Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of 3D printing concrete devices, and specifically relates to a novel concrete 3D printing device. Background Technique
[0002] The 3D printing concrete device is the key equipment to realize the 3D printing concrete technology. This device is mainly composed of a control system, a printing system, a material conveying system, etc. The control system is responsible for receiving design data, controlling the movement trajectory and speed of the printing system, and ensuring the printing accuracy and efficiency. The printing system stacks the pre-configured concrete material layer by layer through a nozzle to form the designed concrete structure. The material conveying system is responsible for conveying the concrete material from the storage device to the printing system to ensure the continuity of printing.
[0003] For example, a concrete 3D printer in Chinese Patent (CN219788702U) is characterized by including: a cylindrical barrel, a conical barrel, a flange, two barrel support components, two groups of mutually perpendicular guide rails, a guide rail frame, four X-axis running wheels, four Y-axis running wheels, and a gas distributor.

In addition, the printing material is not restricted, and local materials can be used, which is convenient, simple, and efficient, and has appropriate accuracy. In addition, the material feeding is uniform, and the diameter and shape of the discharge strip can be adjusted. Therefore, it can be applied to a rich variety of application scenarios. In addition, it also has a wide range of uses in public facility construction and other aspects.
[0004] The above solution still has the following technical deficiencies.

[0040] The working principle of the above embodiment is as follows:
[0041] When concrete needs to be printed, add the concrete into the cylinder body 1 through the feeding pipe. Start the motor 207. The output shaft of the motor 207 rotates to drive the rotating shaft 208 and the stirring rod 209 to rotate. The stirring rod 209 stirs the concrete. Then open the valve 203 and start the pump body 202. The pump body 202 pumps the concrete in the cylinder body 1 into the discharge pipe 201. Then the concrete enters the cavity through the hose 204. Finally, the concrete is ejected from the printing nozzle 8 under the action of gravity and the extrusion of other concrete, realizing the printing of concrete. When the outdoor temperature is relatively low, the electric heating tube 205 can be started. The electric heating tube 205 generates heat to compensate the heat of the concrete in the cavity. After the concrete is printed, start the electric heating wire 403 and the fan 402. The fan 402 pumps the outside air into the installation box 401. The electric heating wire 403 heats the pumped air. At the same time, the fan 402 extracts the heated air from the bottom of the installation box 401. The extracted hot air is blown towards the concrete under the guidance of the air deflector 404, realizing the rapid drying of the concrete.
