Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of 3D printing model post-processing equipment. Background Art

[0002] After the photocuring 3D printer completes the model printing, it needs post-processing. Because it uses photosensitive resin as the raw material for 3D printing, after printing, a large amount of liquid photosensitive resin remains on the outer surface of the model and the solid photosensitive resin on the outer surface of the model is not completely cured, so it generally goes through three processes: cleaning, drying and secondary curing.

[0003] In the cleaning process, some use ultrasonic waves to clean the 3D printed model, some use a magnetic transmission device to transfer power to stir the water inside the cleaning barrel to clean the 3D printed model, some use the 3D printed model to immerse the 3D printed model in the solvent in the barrel, and some use the faucet to rinse directly. Some dry by air drying, some by fan drying, and some by hot air drying. Secondary curing is performed by irradiating ultraviolet light. In the secondary curing technology, some 3D printed models are not moved, and LED light strips are set in the space where the 3D printed model is placed. The ultraviolet light is irradiated to the outer surface of the 3D printed model to form secondary curing through the principle of emitting light. Some are placed in a rotating device, and the ultraviolet LED light modules are different, so that the 3D printed model is irradiated 360 degrees to form a secondary curing.

[0004] Technologies worth referring to include:

[0005] Chinese patent application number CN2020230754352 is titled "A cleaning and curing all-in-one machine for 3D printing". The cleaning and secondary curing of this technology are independent, that is, the 3D printed model needs to be replaced in different devices, and different processes are implemented in different locations.

[0006] Chinese patent application number CN2021202592803, named a 3D printing secondary curing and cleaning integrated device, the technology is to use a magnetic transmission device to transmit power to the internal stirring impeller to stir the water to clean the 3D printed model. The cleaned 3D printed model is placed on a turntable and then irradiated with ultraviolet light for secondary light curing.

[0007] Chinese patent application number CN2020232042210, titled A cleaning mechanism and 3D printer for photocuring 3D printing, can well reflect the shortcomings of this technology: the 3D printed model is placed in a mesh basket, and then the power is transmitted to the water in the bucket through a magnetic stirring device for stirring, and the stirred water cleans the 3D printed model. However, during the cleaning process, the 3D printed model cannot rotate, and cannot be lifted up by the lifting device to leave the liquid surface of the cleaning liquid, and cannot be lifted up and then driven to rotate to be blown by a fan and irradiated with ultraviolet light for secondary curing. Utility Model Content

[0008] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a 3D printed model cleaning basket, which can be driven to rotate during the cleaning process, and can be lifted up after the cleaning is completed, and after being lifted up, can be irradiated by ultraviolet light and dried by wind and water in a rotating state.

[0009] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is:

[0010] A 3D printed model cleaning net basket comprises: a supporting part, a driving part and a connecting part connected between the supporting part and the driving part; the driving part is configured as a driving part that allows the driving device to drive the driving part to rotate; one side of the supporting part between the driving part and the supporting part is configured as a 3D printed model placement area; the area located in the middle of the driving part is configured with an inlet for inserting the 3D printed model; the supporting part is provided with an outlet for excreting cleaning liquid; a light-transmitting area is provided next to the connecting part between the driving part and the supporting part, which allows ultraviolet light to irradiate from the outside into the 3D printed model placement area; and the light-transmitting area is a light-transmitting area that allows wind to blow from the outside into the 3D printed model placement area.

The outlets are designed on the support part to facilitate the discharge of the cleaning liquid, and the cleaning liquid can also flow out from the light-transmitting area.

[0014] There are two connection parts between the driving part and the supporting part, namely the first connection part and the second connection part; the first connection part and the second connection part are arranged in a circular array on the outer edge of the supporting part; the first connection part and the second connection part cooperate to form two light-transmitting areas, namely the first light-transmitting area and the second light-transmitting area. In order to make the structure more stable, two connection parts are designed.

[0015] The driving part, connecting part and supporting part are integrally formed, mainly to save the cost of large-scale production, and are produced by injection molding.

[0016] The driving part, connecting part and supporting part are welded together as one, mainly for the purpose of early market verification when they are produced by opening plastic molds, so they are welded with stainless steel materials.

[0017] The 3D printed model is a space that gradually shrinks from the entrance to the exit, mainly to facilitate the removal of the 3D printed model.

[0019] The 3D printed model cleaning net basket also includes a handle portion, which is connected to at least one of the driving portion, the connecting portion, and the supporting portion. The main purpose of designing the handle is to facilitate taking out the entire net basket to clean the cleaning machine, and at the same time, the 3D printed model can be placed in the net basket for easy removal.

[0020] The handle includes a first portion, a second portion and a third portion; the first portion and the third portion are respectively arranged at two ends of the second portion, the first portion and the second portion are perpendicular to each other, the third portion and the second portion are perpendicular to each other, and the first portion and the third portion are parallel to each other; one end of the first portion and one end of the third portion are both connected to the driving portion.

[0021] As a preferred solution, two handles are arranged on the upper end surface of the driving portion, and the user can lift the entire net basket by simply lifting the handles.

[0022] The utility model has the advantages of being driven to rotate during the cleaning process, being allowed to be lifted up after the cleaning is completed, and being allowed to be irradiated by ultraviolet light and dried by wind and water in a rotating state after being lifted up.
