[0002] The full-angle 3D scanning platform for animal specimens mainly adopts high-precision 3D scanning technology, combined with multi-sensor fusion and algorithm processing, to achieve digital replication of animal skeletal, muscle structure and texture, and has wide application value in fields such as biomedicine and cultural heritage protection.

[0003] A Chinese patent, CN223092287U, discloses a full-angle 3D scanning platform for animal specimens, comprising a base, a horizontal rotation structure, a vertical rotation structure, and a camera. The base has a scanning position for fixing the sample. The horizontal rotation structure includes a horizontal adapter and a horizontal drive mechanism; the horizontal adapter is rotatably mounted on the base, and the horizontal drive mechanism is fixedly mounted on the horizontal adapter. The vertical rotation structure includes a vertical adapter and a vertical drive mechanism; the vertical adapter is rotatably mounted on the horizontal adapter, and the vertical drive mechanism is fixedly mounted on the horizontal adapter. The camera is mounted on the vertical adapter. The horizontal and vertical rotation structures work together, and driven by the horizontal and / or vertical drive mechanisms, the camera can rotate simultaneously in the horizontal and / or vertical planes, always facing the scanning position. This allows for image acquisition and modeling of the sample using a single camera, significantly reducing costs.

[0004] The aforementioned platform can complete image acquisition with a single camera. However, since the platform base does not take into account the scanning of the bottom of the animal specimen, and the animal specimen may deform when it rotates during scanning, a full-angle 3D scanning platform for animal specimens is required. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a full-angle three-dimensional scanning platform for animal specimens, in order to solve the problems of existing platforms not considering scanning the bottom of animal specimens and the deformation caused by rotating animal specimens.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a full-angle three-dimensional scanning platform for animal specimens, comprising three soft caps, each soft cap having a rotating mechanism; the rotating mechanism includes a first slide rod, a second slide rod, a third slide rod, and an arc rail, with a clamping screw assembly fixedly installed through the first slide rod, the second slide rod, and the third slide rod, and a fastening screw assembly fixedly installed through the first slide rod and the arc rail, and a positioning screw assembly threaded onto one end of the second slide rod and the third slide rod.

A pressure screw group is threaded in the middle of the slide seat, and a sliding groove is opened on the first slide rod, the second slide rod, and the third slide rod.

[0011] Preferably, the three slide blocks are respectively slidably mounted on the first slide rod, the second slide rod, and the third slide rod by clamping with three slide grooves, and the three pressure screw groups are respectively adapted to the first slide rod, the second slide rod, and the third slide rod.

[0012] Preferably, reverse threaded posts are fixedly installed on the slide and the support rod, and both threaded posts are threadedly connected to the adjusting nut.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1) This full-angle three-dimensional scanning platform for animal specimens adjusts the angles of the two radial slide rails, No. 2 and No. 3, according to the size of the animal specimen, and uses a set of positioning screws to fix No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3 slide rails.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] Combination Figures 1-3 A full-angle three-dimensional scanning platform for animal specimens includes three soft caps 1, each with a rotating mechanism 2. The rotating mechanism 2 includes a first slide rod 201, a second slide rod 202, a third slide rod 203, and an arc rail 204. A clamping screw assembly 205 is fixedly installed through the first slide rod 201, the second slide rod 202, and the third slide rod 203, and a fastening screw assembly 206 is fixedly installed through the first slide rod 201 and the arc rail 204. A positioning screw assembly 207 is threaded onto one end of the second slide rod 202 and the third slide rod 203.

[0025] The curved rail 204 consists of two half-rings, with slide rods 202 and 203 sandwiched between them, allowing them to slide around an axis on the curved rail 204. Three sets of fastening screws 206 are equidistantly installed on the curved rail 204. Slide rod 201 is aligned with the center of the curved rail 204 to ensure the stability of the platform bottom. A set of positioning screws 207 is fitted to the curved rail 204 to position one end of slide rods 202 and 203 onto the curved rail 204. The connection points of slide bar 201, slide bar 202, and slide bar 203 are all equipped with frosted surfaces. By controlling the clamping screw assembly 205, slide bar 201, slide bar 202, and slide bar 203 can be fixed. During use, the staff adjusts the angle of the two radial slide rails of slide bar 202 and slide bar 203 according to the size of the animal specimen and fixes them with the positioning screw assembly 207. This changes the relative angle between the three soft caps 1 and the clamping screw assembly 205, allowing the platform to adapt to animal specimens of different sizes.

[0026] Example 2

[0027] See Figure 4 and Figure 5 Support mechanisms 3 are provided on slide rod 1 201, slide rod 202 and slide rod 3 203. Support mechanism 3 includes three slide seats 301 and three support rods 302. The three support rods 302 are movably installed on the lower side of soft cap 1. Adjusting nuts 303 are threaded between the three support rods 302 and the three slide seats 301. A pressure screw group 304 is threaded in the middle of the slide seat 301. Slide grooves 305 are provided on slide rod 1 201, slide rod 202 and slide rod 203.

[0028] Three slide blocks 301 are respectively clamped and slidably mounted on slide rod 201, slide rod 202 and slide rod 203 via three slide grooves 305. Three pressure screw groups 304 are respectively adapted to slide rod 201, slide rod 202 and slide rod 203. Reverse threaded posts are fixedly installed on slide blocks 301 and support rods 302, and both threaded posts are threadedly connected to adjusting nuts 303. In use, the positions of the three slide blocks 301 on slide rods 201, slide rod 202 and slide rod 203 are adjusted to change the relative positions of the three soft caps 1 on the horizontal plane. The adjusting nuts 303 are controlled to change the total length of the three slide blocks 301 and the three support rods 302 to achieve the relative height of the three soft caps 1, so that the three soft caps 1 can support the animal specimen and ensure that the bottom of the animal specimen can be completely scanned by the scanner.

[0029] In actual operation, the staff adjusts the angle of the two radial slide rails, No. 2 slide 202 and No. 3 slide 203, according to the size of the animal specimen, and fixes No. 1 slide 201, No. 2 slide 202 and No. 3 slide 203 with positioning screw group 207. The bottom of the three soft caps 1 are respectively changed relative to the clamping screw group 205, so that the platform can adapt to animal specimens of different sizes.

[0030] Adjusting the positions of the three slide blocks 301 on slide rod 201, slide rod 202 and slide rod 203 respectively changes the relative positions of the three soft caps 1 on the horizontal plane. Controlling the adjusting nut 303 changes the total length of the three slide blocks 301 and the three support rods 302, thereby achieving the relative height of the three soft caps 1. This allows the three soft caps 1 to support the animal specimen, ensuring that the bottom of the animal specimen can be fully scanned by the scanner.

[0031] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
