ABSTRACT:
A braille label writer for inscribing braille on a labeling tape, according to the invention, comprises an operating section provided with operation keys including an input key, a memory for storing information concerning letter codes and braille codes, a display section for displaying information including letters, converting means for converting a letter code into a braille code, and an inscribing section for inscribing braille corresponding to the converted braille code. The inscribing section includes a plurality of solenoids having plungers, levers provided for the respective solenoids for transmitting driving forces of the plungers of the solenoids, and push pins for forming raised braille characters on the labeling tape. The plungers are arranged parallel to the push pins. Each of the levers has one end supported movably by an upper portion of a corresponding one of the plungers, also has an intermediate portion supported rotatably about a stationary fulcrum, and has another end holding, with a certain freedom, a lower end of a corresponding one of the push pins.
