In this embodiment, the ornament 1 includes at least one biological specimen, where the biological specimen is from an insect, a plant and a shellfish, further the insect include a spider, a butterfly, a beetle, a mantis and other interesting insects, the plant includes a leaf, a seed, a petal and other small plants, and the shellfish includes a sea snail, a scallop, a conch and other shellfishes with beautiful modeling. The ornament made by these biological specimens is beautiful in shape, so as to more attract the user's exploratory curiosity and purchasing desire.
In this embodiment, the inclusion 2 is made of a resin material, and further the inclusion 2 is a light-yellow transparent inclusion. Through the above structure, the inclusion made of the resin material is light-yellow and transparent, so as to simulate the form, color and transparency of a natural amber, and the vivid and bright ambroid is made; and the user can clearly observe the ornament wrapped in the inclusion through the transparent inclusion, thereby increasing the beauty and attraction.
In this embodiment, the inclusion 2 is a rigid inclusion. Through the above structure, the inclusion has a higher hardness, so that the inclusion is more wearable, so as to resist the daily wearing and scratch, reduce the surface damage and wearing and maintain the integrity and beauty.
In this embodiment, the smooth outer surface is formed by grinding and polishing the outer surface of the inclusion. Through the above structure, the surface of the inclusion is smooth and glossy by grinding and polishing the inclusion, and when the user digs the inclusion from the carrier, the dust contaminated on the surface may be easily cleaned, so as to obtain the clean inclusion with the smooth surface.
In this embodiment, the carrier 3 includes a filling powder, a foamed thermal expansion microsphere, sand, silver nitrate, cellulose cyclodextrin, a preservative, a color paste and water, which are mutually mixed and dried to form the carrier 3. Through the above structure, after the carrier materials are mixed, the carrier has a certain hardness and plasticity, meanwhile the carrier is more fragile than the real soil, which makes the user easily dig the inclusion hidden in the carrier and is helpful for increasing the playing joy and sense of achievement.
In this embodiment, the carrier 3 is a rectangular block carrier, or a trapezoidal block carrier, or a spherical block carrier, or an elliptic block carrier or a pyramidal block carrier. Through the above structure, the carrier has a diversified modeling, including a rectangular block, a trapezoidal block, a spherical block, an elliptic block, a pyramidal block, an irregular body and the like, and the diversified modeling can provide multiple choices to the user in order to meet multiple demands of various users.
In this embodiment, raised or depressed decorative patterns 4 are provided on an outer surface of the carrier 3. Through the above structure, the raised or depressed decorative patterns are designed on the surface of the carrier, so as to increase the beauty and the artistic effect of the archaeological and treasure-digging toy and attract the user's purchasing.
Referring to
S10: providing an ornament 1;
This step S10 includes:
Through the above steps, at least one creature of the insect, plant and shellfish is taken, cleaned with absolute ethyl alcohol, subjected to post finishing, and soaked in the Carr's liquid, and the ornament is obtained after standing. The Carr's liquid is suitable for color retention of arthropod, mollush and plants, and shells of most insects are fixed through a regular method, oxidation and stain are easily caused; and however the Carr's liquid has an excellent antioxidant effect, so the biological specimen obtained through the Carr's liquid may keep the most perfect form, so that the user can observe the real animal traces, thereby increasing the authenticity and interest of the treasure-digging toy.
This step S20 includes:
Through the above steps, the epoxy resin is mixed with the curing agent in a mass ratio of 3:1, attention should be paid to stirring immediately after mixing until there is no visible floccule; a volume ratio of the epoxy resin to the curing agent is 2.5:1, since a temperature will slightly affect the volume of the two, the mass ratio is more accurate, and usually the volume ratio is not used; and if the ratio is improper, the phenomenon that the epoxy resin mixing paste cannot be cured may occur. The wrapping past obtained after mixing is covered on the surface of the ornament, the inclusion for wrapping the ornament therein is formed after curing, the inclusion is transparent, and the user can observe the ornament wrapped therein with naked eyes. The cured inclusion is ground through the sand paper, a great amount of powder will produce during the grinding process, and a water mill method is used for grinding, so as to avoid absorbing a great amount of powder for convenient subsequent cleaning. In order to increase the contact area between the sand paper and the inclusion, and meanwhile to prevent the stand paper from being worn, a wet cloth may be padded between the sand paper and a flat desktop, and when the water on the sand paper becomes turbid, the moisture must be wiped in time and the sand paper and the inclusion are flushed in time. After the grinding is completed through the sand paper, the hand feeling of the inclusion surface is fine and smooth, only the transparency is to be improved, the inclusion is cleaned and dried, and wiped repeatedly through a polishing block until a mirror effect occurs.
This step S30 includes:
Through the above steps, a mixture of the foamed thermal expansion microsphere, the sand, the sterile tap water, the silver nitrate, the cellulose cyclodextrin, the color paste, the phosphorous sulfur gypsum powder, the river sand and the lake sand, and the preservative with a mass ratio of 4.5:1.2 are weighed respectively; the weighed sterile tap water and the foamed thermal expansion microsphere filter cake are poured into a stirrer to be stirred for 30 s, to ensure that the foamed thermal expansion microsphere is uniformly dispersed in the sterile tap water; the preservative and the silver nitrate with a mass ratio of 4.5:1.2 are added into the obtained mixture to be sterilized for 20 min and then stirred for 30 s again, and the obtained mixture is transferred to a blender mixer, the mixture of the phosphorous sulfur gypsum powder, the river and the lake sand, the cellulose cyclodextrin and the color paste are successively added, and transferred to a drying room for drying after being uniformly mixed and forming the paste, and finally the carrier inlaid with the inclusion with the smooth outer surface is obtained. The manufacturing material is low in cost and the process is simple, so the process complies with the safety standards. When the user adopts the digging tool to dig the ornament, an effect of mixing the false with the genuine may be achieved.
Through the above embodiment steps, the technological process of the archaeological and treasure-digging toy is effectively realized, and the ornament is inlaid inside the carrier after the inclusion wraps the ornament inside by providing the ornament, the inclusion and the carrier. The user can use a digging tool, such as a hammer and a knife, to lightly knock and scrape the carrier until the dust on the inclusion is wiped through a brush when the inclusion is exposed from the carrier, and then the transparent and smooth inclusion wrapped with the ornament can be seen; and the cleaned inclusion is clean and transparent and has a very high ornamental value.
