Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of photography and videography, in particular to a dynamic water simulation device for photography. Background Art

[0002] Traditional devices used to simulate water systems in photography have limited functionality and are unable to simultaneously simulate phenomena such as waves and vortices. An existing solution is a magnetic mixer: using a magnetic mixer with a rotor to stir water in a cup, creating a vortex effect, is intuitive and easy to use. However, this method can be limited by its small size and inability to simulate more complex water waves and vortices. It requires selecting the appropriate cup and rotor to control the depth and width of the vortex, making operation more cumbersome.

[0003] Existing wave generators, such as push-plate devices, are suitable for generating shallow or deep water waves, but may not be able to simulate the complexities of natural waves. Regular wave generators can only produce regular waves with a fixed period and amplitude, lacking the randomness and complexity of natural waves. Irregular wave generators, while capable of simulating more natural waves, require complex control systems and advanced technical requirements, and are costly. Utility Model Content

It should be noted that the words "front", "rear", "left", "right", "up" and "down", "bottom" and "top" used in the following description refer to the directions in the drawings, and the words "inside" and "outside" refer to the directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.

[0037] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] Design Concept: Design a product that can be used in a studio with an LED screen in a specific setting. Using a physical simulation device, a mechanical push plate is moved to a stationary position within a large pool of water, simulating water flow, waves, and vortices at different locations and depths. An adjustable simulation device is designed to use a motor to drive the push plate or rotor to move across the water surface, creating wave and vortex effects to suit different filming requirements and complete the virtual shooting scene.

[0039] Example 1:

[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the technical solution provided by the utility model is a dynamic water simulation device for photography, including a photography site 101, an LED screen 105, a pool 106 and a camera 104. The LED screen 105 is provided in the photography site 101, and the pool 106 is provided in the middle of the photography site 101. The camera 104 is arranged opposite the LED screen 105. Furthermore, it also includes a wave simulation device 102 and a simulated vortex device 103. The wave simulation device 102 is provided at the edge of the pool 106, and the simulated vortex device 103 is provided in the middle.

[0041] like Figure 1 The following diagram shows the detailed structure of the simulated water system, which consists of a filming area 101, a wave simulator 102, a simulated vortex device 103, a camera 104, an LED screen 105, a pool 106, and a photography tripod 107. On the ground of filming area 101, a 12-meter semicircle and a 12-meter by 6-meter rectangular LED screen 105 are enclosed. Below filming area 101, at the center of LED screen 105, is a large 6-meter by 6-meter pool 106. Inside pool 106, four wave simulators 102 and one simulated vortex device 103 can be seen. A photography tripod 107 is placed in front of LED screen 105, and atop it is camera 104. This integrated structure creates the conditions for virtual filming. During filming of the simulated water system, the large LED screen 105 provides a realistic virtual backdrop, making the scenes more immersive and engaging. The wave simulation device 102 and vortex simulation device 103 provide dynamic water effects for photography, increasing visual impact and artistic expression. The wave size, frequency, and vortex intensity can be adjusted according to shooting requirements to achieve diverse shooting effects. Compared with traditional water photography, this simulation system can be reused in a controlled environment, reducing dependence on natural water bodies and saving costs and resources.

[0042] like Figure 2The figure shows a structural diagram of a specific simulated vortex device 103, which consists of a rotating blade 201, a rotating shaft 202, a housing 203, a bearing 204, an outer rotor 205, an inner rotor 206, a magnet 207, a shaft cover 208, an M8 nut 209, an M8 bolt 210, a sealing isolation sleeve 211, an output shaft 212, a reducer 213, a motor 214 and an M10 bolt 215. Motor 1 214 is secured to reducer 213 via M10 bolts 215. Output shaft 1 212, reducer 213, motor 1 214, and M10 bolts 215 form a bearing system (i.e., a drive mechanism) that supports and guides the rotation of the inner wheel, reducing friction and wear and improving transmission efficiency and reliability. At the output end of reducer 213 is output shaft 1 212, secured by a keyway to shaft cover 208. The outer rotor 205, inner rotor 206, magnet 207, and sealing sleeve 211 form a magnetic coupling based on magnetic field interaction. When outer rotor 205 rotates, the magnetic force of magnet 207 causes inner rotor 206 to follow, achieving power transmission. Rotating shaft 202 and bearing 204 are located within reservoir 106, isolated from reservoir 106 by M8 nuts 209 and M8 bolts 210, creating a seal. The components outside reservoir 106 are finally enclosed in outer casing 203. Finally, the whole body is fixed on the simulated vortex cross slide 502, which enables the rotating shaft 202 to be in different positions under the pool 106. There are three retractable shafts on the shaft, which can be retracted to different heights. According to the needs of the site, the generation of vortices is achieved at different water depths; the rotating blades 201 are fixed on the rotating shaft 202, and are also retractable, and can be extended to different lengths according to needs. The overall working process of this part is: when a certain size of vortex is required for photography, the rotating blades 201 and the rotating shaft 202 are adjusted to the appropriate length, and then the output shaft 212 of the motor 214 drives the magnetic coupling to rotate. The rotating blades 201 and the rotating shaft 202 are fixed on the magnetic coupling. According to the shooting requirements, different speeds are required to generate different vortex sizes to achieve photography.

[0043] like Figure 3The diagram shows the structure of the wave-pushing drive in wave simulation device 102. It consists of motor 2 301, output shaft 2 302, coupling 303, fixed baffle 304, support end 305, ball screw 306, screw nut 307, fixed end 308, and nut holder 309. The output end of motor 2 301 is output shaft 2 302, which is connected to ball screw 306 via coupling 303. Ball screw 306, which comprises support end 305, screw nut 307, fixed end 308, and nut holder 309, forms a transmission mechanism, converting the rotational motion of motor 2 301 into linear motion. Coupling 303 connects output shaft 2 302 of motor 2 301 and ball screw 306, ensuring stable power transmission. It works in conjunction with ball screw 306 to achieve precise linear motion control.

[0044] like Figure 4 The figure shows the structure of the wave pushing mechanism in the wave simulation device 102, which consists of an optical axis base 401, an optical axis 402, a slider 403, a guide rail 404, a base plate 405, a support block 406, a triangular block 407, and a baffle 408. The optical axis base 401, optical axis 402, and guide rail 404 are fixed to the base plate 405 and maintained on the same horizontal plane, while the slider 403 moves on the guide rail 404. The support block 406 and triangular block 407 are mounted on the slider 403. The support block 406, triangular block 407, and optical axis 402 together secure the baffle 408.

[0045] like Figure 5 The figure shows a schematic diagram of a water pool, which also includes a wave simulation cross slide 501 and a vortex simulation cross slide 502. The wave simulation cross slides 501 are arranged around the outside of the water pool 106, and a vortex simulation cross slide 502 is arranged at the bottom. A wave simulation device 102 is installed above the wave simulation cross slide 501; a vortex simulation device 103 is mounted on the vortex simulation cross slide 502. This allows for simulations to be performed at various locations in the water pool, achieving the desired effect. For reasons of water pool sealing and cost, this product also allows for the creation of vortices by freely installing the vortex simulation device 103 at five fixed locations within the water pool 106: top, bottom, left, right, and center.

[0046] The specific working process of this product:

[0047] Combine Figure 1-Figure 5As shown, this product is powered by motor 2 301, which rotates ball screw 306 via output shaft 2 302 and coupling 303. The rotation of ball screw 306 drives screw nut 307 along its axis, driving slider 403 in linear motion on guide rail 404. Base plate 405 secures optical axis holder 401, optical axis 402, and guide rail 404, ensuring overall system stability. The movement of slider 403 drives support block 406, triangular block 407, and baffle 408 to simulate wave fluctuations. The slider can be attached to a photographic subject (such as a ship model or an ecological display) to cause it to rise and fall with the movement of baffle 408. The wave-simulating cross slide 501 and vortex-simulating cross slide 502 can be moved to various positions around the pool 106. The actual wave simulation results can be monitored, and the operating parameters of motor 2 301 can be adjusted in real time to ensure simulation accuracy.

[0048] Wave simulation process: The movement of the screw nut 307 drives the slider 403 to perform linear motion on the guide rail 404. The movement of the slider 403 drives the support block 406 and the triangular block 407, thereby causing the baffle 408 to simulate the ups and downs of the waves.

[0049] The process of simulating a vortex: the motor 214 drives the reducer 213, which drives the magnetic coupling to rotate through the output shaft 212. The rotation of the magnetic coupling drives the rotating shaft 202 and the rotating blade 201 to generate a vortex.

[0050] Photographic shooting process: The camera 104 is fixed by a photographic tripod 107 to capture the waves simulated by the baffle 408 and the vortex effect simulated by the rotating blades 201, while the LED screen 105 provides a realistic virtual background to enhance the visual effect.

[0051] This product can adjust the operating parameters of motor 2 301 and motor 1 214 in real time. The wave simulation cross slide 501 and vortex simulation cross slide 502 allow the wave simulation device 102 and vortex simulation device 103 to operate at different locations in the pool 106, achieving diverse simulation effects and ensuring the accuracy of the simulation effect.

[0052] Functions of this product:

[0053] It mainly enhances the visual effect and authenticity of the shooting by simulating the dynamic effects of water bodies (such as waves, whirlpools, etc.). In the studio with LED screens in specific scenes, the simulated water system device can provide a controllable water environment, allowing photographers to accurately control the speed, direction and shape of the water flow, so as to better realize creative ideas. The use of natural water bodies in actual shooting may be expensive and difficult to control. The simulation device can achieve the ideal shooting effect without adding additional costs. Improve safety: In some cases, there may be safety hazards in shooting with real water bodies. This simulation device can complete the shooting while ensuring the safety of actors and staff. Realize complex scenes: Some complex underwater or surface scenes are difficult to achieve in actual shooting. The simulation device can help photographers simulate these scenes on land.

[0054] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
