Description

铺粉机的供粉装置 技术领域
本发明是有关于一种供粉装置，特别是关于应用在3D(三维)打印的一种铺粉机的供粉装置。

依据上述的结构，将容置在所述桶体31的粉料由所述出料口32输出，所述粉料会先通过所述搅拌棒41，使所述搅拌棒41的外螺纹部412对所述粉料进行搅动及挤压，使所述粉料更细致并避免粉料结块，进而使所述粉料 分布均匀；接着所述粉料会落入所述铺粉辊42上，并聚积在所述容料槽422，待所述容料槽422随着所述杆体421旋转向下时，能够控制所述粉料的供料量而定量的往下铺设，进而完成铺粉的作业。要说明的是，通过所述减速机构523的设计，使所述铺粉辊42转动时的转动圈数小于所述搅拌棒41转动时的转动圈数，可避免所述桶体31的粉料在落下时堆积而形成凹凸状，使所述供粉装置100能够达到更均匀的铺粉效果。
通过上述的设计，本发明供粉装置100利用所述搅拌棒41及所述铺粉辊42的设计，使所述桶体31的粉料能够先被搅动及挤压，通过所述铺粉辊42聚积所述粉料后进行均匀的铺设，不仅可使铺粉的粉料更细致，也可以避免粉料结块。另外，所述搅拌棒41及所述铺粉辊42的转速不同，使所述搅拌棒41搅动所述粉料而使所述粉料均匀，所述铺粉辊42通过所述容料槽422容置定量的粉料，能够有效控制所述粉料的供料量，使所述供粉装置100能够达到较佳的铺粉效果。
请参照图4至5所示，为本发明铺粉机的供粉装置的另一较佳实施例，并大致沿用相同组件名称及图号，但两者间差异的特征在于：所述连动组件52具有多个转轮521及一皮带522，所述转轮521分别安装在所述供粉单元4的搅拌棒41、铺粉辊42及所述马达51上，而且其中用以带动所述铺粉辊42的转轮521为一棘轮，设置在所述固定座2上。因此，当所述马达51转动时，所述皮带522会被带动而驱动所述搅拌棒41转动，同时所述皮带522也会带动所述铺粉辊42转动，即所述铺粉辊42及所述搅拌棒41的转动圈数相同。
如上所述，本发明供粉装置100利用所述搅拌棒41搅动所述粉料而使所述粉料均匀，同时通过所述铺粉辊42的容料槽422容置定量的粉料，能够有效控制所述粉料的供料量，使所述桶体31的粉料能够先被所述搅拌棒41均匀搅动及挤压，再由所述铺粉辊42聚积所述粉料后进行铺设，不仅可使铺粉 的粉料更细致及均匀，也可以避免粉料结块。另外，本发明供粉装置100也能够达到缩减所述减速机构体积的设计，因而提供另一种实施态样。
本发明已由上述相关实施例加以描述，然而上述实施例仅为实施本发明的范例。必需指出的是，已公开的实施例并未限制本发明的范围。相反的，包含于权利要求书的精神及范围的修改及均等设置均包括于本发明的范围内。
