Of course, in some other embodiments of the present invention, the second bracket 102 can also be provided between the front wall of the housing 100 and the linear drive 210, as long as it can support the linear drive 210.

[0033] In some embodiments of the present invention, the 3D printer wax supply box further includes two slide rails 103 disposed outside the housing 100, and the two slide rails 103 are respectively disposed on the front wall and the rear wall of the housing 100. The two slide rails 103 are both disposed horizontally, so that the 3D printer wax supply box can be slidably installed on the 3D printer through the two slide rails 103, and the barrel can be taken and placed by pulling out the 3D printer wax supply box, and the bottom wall of the housing 100 can be suspended and does not need to be close to other components of the 3D printer, so as to facilitate heat dissipation.

[0034] In some embodiments of the present invention, the discharge channel 203 is vertically arranged, and a receiving groove 220 is vertically slidably arranged in the discharge channel 203. The top of the receiving groove 220 is open, and a third opening is arranged at the bottom of the receiving groove 220. A first elastic member 224 is connected between the receiving groove 220 and the base 200. A first plug 221 for blocking the third opening is arranged in the receiving groove 220, and a vertically arranged first connecting rod 222 is arranged at the bottom of the first plug 221. The lower end of the first connecting rod 222 is connected to the base 200. It should be noted that the barrel may use the barrel proposed in patent CN202111680529.9, that is, a protrusion is arranged at the bottom of the barrel, and the protrusion can be inserted into the top of the receiving groove 220, and the protrusion is provided with an opening so that the wax liquid in the barrel can flow from the protrusion to the receiving groove 220; refer to Figure 3 The receiving groove 220 is in a vertically arranged cylindrical shape, the inner diameter of the upper portion of the receiving groove 220 is larger than the inner diameter of the lower portion of the receiving groove 220, the third opening is arranged at the bottom of the lower portion of the receiving groove 220, and the inner diameter of the lower portion of the receiving groove 220 is larger than the inner diameter of the third opening;

[0035] The receiving groove 220 slides along the discharge channel 203 and has a raised state and a lowered state. In the raised state, the edge of the first plug 221 is sealed and abutted against the third opening, and in the lowered state, the first plug 221 is separated from the third opening; the discharge channel 203 has a first section and a second section, the first section is arranged on the upper side of the second section, the diameter of the first section is larger than the diameter of the second section, the receiving groove 220 is arranged in the first section, and a perforated plate 223 is arranged at the bottom of the first section, the perforated plate 223 is abutted against the second section, and the bottom of the first connecting rod 222 is fixedly connected to the perforated plate 223, so that the receiving groove 220, the first connecting rod 222 and the perforated plate 223 can be moved from the discharge channel The first elastic member 224 is a spring, which is sleeved on the outside of the first connecting rod 222, and the two ends of the first elastic member 224 are respectively in contact with the receiving groove 220 and the orifice plate 223. The receiving groove 220 is in a lowered state when the first elastic member 224 is in a compressed state. In this way, when not in use, the receiving groove 220 is in a raised state under the action of the first elastic member 224, and the first plug 221 blocks the third opening to prevent dust, hair and other impurities or animals such as insects and ants from entering the interior of the 3D printer through the third opening. When it needs to be restored to use, the receiving groove 300 can be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner.

[0036] In some embodiments of the present invention, a card block is provided in the base 200 for horizontal sliding, a card slot is provided on the left outer wall of the receiving groove 220, the card block is provided with a card-in portion 251 and a pushing portion, the card-in portion 251 is provided in the card slot, the pushing portion protrudes to the right from the base 200, a second elastic component 254 is connected between the pushing portion and the base 200, and the housing 100 is provided with a driving device for driving the pushing portion. In the raised state, the slot is arranged above the block; in the lowered state, the slot is flush with the block, and the block moves to the right under the action of the second elastic member 254, so that the snap-in portion 251 is inserted into the slot; the slot can extend into a ring along the outer periphery of the receiving groove 220, and the block can be a transversely arranged sliding plate 252, and a transversely arranged top rod 253 is arranged at the right end of the sliding plate 252, and a vertically arranged avoidance through hole is arranged in the middle of the sliding plate 252, and the receiving groove 220 passes through the avoidance through hole, and the left part of the sliding plate 252 is the snap-in portion 251, and the front, rear, right part of the sliding plate 252 and the top rod 253 are combined to form a pushing portion, and the top rod 253 extends to the right to the outside of the base 200.

[0037] During use, it was found that if the elastic force of the first elastic component 224 is relatively small, it is difficult to make the first plug 221 and the third opening fit tightly after the barrel is taken out, and the sealing effect is poor; if the elastic force of the first elastic component 224 is relatively large, then when the wax liquid in the barrel is about to flow out, the weight of the barrel decreases, and the first elastic component 224 pushes the receiving groove 220 upward, resulting in the wax liquid in the barrel cannot flow out completely, causing waste. In this embodiment, a clamping block and a driving device are provided. When the material barrel is put into use, the material barrel presses down the receiving groove 220 so that the groove drops to be level with the clamping block. The clamping block moves to the right under the action of the second elastic member 254 to insert the clamping portion 251 into the groove. When the wax liquid in the material barrel is about to flow out, the clamping block can prevent the receiving groove 220 from moving upward so that the wax liquid in the material barrel can flow out completely. After the wax liquid in the material barrel has completely flowed out, the driving device drives the clamping block to move to the left, the clamping portion 251 leaves the groove, and the receiving groove 220 moves upward to close the discharge channel 203.

[0038] In some embodiments of the present invention, the driving device includes a mounting seat 404, a horizontal bar 403 and a vertical bar 402. The horizontal bar 403 is arranged on the right side of the pushing part. The horizontal bar 403 is connected to the mounting seat 404 for left-right sliding. The right end of the horizontal bar 403 is provided with a first inclined surface. The vertical bar 402 is connected to the mounting seat 404 for up and down sliding. The lower end of the vertical bar 402 is provided with a second inclined surface. The first inclined surface and the second inclined surface are abutted. The first inclined surface and the second inclined surface are both arranged to be inclined downward from the left, and a pressing plate 401 is provided at the top of the vertical bar 402. The mounting seat 404 is mounted on the right wall of the housing 100 by bolts, the horizontal bar 403 is arranged horizontally, the vertical bar 402 is arranged vertically, the mounting seat 404 is provided with a first sliding hole corresponding to the horizontal bar 403, the horizontal bar 403 is arranged in the first sliding hole to achieve sliding connection, the mounting seat 404 is provided with a second sliding hole corresponding to the vertical bar 402, the vertical bar 402 is arranged in the second sliding hole to achieve sliding connection; the top wall of the housing 100 is provided with a groove corresponding to the vertical bar 402, the vertical bar 402 passes through the bottom of the groove, the pressing plate 401 is arranged in the groove, and a spring is arranged in the groove and on the lower side of the pressing plate 401 to promote the resetting of the vertical bar 402 and the pressing plate 401. In this way, pressing the pressing plate 401 can move the second inclined surface downward, thereby moving the first inclined surface to the left, that is, the horizontal bar 403 moves to the left, and the horizontal bar 403 pushes the push part to move to the left, thereby driving the push part.

[0039] A limiting groove 229 can also be provided on the receiving groove 220. The structure of the limiting groove 229 is consistent with that of the card slot. The limiting groove 229 is provided below the card slot. In this way, after the wax liquid in the barrel has completely flowed out, the pressing plate 401 is pressed down to make the first elastic component 224 lift up the receiving groove 220. Then, the pressing plate 401 can be released immediately to make the snap-in portion 251 snap into the limiting groove 229, thereby preventing the receiving groove 220 from completely flying out of the discharge channel 203 under the action of the first elastic component 224 and inertia.

[0040] In some embodiments of the present invention, an abutment block is provided at the right end of the push portion, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the abutment block is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the cross bar 403. This can prevent the push portion and the cross bar 403 from being misaligned, so that the cross bar 403 can stably push the push portion; of course, an abutment block can also be provided at the left end of the cross bar 403.

[0041] In some embodiments of the present invention, the second elastic member 254 is connected between the abutment block and the base 200. In this way, the second elastic member 254 is arranged outside the base 200, which is convenient for inspection and replacement.

[0042] In some embodiments of the present invention, the second elastic member 254 is a spring, which has a simple structure and low cost.

[0043] In some embodiments of the present invention, the second elastic member 254 is sleeved outside the push portion. The second elastic member 254 is sleeved outside the top rod 253; this can prevent the second elastic member 254 from falling off, and the structure is stable.

[0044] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are specifically described above, but the present invention is not limited to the embodiments. Those skilled in the art may make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without violating the spirit of the present invention.
