Description

3D printing nozzle for rapid cooling

Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of wheel 3D printing, in particular to a 3D printing nozzle for rapid cooling.

Background

The 3D printing technology is that a computer is utilized to carry out three-dimensional digital design, and the 3D printing equipment is used to superpose 'printing materials' layer by layer, so that a digital model in the computer is finally changed into a real object. The 3D printing equipment can be internally provided with printing materials with different characteristics such as metal, ceramic, plastic, resin and the like; the 3D printing process specifically comprises the steps of heating and melting the printing material, extruding the printing material through a printing nozzle, solidifying the printing material, depositing the printing material on a printing workbench panel or a previous layer of solidified material, and finally forming a 3D printing model through layer-by-layer accumulation of the printing material.

In the existing 3D printing process, the temperature of a printing nozzle can be continuously increased along with the printing process, so that the nozzle is seriously aged due to overhigh temperature, even a nozzle part is thermally broken, and meanwhile, the continuous increase of the temperature of the nozzle can cause that a printing material passing through the nozzle is higher than the melting point of the printing material, so that the printing material directly flows out of the nozzle, and the material waste is caused; therefore, a cooling device is often provided around the 3D printing head for cooling the head in the printing process. However, if the cooling temperature of the nozzle is too low (i.e. the nozzle is completely cooled), the "printing material" is completely solidified when passing through the nozzle, so that the "printing material" blocks the nozzle and printing cannot be realized; or the printing material is completely solidified when being sprayed out by the spray head, and can not be well attached to the solidified material of the previous layer when being deposited on the solidified material of the previous layer, so that the 3D printing model has a layering phenomenon. If the cooling temperature of the spray head is too high, the printing material can be well attached to the printing workbench panel or the solidified material of the previous layer when deposited on the printing workbench panel or the solidified material of the previous layer, but the solidification time is relatively prolonged, so that the printing interval time between layers is prolonged, and the printing efficiency is greatly reduced. Therefore, the requirements of the printing material for high temperature and low temperature in the 3D printing process are extremely contradictory; having different temperature control capabilities (i.e. having different cooling capabilities for materials) for a 3D printing nozzle is a technical problem faced by the prior art to avoid nozzle blockage and delamination while improving printing efficiency.

firstly, the second motor of the reset component 77 is controlled to rotate, the reset plate moves downwards, so that all the support rods 79 are driven to move downwards, the reset of the support rods 79 is completed, and then the reset component 77 returns to the initial position; the ejector rod assembly 70 ejects the corresponding support rod 79 upwards according to the support surface of the 3D model to be printed, so that the support rods 79 form support surfaces; then the first motor that the control compressed tightly subassembly 78 rotates, the compression board moves down, and the compression board bottom surface is in contact with rubber fastening pad 76 and the compression board continues to move down and extrudees rubber fastening pad 76, and rubber fastening pad 76 extrudees the bracing piece 79 in its rubber holes owing to the deformation of extrusion force to realize bracing piece 79's fixed, avoid printing in-process bracing piece 79 because print model weight increases and move down.

Then, printing is started, firstly, the central axis of the first inlet 23 and the central axis of the first connecting channel 222 are controlled to be collinear, the central axis of the second inlet 24 and the central axis of the third connecting channel 224 are controlled to be collinear, as shown in fig. 4, a "printing material" is introduced into the feeding channel 51, the heating temperature of the heating cavity 52 is controlled to be the temperature required by the "printing material" (namely the melting point of the "printing material"), a cooling substance (one of cooling liquid or cooling gas) is introduced into the second inlet 24, the "printing material" sequentially passes through the first inlet 23, the first connecting channel 222, the first outlet 26, the injection channel 31 and the nozzle 32, and is cooled by the cooling substance in the cooling cavity 41 in the nozzle 32 for the first time (the cooling substance sequentially passes through the second inlet 24, the third connecting channel 224, the cooling channel 43 and the connecting channel 42 and enters the cooling cavity 41, at this time, the slide vane 44 is in a closed, I.e., a complete circular ring shape is formed, as shown in fig. 3), the first cooling is to cool the temperature of the "printing material" to below the melting point, so as to avoid the "printing material" flowing out and the temperature of the nozzle 32 being too high; the "printing material" after the first cooling is ejected by the ejection head 32 to realize 3D printing, and the cooling material flows out through the overflow flow channel 410. After the printing of one surface is finished, the driving motor 11 is started to rotate and drive the screw 13 to rotate, so that the sliding structure 22 slides in the cavity 210, the central axis of the vertical tube at the upper end of the second connecting channel 223 is collinear with the central axis of the third inlet 25, the central axis of the vertical tube at the lower end of the second connecting channel 223 is collinear with the central axis of the second outlet 27, as shown in fig. 7, at this time, the first inlet 23, the second inlet 24, and the first outlet 26 are closed by the sliding structural body, the material is stopped from being introduced into the first inlet 23 and the second inlet 24, the cooling gas is introduced into the third inlet 25, the fan-shaped sliding pieces 44 are opened, the overflow channel 410 is closed, the cooling gas is ejected from the nozzle of the cooling cavity 41 through the third inlet 25, the second connecting channel 223, the cooling channel 43, the connecting channel 42, and the cooling cavity 41 in sequence, and acts on the nozzle 32 to eject the "printing material", so as to implement the second cooling and solidification of the "printing material".

The present invention also allows for the closing of all of the inlets by moving the sliding structure 22 within the cavity 210 (as shown in fig. 8); meanwhile, the spraying amount of the material can be adjusted (by adjusting the communication area between the first inlet 23, the first outlet 26 and the first connecting channel 222), as shown in fig. 9, meanwhile, since the distance between the first connecting channel 222 and the third connecting channel 224 is constant, the amount of the cooling material is also adjusted while the amount of the printing material is adjusted, so that the printing material is in a linkage state, and the problems that the spraying temperature is too hot or too cold, and the printing material flows out or blocks the nozzle due to the fact that the amount of the printing material is changed and the cooling material is not changed are solved.
