[0016] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and through embodiments. The following embodiments are explanations of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.
[0017] See Figure 1-2 This embodiment relates to a magnifying glass 6 support for a clay miniature carving tool, including a base 1 and an outer cover 100 detachably connected thereto. The base 1, located inside the outer cover 100, is respectively provided with a platform 3 connected to the base 1 by a support rod 2, and multiple sets of storage cylinders 4 arranged at intervals around the periphery of the platform 3, and a magnifying glass 6 placed above the platform 3 by a connecting assembly 5. The connecting assembly 5 includes a connecting frame 50 formed by multiple sets of hinged connecting rods 51 and connecting plates 52, and connecting seats 53 and connecting heads 54 respectively hinged at both ends of the connecting frame 50. The connecting seats 53 act on the base 1, and a second connecting seat 55 hinged to the magnifying glass 6 is rotatably provided on the connecting head 54.
[0018] Specifically in this embodiment, such as Figure 1 The magnifying glass 6 support of this type of clay miniature carving tool is shown to have a detachable connection between the outer cover 100 and the base 1, which can be rotated through threaded structures on their corresponding walls. This allows for convenient use. Figure 2 As shown, by rotating the multiple sets of connecting rods 51 and connecting plates 52 in the connecting assembly 5, combined with the connecting seat 53 and the connecting head 54, the connecting frame 50 is made to be in a certain position. Figure 2In the example of the unfolded state, the magnifying glass 6, positioned above the platform, can be adjusted to different heights. Simultaneously, by rotating the second connecting seat 55 on the connecting head 54 and the magnifying glass 6 on the second connecting seat 55, the magnifying glass 6 can be adjusted to different angles. Corresponding micro-carving tools such as carving knives can be stored and retrieved from multiple storage cylinders 4. The required micro-carving clay sculptures can be handheld or placed on the platform 3 for carving operations by adjusting the position of the magnifying glass 6 using the connecting component 5. After use, the magnifying glass 6 can be rotated to return to its original position. Figure 1 The folded storage configuration shown, combined with the structural design of the connecting component 5 and the height setting of the support rod 2, allows the magnifying glass 6 to be placed above the stage 3. Finally, rotating the outer cover 100 connects and fixes it to the base 1, completing the storage process and facilitating subsequent business trips and retrieval. Furthermore, considering the structural design of miniature carving tools such as carving knives and the height setting of the corresponding storage tubes 4, as well as the appropriate gap between them and the outer cover 100, the sliding range of these tools within the storage tubes 4 ensures they will not slip out and fall off. The overall structure of this bracket, combined with the connecting component 5, allows for flexible adjustment of the magnifying glass 6 in different positions. The addition of the stage 3 and multiple storage tubes 4 on the base 1 facilitates the placement of miniature carving clay sculptures and other miniature carving tools. The stand allows for the storage and retrieval of carving tools. After use, the outer cover 100 provides protection for the magnifying glass 6 and the carving knives and other miniature carving tools in the storage tube 4. The folding and storage process of the connecting component 5 also makes it convenient to carry around, further enhancing the functionality, flexibility, and applicability of this stand. In addition, the base 1 can be customized with metal materials such as aluminum alloy according to usage requirements, ensuring the structural stability and support stability of the base 1 during use. The outer cover 100 can also be customized with transparent materials such as acrylic sheets, facilitating observation and further improving the overall appearance of this stand. When the outer cover 100 is removed from the base 1, it can also be used to temporarily store clay carving materials or tools, meeting different usage needs.
[0019] The base 1 is also provided with a second connecting component 7. The second connecting component 7 includes a second connecting frame 70 formed by multiple sets of hinged second connecting rods 71 and second connecting plates 72, and a third connecting seat 73 and a second connecting head 74 respectively hinged to both ends of the second connecting frame 70. The third connecting seat 73 acts on the base 1, and a fourth connecting seat 75 is rotatably provided on the second connecting head 74. Multiple sets of spaced third connecting heads 76 are rotatably provided on the fourth connecting seat 75. The second connecting component 7, which is similar in structure to the connecting component 5, can be set to a corresponding height according to the usage requirements. In use, it can be set according to the corresponding material of the workpiece to be carved, or the workpiece such as the preliminary shaped sculpture and the base used to support the sculpture can be fitted onto the multiple sets of fourth connecting seats 75 to adapt the structure. At the same time, the second connecting frame 70 can be unfolded by rotating the multiple sets of second connecting rods 71 and second connecting plates 72. Combined with the rotation process of the third connecting seat 73 and the second connecting head 74, the different positions of the workpiece to be carved can be flexibly adjusted to meet different carving needs and further improve the flexibility of this support.
[0020] See Figure 3 The second connecting seat 55 and the third connecting head 76 are respectively rotatably equipped with a first locking member 551 and a second locking member 761. The connecting head 54 is detachably connected to the second connecting seat 55, the second connecting head 74 is detachably connected to the fourth connecting seat 75, the fourth connecting seat 75 is detachably connected to the third connecting head 76, and the storage tube 4 and the support rod 2 are detachably connected to the base 1 via a plug-in structure 8. The first locking member 551 and the second locking member 761 can be designed as bolted connections, rotatably connected to the threaded holes on the corresponding walls of the second connecting seat 55 and the third connecting head 76, respectively. They are also detachably connected to the second connecting seat 55 via the through hole 61 on the magnifying glass 6 housing, facilitating disassembly, cleaning, and replacement of the magnifying glass 6. The second locking member 761 on the third connecting head 76 can clamp the object to be carved at a corresponding location during rotation, facilitating the carving process. The flexible adjustment, in addition, the plug-in structure 8 includes a connector 54, a second connector 74, a fourth connector 75, and a slot 81 opened on the base 1 and multiple sets of spaced annular grooves 811 opened on the inner wall of the slot 81. It also includes a second connector 55, a fourth connector 75, a third connector 76, a storage tube 4, and a support rod 2 with an adapter plug 82 inserted into the slot 81 at the bottom and multiple sets of protruding rings 821 spaced on the outer wall of the plug 82 that fit and engage with the annular grooves 811. This enables the detachable connection process of the connector 54 to the second connector 55, the second connector 74 to the third connector 73, the third connector 73 to the fourth connector 75, and the storage tube 4 and the support rod 2 to the base 1, respectively. This further improves the detachability and disassembly flexibility of the overall structure of this bracket, and facilitates the cleaning, replacement and other operations of the corresponding components.
[0021] See Figure 4 The support rod 2 includes a first rod body 21 and a second rod body 22 slidably mounted thereon. A third locking member 211 is rotatably mounted on the first rod body 21 and detachably connected to the base 1 via a plug-in structure 8. The platform 3 is detachably mounted in a ball groove at the top of the second rod body 22 via a ball seat 31 at the bottom. The plug 82 in the plug-in structure 8 is located at the bottom of the first rod body 21 to achieve the detachable connection between the support rod 2 and the base 1. The platform 3 can be extended and retracted by the sliding of the second rod body 22 on the first rod body 21 and can be bolted together. The third locking member 211, which is rotatably mounted on the first rod 21, allows for flexible adjustment of the position of the second rod 22 at different heights during the locking process. At the same time, the platform 3 can be detachably connected by a ball seat 31 located at the bottom and fitted into a matching ball groove at the top of the second rod 22. Combined with the rotation of the ball seat 31 within the ball groove, the platform 3 can be flexibly adjusted to different angles on the second rod 22, further improving the structural flexibility of the support rod 2 and the adjustable range of the platform 3, thus enhancing the overall flexibility and practicality of this type of bracket structure.
[0022] The storage tube 4 has a sliding abutment 42 inside, and a protruding rod 421 that slides on a groove 41 opened on the side wall of the storage tube 4 is rotatably provided on the abutment 42. Specifically, from Figure 4 As can be seen, the protruding rod 421, which is detachably connected to the abutment 42 via a threaded structure, enables the abutment 42 to be detached from the storage tube 4. When micro-engraving tools such as carving knives are placed in the storage tube 4, their bottoms can be positioned above the abutment 42. When taking them out, the protruding rod 421 can be pushed upward to move it upward along the sliding groove 41 on the side of the storage tube 4, thereby causing the abutment 42 and its corresponding micro-engraving tool to move upward inside the storage tube 4, allowing the micro-engraving tool to be exposed. This further improves the functionality of the storage tube 4 and the ease and efficiency of taking out and using the corresponding micro-engraving tools inside.
[0023] The outer cover 100 is provided with rubber pads 9 on its top inner wall, the base 42, and the top of the stage 3. The rubber pads 9 can be selectively added according to usage requirements. The addition of rubber pads 9 on the top inner wall of the outer cover 100 and the base 42 can further improve the protection effect on the micro carving tools in the storage tube 4. Combined with the rubber pads 9 on the stage 3, it can also further improve the protection effect on the magnifying glass 6, thus meeting different usage requirements.
[0024] The above description in this specification is merely illustrative of the present invention. Those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to replace them, as long as they do not depart from the content of this specification or exceed the scope defined in the claims, all of which shall fall within the protection scope of this invention.
