[0032] Reference Figure 1-6 The utility model provides a 3D printer that is easy to clean: it includes a box body 1, three mounting frames 2 are fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the box body 1, and slide plates 3 are slidably connected to the inside of the three mounting frames 2. The bottoms of the three slide plates 3 are respectively fixedly connected to mounting plates 1, 2, 6 and 3 through a plurality of springs 1, 4. A scraper 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 1, a connecting plate 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 2, and a connecting rod 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plate 9. A wiping sponge 11 is movably sleeved on the outer surface of the connecting rod 10, and a special cleaning solution is adsorbed on the wiping sponge 11. A sliding frame 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 3 7, and a slider 13 is movably connected to the inside of the sliding frame 12. A drying sponge 14 is arranged at the bottom of the slider 13. The mounting plate and the sliding frame 12 can be driven to move to the outside of the box body 1 through the movable opening 15 by pulling the corresponding slider 3, so that the slider 13 and the drying sponge 14 can be taken out and replaced or cleaned. A collecting component is arranged on the outer surface of the box body 1.
[0033] The outer surface of the box body 1 is provided with three movable openings 15 , and the three movable openings 15 correspond to the positions of the three slide plates 3 respectively.
[0034] The collecting assembly includes a supporting plate 16 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the box body 1, a collecting box 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the supporting plate 16, cleaning plates 19 are installed on both sides of the inner wall of the collecting box 17 through two springs 18, an opening 20 is opened on one side of the collecting box 17, a collecting frame 21 is movably connected inside the opening 20, and a handle 22 is fixedly connected to one side of the collecting frame 21.
[0035] Abutment plates 23 are fixedly connected to both sides of the inner wall of the collecting box 17, and one side of the two abutment plates 23 abuts against one side of the two cleaning plates 19 respectively. Through the setting of the two abutment plates 23, the particles attached to the outer surface of the scraper 8 can be cleaned, thereby improving the cleanliness of the scraper 8 and further improving the scraping effect of the scraper 8 on the supporting platform 30.
[0036] A motor 24 is arranged inside the box body 1, and a rotating rod 25 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 24. A groove 26 is provided on the outer surface of the rotating rod 25, and a moving block 27 is slidably connected inside the groove 26. A ring 28 is fixedly connected to one side of the moving block 27, and the ring 28 is movably sleeved on the outer surface of the rotating rod 25. A support rod 29 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the ring 28, and a support platform 30 is arranged on the top of the support rod 29.
[0037] A wedge plate 31 is fixedly connected to the inside of the box body 1, and the top of the wedge plate 31 is movably abutted against the bottom of the support rod 29. An equipment opening 32 is opened on the top of the box body 1. When the support rod 29 drives the support platform 30 to move to the inclined surface of the wedge plate 31, the moving block 27 and the ring 28 will gradually move downward, thereby driving the support platform 30 to move to the inside of the box body 1.
[0038] Working principle: When the support platform 30 needs to be cleaned, the motor 24 is started to drive the rotating rod 25, the collar 28 and the support platform 30 to rotate. When the support rod 29 moves to the inclined surface on one side of the wedge plate 31, the moving block 27 will slide down inside the slide slot, thereby driving the support platform 30 to move downward and move to the inside of the box body 1. When the support rod 29 drives the support platform 30 to move to the bottom of the scraper 8, under the action of the corresponding spring 14, the bottom of the scraper 8 is pushed to abut against the top of the support platform 30, thereby scraping off the particles on the support platform 30.
[0039] When the support rod 29 drives the support platform 30 to move to the position of the wiping sponge 11, the cleaning solution on the wiping sponge 11 is used to wipe the top surface of the support platform 30 under the action of the corresponding spring 14, so that the dust and impurities accumulated on the support platform 30 are cleaned, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the support platform 30, and when it is necessary to clean the outer surface of the scraper 8, the corresponding slide plate 3 can be pulled to drive the mounting plate 15 and the scraper 8 to pass through the corresponding movable opening 15 to move toward the inside of the collection box 17, so that the two cleaning plates 19 are respectively abutted against the two sides of the scraper 8 under the action of the spring 2 18, and in the process of the movement of the scraper 8, the particles attached to the outer surface of the scraper 8 are cleaned, and the cleaned particles will fall into the collection frame 21, and the staff can take it out by pulling the handle 22 and clean the particles inside it;
[0040] Then, when the support platform 30 moves to the position of the dry sponge 14, the cleaning solution remaining on the surface of the support platform 30 can be wiped off by the dry sponge 14 to avoid the cleaning solution remaining on the support platform 30 and forming water stains, thereby further improving the cleanliness of the support platform 30;
[0041] When the support rod 29 rotates to the inclined surface on the other side of the wedge plate 31 , the moving block 27 and the collar 28 will gradually move upward, thereby driving the support platform 30 to move upward, so that the support platform 30 returns to the inside of the equipment opening 32 .
[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein.
