Embodiment
As shown in Fig. 1 ~ Fig. 3, the present invention includes mechanical part and electronic section, wherein, mechanical part comprises roller 1, rolling wheel support 2, bearing 3 and bearing bridge 4; Electronic section comprises circuit board 9, infrared transmitter 7 and infrared remote receiver 8.
Roller 1 is arranged on rolling wheel support 2 by roller shaft, and roller 1 joins by roller shaft and bearing 3, and bearing 3 is arranged on bearing bridge 4.In 0 °, 90 °, 180 °, 270 ° directions of roller 1, have a through hole 6, and the aperture of four through holes 6 is identical, six or eight through holes etc. can be set in other embodiment.Roller 1 is follower, in the 3D printer course of work, rotates with the proper motion of material silk 5, and when roller 1 normal rotation, its rotating speed constant magnitude is constant, abnormal if material silk 5 occurs, will directly affect the rotating speed size of roller 1.
Infrared transmitter 7 and infrared remote receiver 8 lay respectively at the both sides of roller 1, and infrared transmitter 7 is for launching infrared signal, and infrared remote receiver 8 is for receiving the infrared signal of being launched by infrared transmitter 7.In the time that roller 1 rotates, infrared transmitter 7 can be successively through the through hole 6 on roller 1 with the line center of infrared remote receiver 8, in the time that infrared transmitter 7 passes through hole 6 with the line center of infrared remote receiver 8, infrared remote receiver 8 can receive infrared signal,, infrared remote receiver 8 can not receive infrared signal when at the line center of infrared transmitter 7 and infrared remote receiver 8 on roller 1 the non through hole position.In the time that roller 1 is pressed constant speed normal rotation, because the aperture of each through hole 6 is all identical, therefore, infrared remote receiver 8 for example can receive the time of infrared signal, for fixing duration (being 1s) by the arbitrary through hole 6 on roller 1, in the present embodiment, this fixing duration is designated as to the first interval duration; Because through hole 6 is evenly to arrange, therefore, the time that infrared remote receiver 8 can not receive infrared signal by the position between two through holes 6 of the arbitrary neighborhood on roller 1, also for example, for fixing duration (being 2s), is designated as the second interval duration by this fixing duration in the present embodiment.
Circuit board 9 joins with infrared remote receiver 8, its for according to infrared remote receiver 8 along with the rotation of roller 1 can receive the relation between duration and the first interval duration of infrared signal, or according to infrared remote receiver 8 along with the rotation of roller 1 can not receive the relation between duration and the second interval duration of infrared signal, the mainboard of controlling 3D printer normally reads or suspends and read the data in SD card, concrete control procedure is: when infrared remote receiver 8 can receive infrared signal or in the time that infrared remote receiver 8 can not receive infrared signal in the second interval duration in the first interval duration by the through hole on roller 1, the mainboard of controlling 3D printer normally reads the data in SD card, make digital information flow normal transmission, print job normally carries out, when the time that infrared remote receiver 8 can receive infrared signal by the through hole on roller 1 exceedes the first interval duration or in the time that the time that infrared remote receiver 8 can not receive infrared signal exceedes the second interval duration, the mainboard of controlling 3D printer suspends the data that read in SD card, make digital information flow suspend transmission, 3D printer stops printing.
The specific works process of 3D printer is: make 3D printer connect power supply, open the switch of 3D printer, the mainboard in 3D printer reads the data in SD card, and the digital information flow in data is passed to all parts of equipment, and equipment brings into operation.Material-extruding machine brings into operation according to the digital information flow of equipment mainboard transmission, and extrudes consumptive material downwards (i.e. material silk 5 in figure).Roller 1, owing to being follower, while therefore expecting silk 5 downward proper motion, drives roller 1 to rotate.In roller 1 rotation process, the infrared signal of being launched by infrared transmitter 7, is received by infrared remote receiver 8 successively in turn by four through holes on roller 1 afterwards by intervals.If roller 1 is with constant speed normal rotation, infrared remote receiver 8 can receive infrared signal by the through hole on roller 1 or infrared remote receiver 8 can not receive infrared signal in the second interval duration in the first interval duration so, now control mainboard by circuit board 9 and normally read the data in SD card, equipment normally moves, digital information flow normal transmission.If the rotating speed of roller 1 changes extremely to some extent because of material silk 5, the time that exceedes the first interval duration or infrared remote receiver 8 and can not receive infrared signal will be exceeded the second interval duration by the time that infrared remote receiver 8 can receive infrared signal by the through hole on roller 1 so, now circuit board 9 is exported pause instruction to equipment mainboard, opertaing device mainboard stops reading the data in SD card, make digital information flow stop transmission, equipment is temporarily out of service.
