Summer Session 2023 Projects 1
? ? ? ?Up 主發(fā)這份紙質(zhì)老鼠籠的說明書只是為了分享一下在 JHU EI 夏校里得到的第一個任務(wù)——只用硬紙(σ>= 110g/sq m)、 橡皮筋和固體膠制作一個觸發(fā)機(jī)關(guān)后,能夠在搖晃、倒置情形下而不致使其中乒乓球(“老鼠”)掉出來的“捕鼠(球)籠”。
? ? ? ?此裝置及其說明書的制作耗時7小時。機(jī)關(guān)敏感,結(jié)構(gòu)簡單,多出使用榫卯結(jié)構(gòu)代替膠水提升結(jié)構(gòu)強(qiáng)度(但是部分結(jié)構(gòu)借鑒已有老鼠籠的設(shè)計(jì))。并且,由于任務(wù)ddl在一天之內(nèi),所以,這個裝置又有另一特性——很費(fèi)Up。
