Exhibit Summary
Mortise and tenon structure is a Interactive interactive exhibit in the Smart Technology category, designed for science centers, children’s museums, discovery centers, STEM learning centers and family entertainment centers. Built as a hands-on, mechanical & electromechanical display, it turns an abstract scientific concept into direct, interactive visitor exploration, and is engineered for durable, low-maintenance, high-traffic gallery use.
Scientific Principle
Due to the different shapes of connecting components, simple small wooden blocks can be derived into ever-changing combinations. The displays are hands-on via mortise and tenon building blocks, which enhances the audience's spatial imagination and construction ability.
Operation
The displays consist of operating tables, mortise and tenon building blocks, etc. The table top is divided into three hands-on areas, namely the mortise and tenon educational building block hands-on area, the mortise and tenon building construction area and the mortise and tenon bridge construction area. Each area is independent of each other to avoid confusion. Each hands-on area is equipped with 3 sets of corresponding mortise and tenon building blocks. The mortise and tenon structure combines the wisdom of traditional Chinese mechanics, mathematics, aesthetics and philosophy, and is the soul of classical Chinese wood craftsmanship. A large number of mortise and tenon building blocks are provided on the table. The audience can freely choose and build various ancient architectural models or wooden arch bridge models according to the drawings, discover about the connection method of the components of the mortise and tenon structure, and feel the wisdom of the ancients. The displays are divided into areas using the countertop, and three different mortise and tenon modules are set up to make the displays more accessible to a wider audience. At the same time, three hands-on stations are set up on the countertop via regional division, so that the building block modules will not be chaotic and easy to manage.
