A fifth gear 16 and the first rotating wheel 18 are fixedly connected to the second rotating shaft 17. A second rotating wheel 32 is rotatably connected to the support plate 20. The second rotating wheel 32 is connected to the first rotating wheel 18 via a transmission chain 19. Two or more connectors 23 are fixedly connected to the transmission chain 19. The connectors 23 have block grooves 24. The support block 21 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the block groove 24. The support block 21 is connected to the inner wall of the block groove 24 through the first elastic member 22. A second permanent magnet 34 is fixedly connected to the support block 21. Two or more pattern bodies 27 are connected to the pattern ring 25. The bottom wall of the pattern ring 25 has two ring grooves 26.

One of the support blocks 21 on the right transmission chain 19 abuts against the inner wall of the other ring groove 26.

[0029] According to an optional embodiment of the present invention, the length of the left second rotating shaft 17 is longer than the length of the right second rotating shaft 17, and the length of the left first rotating shaft 15 is longer than the length of the right first rotating shaft 15.

[0030] According to an optional embodiment of the present invention, a lamp holder is provided inside the lamp post 28, and an LED bulb can be detachably installed on the lamp holder.

[0031] According to an optional embodiment of the present invention, the lamp post 28 has a through hole, through which the power cord passes and is electrically connected to the LED bulb.

[0032] According to an optional embodiment of the present invention, an aluminum heat sink is connected to the surface of the lamp post 28.

[0033] In one optional embodiment of the present invention, the outer diameter of the second gear 9 is smaller than the outer diameter of the first gear 6.

[0034] In one optional embodiment of the present invention, the motor 8 is a geared motor.

[0035] According to an optional embodiment of the present invention, the translucent fabric 3 is made of polyester.

[0036] According to an optional embodiment of the present invention, the material of the light-shielding cover 2 includes PVC.

[0037] According to an optional embodiment of the present invention, the base 1 is provided with a wireless module.

[0038] According to an optional embodiment of the present invention, the patterned ring 25 is made of a deformable material.

[0039] Implementation process:

[0040] Turning on the power illuminates the LED bulbs, causing the light column 28 to glow. The light from the light column 28 shines onto the translucent cloth 3. The pattern body 27 blocks the light, and the shadow of one of the pattern bodies 27 appears on the translucent cloth 3. The pattern body 27 can be, for example, as shown in the image. Figure 1 The elk pattern shown has different antler shapes on each pattern body 27. When the motor 8 is turned on, the second gear 9 rotates, which in turn drives the first gear 6, the rotating column 5, the rotating seat 7, the support plate 20, the pattern ring 25, the pattern body 27, and the third gear 12 to rotate. The third gear 12 revolves around the sun, so that the shadows of different pattern bodies 27 are presented one by one on the translucent cloth 3, which can show the audience the changing seasons of the elk antlers.

[0041] Pattern 27 can also be other shapes, such as patterns of different stages in the process of a tadpole evolving into a frog, or patterns of different stages in the process of human development, etc., without limitation here.

[0042] When the pattern ring 25 needs to be replaced, the two highest support blocks 21 are located above the light shield 2. Simply align the two ring grooves 26 on the new pattern ring 25 with the two highest support blocks 21 and insert them. The two support blocks 21 will support the inner wall of the ring grooves 26, thus supporting the pattern ring 25. There is no need to insert the pattern ring 25 into the light shield 2, which would cause alignment and connection difficulties. Activate the two electromagnets 31, causing them to generate a magnetic attraction between the electromagnets 31 and the permanent magnets 29. This causes the permanent magnets 29 and the slide block 14 to overcome the elastic force of the second elastic element 30 and move away from the electromagnets 31. After the fourth gear 13 moves, it meshes with the fifth gear 16 and the third gear 12. When one of the third gears 12 revolves, it will rotate due to its meshing with the gear ring 10, thereby driving the rotating rod 33 and the other third gear 12 to rotate. The fourth gear 13, the fifth gear 16, the second shaft 17, the first wheel 18, the transmission chain 19, and the second wheel 32 are driven to rotate, thereby causing the connector 23 and the support block 21 to rotate. The new pattern ring 25 moves down to the position of the pattern ring 25 to be replaced, completing the replacement. When the second permanent magnet 34 moves down to the same horizontal plane as the third permanent magnet 35, the third permanent magnet 35 magnetically attracts the second permanent magnet 34. The support block 21 overcomes the elastic force of the first elastic member 22 and moves away from the ring groove 26. The support block 21 releases the support of the pattern ring 25 to be replaced, and the pattern ring 25 to be replaced falls to the top wall of the rotating seat 7. The user can then take out the pattern ring 25 to be replaced through the part retrieval channel 4. The notch on the pattern ring 25 is made of a deformable material, allowing the pattern ring 25 to pass smoothly through the lamp post 28. The deformable material can be plastic.

[0043] After the two electromagnets 31 are de-energized, the slide block 14 can be reversed and reset under the elastic force of the second elastic element 30. The fourth gear 13 disengages from the fifth gear 16 and the third gear 12, the transmission chain 19 stops rotating, and the new pattern ring 25 maintains its current height.

[0044] This invention enables the shadows of pattern bodies 27 to be projected one by one onto the light-transmitting cloth 3 through the drive of the motor 8, allowing viewers to appreciate and learn. When the pattern ring 25 needs to be replaced, there is no need to insert the pattern ring 25 into the light-shielding cover 2, which would make installation difficult. The pattern ring 25 can be installed in a place with good visibility outside the light-shielding cover 2. The pattern ring 25 can be replaced and the pattern on the light-transmitting cloth 3 can be adjusted by the motor 8 and the drive of the electromagnet 31. The pattern ring 25 to be replaced can be quickly removed without disassembly, improving the convenience and efficiency of the replacement operation. There is no need to set up multiple motors 8 to drive the movement of two transmission chains 19.

[0045] The components, modules, mechanisms, and devices in this utility model that are not described in detail are all general standard parts or components known to those skilled in the art. Their structures and principles can be learned by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods.

Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
