ABSTRACT:
A new Braille writing slate has a front frame with a parapet on its back side, forming a template in which a blind person can quickly, easily and accurately insert a sheet of Braille writing paper. At the front of the writing slate is a cell plate of conventional design for guiding the writer's stylus appropriately into the paper below. At the back of the cell plate and the writing paper is a hinged receiving plate, also of conventional design. When the receiving plate is forced against the paper, the parapet assures the correct position and pins are engaged through holes, piercing the paper and locking it in the desired position. A back cover is hinged to the writing slate, and the engagement of the receiving plate with the paper is effected simply by a firm closing of this back cover.
