Double Face Lamp · 1 question

This is a lamp that can be used in case of blackout. The unique thing about this design is that it's two-sided. When the electricity is normal, use it like a regular product.

What is the main principle, idea and inspiration behind your design?

This is a lamp that can be used in case of blackout. The unique thing about this design is that it's two-sided. When the electricity is normal, use it like a regular product. Ordinary electricity will charge the flashlight inside the lamp. When blackout, turn the head so that the charge of the upper light can continue to illuminate. When the user needs to move, they can also remove the upper light and use it as a flashlight.

Linking Stool Kindergarten Stool · 3 questions

I observed that when the kindergarten teacher played games with the children, the children often gathered around the teacher.

What is the main principle, idea and inspiration behind your design?

I observed that when the kindergarten teacher played games with the children, the children often gathered around the teacher. I was inspired by the chain of the bicycle and wanted to design a kindergarten bench that could be Linked or disassembled quickly, so the Linking Stool came into being. At the same time, Linking Stool allows more kids to be more intimate and learn to share based on the combination.

What has been your main focus in designing this work? Especially what did you want to achieve?

1. Most kindergarten benches are used as independent furniture. As there are many children in kindergartens, the benches are placed in a scattered way.

2. The original kindergarten bench structure is relatively simple, which cannot meet the different needs in the process of kindergarten educational activities. Moreover, the single stool can only accommodate one child.

The utility model belongs to the bench technology field, especially for a can connect each other through the chain structure of the bench, including the bench seat body, described a seat on a bench seat body is mainly composed of plate, connecting plate and the support legs, described on to sit on the board there are links to open hole, described the connection plate is located in the on board as described above, down to the bottom of the connecting plate fixed connection Settings are described connecting shaft, described the connection plate and described by plate through a connecting shaft card fixed; Through hole on the bench and stool body open connections, add in the upper part of the bench seat body connection plate, connecting plate beneath the set has a connecting shaft connecting hole diameter is equal, in the class activities, will be connected by connecting shaft and connecting hole plate installed in the middle of the two bench seat body, connect multiple bench seat body together, make more children can play games together around the teacher, facilitates the management of the adult to the infant child, and facilitate the management of quality to foster children 's share close to each other at the same time.
