Abstract
Modular frames for instructional use that provide secure mounts for geometric solids are presented. Some contemplated modular frames can be assembled into three dimensional modular devices and are particularly suitable for instructional purposes. Modular devices comprising two or more frames could be coupled via a clip in two or more different configurations. Containers including conductive material and configured to provide a Faraday cage around their contents are also provided.
Claims20
A modular frame for scientific instructional use, comprising:
- a first sub-frame component comprising a first vertex saddle, a first frame arm, a second frame arm, and first and second couplers, wherein the first frame arm and the second frame arm extend away from the first vertex saddle to thereby partially define a face;
- and
- a second sub-frame component comprising third and fourth couplers, and wherein the first and second couplers are configured to releasably mate with the third and fourth couplers, respectively.
A modular device for scientific instructional use, comprising:
- a first frame, comprising:
- a first top portion and a first bottom portion;
- wherein the top portion comprises a first clip receiving portion, a first coupler, a first face that is partially defined by a first frame arm and a second frame arm, and a first vertex saddle that is adjacent to the first face;
- wherein the bottom portion comprises a second clip receiving portion and a second coupler;
- and
- wherein the first and second couplers are configured to removably mate with one another;
- a second frame, comprising:
- a second top portion and a second bottom portion;
- wherein the second top portion comprises a third clip receiving portion, a third coupler, a second face that is partially defined by a third frame arm and a fourth frame arm, and a second vertex saddle that is adjacent to the second face;
- wherein the second bottom portion comprises a fourth clip receiving portion and a fourth coupler;
- and
- wherein the third and fourth couplers are configured to removably mate with one another;
- and
- a first clip having a first portion and a second portion, and sized and dimensioned to removably couple the first frame with the second frame.
