Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of Sichuan opera performance props, and more particularly to a linkage face-changing device and a face-changing method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Sichuan Opera face changing is an important part of Sichuan Opera performing arts, and is an artistic treasure created and passed down by generations of Sichuan Opera artists.

[0003] The traditional face-changing method is quite difficult and requires years of hard practice to learn. Therefore, there are only a few people who can perform face-changing, resulting in a continuous decrease in the number of people learning Sichuan Opera face-changing, which has reduced the popularity and influence of Sichuan Opera face-changing.

[0004] In order to reduce the difficulty of face-changing in Sichuan Opera, some face-changing mechanisms have been designed. For example, electronic locks are set in the actor's costume, and the elastic components used to retract the facial makeup are limited and fixed by the electronic locks. When the electronic lock is opened by the remote control switch, the corresponding elastic components can directly retract the corresponding facial makeup quickly into the performance costume. However, it is necessary to set up a large number of electronic locks and power supply equipment, and the production cost is high. The remote control switch needs to be set on the hand or foot, which is prone to accidental touch. It cannot be effectively controlled when holding the performance props. Once the circuit is damaged, the facial makeup cannot be changed, and the cost of equipment maintenance is high. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a linkage face-changing device and a face-changing method thereof in order to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0006] The present invention provides a linkage-type face-changing device, comprising a fixed track, a damping chute provided on the fixed track, a horizontal plate connected to the upper end of the fixed track, a mask pull-down mechanism slidably connected to the damping chute, an elastic adjustment mechanism connected to the horizontal plate, a plurality of masks connected to the mask pull-down mechanism, and a plurality of adhesive members connected to the masks, wherein the fixed track is connected to a performance costume, and the plurality of masks are connected to a performance hat body via corresponding adhesive members;

[0007] The mask pulling-down mechanism includes a plurality of one-way clamping parts, a damping slide bar connected to the one-way clamping parts, a plurality of first connecting ropes connected between two adjacent one-way clamping parts, and a mask retraction assembly provided on the one-way clamping parts. The plurality of mask retraction assemblies are respectively connected to the plurality of masks. The plurality of damping slide bars are slidably connected in the damping slide groove from top to bottom. An adjustable gap is provided between the lowest damping slide bar and the lower stroke end point of the damping slide groove. The mask recovery assembly is used to apply a pulling force to the mask. The pulling force applied by the mask recovery assembly to the mask is less than the adhesive force between the adhesive part and the performance hat body.

[0008] The elastic adjustment mechanism includes an elastic rope connected to the horizontal board, a foot connector connected to the other end of the elastic rope, and a limiting member connected to the elastic rope near the foot connector. The foot connector is used to connect to the performer's foot. The limiting member is matched with the one-way clip. When the performer stands normally, the elastic rope is in a stretched state, and the limiting member is located below the lowest one-way clip. When the performer lifts his foot, the elastic rope shortens to a set length, and the limiting member moves upward with the shortened elastic rope, passes through the lowest one-way clip and moves to a position close to the upper end of the lowest one-way clip. When the limiting member moves downward, it is limitedly engaged with the one-way clip and drives the one-way clip to move in the same direction and at the same distance.

[0009] As a further optimization scheme of the present invention, the one-way clamping member includes a pipe fitting, a semi-annular groove provided at the upper end of the pipe fitting, and several inward-bending limiting clamping members connected to the semi-annular groove. Rope grooves are provided between the several inward-bending limiting clamping members, and the rope grooves are matched with the elastic rope.

[0010] As a further optimization solution of the present invention, the limiting member includes a wedge block, a steel ball, or a conical member, and when the limiting member follows the elastic rope through the pipe, it contacts the inward-bending limiting clamping member.

[0011] As a further optimization scheme of the present invention, the facial mask retraction assembly includes a fixed shaft connected to the inner wall of the tube, a winding drum movably connected to the fixed shaft, a second connecting rope connected to the winding drum, and a clockwork spring connected between the winding drum and the fixed shaft, the other end of the second connecting rope is fixedly connected to the corresponding facial mask, and when the deformation of the clockwork spring reaches a maximum, the tension applied to the second connecting rope is less than the bonding force between the adhesive and the performance hat body, and the friction force between the damping slide rod and the damping slide groove is greater than the bonding force between the adhesive and the performance hat body.

[0012] As a further optimization solution of the present invention, the lengths of the plurality of first connecting ropes decrease sequentially from bottom to top.

[0013] As a further optimization scheme of the present invention, the lengths of several second connecting ropes decrease from bottom to top, the length reduction values ​​of several second connecting ropes are the same as the length reduction data of several first connecting ropes, and the bottom second connecting rope is in a taut state.

[0014] As a further optimization solution of the present invention, the transverse plate is provided with a through-hole, and several second connecting ropes pass through the through-hole.

[0015] A linked face changing method, using the linked face changing device as described above, comprises the following steps:

[0016] Stacking a number of facial masks in the order of change, and bonding each facial mask to the performance hat body through adhesives;

[0017] When changing, by lifting the foot, the elastic cord is shortened and the limiting piece passes through the lowest one-way clamping piece. Then the foot is moved down again, causing the elastic cord to move down again. The limiting piece is locked with the lowest one-way clamping piece, and drives the one-way clamping piece to move down a set distance, and pulls the corresponding facial mask to separate from the performance hat body. At this time, the facial mask retraction component quickly retracts the corresponding facial mask into the performance costume, and the second-to-last one-way clamping piece from the bottom to the top moves to the position of the previous lowest one-way clamping piece.

[0018] Repeat lifting and lowering the feet until all the facial masks are retracted into the costume.

[0019] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the present invention adopts a set of elastic adjustment mechanisms and a plurality of facial mask pull-down mechanisms to perform mechanical limit linkage to change the facial mask, and there is only one set of adjustment components. All facial masks can be sequentially changed by simply repeating the action of lifting and lowering the feet. The present invention is more stable and low-cost, and the operation difficulty is further reduced, making it more suitable for beginners to operate, thereby greatly reducing the operation difficulty of Sichuan Opera face-changing.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The subject matter described herein will now be discussed with reference to exemplary embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are discussed solely to enable those skilled in the art to better understand and implement the subject matter described herein, and that the functions and arrangements of the elements discussed may be varied without departing from the scope of this specification. Various examples may omit, substitute, or add various processes or components as needed. In addition, features described with respect to some examples may also be combined in other examples.

[0025] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a linkage-type face-changing device includes a fixed track 1, a damping chute 101 provided on the fixed track 1, a horizontal plate 102 connected to the upper end of the fixed track 1, a mask pull-down mechanism slidably connected to the damping chute 101, an elastic adjustment mechanism connected to the horizontal plate 102, a plurality of masks 3 connected to the mask pull-down mechanism, and a plurality of adhesive members 4 connected to the masks 3. The fixed track 1 is connected to the performance costume, and the plurality of masks 3 are connected to the performance hat body via corresponding adhesive members 4.

[0026] The mask pulling-down mechanism includes a plurality of one-way clips 201, damping slide bars 202 connected to the one-way clips 201, a plurality of first connecting ropes 206 connected between two adjacent one-way clips 201, and a mask retraction assembly provided on the one-way clips 201. The plurality of mask retraction assemblies are respectively connected to a plurality of masks 3. The plurality of damping slide bars 202 are slidably connected in the damping chute 101 from top to bottom. An adjustable gap is provided between the lowest damping slide bar 202 and the lower end point of the damping chute 101. The mask retraction assembly is used to apply a pulling force to the mask 3. The pulling force applied by the mask retraction assembly to the mask 3 is less than the adhesive force between the adhesive 4 and the performance hat body.

[0027] The elastic adjustment mechanism includes an elastic rope 203 connected to the horizontal board 102, a foot connector 205 connected to the other end of the elastic rope 203, and a limiting member connected to the elastic rope 203 near the foot connector 205. The foot connector 205 is used to connect with the performer's foot. The limiting member is matched with the one-way clip 201. When the performer stands normally, the elastic rope 203 is in a stretched state, and the limiting member is located below the lowest one-way clip 201. When the performer lifts his foot, the elastic rope 203 shortens to a set length, and the limiting member moves upward with the shortened elastic rope 203, passes through the lowest one-way clip 201 and moves to a position close to the upper end of the lowest one-way clip 201. When the limiting member moves downward, it is limitedly engaged with the one-way clip 201 and drives the one-way clip 201 to move in the same direction and at the same distance.

[0028] The facial makeup retraction assembly connected to the lowermost one-way clip 201 is in a tensioned state.

[0029] It should be noted that before performing the face-changing performance, a plurality of facial masks 3 are stacked together in a changing order. The changing order here specifically refers to the connection relationship between the facial masks 3 and the corresponding one-way clamping parts 201. For example, when the one-way clamping part 201 connected to the facial mask 3 is at the bottom, the facial mask 3 is the first to be retracted, that is, the facial mask 3 that is first shown to the audience. Similarly, the facial masks are arranged in order from bottom to top, and then each facial mask 3 is bonded to the performance hat body through the adhesive 4 and covered on the performer's face.

[0030] When changing, by lifting the foot, the elastic rope 203 is shortened and the limiting piece passes through the lowest one-way clip 201. When the limiting piece passes through the one-way clip 201 from bottom to top, it will not be limited and clamped. The limiting piece can pass through the one-way clip 201 and move to the top of the one-way clip 201, but below the second-to-last one-way clip 201, that is, between the lowest and second-to-last one-way clips 201. Then the foot moves down again, so that the elastic rope 203 is stretched and the limiting piece moves down again. At this time, the limiting piece is limited and clamped with the lowest one-way clip 201, and drives the one-way clip 201 to move down a set distance, and pulls the corresponding face mask. 3, so that the corresponding facial mask 3 is separated from the performance hat body. At this time, the facial mask retraction component can quickly retract the facial mask 3 separated from the performance hat body into the performance costume. At this time, the second-to-last one-way clip 201 from bottom to top moves to the position of the previous lowest one-way clip 201. Specifically, when the lowest one-way clip 201 moves, the upper one-way clip 201 is pulled downward by the corresponding first connecting rope 206. Each one-way clip 201 moves downward. During the downward movement, the corresponding facial mask retraction component will also be stretched accordingly, but will not pull the facial mask 3 back. Similarly, when the second-to-last one is pulled down, the third-to-last one moves to this position, and so on.

[0031] Then, the facial makeup can be continuously changed by repeatedly lifting the feet and resetting them until all the facial makeup 3 are retracted into the performance costume.

[0032] Among them, the one-way clamping member 201 includes a pipe fitting 2010, a semi-annular groove 2011 provided at the upper end of the pipe fitting 2010, and several inward-bending limiting clamping members 2012 connected to the semi-annular groove 2011. A rope groove 2013 is provided between the several inward-bending limiting clamping members 2012, and the rope groove 2013 is matched with the elastic rope 203.

[0033] The limiting member includes a wedge block or a steel ball 204 or a conical member. When the limiting member follows the elastic rope 203 and passes through the pipe 2010, it contacts the inner-bend limiting clamping member 2012.

[0034] It should be noted that, as mentioned above, the limiting member can be a wedge block or a steel ball 204 or a conical member. Here, the steel ball 204 is taken as an example. When the steel ball 204 passes through the pipe 2010, the pipe 2010 will not limit the steel ball 204. The steel ball 204 moves up along the inner wall of the pipe 2010. When it contacts the inner bending limiting clamp 2012, the inner bending limiting clamp 2012 bends toward the middle of the pipe, allowing the steel ball 204 to continue moving along the inner bending limiting clamp 2012 until it is separated from the inner bending limiting clamp 2012. At this time, the steel ball 204 moves to the top of the pipe 2010, and then when the steel ball 204 moves down, it first contacts the inner bending limiting clamp 2012. 012 contacts and moves downward along the inward-bending limiting clamping piece 2012. At this time, the steel ball 204 gradually moves to the outside of the tube 2010 and is limited and clamped in the area at the bottom of the rope groove 2013 and the outside of the tube 2010. At this time, as the elastic rope 203 continues to move downward, the steel ball 204 can drive the tube 2010 to move downward in the same direction and distance, so that the facial makeup retraction component pulls the corresponding facial makeup 3, so that the corresponding facial makeup 3 is separated from the performance hat body. When the facial makeup 3 is separated from the performance hat body, the facial makeup retraction component is no longer subjected to force, and it can quickly retract the facial makeup 3 into the performance costume. The performance hat body and the performance costume are both existing technologies. This device can be applied to different performance hat bodies and performance costumes.

[0035] Among them, the facial mask retraction assembly includes a fixed shaft 207 connected to the inner wall of the tube 2010, a winding drum 208 movably connected to the fixed shaft 207, a second connecting rope 209 connected to the winding drum 208, and a spring connected between the winding drum 208 and the fixed shaft 207. The other end of the second connecting rope 209 is fixedly connected to the corresponding facial mask 3. When the deformation of the spring reaches the maximum, the tension applied to the second connecting rope 209 is less than the bonding force between the adhesive 4 and the performance cap body, and the friction between the damping slide rod 202 and the damping slide groove 101 is greater than the bonding force between the adhesive 4 and the performance cap body.

[0036] The second connecting rope 209 connected to the lowermost one-way clamping component 201 is in a taut state.

[0037] It should be noted that, as mentioned above, when the corresponding pipe 2010 moves to the position defined as the lowest position, the second connecting rope 209 is in a taut state. Specifically, when the pipe 2010 moves downward continuously from bottom to top, the corresponding second connecting rope 209 will be extended, that is, the winding drum 208 rotates around the fixed axis 207 under the pulling action of the second connecting rope 209 to adapt to the downward movement of the pipe 2010. During the rotation of the winding drum 208, the clockwork spring is continuously deformed. When it is no longer subjected to force, the clockwork spring can reversely drive the winding drum 208 to rotate, and the second connecting rope 209 is quickly rewound. The second connecting rope 209 can quickly pull the corresponding facial mask 3 back into the performance costume.

[0038] The lengths of the first connecting ropes 206 decrease from bottom to top.

[0039] The lengths of the plurality of second connecting ropes 209 decrease sequentially from bottom to top, and the length reduction values ​​of the plurality of second connecting ropes 209 are the same as the length reduction data of the plurality of first connecting ropes 206 .

[0040] The transverse plate 102 is provided with a through hole 103 , through which the plurality of second connecting ropes 209 pass.

[0041] It should be noted that the lengths of several first connecting ropes 206 are reduced in sequence in order to adapt to the contact between the pipe 2010 and the previous pipe 2010 when it moves downward. Therefore, the actual moving distance of the subsequent pipe 2010 is gradually reduced. Therefore, in the initial state, a distance is reserved between the lowest pipe 2010 and the lower stroke end point of the damping slide 101 for the pipe 2010 to move and stack. The length of the pipe 2010, the first connecting rope 206 and the second connecting rope 209 can be adaptively designed according to parameters such as the actual performer's height and performance costumes.

[0042] The above describes this embodiment, but this embodiment is not limited to the above-mentioned specific implementation methods. The above-mentioned specific implementation methods are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Ordinary technicians in this field can also make many forms based on the inspiration of this embodiment, all of which are protected by this embodiment.
