[0022] See also Figure 1-6 The utility model provides a technical solution: a 3D printer tray structure for collecting waste materials, including a tray body 1, a material receiving box 2 and a material receiving groove 3, the outer periphery of the tray body 1 is provided with the material receiving groove 3, a fixing block 4 is provided at the middle position of the lower surface of the tray body 1, the fixing block 4 is penetrated with a mounting hole, a lead screw pair nut 5 is provided in the mounting hole opened inside the fixing block 4, guide blocks 6 are respectively provided on both sides of the lower surface of the two ends of the fixing block 4, the guide block 6 is penetrated with a guide hole 7, an opening 12 is provided at one end of the material receiving groove 3, a support plate 8 is provided on the outer side of the material receiving groove 3 and located at the opening 12, two columns 9 are respectively provided on the upper surfaces of the two sides of the support plate 8, side plates 10 are provided on both sides of the material receiving box 2, and the side plates 10 are opened. Two positioning holes 11 are provided, and the side plates 10 are supported on both sides of the support plate 8. The positioning holes 11 correspond to the columns 9 one by one and are plugged into each other. The top of the column 9 is chamfered so that the positioning holes 11 of the side plates 10 can be smoothly mounted on the columns 9. The upper surface of the material receiving box 2 is open, and the horizontal height of the upper surface of the material receiving box 2 is flush with the horizontal height of the opening 12 of the material receiving trough 3, so that the waste can smoothly enter the material receiving box 2 from the material receiving trough 3. The lead screw nut 5 cooperates with the lead screw 13, and the guide block 6 cooperates with the guide rod 14. When the lead screw 13 rotates, it drives the tray body 1 to move along the guide rod 14. The material receiving box 2 is arranged between the lead screw 13 and the guide rod 14 on the corresponding side to ensure that the material receiving box 2 can be smoothly installed on the outside of the material receiving trough 3.

[0023] like Figure 7As shown, the support plate 8 includes a main plate 801 and an extension plate 802. An extension plate 802 is arranged on the same side of each end of the main plate 801. The column 9 is arranged on the upper surface of the extension plate 802. The main plate 801 is bonded to the corresponding position of the lower surface of the material receiving trough 3. The support plate 8 of this structure ensures the structural strength on the one hand, and realizes mutual cooperation with the side plates 10 on both sides of the material receiving box 2 on the other hand.

[0024] Usage and principle: The tray body 1 is matched with the lead screw 13 through the lead screw nut 5, and then the guide block 6 is matched with the guide rod 14, so that the tray body 1 is installed on the base of the 3D printer. Then the main plate 801 of the support plate 8 is bonded to the lower surface of the material receiving slot 3, and the extension plate 802 of the support plate 8 is located on both sides of the opening 12 of the material receiving slot 3. When in use, the side plates 10 on both sides of the material receiving box 2 are matched with the extension plate 802, and the positioning holes 11 of the side plates 10 are matched with the columns 9, and the columns 9 pass through the positioning holes 11 of the side plates 10, so that the material receiving box 2 is hung at the opening 12 of the material receiving slot 3, and the connection between the material receiving box 2 and the material receiving slot 3 is completed. At this time, the horizontal height of the upper surface of the material receiving box 2 is flush with the horizontal height of the opening 12 of the material receiving slot 3. When the debris produced during 3D printing falls on the tray body 1, the debris can be scraped into the receiving slot 3 first. When there is a certain amount of debris in the receiving slot 3, it is finally moved to the opening 12 of the receiving slot 3 and collected in the receiving box 2. Then the receiving box 2 is lifted to separate the side plate 10 from the column 9. After cleaning the receiving box 2, the receiving box 2 is hung on the opening 12 of the receiving slot 3 through the column 9 again, thereby realizing the collection of waste. The utility model has a reasonable structure. A circle of receiving slots 3 is arranged on the periphery of the tray body 1. The receiving slots 3 can prevent waste from falling onto the base of the 3D printer, reducing the difficulty of cleaning. At the same time, an opening 12 is arranged on one side of the receiving slot 3, and a receiving box 2 is arranged at the opening 12 of the receiving slot 3, thereby facilitating the unified collection of waste and greatly improving the convenience.
