Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of light-curing 3D printers, and more specifically, to a light-curing 3D printer with a parallel light source. Background Art

[0002] Stereolithography 3D printing uses a special photosensitive resin that hardens when exposed to light. Stereolithography 3D printing technology, also known as stereolithography (SLA) or photosensitive resin 3D printing, is a 3D printing technology based on the principle of photocuring. Its basic principle is to use ultraviolet light (UV) or other visible light sources to irradiate liquid photosensitive resin to solidify it layer by layer and eventually accumulate it into a three-dimensional entity.

[0003] The backlight source used in the LCD screen of the existing light-curing 3D printer emits light with different intensities in different areas. Usually, the light intensity in the center area of ​​the light source is higher, and the light intensity in the edge area is lower than that in the center area, resulting in disadvantages such as low yield and low molding efficiency in the molding process.

[0004] After searching, the light-curing 3D printer disclosed in the Chinese patent with publication number CN209971566U is a utility model. The dispersed light sources of multiple LED lamp beads on the LED lamp board are formed into parallel light sources through the refraction and dimming effect of a convex lens, thereby reducing the molding error in the light-curing 3D printing process and improving the molding rate of light-curing 3D printing.

[0042] Reference Figure 1As shown, specifically, a sealing ring 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the printer body 1 to maintain the airtightness of the interior when printing.

[0043] Reference Figure 3 As shown, specifically, a motor 16 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the printer body 1 to provide power for the movement of the slider 19 .

[0044] Reference Figure 1 As shown, specifically, a threaded rod 17 is coaxially connected to the output end of the motor 16 , a threaded block 18 is movably connected to the outer side of the threaded rod 17 , and a slider 19 is movably connected to the outer side of the threaded block 18 , so that the slider 19 can move smoothly on the outer side of the threaded block 18 .

[0048] Working principle of the utility model: When performing light-curing 3D printing, first pour the resin into the interior of the resin box 28, fix the resin box 28 to the top of the printer body 1 through two fixing frames 27, then push the clamping block 24 on the top of the molding platform 26 into the interior of the two fixing blocks 20, and the two telescopic rods 21 and the spring 22 inside the two fixing blocks 20 push the clamping block 23 to clamp the two sides of the clamping block 24, so that the molding platform 26 can be quickly fixed to the bottom of the two fixing blocks 20, and then the front cover 4 is rotated through the two hinges 3 to close the top of the printer body 1, and then the motor 16 drives the threaded rod 17 to rotate, and the threaded rod 17 drives the slider 19 to slide on the outside of the threaded block 18, so that the slider 19 drives the front molding platform 26 to move downward to the interior of the resin box 28. The printer body 1 then performs a photocuring reaction on the resin inside the resin box 28, so that the resin is formed at the bottom of the forming platform 26. During this process, the fan 8 inhales some toxic gases generated inside the rear cover shell 2 and the front cover shell 4 into the interior of the processing box 9 through the ventilation pipe 6. The water mist nozzle 10 sprays water at the bottom of the processing box 9 to neutralize the toxic gases. The neutralized gas is then subjected to a secondary treatment through the activated carbon board 12 and finally discharged from the filter screen 13 on one side of the processing box 9. The activated carbon board 12 can be pulled out through the slide 11, and the activated carbon board 12 can be quickly replaced. After printing is completed, the front cover shell 4 is rotated upward through the two hinges 3 to adsorb the two magnets 5 on the top of the rear cover shell 2 and the front cover shell 4, so that the front cover shell 4 is quickly fixed on the top of the hinge 3, which is convenient for subsequent object removal.
