Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of 3D printing, and in particular to a data collector for a 3D printer. Background Art

[0002] A 3D printer is a machine that uses digital model files as a basis, uses special wax materials, powdered metals or plastics and other adhesive materials, and prints layers of adhesive materials to manufacture three-dimensional objects. Most of the current 3D printers have fault diagnosis functions. Therefore, during the production process, a large amount of data on the 3D printer in a faulty state is required. Currently, attitude sensors are generally used to collect data on the 3D printing dynamic platform. However, attitude sensors are generally independent devices. When collecting data on the 3D printing dynamic platform, the attitude sensors are generally placed directly on the 3D printing dynamic platform to collect data from it. However, when the 3D printing dynamic platform moves, the attitude sensor is prone to displacement relative to the 3D printing dynamic platform, which causes certain errors in data collection and may result in low data collection accuracy.

During installation, it is only necessary to first install the mounting seat on the moving platform, and then insert the attitude sensor into the plug-in block, which is convenient for installation.

[0006] Preferably, an adhesive sheet is embedded in the bottom of the base, and the adhesive sheet is used to be connected to the moving platform.

[0007] By adopting the above solution, after the base is placed on the moving platform, the base sticks to the moving platform due to the setting of the adhesive sheet, thereby fixing the base on the moving platform, and the base can be removed by simply separating the base and the moving platform with force.

[0008] Preferably, a fixing part is provided on the base, and the fixing part is specifically provided in an L shape.

The fixing part and the plug-in block clamp the connecting ear, and the other end of the fixing part is used to cover the connecting ear.

[0009] By adopting the above solution, the fixing member is installed on the base through the cooperation between the clamping member and the clamping groove, and the fixing member covers the connecting ear, thereby further fixing the posture sensor, making the position of the posture sensor more stable.

[0010] Preferably, a groove is provided on the top surface of the plug-in block, and a protrusion is correspondingly provided on the fixing member, the protrusion fits with the groove, and the protrusion is used to be inserted in the groove.

[0013] In summary, the beneficial technical effects of this application are:

[0014] 1. Since the plug-in block is inserted into the connecting holes on both sides of the attitude sensor, the attitude sensor is fixed on the two mounting bases, so that the attitude sensor can be stably placed on the moving platform, which is beneficial for the attitude sensor to collect data from the moving platform. During installation, you only need to install the mounting base on the moving platform first, and then plug the attitude sensor into the plug-in block, which is easy to install.
