Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of teaching aids technology, and in particular to a wired or automatic adsorption modular device for children's programming education. Background Technology

[0002] In current children's programming education, while the traditional method of data transmission and control via cables can achieve some basic logic control functions, this method has several shortcomings in practical application, affecting educational effectiveness and children's learning experience. The specific drawbacks are as follows:

[0003] For children aged three to nine, traditional wiring methods often involve multiple steps and connecting multiple cables. These connections may include cables of different colors and shapes, and even require multiple plugging and unplugging between different hardware modules. For young children whose cognitive and operational skills are still developing, this complex process can easily lead to confusion and errors, affecting their learning interest and hands-on abilities. Traditional wiring often requires exposed cables and contact connections, which can pose certain safety hazards. For example, exposed wires can pose a risk of electric shock to children, especially when they are not sufficiently aware of electrical safety. Although some safety designs exist in the market, exposed wires can still easily cause unnecessary dangers in actual use. The use of traditional wiring methods makes it difficult for children to intuitively understand the logical relationship between programming and hardware. Children often cannot clearly understand the meaning of connecting each wire and its connection to the program logic, which makes the learning process lack visual feedback and cognitive understanding. Due to the lack of sufficient intuitiveness, children may find it difficult to truly grasp the concepts and principles of programming through practice.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a new device to address the problems of complexity, security, and lack of intuitiveness in traditional wired connection methods in children's programming education. Utility Model Content

[0028] Traditional methods of data transmission via cables have several drawbacks in children's programming education.

Third, the process lacks intuitiveness, making it difficult for children to understand the logical relationship between programming and hardware. Fourth, overly complex connection processes negatively impact children's hands-on skills and learning interest. Finally, the lack of sufficient visual feedback limits children's comprehensive grasp of programming concepts.

[0029] Therefore, this utility model provides a wired or automatic adsorption modular device for children's programming education, which solves the problems of complexity, safety and intuitiveness of traditional connection methods in children's programming education.

[0030] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0031] Please see Figure 1 A wired or wireless automatic adsorption modular device for children's programming education includes: a main control unit 10, a power source 30, an input unit 40, and an output unit 50, wherein the main control unit 10, the power source 30, the input unit 40, and the output unit 50 are adsorbed together by magnetic material or connected by wire; the power source 30, the input unit 40, and the output unit 50 are respectively connected to the main control unit 10.

[0032] Specifically, the input unit 40 is placed in the upper left of the main control unit 10, and the output unit 50 is placed in the lower right of the main control unit 10. Of course, other layouts are also possible.

[0033] Specifically, the main control unit 10 uses a Mega28P chip as the core controller, responsible for the control and data processing of the entire system. The RFID card reader module 20, located on the left, has wireless identification capabilities, enabling it to read RFID card information and achieve contactless interaction. The power source 30 provides a stable 5V power supply to ensure the normal operation of all components. The input unit 40 is specifically the upper interface, used to collect external signals or data, such as sensor inputs. The output unit 50 is specifically the lower interface, used to output energy or control signals to drive peripherals such as LEDs and motors.

[0034] Instead of relying on traditional physical connection cables, the various units automatically attract each other using magnetic materials, allowing for connections between modules without the need for manual plugging and unplugging of cables. This design not only significantly reduces the risks caused by improper connections but also makes the entire system more concise and aesthetically pleasing, making it especially suitable for young children.

[0035] Power source 30 supplies power to the entire system, ensuring the normal operation of all modules. Radio frequency card reader 20 exchanges information with the card via wireless communication technology, transmitting the read data to the main control unit 10. Input unit 40 collects information from the environment or other devices and sends it to the main control unit 10 for processing. After receiving data from card reader 20 and input unit 40, the main control unit 10 performs calculations according to preset program logic and issues corresponding instructions or responses through output unit 50.

[0036] Through the above design, this device effectively solves several key problems existing in traditional connection methods in children's programming education:

[0037] It eliminates cumbersome wiring steps, allowing children to focus more on learning programming itself. It avoids the risk of electric shock or other safety hazards caused by incorrect connections. The simple and easy-to-understand operation mode makes programming concepts easier for children to comprehend and accept.
