[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0023] like Figure 1-Figure 4 A storage box for 3D printing wire shown in FIG, includes a box body 2, interlayers 3 are provided on both sides of the box body 2, a drive motor 19 is fixedly provided inside the interlayer 3 on one side of the box body 2, the drive shaft of the drive motor 19 is fixedly connected to a driving wheel 8, a drive belt 9 is provided in the groove on the driving wheel 8, and the driving wheel 8 is connected to a driven wheel 10 through the drive belt 9, a fixed block 23 is fixed inside the interlayer 3 on the other side of the box body 2, four limit rods 5 are slidingly provided inside the box body 2, sliders 14 are provided on both sides of the limit rods 5, a traction rope 13 is fixedly connected to the slider 14, and rotating blocks 15 are rotatably provided on both sides of the box body 2, and the end of the traction rope 13 away from the slider 14 is wound around the rotating block 15.
[0024] In a preferred embodiment, sliding grooves 4 are fixedly provided on both sides of the box body 2, and the slider 14 is slidably arranged on the sliding groove 4. The slider can slide in one direction through the sliding groove 4, making the structure more stable.
[0025] In a preferred embodiment, a spring 12 is provided inside the sliding groove 4, and the spring 12 is sleeved on the traction rope 13. One end of the spring 12 is fixedly provided on the side wall of the sliding groove 4, and the other end of the spring 12 is fixedly provided at one end of the slider 14. Pulling the traction rope 13 in the sliding groove 4 causes the spring 12 to contract, thereby limiting and fixing the wire. Loosening the traction rope 13 causes the spring 12 to spread out quickly, allowing the wire to be quickly taken out.
[0026] In a preferred embodiment, four grooves are provided on the rotating block 15, and the four traction ropes 13 are respectively wound in the four grooves on the rotating block 15. A tightening bolt 16 is fixedly provided on the rotating block 15, and a handle 22 is fixedly provided on the rotating block 15. By turning the handle 22, the traction ropes 13 in the grooves of the rotating block 15 are wound, so that the traction ropes 13 are separated by the grooves and will not be entangled, which also facilitates operation.
[0027] The embodiment is specifically as follows: when in use, the wire coil is first put on the T-blocks 18 on both sides and fixed in position, the handle 22 is turned to make the rotating block 15 rotate in one direction, so that the traction rope 13 is wound along the groove on the rotating block 15, and the slider 14 is pulled, so that the slider 14 slides in one direction along the sliding groove 4, and the spring 12 is also contracted, and the limiting rod 5 also limits the wire coil in four directions as the sliders 14 on both sides of the box body 2 slide. Then, the tightening bolt 16 is fixed to fix the rotating block 14, so that the rotating block 14 is fixed. When the wire coil is replaced, the tightening bolt 16 is loosened, the contracted spring 12 is automatically expanded, and the slider 14 is pushed to a fixed point, so that the traction rope 13 connected to the slider 14 is subjected to a tension, so that the traction rope in the groove of the rotating block 15 automatically slides out, so that the limiting rod 5 can be quickly moved away, the structure is simpler, the operation is more convenient and quick, and the operation time is saved, and the wire coil discharging is more stable.
[0028] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 The storage box for 3D printing wire shown in the figure includes a box body 2, and the driven wheel 10 and the fixed block 23 are respectively fixedly provided with a mounting plate 11 at one end, and a T-slot 20 is fixedly provided at one end of the mounting plate 11. A T-block 18 is slidably provided inside the T-slot 20, and a mounting hole 21 is penetrated at one end of the T-block 18, and a tightening block 17 is penetrated at one end of the mounting hole 21.
[0029] In a preferred embodiment, one end of the mounting hole 21 is provided with a thread, and one end of the tightening block 17 is fixedly provided with a thread matching the mounting hole 21. A circular groove is provided at the center of the T-slot 20, and one end of the tightening block 17 cooperates with the circular groove. The tightening block 17 is rotated so that the thread on the tightening block 17 and the thread on the mounting hole 21 are locked with each other, so that the center of the wire is fixed and the wire discharge is more stable.
[0030] In a preferred embodiment, a ventilation groove 6 is fixedly provided at one end of the box body 2, and baffles 7 are slidably provided at both ends of the ventilation groove 6. A discharge port 1 is fixedly provided on one side of the box body 2. Moisture-proof items can be placed inside the ventilation groove 6. The baffle 7 is closed to increase the dryness of the wire, thereby increasing the use time of the wire.
[0031] The specific implementation method is as follows: when in use, first loosen the tightening blocks 17 on both sides of the box body 2 through the thread, so that one end of the tightening block 17 exits the circular hole in the center of the T-slot 20, so that the T-block 18 and the tightening block 17 can slide out of the T-slot 20 together, then slide the tightening block 17 out of the T-block 18, and then after the wire coil is assembled, align the tightening block 17 with the mounting hole 21 in the center of the T-block and slide it in, then align the T-block 18 with the T-slot 20 for sliding matching, then align one end of the tightening block 17 with the circular groove in the center of the T-slot 20, and tighten the tightening block 17 through the thread, which plays a left and right role in tightening the wire coil. The extrusion effect further fixes the wire coil and makes the structure more stable and safe. When the wire coil needs to be replaced, the two different wire positions inside the box body 2 can be replaced. When the wire coil needs to be discharged, one end of the wire is passed through the discharge port, and the drive motor 19 is started, so that the active wheel 8 drives the driven wheel to rotate through the drive belt 9, thereby causing the mounting plate 11, T-block 18 and tightening block 17 to drive the wire coil to rotate, so that the wire can be discharged at a uniform speed. When stored, moisture-proof materials can be placed in the ventilation slot 6 and the baffle 7 can be closed to increase the dryness of the wire coil, making the storage time longer.
[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely 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 will be able to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein with equivalents. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
