As a means for solving the aforementioned problems, the present invention is to provide a playing card, which is characterized by visually displaying a mark portion formed by a suit color and a card size on a single-sided display surface, and forming a corresponding correspondence with the suit color and the card. The surface-sized tactile recognition portion is a protrusion formed of a translucent material.

As a means for solving the foregoing problems, the present invention provides a playing card, which is characterized by: The one-sided display surface visually displays a mark portion formed by a suit color and a card size, and a tactile recognition portion corresponding to the suit color and the card size is formed. The tactile recognition portion is the same color as the background color of the formed position. The protrusions are formed.

With such a configuration, even a visually impaired person can recognize the suit and size of a playing card by a tactile recognition portion formed by a protrusion formed on a single-sided display surface. In addition, since the tactile recognition portion is made of a light-transmitting material or the same color as the background color, the visibility of the marking portion may not be hindered. Therefore, the visually impaired and the able-bodied can happily play a game derived from playing cards.

The sign portion and the background of the one-sided display surface are ideally configured to be recognizable by the visually impaired. In particular, a universal design is ideal.

With this configuration, even the visually impaired person can judge the difference in suit and card size without relying on the tactile recognition section. In addition, it can be used in combination with the tactile recognition unit to further determine the suit and card size.

The identifiable structure of the amblyopia can be achieved by using the difference in contrast.

The said marking part is ideally formed by the suit color of a center part, and the size of the at least one card surface formed in a diagonal position.

With this configuration, the design of the simplified mark unit can be easily discriminated even by the visually impaired.

It is also possible to set the numbers of the aforementioned suit and the aforementioned board size inconsistently.

The tactile recognition unit is a peripheral area more than a single-sided display surface. It is desirable that the domain is formed on the inner side.

[Form for Implementing Invention]

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In addition, the following descriptions are merely examples in nature, and are not intended to limit the present invention, its applications, or its uses. In addition, the figure is a model, and the ratio of each size is different from a real person.

FIG. 1 shows a playing card 1 of the present embodiment (only the marker unit 4 described later is shown). This playing card 1 has different surface characteristics from the one-sided display surface 2 and the one-sided back surface 3. Due to the difference in surface characteristics, as long as the user touches the playing card 1, the user can easily determine whether the surface is a one-sided display surface 2 or a one-sided back surface 3. In addition, in terms of different surface characteristics, For example: change the material in the surface (for example, the surface is made of resin and the inside is made of paper); make the surface roughness different (for example, apply embossing to the surface only); or a combination thereof.

The one-sided display surface 2 is formed with a marker portion 4 and a tactile recognition portion 5.

The marking section 4 is composed of 4 types of suits 6 including "spades", "plum blossoms", "squares", and "red hearts"; and "A", "2", and "K (King)" determined by the flower. "The 13-card size 7 looks like this. Here, the mark part 4 is composed of a blank of the suit 6 in a general shape; and a blank of a card size 7 formed by numbers from 1 to 13; and the background part is displayed in different colors according to the suit. For example, "Spades" uses black as the background color; "Red hearts" uses red as the background color; "Plum" uses blue as the background color; and "Boxes" uses yellow as the background color. That is, the contrast between the background portion and the mark portion 4 is strong, and even the visually impaired can be clearly identified, and the color matching of the four types of suit colors 6 can be recognized even if the color vision is abnormal. Regardless of the difference in card size 7, only one suit 6 is displayed in the center, and the card size 7 is displayed at one of two diagonal positions. As a result, as can be seen from a normal deck, the suit 6 can be displayed much more than the case where only the number 7 on the face shows the suit 6. Therefore, even the visually impaired can easily recognize the suit 6. As described above, the unilateral display surface 2 is a general-purpose design that can be recognized by even people with low vision and people with abnormal color vision. However, the design itself is not limited to the illustrated person, and any structure can be adopted as long as it can be recognized by any of the sound person, the amblyopic person, and the person with abnormal color vision.

The tactile recognition unit 5 is shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. The recognition portion 8 is formed with a card size recognition portion 9. In addition, the tactile recognition section 5 is formed of a plurality of materials having translucency (for example, a resin material such as epoxy resin, water glass (a high-concentration sodium silicate aqueous solution), vanish water, and a woodworking adhesive). Each projection 10 is formed. The projecting portion 10 can take various forms such as a hemispherical projection 11, a linearly or curvedly connected projection 12, or a planar portion 13. The hemispherical protrusions 11 are all formed in the same shape, and may be arranged at equal intervals. The example of FIG. 3 shows a plurality of hemispherical (not hemispherical) protrusions 11 arranged along the both sides of the playing card 1 on the same line extending on both end sides. Also, the protrusion 11 is a size (height size, radius) that can be easily discerned by touching the fingers with the protruding size of the one-sided display surface 2 so that the gap between the stacked playing cards 1 is not too wide. (For example, diameter 1mm, height 0.5mm). The tactile recognition unit 5 is formed inside the predetermined size from the outer edge of the playing card 1. This is to prevent the tactile recognition unit 5 from being accidentally touched when touching the opponent's playing card 1 when playing a game with the playing card 1 and the like, and to know the suit 6 and the card size 7. Here, the tactile recognition unit 5 is formed inside a short side of the upper and lower short sides of the playing card 1 which is easy to touch, such as a card game, to a predetermined size (for example, the average value of the length of the first joint of the index finger of an adult).

FIG. 2 shows an example of the tactile recognition section 5 formed on the one-sided display surface 2.

Here, each suit identification unit 8 is provided in the following shape according to the suit 6. In other words, the "spades" are composed of a triangular portion and a straight portion extending from the central portion of the bottom surface thereof, and have a more simplified shape than ordinary spades. The triangular portion and the straight portion constitute an overall bulge. Figure As shown in 3 (a), "Plum Blossom" extends in three orthogonal directions. As shown in Fig. 3 (b), the wide size and thickness gradually increase toward the front end. As shown in 3 (c), the entire straight portion constituting the three linear portions forming an arc shape is swelled to form a more simplified shape than a normal plum. The "square" is the same shape as a normal square and is composed of a plurality of protrusions protruding in a hemispherical shape. The "red heart" is a substantially heart shape formed by a plurality of protrusions protruding from a hemispherical shape and cutting a part of a circle into a V shape.

In this way, the pattern recognition unit 8 is provided in a more simplified form than usual, except for the “block”. Therefore, not only congenital visually impaired persons but also acquired visually impaired persons can also be easily discriminated. In addition, the "square" is formed by a plurality of protrusions, and the "spade" is formed as a whole swell, and the feeling of touching with a finger is completely different. Therefore, not only the shape of the suit, but also the discrimination of the suit recognition section 8 of "square" and "spade" can be easily performed based on the difference in touch feeling when touched.

The suit recognition unit 8 and the card size recognition unit 9 are configured as follows in accordance with the difference in the card size 7.

Each suit identification section 8 is configured to reduce the size as the board sizes 7 "1" to "4", "6" to "9", and "11 (J)" to "13 (K)" increase. , "5" and "10" are the same as the smallest size. In addition, each suit identification section 8 is formed at the center section 1 at "1", "6", and "11 (J)", and "2", "7", and "12 (Q)" are They are respectively formed at the upper and lower positions on the vertical center line that divides the one-sided display surface 2 into two in the wide direction (left and right); at "3", "8", and "13 (K)", they are respectively formed 3 places on the longitudinal centerline; "4" and "9" are respectively formed on the horizontal center line in the longitudinal direction (up and down) and the width direction (left and right) and divided into two places on the horizontal center line and on the vertical center line (up to four places in total). . In addition, the three pattern recognition sections 8 other than the "square" have directionality. For example, the direction of the spade (even in the heart and the clover) with respect to the single-sided display surface 2 is as shown in Fig. 2 The first direction of the straight portion of the triangular portion (lower in the figure) (the vertex of the fixed portion of the triangular portion on the side opposite to the side where the linear portion is formed is on the upper side); and Either one of the second directions, which is the opposite direction from the first direction.

The card size 7 is "1", and the suit identification portion 8 (of the spades, hearts, and clover) is arranged in the first direction on the center portion of the one-sided display surface 2. The card size 7 is "2", and the two suit recognition portions 8 are on the vertical center line and are arranged vertically symmetrically with respect to the horizontal center line. At this time, in the three pattern recognition sections 8 other than the "square", the upper side is taken as the first direction, and the lower side is taken as the second direction. The card size 7 is "3". The three suit recognition units 8 are arranged on the vertical center line, and the middle position is placed on the center portion. The upper and lower positions are placed on the vertical center line symmetrically with respect to the horizontal center line. At this time, the upper two suit recognition sections 8 are taken as the first direction, and the lower one suit recognition section 8 is taken as the second direction. The card size 7 is "4". Among the four suit recognition sections 8, two are arranged vertically symmetrically with respect to the horizontal centerline on the vertical centerline, and the remaining two are covered with respect to the vertical centerline on the horizontal centerline. Configured to be left-right symmetrical. At this time, those on the upper and left sides are taken as the first direction, and those on the lower and right sides are taken as the second direction.

The card face size “5” is a card face size identifying portion 9 formed by forming a plurality of hemispherical spherical protrusions 11 along both side portions of the single-sided display surface 2 toward both end sides. Each of the card size recognition portions 9 widens the interval between the protrusions 11 at the center portion, and a suit identification portion 8 is formed here. In the three pattern recognition units 8 other than "square", the left side is taken as the first direction, and the right side is taken as the second direction. The card size 7 is from "6" to "9", and the card size recognition portion 9 and the suit color recognition portion 8 are formed between the two card size recognition portions 9 on the two sides of the single-sided display surface 2. The above-mentioned cards having the same size 7 and "1" to "4" are formed.

The card size 7 is "10", and the card face size identification portions 9 are formed in two rows along the two sides of the single-sided display surface 2, and the same suit as the aforementioned card size 7 is formed in the center portion. Identification section 8. The card size 7 is from "11 (J)" to "13 (K)", and the card size recognition unit 9 and the suit color recognition unit 8 are formed in two rows along the two sides of the one-sided display surface 2, respectively. Between the two card size identifying portions 9, the aforementioned card size 7 and the same structure as “1” to “3” are formed.

In this way, the card size 7 is "1" to "4", and can be recognized by the suit recognition part 8. At this time, the suit recognition unit 8 functions as a card size recognition unit 9. "5" to "9" indicate that "5" is represented by a card size identifying portion 9 formed in one row along both sides of the single-sided display surface 2 in addition to the number of suit identification portions 8. ", And in this" 5 ", the value of the number of suit recognition parts 8 formed inside the card size recognition part 9 is calculated to be the card size 7. From "10" to "13 (K)", it is In one step, the card face size recognition sections 9 formed along the two sides of the one-sided display surface 2 are used as two rows indicating "10". That is, the card surface is represented by a combination of the number of suit identification portions 8 up to “1” to “4” and the number of card size identification portions 9 formed along both sides of the one-sided display surface 2. The size is 7, so that the tactile recognition unit 5 is simplified, and a structure that can be easily distinguished by a visually impaired can be made.

The protrusion 10 is formed by applying to the one-side display surface 2 by a dispenser 14.

As shown in FIG. 4, the dispenser 14 includes a rotor 16, a stator 17, a power transmission mechanism 18, and the like in a housing 15. The dispenser 14 is provided in a driving mechanism (not shown), and in a state where the playing card 1 as a resin coating target is set on a base, the base (not shown) can be relatively oriented toward the XYZ axis. To move.

The case 15 is formed of a cylindrical metal material. A first opening 19 is formed on one end side of the case 15, and a second opening 20 is formed on the outer peripheral portion.

The rotor 16 is a metal shaft body, and is formed by n-1 single-stage or multi-stage male screw shapes. Here, the rotor 16 is formed by an eccentric male screw shape, and the cross-sectional shape is a substantially regular circle.

The stator 17 is made of rubber, resin, or the like, and its inner peripheral surface is formed by n single-stage or multi-stage female screw shapes. Here, the stator 17 is formed of two multi-stage female screw shapes, and the cross-sectional shape (opening shape) of the through hole is slightly oblong.

When the rotor 16 is inserted through the stator 17, the outer peripheral surface of the rotor 16 A connection state is formed between the inner peripheral surface of the stator 17 and the inner peripheral surface of the stator 17, and a spiral-shaped fluid transfer path 21 extending in the longitudinal direction is formed between the inner peripheral surface of the stator 17 and the outer peripheral surface of the rotor 16.

The power transmission mechanism 18 includes a connector 22 and a connecting rod 23, and transmits a driving force of a driving machine (not shown) to the rotor 16.

According to the dispenser 14 having the above-mentioned structure, the rotor 16 is rotated forward and backward by driving the driving machine, and the molten resin material is ejected by a desired amount through the first opening 19, so that it can be on one side of the playing card 1 The display surface 2 forms a tactile recognition section 5. For example, when the protrusion 10 is formed on the single-sided display surface 2 as the tactile recognition portion 5, if the protrusion 11 stops the rotation of the rotor 16, there will be no leakage of liquid. If the protrusion 12 and the planar portion 13 are used for dispensing, The machine 14 can continuously rotate the rotor 16 while moving. That is, any shape can be simply formed.

According to the playing card 1 thus formed, the surface characteristics of the inside and outside of the watch face are different, and even a visually impaired person can easily specify the one-sided display surface 2. In addition, the tactile recognition unit 5 formed here can easily determine the suit 6 and the card size 7. In addition, since the combination of the marker portion 4 (suit color 6 and card size 7) and the background color of the one-sided display surface 2 is easily determined, it is taken for granted that even a healthy person can easily recognize the person with low vision. Therefore, a person who is able to understand, amblyopia, and a visually impaired person who does not understand braille can also easily understand, and can play a game using playing cards 1 happily.

The present invention is not limited to the configuration described in the foregoing embodiment, and various modifications are possible.

For example, in the aforementioned embodiment, although it is displayed on one side of the playing card 1 Face 2 forms a simplified suit 6 and card size 7, but braille can be formed instead of this, or braille can be formed with it.

Furthermore, in the aforementioned embodiment, although the tactile recognition section 5 is made of, for example, a flat surface that constitutes the outer surface of the planar portion 13, it may be formed by a curved surface or provided with undulations such as "clover".

Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the tactile recognition part 5 was comprised with the material which has translucency, it may be comprised with the same color as a background part. With this configuration, the tactile recognition section 5 does not become an obstacle for the identification mark section 4.

Moreover, in the said embodiment, the tactile recognition part 5 was apply | coated to the single-sided display surface 2 of the playing card 1 by the dispenser 14, but it is not necessarily formed using the dispenser 14 of the said structure. In addition, the tactile recognition section 5 is not limited to coating, and forming and the like may be formed by other means.
