Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of model display technology, specifically relating to a ship model display cabinet. Background Technology
[0002] Ship models, as important carriers of maritime culture, maritime history, and industrial design, play a crucial role in cultural dissemination, product promotion, and collection and appreciation through their display. Existing ship model display cases primarily serve to protect the models and provide basic display space, but they suffer from significant shortcomings in terms of uniform lighting and thematic display effects, as detailed below:
[0003] In terms of lighting design, traditional ship model display cases generally use direct top lighting (such as spotlights or strip LED lights) or side point lighting. Such lighting layouts tend to create obvious shadows and light spots on the surface of the ship model. For example, the superstructure, masts, and other three-dimensional structures of the ship model will produce large-area projections under direct top lighting, obscuring the details of the hull. Uneven lighting not only affects the complete presentation of the ship model's appearance, but may also lead to viewers misjudging the size and texture of the ship model, seriously reducing the display effect.
[0004] In addition, most ship model display cases on the market currently use a fixed design for their back panels, which are usually made of a single color (such as white or black) or a fixed pattern of material (such as wood grain board or plain acrylic board). This fixed background cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the type of ship model. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a ship model display cabinet to achieve uniform lighting.
