[0015] Please see Figures 1-7 The present invention provides a technical solution: an automatic waste collection base for a 3D printer, including a frame 1. The bottom of the frame 1 is symmetrically equipped with bases 2 on both sides. Each of the two sets of bases 2 has a slide rail 201 and a slide rail 202 on the opposite side. The slide rail 202 is located above the slide rail 201. A collection box 3 is slidably connected to the opposite side of the two sets of bases 2. A partition is processed in the middle of the collection box 3 to divide the collection box 3 into a large part box 301 and a small part box 302.
[0016] Two cleaning components are installed on the inner wall of the frame 1. The cleaning components include an electric push rod 4. The fixed end of the electric push rod 4 is fixedly connected to the frame 1, and the output end of the electric push rod 4 is fixedly connected to a push plate 5.
[0017] A shelf 6 is provided on one side of the two sets of bases 2 facing each other. A 3D printer is provided on the shelf 6. The 3D printer is fixedly connected to the frame 1. The 3D printer is existing technology.
[0018] A lead screw 7 is provided below the shelf 6. The shelf 6 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 7. Both ends of the lead screw 7 are provided with limit rods 8, which pass through the shelf 6. Both ends of the limit rods 8 are fixedly connected to the frame 1. The front end of the lead screw 7 is connected to the bearing of the frame 1. The rear end of the lead screw 7 is connected to a motor 9, which is fixedly connected to the frame 1.
[0019] A recycling assembly is provided on one side of each of the two sets of bases 2, located below the shelf 6. The recycling assembly includes a filter plate 10, which is located above the small parts box 302. The filter plate 10 is fixedly connected to the base 2, and a baffle 17 is provided above the filter plate 10 (e.g., Figure 3 As shown), the two sets of slide rails 202 are respectively equipped with lead screw 11 and limit rod 12. Lead screw 11 is threadedly connected to baffle 17, and limit rod 12 is slidably connected to baffle 17. Both ends of limit rod 12 are fixedly connected to frame 1. Motor 16 is installed in slide rail 202 with lead screw 11. One end of lead screw 11 is connected to the bearing of frame 1, and the other end is fixedly connected to the output end of motor 16.
[0020] A filter plate 13 is installed below filter plate 10. Filter plate 13 is fixedly connected to base 2. Baffle 18 is installed between filter plate 10 and filter plate 13. Screw 3 14 and limit rod 3 15 are respectively installed in two sets of slide rails 201. Screw 3 14 is threadedly connected to baffle 2 18, and limit rod 3 15 is slidably connected to baffle 2 18. Both ends of limit rod 3 15 are fixedly connected to frame 1. Motor 3 (not shown in the figure) is installed in slide rail 201 where screw 3 14 is installed. One end of screw 3 14 is connected to bearing of frame 1, and the other end is fixedly connected to output end of motor 3.
[0021] The diameter of the filter holes in filter plate 213 is smaller than that in filter plate 10.
[0022] Working principle: After the normal printing process is completed, the staff removes the printed object from the top of the shelf 6, starts the motor 9, drives the lead screw 7 to rotate, and the lead screw 7 drives the shelf 6 to move, so that the shelf 6 moves above the small parts box 302. The moving principle of the shelf 6 is the existing technology.
[0023] Start the electric push rod 4, which drives the push plate 5 to move, causing the push plate 5 to push the remaining waste material on the shelf 6 off.
[0024] The waste slides down the surface of the base 2 to the recycling assembly. Part of the waste passes through the filter holes of filter plate 10 and filter plate 23 and falls into the small parts box 302. The other part of the waste falls above filter plate 10 and filter plate 23 respectively.
[0025] Motors 2 and 3 are started, and motors 2 and 3 drive lead screws 2 and 3 to move respectively. Lead screws 2 and 3 drive baffles 1 and 2 to move respectively. During the movement, baffles 1 and 2 push the waste material remaining on filter plates 1 and 2 to move, destroying the static structure of the residual particles. This allows smaller waste material to continue to pass through the filter screen and fall into the small parts box 302, while larger waste material that cannot pass through the filter screen is pushed by the baffles into the large parts box 301.
[0026] Furthermore, the staff removed the collection box 3 and sorted the waste materials of different volumes. The filter screen was used to achieve the classified recycling of waste materials of different volumes.
[0027] By setting up filter plate 10 and filter plate 2 13, the waste is classified in a gradient manner, which avoids the blockage of a single filter screen by large waste, and further improves the classification efficiency.
[0028] Furthermore, when printing fails, it is necessary to recycle the large-volume waste. Therefore, the motor 9 controls the placement plate 6 to move above the large item box 301, driving the electric push rod 4 so that the push plate 5 directly pushes the large waste from the placement plate 6 and the large waste falls directly into the large item box 301, achieving efficient recycling.
