Embodiment Construction

[0032] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments, which are explanations of the present invention rather than limitations.

[0033] Such as image 3 , Figure 5 As shown, a variable cross-section open-hole grid support structure according to the present invention includes a plurality of open-hole grid support units 1 stacked in sequence along the vertical direction, and each open-hole grid support unit 1 is composed of multiple The grid unit body 2 is arrayed along the horizontal direction. The grid unit body 2 is an empty pipe structure arranged along the vertical direction. The grid openings 3 form a powder outlet channel. The size of the grid unit body 2 of a plurality of opening grid support units 1 along the vertical direction increases sequentially. The lower layer of two adjacent opening grid support units 1 The size of the grid unit body 2 of the perforated grid support unit 1 is twice that of the grid un...

Abstract

The invention discloses a variable cross-section opening grid supporting structure and a generation method thereof. Opening grid supporting units are formed by arraying a plurality of grid units in different sizes, and a plurality of opening grid supporting units are overlapped so that support units are formed for changing the support form; the side walls of the opening grid supporting units are provided with grid openings penetrating through the opening grid supporting units horizontally so that a lateral powder discharging channel is formed; thus, powder in supports can be cleared completelyafter forming, and recycled before heat treatment after forming of parts; the printing rate is increased, and the post-processing difficulty is reduced; a cross-section structure is formed through three-dimensional drawing software, and the supports are arrayed and arranged according to the requirements; the powder that can not be cleared from the interior of a traditional grid support is clearedcompletely, and the usage amount of the forming powder is reduced; the printing rate is higher through design of the grip supports with lateral powder discharge, and the forming time is shortened; and the efficiency is improved, and the cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a support in selective laser melting forming technology, in particular to a variable cross-section opening grid support structure and a generation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Selective laser melting forming technology is a rapid additive manufacturing forming technology. It uses laser heat source and accumulates layer by layer after powder coating to quickly realize the near-net shape of high-complexity parts. Given its layer-by-layer forming method, it is necessary to add grid support to its suspended surfaces, edges, points, and features that cannot be self-supporting to ensure the smooth forming of the parts, while achieving the required surface roughness and dimensional accuracy. [0003] Existing mesh supports such as figure 1 with figure 2 As shown in the figure, the grid support form included in the software is added for support, which is a vertical grid, and only the size of a single grid unit and t...
