By the way, when attempting to support a plurality of airplane models on the supporting base, the main wings, fuselage, or vertical tail of each airplane model interfere with each other, and it is attempted to avoid it. Then, a very large flight space for the airplane model is required on the upper surface of the support.
Further, when each airplane model is moved in a horizontal plane, there is a problem that the tendency is further increased.

In an experiment for solving the above-mentioned inconvenience, it was also tried to change the height of each of the model airplanes to be mounted and to support the model airplanes. It was difficult to rationally arrange the main body because the main wing interfered with the support pillar supporting the other main body.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention solves the above-mentioned problems by arranging a plurality of columns having different lengths on a supporting stand, each column being made of an elastic material, and setting its length separately. At the same time, this was solved by attaching an airplane model to the top of the pillar. Specifically, three columns having different lengths are provided on a support made of a metal disc, which is located at the apex of a substantially equilateral triangle arranged on a circle coaxial with the axis of the disc. Along with, the main part of the pillar is composed of a thin metal wire, and the length is long, medium, and short, and the top end of the pillar is engaged with a mounting hole provided on the lower surface of the airplane model.
Alternatively, each of the columns is made of stainless steel thin wire,
There are three types of length, long, medium and short, and the aircraft model is attached to the top end of the strut in substantially the same direction, and the aircraft model at the front end is supported by the shortest strut.

[0006]

[Operation] Plural airplane models have different lengths,
Supported at different heights, each airplane model is given a certain height difference between them. In addition, the distance between the adjacent columns is approximately equal to the length of the main wing of the airplane model,
Even if two adjacent aircraft line up side by side, mutual interference,
That is, it is possible to avoid contact between the tips of the main wings and interference between the tips of the main wings and the columns for the other body.

Also, because of the height difference and the distance between the columns,
Even if the struts themselves oscillate due to their elasticity, a minimum distance is maintained between the model aircraft to avoid collisions. Furthermore, the airplane model sways back and forth due to the bending of the columns, making the viewer feel a flight, but at that time,
Since the length of the prop of each airplane is different, the swaying period is different.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below with reference to the illustrated embodiments. In the figure, 10 is a table lamp stand of a model airplane A according to the present invention. The table stand 10 has three thin metal wires 1 of different lengths on a support 11 made of an iron disc.
Metallic airplane model A through the pillars 12 including 6 parts
Is a tiltable support.

The model airplane A attached to each of the metal wires 16 is molded by aluminum alloy die casting imitating a jumbo jet machine.
The metal wire 16 is inserted into a small hole (not shown) formed in the lower surface.
The upper end of is fixedly locked by inserting or screwing it in, or is loosely locked to allow a slight swing. Thus, when an external force is applied to the tabletop stand 10 of the model airplane in some form, the model airplane A tilts back and forth on the tabletop, giving a viewer a flying feeling as if he / she saw the airplane in flight.

As shown in FIG. 5, the support base 11 is made of an iron disc, and three cylindrical protrusions 11a are provided on the upper surface thereof so as to project upward, and the protrusions 11a respectively support the protrusions. Holes 13 and 13 are provided. The column 12 is tiltably supported inside the support hole 13.

The pillar 12 is a metal wire consisting of a root member 14 supported in the support hole 13 and a thin metal wire 16 made of stainless steel or a piano wire supported by the root member 14 and having a diameter of about 1 mm. 16 and 16. The root member 14 is formed by upsetting one end of the shaft rod 14a to form a hemispherical root 14b. Root 1
4b is pressed from the back by a coil spring 15, pressed against the inner surface of the support hole 13, and is lightly stopped and fixed by the friction of the contact surface. The root member 14
The metal wire 16 and the metal wire 16 are fixed by caulking or brazing after inserting the metal wire 16 into the shaft hole opened in the end surface of the shaft rod portion 14a.

Therefore, the column 12 is supported by the support 11 with a hardness that allows the tilt to be adjusted by hand, and the space between adjacent airplane models A can be adjusted. As a method of connecting the metal wire 16 and the airplane model A, a fixed mode and a mode in which some tilting is allowed are used. As an example of the former, there is a pre-drilled hole in the airplane model A, and the upper end of the metal wire 16 is press-fitted, screwed in, or adhered thereto. As an example of the latter, the metal wire 16 is In some cases, a slight hole may be allowed to be loosely engaged with a pilot hole formed on the lower surface of the airplane model A through a slight gap. The angle formed by the metal wire 16 and the airplane model A is substantially a right angle, and the airplane model A becomes horizontal when the metal wire 16 is oriented in the vertical direction.

Three metal wires 1 supported in this way
The length of 6 is set so that the height of the lowest body is 20 cm, and there are three types of long, medium and short, and
There is a difference of about 4 cm between them, and the airplane model A is attached to the upper end thereof. That is, there is a height difference of 4 cm between each airplane model A.

Next, the planar positional relationship when each airplane model A is supported by the columns 12 will be described. First,
The columns 12 are arranged equidistantly on a pitch circle drawn around the axis of the support 11, and their relations form an equilateral triangle. Each aircraft model A is supported with the nose facing the same direction. In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the regular triangles are aligned in the radial direction from any vertex.

The length of one side of the equilateral triangles is 2 in parallel.
The metal wire 16 for the aircraft exists between the main wing and the tail of the preceding aircraft, and at the same time, the length of one side of the equilateral triangle is approximately equal to the length of one side of the main wing of the airplane model A, and It is a little wider than the full width. Thus, when the airplane model A supported on the support 11 is viewed from the side, one aircraft at the lowest position is ahead, and the other two aircraft are lined up at different altitudes. Does not come into direct contact with each other, and it is avoided that the wing tips of the two aircraft models A in the rear row touch the metal wire 16 for the other airframe.

Since this embodiment is constructed as described above, the support column 11 is inserted into the support column 12, and the root member 14 is inserted.
Is pressed and fixed from the back side with a bolt 17 via a coil spring 15, and the airplane model A is attached to the upper end of the metal wire 16 to complete the process. The distance between adjacent airplane models A is adjusted by tilting the shaft rod portion 14a of the root member 14 with a finger. In addition, when it is placed on a table, when external force is applied in some way, that is, when the table vibrates, the wind of people or ventilation, or people touch it, the natural frequency of the vibration system including each airplane model A Although it vibrates in a substantially horizontal plane, at that time, due to the action of the wings of the airplane model A or the difference in the air resistance in the front-rear direction and the left-right direction, even if it is vibrated to the side, It changes to rocking in the front-back direction.

Thus, by pushing and moving the shaft rod portion 14a of the support column with a finger, the metal wire 16 in the free state is obtained.
The initial position of can be changed, and the state is maintained by the frictional force applied from the coil spring 15. When the airplane model A or the metal wire 16 is moved with a finger from this state or vibration is applied by the rotation of the rotary table R on which the support stand 11 is placed, the weight of the airplane model A and the metal wire 16 of the support column supporting the airplane model A are elastic. Thus, the airplane model A moves forward or backward above the support 11. The cycle of the vibration is determined by the natural frequency including the airplane model A attached to the upper end.

[0018]

As described above, according to the present invention, a plurality of stanchions of different lengths erected on the support stand are made of elastic material, and
The model is attached to the top with different lengths. Therefore, even if a plurality of airplane models are arranged on the support base so as to be supported, the airplane models can be supported with a minimum distance therebetween without causing mutual interference between the airplane models. That is, a large number of airplanes can be supported on a relatively narrow support.

Furthermore, since each airplane model A is supported by columns having different lengths, and each swing or vibration system has a different natural frequency, when each of them is vibrated, each airplane model A swings at a different cycle. Move and create a speed difference between them. Therefore, there is an effect that a person who sees the airplane model A feels strongly the flight feeling of each airplane model.
