It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0023] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "disposed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or indirectly on the other element. It should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "length", "width", "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention. The terms "first" and "second" are used only for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Thus, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.

[0024] Please also read Figure 1 and Figure 5 Now, a teaching aid for simulating seasonal changes provided by the utility model is described. The teaching aid for simulating seasonal changes includes a base 10, a globe 20, a light source 30 and a driving assembly 40; the base 10 is provided with an orbit 11 matching the orbit of the earth, and the orbit 11 is provided with four seasonal calibration points 12; the globe 20 is arranged on the orbit 11, and a benchmark 21 is arranged on the northern hemisphere of the globe 20, and the benchmark 21 is colinear with the center of the globe 20; the light source 30 is arranged on the base 10 and is located at the center of the orbit 11, and the light source 30 is used to emit light toward the globe 20; the driving assembly 40 is arranged on the base 10, and the output end is connected to the globe 20, and the driving assembly 40 is used to drive the globe 20 to pass through each seasonal calibration point 12 in sequence, and make the earth axis of the globe 20 at each seasonal calibration point 12 The orientation is consistent.

[0025] It should be noted that the four seasonal calibration points 12 can be scales or markings set on the revolution track 11 to calibrate the movement position of the globe 20 so that the globe 20 can accurately stay at each seasonal calibration point 12, or the globe 20 can be driven by the driving component 40 to move a fixed distance to ensure that the globe 20 can accurately stay. In teaching, the globe 20 is placed at the four seasonal calibration points 12, and the lengths of the shadows of the benchmark 21 at the four positions are observed, and then the position of the benchmark 21 is inferred. Seasons, the axes of the globe 20 located at the four season marking points 12 are oriented in the same direction, and the axis of the globe 20 is tilted. When the globe 20 rotates around the axis, the relative position of the marker 21 changes, and the length of the projection of the marker 21 also changes accordingly. When the shadow of the marker 21 is the longest, the position of the marker 21 is at the winter solstice; when the shadow of the marker 21 is the shortest, the position of the marker 21 is at the summer solstice. Since the earth revolves counterclockwise around the sun, it can be determined that the globe 20 is at the season marking point 12 at the vernal equinox and the autumnal equinox.

[0026] The beneficial effect of a teaching aid for simulating seasonal changes provided by the utility model is that: compared with the prior art, the utility model adopts an orbit 11 to simulate the trajectory of the earth's revolution, and drives the globe 20 through four season calibration points 12 through a driving component 40 to simulate the alternating transition of the four seasons caused by the earth's revolution around the sun. Compared with the teaching method of placing four globes 20 in four positions to reflect the four seasons, it can save the globes 20 used in teaching, avoid the waste of teaching resources caused by a large number of globes 20, and is conducive to maximizing the utilization of teaching resources; and the benchmark 21 set on the globe 20 can follow the globe 20 to make a circular motion around the light source 30, and the position of the benchmark 21 on the globe 20 remains unchanged, avoiding measurement errors caused by changes in the position of the benchmark 21; when the driving component 40 is used, the earth's axis is in the same direction when the globe 20 passes through the four season calibration points 12, and it can realize automatic driving teaching of the teaching aid while avoiding manual correction of the earth's axis, making the teaching efficiency higher.

[0027] In one possible implementation, see Figure 1 The base 10 has a cavity 13, and the peripheral wall of the cavity 13 forms a revolution track 11; a tray 22 is provided at the bottom of the globe 20, and a roller 23 is connected below the tray 22, and the roller 23 is rotatably connected to the output end of the driving component 40, and the roller 23 rolls on the revolution track 11; wherein, the peripheral wall length of the cavity 13 is an integer multiple of the peripheral wall length of the roller 23.

[0028] It should be noted that the orbit 11 simulates the orbit of the earth. The shape of the orbit 11 is an ellipse that is approximately a circle, which can be more similar to the true orbit of the earth, and can more clearly observe the changes in the position of the globe 20 and the light source 30 when it is at the four season calibration points 12; the elliptical orbit 11 has two perigees and two apogees, which serve as four season calibration points 12 respectively. The roller 23 can switch the position between the season calibration points 12 by rotating one or more full circles, and can ensure that the direction of the earth's axis at each calibration point is consistent, which is conducive to the teaching aid to realize automated teaching.

[0029] In one possible implementation, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The driving assembly 40 includes a rotating driving source 41 and a telescopic arm 42; the rotating driving source 41 is disposed on the base 10; one end of the telescopic arm 42 is connected to the output end of the rotating driving source 41, and the other end extends toward the orbital track 11 and is connected to the roller 23.

[0030] It should be noted that the teaching aid has a long service life. Since the rotation drive source 41 serves as the power input of the entire device, manual drive can be used to apply rotational power to the teaching aid, which can extend the service life of the teaching aid. You can also choose to use a drive motor to complete the automated teaching demonstration of the teaching aid by opening and closing the drive motor, which can improve the automation capability of the teaching aid. The telescopic arm 42 is rotatably connected to the roller 23, and can drive the roller 23 to roll along the inner circumference of the orbit 11, so that the globe 20 can balance the deviation of the earth's axis through the rotation of the roller 23 during the simulated revolution, so that the direction of the earth's axis remains consistent when the globe 20 revolves to the four seasonal calibration points 12, thereby realizing the automated use of the teaching aid.

[0031] In one possible implementation, see Figure 3 The telescopic arm 42 includes a fixed rod 421, a telescopic rod 422 and an elastic member 423; the fixed rod 421 is connected to the output end of the rotary drive source 41; the telescopic rod 422 is slidably connected to the fixed rod 421, and the telescopic rod 422 is connected to the roller 23; the elastic member 423 is sleeved on the telescopic rod 422, and its two ends are respectively connected to the fixed rod 421 and the telescopic rod 422; wherein the elastic member 423 is used to elastically push the telescopic rod 422, so that the roller 23 maintains elastic contact with the orbital track 11.

[0032] It should be noted that when the telescopic arm 42 rotates along the orbit 11, since the orbit 11 is elliptical, the distance between the telescopic rod 422 and the fixed rod 421 changes with the distance from the inner wall of the orbit 11 to the center of the ellipse, and the fixed rod 421 can be provided with two blind holes, and the telescopic rod 422 can be provided with two rod bodies that can be inserted into the blind holes, and the rod bodies can be inserted into or extended out of the blind holes to make the telescopic rod 422 approach or move away from the fixed rod 421; the elastic member 423 can be a spring, and the elastic member 423 always pushes the telescopic rod 422 and applies elastic force to the telescopic rod 422. Since the orbit 11 limits the roller 23, the roller 23 can always maintain rolling cooperation with the orbit 11, which is beneficial to the effectiveness of cooperation between the structures.

[0033] In one possible implementation, see Figure 2 The rotating driving source 41 includes a driving shaft 411 and an operating rod 412; the driving shaft 411 is vertically rotatably connected to the center of the cavity 13, and the top end is connected to the telescopic rotating arm 42; the operating rod 412 is rotatably connected to the base 10, one end of which extends into the cavity 13 and is transmission-connected to the driving shaft 411, and the other end extends out of the cavity 13 and is connected to the crank 413.

[0034] It should be noted that the driving shaft 411 is fixedly connected to the telescopic arm 42, and drives the telescopic arm 42 to rotate within the orbit 11 through its own rotation; the operating rod 412 serves as the power input end of the overall device, providing power for the revolution of the globe 20 along the orbit 11; the rotational force is manually applied to the operating rod 412 through the crank 413, so that the globe 20 reaches the four seasons calibration points 12, so that teaching can proceed smoothly.

[0035] In one possible implementation, see Figure 2 A first gear 43 is sleeved on the driving shaft 411 , and a second gear 44 is sleeved on one end of the operating rod 412 extending into the cavity 13 , and the second gear 44 is meshedly connected with the first gear 43 .

[0036] It should be noted that the first gear 43 and the second gear 44 can both be spiral bevel gears, which are respectively mounted on the drive shaft 411 and the operating rod 412. Through the meshing connection of the first gear 43 and the second gear 44, the power transmission direction of the operating rod 412 is changed, so that the vertically arranged drive shaft 411 rotates inside the base 10 and drives the telescopic arm 42 to rotate, so that one globe 20 has the teaching demonstration effect of four globes 20, improves measurement accuracy and reduces errors; the first gear 43 and the second gear 44 make the rotation direction of the drive shaft 411 and the rotation direction of the operating rod 412 perpendicular, so that the operating rod 412 enters the base 10 at the side of the base 10 for driving, avoiding the operating rod 412 and the drive shaft 411 from extending coaxially from the bottom of the base 10, which is conducive to the stable placement of the base 10 during teaching and enables the teaching to proceed smoothly.

[0037] In one possible implementation, see Figure 4 The circumferential wall of the cavity 13 is provided with an inner gear ring 14, the inner gear ring 14 forms the orbital track 11, the circumferential wall of the roller 23 is provided with teeth 231 meshingly connected with the inner gear ring 14, and the number of teeth of the inner gear ring 14 is an integer multiple of the number of teeth 231.

[0038] It should be noted that the meshing connection between the inner gear ring 14 and the teeth 231 can prevent the roller 23 from slipping when the orbit 11 and the roller 23 rotate relative to each other, and can prevent the earth's axis from shifting due to the lengthening of the rotation path of the roller 23, so that when the roller 23 rotates along the orbit 11, the earth's axis of the globe 20 remains consistent after reaching the four seasons calibration points 12, which is beneficial for teaching observation; the number of teeth four of the inner gear ring 14 is an integer multiple of the number of teeth 231, which ensures that the direction of the earth's axis of the globe 20 remains consistent when reaching the four seasons calibration points 12, and can make one globe 20 have the teaching effect of four globes 20, can save the globes 20 used in teaching, and maximize the utilization of teaching aids resources.

[0039] In one possible implementation, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 A support rod 45 is disposed at the top of the driving shaft 411 , and the light source 30 is disposed on the support rod 45 and is flush with the center height of the globe 20 .

[0040] It should be noted that the support rod 45 is coaxially arranged with the driving shaft 411 and can rotate along with the driving shaft 411. The light source 30 is flush with the center of the earth of the globe 20. When the globe 20 reaches the four season calibration points 12, the spherical surfaces of the globe 20 relative to the light source 30 can be illuminated by the light source 30, which can simulate the environment of the earth in daytime, and is conducive to simulation teaching.

[0041] In one possible implementation, see Figure 1 The light source 30 is a direct light source 30 , and the light emitted by the light source 30 can cover the marker 21 .

[0042] It should be noted that the light source 30 can be a focusing flashlight to make the light more concentrated and avoid the blurred shadow affecting the measurement; the focusing light source 30 has a smaller illumination area, and the light source 30 rotates with the driving shaft 411 and can always cover the benchmark 21, so that when the globe 20 reaches the four seasons calibration point 12, the shadow of the benchmark 21 is projected on the globe 20, avoiding errors in the shadow length caused by incomplete light coverage, making the observation effect of the shadow length of the benchmark 21 more obvious.

[0043] In one possible implementation, see Figure 5 A grid paper 24 is provided on the globe 20 , and the grid paper 24 is sleeved on the pole 21 and is perpendicular to the pole 21 .

[0044] It should be noted that when the shadow of the benchmark 21 is projected on the surface of the globe 20, the curved surface of the globe 20 is not conducive to the measurement of the shadow length, and a large measurement error will occur when measuring the shadow length of the benchmark 21. By setting the grid paper 24, the shadow of the benchmark 21 is projected on the grid paper 24, and the grid paper 24 can be provided with a scale. Since the grid paper 24 is a plane, the error can be reduced when measuring the shadow length of the benchmark 21, making the measurement result more accurate.

[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
