Better embodiment of the present invention

Fig. 1,2A and 2B illustrate the first embodiment of the present invention.In the present embodiment, three blocks of

plates

1,2 and 3 that are essentially the plane are provided.One side of

plate

1,2,3 has the display surface that is used for display image.

Fig. 1 and 2 A illustrates the relative size of these three blocks of plates.Especially, with reference to figure 2A, two limit 1A of quadrangular plate 1 and the length of 1B are corresponding to the length of the one side that will lean on adjacent panels thereon or a side.In the case, the length of the limit 1A of plate 1 is identical with the length of the limit 2B of plate 2.Similarly, the limit 3A's of the size of limit 1B and plate 3 is measure-alike, and the length of limit 2A is identical with the length of the limit 3B of plate 3.Though contiguous mutually at these plates shown in Fig. 2 A, not necessarily they are linked together, but they are linked together when being preferably in their installation in position and preparing to show along

limit

1A, 2B, 1B, 3A, 2A and 3B.Moreover the limit of adjoining not necessarily has identical length, but equal length is preferable.

The skeleton view of three blocks of plates when assembling shown in Fig. 2 B.Plate 1 is connected to

plate

2 and 3 along limit 1A and 1B respectively.Under this particular case, plate 1 meets at right angles basically along whole length and the plate 2 of the limit 1A of plate 1.Similarly, plate 1 meets at right angles basically along whole length and the plate 3 of plate 1B basically, and plate 2 meets at right angles basically along whole length and the plate 3 of limit 2A.The skeleton view that illustrates the sunk part that when these three blocks of plates are in certain angle, forms shown in Fig. 2 B by them.These plates in this specific embodiments have the angle, thereby sunk part is guided pinnacle 5 into, form the deepest point of sunk part then in this preferred embodiment.

Those skilled in the art should be understood that the number of plate can be different, and these plates differ and are decided to be quadrilateral.Moreover plate differs with respect to the angle of adjacent panels and is decided to be 90 °.No matter whether these plates are in 90 ° really, and display surface all will produce required effect.To illustrate that below plate is greater than or less than 90 ° meaning.

The surface of facing the plate of sunk part forms the display surface of display image.

The actual limit number of every block of plate not only is determined at the required form of display surface, and is determined at the shape of object, and the shape that will be presented at this object the image on the display surface.The simplest image that shows is the image that the box of rectangle sides is arranged.Shown plate is particularly useful for an image that shows box, and the true form of quadrangular plate helps display surface is protruded and the effect of not caving in.

From the pinnacle 5, these limits constitute the edge of the sunk part that is formed by these three blocks of plates when according to the layout shown in Fig. 2 B these three blocks of plates being linked together with three blocks of represented plates of suffix C and D outlying.

With reference to figure 2B, provided that pinnacle 5 is protruded and the effect of not caving in by the display surface that inside surface provided of

plate

1,2 and 3.Following described with reference to figure 3A and 3B, the shape of plate has strengthened this effect.

In Fig. 3 A and 3B, the preceding second embodiment of the present invention of assembling is shown.This second embodiment also has three

quadrangular plate

6,7 and 8.Fig. 3 A and 3B illustrate according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and these plates are shaped so that the principle of the display surface that is specially adapted to show the quadrilateral rectangular box thereon to be provided.

Suffix A, B, C and D represent

plate

6,7 corresponding with those limits shown in the

board

1,2 and 3 among Fig. 2 A and the 2B and 8 limit respectively.In addition, in this specific embodiments, the limit 6A and the 6B (perhaps 7A and 7B or 8A and 8B) of plate are in the right angle basically when assembling.

The dihedral of the plate relative with those angles that form the pinnacle becomes the obtuse angle.This means, angled with

opposite side

6A and 6B, 7A and 7B and 8A and 8B respectively with contiguous limit (6C, 6D, 7C, 7D and 8C and 8D), these angles.

In Fig. 3 B, but find out that

limit

6D and 7C are angled with identical length and

opposite side

6B and 7A, though its direction is opposite.Thereby limit 6B and 6D guide the apparent point 11 away from this structure into, and limit 7A and 7C guide equally the apparent point 12 away from this structure into, the distance between point 11 and the pinnacle 5 with put 12 and pinnacle 5 between distance identical.

On the contrary, limit 7D and limit 7B are angled, and the point 9 of certain distance is all guided on these two limits into.Yet the angle between limit 8C and the limit 8A is relatively large, and guides the apparent point 10 than point 9 more close pinnacles 5 into.

Can find out that also limit 6C opposite side 6A becomes enough angles, thereby if prolong limit 6C, then it will locate to join with limit 6A with the identical point (that is, 9) of 7D junction limit, limit 7B.Identical principle is applied to limit 8D, and it and limit 8B are angled, thereby if prolong limit 8D, it will guide a little 12 into, in other words guide the identical point with limit 7C junction limit 7A when being extended into.

Thereby, according to the principles well-known of skeleton view, reversed

outmost limit

6C, 6D, 7C, 7D, 8C and 8D, the effect of the point of guiding a distance into is provided.Though so to reverse all plates be preferable in order to strengthen effect of the present invention, preferably reverses corresponding limit with identical degree, this not necessarily.In fact, can be the selected limit of the perspective principle plate that is applied to choose.

In Fig. 4, by be provided for three-dimensional structure shown in the installation diagram 2B tri-angle-holed 14,14 ' revise the

plate

13,13 that is essentially the plane '.The accurate shape in hole will be determined by the shape of three-dimensional structure itself.Have in the structure of three blocks of plates of four edges at every block of plate shown in Fig. 2 B, the hole is a triangle.Three-dimensional structure is passed the degree in hole will be according to the size in hole.For example, if the shape in hole 16 shown in the dotted line on Fig. 2 B, then three-dimensional structure will be passed plate 13 and angled with plate 13 in a particular manner.If the hole has shape 17, then three-dimensional structure is passed plate 13 and few, and is installed in different angles with respect to plate 13.Also can three-dimensional structure of the present invention be installed independently and need not plane supporting structure, perhaps for example can utilize support column that this three-dimensional structure is installed to the front of conventional flat support plate and the hole that need not suitably to be shaped.

The side view of structure among Fig. 1,2A that partly passes plate 13 shown in Figure 5 and the 2B.In Fig. 6, be illustrated in by hole 14 and be installed to three-dimensional structure in the process on the placard 13.

The effect of display surface is provided on the inside surface at sunk part shown in Fig. 7 A, 7B and the 7C.Here, three figure of the three-dimensional structure that is similar among Fig. 6 to be seen are shown, but these figure obtain from three different angles, resemble the beholder and before three-dimensional structure, move from left to right.

In Fig. 7 A, before the beholder just in time is positioned at installing plate 13.The beholder of Yi Donging just passes through the edge on the left plate 6 left sides from left to right, thereby just sees the inside surface of

plate

6,7 and 8 fully.Pinnacle 5,

plate

6,7 and 8 and

plate

6,7 and 8 on shown image look and protrude, and be not absorbed in sunk part.

In Fig. 7 B, the beholder has moved to respect to installing plate 13 and has kept right slightly, and he comes access panel 13 now from certain angle rather than from the front.Yet,, look that by plate 6, the 7 and 8 formed display surfaces that cave in resembling him moves to left slightly with respect to plate for the beholder.Produced distinct visual effect like this.

In Fig. 7 C, the beholder further moves right with respect to plate 13 and

plate

6,7 and 8.He and installing plate 13 acutangulate now.Yet, concerning the beholder, look to just look like that he further moves to the

plate

6,7 of obvious projection and 8 the left side, thereby concerning him, he seems directly to face plate 6 now, and in fact he is farther from plate 6.

In order to help to protrude the effect of demonstration, can shown image be reversed.

The direction of the apparent angular velocity of display surface is opposite with the direction of beholder's actual angular speed.Look that the reality that shows sunk part moves and resembles the beholder and move just in opposite direction.Yet, clearly, show sunk part according to plate each other angle and move with bigger or less speed.Those skilled in the art should understand, when beholder's line in a certain direction moves, if less than 90 °, the apparent angular velocity of display surface of then retouching image in the direction is greater than beholder's actual angular speed in the plane inner panel angular relationship each other of passing this line and pinnacle.This situation has produced the distinctest visual effect, and certainly, the angular range of watching is more limited.

Similarly, if in the plane inner panel angle each other by moving direction line and pinnacle greater than 90 °, then the apparent angular velocity of display surface is less than beholder's actual angular speed.

Thereby when the beholder moved with respect to the demonstration sunk part, moving also can appear in sunk part, but does not move along desirable direction.If the lip-deep image of twisted planar shown in the image among Fig. 1 and Fig. 8, then effect is strengthened.By this system being installed in, can further strengthen the visual effect that produces by three-dimensional structure such as on the installing plate 13 that is essentially the plane planar support surface such as (itself also can have been retouched image).

Principle of the present invention can be applicable to provide any three-dimensional structure of sunk part, and the inside surface of this sunk part provides display surface.The inside surface of sunk part do not need always to guide into the actual physical pinnacle (for shown in three quadrangular plate, it is a pyramidal pinnacle), but these inside surfaces must be guided the pinnacle significantly into.Yet it is preferable that actual pinnacle is provided, because not only simplified the structure of the three-dimensional structure that is formed by plate like this, and has strengthened the protruding and effect of not caving in of sunk part.

The inlet of sunk part should not be too narrow to the beholder can not see the inside.For this reason, the angular relationship when in place between the plate is for approximately or just less than 90 °, i.e. arbitrarily angled between 70 ° and 90 ° is preferably between 85 ° and 90 °.These plates can be discrete entities, and perhaps they can form by for example crooked or folding single piece of material.The preferred materials of these plates comprises wood, paper, metal and plastics.Best, display surface is applicable to and supports the identical shaped plate of retouching image.Each plate of retouching image is pasted or is installed on the indicator gauge panel so long.The advantage that this layout had is, can remove image and replaces with new image, strengthened dirigibility of the present invention and purposes like this.Another advantage that forms image on the material that a slice is separated is to reduce cost.

Thereby, the invention provides a kind of equipment that very simply is used to form three-dimensional structure, this three-dimensional structure has provided the effect of the three-dimensional body that bidimensional partly makes when having image.The simplicity of this equipment minimizes manufacturing cost, but the image of the distinctness true to nature that can present on the display surface of this equipment obviously is better than bidimensional display board or placard.
