AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing 3D printer filament buffer mechanisms, the elastic telescopic component loses support during the maximum stroke of the filament, which can cause it to bend significantly, leading to filament accumulation and making it difficult to automatically stop feeding.

Method used

The design of inserting the inner material tube into the outer material tube ensures that the wire is always supported within the inner and outer material tubes, preventing excessive bending curvature. Friction is reduced by the guide tube and the limiting ring, and a detection component controls the feeding assembly to stop.

Benefits of technology

It effectively prevents the filament from accumulating in the buffer mechanism, ensures that the feeding component can stop in time, avoids excessive stretching or loosening of the filament, and improves printing stability.

Abstract

本发明公开了一种具有线料缓冲机构的3D打印机,具体涉及3D打印领域,包括3D打印机本体和线料缓冲机构,线料缓冲机构包括缓冲盒,缓冲盒的一端安装有送料组件,缓冲盒的另一端设置有弹性伸缩组件;缓冲盒靠近送料组件的一侧开设有料孔,料孔靠近弹性伸缩组件的一端固定安装有内料管,弹性伸缩组件上安装有外料管,内料管插入外料管的内部,并且内料管和外料管之间具有过渡间隙。本发明通过设置内料管和外料管,采用内料管插在外料管内的方式,即使缓冲块移动,线料也会始终在内料管和外料管的内部被支撑,从而避免了线料的弯曲弧度变大,也就不会出现由于线料堆积所导致的缓冲块无法移动到最大行程位置使送料组件停止输送的问题。
