Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of 3D printing, in particular to a two-way sand laying device for a sand mold 3D printer. Background Art

[0002] In the process of 3D printing of foundry sand molds, the sand laying equipment of the 3D printer plays a pivotal role. Its core function is to lay the sand layer evenly on the workbench. After a layer is laid, the print head can accurately perform the printing task on it. This process is repeated, which places strict requirements on the smoothness and wrinkle-free characteristics of the sand surface.

[0003] Sand spreaders can be divided into two categories according to their working principles: one-way sand spreaders and two-way sand spreaders. After one layer of sand is laid, the one-way sand spreader needs to run empty, which affects the speed and accuracy of printing to a certain extent. In contrast, the two-way sand spreader doubles the efficiency by laying in both directions. However, this design usually requires two sand discharge ports, which makes the structure complicated and takes up more space.

[0004] At present, the one-way sanding device needs to run empty once, and the printing speed is slow and the precision is not high; the two-way sanding device generally needs to have two sand supply ports, or a reversing mechanism. This kind of sand supply distribution path is long and the structure is complex, which increases the difficulty and cost of implementation.

[0005] Therefore, based on the above technical problems, it is necessary for technicians in this field to develop a two-way sand laying device for a sand mold 3D printer. Utility Model Content

[0006] The utility model aims to provide a two-way sand-laying device for a sand mold 3D printer to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0007] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0008] A technical solution for a bidirectional sand-laying device of a sand mold 3D printer, comprising a left mounting support and a right mounting support which are relatively distributed, a side guard plate being arranged between the backs of the left mounting support and the right mounting support, and a sand hopper plate being arranged between the insides, an inclined sand hopper plate being arranged on the opposite side of the sand hopper plate, a left sand hopper end plate and a right sand hopper end plate being arranged on both sides of the inclined sand hopper plate and the sand hopper plate, respectively, and a feeding roller being arranged between the sand hopper plate and the inclined sand hopper plate.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution, an adjustment plate is provided below the feed roller, and a sand scraping plate is symmetrically provided below the adjustment plate.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution, a motor is disposed on the outer wall of the right mounting support, a reducer is connected to the output end of the motor, and the output end of the reducer is connected to the feeding roller.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution, the shaft end of the feeding roller is connected to the left mounting support and the right mounting support through a bearing seat.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution, a vibrator is provided on the back side of the inclined sand hopper plate.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution, the left mounting support, the right mounting support, the side guard plate, the inclined sand bucket plate, the left sand bucket end plate, the right sand bucket end plate, the sand bucket plate and the scraper plate are all assembled and connected by bolts.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0015] The utility model is a two-way sand-laying device for a sand mold 3D printer. The sand storage hopper area is composed of multiple components, and a rotating feeding roller is arranged inside the sand storage hopper to accurately control the amount of sand fed. The design allows for the storage of multiple layers of sand to meet the needs of continuous printing. Multiple sand-laying operations can be achieved with a single load, which is particularly suitable for efficient and continuous sand-laying printing processes. In order to solve the problem of looseness that may occur after the sand is scattered, the design of the two-way oblique scraper plate cleverly applies appropriate vertical pressure through the inclined scraper plate, thereby ensuring that the compactness of the sand layer and the standard of sand mold quality hardness are achieved.

[0016] This simple two-way inclined plate scraping structure not only realizes the function of two-way sand spreading, but also ensures the stability of sand mold quality. Through this structure, it effectively reduces abnormal conditions such as loose sand layer, further ensures the density of sand layer and the quality of sand mold hardness, and significantly improves the qualified rate of products.

[0017] The bidirectional sand-laying design of this solution significantly improves the printing efficiency. It can realize forward and backward sand-laying operations at the same time. Multiple layers can be covered with a single sand-laying operation, which greatly reduces the waiting time caused by sand-laying during the printing process and greatly improves the overall printing efficiency.

[0018] The design is simple and practical. The sand supply process can be controlled through a sand hopper and a drum. Combined with the setting of a bidirectional oblique scraper sand plate, the bidirectional sanding function can be easily realized, which reduces complexity and enhances practicality.
