Description

Antibacterial patch for elevator buttons

The present invention relates to an antibacterial patch for an elevator button, and more particularly, to an antibacterial patch for an elevator button intended to promote hygiene as well as convenience for the visually impaired by forming braille on an antibacterial patch made of an antibacterial fabric.

In general, a call button is provided on each floor provided with an elevator door, and a button for inputting a floor desired by a passenger is provided inside the elevator.

These buttons have a floor number that is turned on when a passenger presses it, and a braille is formed so that each floor can be sensed by touch.

However, since various viruses or bacterial infectious diseases such as influenza virus and corona virus are in vogue, there is a great concern about transmission by contact. Disinfection is difficult when the elevator continues to be operated, and even after disinfection, if an infected person touches the button again after a certain period of time, it is easily transmitted to others.

Therefore, recently, the entire panel equipped with a button is covered with a film having an antibacterial function to prevent the propagation of the contamination source, but this antibacterial film is semi-transparent and contains information about the button, that is, the floor number, the closing and opening buttons, and the call button. There is a problem in that it is not easy to identify such as, and in particular, in the case of braille formed on a button, it is not easily tactilely identified by the antibacterial film.

That is, since the antibacterial film having a thickness covers the button, in the case of the visually impaired, there is a problem that the braille formed on the button cannot be tactilely confirmed.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

However, the embodiments of the present invention illustrated below may be modified in various other forms, and the scope of the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described below.

The embodiments of the present invention are provided to more completely explain the present invention to those of ordinary skill in the art.

Figure 1 is a view showing the shape of the antibacterial patch for the elevator button according to the present invention, Figure 2 is a side view of the antibacterial patch, Figure 3 is a view showing the woven form of the antibacterial patch.

First, as shown in FIG. 1, a patch 100 in the form of fabric having antibacterial and sterilization properties is formed. This patch 100 is formed in the shape of each individual button of the elevator or is formed by cutting the fabric in the shape of an elevator button. can be

1 shows that the patch 100 is formed to have the same shape and size as the circular elevator button in order to be attached to the circular elevator button, but in the case of a square or triangular button, it is formed to fit the shape and size of the elevator It is preferable that the front portion of each button is individually formed.

In the patch 100, weft yarns are arranged at regular intervals in the horizontal direction as shown in FIG. 3, and warp yarns are arranged at regular intervals in the vertical direction, and the weft yarns are mainly arranged with verbs, For the warp, yarns made of synthetic resin materials such as PE, PP, and PC are mainly arranged.

For example, in the weft yarn, only the verb is arranged, or the verb and the yarn made of a synthetic resin material may be alternately arranged. can

This is to make it easier to weave while maintaining antibacterial, sterilizing and deodorizing power due to the copper component of the company. If the warp and the warp are arranged only with the weft, the copper particles of the weft and the warp arranged in the warp rub off and come off by friction with each other, thereby reducing the sterilization power and increasing the manufacturing cost.

However, by weaving the weft so that the yarn is mainly arranged, and the warp yarn so that the synthetic resin yarn is mainly arranged, there is no friction between the wefts and copper particles are prevented from falling off.

Of course, both the weft and the warp may be manufactured only by the verb, and also, this patch 100 may be knitted in the form of a cloth.

It is preferable to use 70 denier for the above verb, and it is preferable to use 100 denier for the synthetic resin yarn made of PE material.

Here, the denier (denier) is a unit indicating the thickness of the yarn, it is 450 m in length and indicates the thickness of the yarn to have a weight of 0.05g.

Accordingly, by forming the sterilizing pad layer 20 by using the yarn or silver and a synthetic resin thread, it is harmless to the human body and can be manufactured relatively inexpensively.

A button information display unit 110 composed of numbers or symbols representing button information is formed on the front surface of the patch 100 , and braille 120 is formed on the peripheral portion of the button information display unit 110 , the button information display unit 110 and the braille 120 have a shape protruding upward as shown in FIG. 2, and their height is formed to a height of about 0.25 mm, which is the international standard.

Alternatively, the button information display unit 110 is printed and formed so as not to protrude, and only the braille 120 portion may be formed to protrude to have a height. It is formed in a partial area of the front surface of the patch 100, it is preferable that the front portion of the patch 100 is formed to have an area exposed to 90% or more.

An attachment portion 140 for individually attaching to each button of the elevator is formed on the rear surface of the patch 100 , and a release paper 150 in the form of a film is attached to the rear surface of the attachment portion 140 .

Therefore, it is enough to remove the release paper 150 from each patch 100 and attach it to the button position of the corresponding floor of the elevator button, and then the occupant will visually check the number of the floor to go through the button information display unit 110. Next, when the elevator button is pressed, the light lit from the elevator button is leaked into the interwoven space of the patch 100 so that the occupant can visually recognize that the button has been pressed.

Of course, in the case of the visually impaired, it is possible to check the braille 120 and press the button of the floor to go to.

In addition, the tag 130 protruding outward is integrally formed on the patch 100 so that it can be easily removed by the tag 130 when the patch 100 is removed from the elevator button.

That is, since the patch 100 contains copper or silver components, the antibacterial and sterilizing power lasts for several months. ) is preferably formed.

The button information display unit 110 and the braille 120 may be formed individually, but it is preferable to form them at the same time as possible. For example, they may be formed using silk screen printing.

In such silk screen printing, as shown in FIG. 4 , a screen 200 having a fine hole formed therein is provided in a portion corresponding to the button information display unit 110 or Braille 120 , and a patch 100 is provided at the lower portion of the screen 200 . is positioned so that the printing liquid 210 is printed on the front surface of the patch 100 through the hole of the screen 200 .

At this time, the printing liquid 210 is to use a liquid material such as silicone, urethane, epoxy, PVC, etc., the button information display unit 110 or the braille 120 protruding from the front portion of the patch 100 is formed.

Since the patch 100 has a form woven with copper and synthetic resin yarns, the button information display unit 110 or braille 120 is stably attached to the patch 100 by double printing, FIG. 5 As in, the printing liquid 210 fills the interwoven space of the patch 100 by the first-degree printing part 121 as in 122) to form the braille 120 or the button information display unit 110 protruding upward.

As a result, the button information display unit 110 or the braille 120 does not come off easily from the surface of the patch 100 by double printing.

As the printing method of the button information display unit 110 or the braille 120, a transfer method may be used. Then, the button information display unit 110 or braille 120 is transferred to the front portion of the patch 100 by ultrasonic transcription in a state in contact with the front portion of the patch 100 and then fused to the front portion of the patch 100. will be.

As another form for forming the button information display unit 110 or Braille 120 on the patch 100, a method of printing to have a thickness by an inkjet printer, a method of printing through a 3D printer, and cutting by a gravure mold Various methods may be used, such as a roll-to-roll printing method on an unfinished patch fabric.

Therefore, since the button information display unit 110 or the braille 120 is formed only on a part of the front portion of the patch 100 having antibacterial and sterilizing properties, the patch 100 can be used for a long time for several months while maintaining antibacterial and sterilizing power.

Meanwhile, in order for the light emitted from the elevator button to pass through the patch 100 and be visually and clearly visible to the occupant, the patch 100 may be knitted so that a portion thereof is not dense as shown in FIG. 7 .

That is, the light-transmitting portion 101 is formed so as not to be densely knitted compared to other portions while maintaining equal intervals in the vertical direction on the patch 100 in the form of a knitted fabric in which copper and synthetic resin yarns are alternately knitted with weft yarns.

The light-transmitting portion 101 is knitted with a lower knitting density than other portions, so that light emitted from the elevator button is easily transmitted, so that the occupant can visually and easily confirm that the button is pressed.

As the specific part of the present invention has been described in detail above, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it is clear that this specific description is only a preferred embodiment, and the scope of the present invention is not limited thereby. something to do.

Accordingly, it is intended that the substantial scope of the present invention be defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
