The Transformation of Motion is a wooden mechanical puzzle to build from the Leonardo's Ideas collection, directly inspired by the studies and drawings of the Italian genius Leonardo da Vinci . This model highlights one of his fundamental concepts, the transformation of motion , designed for educational and scientific purposes.
When ideas are nurtured by observation and science, they become tools for understanding the world. With Trasformazione del Moto (Transformation of the Motorcycle), Leonardo da Vinci explores the link between continuous and discontinuous motion, a fascinating mechanical principle that here takes on a concrete and manipulable form. By turning the crank in only one direction, the mechanism reveals a surprising feature: the main wheel alternates its direction of rotation , perfectly illustrating this visionary mechanical study.
The model is composed of 63 precision-cut birch plywood components , meticulously designed to faithfully reproduce Leonardo da Vinci's original designs. Each assembly step invites observation, understanding, and assembly of the pieces, progressively revealing the inner workings of the mechanism. The experience extends beyond mere construction; it also allows for the visualization and comprehension of a fundamental mechanical principle .
Quick to assemble, this model offers a smooth and accessible building experience, while maintaining strong educational value. Once assembled, Trasformazione del Moto becomes a demonstrative and decorative object , ideal for illustrating the laws of motion, enriching a collection, or sparking scientific curiosity.
At the crossroads of construction game , mechanical puzzle and educational tool , The Transformation of Movement is aimed at enthusiasts of engineering, history of science and wooden creations inspired by the genius of the Renaissance.
