding to each ( For example, the operation button 10 'power', the time reservation button 20 'time', the rotation control button 30 'rotation', the wind speed control button 40 'strong' is embossed By being separated and protruding, the visually impaired person who uses the fan 200 can conveniently operate the state of the fan 200 by the touch as with the general public.

In addition, the display unit time display unit 50a (50b) and 50c to display the time to be switched each time the visually impaired person presses the time reservation button 20, and the wind speed that is switched each time the wind speed control button 40 is pressed The wind speed display unit 60a (60b) for displaying a, and the power display unit 70 for displaying the operation or stop switching every time the operation button 10 is pressed, each display unit is provided with a light emitting lamp is installed By operation of the part, the lamp of the corresponding display part blinks to indicate an operation state.

Referring to the operation method of the braille applied fan configured as described above in detail as follows.

First, when the user who is visually impaired feels the braille engraved on the operation button 10 formed in the operation switch unit 100 by touching, the fan 200 is operated to generate a cold wind. If you want to book a time, the time is pressed while feeling the braille engraved on the time reservation button 20. Therefore, each time the time reservation button 20 is pressed, the set time is switched, and the flashing operation of the light emitting lamps configured in the time display units 50a, 50b, and 50c is continuously performed to display the set time.

In the same manner, the visually impaired person may press the wind speed control button 40 and the operation button 10 every time the light emitting lamps of the wind speed display unit 60a and 60b and the power display unit 70 blink continuously to determine whether or not the set wind speed and operation are performed. Will be displayed.

The present invention described above has been described with reference to specific embodiments, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and modifications and variations are possible within the scope of the basic idea of the present invention.

As described above, the braille applying fan according to the present invention protrudes the braille for the visually impaired in a plurality of button units provided in the operation control unit, and the light emitting lamp of the corresponding display unit blinks and displays according to the operation of the button unit. By doing so, the general user as well as the visually impaired has an excellent effect that can easily use the fan.
