[0041] The following is a further detailed description of the specific implementation of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0042] like Figures 1 to 6 The convenient shoveling material separation printing platform suitable for thermoplastic printers includes a carrier substrate 1, which is different in that: a parking baffle 2 is arranged on one side of the carrier substrate 1, and side panels 3 are arranged on both sides of the parking baffle 2 of the carrier substrate 1, and the parking baffle 2 and the side panels 3 are arranged in a concave shape. In this way, the subsequent operation of the pusher block 5 is guided to form a motion guide to meet the needs of sequential bottom demoulding of the printed product 19 from back to front. During the implementation, a mirror-distributed guide groove 4 is arranged on the side plate 3, and a pusher block 5 is arranged on the carrier substrate 1. The two ends of the pusher block 5 are mirror-distributed with guide posts 6, and the guide posts 6 are embedded in the guide groove 4. In addition, the bottom of the pusher block 5 contacts the carrier substrate 1, thereby realizing the forward guidance of the pusher block 5 and avoiding unnecessary warping at its lower end. Ensure that during use, non-destructive shoveling material separation can be achieved for the bottom of the printed product 19. At the same time, considering the force guidance during use, a force device is provided on the guide post 6. Thus, the pusher block 5 can be driven to move better. Furthermore, in order to achieve coordinated positioning with the heating device of the hot bed preset in the conventional thermoplastic printer, a positioning mechanism can be provided on the carrier substrate 1. Considering the pin structure preset on the conventional hot bed, the positioning mechanism used is a plurality of array-distributed connection grooves 18.
[0043] In combination with a preferred embodiment of the utility model, in order to achieve effective temperature transfer, the carrier substrate 1 is an aluminum plate, and a buckle limit edge 7 is provided at the bottom of the aluminum plate. In this way, it can cooperate with the edge buckle groove preset on the hot bed, so that the buckle limit edge 7 is embedded in the edge buckle groove to meet the chassis positioning of the aluminum plate. For some applications with low thermal conductivity requirements, a marble plate can also be used to form the carrier substrate 1. Several limit grooves are provided on the edge of the marble plate. In this way, the card strip attached to the outer side of the conventional hot bed can be embedded in the limit groove, and the chassis positioning of the marble can also be achieved. Therefore, when the pusher block 5 is used, there will be no unnecessary follow-up or shaking of the carrier substrate 1. Furthermore, considering some simple configuration printers without hot beds, the utility model can reserve a heating groove (not shown in the figure) at the bottom of the carrier substrate 1, and an auxiliary mounting hole 8 is provided on the side of the carrier substrate 1. In this way, the integrated configuration of the heating component can be realized, reducing the implementation cost.
[0044] Further, the front of the carrier substrate 1 is provided with a mounting groove, in which a positioning rubber strip is provided, and the docking baffle 2 and the side plate 3 are embedded in the mounting groove and adhered to the positioning rubber strip. In this way, a stable combination can be achieved to avoid loosening due to force during use. During implementation, other structures can also be used to achieve a stable combination of the docking baffle 2, the side plate 3, and the carrier substrate 1, which will not be repeated here.
[0045] In view of the actual implementation, the pusher block 5 adopted by the utility model includes a block body 9, and a concave contact surface 20 is provided on the front side of the block body 9. In this way, the raised part of the printed product 19 can be made to give way to avoid hard collision during separation. At the same time, a metal shovel blade 10 is provided below the block body 9, which is convenient for shoveling and applying force to the bottom of the printed product 19 to achieve lossless separation. In addition, a reinforcement strip 11 is provided inside the block body 9 to achieve appropriate support assistance to avoid excessive collapse and deformation during use. Furthermore, installation shafts are extended from both sides of the reinforcement strip 11 toward the outside of the block body 9, and a force-applying device is provided on the installation shaft. In this way, it is convenient to apply force to control the movement of the pusher block 5. Specifically, the metal shovel blade 10 is provided with a forward tilt angle of 2 to 4 degrees. In this way, it has a better shoveling effect and can meet the needs of lossless separation of the bottom of some thin-bottom printed products 19. There are several protrusions 12 distributed on the upper surface of the metal shovel blade 10. The block body 9 is a silicone block, and the protrusions 12 are embedded in the block body 9. In this way, the two are firmly combined to avoid improper shaking or loosening during use. Considering stable support, the reinforcement bar 11 is a cylindrical metal bar or a cubic metal bar. Of course, metal bars of other shapes can also be used as long as they can meet the requirements of stable support without abnormal collapse.
[0046] Looking further, the force-applying device includes a one-way shaft assembly 13 connected to the guide column 6, and a handle 14 is connected to the one-way shaft assembly 13. In this way, the handle 14 can be stored by the one-way shaft assembly 13 when not in use. When it is necessary to hold the handle 14, the handle 14 can also bear the force and will not fold in the opposite direction, relying on the characteristics of the one-way shaft assembly 13. In this way, the needs of manual shoveling control can be met. In order to meet the needs of automated use, the force-applying device used can also include a threaded guide block 15 connected to the guide column 6, and a screw motor 16 is provided on the outer side of the supporting substrate 1, and the screw assembly 17 of the screw motor 16 is connected to the threaded hole of the threaded guide block 15. In this way, the screw motor 16 can be used to achieve stable traction guidance, meet the continuous and uniform force of the push block 5, and perform non-destructive shoveling.
[0047] The working principle of the utility model is as follows:
[0048] The carrier substrate 1 of the present invention can be stably combined with the preset hot bed of the thermoplastic printer in a conventional manner.
[0049] After the printing is completed, the pusher block 5 starts to contact the printed product 19 by the driving of the force-applying device. After that, the metal shovel blade 10 continuously applies force to the printed product 19. Then, the printed product 19 starts to separate from the supporting substrate 1. After the separation is completed, one side of the printed product 19 is just flexibly supported by the block body 9. Then, the force-applying drive of the force-applying device is suspended to reset the pusher block 5. Finally, the printed product 19 can be removed.
[0050] It can be seen from the above text description and the accompanying drawings that the following advantages are achieved after adopting the utility model:
[0051] 1. The pusher block can realize non-destructive shoveling of materials and lossless separation of printed products.
[0052] 2. There is no need to use a shovel to apply force in multiple directions, no operating experience is required, and it is more convenient to use.
[0053] 3. The push block can flexibly support the printed product without causing secondary damage.
[0054] 4. The overall structure is simple, easy to manufacture and use, can meet the needs of conventional thermoplastic printers, and has good versatility.
[0055] In addition, the indicated orientations or positional relationships described in the present invention are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description. They do not indicate or imply that the device or structure referred to must have a specific orientation or be operated with a specific orientation structure. Therefore, they cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.
[0056] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. It should be pointed out that a person skilled in the art can make several improvements and modifications without departing from the technical principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the protection scope of the present invention.
