  The present invention relates to a rotating model device capable of visually recognizing continuous movement of a three-dimensional model.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there has been known a device called a zoo robe (rotation peek) that makes a person seem to move by quickly replacing still images. In this apparatus, still images are arranged like a continuous photograph on the inner surface of a cylinder. A slit is formed vertically on the side surface of the cylinder. If you look inside from the slit while rotating this cylinder, the picture appears to move. This is the principle of moving images using the afterimage phenomenon of human eyes.

  In addition, learning materials have been proposed that explain such techniques and principles for children in an easy-to-understand manner (Patent Document 1).

  Since the above technique uses a planar image, it can be viewed as a moving image, but there are places where the user lacks a sense and power close to the real thing.

  The present invention was made in view of such problems, and based on the principle of moving images using the afterimage phenomenon of the human eye, the user can experience a more realistic sensation and force. The object is to provide an apparatus.

  In order to achieve the above-described object, the present invention provides a disk, a turntable for rotating the disk, and the disk on the disk, and at substantially equal intervals in the circumferential direction on the circle centering on the rotation center of the disk. A rotating model device comprising: a plurality of three-dimensional models arranged on the rotating table; a light source for irradiating the three-dimensional model; and a sensor for detecting a predetermined position of the disk. Are arranged so that the shapes of the adjacent three-dimensional models change continuously, and when the sensor detects a predetermined position of the disk, the light source detects the three-dimensional model at a predetermined position with respect to the light source. The rotating model device is characterized in that it is visible so that the three-dimensional model continuously operates at the irradiation position.

  According to the present invention, when the disk is rotated by the turntable, the sensor sequentially detects a predetermined position of the disk along the rotation direction. In response to this, the light source sequentially irradiates a three-dimensional model at a predetermined position with respect to the light source. That is, at the moment when the sensor detects a predetermined position and the light source irradiates, one of the three-dimensional models passes through the irradiation target position.

  Since the three-dimensional model on the disk is arranged at approximately equal intervals in the circumferential direction on the circle, the timing at which the light source irradiates the three-dimensional model is also equal. In this way, the three-dimensional model having a continuously changing shape is irradiated at equal intervals at the irradiation position, and the user can visually recognize that the three-dimensional model operates continuously.

  Therefore, the user can experience a sense and force closer to the real thing.

  The light source may be provided apart from the position of the irradiated solid model.

  By setting it as such a structure, when a user visually recognizes a three-dimensional model, a light source does not become obstructive and can be visually recognized favorably from all directions.

  Moreover, the said turntable may be able to change the rotational speed of the said disk.

  By adopting such a configuration, for example, it is possible to respond to user needs such as slowing down the speed when you want to check the continuous movement of the three-dimensional model in detail, or speeding up when you want to see smooth movement. Can do.

  Furthermore, the disk may be detachable from the turntable.

  With such a configuration, a plurality of disks can be exchanged for one turntable. Therefore, the user can select and enjoy his / her favorite from a variety of three-dimensional models.

  Further, a plurality of the light sources may be arranged.

  When a plurality of light sources are arranged in this way, one three-dimensional model can be irradiated from different directions, and the three-dimensional model can be viewed well from each direction. Alternatively, if a plurality of light sources irradiate different three-dimensional models, a plurality of users can visually recognize the operation of the three-dimensional model from multiple directions.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a rotation model device that allows a user to feel a sense and force closer to the real thing while being based on the principle of a moving image using the afterimage phenomenon of human eyes.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  First, the overall configuration of the rotation model apparatus 100 will be described with reference to FIG. The rotating model device 100 is mainly composed of a disk 1 and a turntable 15.

  In the disk 1, a plurality of models 5 are arranged at substantially equal intervals in a circumferential direction on a circle centered on the rotation center of the disk 1. Moreover, it arrange | positions so that the shape of the adjacent model 5 may change continuously.

  A slit 7 is formed at substantially the same position as the model 5 around the circumference of the disk 1. The slit 7 is for the sensor 11 described later to detect the rotational position of the disk 1. Further, a disk hole 3 is formed at the center of the disk 1.

  The turntable 15 is provided with a light source 9 for irradiating the model 5. A sensor 11 is provided in the vicinity of the disk 1 of the light source 9. The shaft 17 fits the disk hole 3 to mount the disk 1 on the turntable 15. The dial 19 changes the rotation speed of the disk 1 mounted on the turntable 15.

  Subsequently, each part of the rotation model device 100 will be described with reference to FIGS. 2, 3, and 4.

  FIG. 2 is a top view of the disk 1. When the disk 1 is viewed from above, the models 5 are arranged at substantially equal intervals in the circumferential direction on the circle centered on the disk hole 3 of the disk 1 as described above. In addition, slits 7 are respectively formed on the circumferential edges of the positions where the models 5 are arranged.

  FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the turntable 15. A sensor light receiving unit 13 is provided at a position facing the sensor 11 on the upper surface of the turntable 15. The sensor 11 is a laser light emitting unit and is detected by the sensor light receiving unit 13. Specifically, when the disk 1 is mounted on the turntable 15 and rotates, the slit 7 of the disk 1 and the circumferential edge other than the slit 7 are identified. Depending on the detection result, the light source 9 irradiates the model 5 at a predetermined position with respect to the light source 9. That is, it is desirable that the apparatus is used in a dark place. Note that the type of the sensor 11 is not limited to this. The irradiation position where the light source 9 irradiates the model 5 will be described later with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 4 shows a switch 21 and a dial 19 provided on the back surface of the turntable 15. The disk 1 is rotated and stopped by turning the switch 21 on and off. Further, the rotation speed of the disk can be adjusted by turning the dial 19 in the direction of the arrow in the figure.

  In the rotary model device 100 having the above configuration, the disk 1 is rotated by the turntable 15 when the switch 21 is turned ON. When the sensor 11 is located at a position other than the slit 7, the light source 9 is turned off. As the disk 1 rotates, the sensor 11 and the sensor light receiving unit 13 sequentially detect the slits 7 of the disk 1 along the rotation direction. When the slit 7 passes through the position of the sensor 11, the light source 9 is turned on, and the model 5 at a predetermined position with respect to the light source 9 is sequentially irradiated.

  Since the model 5 and the slit 7 are arranged at substantially equal intervals in the circumferential direction on the disk 1, the timing at which the light source 9 irradiates the model 5 is also equal. In this way, as shown in FIG. 5, the model 5 having a continuously changing shape is sequentially irradiated at the irradiation position. Further, the light source 9 is turned off while the model is out of the irradiation position. That is, the light source 9 is repeatedly turned on and off, and the model is instantaneously irradiated only when the model is at a predetermined position. Therefore, the user can visually recognize the model 5 as if it operates continuously. Therefore, the user can experience a sense and force closer to the real thing.

  Further, since the turntable 15 can change the rotation speed of the disk 1, for example, the speed can be decreased when it is desired to confirm the continuous operation of the model 5 in detail, or the speed can be increased when a smooth operation is desired to be visually confirmed. It can respond to user needs.

  Furthermore, since the disk 1 can be attached to and detached from the turntable 15, not only the disk 1 but also a plurality of disks can be exchanged. Therefore, the user can select and enjoy his / her favorite model from many types of models.

  Next, an irradiation position where the light source 9 irradiates the model 5 when the sensor 11 and the sensor light receiving unit 13 detect the slit 7 will be described with reference to FIG. Here, each of the model 5 is A to F, and the slit 7 is a to f.

  FIG. 6A shows a state in which the slit a of the disk 1 passes between the sensor 11 and a sensor light receiving unit 13 (not shown) while rotating in the arrow direction in the drawing. FIG. 6B shows a state in which the circular periphery outside the slit of the disk 1 passes between the sensor 11 and a sensor light receiving unit 13 (not shown).

  In the case of FIG. 6A, the light source 9 described above irradiates the model B, for example. That is, the light source 9 is separated from the position of the model to be irradiated, and the irradiation position is a model one rotation direction behind the detected slit. In FIG. 6B, since the slit is not detected, the light source 9 is turned off.

  As described above, when the disk 1 continues to rotate while repeating the states of FIG. 6A and FIG. 6B, the sensor 11 is equally spaced in the order of slit b, slit c, slit d, slit e, and slit f. To detect. Correspondingly, the light source 9 irradiates the model C, the model D, the model E, the model F, and the model A in order at equal intervals.

  Thus, the light source 9 is provided apart from the position of the model to be irradiated. For this reason, when the user visually recognizes the model at the irradiation position of the light source 9, the light source 9 is not hindered and can be viewed well from all directions.

  Next, another embodiment of the rotation model device 100 will be described with reference to FIGS. In these embodiments, a plurality of light sources are arranged. In the following description, the same configurations as those of the rotation model device 100 are denoted by the same reference numerals as those in the drawings so far, and redundant description is omitted.

  In FIG. 7, a light source 31 and a sensor 33 are provided at a position facing the light source 9. Similarly to the light source 9 irradiating the model B when the sensor 11 detects the slit a, the light source 31 irradiates the model E when the sensor 33 detects the slit d. That is, the light source 31 is also separated from the position of the model to be irradiated, and the irradiation position is a model one rotation direction behind the detected slit.

  In this way, if the two light sources irradiate different models, a plurality of users can visually recognize the operation of the model from multiple directions.

  Moreover, in FIG. 8, the light source 9 and the light source 35 are provided so that the model B may be inserted | pinched. When the sensor 11 detects the slit a and the light source 9 irradiates the model B, the sensor 37 detects the slit c and the light source 35 also irradiates the model B. That is, the light source 35 is also separated from the position of the model to be irradiated, and the irradiation position is a model one rotation direction ahead of the detected slit.

  In this way, when a single model is irradiated from different directions by a plurality of light sources, the model can be viewed well from all directions.

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described referring an accompanying drawing, the technical scope of this invention is not restricted to embodiment mentioned above.

  In the present embodiment, the model is based on the running of animals, but if the movement of the athlete, for example, a golf or baseball swing is used as a model, the movement can be confirmed with a sense close to the real thing, and the user's practice Can be useful.

  It is obvious for those skilled in the art that various changes or modifications can be conceived within the scope of the technical idea described in the claims of the utility model registration. It is understood that it belongs to the technical scope.
