[0037] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the present application provides a 3D printer for Chinese medicine insoles with a feeding function, comprising a workbench 1; a printing mechanism 2 is arranged on the workbench 1; the printing mechanism 2 comprises a printer body 21; a spray head 22 is rotatably arranged on the top of the printer body 21; a printing plate 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the printer body 21, and further comprises:

[0039] The moving mechanism 3 is arranged on one side of the workbench 1 and is used for unloading the Chinese medicine insoles after production;

[0040] A storage mechanism 4, connected to the moving mechanism 3, is used for storing Chinese medicine insoles;

[0041] A pressing mechanism 5 is arranged on the material storage mechanism 4 and is used to fix the Chinese medicine insole;

[0042] A material discharging mechanism 6, arranged on the moving mechanism 3, is used for discharging Chinese medicine insoles;

[0043] A clamping mechanism 7, connected to the feeding mechanism 6, for clamping the Chinese medicine insole;

[0044] During operation, in the prior art, the insoles printed by the 3D printer can be ergonomic. Although no manual intervention is required during the printing process, this device still requires manual removal of the insoles after printing is completed, and when it is busy, the staff may delay taking the insoles out of the printer for various reasons. If the insoles are not taken out for a long time, the insoles may be adhered to the bottom of the printer, thereby wasting materials and causing certain damage to the printer. In order to prevent such incidents from happening, first, the Chinese medicine insoles are printed out using the printer body 21, and then the feeding mechanism 6 in the moving mechanism 3 is driven to move, and the feeding mechanism 6 is used to drive the clamping mechanism 7 to move to the printer body 21, and then the insoles are clamped by the clamping mechanism 7. After clamping, the feeding mechanism 6 and the clamping mechanism 7 are returned and moved to the storage mechanism 4 by the moving mechanism 3 again, and the insoles are placed on the storage mechanism 4 after arriving at the storage mechanism 4 and the insoles are pressed by the pressing mechanism 5. While pressing, the feeding mechanism 6 and the clamping mechanism 7 are away from the storage mechanism 4, waiting for the printer body 21 to print out the next group of insoles.

[0045] like Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, the moving mechanism 3 includes a moving warehouse 31; the moving warehouse 31 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the workbench 1; a moving screw rod 33 is rotatably connected in the moving warehouse 31; a moving tooth 32 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the moving warehouse 31 above the moving screw rod 33; the unloading mechanism 6 includes a unloading column 61; the unloading column 61 is arranged in the moving warehouse 31; a unloading gear 62 is fixedly connected to the unloading column 61; the unloading gear 62 is meshed with the moving tooth 32; the unloading column 61 is fixedly connected to the end away from the unloading tooth with a telescopic cylinder 64; the clamping mechanism 7 is connected to the telescopic cylinder 64; the end of the unloading column 61 away from the telescopic cylinder 64 is rotatably connected to a slider 63; the slider 63 is threadedly connected to the moving screw rod 33; the storage mechanism 4 includes a base 41; the base 41 is fixedly connected to the end of the moving warehouse 31 away from the workbench 1; a chassis 43 is rotatably arranged on the base 41;

[0046] During operation, after the Chinese medicine insole is printed, the moving screw 33 in the moving bin 31 is driven to rotate, and the rotation will drive the threaded slider 63 to move, thereby driving the unloading column 61 above the slider 63 to move. When the unloading column 61 moves, the unloading gear 62 at its bottom will be driven by the moving teeth 32 to rotate, thereby rotating the unloading column 61, turning the clamping mechanism 7 on the unloading column 61 to the printer body 21, and using the telescopic cylinder 64 to extend the clamping mechanism 7 into the printer body 21 to clamp the insole. After clamping, the telescopic cylinder 64 retracts, and at this time the moving screw 33 is driven to rotate again, and the unloading column 61 is driven to move toward the storage mechanism 4 during rotation, and while moving, the clamping mechanism 7 is turned again by using the setting of the unloading gear 62, and it is directed toward the base 41, and then the insole is placed on the base 41 after reaching above the base 41, thereby completing the unloading of the insole.

[0047] like Figure 4 As shown, the clamping mechanism 7 includes a clamping bin 71; a clamping screw 72 is rotatably connected in the clamping bin 71; an L-column 73 is threadedly connected to the clamping screw 72; a rubber plate 75 is fixedly connected to the end of the L-column 73 away from the clamping screw 72; a clamping gear 74 is rotatably connected to the top of the clamping bin 71; the output end of the clamping gear 74 is fixedly connected to the input end of the clamping screw 72; a shovel plate 77 is fixedly connected to the end of the clamping bin 71 away from the clamping gear 74; a rack 1 65 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the telescopic cylinder 64; the rack 1 65 is meshedly connected to the clamping gear 74; a rack 2 76 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the L-column 73;

[0048] During operation, when the clamping bin 71 is driven to the front of the printer body 21, the telescopic cylinder 64 drives the clamping bin 71 to move into the printer body 21. While moving, the bottom of the shovel plate 77 at the bottom of the clamping bin 71 will fit with the surface of the printing plate 23, and the rack 65 on the telescopic cylinder 64 will drive the clamping gear 74 at the top of the clamping bin 71 to rotate. When the clamping gear 74 rotates, it will drive the clamping screw 72 in the clamping bin 71 to rotate, thereby driving the L column 73 to move toward the shovel plate 77. When the shovel plate 77 scoops up the insole on the printing plate 23, the rubber plate 75 above also contacts the insole and clamps it, and then drives the moving screw 33 in the moving bin 31 to rotate, and moves the clamping mechanism 7 and the unloading column 61 out of the printer body 21. Then, the clamping mechanism 7 is turned by the rotation of the unloading gear 62, and finally the insole is placed on the chassis 43.

[0049] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, a placement slot 44 is provided on the chassis 43; a connecting column 59 is rotatably connected to the middle of the chassis 43; the clamping mechanism 5 includes a clamping bin 51; the clamping bin 51 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting column 59 away from the chassis 43; a clamping screw 52 is rotatably connected in the clamping bin 51; a moving block 53 is threadedly connected to the clamping screw 52; two groups of moving blocks 53 are provided; a hinged rod 54 is hinged on the moving block 53; a pressing plate 55 is hinged at one end of the hinged rod 54 away from the moving block 53; a gear three 56 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the clamping bin 51; the output end of the gear three 56 is fixedly connected to the input end of the clamping screw 52; the gear three 56 is movably meshed with the rack two 76;

[0050] During operation, when the clamping bin 71 moves to the top of the chassis 43, the rack 2 76 on the L column 73 will be meshed and connected with the gear 3 56 on the side wall of the clamping bin 51, and then the telescopic cylinder 64 will retract. When retracting, it will drive the clamping gear 74 on the top of the clamping bin 71 to rotate again, thereby driving the L column 73 to rise. When the L column 73 rises, it will drive the rack 2 76 to rise at the same time, and then drive the gear 3 56 to rotate. When rotating, it will drive the clamping screw 52 in the clamping bin 51 to rotate, thereby driving the two sets of moving blocks 53 to move toward the middle to squeeze the hinged rod 54. The hinge rod 54 will move downward when squeezed, and then the pressure plate 55 at the end of the hinge rod 54 will be used to press the insole to fix it in the placement groove 44. Through the setting of the pressing mechanism 5, the insole can be fixed in the placement groove 44 by the pressing mechanism 5 while the clamping mechanism 7 releases the insole, so as to prevent the clamping mechanism 7 from dragging the insole when it is away from the chassis 43. At the same time, by using the settings of the rack 2 76 and the gear 3 56, the insole can be fixed to the placement groove 44 again by the pressure plate 55 while the insole is released by the L-pillar 73, so as to prevent the insole from falling off.

[0051] like Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, the middle of the base 41 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 42; the end of the rotating shaft 42 away from the base 41 is fixedly connected to the chassis 43; the side wall of the working chamber is rotatably connected to the driving gear 34; the input end of the driving gear 34 is fixedly connected to the output end of the moving screw 33; the bottom of the base 41 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod 46; the connecting rod 46 is rotatably connected to a gear 1 461 and a gear 2 462; the gear 1 461 is meshed with the driving gear 34; the gear 2 462 is sleeved with a driving belt 48 ; The bottom of the base 41 is rotatably connected to a driven gear 47; the output end of the driven gear 47 is fixedly connected to the input end of the rotating shaft 42; the end of the pressing chamber 51 away from the gear three 56 is rotatably connected to the gear four 57; the output end of the gear four 57 is fixedly connected to the input end of the pressing screw 52; the top of the pressing chamber 51 is rotatably connected to a transmission gear 58; the transmission gear 58 is meshed with the gear four 57; the chassis 43 is fixedly connected to a connecting rack 45; the connecting rack 45 is movably meshed with the transmission gear 58;

[0052] During operation, when the movable lead screw 33 rotates, it will drive the driving gear 34 on the side to rotate, thereby using the driving gear 34 to drive gear 1 461 to rotate, and gear 1 461 then drives gear 2 462 to rotate through the connecting rod 46, and gear 2 462 drives the driven gear 47 at the bottom of the base 41 to rotate through the driving belt 48, thereby driving the rotating shaft 42 to rotate. When the movable lead screw 33 drives the clamping mechanism 7 to move toward the chassis 43, the driving gear 34 and other components will be used to drive the chassis 43 to rotate. When the clamping mechanism 7 reaches the top of the chassis 43, the placement groove 44 on the chassis 43 will be moved to be parallel to the clamping mechanism 7, in order to facilitate the placement of the insole. At the same time, the setting of the rack 2 76 will be used to press the insole into the placement groove 44 by the driving pressure plate 55 to prevent the insole from being dragged by the shovel plate 77 and falling off. Then the movable lead screw 33 rotates again to move the clamping mechanism 7 to the printer body 21 When waiting for the next unloading, when the movable screw rod 33 rotates again, the chassis 43 will be driven to rotate again through the driving gear 34 and other components. When the chassis 43 rotates again, the placement slot 44 with the insole placed will be rotated to another place, which is convenient for the staff to collect. At the same time, when the chassis 43 rotates through the rotating shaft 42, the connecting rack 45 on the chassis 43 will be used to drive the transmission gear 58 above the pressing bin 51 to rotate. When rotating, it will drive the gear four 57 to rotate, thereby driving the pressing screw rod 52 to rotate again, so that the pressing plate 55 is out of control of the insole, and when the rack two 76 drives the gear three 56 to rotate, the gear four 57 is not engaged with the connecting rack 45. Through the setting of the driving gear 34, the chassis 43 can be rotated when the clamping mechanism 7 is away from the chassis 43, which will be convenient for the staff to collect the insole, and through the setting of the connecting rack 45, the fixing of the pressing plate 55 to the insole can be released while rotating.

[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, the workbench 1, the mobile bin 31 and the bottom of the base 41 are fixedly connected with a support leg 11; the bottom of the support leg 11 is fixedly connected with an anti-slip pad 12;

[0054] During operation, the support leg 11 can provide support, and the anti-skid pad 12 can prevent the support leg 11 from slipping, thereby preventing shaking during printing to affect the printing quality.

[0055] like Figure 2 As shown, the side wall of the workbench 1 is fixedly connected to a main motor 8; the moving screw rod 33 is driven to rotate by the main motor 8;

[0056] During operation, the main motor 8 drives the movable screw rod 33 to rotate, thereby driving each mechanism to work, thereby realizing automatic unloading of the insole.

[0057] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the present application provides a method for blanking a 3D printer of Chinese medicine insoles with a blanking function, comprising the following steps:

[0058] S1, first, use the printer body 21 on the workbench 1 to print out the Chinese medicine insole, and after the printing is completed, drive the moving screw 33 in the moving bin 31 to rotate, and use the feeding mechanism 6 and the clamping mechanism 7 to clamp the Chinese medicine insole during the rotation;

[0059] S2, after clamping the Chinese medicine insole, the movable screw rod 33 is driven to rotate again, and the clamping mechanism 7 is turned 180 degrees, so that the clamping mechanism 7 faces the storage mechanism 4, and then the movable screw rod 33 drives the clamping mechanism 7 to the chassis 43, and the Chinese medicine insole is placed in the placement groove 44;

[0060] S3, while placing, the Chinese medicine insole is fixed according to the pressing mechanism 5 to prevent the clamping mechanism 7 from pulling against the Chinese medicine insole when leaving;

[0061] During operation, first, the printer body 21 on the workbench 1 is used to print out the Chinese medicine insole. After printing is completed, the movable screw 33 in the movable bin 31 is driven to rotate. During rotation, the unloading mechanism 6 and the clamping mechanism 7 are used to clamp the insole. After clamping the insole, the movable screw 33 is driven to rotate again, and the clamping mechanism 7 is turned 180° so that the clamping mechanism 7 faces the material storage mechanism 4. Then the movable screw 33 drives the clamping mechanism 7 to the chassis 43, and the insole is placed in the placement groove 44. While placing, the insole is fixed according to the clamping mechanism 5 to avoid pulling between the clamping mechanism 7 and the insole when leaving.

[0062] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: after the printing of the Chinese medicine insole is completed, the moving screw 33 in the moving bin 31 is driven to rotate, and the threaded slider 63 is driven to move during the rotation, thereby driving the unloading column 61 above the slider 63 to move. When the unloading column 61 moves, the unloading gear 62 at its bottom is driven by the moving teeth 32 to rotate, thereby rotating the unloading column 61, turning the clamping mechanism 7 on the unloading column 61 to the printer body 21, and using the telescopic cylinder 64 to extend the clamping mechanism 7 into the printer body 21 to clamp the insole. After clamping, the telescopic cylinder 64 retracts, and at this time the moving screw 33 is driven to rotate again, and the unloading column 61 is driven to move toward the storage mechanism 4 during the rotation, and while moving, the clamping mechanism 7 is turned again by using the setting of the unloading gear 62, and is directed toward the base 41, and then the insole is placed on the base 41 after reaching above the base 41, thereby completing the unloading of the insole.

[0063] When the clamping bin 71 moves to the top of the chassis 43, the rack 2 76 on the L column 73 will be meshed with the gear 3 56 on the side wall of the clamping bin 51, and then the telescopic cylinder 64 will retract. When retracting, it will drive the clamping gear 74 on the top of the clamping bin 71 to rotate again, thereby driving the L column 73 to rise. When the L column 73 rises, it will drive the rack 2 76 to rise at the same time, and then drive the gear 3 56 to rotate. When rotating, it will drive the clamping screw 52 in the clamping bin 51 to rotate, thereby driving the two sets of moving blocks 53 to move to the middle to squeeze the hinged rod 54. The hinge rod 54 will move downward when squeezed, and then the pressure plate 55 at the end of the hinge rod 54 will be used to press the insole to fix it in the placement groove 44. Through the setting of the pressing mechanism 5, the insole can be fixed in the placement groove 44 by the pressing mechanism 5 while the clamping mechanism 7 releases the insole, so as to prevent the clamping mechanism 7 from dragging the insole when it is away from the chassis 43. At the same time, by using the settings of the rack 2 76 and the gear 3 56, the insole can be fixed to the placement groove 44 again by the pressure plate 55 while the insole is released by the L-pillar 73, so as to prevent the insole from falling off.
