Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of 3D printing, and more specifically to a leveling device for a 3D printer base. Background Technology
[0002] 3D printing is a rapid prototyping technology that has been used more and more widely in recent years, especially in the molding of irregular objects.
[0003] Because 3D printed products vary in shape and size, and symmetrical items are rare, uneven stress on the top surface of the printing base can lead to tilting of the printing base, requiring reprinting and severely impacting the printing progress. Even slight tilting can affect print quality. Furthermore, when the printed product is removed from the printing base, some material may remain on its surface, which, if not cleaned promptly, can affect subsequent printing operations. To improve the efficiency and product quality of 3D printing, we propose a leveling device for 3D printer bases. Summary of the Invention

The inner surface of the multi-concave connecting plate is fixedly connected to the force-bearing rod.
[0014] The present invention has the following beneficial effects.
[0015] This invention utilizes a square frame. When the operator activates the hydraulic press, the square block moves upward under its push. The square plate, propelled by the connecting block and the cross-shaped top plate, gradually rises to a height suitable for operation. An arc-shaped frame confines the arc-shaped plate fixed to the bottom of the square plate to its inner side, thus limiting the position of the square plate and preventing wobbling during 3D printing that could affect product quality. It also eliminates the problem of the square plate tilting to one side due to gravity. The special shape of the cross-shaped top plate, with its large contact area with the square plate, effectively supports the weight of the square plate, significantly increasing its strength.
[0016] This invention utilizes a square block. The support rod, pulled by the connecting plate, causes the T-shaped rod to move upwards. At this point, the four corners of the square block's bottom are simultaneously supported by the forces of the semi-circular and fan-shaped plates, thus providing support to the four corners of the square block. Furthermore, since the semi-circular and fan-shaped plates are engaged within the arc-shaped groove, the problem of the square block tilting is further prevented. The elastic plate, due to its inherent elasticity, supports the circular block. However, because its elasticity is limited, when the square block is placed on top of the semi-circular plate, the elastic plate is under compression, achieving its supporting function. As the support rod gradually rises, the slider, influenced by gravity, causes the arc-shaped rod to move downwards along the opening. At this point, the increased force on the outer end of the support rod lowers the overall center of gravity, making the support for the square block more stable. Finally, through the diagonal rod, when the hydraulic device moves the square block to its lowest height, the lower end of the diagonal rod contacts the top of the base plate, thereby distributing and supporting the force on the arc-shaped rod.
[0017] This invention uses a fixing block, allowing the operator to directly remove the printed object along with the square plate after printing, and then replace it with a square plate without the printed object to continue working. This reduces the problem of material adhering to the top of the square plate when the printed object is detached. After the operator starts the cylinder, the trapezoidal block moves forward continuously under the push of the pneumatic rod. Then, the lower front end of the push plate contacts the top of the square plate, and the impurities remaining on the top of the square plate are removed by the push plate. When the push plate encounters more stubborn impurities, the push plate will transmit the reaction force received to the spring through the triangular block. The spring will be compressed after being stressed. When the spring is compressed to a certain extent, the spring will rebound and give the push plate the pushing force to remove the impurities. The force rod can limit the position of the push plate, and also indirectly allow the spring to apply most of the force to the push plate located in front when it expands, thus improving the cleaning effect of residues.
[0018] This invention utilizes a trapezoidal block. Due to its unique shape, the trapezoidal block can perform secondary cleaning of residues on top of the push plate, avoiding incomplete cleaning. The vertical rod increases the connection between the pneumatic push rod and the trapezoidal block, improving the fixing effect. The multi-concave connecting plate connects two pneumatic push rods together, keeping them on the same horizontal plane and preventing the trapezoidal block from tilting due to different forces during pushing. The fixing block stores the push plate when not in use, ensuring it does not interfere with 3D printing. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The embodiments of the present invention are given for illustrative and descriptive purposes only, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the forms disclosed. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The embodiments were chosen and described to better illustrate the principles and practical application of the invention, and to enable those skilled in the art to understand the invention and design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for a particular purpose.
[0031] Example 1
[0032] Please see Figures 1-6 This invention relates to a leveling device for a 3D printer base, comprising:
[0033] The substrate 1 has arc-shaped grooves at the four corners of its bottom. The top of the substrate 1 is in contact with a square frame 2, and the top of the square frame 2 has a right-angle groove. A limiting plate 3 is fixedly connected inside the right-angle groove, and the limiting plate 3 is right-angled. The inner and outer surfaces of the limiting plate 3 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the right-angle groove. A square plate 4 is provided on the top of the substrate 1, and a fixing block 5 is provided on the upper back of the substrate 1.
[0034] The square frame 2 includes a cross-shaped base plate 21, a hydraulic actuator 22, a cylindrical rod 23, a square block 24, a connecting block 25, a cross-shaped top plate 26, and an arc-shaped frame 27. The cross-shaped base plate 21 is located on the top of the base plate 1 and is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the square frame 2. The hydraulic actuator 22 is fixedly installed on the top of the cross-shaped base plate 21. The cylindrical rod 23 is located on the outside of the hydraulic actuator 22, and its bottom is fixedly connected to the top of the cross-shaped base plate 21. The square block 24 is fixedly connected to the top of the output end of the hydraulic actuator 22. The connecting block 25 is fixedly installed on the top of the square block 24, and the shape of the connecting block 25 is... The cross-shaped top plate 26 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the outer surface of the connecting block 25. Due to the special shape of the cross-shaped top plate 26, it has a large contact area with the square plate 4, which can support the gravity of the square plate 4 and greatly increase the strength of the square plate 4. The arc frame 27 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the cross-shaped top plate 26. After the operator starts the hydraulic device 22 through the square frame 2, the square block 24 will move upward under its push. The square plate 4 will gradually rise to a height that is convenient for working under the push of the connecting block 25 and the cross-shaped top plate 26.
[0035] The bottom of the substrate 1 is in contact with the top of the cross-shaped top plate 26, and an arc-shaped plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the substrate 1. The outer surface of the arc-shaped plate is in contact with the inner surface of the arc-shaped frame 27. Through the arc-shaped frame 27, the arc-shaped frame 27 can restrict the arc-shaped plate fixed to the bottom of the square plate 4 to its inner side, thereby limiting the position of the square plate 4 and preventing it from shaking during 3D printing, which would affect the product quality. At the same time, it also prevents the square plate 4 from tilting to one side due to gravity.
[0036] A connecting plate 241 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of a square block 24. Right-angle rods 242 are fixedly connected to the upper and lower sides of the square block 24, and the right-angle rods 242 are connected to the connecting plate 241. A rotating rod is horizontally arranged on the outer side of the square block 24, and the left and right ends of the rotating rod are fixedly connected to the side of the connecting plate 241. A support rod 243 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating rod. An opening is opened at the central axis of the support rod 243, and a slider 244 is arranged at the central axis of the opening. The slider 244 is cylindrical. Arc-shaped rods 245 are arranged on the left and right sides of the support rod 243, and the lower ends of the arc-shaped rods 245 are fixed. A connecting plate 246 is installed, and the arc-shaped rod 245 is fixedly connected to the square frame 2 through the connecting plate 246. A diagonal rod 247 is set directly below the support rod 243. Through the square block 24, the support rod 243 will drive the T-shaped round rod 312 to move upward under the traction of the connecting plate 241. At this time, the four bottom corners of the square plate 4 will be simultaneously subjected to the forces of the semi-circular plate 32 and the fan-shaped plate 33, which can support the four bottom corners of the square plate 4 respectively. At the same time, since the semi-circular plate 32 and the fan-shaped plate 33 are stuck inside the arc groove, the problem of the square plate 4 tilting is further prevented.
[0037] The left and right sides of the inclined rod 247 are fixedly connected to the sides of the arc rod 245, and the bottom of the inclined rod 247 is in contact with the top of the base plate 1. When the hydraulic device 22 drives the square plate 4 to move to the lowest height, the lower end of the inclined rod 247 will contact the top of the base plate 1, thereby distributing and supporting the force on the arc rod 245.
[0038] The slider 244 is cylindrical in shape, and its outer surface is in contact with the inner wall of the opening. The top of the arc rod 245 has a circular opening, and the inner surface of the circular opening is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the slider 244. The bottom of the connecting plate 246 is in contact with the top of the base plate 1. As the support rod 243 gradually rises, the slider 244 will be affected by gravity and drive the arc rod 245 to move downward along the opening. At this time, the force on the outer end of the support rod 243 increases, causing the overall center of gravity to shift downward, which will make the support of the square plate 4 more stable.
[0039] The limiting plate 3 includes a circular block 31, a semi-circular plate 32 and a sector plate 33. The semi-circular plate 32 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the outer surface of the circular block 31, and the sector plate 33 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the semi-circular plate 32. The outer surface of the sector plate 33 is in contact with the inner surface of the arc groove.
[0040] The side of the semicircular plate 32 away from the fan-shaped plate 33 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the limiting plate 3, and the top of the semicircular plate 32 is in contact with the top of the inner wall of the arc groove.
[0041] The circular block 31 includes a sliding plate 311, a T-shaped rod 312, an annular block 313, an elastic plate 314, and a rotating rod 315. The top of the circular block 31 has a cylindrical groove, and the bottom of the sliding plate 311 is in contact with the bottom of the inner wall of the cylindrical groove. The T-shaped rod 312 is located directly below the circular block 31, and the top of the T-shaped rod 312 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding plate 311. The annular block 313 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the lower end of the T-shaped rod 312. The elastic plate 314 is fixedly connected to the top of the annular block 313, and the top of the elastic plate 314 is connected to the bottom of the circular block 31. The bottom of the T-shaped rod 312 has a notch, and the rotating rod 315 is fixedly connected inside the notch. Through the elastic plate 314, due to its own elasticity, it can support the circular block 31. However, due to its limited elasticity, when the square plate 4 is placed on top of the semi-circular plate 32, the elastic plate 314 will be under compression, thus achieving the function of force support.
[0042] The support rod 243 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating rod 315. The sliding plate 311 is circular in shape, and the outer surface of the sliding plate 311 is in contact with the inner wall of the cylindrical groove.
[0043] Example 2
[0044] Distinguishing features from Example 1;
[0045] Please see Figures 7-10 This invention relates to a leveling device for a 3D printer base, comprising:
[0046] The fixing block 5 includes a support plate 51, a horizontal plate 52, a straight rod 53, and a cylinder 54. The support plate 51 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing block 5, and the horizontal plate 52 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 51. The horizontal plate 52 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1 through the straight rod 53. The cylinder 54 is located on the back of the fixing block 5, and the bottom of the cylinder 54 is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 51. With the fixing block 5, after printing is completed, the operator can directly remove the printed object along with the square plate 4, and then replace it with a square plate 4 that does not support the printed object to work again, which reduces the problem of material adhering to the top of the square plate 4 when the printed object is separated from it.
[0047] The fixing block 5 has an opening 2 on its front side. The bottom height of the inner wall of the opening 2 is the same as the top height of the square plate 4. When not in use, the push plate 532 can be stored inside the fixing block 5 so that it will not affect the 3D printing work.
[0048] The fixed block 5 includes a trapezoidal block 531, a push plate 532, a triangular block 533 and a force rod 534. The trapezoidal block 531 is slidably connected inside the second opening, and a groove is provided at the central axis of the front of the trapezoidal block 531. The push plate 532 is set on the front of the trapezoidal block 531, and the triangular block 533 and the force rod 534 are fixedly connected to the back of the push plate 532.
[0049] The push plate 532 contacts the inner wall of the opening on all four sides. After the operator starts the cylinder 54, the trapezoidal block 531 moves forward continuously under the push of the pneumatic rod 72. Then the lower front end of the push plate 532 contacts the top of the square plate 4. The impurities remaining on the top of the square plate 4 will be removed by the push plate 532. When the push plate 532 encounters more stubborn impurities, the push plate 532 will transmit the reaction force it receives to the spring through the triangular block 533. The spring will be compressed after being stressed. When the spring is compressed to a certain extent, the spring will rebound and give the push plate 532 the pushing force to remove the impurities.
[0050] A spring is fixedly connected to the side of the triangular block 533 away from the push plate 532, and the end of the spring away from the triangular block 533 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove. The end of the force rod 534 away from the push plate 532 passes through the trapezoidal block 531 and extends into the interior. Through the force rod 534, the position of the push plate 532 is limited, and the spring can also apply most of the force to the push plate 532 located in front when it expands, thus improving the cleaning effect of residue.
[0051] The upper and lower sides of the force-bearing rod 534 are in contact with the inner wall of the groove.
[0052] The trapezoidal block 531 includes a connecting frame 71, a pneumatic push rod 72, a fixing rod 73, a vertical rod 74, and a multi-concave connecting plate 75. The connecting frame 71 is located on the back of the trapezoidal block 531, and has round openings on the left and right sides. The outer surface of the pneumatic push rod 72 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the round opening. The connecting frame 71 is connected to the trapezoidal block 531 through the fixing rod 73. A platform block is fixedly connected to the front of the pneumatic push rod 72, and the vertical rod 74 is fixedly connected to the upper and lower sides of the platform block. The inner surface of the multi-concave connecting plate 75 is fixedly connected to the force-bearing rod 534. Through the multi-concave connecting plate 75, two pneumatic push rods 72 can be connected together to make them on the same horizontal plane, avoiding the problem of the trapezoidal block 531 tilting due to different forces when it is pushed. Through the trapezoidal block 531, due to its special shape, it can perform secondary cleaning of residues on the basis of the push plate 532, avoiding the problem of incomplete cleaning.
[0053] The connecting frame 71 is connected to the cylinder 54 via the pneumatic push rod 72. The end of the vertical rod 74 away from the platform block is fixedly connected to the trapezoidal block 531. The vertical rod 74 can increase the connection between the pneumatic push rod 72 and the trapezoidal block 531 and improve the fixing effect with the trapezoidal block 531.
[0054] A specific application of this embodiment is as follows: After the operator starts the hydraulic device 22, the square block 24 will move upward under its push. The square plate 4 will gradually rise to a height that is convenient for working under the push of the connecting block 25 and the cross top plate 26. Through the arc frame 27, the arc plate fixed at the bottom of the square plate 4 can be restricted to its inner side, thereby limiting the position of the square plate 4 and avoiding shaking during 3D printing, which would affect the product quality. At the same time, it prevents the square plate 4 from tilting to one side due to gravity. Relying on the special shape setting of the cross top plate 26, due to the large contact area between itself and the square plate 4, it can support the gravity of the square plate 4, greatly increasing the strength of the square plate 4.
[0055] Under the traction of the connecting plate 241, the support rod 243 will drive the T-shaped round rod 312 to move upward. At this time, the four corners of the bottom of the square plate 4 will be simultaneously subjected to the forces of the semi-circular plate 32 and the fan-shaped plate 33, which can support the four corners of the bottom of the square plate 4 respectively. At the same time, since the semi-circular plate 32 and the fan-shaped plate 33 are stuck inside the arc groove, the problem of the square plate 4 tilting is further eliminated. Through the elastic plate 314, due to its own elasticity, it can support the round block 31. However, due to its limited elasticity, when the square plate 4 is placed on top of the semi-circular plate 32, the elastic plate 314 will be under compression, achieving the function of force support. As the support rod 243 gradually rises, the slider 244 will be affected by gravity and drive the arc rod 245 to move downward along the opening. At this time, the force intensity of the outer end of the support rod 243 increases, causing the overall center of gravity to shift downward, making the support of the square plate 4 more stable.
[0056] After printing is complete, the operator can directly remove the printed object along with the square plate 4, and then replace it with a square plate 4 without the printed object to continue working. This reduces the problem of material adhering to the top of the square plate 4 when the printed object is separated from it. After the operator starts the cylinder 54, the trapezoidal block 531 moves forward continuously under the push of the pneumatic rod 72. Then the lower front end of the push plate 532 will contact the top of the square plate 4, and the impurities remaining on the top of the square plate 4 will be removed by the push plate 532. When the push plate 532 encounters more stubborn impurities, the push plate 532 will transmit the reaction force it receives to the spring through the triangular block 533. The spring will be compressed after being stressed. When the spring is compressed to a certain extent, the spring will rebound and give the push plate 532 the pushing force to remove the impurities.
