[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. The present invention can freely move the position of the injection mechanism through the adjustment mechanism, and can switch the vertical nozzle and the horizontal nozzle through the cooperation of the door plate and the conversion gear ring, so as to achieve different printing directions. When the conversion gear ring rotates clockwise, the driving arc arm squeezes the door plate and retracts it into the storage chamber one. After the driving arc arm is separated from the vertical extrusion rod, the horizontal extrusion rod retracts into the linkage groove under the action of the reset spring two. Therefore, during the printing operation, the bottom of the moving discharge plug completely abuts against the inner wall of the tapered vertical nozzle and blocks the vertical nozzle. At this time, the printing material is directly injected into the horizontal nozzle through the horizontal discharge groove. When the conversion gear ring rotates counterclockwise, the driving arc arm retracts into the storage chamber two, and at this time, the door plate closes the side discharge chamber under the action of the reset member. After the driving arc arm squeezes the vertical extrusion rod, the horizontal extrusion rod moves inward along the linkage groove and supports the moving discharge plug. Therefore, during printing, the bottom of the moving discharge plug cannot completely abut against the inner wall of the vertical nozzle, and the inner wall of the outer shell blocks the horizontal discharge slot. At this time, the printing material is directly injected into the vertical nozzle through the vertical discharge slot, and this design improves the degree of freedom of the architectural 3D printing device.

[0018] 2. The present invention can quickly unload the printed parts through the unloading mechanism. When the unloading cylinder moves upward, under the linkage of the lifting swing arm, the lifting plate will move upward obliquely and squeeze the lifting arm and the push rod. Since the lifting arm extends out of the bottom of the push rod, the push rod will lift the swing plate upward and tilt it toward the outer conveyor belt. And because the lifting plate moves upward obliquely, the heights of the two sets of lifting arms on the outside are slightly lower than the two sets of lifting arms on the inside. At this time, the building components are lifted and slide into the conveyor belt. This design improves the unloading efficiency of the building 3D printing equipment.

[0036] In this embodiment: the 3D printing device for construction is mainly divided into three parts: an adjustment mechanism 1, an ejection mechanism 2 and a feeding mechanism 3. The adjustment mechanism 1 is used to adjust the degree of freedom of the ejection mechanism 2, wherein the lifting cylinder 101, the first motion motor 105 and the second motion motor 108 cooperate with each other to adjust the movement of the ejection mechanism 2 in the XYZ direction, and the rotating gear ring 204 can drive the ejection mechanism 2 to rotate as a whole. When printing is completed, the feeding mechanism 3 can feed and convey the building components. When the device is in use, when the conversion gear ring 221 rotates clockwise, the driving arc arm 223 squeezes the door panel 216 and retracts it into the storage chamber 1 215. When the driving arc arm 223 is separated from the vertical extrusion rod 231, the horizontal extrusion rod 232 retracts into the linkage groove 230 under the action of the return spring 235. Therefore, during the printing operation, the bottom of the moving material plug 206 completely abuts against the inner wall of the tapered vertical nozzle 205 and blocks the vertical nozzle 205, and at this time, the printing material is directly injected into the horizontal nozzle 228 through the horizontal discharge trough 213. When the conversion gear ring 221 rotates counterclockwise, the driving arc arm 223 retracts into the storage chamber 218, and at this time, the door plate 216 closes the side discharge chamber 214 under the action of the reset member 217. After the driving arc arm 223 squeezes the vertical extrusion rod 231, the horizontal extrusion rod 232 moves inward along the linkage groove 230 and supports the moving material plug 206. Therefore, during the printing operation, the bottom of the moving material plug 206 cannot completely abut against the inner wall of the vertical nozzle 205, and the inner wall of the outer shell 201 blocks the horizontal discharge trough 213. At this time, the printing material is directly injected into the vertical nozzle 205 through the vertical discharge trough 212. After printing is completed, the unloading cylinder 302 is started and moved upward. At this time, under the linkage of the lifting swing arm 301, the lifting plate 304 will move obliquely upward and squeeze the lifting arm 305 and the push rod 307. Since the bottom of the push rod 307 extends out of the lifting arm 305, the push rod 307 will lift the swing plate 306 upward and tilt it toward the outer conveyor belt 114. And because the lifting plate 304 moves obliquely upward, the heights of the two sets of lifting arms 305 on the outside are slightly lower than the two sets of lifting arms 305 on the inside. Under the support of the lifting arm 305 and the swing plate 306, the building components fall onto the conveyor belt 114.

[0037] See attached Figure 1 -Attached Figure 2 The horizontal frame 103 is internally rotatably provided with a threaded rod 104, and the outer side of the horizontal frame 103 is also equipped with a first motion motor 105 connected to the threaded rod 104; the bottom of the motion frame 106 is movably provided with multiple groups of threaded rods 107, and the side of the motion frame 106 is also equipped with a second motion motor 108 connected to the threaded rod 107.

[0038] In this embodiment, in order to freely move the injection mechanism 2 in three directions of X, Y and Z, a lifting cylinder 101, a first motion motor 105 and a second motion motor 108 that cooperate with each other are designed.

[0039] See attached Figure 1 -Attached Figure 2 A rotating ring gear 204 is also installed on the outer shell 201, and a rotating motor 111 is also installed at the bottom of the sports car 109. The output end of the rotating motor 111 is installed with a driving gear 112 that meshes with the rotating ring gear 204.

[0040] In this embodiment, in order to rotate the spray mechanism 2 as a whole and thereby adjust the position of the horizontal nozzle 228, the outer shell 201 is movably arranged in the installation cavity 110 via a bearing (not shown).

[0041] See attached Figure 3 -Attached Figure 6 A movable discharge plug 206 is slidably installed inside the outer shell 201, and an annular discharge trough 211 is provided on the top of the movable discharge plug 206, a vertical discharge trough 212 is provided at the bottom of the annular discharge trough 211, and a horizontal discharge trough 213 cooperating with the side discharge cavity 214 is provided in the middle of the vertical discharge trough 212; when the conversion ring gear 221 rotates, the conversion of the vertical nozzle 205 and the side discharge cavity 214 can be realized.

[0042] In this embodiment: when the conversion gear ring 221 rotates clockwise, the driving arc arm 223 squeezes the door plate 216 and retracts it into the storage chamber 1 215. After the driving arc arm 223 is separated from the vertical squeezing rod 231, the horizontal squeezing rod 232 retracts into the linkage groove 230 under the action of the reset spring 235. Therefore, during the printing operation, the bottom of the moving discharge plug 206 completely abuts against the inner wall of the tapered vertical nozzle 205 and blocks the vertical nozzle 205. At this time, the printing material is directly injected into the horizontal nozzle 228 through the horizontal discharge groove 213. When the conversion gear ring 221 rotates counterclockwise, the driving arc arm 223 retracts into the storage chamber 218. At this time, the door plate 216 closes the side discharge chamber 214 under the action of the reset member 217. After the driving arc arm 223 squeezes the vertical squeezing rod 231, the horizontal squeezing rod 232 moves inward along the linkage slot 230 and supports the moving material discharge plug 206. Therefore, during the printing operation, the bottom of the moving material discharge plug 206 cannot completely abut against the inner wall of the vertical nozzle 205, and the inner wall of the outer shell 201 blocks the horizontal material discharge slot 213. At this time, the printing material is directly injected into the vertical nozzle 205 through the vertical material discharge slot 212.

[0043] See attached Figure 6 -Attached Figure 7The top of the top cover 202 is connected to a slurry pipe 203 , and an annular gas injection mechanism 210 is installed on the inner wall of the top cover 202 . The gas injection mechanism 210 is located above the annular feed chute 211 .

[0044] In this embodiment, the gas injection mechanism 210 is connected to an external air blowing device. During the printing operation, the raw material in the annular feed chute 211 is driven by the gas injection mechanism 210 to be accelerated and ejected into the vertical nozzle 205 or the horizontal nozzle 228 .

[0045] See attached Figure 5 , Attachment Figure 7 -Attached Figure 8 and attached Fig.10 An extrusion groove 229 connected to the second storage chamber 218 is provided inside the outer shell 201, and the bottom of the extrusion groove 229 is connected to a linkage groove 230 facing inward; a vertical extrusion rod 231 is slidably installed in the extrusion groove 229, and a horizontal extrusion rod 232 is slidably installed in the linkage groove 230; symmetrical reset grooves 233 are provided on both sides of the linkage groove 230, and convex plates 234 slidably arranged in the reset groove 233 are provided on both sides of the horizontal extrusion rod 232, and the outer side of the convex plate 234 is connected to a reset spring 235, and the convex plate 234 is connected to the inner wall of the reset groove 233 through the reset spring 235.

[0046] In this embodiment: In order to synchronously control the fit between the moving feed plug 206 and the inner wall of the bottom vertical nozzle 205 by driving the sliding of the arc arm 223, a linked vertical extrusion rod 231 and a horizontal extrusion rod 232 are designed. When the driving arc arm 223 squeezes the vertical extrusion rod 231, the vertical extrusion rod 231 moves downward along the extrusion groove 229. Driven by the vertical extrusion rod 231, the horizontal extrusion rod 232 moves inward along the linkage groove 230 and supports the moving feed plug 206, thereby realizing the change of the printing direction. When the lower driving arc arm 223 retracts into the storage chamber 218, the vertical extrusion rod 231 squeezes the horizontal extrusion rod 232 downward, and at this time, the horizontal extrusion rod 232 moves inward and extends out of the inner wall of the outer shell 201 to support the moving feed plug 206.

[0047] See attached Figure 3 -Attached Figure 6 A moving frame 227 cooperating with the side discharge chamber 214 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the conversion gear ring 221, and a horizontal nozzle 228 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the moving frame 227; a mounting boss 224 is also arranged on the outer wall of the outer shell 201, and a conversion motor 225 is installed below the mounting boss 224, and a driving gear 226 meshing with the conversion gear ring 221 is installed at the output end of the conversion motor 225.

[0048] In this embodiment, a conversion motor 225 is designed to drive the conversion gear ring 221 to rotate and thus change the printing direction.

[0049] See attached Figure 3 and attached Figure 6 A symmetrical limiting column 207 is arranged on the top of the top cover 202, and the limiting column 207 is a hollow structure. A sliding rod 208 slidably arranged in the limiting column 207 is fixedly arranged on the top of the movable feeding plug 206, and a return spring 209 is sleeved on the sliding rod 208.

[0050] In this embodiment, when the moving material plug 206 reciprocates up and down along the outer shell 201, in order to improve its stability and avoid accidental rotation, a mutually cooperating limit column 207 and slide rod 208 structure is designed. When the printing material is injected into the slurry pipe 203 by an external device, the moving material plug 206 moves downward along the outer shell 201 under the impact. When the external slurry injection device is closed, the moving material plug 206 returns to its original position under the action of the return spring 209.

[0051] See attached Figure 1 , Attachment Fig.11 -Attached Fig.12 A swing plate 306 is movably installed on the top of the lifting arm 305, and a push rod 307 is movably arranged inside the lifting arm 305. A symmetrical limiting arm 308 is arranged on the top of the push rod 307, and the bottom of the push rod 307 extends out of the bottom of the lifting arm 305; a plurality of groups of convex plates 309 are arranged on the outer wall of the lifting arm 305, and a plurality of groups of return springs 310 are connected to the convex plates 309, and the lifting arm 305 is connected to the bottom of the printing table 102 through the return springs 310.

[0052] In this embodiment: when the unloading cylinder 302 moves upward, under the linkage of the lifting swing arm 301, the lifting plate 304 will move obliquely upward and squeeze the lifting arm 305 and the push rod 307. Since the bottom of the push rod 307 extends out of the lifting arm 305, the push rod 307 will lift the swing plate 306 upward and tilt it toward the outer conveyor belt 114. And since the lifting plate 304 moves obliquely upward, the heights of the two sets of lifting arms 305 on the outer side are slightly lower than the two sets of lifting arms 305 on the inner side. When the unloading cylinder 302 moves downward, the lifting plate 304 will move obliquely downward and separate from the lifting arm 305 and the push rod 307, and then return to the original position under the action of the return spring 310.

[0053] See attached Figure 1 A conveyor belt 114 is also provided on the side of the printing table 102 .

[0054] In this embodiment, under the action of the unloading mechanism 3, the printed building components fall onto the conveyor belt 114 and undergo subsequent processing.

[0055] Working principle of the present invention: When the device is in use, when the conversion gear ring 221 rotates clockwise, the driving arc arm 223 squeezes the door plate 216 and retracts it into the storage chamber 1 215. After the driving arc arm 223 is separated from the vertical extrusion rod 231, the horizontal extrusion rod 232 retracts into the linkage groove 230 under the action of the reset spring 235. Therefore, during the printing operation, the bottom of the moving discharge plug 206 completely abuts against the inner wall of the tapered vertical nozzle 205 and blocks the vertical nozzle 205. At this time, the printing material is directly injected into the horizontal nozzle 228 through the horizontal discharge groove 213. When the conversion gear ring 221 rotates counterclockwise, the driving arc arm 223 retracts into the storage chamber 218. At this time, the door plate 216 closes the side discharge chamber 214 under the action of the reset member 217. After the driving arc arm 223 squeezes the vertical squeezing rod 231, the horizontal squeezing rod 232 moves inward along the linkage groove 230 and supports the moving material discharge plug 206. Therefore, during the printing operation, the bottom of the moving material discharge plug 206 cannot completely abut against the inner wall of the vertical nozzle 205, and the inner wall of the outer shell 201 blocks the horizontal discharge slot 213. At this time, the printing material is directly injected into the vertical nozzle 205 through the vertical discharge slot 212. When the printing is completed, the material discharge cylinder 302 is started and moved upward. At this time, under the linkage action of the lifting swing arm 301, the lifting plate 304 will move obliquely upward and squeeze the lifting arm 305 and the push rod 307. Since the bottom of the push rod 307 extends out of the lifting arm 305, the push rod 307 will lift the swing plate 306 upward and tilt it toward the direction of the outer conveyor belt 114. And because the lifting plate 304 moves obliquely upward, the heights of the two outer groups of lifting arms 305 are slightly lower than the two inner groups of lifting arms 305. Under the support of the lifting arms 305 and the swing plate 306, the building components fall onto the conveyor belt 114.
