Mini Strandbeest Metal Mechanical Gear-Driven Walking Strandbeest Model with Stand Base for Experimental Science Demonstration
Features:
.Unique Appearance:
Similar to Strandbeest, a creature-like structure created by Dutch artist Theo Jansen, we have designed the appearance based on the operating principle of its skeleton. Powered by batteries, this model walks with only four legs, which are composed of multiple linkage mechanisms.
.Walking Function:
Connected to power, the model with high maneuverability and a simple structure can walk steadily with the push of a button on a flat table. But it is sensitive to terrain factors and may face difficulties walking on surfaces that are too high or too soft.
.Premium Materials:
The high-quality skeleton is finely crafted from stainless steel and aluminum alloy, providing a strong mechanical feel. The surface undergoes sandblasting oxidation and polishing and the base is supported by Myanmar padauk wood, adding a sense of solidity.
.Principles:
The Strandbeest's walking structure, particularly the bionic legs, is the most complex part of the creature. It contains the basic triangular truss structure and incorporates the golden ratio of geometry with 13 values (a=38, b=41.5, c=39.3, d=40.1, e=55.8, f=39.4, g=36.7, h=65.7, i=49, j=50, k=61.9, l=7.8, and m=15). The model's footsteps can make repeated fan-shaped movements, allowing it to move with light and graceful steps.
.Extraordinary Significance:
Perfect as a memorable gift for mechanical enthusiasts, collectors, and anyone interested in mechanical principles. It is not only an ornament but also a valuable educational set.
