Problems solved by technology

The consumption of consumables for 3D printers is also very large, so there is a serious problem of waste in the face of many surplus materials
In this way, the materials of the printer need to be replaced continuously. Since the final materials cannot guarantee the completion of the printing task, generally people will discard the remaining materials and replace them with new materials, which will cause a huge waste of wire materials. , if the two rolls of material can be well connected from the beginning to the end, the above waste will be avoided

Embodiment Construction

[0027] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the following description.

[0028] Such as figure 1 As shown, a hot-melt 3D printing consumable connector includes an upper connecting part 1, a lower connecting part 2 and a heating part 3, such as figure 2 As shown, the upper connection part 1 includes an upper heating chamber 1a and upper cooling fixtures symmetrically arranged on both sides of the upper heating chamber 1a. The upper cooling fixture includes an upper cooling channel 1b and an upper fixing splint 1c. One end of the cooling channel 1b is connected to the upper heating chamber 1a, and the other end is connected to the upper fixing splint 1c. The center position of the lower surface of the upper heating chamber 1a is embedded with an upper consumable slot 1e along the axial direction of the upper cooling channel 1b. Upper positioning p...

Abstract

The invention relates to a hot melting 3D printing consumable connector. The hot melting 3D printing consumable connector comprises an upper connecting part, a lower connecting part and a heating part. The upper connecting part comprises an upper heating cavity and upper cooling fixing parts which are symmetrically arranged on the two sides of the upper heating cavity. The lower connecting part comprises a lower heating cavity and lower cooling fixing parts which are symmetrically arranged on the two sides of the lower heating cavity. When the upper connecting part is connected with the lowerconnecting part, an upper positioning piece is clamped and matched with a lower positioning piece, an upper consumable slot hole and a lower consumable slot hole are combined into a consumable slot hole, a consumable A to be connected is inserted into the consumable slot hole from one side of the upper connecting part, a consumable B to be connected is inserted into the consumable slot hole from the other side of the upper connecting part, and the consumable A to be connected abuts against the consumable B to be connected. The hot melting 3D printing consumable connector has the advantages that a melted and connected wire can be directly formed through a wrapping type hot melting cavity, the size of the outer diameter is ensured, the problem that the shape of a connection point is irregular is solved, a large amount of grinding and machining work is not needed, the connection success rate is high, and the connection efficiency is relatively high.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of 3D printing, in particular to a hot-melt 3D printing consumable connector. Background technique [0002] Today, with the rapid development of technology, 3D printers are widely used, and most printers are hot-melt type, which is also the most common printer in our daily life and work. This type of printer melts consumables with a fixed cross-sectional area Out of the final natural cooling molding. The consumption of consumables of 3D printers is also very large, so there is a serious waste problem in the face of many surplus materials. [0003] The existing consumable connector has a very simple structure and is very troublesome to operate. It uses a detachable aluminum alloy bracket to fix the two ends of the consumables to be connected on the same line. It needs to be heated by a lighter or other heating methods to melt the two ends of the consumables directly. , and then pass or this makes the shape ...
