When the trough frame 220 is installed, the trough frame 220 is installed on the upper base plate 110 by a bracket, and the trough frame 220 is fixed by a screw or a buckling mode. The upper surface of the protruding portion 113 is higher than the installation bottom surface of the trough frame 220 (i.e. the surface of the trough frame 220 opposite to the upper base plate 110), and the trough frame 220 and the light holes 111 are respectively located at different sides of the protruding portion 113, so that the protruding portion 113 can prop the release film 210 on the trough frame 220, the release film 210 is tensioned by utilizing the height difference, the tensioning degree of adjusting the release film 210 by using tensioning screws is saved, and the quality of a printing model is improved.

At the same time, this arrangement is advantageous in reducing the material consumption of the protruding portion 113, and saving the manufacturing cost of the upper base plate 110.

Therefore, the first limiting part 114 and the second limiting part are matched to play a role in pre-positioning and limiting, so that the assembly efficiency and the assembly precision of the trough frame 220 and the mounting groove 112 can be improved; at the same time, movement of the trough frame 220 relative to the mounting trough 112 in the horizontal direction is reduced, i.e., the likelihood of the trough frame 220 sloshing is reduced; meanwhile, since the first limiting part 114 is located at the bottom of the installation groove 112 and the second limiting part is located at the bottom of the trough frame 220, the trough assembly 200 is connected to the rear of the upper base plate 110, and the first limiting part 114 and the second limiting part are not exposed to the outside, so that the appearance aesthetic property of the stereoscopic forming device is improved.
In the above embodiment, one of the first stopper 114 and the second stopper is a groove structure, and the other is a protrusion structure. Specifically, the first limiting part 114 is of a groove structure, the second limiting part is of a protruding structure, or the first limiting part 114 is of a protruding structure, the second limiting part is of a groove structure, and the protruding structure and the groove structure are convenient to process, easy to realize, good in limiting effect and suitable for popularization and application.
As shown in fig. 1 and 5, in some possible embodiments of the present utility model, the upper base plate 110 is provided with a third limiting portion 115, at least a side wall of the mounting slot 112 is connected to the third limiting portion 115, and a side surface of the trough frame 220 is provided with a fourth limiting portion, where the third limiting portion 115 and the fourth limiting portion cooperate to limit movement of the trough frame 220 relative to the upper base plate 110. Therefore, the third limiting part 115 and the fourth limiting part are matched to play a role in pre-positioning and limiting, so that the assembly efficiency and the assembly precision of the trough frame 220 and the mounting groove 112 can be improved, meanwhile, the trough frame 220 is prevented from moving relative to the mounting groove 112, and the possibility of shaking of the trough frame 220 relative to the upper base plate 110 is reduced.
In the above embodiment, the third limiting portion 115 is a slot, the fourth limiting portion is an insert, and the opening direction of the slot is perpendicular to the opening direction of the mounting groove 112, and since the third limiting portion 115 is connected to the side wall of the mounting groove 112, that is, the slot is connected to the side wall of the mounting groove 112, after the insert on the trough frame 220 is inserted into the slot, the trough frame 220 can be limited to move in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction relative to the upper base plate 110, which plays a role in pre-positioning and limiting, and can improve the assembly efficiency and the assembly precision of the trough frame 220 and the mounting groove 112, and meanwhile, the possibility of shaking the trough frame 220 relative to the upper base plate 110 is reduced.
As shown in fig. 1 to 6, in some possible embodiments provided by the present utility model, the stereolithography apparatus further includes: a support body 100 and a vertical movement mechanism 300, the support body 100 including an upper base plate 110, the vertical movement mechanism 300 being connected to the support body 100; the third limiting portion 115 is connected to a side wall of the mounting groove 112 on a side close to the vertical movement mechanism 300.
In this embodiment, the third limiting portion 115 is connected to the side wall of the installation groove 112 near the side of the vertical movement mechanism 300, so that when the trough assembly 200 is connected to the upper base plate 110, the trough can shield the third limiting portion 115, thereby preventing the third limiting portion 115 from being exposed to the user, and improving the aesthetic appearance of the stereoscopic forming apparatus.
Further, as shown in fig. 7, the stereolithography apparatus further includes a lithography stage 700, and the vertical movement mechanism 300 is connected to the lithography stage 700 to drive the lithography stage 700 to move in a direction approaching or moving away from the upper plate 110.
As shown in fig. 1 and 5, the stereolithography apparatus further includes a screen assembly 400, the screen assembly 400 being positioned in the light transmission hole 111, and the stereolithography apparatus further includes a light source assembly 800 positioned at an inner wall of the support body 100. Therefore, the relative positions of the molding platform 700 and the trough are adjusted through the vertical movement mechanism 300, so that the molding platform 700 is positioned at a proper position of the trough, at this time, the light projected by the light source assembly 800 of the three-dimensional molding device is radiated to the surface of the photo-curing material in the trough through the screen assembly 400, and the photo-curing material can be cured on the molding platform 700, so that the printing of the three-dimensional entity of one printing layer can be realized. Then, the molding platform 700 is moved away from the trough by a distance equal to the thickness of one printing layer, and then another printing layer is solidified, and so on, so as to realize the printing of the three-dimensional model.
As shown in fig. 4, in some possible embodiments of the present utility model, the inner wall of the light hole 111 is provided with a mounting boss 116, and the screen assembly 400 is connected to the upper chassis 110 through the mounting boss 116. Thus, the screen assembly 400 can be reliably mounted on the upper chassis 110 using the mounting boss 116.
It will be appreciated that since the printed pattern of the stereolithography apparatus is cured layer by layer, whether the first layer of the pattern is successfully adhered to the molding platform 700 is important for the subsequent printing process, such as uneven curing of the first layer pattern, incomplete curing of the partial areas, and during the printing process of the pattern, the first layer pattern will fracture as the pattern becomes heavier, resulting in the pattern falling off. For this reason, in order to ensure stable adhesion between the mold and the molding platform 700, a leveling method is generally adopted to adjust the molding platform 700 to be parallel to the release film 210, and then the molding platform is fixed, and printing is performed, for example, a leveling screw is rotated to tightly press a fixing block on the molding platform 700, so as to adjust the adhesion degree between the molding platform 700 and the exposure screen. In this way, an additional leveling process of the molding platform 700 is required before printing, and the leveling process involves a complicated process of loosening the molding platform 700, adjusting the angle of the molding platform 700, and fixing the molding platform 700, resulting in an additional workload.
Further, the stereolithography apparatus further comprises a screen adjustment assembly 400', the screen adjustment assembly 400' comprising a floating platform 410', the floating platform 410' being located at the light transmission hole 111 and being movable relative to the upper base plate 110; the corner of the floating platform 410' is provided with a first mating portion 411', and the first mating portion 411' has an arc surface structure.
In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 7, 12 and 15, the screen assembly 400 of the present utility model may be replaced by a screen adjusting assembly 400', where the screen adjusting assembly 400' includes a floating platform 410', it is understood that the floating platform 410' includes an exposure screen, the floating platform 410 'is located at the light hole 111 below the trough assembly 200 and is movable relative to the upper base plate 110, and the relative position of the floating platform 410' and the upper base plate 110 includes an initial position; an elastic member 600 coupled to the floating platform 410 'and the upper base plate 110, the elastic member 600 being configured to apply a force to the floating platform 410' close to the trough assembly 200 so as to move the floating platform 410 'to an initial position or to adjust an inclination angle or height of the floating platform 410' with respect to the upper base plate 110; wherein, one or more corners of the floating platform 410' are provided with a first matching part 411', and the first matching part 411' has a cambered surface structure; the side wall of the light hole 111 is provided with a second matching portion 118 opposite to the first matching portion 411', and the first matching portion 411' and the second matching portion 118 are arc-shaped surfaces matched with each other in a surface mode, so that the floating platform 410 'and the upper base plate 110 are in butt joint through the first matching portion 411' and the second matching portion 118 and move relative to each other.
Further, the screen adjusting assembly 400' further includes a limiting block 420', the two second matching portions 118 are provided with accommodating grooves 1181, the limiting block 420' is located in the accommodating grooves 1181, and the limiting block 420' is used for limiting the movement of the floating platform 410' along the horizontal direction; the screen adjustment assembly 400 'further includes an upper limit tab 430', the upper limit tab 430 'being coupled to the floating platform 410', the upper limit tab 430 'interacting with the upper base plate 110 to limit the uppermost position of the floating platform 410' to an initial position in cooperation with the elastic member 600; the screen adjustment assembly 400 'further includes a lower limit plate 440', the lower limit plate 440 'being connected to the floating platform 410' and the upper chassis 110, respectively, the lower limit plate 440 'being elastically deformed in a direction perpendicular to the floating platform 410' to apply a force to move the floating platform 410 'to a restoring direction of the lower limit plate 440', the lower limit plate 440 'being rigid in a direction parallel to the floating platform 410' to limit a relative position of the floating platform 410 'and the upper chassis 110 in a direction parallel to the floating platform 410'.
As shown in fig. 7 to 17, in this embodiment, the floating platform 410' of the screen adjusting assembly 400' is located at the light transmission hole 111 below the trough assembly 200, so that the light emitted from the light source assembly 800 is radiated to the photo-curing resin in the trough assembly 200 through the exposure screen of the screen adjusting assembly 400', and the photo-curing resin can be cured on the molding platform 700.
Wherein the floating platform 410' is movable relative to the upper base plate 110, the relative position of the floating platform 410' and the upper base plate 110 includes an initial position, specifically, the floating platform 410' is movable relative to the upper base plate 110 under the action of external force, the inclination angle of the screen adjusting assembly 400' can be changed, and when the external force is removed, the floating platform 410' returns to the initial position under the action of the elastic member 600.
It will be appreciated that during installation of the molding platform 700, the bottom surface of the molding platform 700 will be non-parallel to the upper surface of the screen adjustment assembly 400' due to installation or mechanical errors, and the bottom surface of the molding platform 700 will be inclined, and the phenomenon of one side being high and the other side being low will occur, specifically, the description will be given taking the example that the left edge of the bottom surface of the molding platform 700 is high and the right edge is low. In printing, the trough assembly 200 is connected to the upper base plate 110 and is positioned above the screen adjusting assembly 400', and the release film 210 of the trough assembly 200 is attached to the surface of the screen adjusting assembly 400'.
Before curing starts, the forming platform 700 descends, the right edge of the forming platform 700 firstly acts on the release film 210, the right side of the floating platform 410' is stressed by the right edge of the forming platform 700 due to the fact that the release film 210 is a flexible piece, the right side of the floating platform 410' moves downwards from an initial position, the inclination angle of the floating platform 410' is gradually matched with the bottom surface of the forming platform 700 under the action of the elastic piece 600 along with the continuous downward movement of the forming platform 700, and finally, the left edge of the forming platform 700 acts on the left side of the floating platform 410', and the floating platform 410' is indirectly in surface fit with the forming platform 700. This process corresponds to the movement of the build platform 700 to the zero position and does not involve an additional manual or automatic leveling process, after which the build platform 700 is raised to the level of a model to begin printing. During the lifting of the molding platform 700, the floating platform 410' will move toward the initial position under the action of the elastic member 600, until the left side of the floating platform 410' reaches the height of the initial position, the left edge of the molding platform 700 will be separated from the left side of the floating platform 410', while the right side of the floating platform 410' is still in a state of being pressed by the right edge of the molding platform 700, at this time, a gap will be generated between the floating platform 410' and the bottom surface of the molding platform 700, the resin in the gap will be cured, the thickness of the layer of cured resin will be reduced from left to right, but due to the very small gap when generated, the complete curing of the resin can be satisfied even at the left edge of the molding platform 700 with the maximum gap thickness. During the printing of each subsequent layer of the pattern, a gap is created between the shaped pattern and floating platform 410', and curing of the resin occurs in the gap until the right edge of shaping platform 700 is clear of floating platform 410', at which point floating platform 410' returns fully to its original position. In the process from the beginning of printing to the complete return of the floating platform 410 'to the initial position, the printing of the previous several layers of models is completed, each layer of models is wedge-shaped, which is equivalent to the model which is formed between the inclined forming platform 700 and the floating platform 410' in the initial state at one time, and the models are divided into multiple layers of models to be sequentially cured, so that the thickness of each layer of models can meet the thickest position and can be completely cured, the problem that the thicker side of the model formed at one time cannot be cured due to the fact that the thicker side of the model is provided with the area far away from the light source is avoided, and the additional complex leveling process is not required.
As shown in fig. 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16, the floating platform 410' is rectangular, the four corners of the floating platform 410' are provided with first matching portions 411', the side wall of the light hole 111 is provided with second matching portions 118 opposite to the first matching portions 411', and the first matching portions 411' and the second matching portions 118 are arc-shaped surfaces with surface-type mutual matching, so that the floating platform 410' and the upper base plate 110 are in butt joint through the first matching portions 411' and the second matching portions 118 and mutually move. Because the first matching portion 411' and the second matching portion 118 are the arc surfaces of the surface type matching with each other, if the first matching portion 411' is of an arc surface structure, the second matching portion 118 is of an arc surface structure, and the two arc surface structures are matched with each other, so that the floating platform 410' and the upper base plate 110 can be prevented from being blocked, good leveling effect can be ensured, and leveling smoothness can be improved. Wherein, when the shaping platform 700 presses down the floating platform 410 as a whole, the stress condition of the floating platform 410 is as shown in fig. 13.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 8 to 10, the four first fitting parts 411' include first sub-fitting parts 411a ' and second sub-fitting parts 411b ' which are spaced apart in the length direction of the upper chassis 110, and as shown in fig. 8, when the top ends of the first sub-fitting parts 411a ' and the second sub-fitting parts 411b ' are all flush with the upper chassis 110, the horizontal distance between the first sub-fitting parts 411a ' and the second sub-fitting parts 411b ' is d1; as shown in fig. 9, when the tip of the first sub-fitting portion 411a 'is higher than the upper chassis 110 and the tip of the second sub-fitting portion 411b' is lower than the upper chassis 110, the horizontal distance between the first sub-fitting portion 411a 'and the second sub-fitting portion 411b' is d2; as shown in fig. 10, when the tip of the first sub-fitting portion 411a 'is lower than the upper chassis 110 and the tip of the second sub-fitting portion 411b' is higher than the upper chassis 110, the horizontal distance between the first sub-fitting portion 411a 'and the second sub-fitting portion 411b' is d3; since the opening size of the light hole 111 along the length direction of the upper plate 110 is unchanged, d1=d2=d3, there is no interference to be blocked when the floating platform 410' provided with the circular arc surface floats up and down from left to right, which is advantageous for improving the sensitivity and accuracy of the leveling operation.
Wherein, as shown in fig. 12 and 15, the side walls of the light transmission holes 111 are provided with mounting bosses 116, and the elastic members 600 are positioned between the mounting bosses 116 and the floating platform 410' to apply a force to the floating platform 410' near the trough assembly 200 and to bring the floating platform 410' to an initial position.
As shown in fig. 12 and 15, the screen adjusting assembly 400' further includes a limiting block 420', the second matching portion 118 is provided with a receiving groove 1181, the limiting block 420' is located in the receiving groove 1181, and the limiting block 420' is used for limiting the movement of the floating platform 410' along the horizontal direction; specifically, the stopper 420' can reduce the gap between the floating platform 410' and the light hole 111 to reduce the floating amplitude of the floating platform 410' to ensure a good leveling effect. It is to be understood that the portion of the limiting block 420' opposite to the first mating portion 411' may be configured as a planar structure, or may be configured as an arc surface structure, and the number of the limiting blocks 420' may be two, three, or four. Specifically, the screen adjusting assembly 400 'further includes a first coupling bolt 450', and the stopper 420 'is fixed to the upper chassis 110 by the first coupling bolt 450'.
As shown in fig. 15 and 16, the screen adjusting assembly 400 'further includes an upper limit tab 430', the upper limit tab 430 'being connected to the floating platform 410', the upper limit tab 430 'interacting with the upper base plate 110 to limit the uppermost position of the floating platform 410' to the initial position in cooperation with the elastic member 600. Thus, a high degree of accuracy can be ensured when floating platform 410' is in the initial position. The number of the upper limit pieces 430' is four, and the four upper limit pieces 430' are distributed at four corners of the floating platform 410', so that the height of the four corners of the floating platform 410' is limited, the problem that the initial position of the floating platform 410' is inaccurate due to the fact that any corner of the floating platform 410' protrudes is avoided, and the accuracy of the height of the floating platform 410' in the initial position is further ensured.
It is understood that the upper limit tab 430' may be fixed to the upper base plate 110 by screws, and as shown in fig. 15 and 16, when the screen assembly 400 includes both the upper limit tab 430' and the limit block 420', the upper limit tab 430' may be located above the limit block 420 '. As shown in fig. 12 and 13, when the screen assembly 400 includes only the stopper 420 'without the upper stopper 430', the stopper 420 'may function as a gap, and may function as a height limiter to limit the highest position of the floating platform 410' to the initial position in cooperation with the elastic member 600.
As shown in fig. 12 and 15, the screen adjusting assembly 400 'further includes a lower limit plate 440', the lower limit plate 440 'being connected to the floating platform 410' and the upper base plate 110, respectively, the lower limit plate 440 'being elastically deformed in a direction perpendicular to the floating platform 410' to apply a force to move the floating platform 410 'to a restoring direction of the lower limit plate 440', the lower limit plate 440 'being rigid in a direction parallel to the floating platform 410' to limit a relative position of the floating platform 410 'and the upper base plate 110 in a direction parallel to the floating platform 410'.
Wherein, the lower limiting piece 440' has elasticity, the lower limiting piece 440' is deformed only in the direction in which the floating platform 410' moves up and down, so that the floating platform 410' can change the inclination angle, and an external force for moving the floating platform 410' upwards is applied to the floating platform 410' in the process of restoring the lower limiting piece 440 '. Meanwhile, the lower limit plate 440 'has rigidity in a direction perpendicular to the movement direction of the floating platform 410', and the floating platform 410 'cannot move in a horizontal direction, thereby preventing the floating platform 410' from shaking left and right. The lower limit plate 440' may be a metal plate, such as a spring steel plate, and the lower limit plate 440' has a plate-like structure and is parallel to the floating platform 410 '. The number of the lower limit pieces 440' may be four, and the four lower limit pieces 440' are respectively disposed at four corners of the floating platform 410', so as to enhance the acting force from the four corners of the floating platform 410', thereby avoiding the problem of insufficient force application strength of the single lower limit piece 440', and enabling the floating platform 410' to be in an initial position under the action of the four lower limit pieces 440 '.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 15, the lower limit plate 440' may have a plate structure with a bent structure, or, as shown in fig. 12, the lower limit plate 440' may include a flat plate 442' and a spring plate 441', and the spring plate 441' and the flat plate 442' cooperate with each other to realize the function of the lower limit plate 440'.
Specifically, the screen adjusting assembly 400 'further includes a second connection bolt 460', and the lower limit plate 440 'is connected to the upper chassis 110 by the second connection bolt 460'.
It is understood that, regarding the elastic member 600 and the lower limit tab 440', only one may be provided, for example, the screen adjustment assembly 400' may include only the elastic member 600, or the screen adjustment assembly 400 'may include only the lower limit tab 440', or the screen adjustment assembly 400 'may include both the elastic member 600 and the lower limit tab 440'.
In some embodiments, profiled platform 700 may also be leveled by: the three-dimensional forming device further comprises a position detection device 900 and a control device, in the leveling process, the forming platform 700 is controlled to move towards the direction close to the trough assembly 200, when the forming platform 700 reaches the bottom of the trough assembly 200, the position detection device 900 sends a leveling signal, the control device controls the forming platform 700 to move continuously towards the direction close to the trough assembly 200 for a first preset distance according to the leveling signal, so that the forming platform 700 can reliably press down the floating platform 410', the floating platform 410' is subjected to downward pressure displacement, and as shown in fig. 13, four elastic pieces 600 are respectively subjected to forces with different magnitudes and generate reaction forces with different magnitudes to support the floating platform 410', and the floating platform 410' is attached to the forming platform 700, so that leveling-free is achieved. The process can eliminate the influence of the mechanical assembly error structure of the equipment on the leveling result, reduce the gap between the forming platform 700 and the bottom of the trough assembly 200 in practice, ensure the close fitting of the forming platform 700 and the release film 210 at the bottom of the trough assembly 200, ensure that the forming platform 700, the trough assembly 200 or the exposure screen of the printer maintain a parallel state as much as possible, ensure that the printing material in the gap can be completely solidified and adhered to the bottom of the forming platform 700, and facilitate the separation from the trough. In addition, if the forming platform 700 is detected to reach the bottom of the trough, the forming platform 700 is controlled to continuously move a first preset distance towards the direction close to the trough assembly 200, so that the forming platform 700 and the bottom of the trough assembly 200 can be well guaranteed to be flatly attached, and when a small amount of detection errors exist in the detection of the forming platform 700 reaching the bottom of the trough, the detection errors can be compensated, and therefore the leveling effect is guaranteed.
Specifically, when the modeling platform 700 moves to the bottom of the trough assembly 200, the position detection device 900 sends a leveling signal, and the control device records the position of the modeling platform 700 as the origin position Z0, and the distance h1 from the modeling platform 700 to the floating platform 410'. Then, the control device drives the forming platform 700 to move downwards through the vertical movement mechanism 300 to press the floating platform 410', the floating platform 410' moves downwards by a distance h2, the position Z1 of the forming platform 700 is recorded, and Z1 = h1+ h2 is recorded, wherein the difference between h1 and h2 is in the range of 0.5mm to 2mm, and the error gap caused by the assembly of the forming platform 700 and the trough assembly 200 is not more than 0.4mm under normal conditions, so that the difference between h1 and h2 is limited to be in the range of 0.5mm to 2mm, the phenomenon that the solidified printing material cannot be firmly adhered on the forming platform 700 due to overlarge gap caused by unevenness between the forming platform 700 and the trough can be avoided, and the printing effect of the model and the printing success rate of the model can be improved.
In some possible embodiments provided by the present utility model, as shown in fig. 18, 19 and 20, the position detecting device 900 may be a photoelectric detection assembly, for example, the position detecting device 900 includes a sensing element 910 and a photoelectric switch 920, where the sensing element 910 and the photoelectric switch 920 cooperate to sense the distance between the molding platform 700 and the trough assembly 200 to send a leveling signal.
