Embodiment 1

[0038] see figure 1 and Figure 10 , a 3D printing robot that can move freely, including an omnidirectional mobile platform mechanism 100, a Z-axis lifting mechanism 200, a 3D printing mechanism 300, a feedback / communication / control circuit 400, and the omnidirectional mobile platform mechanism 100 is fixedly connected to the Z-axis lifting mechanism. The mechanism 200, the Z-axis lifting mechanism 200 is fixedly connected to the 3D printing mechanism 300, and at the same time, the feedback / communication / control circuit 400 is installed on the omnidirectional mobile platform mechanism 100;

[0039]The omnidirectional mobile platform mechanism 100 includes a mobile platform base 111, a motion motor 112, and a motion wheel 113. The motion motor 112 is installed on the mobile platform base 111 and the output end is connected with a motion wheel 113 to form a wheel motion mechanism.

[0040] The Z-axis lifting mechanism 200 includes a lifting motor 211, a lifting and moving auxil...

Embodiment 2

[0045] The technical solution of this embodiment is basically the same as that of Embodiment 1, the difference is that:

[0046] see figure 2 , in this embodiment, the omni-directional mobile platform mechanism 100 is arranged symmetrically according to the center of the mobile platform base 111 with 4 omnidirectional drive wheel motion mechanisms that are 90 degrees to each other, and the rotational speed of the 4 motion wheels 113 is controlled by the motion motor 112 Realize the all-round movement of the all-round mobile platform.

Embodiment 3

[0048] The technical solution of this embodiment is basically the same as that of Embodiment 1, the difference is that:

[0049] see image 3 , in this embodiment, the omni-directional mobile platform mechanism 100 should also include the steering motor 121 that can realize the steering of the moving wheel 113, and the omni-directional mobile platform mechanism 100 is arranged in a rectangular shape according to the mobile platform base 111. 4 can simultaneously realize the driving And the wheel kinematic mechanism of turning, realizes the omnidirectional movement of omnidirectional mobile platform by steering motor 121 and kinematic motor 112 to control the steering and the rotating speed of 4 kinematic wheels 113.

Abstract

The invention relates to a 3D printing robot capable of freely moving. The 3D printing robot capable of freely moving comprises an omni-directional mobile platform mechanism, a Z-axis lifting mechanism, a 3D printing mechanism and a feedback / communication / control circuit. The 3D printing robot capable of freely moving is characterized in that the Z-axis lifting mechanism is fixedly connected to the omni-directional mobile platform mechanism, the 3D printing mechanism is fixedly connected to the Z-axis lifting mechanism, the feedback / communication / control circuit is installed on the omni-directional mobile platform mechanism simultaneously, and the omni-directional mobile platform mechanism and the Z-axis lifting mechanism are controlled by virtue of the feedback / communication / control circuit to drive the 3D printing mechanism to realize printing of a strip-shaped object without a dimensional limit in a three-dimensional space. The 3D printing robot capable of freely moving has the characteristics of compact structure, small size, no printed object dimensional limit of the traditional 3D printer, high movement flexibility and high printing speed; meanwhile, the cooperative communication of any multiple printing robots is realized, and the 3D printing efficiency is further enhanced. The 3D printing robot capable of freely moving is especially suitable for low-cost and high-efficiency printing of large-distance strip-shaped objects such as building walls.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to both the technical field of 3D printer and the technical field of mobile robot, in particular to a freely movable 3D printing robot. Background technique [0002] 3D printer, also known as three-dimensional printer, is a kind of cumulative manufacturing technology, that is, a machine of rapid prototyping technology. It is based on a digital model file, using special wax, powdered metal or plastic and other bondable materials. Print layer by layer of adhesive material to create three-dimensional objects. At this stage, 3D printers are used to manufacture products, and the technology of constructing objects by layer-by-layer printing. [0003] Since 3D printing technology can be used in jewelry, footwear, industrial design, architecture, engineering and construction (AEC), automotive, aerospace, dental and medical industries, education, GIS, civil engineering, and many other fields. It is often used in mold manufacturin...
