Problems solved by technology

This kind of manufacturing method has complex steps, cumbersome process, low production efficiency, and high requirements for the operation of the infusion process. It is very easy to cause insufficient liquid metal infusion due to small mistakes in the infusion process, which will further lead to circuit breakage and failure, which is not conducive to large-scale industrialization. mass production

Embodiment Construction

[0077] Such as figure 1 As shown, a flexible electronic three-dimensional printing device for polymer liquid metal co-printing, including an installation frame 31, a coaxial nozzle 1 installed on the installation frame 31 for printing, a three-dimensional motion mechanism, a feeding device, a receiving device, a control system, auxiliary curing device and heating unit 35. The control system can be realized by existing industrial computer or control chip. The installation frame 31 provides positioning and support for the whole device, and is the installation skeleton of the whole device.

[0078] The coaxial nozzle 1 includes an inner tube and an outer tube arranged coaxially. The inner tube forms an internal feeding chamber, and the outer tube and the wall of the inner tube form an external feeding chamber. The nozzle, the inner tube and the outer tube are gathered at the bottom to form a coaxial inner nozzle and an outer nozzle. The feeding port of the outer tube of the co...

Abstract

The invention discloses a flexible circuit three-dimensional printing device for high-molecular liquid-state metal co-printing. The flexible circuit three-dimensional printing device comprises a mounting framework, a coaxial spray head mounted in the mounting framework, a material supply device, a receiving device and a three-dimensional motion mechanism for driving the coaxial spray head to perform three-dimensional motion relative to the receiving device, and further comprises an auxiliary curing device which synchronously moves with the coaxial spray head to spray printed and discharged materials. The flexible circuit three-dimensional printing device is characterized in that the coaxial spray head comprises inner and outer liquid-state metal charge cavity and high-molecular charge cavity which are independent from each other, and an inner spray head and an outer spray head which communicate with corresponding guide cavities separately and are coaxially arranged. XYZE four-axis motion is utilized for realizing printing of a three-dimensional structure, and the auxiliary curing device, a heating device and a bearing unit convenient for separating printed products solve the problem that a silica gel material is difficult in curing and is difficult to separate. The flexible circuit three-dimensional printing device is convenient to operate, and can quickly and directly print out a complete three-dimensional flexible circuit structure with liquid-state metal therein.
