AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In laser additive manufacturing, metal or non-metal powders are prone to agglomeration due to environmental humidity or static electricity, resulting in clumping in the storage box, clogging the feed port, or causing uneven powder spreading. Existing stirring mechanisms cannot completely disperse the agglomerated particles, affecting the density and mechanical properties of the molded components.

Method used

The system employs a coordinated anti-caking mechanism that combines a stirring shaft and a lateral movement of the storage box. A motor drives a quantitative spreading roller, and a belt drive rotates the stirring shaft. This, along with the main drive shaft, convex rod, and annular corrugated groove, achieves rotational stirring and lateral swaying. Combined with the synchronous movement of the storage box, this ensures powder dispersion. The quantitative spreading roller, by switching between forward and reverse rotation, docks with the cavity of the storage box for precise material handling. Furthermore, multi-level contact blocks and elastic locking mechanisms enable dynamic adjustment of the scraper height, ensuring uniform powder distribution in each layer.

Benefits of technology

It effectively prevents powder agglomeration, achieves powder dispersion and quantitative laying, avoids clogging, improves the density and mechanical properties of molded components, adapts to the continuous production needs of multi-material gradient components, and ensures the dimensional accuracy and interlayer bonding strength of multi-layer components.

Description

The inner wall of the two groups of storage cavities on the two sides of the storage box 403 is rotatably connected with an agitator shaft 404, the rotation center shaft of the two groups of agitator shafts 404 is fixedly connected with a belt pulley a405, when the two groups of belt pulleys a405 rotate, the agitator shaft 404 rotates in the inner side of the storage cavity of the storage box 403, so as to scatter the powder and avoid wet condensation, which affects the final laser additive manufacturing.

[0027] As Figure 6As shown, the layer-by-layer lifting scraping mechanism 5 comprises a plurality of contact blocks 501, which are provided with four groups and are fixed at the four corners of the electric guide rail 1 in a mirror image distribution, and are composed of a group of rod bodies and four groups of triangles, and the gap between each triangle is matched with the rear end of the connecting frame 502, and the thickness of the four groups of triangles is matched with the triangular block 505. The inner wall of the bottom end of the moving seat 3 penetrates and is slidingly connected with the connecting frame 502. The inner wall of the bottom end of the moving seat 3 is provided with a guide groove, so that the connecting frame 502 can only move up and down linearly in the inner wall of the guide groove at the bottom end of the moving seat 3. One end of the reset spring 504 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the scraper 503, and the other end of the reset spring 504 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the triangular block 505. The reset spring 504 is used to reset the position of the triangular block 505 after being extruded by the inner side clamping groove of the moving seat 3. The two sides of the connecting frame 502 are fixedly connected with the scraper 503. By arranging the scraper 503 on both sides of the connecting frame 502, when the electric guide rail 1 drives the guide seat 2 and the moving seat 3 to move as a whole to wipe the powder on the surface of the processing table, the powder laid out can be scraped flat whether the powder is wiped left or right.

[0028] The inner side wall of the scraper 503 is elastically connected with a plurality of triangular blocks 505 through the return spring 504. The triangular blocks 505 are slidingly connected to the inner side wall of the scraper 503. The inner side wall of the bottom end of the moving seat 3 is provided with a clamping groove. The outer wall of the triangular block 505 is clamped with the inner wall of the clamping groove. The shape of the triangular block 505 is a laterally placed triangle. The clamping between the two can fix the scraper 503 at a plurality of positions during movement of the connecting frame 502. Without the influence of external force, the position of the scraper 503 will not change. The outer side wall of the connecting frame 502 is in contact with the surface of the multi-stage contact block 501. When the moving seat 3 drives the connecting frame 502 to move, it moves to the left to spread the powder once or moves to the right to spread the powder. When it moves to the end of the electric guide rail 1, it will press the triangular block 502 of the connecting frame 502 through the multi-stage contact block 501 to drive the scraper 503 to rise, so as to fix the rising position of the scraper 503 through the triangular block 505, so that the initial height of the scraper 503 can be raised by one level each time the powder is spread, so as to dynamically adjust the thickness of the spread powder. The lower surface of the connecting seat 507 is in contact with the surface of the abutting block 508.

[0029] Working principle: when the multi-material powder spreading device for laser additive manufacturing works, firstly, the anti-powdering mechanism 4 realizes powder anti-coagulation and quantitative spreading: the electric guide rail 1 drives the two groups of guide seats 2 to drive the moving seat 3 to move. The motor 401 on the outer side of the moving seat 3 is started. The output shaft drives the quantitative spreading roller 402 to rotate. At the same time, the belt pulley c412 drives the belt pulley b411 to rotate through the belt transmission. The belt pulley b411 drives the main transmission shaft 406 to rotate. The convex rod 413 on the outer arc surface of the main transmission shaft 406 slides along the inner side of the annular corrugated groove of the support frame b409, so that the main transmission shaft 406 rotates while making reciprocating transverse movement. The main transmission shaft 406 drives the storage box 403 to move synchronously. At the same time, the main transmission shaft 406 drives the left side belt pulley a405 through the convex groove transmission, and drives the right side belt pulley a405 to rotate through the belt. The two groups of belt pulleys a405 drive the corresponding stirring shafts 404 to rotate in the storage cavity to scatter the powder and prevent coagulation. During quantitative spreading, the motor 401 drives the quantitative spreading roller 402 to rotate forward or reversely, so that the cavity is aligned with the discharge port of the corresponding storage cavity of the storage box 403 to receive the material. Then, the cavity is reversed to face downward, and the moving seat 3 is driven by the electric guide rail 1 to move, so as to uniformly spread the powder on the surface of the processing table.

[0030] The powder paving and scraping are achieved by lifting the scraping mechanism 5 layer by layer: the scraping plate 503 fixed on both sides of the connecting frame 502 at the bottom end of the moving seat 3 is moved to scrape the powder on the surface of the processing table; the triangular block 505 on the inner side of the scraping plate 503 is clamped into the clamping groove at the bottom end of the moving seat 3 to fix the initial height of the scraping plate 503; when the moving seat 3 moves to the end of the electric guide rail 1, the connecting frame 502 is in contact with the four-corner multi-stage contact block 501, the triangular extrusion of the multi-stage contact block 501 drives the scraping plate 503 to rise, the triangular block 505 is extruded and compressed to reset the spring 504 to disengage the clamping groove, and after rising, the reset spring 504 pushes the triangular block 505 to clamp into the clamping groove at a higher position, so that the height of the scraping plate 503 is increased by one level to adapt to the thickness of the powder paving layer by layer; after the processing is completed, the electric telescopic rod 506 at the front end of the moving seat 3 drives the connecting seat 507 to descend, the connecting seat 507 is in contact with the abutting block 508 on the outer side of the scraping plate 503, and the scraping plate 503 and the connecting frame 502 are pushed down to reset to the initial lowest height, waiting for the next operation.
