Abstract

The development of the MIRSOGEN tool originated from the inventor's unique artistic symbol, which resembles a pine branch in a heraldic style. This symbol served as the foundation for the creation of an original and distinctive design for workshop asymmetrical templates and / or assemblies, or their components, applicable in both industry and architecture. The materials used in its construction include a Forex board (130 cm x 100 cm x 1 cm), 3 mm steel wire, and screws with lateral holes, secured using standard and wing nuts.

Description

Field of Technology

[0001] The MIRSOGEN invention is a workshop tool designed for drawing and creating asymmetrical assemblies or their components in industry and architecture. Specifically, MIRSOGEN facilitates the process of workshop drawing, planning, and designing both asymmetrical and symmetrical assemblies, offering a practical and innovative solution for industrial and architectural applications.Technical Problem

[0002] This invention addresses the challenge of efficiently and accurately drawing or creating templates and / or asymmetrical assemblies or their components with a modern and innovative design in workshop environments. The need for a practical, time-saving tool arises due to the complexity of achieving desired shapes through multiple trial-and-error attempts within defined dimensions.State of the Art

[0003] Current challenges in the field include: Time-consuming nature of technical drawing, particularly when creating assemblies in workshops, where achieving the required shape often demands numerous adjustments within the given dimensions. Limitations of advanced software solutions, which, while facilitating and accelerating the design process, may constrain creativity and lead to visually repetitive solutions in industrial design and architecture. Despite extensive digital modeling, practical experience shows that adjustments are often required on-site, leading to deviations from factory-produced designs. Inefficiencies in manual drawing, where creating one or more lines typically involves repeated attempts on multiple sheets of paper or boards. The MIRSOGEN tool overcomes this challenge by allowing users to tighten or loosen three flexible steel wires until the desired shape is achieved. These wires are then fixed with screws, providing a reliable guide for drawing the final lines. Essence of the Invention

[0004] The core innovation of MIRSOGEN lies in its ability to simplify the process of drawing asymmetrical (and symmetrical) assemblies in workshop settings to the highest possible degree. The tool enables the rapid creation of inventive and modern shapes with three distinct corners.

[0005] The inspiration for the tool originates from my unique artistic symbol-a curved triangle reminiscent of a pine branch-which I have drawn and painted freehand for decades in my VIEWFINDER series. Reproducing this complex shape quickly and efficiently using traditional technical drawing tools and tailoring rulers proved to be challenging.

[0006] The VIEWFINDER series represents one of the most significant creative phases of my work. Its name is derived from the framing technique used by painters, where a rectangle is formed by extending the thumbs and index fingers approximately 2 cm apart and holding them in front of the face to frame the composition of a future painting. This concept later evolved into the camera viewfinder, characterized by four inward-pointing corners connected by broken lines.

[0007] Through various attempts to replicate my curved triangle, I developed a plan to create a practical tool that would allow me to technically draw my asymmetrical curved triangle for use as a template or assembly. The resulting tool, MIRSOGEN, now provides a simple and efficient way to quickly generate templates in the form of a curved triangle-one where all three edges or sides are bent or curved.Application of the Invention

[0008] After successfully incorporating my unique symbol into the template, I applied it in my paintings from the mentioned series. To further validate the invention, I set the objective of creating a functional work surface-a tabletop for a living room table. The tabletop design must remain within the boundaries of the most commonly used furniture dimensions, specifically a rectangle of 120 cm x 60 cm or a circle with a diameter of 120 cm, while minimizing the loss of usable surface area. The primary advantages of this invention lie in its simplicity and versatility, enabling cost-effective mass production and significantly reducing paper consumption in the manufacturing process.Brief Description of Drawings and Diagrams

[0009] The MIRSOGEN invention is comprehensively described and illustrated through four drawn templates, each representing the most optimal assembly configurations: Figure 1 / 5, Figure 2 / 5, Figure 3 / 5, and Figure 4 / 5, which include schematic diagrams and labeled components, while Figure 5 / 5 presents illustrations of the final templates as an integral part of this patent documentation.Detailed Description of the Invention

[0010] The provided figures depict schematic and illustrated assemblies, each characterized by three corners and three bent or curved edges. These configurations introduce entirely new and uniquely distinctive geometric forms. In developing the MIRSOGEN invention, my primary objective was to ensure the tool's simplicity, making it highly suitable for workshop conditions.

[0011] The work surface has been transformed into a diagram featuring red grid lines representing square centimeters and a black circular boundary. Enclosed within this document are Figure 1 / 5, Figure 2 / 5, Figure 3 / 5, and Figure 4 / 5, containing labeled sketches of the resulting templates, and Figure 5 / 5, showcasing the final illustrations as integral components of the MIRSOGEN invention.Figure 1 / 5 - First Template

[0012] The work surface was divided vertically through the central points O and O1, with diagonal reference lines. Initially, at the corners A, B, and C of the predefined rectangle, laterally drilled screws were installed to allow 3 mm steel wires to pass through, secured using wing nuts. These steel wires were connected at points A, B, and C and freely adjusted until the desired shapes were achieved. The screws were then tightened or loosened manually at one or multiple points, as indicated by the bidirectional arrows labeled Z. The wires were subsequently utilized as a drawing guide for curve generation. In Figure 1 / 5, a bent triangular shape with all three sides curved is clearly shown within the predefined rectangle of 113 cm x 56 cm, which represents the tabletop work surface.Figure 2 / 5 - Second Template

[0013] The vertical axis dividing the work surface and the circular area into left and right halves is marked at points O and O1, with screws placed at these positions. Initially, the longest wire, which connects points A and C from the first template, is fixed at point O1, while the loosened steel wire is allowed to move freely around the circle. The wire extends 10 cm to the left and right, with the ends secured at points R (59 cm to the left) and P (59 cm to the right) along the horizontal radius, as well as 49 cm along the vertical radius beyond the circle. This irregular semicircle, which traditionally requires technical drawing techniques or specialized software, can be quickly and efficiently drawn using the MIRSOGEN tool in workshop conditions. The final shape includes fixed points O1, P, R, and X2, with X representing the center of the diagram and circle.Point X2 and Template Adjustments

[0014] Point X2 is positioned 29 cm away from point X, featuring a more elongated middle angle at X2. This configuration forms a template for a table with three corners and an irregular semicircular shape, measuring 78 cm in width and 118 cm in length.Figure 3 / 5 - Third Template

[0015] If a less acute angle is desired, the wires at points P, R, and X2 should be loosened, allowing the angle at X2 to be adjusted toward the designated point X1, as clearly depicted in Figure 3 / 5. Additionally, to achieve a gentler curve for the table, the screw at point O1 should be removed and repositioned along the marked diameter line to point O2, as indicated by the bidirectional arrow H. The adjustment process involves first loosening the wire at points O1, P, and R, then pulling it to the desired shape, and securing the screws sequentially-first at O2, followed by R, P, and finally at X1.Figure 4 / 5 - Fourth Template

[0016] The fourth template is created by loosening the screw at point C and repositioning it 20 cm to the left and 12 cm toward the user. Once the wire is adjusted to the required shape, it is secured with a nut, as illustrated in Figure 4 / 5. The resulting template dimensions are 113 cm x 41 cm.Figure 5 / 5 - Template Illustrations

[0017] Figure 5 / 5 presents the optimal templates obtained using the MIRSOGEN tool. These templates can be adapted to various applications without altering their fundamental shape or the defined three-corner structure.
