A follow-up feeding device for a 3D printing robot and a 3D printing robot

Abstract

The invention discloses a follow-up feeding device for a 3D printing robot, which includes a walking mechanism that communicates with the 3D printing robot in real time and follows its movement, a material storage mechanism, and a material delivery mechanism for delivering materials to the 3D printing robot. The mechanism and the material conveying mechanism are arranged on the walking mechanism, and the material conveying mechanism is respectively connected with the material storage mechanism and the 3D printing robot. Materials required for 3D printing are stored in the material storage mechanism, and the material delivery mechanism transports the materials from the material storage mechanism to the 3D printing robot to realize 3D printing. The walking mechanism moves with the movement of the 3D printing robot. The invention can prevent the long pipeline from the material transport vehicle to the 3D printing robot from damaging the newly formed molded body. Since the material storage mechanism can store materials, there is no need for a material transport vehicle to be on site after adding materials, and one material transport vehicle can be connected to multiple 3D printing robots at the same time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of 3D printing, in particular to a follow-up feeding device for a 3D printing robot and a 3D printing robot. Background technique [0002] 3D printing is a kind of rapid prototyping technology. It is a technology based on digital model files and using bondable materials such as powdered metal or plastic to construct objects by layer-by-layer printing. [0003] The existing 3D printing robot 400 is an extended robot disclosed in Chinese patent CN106564189, which uses the 3D printing robot 400 to walk on the printed molded body 300 to achieve layer-by-layer printing. The 3D printing robot 400 is connected to the material transport vehicle 100 through the feeding tube to realize the delivery of printing materials. Not only does it need a long delivery tube 200, but the delivery tube 200 is easy to damage the printed molded body 300, and there is a long-term occupancy. Disadvantages of Material Handling Vehicle 100 . ...
