[0034] Please see Figures 1 to 4This utility model proposes a foldable air imaging device 100 for museums, including a housing 1, an air imaging component 2, and a support component 3. A first spherical groove 11 is formed at the bottom of the housing 1, and a light-emitting side 12 is formed on the housing 1. The air imaging component 2 includes a display 21 and an air imaging plate 22, both of which are disposed within the housing 1. The display 21 is used to output different patterns, and the air imaging plate 22 is used to output the patterns displayed on the display 21 to form aerial patterns. The light-emitting side 12 is used to display the aerial patterns. The support component 3 includes a chassis 31. The support component 32 includes a first support rod 321 and a second support rod 322 that are telescopically connected to each other. The end of the first support rod 321 away from the second support rod 322 is connected to the chassis 31. The end of the second support rod 322 away from the first support rod 321 forms a first spherical hinge block 322a, which is hinged to a first spherical groove 11. Specifically, during the display, the chassis 31 is placed in a suitable position, and then the display 21 is activated. The display 21 outputs a pattern, which is then projected onto an aerial image. The air imaging plate 22 diffracts the pattern into the air inside the housing 1, and then the light-emitting side 12 displays the pattern, allowing the user to observe the pattern in the air. To make the user's observation more comfortable, the housing 1 can be rotated so that the first spherical hinge block 322a rotates in the first spherical groove 11, adjusting the angle between the light-emitting side 12 and the horizontal plane. This allows adjustment of the position of the pattern in the air, making the user's observation more comfortable. After the display is completed, the monitor 21 is turned off, and then the housing 1 is rotated so that the second support rod 322 rotates to fit against the housing 1. The rod 322 retracts into the first support rod 321, thus folding the entire foldable air imaging device 100 for museums, greatly reducing its volume and thus significantly reducing the difficulty of handling and improving handling efficiency. In this embodiment, by setting a telescopic structure and a spherical hinge structure, the foldable air imaging device 100 for museums is folded to the maximum extent, reducing its volume, thereby reducing the difficulty of handling, improving handling efficiency, and preventing congestion.
[0035] Please see Figures 1 to 3In one embodiment, the first support rod 321 has a telescopic cavity 321a and a mounting hole 321b communicating with the telescopic cavity 321a. The second support rod 322 has a plurality of fixing grooves 322b spaced apart along the length direction of the second support rod 322. The support assembly 3 also includes a locking member 33, which passes through the mounting hole 321b and abuts against the bottom of one of the fixing grooves 322b. During the exhibition, the second support rod 322 can be extended and retracted within the telescopic cavity 321a of the first support rod 321 to adjust the position of the box 1, thereby adjusting the height and position of the aerial pattern. After adjustment, the locking member 33 is passed through the mounting hole 321b and abuts against the bottom of the corresponding fixing groove 322b, thus fixing the first support rod 321 and the second support rod 322 together to prevent changes in the height and position of the aerial pattern. After the exhibition, the locking member 33 is removed, causing the second support rod 322 to retract within the telescopic cavity 321a of the first support rod 321, aligning the uppermost fixing groove 322b of the second support rod 322 with the mounting hole 321b. Then, the locking member 33 is passed through the mounting hole 321b and abuts against the uppermost fixing groove 322b of the second support rod 322, thus shortening the length of the support component 32 to its minimum and preventing the second support rod 322 from extending out of the telescopic cavity 321a of the first support rod 321 during transportation, thus preventing it from interfering with transportation.
[0036] Please see Figure 6 and Figure 7 In one embodiment, the chassis 31 includes a first support portion 311 and two second support portions 312. The first support portion 311 is connected to the support member 32. Both ends of the first support portion 311 are formed with connecting plates 311a. Each connecting plate 311a is formed with a first groove 311b extending along the length direction of the connecting plate 311a. Each second support portion 312 is formed with a second groove 312a and a connecting rod 312b. Both ends of the connecting rod 312b are respectively connected to the two side walls of the second groove 312a. One connecting rod 312b is rotatably and slidably connected to one of the first grooves 311b, and the other connecting rod 312b is rotatably and slidably connected to the other first groove 311b. After the exhibition is completed, the two second support parts 312 are pulled away from each other, so that the connecting rods 312b of each of the two second support parts 312 will slide in the first grooves 311b of the connecting plates 311a on both sides of the first support part 311. When the connecting rods 312b slide to the limit of the first grooves 311b, the second support parts 312 are rotated, so that the two second support parts 312 fold toward the first support part 311. This reduces the size of the chassis 31 and further reduces the volume of the foldable air imaging device 100 for museums.
[0037] In one embodiment, a snap-fit block is formed at the bottom of the second support portion 312, and a snap-fit groove is formed at the bottom of the first support portion 311. The snap-fit block can be used to snap into the snap-fit groove. When the two second support portions 312 are folded, in order to prevent the second support portion 312 from rotating or moving during transportation, the snap-fit block is snapped into the snap-fit groove at the bottom of the first support portion 311. This fixes the second support portion 312, thereby preventing the second support portion 312 from rotating or moving during transportation.
[0038] Please see Figure 5 In one embodiment, the first support rod 321 includes a rotating shaft 321c, a first connecting section 321d, and a second connecting section 321e. One end of the first connecting section 321d is connected to the second support rod 322, and the other end of the first connecting section 321d forms a spaced first support block 321f. Both ends of the rotating shaft 321c are respectively connected to the two first support blocks 321f. The first end of the second support rod 322 is connected to the chassis 31, and the second end of the second support rod 322 forms a second support block 321g. The second support block 321g forms a rotating hole, and the rotating shaft 321c is rotatably installed in the rotating hole. After the exhibition is completed, the second support rod 322 is driven to rotate toward the first support rod 321, so that the rotating shaft 321c rotates in the rotating hole until the first connecting end and the second connecting end abut. This is equivalent to reducing the length of the first support rod 321, thereby further reducing the volume of the foldable air imaging device 100 for museums.
[0039] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment, a second spherical hinge block 321i is formed at the end of the first support rod 321 away from the second support rod 322, and a second spherical groove 313 is formed on the chassis 31. The second spherical hinge block 321i is hinged to the second spherical groove 313. After the display is completed, the display 21 is turned off, and then the cabinet 1 is rotated so that the second support rod 322 rotates to fit against the cabinet 1. The chassis 31 is rotated so that the chassis 31 fits against the first support rod 321. Then the second support rod 322 is retracted into the first support rod 321. In this way, the entire foldable air imaging device 100 for museums is folded, greatly reducing the volume of the foldable air imaging device 100 for museums. This greatly reduces the difficulty of handling and improves the handling efficiency.
[0040] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3In one embodiment, the housing 1 has a movable groove 13, which is located vertically above the air imaging plate 22. The display 21 is slidably mounted in the movable groove 13. The display 21 moves in the movable groove 13 along its extension direction, and the light emitted by the display 21 also moves in the same direction. Thus, the aerial pattern diffracted by the air imaging plate 22 also moves in the same direction, which shortens the distance between the aerial pattern and the observer, making it easier for the user to observe.
[0041] Please see Figure 2 In one embodiment, the foldable air imaging device 100 for museums also includes a drive cylinder 4. The extension shaft of the drive cylinder 4 is connected to the display 21, and the extension direction of the drive cylinder 4 is on the same horizontal line as the extension direction of the moving groove 13. The drive cylinder 4 enables automated adjustment of the movement of the display 21, reducing manual operation and labor intensity.
[0042] Please refer to Figure 4 In one embodiment, the air imaging assembly 2 further includes a polarizing film 5, which is attached to the side of the air imaging plate 22 facing away from the display 21. During illumination, part of the light emitted by the display 21 is transmitted along the original light path, and the polarizing film 5 can block the transmission of this part of the light.
[0043] In one embodiment, the foldable air imaging device 100 for museums also includes a control host housed within the housing 1. The control host is signal-connected to the drive cylinder 4 and is used for signal connection with external mobile devices. With this structure, when the position of the display 21 is needed, the operator only needs to issue a command via an external mobile device, such as a mobile phone, remote control, or computer. The control host will then receive the command and drive the drive cylinder 4 accordingly, thus enabling remote control.
[0044] The above are merely exemplary embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of this utility model and the contents of the specification and drawings of this utility model, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
