The terms used in the specification herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.
[0028] refer to Figure 1-4 The utility model provides an intelligent globe, including a sphere and a support base, the sphere is movably connected to the support base; it also includes a signal input device, a main controller and a signal output device, and the two ends of the main controller are electrically connected to the signal input device and the signal output device respectively; the signal input device includes a pressure sensing component arranged in the sphere, and a voice collection component 25 and a typing module arranged on the support base; the signal output device includes a light source display component arranged in the sphere, and a voice playback component 26 and a display screen 27 located on the support base; the typing module is arranged on the display screen 27; the output ends of the pressure sensing component, the voice collection component 25 and the typing module are respectively connected to the input end of the main controller, and the output end of the main controller is connected to the light source display component, the voice playback component 26 and the display screen 27.
[0029] When using the smart globe provided by the utility model, there are multiple control methods to obtain geographical location related information; the first method is that the operator can obtain relevant geographical information knowledge by pressing the surface of the globe. Specifically: when the operator presses a country or region on the globe, the pressure sensing component is subjected to pressure. At this time, the pressure sensing component sends a pressure signal to the main controller through its signal output terminal. After receiving the signal, the main controller processes the information and sends a control command to the light source display component, thereby controlling the light source display component to emit light at the position pressed by the operator; in a further preferred embodiment, the luminous color of the light source display component can be set so that it can be distinguished from the color of the globe under normal circumstances when no external force is applied, so that the user can intuitively see the color change of the pressed position on the globe when pressing.
[0030] The second method is through voice interaction; specifically, the operator can use the voice collection component 25 to say the geographical information of a country that he wants to obtain. After the voice collection component 25 collects the relevant audio signal, it sends it to the main controller, and the main controller processes the data and sends it to the voice playback component 26 for playback; in this embodiment, the voice collection device is a microphone, and the voice playback device is a speaker.
[0031] The third method is by typing; specifically: the typing module is set on the display screen 27, and the operator can input the geographical information of a country or region that he wants to query through the display screen 27. At this time, the information input by the typing module can be displayed through the display screen 27 after being processed by the main controller.
[0032] In this embodiment, the main controller will process the signals input by the pressure sensing component, the voice collection component 25 and the input module respectively, and send them to the light source display component, the voice playback device and the display screen 27 for execution. Furthermore, no matter which signal input device inputs the signal, it will be sent to the signal output device for execution after being processed by the main controller. For example, the operator enters a country that he wants to query through the voice collection component 25; after the main controller processes the audio signal, the relevant geographical knowledge of the country will be played through the voice playback device, and the relevant knowledge will also be displayed on the display screen 27. In addition, the geographical location of the country will also be displayed on the surface of the globe through the light source component (specifically: light will be emitted on the surface of the globe). In other words, the operator can obtain the information he wants through vision and hearing.
[0033] Therefore, compared with the existing globes, the smart globe provided by the utility model has the following beneficial effects: through the above three control methods, students can clearly and intuitively see the geographical location-related knowledge explained by the teacher in class, which increases the interest of learning; students can not only recognize the geographical location of a country or a region through the globe, but also learn about the relevant humanities knowledge and other information of the country / region, which further improves the students' initiative, enthusiasm, and interest in learning, and also makes the teacher's classroom teaching work more vivid; in addition, after having the above-mentioned intelligent operation functions, the price is also lower than that of the AR globe on the market, which can meet the daily teaching needs of teachers.

[0035] In this embodiment, the memory 23 is used to pre-store relevant geographical knowledge of the geographical location information on the globe; the processor 22 is mainly responsible for processing the signal input by the signal input device (i.e., the pressure sensing component, the voice collection component 25 and the typing module). After receiving the signal input by the signal input device, the processor 22 will compare the input signal with the information in the memory 23, and retrieve the corresponding information in the memory 23, and then send it to the signal output device (i.e., the light source display, the voice playback component 26 and the display screen 27) for execution.

This snap-in connection between the upper sphere 10 and the lower sphere 11 facilitates the disassembly and installation of the sphere; such as Figure 3 Here, the lower sphere 11 is taken as an example. A snap-in groove 111 is provided on the lower sphere 11. Of course, the snap-in groove 111 can also be replaced by a snap-in block. Correspondingly, the upper sphere 10 is also provided with a snap-in block matching the snap-in groove 111 of the lower sphere 11. Because the internal structures of the upper sphere 10 and the lower sphere 11 are basically the same, the drawings only take the lower sphere 11 as an example for reference, and the illustration of the upper sphere 10 is omitted.
[0039] refer to Figure 1-3 In a preferred embodiment, the sphere includes an upper sphere 10 and a lower sphere 11 that are detachably connected. When the upper sphere 10 and the lower sphere 11 are connected, a closed cavity is formed inside the upper sphere 10 and the lower sphere 11, and the pressure sensing device and the light source display component are both located in the cavity; magnetic components (not shown) are provided on the upper sphere 10 and the lower sphere 11, and the magnetic components are provided at the connection between the upper sphere 10 and the lower sphere 11; the upper sphere 10 and the lower sphere 11 are magnetically connected.

[0041] refer to Figure 4 In a preferred embodiment, the pressure sensing component includes a pressure sensing film 3, a first mounting position and a sensing circuit 31 provided on the pressure sensing film 3, and a second mounting position corresponding to the first mounting position is provided on the upper sphere 10 and the lower sphere 11. When the pressure sensing film 3 is connected to the sphere, the first mounting position matches and connects with the second mounting position. The light source display component is an LED soft film screen 4, which is attached to the inner wall of the sphere, and the pressure sensing film 3 is tightly attached between the LED soft film screen 4 and the inner wall of the sphere. In this embodiment, the sensing positions of the LED soft film screen 4 and the pressure sensing film 3 correspond one by one, so that the color of the light can change at the position pressed by the user.
[0042] refer to Figure 3 and4 In a preferred embodiment, the first mounting position includes a plurality of positioning holes 30 arranged at intervals; the second mounting position includes a plurality of positioning posts 15 arranged at intervals; when the pressure sensing film 3 is connected to the sphere, the positioning holes 30 are connected to the positioning posts 15.

There are two pull rings, and the two pull rings can move closer to or farther from each other when moving. The movable connection between the pull ring and the base 20 can be hinged, that is, one end of the pull ring is hinged to the base 20, and the other end can move back and forth relative to the base 20. When the globe is in a normal horizontal state, the pull ring is located in the groove, so as to avoid the pull ring protruding from the surface of the base 20 and causing unevenness and inability to be placed horizontally. When the teacher needs to take the globe during class, one end of the two pull rings can be pulled out of the groove, and the two pull rings are close to each other, so that it is convenient for the teacher to carry the globe and walk, and the balance and stability of two pull rings are better than that of one pull ring. In the past, the globe needed to be taken by both hands to hold the handle and support the bottom of the globe respectively, which was very inconvenient. In this embodiment, when taking the globe, one only needs to turn it upside down and pull out the pull ring from the groove. When walking, one only needs to hold the pull ring, which is very portable.
