Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of 3D printing equipment, and more particularly, to a device for generating a spiral line model and the spiral line model. Background Art

[0002] In daily teaching of subjects like physics and electrical engineering, knowledge about helices is often covered. In existing textbooks, the diagrams are all two-dimensional, used to illustrate these concepts. However, some students struggle to construct vector relationships in three-dimensional space, such as the direction of the Lorentz force and the analysis of helical motion. In particular, static illustrations in textbooks fail to convey the temporal evolution of particle motion, and blackboard drawings or animated demonstrations offer no intuitive presentation. Students passively absorb knowledge and struggle to actively explore the influence of variables. Therefore, practical helical models are needed to assist in teaching.

[0003] In the prior art, for example, Chinese patent application number 201220542633.1, entitled "Spiral Function Graph Demonstration Device," discloses a device comprising a base and a column mounted on the base. The base is provided with a slideway, and the column is positioned within the slideway. A coordinate point is provided on the column, and a hanging ring is provided opposite the coordinate point. The hanging ring contains a winding wire for representing the function graph, and a suction cup is provided at the lower end of the base. In this solution, the winding wire is connected to the hanging ring, and the winding tubes at the multiple hanging rings are connected to form a spiral. By observing the spiral, students can help understand the relevant knowledge points.

[0004] In the above technical solution, the shape of the spiral is fixed and cannot demonstrate the trajectory of the charge on the spiral. Therefore, a device is needed to generate a spiral model to assist students in understanding relevant knowledge points in the process of generating the spiral model. Summary of the Invention

Therefore, the terms describing the positional relationships in the drawings are only for illustrative purposes and should not be construed as limiting this patent. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meanings of the above terms according to specific circumstances. The technical solution of the present invention is further described in detail below through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Example 1 like Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides a device for generating a spiral model, including a box 1, a plane moving component 2, a longitudinal track 3, a print head 4, a printing table 5, printing consumables 6 and a display table 9; the plane moving component 2 is arranged at the upper part of the inner cavity of the box 1, and the longitudinal track 3 is arranged below the plane moving component; the print head 4 is slidably connected to the plane moving component 2, and the printing table 5 is slidably connected to the longitudinal track 3; the printing consumables 6 are placed in the box 1, and the printing consumables 6 are connected to the print head 4; the display table 9 is arranged on the outer side of the box 1, and the display table 9 is used to place the spiral model 10.

[0026] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: When a spiral model is needed, the machine is controlled to move the planar motion component 2, which drives the print head 4 to draw a circle. The print table 5 then moves downward. During this process, the print head 4 extracts printing material 6 from the material rack 7 and performs 3D printing. The printing path of the print head 4 resembles the motion trajectory of a spiral. Students can understand the spiral motion trajectory by observing the printing process. After printing is completed, the spiral model 10 can be placed on the display table 9 for subsequent teaching.

[0027] Beneficial effects of this embodiment: The three-dimensional spiral line generated by three-dimensional printing makes it easier for students to understand the trajectory of the spiral line more intuitively.

[0028] Example 2 like Figure 1-3 As shown, another embodiment of a device for generating a spiral line model is shown. Based on embodiment 1, the main difference from the embodiment is that the plane moving component 2 includes a transverse rail 21, a horizontal rail 22, a transverse driver 23 and a horizontal driver 24; the horizontal rails 22 are provided in two groups, and the horizontal rails 22 are symmetrically arranged at the top of the inner cavity of the box body 1; the transverse rail 21 is slidably connected to the two horizontal rails 22 at the same time, and the print head 4 is slidably connected to the transverse rail 21; the horizontal driver 24 is arranged on the horizontal rail 22, and the horizontal driver 24 is used to drive the transverse rail 21 to move along the horizontal rail 22; the transverse driver 23 is arranged on the transverse rail 21, and the driver is used to drive the print head 4 to move laterally along the transverse rail 21.

[0029] The printing table 5 includes a longitudinal driver 51 and a support 52. The support 52 is arranged on the top of the longitudinal driver 51. The longitudinal driver 51 is arranged on the longitudinal track 3. The longitudinal driver 51 is used to drive the support 52 to move up and down along the longitudinal track 3; a useful center point is marked on the support 52 to facilitate marking the initial printing position.

[0030] A controller 8 is also provided in the box 1. The transverse driver 23, horizontal driver 24, longitudinal driver 51, print head 4 and printing table 5 are all electrically connected to the controller 8. The controller 8 is used to electrically connect to a computer and receive control instructions. The controller 8 is used to drive the transverse driver 23 and the horizontal driver 24 to drive the print head 4 to make a circular displacement on the plane. When the print head 4 is displaced, the printing material 6 is extracted through the print head 4 for printing. At the same time, the controller 8 is also used to control the printing table 5 to move up and down along the longitudinal track 3, so that the spiral model 10 is generated during the movement.

[0031] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: During the specific process of generating a spiral, the horizontal driver 24 and the transverse driver drive the print head 4 to perform a circular displacement on a plane. In a three-dimensional coordinate system, this corresponds to the circular displacement of the print head 4 in the plane containing the X-axis and Y-axis. During the circular displacement of the print head 4, the longitudinal driver 51 drives the carriage 52 to move, and the longitudinal driver 51 maintains a constant speed during the displacement process. To change the specifications of the spiral, the size of the circular displacement of the print head 4 and the speed of the longitudinal driver 51 on the longitudinal track 3 can be changed, thereby driving the carriage 52 to move at different speeds. This can achieve a spiral with different pitches, ultimately generating spirals of different specifications. In actual teaching, for example, when analyzing and disassembling the movement of particles in a spiral, the lead angle of the spiral can be changed. When the lead angle approaches 90 degrees, the particles tend to move in a straight line, while when the lead angle approaches 0 degrees, they tend to move in a circular motion.

[0032] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: different spiral line models 10 can be formed by changing the size of the displacement circle of the print head 4 during printing and the speed at which the longitudinal driver 51 moves. That is, different spiral lines can be generated by controlling variables, making it easier for students to understand relevant knowledge points during learning.

[0033] Example 3 like Figure 1-4 As shown, another embodiment of a device for generating a spiral model is provided. On the basis of embodiment 1, an adjustment component 11 is further provided on the outside of the box 1, and the adjustment component 11 includes a rotary arm 111, a connecting arm 112 and an imaging probe 113; the connecting arm 112 is L-shaped, and the connecting arm 112 is telescopically mounted on the end of the rotary arm 111, the rotary arm 111 is rotatably connected to the box 1, and a sliding groove 114 is provided on the outer wall of the connecting arm 112, and the imaging probe 113 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 114, and the imaging probe 113 is used to be electrically connected to a computer or multimedia device.

[0034] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: The generated spiral model 10 can be placed on a display stand 9. Students in different positions will have different viewing angles when viewing the spiral model 10. Therefore, the distance between the imaging probe 113 and the spiral model 10 can be adjusted by pulling the connecting arm 112 on the adjustment assembly 11, or by pulling the imaging probe 113 along the sliding slot 114, so that the imaging probe 113 can capture different positions. The images captured by the imaging probe 113 are ultimately transmitted to a computer or multimedia device, ensuring that all students see the same image and avoiding deviations from the teacher's explanation.

[0035] Beneficial effects of this embodiment: By setting the adjustment component 11, the picture taken by the imaging probe 113 can be changed, and the taken picture can be transmitted to the display device at the same time, thereby ensuring that all students see the same picture, avoiding misunderstandings due to angle deviation when looking at the real object.

[0036] Example 4 like Figure 1-4 FIG. 1 shows another embodiment of a device for generating a spiral line model. Based on the first embodiment, the main difference from the first embodiment is that a counter tensioner 61 is further provided within the housing 1. The printing consumable 6 passes through the counter tensioner 61 before being connected to the print head 4. The counter tensioner is used to initially stress the printing consumable 6. A mounting hole is provided on the display stand 9. A light source 91 is provided at the bottom end of the display stand 9. The light-emitting segment of the light source 91 is connected to the mounting hole.

[0037] The working principle of this embodiment is that the printing consumables 6 are usually rolled up on the material rack 7. Pulling them directly from the material rack 7 will cause the printing consumables 6 to reel due to stress. Therefore, a counting tensioner 61 is provided to relieve the stress on the printing consumables 6 and also to display the amount of printing consumables 6 used to generate the spiral model 10. After printing is completed, the spiral model 10 can be placed on the display stand 9. To prevent poor viewing due to low light conditions, the light source 91 can be turned on to increase the brightness of the display stand 9.

[0038] Beneficial effects of this embodiment: by providing a counting tensioner, the consumption of the printing consumables 6 can be understood in real time; in addition, by providing a light source 91 on the display stand 9, the environment being too dark to affect observation can be avoided.

[0039] Example 5 like Figure 5 As shown, a spiral line model is generated using any device in Examples 1-4. The spiral line model 10 includes a track member 101 and a moving member 103. The track member 101 is provided with a slide groove, and the moving member 103 cooperates with the slide groove.

[0040] An indicator scale 104 is also slidably connected in the slide groove. The indicator scale 104 includes three mutually perpendicular arrow parts 105. The three arrow parts 105 are connected by magnetic attraction.

[0041] The working principle of this embodiment: In addition to generating only a single spiral during the printing process, a more complex spiral model 10 can also be generated. For example, a chute is provided on the spiral model 10, and a moving member 103, which can be a sphere, is placed in the chute. The movement of the moving member 103 in the chute can simulate the movement of particles or charges in the spiral. In addition, an indicator ruler 104 is provided on the spiral, and students can use the direction indicated by the ruler to assist in analyzing the movement of the moving member 103 in the chute. The indicator is composed of three mutually perpendicular arrows, which can be adjusted according to actual teaching needs.

[0042] Beneficial effects of this embodiment: by arranging the moving part 103 and the indicating scale 104 on the spiral line model 10, it can help students better analyze and understand the movement of particles or charges on the spiral line.

[0043] The above describes the embodiments of this embodiment, but this embodiment is not limited to the above specific implementation methods. The above 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.
