Description

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of space manufacturing, and specifically relates to a composite material manufacturing equipment for a space environment. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the continuous development of space technology, human exploration of space is increasingly in-depth, and the performance requirements of spacecraft are also increasingly high. Under such a background, composite materials and composite manufacturing technology gradually attract attention due to their unique advantages. Composite materials have excellent properties such as high strength, high stiffness, low density, corrosion resistance, and high temperature resistance, which can meet the use requirements of spacecraft in extreme environments. Composite manufacturing technology can realize the precise manufacturing of complex structural parts and improve the overall performance of spacecraft. Composite manufacturing is an advanced manufacturing technology that integrates multiple processes, tools or energy sources to realize the processing and forming of materials through synchronous work or synergistic effect. This technology significantly improves the flexibility and efficiency of the manufacturing process, and can produce products with complex structures and excellent performance.

[0003] At the same time, as one of the space-oriented composite manufacturing technologies, 3D printing technology can quickly manufacture the required parts and tools according to task requirements, improve the flexibility and autonomy of the task; through space manufacturing, the transportation cost from Earth to space can be reduced, and the total cost of the task can be reduced; and on distant planets such as the Moon and Mars, 3D printing technology can manufacture environment-adapted parts and tools according to actual needs, providing strong support for the smooth progress of the task.

[0004] Some space-oriented composite material manufacturing equipment today lays the 3D printing raw materials on the printing area through the airflow and then performs 3D printing through the laser layer-by-layer solidification method. When the airflow contacts the printing substrate, a certain degree of turbulence is generated. Due to the microgravity environment of the printing environment, these turbulent flows have a great impact on the uniformity of the raw materials laid on the substrate. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a space-oriented composite material manufacturing equipment that can uniformly and stably lay the printing raw materials on the printing substrate to improve the printing precision.

[0040] ​​​The photoetching assembly comprises a first mechanical arm 7 and a laser emitter 6; the first mechanical arm 7 is screw-connected with the laser emitter 6; the first mechanical arm 7 and the laser emitter 6 are electrically connected with a controller; the controller controls the laser emitter 6 in a pulse mode.

[0041] The adsorption assembly comprises a second mechanical arm 2 and a negative pressure machine; the negative pressure machine is communicated with a suction pipe at an input end; the second mechanical arm 2 is screw-connected with the suction pipe at a bottom; the negative pressure machine is communicated with a recovery assembly at an output end; the second mechanical arm 2 and the negative pressure machine are electrically connected with a controller.

[0042] The discharging assembly comprises a moving block 4 and a plurality of servo motors; the servo motors are located inside the moving block 4; the moving block 4 is provided with a plurality of sliding grooves corresponding to the sliding rails 5 at two sides in a length direction; a plurality of driven wheels 17 and a plurality of drive wheels 16 driven by the servo motors are respectively rotationally connected to a top and a bottom of the sliding grooves; the servo motors are electrically connected with a controller; the moving block 4 is provided with a recess at a bottom; a second telescopic rod 18 is screw-fixedly connected to a top wall of the recess; a discharging plate 19 is screw-fixedly connected to a lower end of the second telescopic rod 18; a plurality of second electromagnets 20 are uniformly arranged inside the discharging plate 19; the second electromagnets 20 are electrically connected with the controller.

[0043] The recovery assembly comprises a reversing valve 23 communicated with the negative pressure machine at an output end; a plurality of recovery tanks 21 are communicated with the reversing valve 23; a second magnetic attraction layer 22 is arranged on an inner wall of each of the recovery tanks 21; the second magnetic attraction layer 22 is electrically connected with the controller.

[0044] The specific implementation process is as follows. First, a powder raw material to be subjected to 3D printing is placed in a corresponding storage tank 13; due to the microgravity environment, the powder raw material is not constrained and will float in the storage tank 13; and slight air flow will make the powder spread and escape from the storage tank 13; even the scattered magnetic powder will affect the normal operation of other components; and due to the movement of the moving block 4 and the discharging plate 19 during the work process, the air above the storage tank 13 will flow greatly, which will also drive the air flow above the storage tank 13 to make the printing powder raw material escape; thus, the magnetic powder raw material is adsorbed and accumulated in the storage tank 13 by the first magnetic attraction layer 15, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the magnetic powder 3D printing and the stability of the device.

[0045] Then the controller controls the servo motor to rotate, so that the driving wheel 16 and the driven wheel 17 slide along the slide rail 5, and then the moving block 4 moves to the top of the storage tank 13. Then the controller controls the second telescopic rod 18 to move, so that the discharge plate 19 lightly presses the magnetic powder, ensuring that the top of the accumulated powder is parallel to the bottom end of the discharge plate 19, so that the subsequent adsorption can uniformly adsorb the magnetic powder at the bottom end of the discharge plate 19. Then the discharge plate 19 is lifted to be spaced apart from the top of the accumulated powder by 1-2 cm, and then the second electromagnet 20 is started, and the magnetic force of the second electromagnet 20 and the first magnetic layer 15 is controlled by the controller to ensure that the discharge plate 19 can uniformly adsorb 10-30 microns of magnetic powder.

[0046] After the raw material adsorption is completed, the controller controls the servo motor to move the moving block 4 to the top of the workbench 10, and then moves the discharge plate 19 to be spaced apart from the workbench 10 or the top of the dust pile by 1-2 cm through the second telescopic rod 18, and moves the workbench 10 through the first telescopic rod 12 to control the controller, so that the discharge plate 19 discharges each time in the printing slot 9, thereby improving the uniformity of the dust laying; then the first magnetic layer 15 is closed, and the pulse parameters (frequency, amplitude, width) of the first electromagnet 11 are adjusted to make the magnetic force of the first electromagnet 11 increase instantaneously, so that the magnetic powder on the discharge plate 19 is quickly and uniformly adsorbed on the surface of the workbench 10, thereby improving the accuracy of subsequent printing. In the process of printing layer by layer, the controller also controls the magnetic force of the first electromagnet 11 to gradually increase, so as to ensure that the magnetic attraction of the first electromagnet 11 to the top of the accumulated powder in the printing slot 9 is always greater than that of the first magnetic layer 15, thereby ensuring that the top of the accumulated magnetic powder in the printing slot 9 does not shift during printing, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the final product.

[0047] After the magnetic powder is uniformly and stably laid on the workbench 10, the first mechanical arm 7 is controlled to move by the controller based on the preset 3D printing model data, so as to adjust the pose of the first mechanical arm 7 hand laser emitter 6, and the laser emitter 6 is pulsed controlled by the controller, so as to ensure that the laser emitter 6 can quickly and accurately irradiate and solidify or sinter the corresponding area, thereby reducing material waste.

[0048] When different materials are needed to be used to composite print the printing member, the magnetic powder raw materials or the raw material powders subjected to magnetization treatment are respectively put into the corresponding storage grooves 13, and the powders are accumulated in the storage grooves 13 by the first magnetic attraction layer 15, and the accumulated powders are flattened one by one by the discharging plate 19 to ensure that the powders can be uniformly adsorbed subsequently. Since the excess materials after printing need to be recycled, when multiple materials are printed, the previous printing material needs to be cleaned and recycled, and then the subsequent powder material is added to ensure that the different materials are mixed to facilitate subsequent use. Therefore, after the printing of one material is completed, the controller controls the movement of the second mechanical arm 2 to move the suction pipe of the second mechanical arm 2 hand to the printing groove 9, and starts the negative pressure machine to suck the powders in the printing groove 9. Since the negative pressure machine is in communication with the recovery tank 21, the sucked powders will enter the corresponding recovery tank 21, and the powders are limited in the recovery tank 21 by the second magnetic attraction layer 22. Then the magnetic force of the second electromagnet 20 in the discharging plate 19 is increased to increase the amount of the next powder material adsorbed by the discharging plate 19, and then the discharging plate 19 quickly fills the next powder into the printing groove 9 until the accumulated powders are parallel to the last plane of the previous material printing, and then the subsequent printing is started to complete the composite 3D printing of multiple materials.

[0049] At the same time, when multiple materials are printed, in order to avoid that the different materials are mixed after being cleaned and recycled, the controller controls the reversing valve 23 to connect the negative pressure machine and the corresponding recovery tank 21 to avoid the mixing of different materials during recycling. Embodiment 2

[0050] The difference from the above embodiment is that, as shown in the accompanying drawings, the length and width of the discharging plate 19, the working plate 10 and the storage plate 14 are all equal. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The length and width of the discharging plate 19, the working plate 10 and the storage plate 14 are all equal.

[0051] The specific implementation process is as follows: since the length and width of the discharging plate 19 and the storage plate 14 are all equal, and when the discharging plate 19 moves to the position directly above the storage plate 14 and coincides with the storage plate 14, the discharging plate 19 can uniformly adsorb the magnetic powder raw materials in the storage groove 13 on the bottom of the discharging plate 19, and then moves to the position directly above the working plate 10 and coincides with the working plate 10 to discharge, thereby ensuring that the powders are uniformly laid on the working plate 10 to ensure the printing accuracy; at the same time, it can also avoid that part of the powders are adsorbed through the gap between the discharging plate 19 and the storage groove 13 around the height direction of the discharging plate 19, thereby reducing the possibility of affecting the uniformity of the powders laid in the printing groove 9 subsequently. Embodiment 3

[0052] The difference from the above embodiment is that, as shown in the accompanying drawings, the length and width of the discharging plate 19, the working plate 10 and the storage plate 14 are all equal. Figure 2As shown: the diameter of the end of the suction pipe close to the second mechanical arm 2 is larger than the diameter of the end of the suction pipe close to the negative pressure machine.

[0053] The specific implementation process is as follows: since the structure of some printing components is relatively complex, the powder in some areas is not convenient to clean when the powder is cleaned and recycled, so the diameter of the end of the suction pipe close to the second mechanical arm 2 is larger than the diameter of the end of the suction pipe close to the negative pressure machine, which can ensure that the powder can be adsorbed, and the dust in some narrow areas can also be adsorbed and recycled.

[0054] The technical means disclosed in the scheme of the application are not limited to the technical means disclosed in the above-mentioned embodiments, and also include technical solutions composed of any combination of the above technical features.
