Detailed description of the invention
Referring to Fig. 1, the first better embodiment of printer 100 of the present invention includes moulding cylinder 10 and a workbench 20, in wherein this moulding cylinder 10 is located in this workbench 20.
Specifically, this workbench 20 offers a perforation 22, and this moulding cylinder 10 is arranged in this perforation 22, and the opening of this moulding cylinder 10 is directed at this perforation 22.
Please join and read Fig. 2 in the lump, this moulding cylinder 10 includes that a piston 16, at least is set in the sealing ring 19 outside this piston 16 and for housing the molding casing wall 18 of this piston 16 and this sealing ring 19, and wherein this piston 16 can move up and down along Z axis under the control of a processor 80 in the inwall 181 of this molding casing wall 18.In present embodiment, this molding casing wall 18 is substantially tubular.
This piston 16 includes piston rod 164 and the piston only 166 that a piston cylinder 162, can stretch, and this piston cylinder 162 is positioned at the bottom of this moulding cylinder 10.One end of this piston rod 164 connects this piston cylinder 162, and the other end connects this piston only 166.When this piston cylinder 162 drives this piston rod 164 to extend, this piston only 166 can be mobile along this molding casing wall 18 inwall 181 upwards (Z axis positive direction in Fig. 1), until the upper surface 171 of this piston only 166 and the upper surface flush of this workbench 20.In present embodiment, powder to be formed can be laid on the upper surface 171 of this piston only 166, and is moved relative to the inwall 181 of molding casing wall 18 by this piston only 166, so reaches the purpose that 3D prints.It addition, in present embodiment, this powder to be formed can be made up of metal or nonmetallic materials.
Please continue to refer to Fig. 2, this piston only 166 is in addition to including this upper surface 171, and this piston only 166 also includes a lower surface 173 being oppositely arranged with upper surface 171 and the periphery wall 175 arranged along this upper surface 171 with lower surface 173 circumferential direction.In present embodiment, one end of the piston rod 164 of this piston 16 connects this piston cylinder 162, and the other end connects the lower surface 173 of this piston only 166.
In present embodiment, this periphery wall 175 being provided with at least one inner groovy 177 arranged around this piston 16 periphery wall 175, each of which inner groovy 177 is for housing a sealing ring 19.In present embodiment, the quantity of this sealing ring 19 is not more than the quantity of this inner groovy 177.
Each sealing ring 19 all includes outer ring 191 and an inner ring 193.The wall of this outer ring 191 is provided with the arcwall face for connecting outer ring 191 upper and lower side, the wall of this inner ring 193 is provided with the arcwall face for connecting 183 lower ends on inner ring or plane, as when the outer ring 191 of sealing ring 19 be arcwall face, inner ring 193 for plane time, the cross section of this sealing ring 19 is then D font;When the outer ring 191 of sealing ring 19 be arcwall face, inner ring 193 for arcwall face time, the cross section of this sealing ring 19 be then selenodont or is O font.In present embodiment, this sealing ring 19 is viscous by wear-resisting glue, heatproof glue, Pilus Caprae seu Ovis, at least one material is made in politef.
In present embodiment, when sealing ring 19 is arranged in the inner groovy 177 of correspondence, the inner ring 193 of this sealing ring 19 can contact with corresponding inner groovy 177, and the outer ring 191 of this sealing ring 19 is also inconsistent with the inwall 181 of this molding casing wall 18, and then reaches to prevent the purpose of gas leakage.So also can be when piston only 166 to move relative to inwall 181, the outer ring 191 of sealing ring 19 can be reduced or avoided the leakage of powder to be formed.
Referring to and Fig. 3, in present embodiment, this piston 16 may also include at least one elastic mechanism 40.This inner groovy 177 can be used for housing this elastic mechanism 40 and sealing ring 19, and this elastic mechanism 40 is between corresponding sealing ring 19 and inner groovy 177.
Please also refer to Fig. 4, in present embodiment, this elastic mechanism 40 includes one first elastic ring 407,1 second elastic ring 405 and some is arranged between this first elastic ring 407 second elastic ring 405 and can the elastic 410 of movable telescopic.In present embodiment, each elastic 410 all includes one first fixture 401,1 second fixture 403 and is arranged at the elastic component 409 between this first fixture 401 and the second fixture 403.In present embodiment, this elastic component 409 can be a spring, and this first fixture 401 and the second fixture 403 are respectively provided with a protuberance, and this spring deducts between this first fixture 401 and 403 liang of protuberances of the second fixture.When this elastic mechanism 40 is between corresponding sealing ring 19 and inner groovy 177, first elastic ring 407 of this elastic mechanism 40 is for inconsistent with inner groovy 177, second elastic ring 405 of this elastic mechanism 40 is for inconsistent with the inner ring 193 of sealing ring 19, the outer ring 191 of this sealing ring 19 contacts at the inwall 181 of molding casing wall 18, so prevents the purpose of gas leakage.
Due to when carrying out 3D and printing, piston 16 in moulding cylinder 10 can occur relative motion in inwall 181, so after use after a while, the outer ring 191 of sealing ring 19 may be worn, but owing to this elastic mechanism 40 is arranged between corresponding sealing ring 19 and inner groovy 177, so when abrasion occurs in sealing ring 19, this elastic mechanism 40 can continue to keep inconsistent with inwall 181 for the outer ring 191 of this sealing ring 19 by elastic deformation, so reaches the purpose extending the service life of sealing ring 19.
In present embodiment, this periphery wall 175 is provided with 4 inner groovies 177, wherein inner groovy 1 houses the sealing ring of an O font cross section, inner groovy 2 houses elastic mechanism 40 and a sealing ring for a D font cross section, inner groovy 3 does not house sealing ring, and inner groovy 4 houses elastic mechanism 40 and a sealing ring for a selenodont cross section.In present embodiment, the material of the sealing ring being positioned in different inner groovy is identical or part is identical or different.
Refer to Fig. 5, the printer 102 provided for the present invention the second better embodiment.This printer 102 also includes a laser aid 90.This laser aid 90 is arranged on the top of this workbench 20, and the laser beam that this laser aid 90 sends is accurate with the upper surface 171 of this piston only 166, is used for being sintered action.
The beneficial effect that printer 100 in beneficial effect that printer 102 in this second better embodiment is possessed and the first embodiment is possessed is identical, does not repeats them here.
Those skilled in the art will be appreciated that; above embodiment is intended merely to the present invention is described; and it is not used as limitation of the invention; as long as within the spirit of the present invention, made above example suitably change and change all to fall is asked within the scope of protection in the present invention.
