Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of simulated plant ornaments technology, specifically a prefabricated simulated plant ornament based on 3D printing manufacturing. Background Technology

[0002] 3D printing is a technology that creates three-dimensional solids by depositing materials layer by layer, directly shaping based on digital models (such as CAD files) without the need for traditional cutting or molds. The core process of 3D printing includes:

[0003] Modeling: Use CAD software (such as Fusion 360) or 3D scanning to generate the model and export it as an STL / OBJ file.

[0004] Slicing: The model is layered using slicing software (such as Cura) to generate G-code that can be recognized by the printer.

[0005] Printing: The printer deposits materials (such as molten plastic, resin, metal powder) layer by layer according to instructions.

[0006] Post-processing: removal of supports, sanding, painting, etc., to improve surface quality.

[0007] Prefabricated artificial plant ornaments manufactured using 3D printing technology combine the advantages of modular design, lightweight structure, ecological aesthetics, and rapid customized production, making them suitable for interior decoration, commercial displays, and landscape design. While existing prefabricated artificial plant ornaments employ modular design, their assembly and connection methods, including simple snap-fit ​​installation for most parts, are insufficient for maintaining stability when connecting the main stem, support rods, and base due to the significant weight load on the bottom. Complex positioning structures (such as bolt connections) result in cumbersome installation and disassembly processes and high operational difficulty. Furthermore, existing artificial plant ornaments, with their fixed placement, present inconvenience in adjustment and display.

[0008] Therefore, in view of the above-mentioned problems, this technical solution proposes an assembled simulated plant ornament based on 3D printing manufacturing. Utility Model Content

[0009] The purpose of this invention is to provide an assembled simulated plant ornament based on 3D printing to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0010] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0011] A modular artificial plant ornament manufactured using 3D printing includes an artificial plant ornament body and a rotating display base. The artificial plant ornament body is detachably installed on the rotating display base. The artificial plant ornament body adopts a modular design and includes an artificial plant main stem and artificial plant branches. The rotating display base includes an artificial plant ornament base and a rotating chassis installed inside the top of the artificial plant ornament base. The bottom of the artificial plant main stem and artificial plant branches are installed on the rotating chassis through limiting connectors. The limiting connectors have the advantages of convenient installation and disassembly and stable connection. At the same time, leaves or petals are installed on the artificial plant main stem and artificial plant branches through hexagonal snap-fit ​​connectors. Since the leaves and petals are lightweight, the hexagonal snap-fit ​​connectors can be used to quickly install or separate them from the artificial plant main stem and artificial plant branches, and can ensure the stability after installation.

[0012] The limiting connector includes a connecting base rod installed at the bottom of the main stem and branches of the artificial plant via a hexagonal snap-fit. A limiting pin is installed at the bottom of the connecting base rod, and a limiting slot is formed on the top of the rotating base corresponding to the limiting pin. The limiting pin is inserted into the limiting slot. Simultaneously, at least two sets of evenly distributed limiting holes are formed on the circumferential sidewall of the limiting pin. A radially telescopic limiting pin is provided on the inner sidewall of the limiting slot corresponding to the limiting hole. A buffer hole is formed in the inner wall of the limiting slot corresponding to the limiting pin, and the limiting pin is placed inside the buffer hole for telescopic movement. The inner end of the moving limit pin is connected to a buffer spring via a connecting block. The end of the buffer spring away from the connecting block is fixed to the inner wall of the buffer hole. The top of the connecting block is connected to a lever via a connecting rod. A sliding opening is provided on the upper side of the buffer hole corresponding to the connecting rod. The lever is placed on the upper side of the sliding opening and moves along the sliding opening. The width of the lever is greater than the width of the sliding opening, so that the lever moves stably inside the sliding opening. Under the connection of the connecting rod, the connecting block is pushed to control the movement of the limit pin inside the limit slot. Then, it cooperates with the limit hole to perform radial and circumferential positioning of the limit pin inserted into the inner wall of the limit slot.

[0013] When the buffer spring is in its free state, the end of the control limit pin extends fully into the limit slot. At the same time, the end of the limit pin is set with an inclined surface structure. That is, as the limit pin descends towards the inside of the limit slot, a downward pressure is gradually applied to the inclined surface of the end of the limit pin until the limit pin is inserted into the limit hole. At this time, the limit slot is completely moved into the inside of the limit pin, thereby maintaining a stable connection between the limit pin and the limit slot. When disassembling, the limit pin is moved away from the limit hole by manually pushing the lever. Then, the limit pin can be lifted directly upward.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: by using the limiting pin and the buffer spring together, the main stem, branches and base are automatically locked, and there is no loosening after bearing the load.

[0015] The disassembly process is simplified by using a lever to control the limit pin to disengage from the limit hole.

[0016] The rotating chassis is driven by a servo motor to rotate slowly, enhancing the visual appeal.

[0017] The hexagonal connectors allow for quick installation of branches, leaves, and petals, while preventing them from rotating and falling off.

[0018] The main structure is made of PETG / nylon, while the branches and leaves are made of TPU / flexible resin, combining strength with a realistic tactile feel. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-7 A prefabricated artificial plant ornament based on 3D printing is disclosed, comprising an artificial plant ornament body and a rotating display base. The artificial plant ornament body is detachably installed on the rotating display base. The artificial plant ornament body adopts a prefabricated design and includes an artificial plant main stem 12 and artificial plant branches 13. The rotating display base includes an artificial plant ornament base 10 and a rotating base 11 that is rotatably installed inside the top of the artificial plant ornament base 10. The bottom of the artificial plant main stem 12 and artificial plant branches 13 are installed on the rotating base 11 through limiting connectors. The limiting connectors have the advantages of convenient installation and disassembly and stable connection. At the same time, branches and leaves 29 or petals 30 are installed on the artificial plant main stem 12 and artificial plant branches 13 through hexagonal snap-fit ​​connectors. Since the branches and leaves 29 and petals 30 are lightweight, they can be quickly installed or separated from the artificial plant main stem 12 and artificial plant branches 13 by using hexagonal snap-fit ​​connectors, and the stability after installation can be guaranteed.

[0032] The limiting connector includes a connecting base rod 14 installed at the bottom of the artificial plant main stem 12 and artificial plant branches 13 via a hexagonal snap-fit ​​component. A limiting pin 15 is installed at the bottom of the connecting base rod 14. A limiting groove 16 is opened on the top of the rotating base 11 corresponding to the limiting pin 15. The limiting pin 15 is inserted into the limiting groove 16. At the same time, at least two sets of evenly distributed limiting holes 32 are opened on the circumferential side wall of the limiting pin 15. A radially telescopic limiting pin 23 is provided on the inner side wall of the limiting groove 16 corresponding to the limiting hole 32. A buffer hole 24 is opened in the inner wall of the limiting groove 16 corresponding to the limiting pin 23. The limiting pin 23 is placed inside the buffer hole 24 and telescopically moves. The inner end of the limiting pin 23 is connected to a buffer spring 26 via a connecting block 25. The end of the buffer spring 26 away from the connecting block 25 is fixed to the inner wall of the buffer hole 24. The top of the connecting block 25 is connected to a lever 21 via a connecting rod. A sliding opening 20 is provided on the upper side of the buffer hole 24 corresponding to the connecting rod. The lever 21 is placed on the upper side of the sliding opening 20 and moves along the sliding opening 20. The width of the lever 21 is greater than the width of the sliding opening 20, so that the lever 21 can move stably inside the sliding opening 20. Thus, under the connection of the connecting rod, the connecting block 25 is pushed to control the limiting pin 23 to move inside the limiting slot 16. Then, it cooperates with the limiting hole 32 to perform radial and circumferential positioning of the limiting pin 15 inserted into the inner wall of the limiting slot 16.

[0033] When the buffer spring 26 is in a free state, the end of the control limit pin 23 extends fully into the limit slot 16. At the same time, the end of the limit pin 23 is set with an inclined surface structure. That is, when the limit pin 15 descends toward the inside of the limit slot 16, the inclined surface of the end of the limit pin 23 is gradually pressed downward until the limit pin 23 is inserted into the limit hole 32. At this time, the limit slot 16 is completely moved into the inside of the limit pin 15, thereby maintaining a stable connection between the limit pin 15 and the limit slot 16. When disassembling, the limit pin 23 is moved away from the limit hole 32 by manually pushing the lever 21. At this time, the limit pin 23 can be moved out of the limit hole 32, and the limit pin 15 can be lifted upward directly.

[0034] The top wall of the rotating base 11 corresponding to the lever 21 is provided with a lever groove 19, and a cover plate 22 is embedded in the top of the lever groove 19. That is, through the cooperation of the lever groove 19 and the cover plate 22, the sliding opening 20 and the lever 21 are kept fully closed, thereby reducing the aesthetic impact caused by their direct exposure.

[0035] The limiting slot 16 has a positioning groove 18 in the middle, and the limiting pin 15 has a positioning pin 17 installed in the bottom middle. When the limiting pin 15 is inserted into the limiting slot 16, the positioning pin 17 is pre-positioned by pre-contact with the positioning groove 18.

[0036] In this embodiment of the invention, the hexagonal snap-fit ​​component includes hexagonal snap-fit ​​holes 27 opened on the outer side wall of the artificial plant main stem 12, the artificial plant branch 13, and the top of the connecting base rod 14. Hexagonal snap-fit ​​pins 28 are provided at the bottom of the artificial plant main stem 12, the artificial plant branch 13, the branches and leaves 29, and the bottom of the petals 30. The hexagonal positioning of the hexagonal snap-fit ​​pins 28 and the hexagonal snap-fit ​​holes 27 can prevent rotation after installation and provide quick installation and disassembly.

[0037] It should be noted that a petal base 31 is installed at the bottom of the petal 30, and a hexagonal locking pin 28 is installed in the middle of the bottom of the petal base 31. The hexagonal locking holes 27 on the outer side wall of the artificial plant branch 13 and the artificial plant main stem 12 are all set to be inclined upward opening. That is, after the hexagonal locking pin 28 is inserted, the branches 29 and petals 30 are all placed upward, which increases the stability after the locking by using the effect of gravity.

[0038] The hexagonal locking hole 27 at the top of the connecting base rod 14 is designed to open vertically upwards, and the hexagonal locking pins 28 at the bottom of the simulated plant main stem 12 and simulated plant branches 13 are designed to cooperate with it to ensure full stability after insertion.

[0039] In one embodiment of the present invention, see [reference] Figure 4 The rotating base 11 has a power chamber 35 located on the lower side of the interior corresponding to the artificial plant ornament base 10. A driven tooth 38 is connected to the bottom center of the rotating base 11. A driving tooth 37 is engaged on one side of the driven tooth 38. A servo motor 36 fixed to the bottom of the power chamber 35 is connected to the bottom center of the driving tooth 37. The servo motor 36 drives the driving tooth 37 to rotate. Then, the rotation of the rotating base 11 is stably controlled by the engagement of the driving tooth 37 and the driven tooth 38, thereby rotating and displaying the artificial plant ornament body installed on the rotating base 11.

[0040] Specifically, a T-shaped slider 39 is installed on the circumferential side wall of the rotating base 11. A T-shaped groove 40 is opened in the inner wall of the artificial plant ornament base 10 corresponding to the T-shaped slider 39. The T-shaped slider 39 rotates and connects along the inside of the T-shaped groove 40, thereby maintaining stable rotation between the rotating base 11 and the artificial plant ornament base 10, that is, maintaining axial stability.

[0041] In this embodiment of the invention, the materials of the artificial plant ornament base 10, rotating base 11, artificial plant main stem 12, artificial plant branch 13, connecting base rod 14 and limiting pin 15 can be selected as PETG / nylon, which has high rigidity and good weather resistance.

[0042] For branches and leaves 29 and petals 30, TPU / flexible resin can be selected, which has the characteristics of being bendable and having a soft touch. At the same time, in the design, transparent resin + dyeing can also be used to dye branches and leaves 29, petals 30, artificial plant main stem 12, artificial plant branches 13, etc., to simulate the appearance of real plants. The specific choice depends on the actual situation and will not be elaborated here.

[0043] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
