Openable Tulip
Print Profile(1)
Description
A flower with petals that mimic a tulip's shape, capable of opening and closing. Available in both manual and motorized versions.
The manual version requires no additional hardware; all parts can be directly printed and assembled. In the manual version, actuating a button on the base activates an internal slider and linkage, opening and closing the petals.
The motorized version requires an additional motorized music box movement and three sets of M2 screws and nuts; all other parts are printable. After assembly, switching on the music box movement will activate a cam and linkage mechanism to provide reciprocating petal opening and closing.
A video of the motorized version in action can be seen here:
Motorized music box movements can be found by searching for "motorized music box movement" on major e-commerce platforms.
