Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of printing equipment, in particular to a tensioning device, a belt transmission device and a three-dimensional forming device. Background Art

[0002] In a three-dimensional forming device, such as an FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) printer, a guide frame drives a print head to descend to a preset position, and a nozzle of the print head selectively sprays materials onto a print platform in a scanning manner according to the cross-sectional shape of a product. After the materials are cooled, the first layer of the printed product is formed. The guide frame drives the print head to rise by one layer, and the second layer is printed on the basis of the first layer, and three-dimensional printing is achieved by layer-by-layer accumulation.

[0003] In current FDM printers, a print platform or a print head can be connected to a base through a belt transmission mechanism to achieve the movement of the print platform or the print head in the XY plane. For the tensioning of the belt, usually, a user needs to tighten a screw by hand to tighten a synchronous pulley and synchronously tighten the belt. In this way, the tensioning force of the belt varies from person to person. However, a relatively large tensioning force will make the belt too tight, which easily causes the motor to lose steps and result in printing defects, such as vertical stripes and layer lines in the printed product. And a relatively small tensioning force makes the belt too loose, which easily causes the phenomenon of belt slipping, resulting in problems such as delayed printing actions, printing misalignment, and wavy patterns in the printed product.

Detailed implementation manners

[0035] In order to more clearly understand the above objects, features and advantages of the present utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present utility model and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0036] Next, with reference to Figures 1 to 8 Describe the tensioning device 100, the belt drive device 200 and the three-dimensional forming device provided according to some embodiments of the present utility model. Among them, the tensioning device 100 is for the belt drive device 200 and is used to perform a tensioning operation on the synchronous belt 210 of the belt drive device 200. The belt drive device 200 is for the three-dimensional forming device, and the three-dimensional forming device may include a print head and a forming platform. The belt drive device 200 is used to drive the print head and / or the print platform to move along a plane or a direction such as the XY plane. Among them, the XY plane may be as Figure 1and Figure 2 As shown by the arrow in Figure 2 , the three-dimensional forming device can be a printer of the fused deposition type.

[0037] Such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , and Figure 4 , an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention provides a tensioning device 100 for tensioning a timing belt 210. The tensioning device 100 includes: a fixed seat 110; a sliding seat 120 slidably connected to the fixed seat 110, with a tensioning wheel 130 provided on the sliding seat 120 for winding the timing belt 210; an elastic member 140 having two ends respectively connected to the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110, the elastic member 140 being in an energy storage state to cause the sliding seat 120 to slide relative to the fixed seat 110 for tensioning the timing belt 210; and a limiting assembly 150 including a locking member 151 and a limiting structure 152. The limiting structure 152 is located on the mutually contacting surfaces of the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120 to limit the direction of relative movement between the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120, and the locking member 151 is used to connect the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120 to limit the relative movement between the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120.

[0038] The tensioning device 100 provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes a fixed seat 110, a sliding seat 120, a tensioning wheel 130, an elastic member 140, and a limiting assembly 150. The sliding seat 120 is slidably connected to the fixed seat 110, and the tensioning wheel 130 is provided on the sliding seat 120 and wound around the timing belt 210 of the belt transmission device 200. It can be understood that the belt transmission device 200 further includes a timing pulley 221 and an idler pulley 230, and the timing belt 210 is sleeved and connected to the timing pulley 221, the tensioning wheel 130, and the idler pulley 230, thereby connecting the belt transmission device 200 and the tensioning device 100.

[0039] Since the two ends of the elastic member 140 are connected to the slide 120 and the fixed seat 110 respectively, the elastic member 140 is in an energy storage state so that the slide 120 slides relative to the fixed seat 110 to tension the synchronous belt. In this way, during the tensioning operation of the synchronous belt 210, the elastic member 140 in the energy storage state releases energy and applies elastic force to the slide 120 by means of the elastic deformation of the elastic member 140. Therefore, the tensioning force of the tensioning wheel 130 on the synchronous belt 210 located on the slide 120 is related to the elastic deformation of the elastic member 140 and will not be affected by the user's personal factors. Compared with the related art in which the user manually tightens the screw to tighten the synchronous wheel to achieve the belt tensioning operation, which will result in different tensioning forces of the synchronous belt 210 due to different operations by different people, the present embodiment applies tensioning force to the tensioning wheel 130 by means of the elastic deformation of the elastic member 140 to achieve the tensioning operation of the synchronous belt 210, and does not require the user to rely on feeling to judge the size of the tensioning force to adjust the tightness of the synchronous belt 210, ensuring that even if different users operate, they are all consistent. The elastic member 140 provides elastic force to the slide 120 without applying force, thereby ensuring the stability and constancy of the tensioning force provided by the tensioning wheel 130 to the synchronous belt 210, so that the tension of the synchronous belt 210 is maintained in an appropriate range, ensuring the movement accuracy of the printing platform or the print head in the XY plane, and avoiding the user's hand-tightening of the screws for belt tensioning operation, which results in a large tension force and a tighter synchronous belt 210, which may easily cause the motor to lose steps and produce printing defects, vertical grain and layer patterns on the printed products, and other problems. At the same time, it avoids the user's hand-tightening of the screws for belt tensioning operation, which results in a small tension force and a loose synchronous belt 210, resulting in belt slippage, resulting in delayed printing action, staggered printing, insufficient speed, and wavy patterns on the printed products. The printing quality is greatly improved and suitable for promotion and application.

[0040] Among them, the limiting component 150 includes a locking member 151 connected to the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120, and a direction limiting structure 152 located on the mutually contacting surfaces of the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120. The direction limiting structure 152 can limit the direction of the relative movement of the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120, and the locking member 151 can limit the relative movement of the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120. Thus, by jointly limiting the relative movement of the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120 by the locking member 151 and the direction limiting structure 152, the phenomenon that the synchronous belt 210 of the belt transmission device 200 drives the sliding seat 120 to move relative to the fixed seat 110 through the tensioning pulley 130 and affects the tensioning effect of the synchronous belt 210 can be reduced, preventing the sliding seat 120 from loosening relative to the fixed seat 110. Moreover, the direction limiting structure 152 plays a role in preventing the sliding seat 120 from retreating under the pulling of the synchronous belt 210, so that after the sliding seat 120 moves relative to the fixed seat 110 to a proper position, it can be reliably and stably maintained at the proper position to ensure a good and lasting tensioning effect of the synchronous belt 210, improve the motion accuracy of the belt transmission device 200, and ensure good printing quality. At the same time, the setting of the direction limiting structure 152 can reduce the force on the locking member 151, improve the service life of the locking member 151, and improve the overall reliability of the tensioning device 100 and the belt transmission device 200.

[0041] Among them, the direction limiting structure 152 is located on the mutually contacting surfaces of the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120, which can be understood as the direction limiting structure 152 being provided on or formed on the fixed seat 110 and located at the position of the mutually contacting surfaces of the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120, or the direction limiting structure 152 being provided on or formed on the sliding seat 120 and located at the position of the mutually contacting surfaces of the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120, or different parts of the direction limiting structure 152 being respectively provided on or formed on the fixed seat 110, provided on or formed on the sliding seat 120, and located at the position of the mutually contacting surfaces of the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120.

[0042] Among them, the locking member 151 is movable relative to the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120, or the locking member 151 is detachably connected to the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120. Thus, moving the locking member 151 relative to the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120 to the first specified position or detaching the locking member 151 from the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120 releases the restriction of the locking member 151 on the relative movement of the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120. At this time, the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110 can move relative to each other. Therefore, under the elastic action of the elastic member 140, the sliding seat 120 slides relative to the fixed seat 110 to a suitable position to achieve the tensioning operation of the synchronous belt 210. Then, move the locking member 151 relative to the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120 to the second specified position or install the locking member 151 on the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120, so that the locking member 151 can limit the relative movement of the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110, and make the sliding seat 120 reliably and stably maintain at a suitable position relative to the fixed seat 110. Since the limiting structure 152 is located on the mutually contacting surfaces of the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120 and limits the direction of the relative movement of the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120, double limiting is achieved by using the locking member 151 and the limiting structure 152, which can further improve the stability and reliability of the sliding seat 120 staying at a suitable position, avoid or reduce the possibility that the sliding seat 120 is pulled away by the synchronous belt 210 and moves relative to the fixed seat 110, resulting in the synchronous belt 210 being too loose or too tight, ensure that the synchronous belt 210 can be stably and durably maintained within a suitable tension range, improve the movement accuracy of the belt transmission device 200, and ensure good printing quality.

[0043] As Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, in some possible implementation embodiments provided by the present utility model, the number of the locking members 151 is one, the limiting structure 152 is set as a unidirectional limiting structure 152, and the limiting direction of the limiting structure 152 is the direction of loosening the synchronous belt 210, that is, the sliding seat 120 cannot move in the direction of loosening the synchronous belt 210.

[0044] Among them, the one-way limiting structure 152 can be understood as that the limiting structure 152 can limit the relative movement of the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110 in one direction, but has no limiting effect on the relative movement of the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110 along its direction. Specifically, the limiting direction of the limiting structure 152 is the direction to relax the synchronous belt 210, that is, the limiting structure 152 does not limit the direction of tensioning the synchronous belt 210. Thus, by cooperating the limiting structure 152 with a one-way limiting function with a locking member 151, when the number of locking members 151 is small, the sliding seat 120 can be reliably and stably maintained in a proper position relative to the fixed seat 110, ensuring that the synchronous belt 210 can be stably and durably maintained within a proper tension range, ensuring the movement accuracy of the belt transmission device 200, so as to improve the printing quality and printing effect. At the same time, compared with a larger number of locking members 151, one locking member 151 is beneficial to reducing the manufacturing cost of the tensioning device 100, and can simplify the disassembly and assembly steps of the locking member 151, thereby improving the tensioning efficiency of the tensioning device 100, reducing the influence of the tensioning operation on the printing time of the stereolithography apparatus, improving the printing efficiency of the stereolithography apparatus, and being suitable for popularization and application.

[0045] As Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 shown, in some possible embodiments provided by the present utility model, the sliding direction of the sliding seat 120 relative to the fixed seat 110 includes a first direction and a second direction. The elastic member 140 releases elastic potential energy to drive the sliding seat 120 to slide relative to the fixed seat 110 in the first direction, and the second direction is opposite to the first direction. Among them, the first direction can be as shown by the X+ direction in Figure 2 , and the second direction can be as shown by the X- direction in Figure 2 . The limiting structure 152 is used to limit the movement of the sliding seat 120 relative to the fixed seat 110 in the second direction.

[0046] Since generally, as the use time of the belt transmission device 200 increases, the tension of the synchronous belt 210 will gradually decrease, and the synchronous belt 210 will gradually become loose, affecting the transmission effect and further affecting the printing effect. Therefore, most of the tensioning operations are the process of adjusting the synchronous belt 210 from loose to tight. Therefore, by setting the limiting structure 152 as a one-way limiting structure 152, after the locking member 151 releases the restriction on the relative movement of the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110, during the movement of the sliding seat 120 relative to the fixed seat 110 in the first direction, the limiting structure 152 has no limiting effect on the relative movement of the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110, so that the sliding seat 120 can smoothly move to a proper position in the first direction under the action of the elastic member 140, realizing the tensioning operation of the synchronous belt 210 to realize the adjustment process of the synchronous belt 210 from loose to tight.

[0047] After the locking member 151 releases the restriction on the relative movement of the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110, during the movement of the sliding seat 120 relative to the fixed seat 110 in the second direction, the limiting structure 152 limits the relative movement of the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110, which can prevent the synchronous belt 210 from driving the sliding seat 120 to move backward. Thus, after the sliding seat 120 moves relative to the fixed seat 110 to a suitable position to complete the tensioning operation of the synchronous belt 210, by using the locking member 151 to connect with the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110 to restrict the relative movement of the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110, and then limiting the movement of the sliding seat 120 relative to the fixed seat 110 in the second direction through the limiting structure 152, it can well prevent the sliding seat 120 from being pulled by the tension of the synchronous belt 210, playing the role of preventing the sliding seat 120 from retreating, enabling the sliding seat 120 to be reliably and stably maintained in a suitable position to ensure a good and lasting tensioning effect of the synchronous belt 210, improving the movement accuracy of the belt transmission device 200, and being able to reduce the force on the locking member 151, improve the service life of the locking member 151, and improve the overall reliability of the locking device and the belt transmission device 200.

[0048] It can be understood that if the synchronous belt 210 is relatively tight and the tensioning operation requires loosening the synchronous belt 210 from being tight, after the locking member 151 releases the restriction on the relative movement of the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110, due to the limiting effect of the limiting structure 152 on the movement of the sliding seat 120 relative to the fixed seat 110 in the second direction, under the action of the elastic member 140 and the limiting structure 152, the sliding seat 120 cannot move independently relative to the fixed seat 110 in the second direction. At this time, the user can manually intervene in the synchronous belt 210 to make the synchronous belt 210 drive the sliding seat 120 to move relative to the fixed seat 110 in the second direction to a position that is far from the suitable position of the sliding seat 120. Then, after the user manually intervenes to release, under the action of the elastic member 140, the sliding seat 120 is driven to move to the suitable position automatically, and the automatic tensioning operation of the synchronous belt 210 can be realized.

[0049] As Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown in

[0050] Further, the limiting structure 152 includes a first limiting portion 122 disposed on the sliding seat 120 and a second limiting portion 116 disposed on the fixed seat 110. The first limiting portion 122 includes a plurality of first teeth, and the second limiting portion 116 includes a plurality of second teeth that match the first teeth. Through the cooperation of the plurality of first teeth on the sliding seat 120 and the plurality of second teeth on the fixed seat 110, after the tensioning operation is completed and the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110 are locked and fixed by the locking member 151, the first teeth and the second teeth cooperate with each other to increase the frictional force on the contact surface between the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110, which can well prevent the sliding seat 120 from being pulled by the tension of the synchronous belt 210, playing a role in preventing the sliding seat 120 from retreating, enabling the sliding seat 120 to be reliably and stably maintained in a proper position to ensure a good and lasting tensioning effect of the synchronous belt 210, improving the motion accuracy of the belt transmission device 200, and being able to reduce the force on the locking member 151, improving the service life of the locking member 151, and improving the overall reliability of the locking device and the belt transmission device 200.

[0051] It can be understood that by reasonably setting the structures of the first teeth and the second teeth, the cooperation between the first teeth and the second teeth can limit the movement of the sliding seat 120 relative to the fixed seat 110 in the second direction, and does not limit the movement of the sliding seat 120 relative to the fixed seat 110 in the first direction.

[0052] Specifically, as Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown, the first teeth are distributed on both sides of the locking member 151, and the second teeth are distributed on both sides of the locking member 151, that is, the limiting structure is distributed on both sides of the locking member 151.

[0053] As Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown, in some possible embodiments provided by the present utility model, the fixed seat 110 is provided with an adjustment hole 111 extending along the movement direction of the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110. A limiting hole 121 is provided on the sliding seat 120, and the locking member 151 passes through the adjustment hole 111 and is connected to the limiting hole 121 to lock and fix the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110. In this way, after the elastic member 140 provides an elastic force to the sliding seat 120 to move the sliding seat 120 relative to the fixed seat 110 to a proper position for tensioning the synchronous belt 210, by using the locking member 151 to pass through the adjustment hole 111 and connect to the limiting hole 121 on the sliding seat 120, the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110 can be locked and fixed, so that the synchronous belt 210 remains in the tensioned state after the tensioning operation, ensuring good motion accuracy of the belt transmission device 200 and improving the printing quality.

[0054] Furthermore, the adjustment hole 111 can be a long hole, a waist-shaped hole, etc. The extension length of the adjustment hole 111 ensures that the sliding seat 120 moves relative to the fixed seat 110 within a suitable range, so that the sliding seat 120 can move to a suitable position under the combined action of the elastic member 140 and the synchronous belt 210, realizing the tensioning operation of the synchronous belt 210.

[0055] Specifically, the locking member 151 can be a bolt, and the limiting hole 121 on the sliding seat 120 can be a threaded hole. The bolt is a standard part with a low cost, and the threaded hole is convenient to process with a low processing cost, which is suitable for popularization and application. It can be understood that the locking member 151 can also be other structures such as a pin.

[0056] Furthermore, the tensioning device 100 is applied to a three-dimensional forming device, which includes a frame. The fixed seat 110 is fixedly connected to the frame, or the fixed seat 110 and the frame are integrally formed, so as to install the tensioning device 100 on the three-dimensional forming device through the connection between the fixed seat 110 and the frame.

[0057] Specifically, the fixed connection between the fixed seat 110 and the frame of the three-dimensional forming device can be understood as fastening the two together by non-detachable connection methods such as welding or detachable connection methods. That is to say, the fixed seat 110 and the frame can be fixedly connected by at least one of welding, bolt structure, plug-in structure, tenon and mortise structure, magnetic attraction structure, etc.

[0058] Among them, the fixed seat 110 and the frame are integrally formed, which simplifies the assembly process of the two and is beneficial to saving the manufacturing cost of the whole machine.

[0059] As shown in Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown, in some possible implementation embodiments provided by the present invention, a guide rail 123 is provided or formed on one of the sliding seat 120 and the fixed seat 110, and a guiding member 112 is provided or formed on the other. The guiding member 112 and the guide rail 123 are movably connected, so that the sliding seat 120 can slide relative to the fixed seat 110.

[0060] In this embodiment, the arrangement of the guide rail 123 and the guiding member 112 plays a good guiding role in the movement of the sliding seat 120 relative to the fixed seat 110. Therefore, it can reduce the jumping and shaking during the sliding process of the sliding seat 120 relative to the fixed seat 110, reduce the possibility of the synchronous belt 210 shaking or jumping, improve the smoothness of the movement of the synchronous belt 210, and reduce the possibility of the synchronous belt 210 touching the two side edges of the tensioning wheel 130, which is beneficial to improving the service life of the synchronous belt 210.

[0061] Among them, the guide rail 123 can be located on the sliding seat 120, and the guiding member 112 can be located on the fixed seat 110. For example, if the guide rail 123 and the sliding seat 120 are of a split structure, the guide rail 123 is installed on the sliding seat 120, or if the guide rail 123 and the sliding seat 120 are of an integral structure, the guide rail 123 is formed on the sliding seat 120. Or, if the guiding member 112 and the fixed seat 110 are of a split structure, the guiding member 112 is installed on the fixed seat 110, or if the guiding member 112 and the fixed seat 110 are of an integral structure, the guiding member 112 is formed on the fixed seat 110.

[0062] In another example, the guiding member 112 can be located on the sliding seat 120, and the guide rail 123 can be located on the fixed seat 110. For example, if the guiding member 112 and the sliding seat 120 are of a split structure, the guiding member 112 is installed on the sliding seat 120, or if the guiding member 112 and the sliding seat 120 are of an integral structure, the guiding member 112 is formed on the sliding seat 120. Or, if the guide rail 123 and the fixed seat 110 are of a split structure, the guide rail 123 is installed on the fixed seat 110, or if the guide rail 123 and the fixed seat 110 are of an integral structure, the guide rail 123 is formed on the fixed seat 110.

[0063] In the above examples, the guide rail 123 can be a guide block, a guide post, a guiding protrusion, etc. For example Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the guide rail 123 is formed on the sliding seat 120, and the guiding member 112 is formed on the fixed seat 110.

[0064] In some possible embodiments provided by the present utility model, the elastic member 140 is in a compressed state. The first end of the elastic member 140 is relatively fixed to the fixed seat 110. For example, the first end of the elastic member 140 is directly connected to the fixed seat 110, or the first end of the elastic member 140 is indirectly connected to the fixed seat 110 through other structures. The second end of the elastic member 140 is connected to the sliding seat 120. The elastic member 140 is a spring, a spring sheet, or an elastic glue. Thus, the spring, the spring sheet, or the elastic glue can stably provide an elastic force to the sliding seat 120, so that the sliding seat 120 moves relative to the fixed seat 110 to a proper position under the action of the elastic member 140 and the synchronous belt 210, so that the tensioning wheel 130 provides a tensioning force to the synchronous belt 210 to achieve the tensioning operation of the synchronous belt 210. Specifically, the elastic glue can include urethane rubber, spring glue, polyurethane rod, etc.

[0065] In some possible embodiments provided by the present utility model, the elastic member 140 is in a stretched state, and the elastic member 140 is a tension spring. The first end of the tension spring is relatively fixed to the fixed seat 110. For example, the first end of the tension spring is directly connected to the fixed seat 110, or the first end of the tension spring is indirectly connected to the fixed seat 110 through other structures. The second end of the tension spring is connected to the sliding seat 120. Thus, the tension spring can stably provide an elastic force to the sliding seat 120, so that the sliding seat 120 moves to a suitable position relative to the fixed seat 110 under the action of the tension spring and the synchronous belt 210, so that the tension pulley 130 provides a tension force to the synchronous belt 210 to realize the tensioning operation of the synchronous belt 210.

[0066] In some possible embodiments provided by the present utility model, the elastic member 140 is in a torsional state, and the elastic member 140 is a torsion spring. The first torsion arm of the torsion spring is connected or abutted to the fixed seat 110, and the second torsion arm of the torsion spring is connected or abutted to the sliding seat 120. Thus, the torsion spring can stably provide an elastic force to the sliding seat 120, so that the sliding seat 120 moves to a suitable position relative to the fixed seat 110 under the action of the torsion spring and the synchronous belt 210, so that the tension pulley 130 provides a tension force to the synchronous belt 210 to realize the tensioning operation of the synchronous belt 210.

[0067] Such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown in

[0068] In some possible embodiments provided by the present utility model, the tensioning device 100 further includes: a connection cover 160, the connection cover 160 is detachably connected to the fixed seat 110, the elastic member 140 is a spring, and the first end of the spring is connected to the connection cover 160. The setting of the connection cover 160 enables the first end of the spring to be indirectly connected to the fixed seat 110 through the connection cover 160, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the elastic member 140, and further facilitates the maintenance of the elastic member 140. At the same time, the connection cover 160 can play a good role in covering and decorating the fixed seat 110 to improve the cleanliness and aesthetics of the appearance of the fixed seat 110.

[0069] Such as Figure 2 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, in some possible embodiments provided by the present utility model, the fixed seat 110 is provided with a first installation space 113 and a channel 114. The first end of the channel 114 communicates with the first installation space 113, and the second end of the channel 114 penetrates through the fixed seat 110 along the sliding direction of the sliding seat 120 relative to the fixed seat 110. The first installation space 113 is used to accommodate the sliding seat 120. The connecting cover 160 is located outside the fixed seat 110 and is used to cover the second end of the channel 114. The second end of the spring passes through the channel 114 and is connected to the sliding seat 120. Thus, the connection between the spring and the fixed seat 110 and the sliding seat 120 is realized, with a simple structure and convenient disassembly and assembly. At the same time, the setting of the channel 114 plays a good limiting role in the telescopic direction of the spring, which can further reduce the possibility of the sliding seat 120 shaking and jumping relative to the fixed seat 110, reduce the possibility of the synchronous belt 210 shaking or jumping, improve the smoothness of the movement of the synchronous belt 210, and reduce the possibility of the synchronous belt 210 touching the two side edges of the tensioning wheel 130, which is beneficial to improving the service life of the synchronous belt 210.

[0070] Among them, covering the second end of the channel 114 with the connecting cover 160 is beneficial to improving the cleanliness and aesthetics of the appearance of the fixed seat.

[0071] As Figure 2 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in some possible embodiments provided by the present utility model, the sliding seat 120 is provided with an accommodation space 124 for accommodating the tensioning wheel 130. The tensioning device 100 further includes a first rotating shaft 170. The first rotating shaft 170 is connected to the sliding seat 120 and penetrates through the accommodation space 124. The tensioning wheel 130 is rotatably connected to the first rotating shaft 170, so that the tensioning wheel 130 is rotatably installed on the sliding seat 120. Specifically, the first rotating shaft 170 can be a connecting shaft, a pin shaft, etc. Specifically, a first installation hole 126 is provided on the sliding seat 120, and the first rotating shaft 170 penetrates through the first installation hole 126 and is installed on the sliding seat 120.

[0072] Among them, a connection hole 125 is provided on one side of the sliding seat 120 facing the channel 114. The second end of the spring is connected to the sliding seat 120 through the connection hole 125, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly. Specifically, hooks can be provided on the hole wall of the connection hole 125, and the second end of the spring can be hooked on the hooks to realize the connection with the sliding seat 120.

[0073] Such as 1 to Figure 8As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the second aspect of the present utility model provides a belt drive device 200, which is applied to a stereolithography apparatus. The belt drive device 200 includes: a synchronous belt 210; and a tensioning device 100 of any one of the embodiments in the first aspect. Since the belt drive device 200 includes the tensioning device 100 of any one of the embodiments in the first aspect, it has all the technical effects of the aforementioned tensioning device 100, which will not be elaborated here one by one.

[0074] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in some possible embodiments provided by the present utility model, the synchronous belt 210 corresponds to the tensioning device 100, that is, one synchronous belt 210 corresponds to one tensioning device 100, so as to use the tensioning device 100 to perform a tensioning operation on the corresponding synchronous belt 210.

[0075] Among them, the number of the synchronous belts 210 and the tensioning devices 100 is one or more and the numbers are equal. For example, the number of the synchronous belts 210 can be one, two, three, or four. One synchronous belt 210 is connected to one driven part to drive the corresponding driven part to move in the XY plane. Thus, the number of the synchronous belts 210 can be reasonably set to drive different numbers of belt-driven parts 222 to move in the XY plane to meet the requirements of different structures of the belt drive device 200, and the application range is wide.

[0076] In the above embodiment, when the number of the synchronous belts 210 is multiple, the number of the tensioning devices 100 is equal to the number of the synchronous belts 210 to perform a tensioning operation on the corresponding synchronous belts 210. Among them, the multiple synchronous belts 210 are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the tensioning pulley 130 of the tensioning device 100. The axial direction of the tensioning pulley 130 is as Figure 3 and Figure 5 shown by the arrow Z in the figure, that is to say, the multiple synchronous belts 210 are spaced apart at different heights parallel to the XY plane, so that the movements of the multiple synchronous belts 210 do not interfere with each other, and the movements of different driven parts in different planes parallel to the XY plane can be realized.

[0077] In some possible embodiments provided by the present utility model, the fixed seats 110 of two adjacent tensioning devices 100 among the multiple tensioning devices 100 are detachably connected or integrated into an integral structure.

[0078] In this embodiment, by connecting the fixed seats 110 of two adjacent tensioning devices 100, the structural layout of the entire belt transmission device 200 is made compact, meeting the design requirements of a compact structure and small volume for the belt transmission device 200. Meanwhile, the three-dimensional forming device further includes a base. With this arrangement, by connecting one of the connected fixed seats 110 to the base of the three-dimensional forming device, the fixed connection of multiple fixed seats 110 to the base can be achieved. Compared with individually connecting each fixed seat 110 to the base, the disassembly and assembly arrangement is simplified, which is conducive to improving the disassembly and assembly efficiency of the three-dimensional forming device, and is also conducive to improving production efficiency and maintenance efficiency.

[0079] Among them, the fixed seats 110 of two adjacent tensioning devices 100 can be detachably connected through at least one of a bolt structure, a clamping structure, a plugging structure, a mortise and tenon structure, and a magnetic attraction mechanism. With this setting, when one of the fixed seats 110 fails, the two can be disassembled and separated for maintenance, which is conducive to reducing the cost of replacing parts.

[0080] Among them, the fixed seats 110 of two adjacent tensioning devices 100 can be of an integral structure. In this way, it is convenient for processing, easy for production, and simplifies the connection and assembly steps of two adjacent fixed seats 110. It can be understood that part of the two adjacent fixed seats 110 can also be set as an integral structure, and the other part can be set as a split structure.

[0081] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in some possible embodiments provided by the present utility model, the belt transmission device 200 further includes: a driving part 220 and an idler pulley 230. The driving part 220 and the idler pulley 230 are installed on the frame of the three-dimensional forming device. The driving part 220 includes a synchronous pulley 221. The synchronous belt 210 is sleeved and connected to the synchronous pulley 221, the idler pulley 230, and the tensioning pulley 130 of the tensioning device 100. Thus, the driving of the synchronous belt 210 is realized, and the synchronous belt 210 is connected to the tensioning device 100.

[0082] Furthermore, as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, the driving part 220 further includes a driving member 222. The driving member 222 is connected to the synchronous pulley 221 to drive the synchronous pulley 221 to rotate. Specifically, the driving member 222 can be a motor.

[0083] Among them, the driving part 220 and the idle pulley 230 are installed on the frame of the three-dimensional forming device. The frame of the three-dimensional forming device provides an installation space and an installation position for the driving part 220 and the idle pulley 230, simplifies the setting of the installation structure of the driving part 220 and the idle pulley 230, and can meet the design requirements of the belt transmission device 200 with a compact structure and a small volume.

[0084] Further, as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, the belt transmission device 200 further includes a second connecting member 250. The driving part 220 is installed on the frame of the three-dimensional forming device through the second connecting member 250. If the second connecting member 250 is a bolt and the driving member 222 of the driving part 220 is a motor, the motor is installed on the frame of the three-dimensional forming device through the bolt.

[0085] In some possible embodiments provided by the present utility model, the frame of the three-dimensional forming device is provided with a second installation space 115 for accommodating the idle pulley 230. The belt tensioning device 100 further includes a second rotating shaft 240. The second rotating shaft 240 is connected to the fixed seat 110 and passes through the second installation space 115. The idle pulley 230 is rotatably connected to the second rotating shaft 240. Thus, the idle pulley 230 is rotatably installed on the frame. Specifically, the second rotating shaft 240 can be a connecting shaft, a pin shaft, etc. Specifically, the frame of the three-dimensional forming device is provided with a second installation hole communicating with the second installation space 115, and the second rotating shaft 240 passes through the second installation hole and is installed on the frame.

[0086] Among them, the first installation space 113 and the channel 114 of the fixed seat 110 are located on both sides of the second installation space 115. This kind of setting makes the tensioning pulley 130 on the sliding seat 120 accommodated in the first installation space 113, the idle pulley 230 in the second installation space 115, and the elastic member 140 in the channel 114 be approximately in the same height range in the vertical direction, so as to reduce the possibility of the synchronous belt 210 jumping or shaking and improve the smoothness of the movement of the synchronous belt 210. It can be understood that in some examples, as Figure 6 shown, the frame and the fixed seat 110 can be an integrally formed structure, or the frame and the fixed seat 110 can be fixedly connected.

[0087] As Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the third aspect of the present utility model provides a three-dimensional forming device, including: a component to be driven, and the belt transmission device 200 of any one of the embodiments in the second aspect. The component to be driven is driven to move by a synchronous belt 210. Since the three-dimensional forming device includes the belt transmission device 200 of any one of the foregoing embodiments, it has all the technical effects of the foregoing belt transmission device 200, which will not be elaborated herein one by one.

[0088] In some possible embodiments provided by the present utility model, the three-dimensional forming device further includes: a frame. The fixed seat 110 of the belt transmission device 200 is installed on the frame. The belt transmission device 200 drives the component to be driven to move relative to the frame. Specifically, the belt transmission device 200 drives the component to be driven to move relative to the frame in the XY plane.

[0089] Wherein, the number of components to be driven can be one, two, three, or other numbers. The component to be driven includes at least one of a printing platform and a print head. Alternatively, the component to be driven can also include other structures.

[0090] For example, when the number of components to be driven is one and the component to be driven includes a printing platform or a print head, there is one synchronous belt 210 of the belt transmission device 200, and the number of tensioning devices 100 is one, so as to realize the movement of the printing platform or the print head relative to the frame in the XY plane.

[0091] As Figure 1 shown, when the number of components to be driven is two and the components to be driven include a printing platform and a print head, there are two synchronous belts 210 of the belt transmission device 200, and the number of tensioning devices 100 is two. The two synchronous belts 210 respectively realize the movement of the printing platform and the print head relative to the frame in the XY plane.

[0092] Wherein, in this case, the frame can be formed with two second installation spaces 115 in the vertical direction. The vertical direction can be as shown by the arrow Z in Figure 3 and Figure 5 . The two second installation spaces 115 are used to respectively accommodate the idler pulleys 230 of the two belt transmission devices 200.
