[0043] See also Figures 1 to 9As shown, before the formal preparation of multiple bundles of long fiber twisted filaments for 3D printing, the fibers are wound on the rotating fiber rack 405. By pulling the fibers, the rotating fiber rack 405 is driven to rotate, thereby releasing the fibers. The fibers released from the pay-off device 4 enter the single-bundle twisting device 5, enter the brass rotating shaft 50407 from the side where the front bearing seat 50402 is located, pass through the head of the first dispensing needle 50411, pass through the tangent surface of the two rubber wheels 50413, and enter the brass driven shaft 50417 from the tail of the second dispensing needle 50414. The fibers coming out of the brass driven shaft 50417 enter from the horizontal end of the glass tube 605 of the rotating device 6 and come out from the end pointing to the main optical axis 1. The multiple bundles of fibers are gathered through the funnel 801 of the take-up device 8, pass through the extrusion device 9, and finally come out from the brass nozzle 1017 of the centering device 10.
[0044] After setting the speed of the stepper motor 50401 and starting it, its output shaft begins to rotate, driving the input-end synchronous wheel 50404 to rotate, and through the belt transmission of the synchronous belt 50405, the output-end synchronous wheel 50406 also rotates. The brass rotating shaft 50407 and the brass driven shaft 50417 rotate under the action of the output-end synchronous wheel 50406. At this time, one end of the single bundle of fibers is fixed on the rotating fiber rack 405, and the other end is fixed at the wellzoom extruder. With the rotation of the internal structure of the rotating monomer 504, the twisting of the single bundle of fibers is completed; after setting the rotation speed of the reduction motor 203, the reduction motor 203 drives the small cylindrical gear 204 to rotate, and the small cylindrical gear 204 then drives the large cylindrical gear 205 to rotate, and the large cylindrical gear 205 drives the main optical axis 1 to rotate, and the main optical axis 1 The fixed devices also rotate. One end of the multiple bundles of fibers that have completed single-bundle twisting at the single-bundle twisting device 5 is fixed at the extrusion device 9, and the other end is fixed at the wellzoom extruder. As the main optical axis 1 rotates, the composite twisting of multiple bundles of fibers is realized. The wellzoom extruder of the extrusion device 9 wraps the substrate for the outer layer of the fiber and finally extrudes it from the brass nozzle 1017. By rotating the rotating handle 1007 connected to the horizontal long trapezoidal screw 1003, the front and rear positions of the fiber bundle in the coated substrate can be finely controlled. By rotating the rotating handle 1007 connected to the vertical long trapezoidal screw 1011, the upper and lower positions of the fiber bundle in the coated substrate can be finely controlled. The two cooperate to realize that the fiber is located in the middle of the coated substrate, thereby completing the entire process of preparing multiple long-bundle fiber twisted filaments for 3D printing.
[0045] When the fiber bundle is used up or needs to be replaced with a fiber bundle of different material, it is only necessary to remove the coil blocking seat 407 and replace the rotating fiber rack 405.
[0046] When the twist number of a single fiber bundle needs to be changed, the speed of the stepper motor 50401 is changed, and the twist number of the single fiber bundle changes accordingly; when the twist number of multiple fiber bundles needs to be changed, the speed of the reduction motor 203 is changed, and the twist number of the multiple fiber bundles changes accordingly.
[0047] Although the present invention shows and describes specific implementation methods, those skilled in the art can make various changes, substitutions and modifications to these examples and design similar solutions without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. All embodiments that fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.
