Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of 3D printing technology, specifically relating to a cleaning and drying device for photopolymer 3D printed models and its operating method. Background Technology

[0002] When printing models, due to the nature of the process, photopolymer 3D printers often leave some uncured resin residue on the model surface. Post-processing is necessary for proper use, including cleaning and drying. Cleaning uses a specific solution to dissolve and remove residual resin from the model surface. Drying uses a fan, air gun, or other methods to quickly remove the remaining solution. Only through cleaning and drying can the performance of the subsequently cured model be improved, less prone to cracking, have an extended shelf life, and ensure its quality and stability. Currently, the machines on the market can be categorized by function as follows:

[0003] 1. Machines with only cleaning function. When using this machine, the user needs to immerse the model in the cleaning container. The machine uses a rotating impeller, shaking the container, or ultrasonic waves to dissolve the residual resin on the model's surface, thus completing the cleaning process.

[0004] 2. Device with only drying function. When using it, the user needs to place the cleaned model at the air outlet of the air outlet device, and use the rapid airflow to remove the specific solution remaining on the surface of the model, thereby completing the drying process.

[0005] 3. An all-in-one machine with cleaning and other functions. Users need to place the model into the internal container of the machine, and the surface of the model will be rinsed by rotating sprayers to complete the cleaning process.

[0006] After in-depth analysis of the above three types of machines or devices, the following drawbacks are identified:

[0007] 1. Machines with only cleaning function:

[0008] 1. Cumbersome operation: After cleaning, there is still a lot of residual specific solution on the surface of the model when transferring it to the drying device. The device needs to catch the liquid dripping from the model, and the device needs to be cleaned afterward. The operation efficiency is low, which increases the complexity of operation and labor and time costs.

[0009] 2. Impeller Rotation Mode: The impeller at the bottom of the container rotates, causing the cleaning liquid inside the container to rotate and flow. Due to the limitations of its working principle, the design space of the cleaning container is insufficient, and it is only suitable for cleaning small and medium-sized models, and cannot meet the cleaning needs of large models.

[0010] 3. Shaking Container Mode: By shaking the entire container, the internal liquid and model move together; this mode is only suitable for small and medium-sized models. For large models, significant adjustments to the power source and overall size are required, greatly increasing costs. Furthermore, the erratic movement of the model may damage its structure, especially its delicate and intricate structures, potentially causing irreparable damage.

[0011] 4. Ultrasonic mode: Ultrasonic waves are emitted by an ultrasonic generator, which generate high-frequency vibrations upon contact with the liquid to achieve the cleaning purpose; it is only suitable for small and medium-sized models. For large models, significant adjustments need to be made to the power and overall size of the machine, which greatly increases the cost.

[0012] Devices with only drying function:

[0013] 1. The model that needs to be pre-treated needs to be transferred to the drying device, which results in low work efficiency;

[0014] 2. Single wind direction, requires manual change of wind direction to complete the drying process of the model from multiple angles and directions.

[0015] All-in-one machine with cleaning and other functions

[0016] 1. It has a cleaning function but no drying function, which makes the post-processing of the model defective. The model may have problems such as incomplete cleaning and whitening of the surface after curing.

[0017] 2. Rotary spray cleaning mode: Whether the model is fixed and the spray arm rotates or the model rotates and the nozzle is fixed, the water trajectory is fixed. Therefore, it cannot completely cover all the detailed areas of the model surface, resulting in incomplete cleaning in some areas. Especially for complex multi-support models, the probability of cleaning the inside is greatly reduced. At the same time, the cleaning ability for hollow models is also limited.

[0074] Economic mode: The controller controls the rotation of the rotating device, and controls the liquid inlet device and liquid inlet control device to input the cleaning liquid in the external barrel assembly into the working barrel through the liquid spraying device.

After cleaning, the liquid outlet device and liquid outlet control device control the liquid outlet device to recover the cleaning liquid in the working barrel into the external barrel assembly, and controls the blower device to dry the printed model.

[0075] Cleaning mode only: The controller controls the rotation of the rotating device, and controls the liquid inlet device and liquid inlet control device to input the cleaning liquid in the external barrel assembly into the working barrel through the spray device to soak or spray the model for cleaning. After cleaning, the liquid outlet device and liquid outlet control device control the cleaning liquid in the working barrel to be recycled back into the external barrel assembly.

[0076] Drying mode only: The controller controls the rotation of the rotating device, which in turn controls the air blowing device to dry the printed model;

[0077] Engineering mode: Test the working status of the liquid inlet device, liquid outlet device, liquid inlet control device, and liquid outlet control device through the controller.

[0078] The specific application scenarios for the above operating methods are as follows:

[0079] 1. Before using the device, please make the following pipe connections:

[0080] 1.1: One end of the first external pipe fitting 1-14 is connected to the first filter chamber 1-13, and the other end is inserted into the first external barrel 1-15, ensuring that the pipe end touches the bottom of the barrel;

[0081] 1.2: One end of the second external pipe fitting 1-10 is connected to the second filter chamber 1-12, and the other end is inserted into the second external barrel 1-11, ensuring that the pipe end touches the bottom of the barrel.

[0082] 2. Standard Mode: With the device powered on, click the mode option on the touch display panel 1-1 and select standard mode.

[0083] 2.1: In standard mode, click the bucket quantity option on the touch display panel 1-1, select quantity 1, and click the start button. The reduction motor 1-29 starts, and the drive wheel 1-35 is fixed on the shaft of the reduction motor 1-29. The gear disk 1-5 meshing with the drive wheel 1-35 rotates, driving the model placed on the gear disk 1-5 to rotate. At the same time, the first liquid inlet solenoid valve 1-20 opens, and the liquid inlet pump 1-22 works. The cleaning liquid in the first external bucket 1-15 passes through the first external pipe fitting 1-14, the first filter chamber 1-13, the first liquid inlet solenoid valve 1-20, and the liquid inlet pump 1-22 in sequence, and is finally sprayed out through the nozzle 1-28 and stored in the working bucket 1-34. Liquid continues to be added until the upper liquid level sensor 1-6 senses the liquid level, at which point the liquid inlet pump 1-22 stops working, the first liquid inlet solenoid valve 1-20 closes, and the model begins full immersion. After full immersion, the first discharge solenoid valve 1-18 opens, and the discharge pump 1-21 operates. The cleaning liquid in the working tank 1-34 passes sequentially through the discharge pump 1-21, the first discharge solenoid valve 1-18, the first filter chamber 1-13, and the first external pipe fitting 1-14, and is collected back into the first external tank 1-15 until the lower liquid level sensor 1-25 no longer detects the liquid level. At this point, the discharge pump 1-21 stops operating, and the first discharge solenoid valve 1-18 closes. Next, the high-speed fan 1-7 starts operating, drying the liquid on the model surface until the set time ends. The high-speed fan 1-7 then stops. If the photoelectric sensor 1-4 detects a signal, the reduction motor 1-29 stops. If no signal is detected, a 20-second countdown begins after the high-speed fan 1-7 stops, the reduction motor 1-29 stops, E-52 is displayed on the touch display panel 1-1, and a buzzer alarm sounds, indicating the end of the standard mode.

[0084] 2.2: In standard mode, click the "Number of Buckets" option on the touch display panel 1-1, select "Number 2," and click the "Start" button. The reduction motor 1-29 starts, and the drive wheel 1-35 is fixed on the shaft of the reduction motor 1-29. The gear disk 1-5, which meshes with the drive wheel 1-35, rotates, causing the model placed on the gear disk 1-5 to rotate. Simultaneously, the first inlet solenoid valve 1-20 opens, and the inlet pump 1-22 operates. The cleaning liquid in the first external bucket 1-15 passes sequentially through the first external pipe fitting 1-14, the first filter chamber 1-13, the first inlet solenoid valve 1-20, and the inlet pump 1-22, finally being sprayed out through the nozzle 1-28 and stored in the working bucket 1-34. Liquid continues to be added until the upper liquid level sensor 1-6 detects the liquid level. At this point, the inlet pump 1-22 stops operating, the first inlet solenoid valve 1-20 closes, and the model begins its first rough wash and full immersion. After full immersion, the first discharge solenoid valve 1-18 opens, and the discharge pump 1-21 operates. The cleaning liquid in the working tank 1-34 passes sequentially through the discharge pump 1-21, the first discharge solenoid valve 1-18, the first filter chamber 1-13, and the first external pipe fitting 1-14, and is collected back into the first external tank 1-15. This continues until the lower liquid level sensor 1-25 no longer detects a liquid level, at which point the discharge pump 1-21 stops operating, the first discharge solenoid valve 1-18 closes, and one coarse wash is completed. Next, the second inlet solenoid valve 1-19 opens, and the inlet pump 1-22 operates. The cleaning liquid in the second external tank 1-11 passes sequentially through the second external pipe fitting 1-10, the second filter chamber 1-12, the second inlet solenoid valve 1-19, and the inlet pump 1-22, and is finally sprayed out through the nozzle 1-28 and stored in the working tank 1-34. Liquid continues to be supplied until the middle liquid level sensor 1-16 detects the liquid level. At this point, the inlet pump 1-22 stops working, the second inlet solenoid valve 1-19 closes, and the model begins a secondary fine wash cycle spray. During this time, the outlet pump 1-21 operates, and the circulation inlet solenoid valve 1-24 opens. The cleaning liquid in the working tank 1-34 passes sequentially through the outlet pump 1-21, the circulation inlet solenoid valve 1-24, and the nozzle 1-28, returning to the working tank 1-34. After the cycle spray ends, the second outlet solenoid valve 1-17 opens, and the outlet pump 1-21 operates. The cleaning liquid in the working tank 1-34 passes sequentially through the outlet pump 1-21, the second outlet solenoid valve 1-17, the second filter chamber 1-12, and the second external pipe fitting 1-10, returning to the second external tank 1-11. This continues until the lower liquid level sensor 1-25 no longer detects the liquid level, at which point the outlet pump 1-21 stops working, the second outlet solenoid valve 1-17 closes, and the secondary fine wash ends. Next, high-speed fans 1-7 start working, drying the liquid on the model surface until the set time ends. High-speed fans 1-7 then stop. If photoelectric sensor 1-4 detects a signal, geared motor 1-29 stops. If no signal is detected, a countdown of 20 seconds begins after high-speed fans 1-7 stop. Geared motor 1-29 then stops, touch display panel 1-1 displays E-52, a buzzer alarm sounds, and the standard mode ends.

[0085] 3. Deep Cleaning Mode: With the device powered on, click the mode option on the touch display panel 1-1 and select the deep cleaning mode.

[0086] 3-1: In deep cleaning mode, click the bucket quantity option on the touch display panel 1-1, select quantity 1, and click the start button. The reduction motor 1-29 starts, and the drive wheel 1-35 is fixed on the shaft of the reduction motor 1-29.
