Technical Field

[0003] This application relates to 3D printing technology, and more particularly to a 3D print head and a 3D printer. Background Technology

[0004] When printing products, 3D printers sometimes need to use different types or colors of filament.

[0005] In the traditional 3D printing process, when it is necessary to switch to different types or colors of filament, the filament needs to be cut and the new filament needs to be connected to the 3D print head. The molten filament in the hot end component of the 3D print head also needs to be discharged, resulting in low processing efficiency of the 3D printer and waste of filament. Summary of the Invention

[0006] This application provides a 3D print head and a 3D printer. The 3D print head has a first hot end component and a second hot end component. The 3D print head can switch between different hot end components to switch the feed line, thereby improving the processing efficiency of the 3D printer. A lifting mechanism is used to connect with at least one of the first hot end component and the second hot end component. The lifting mechanism collides with the collision mechanism of the shell on which the 3D print head is located, so that the lifting mechanism passively drives at least one of the first hot end component and the second hot end component to rise and fall. The lifting mechanism does not require motor drive, which can reduce the size and weight of the 3D print head, thereby increasing the movement speed of the 3D print head.

[0017] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one possible implementation, the upper surface of the plug is provided with a silicone sheet. When the first hot end assembly is in the first position, the silicone sheet contacts the second nozzle, and when the first hot end assembly is in the second position, the silicone sheet contacts the first nozzle.

[0018] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one possible implementation, the gear is provided with a circular magnet, and two sensors for detecting changes in the magnetic field are provided on the connecting frame, with both sensors located on the outer periphery of the circular magnet and the two sensors being placed perpendicularly.

[0023] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one possible implementation, at least one of the abutment and the first base is magnetic, and the abutment and the first base attract each other.

[0024] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one possible implementation, the abutment is magnetic, the first base is magnetic, and the magnetism of the side of the abutment facing the first base is different from the magnetism of the side of the first base facing the abutment.

[0050] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 1. This application provides a 3D printer 1. The 3D printer 1 may include a first extrusion assembly 11, a drive member 12, a guide member 14, and a 3D printing head 13. The first extrusion assembly 11 and the 3D printing head 13 are separated. The 3D printing head 13 is slidably disposed on the guide member 14, and the drive member 12 is connected to the 3D printing head 13 in a transmission connection.

[0052] Referring to Figure 2, the 3D printing head 13 includes a connecting frame 131, a first hot-end assembly 132, a second hot-end assembly 133, and a second extrusion assembly 134. The first hot-end assembly 132, the second hot-end assembly 133, and the second extrusion assembly 134 are connected to the connecting frame 131. The first extrusion assembly 11 drives the first feed line 2 to convey the first feed line 2 to the first hot-end assembly 132, and the second extrusion assembly 134 drives the second feed line 3 to convey the second feed line 3 to the second hot-end assembly 133. At least one of the first hot-end assembly 132 and the second hot-end assembly 133 is movably connected to the connecting frame 131. For example, the first hot-end assembly 132 is movably connected to the connecting frame 131, and the second hot-end assembly 133 is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 131. Alternatively, the first hot-end assembly 132 is movably connected to the connecting frame 131, and the second hot-end assembly 133 is also movably connected to the connecting frame 131.

[0053] In some feasible implementations, the guide 14 can be a carbon rod or a linear guide, and the connecting frame 131 is provided with a through hole for the carbon rod or linear guide to pass through, thereby realizing the sliding connection of the 3D printing head 13 to the guide 14.

[0054] In the embodiments provided in this application, the 3D printer 1 may further include a processing platform, on which the 3D print head 13 prints the product during printing. During the printing process, the first hot-end component 132 heats the first filament 2 to a molten state and then sprays the molten filament onto the processing platform to process the product. The second hot-end component 133 heats the second filament 3 to a molten state and then sprays the molten second filament 3 onto the processing platform to process the product. The processing platform can be raised and lowered; as the printed product gradually thickens during printing, the processing platform can gradually descend to ensure that the 3D print head 13 remains above the product. The above description pertains to core xy structure 3D printers. In some feasible implementations, in cantilever or gantry 3D printers, the first and second hot-end components can heat the filament to a molten state and spray it onto the processing platform. During the process of the hot-end components spraying the molten filament onto the processing platform, the processing platform can move along the y-axis, while the 3D print head moves up and down along the Z-axis and along the X-axis to achieve the processing of three-dimensional objects. The accompanying drawings of this application use a core xy structure 3D printer as an example and do not constitute a limitation on the 3D printer structure of this application. The solution of this application can be applied to other structures such as cantilever and gantry 3D printers.

[0055] The 3D printing head 13 can switch between using the first hot end assembly 132 and the second hot end assembly 133, thereby switching the material line ejected onto the processing platform to form a product. For example, a product can be formed by processing a first wire 2 and a second wire 3. By using the 3D printing head 13 to switch between the first hot end component 132 and the second hot end component 133, the first wire 2 and the second wire 3 can be melted alternately (wherein, the first hot end component 132 can heat the first wire 2 to make it molten, and the second hot end component 133 can heat the second wire 3 to make it molten). The first hot end component 132 sprays the molten first wire 2 onto the processing platform, and the second hot end component 133 sprays the molten second wire 3 onto the processing platform. The molten first wire 2 and the second hot end component 133 form a product on the processing platform, thereby improving processing efficiency and reducing waste. This is because by adding hot end components, different hot end components can be used to heat different wires. For example, heating wires of different colors eliminates the need to increase rinsing time and waste rinsing wire to clean the residue of the previous wire in the hot end component.

[0056] For example, when printing a product, the 3D printing head 13 ejects material through the first hot end assembly 132 or the second hot end assembly 133. The driving member 12 drives the 3D printing head 13 to move along a preset trajectory. The driving member 12 can drive the 3D printing head 13 to move along a first direction (e.g., the X-axis direction) or a second direction (e.g., the Y-axis direction). When the first hot end assembly 132 is ejecting the first molten material line 2, the 3D printing head 13 moves along a portion of the preset trajectory. When the second hot end assembly 133 is ejecting the second molten material line 3, the 3D printing head 13 moves along another portion of the preset trajectory.

[0057] In the embodiments provided in this application, when the first hot-end assembly 132 is in the sprayed molten state of the first feed line 2, the first feed line 2 can be conveyed to the first hot-end assembly 132 by the first extrusion assembly 11. Specifically, referring to Figures 3 and 4, the first extrusion assembly 11 includes a first motor 111, an extrusion wheel 112, and an extrusion wheel 113. The first motor 111 is drivenly connected to the extrusion wheel 112. In some feasible embodiments, the first motor 111 can be drivenly connected to the extrusion wheel 113. Alternatively, the first motor 111 can be drivenly connected to both the extrusion wheel 112 and the extrusion wheel 113.

[0058] For example, the outer peripheral surface of extrusion wheel 112 may be spaced apart from the outer peripheral surface of extrusion wheel 113. A gap is formed between extrusion wheel 112 and extrusion wheel 113 for the first feed line 2 to pass through, and the first feed line 2 contacts the outer peripheral surfaces of both extrusion wheel 112 and extrusion wheel 113 simultaneously, with both outer peripheral surfaces jointly clamping the first feed line 2. First motor 111 drives extrusion wheel 112 to rotate, and the first feed line 2 is conveyed through the clamping friction of extrusion wheel 112 and extrusion wheel 113, for example, conveying the first feed line 2 from the first extrusion assembly 11 to the first hot end assembly 132. Alternatively, first motor 111 drives extrusion wheel 112 and extrusion wheel 113 simultaneously, and the first feed line 2 is conveyed to the first hot end assembly 132 through the clamping and conveying of the first feed line 2 by extrusion wheel 112 and extrusion wheel 113.

[0059] When the second hot end assembly 133 is in the sprayed molten state of the second feed line 3, the second feed line 3 can be conveyed to the second hot end assembly 133 through the second extrusion assembly 134. Referring to Figure 5, the second extrusion assembly 134 includes a second motor 1341, an extrusion wheel 1342, and an extrusion wheel 1343. The second motor 1341 is used to drive the extrusion wheel 1342 to rotate. The outer peripheral surface of the extrusion wheel 1342 is spaced apart from the outer peripheral surface of the extrusion wheel 1343. The gap between the outer peripheral surfaces of the extrusion wheel 1342 and the extrusion wheel 1343 allows the second feed line 3 to pass through. The second feed line 3 is in contact with the outer peripheral surfaces of both the extrusion wheel 1342 and the extrusion wheel 1343 simultaneously, and the outer peripheral surfaces of both wheels together hold the second feed line 3. The second motor 1341 drives the extrusion wheel 1342 to rotate. The second material line 3 is conveyed through the clamping friction between the extrusion wheels 1342 and 1343, for example, conveying the second material line 3 from the second extrusion assembly 134 to the second hot end assembly 133. Alternatively, the second motor 1341 can simultaneously drive both the extrusion wheels 1342 and 1343 to rotate, conveying the second material line 3 to the second hot end assembly 133 through the clamping and conveying action of the extrusion wheels 1342 and 1343.

[0060] In this application, the 3D printer 1 has two extrusion components. The second extrusion component 134 is disposed in the 3D print head 13, that is, the second extrusion component 134 is disposed close to the second hot end component 133. The first extrusion component 11 is not disposed in the 3D print head 13, that is, the first extrusion component 11 is disposed relatively far from the first hot end component 132. It can be seen that the 3D printer provided in this application can include a dual hot end printer with one near-field extrusion and one far-field extrusion. When the drive member 12 drives the 3D print head 13, the first extrusion component 11 does not need to move with the 3D print head 13 on the guide member 14, which can reduce the output burden of the drive member 12 in driving the 3D print head 13. The fact that the first extrusion component 11 is not integrated into the 3D print head 13 can also reduce the size and weight of the 3D print head 13, avoid the 3D print head 13 being too bulky under the drive of the drive member 12, and improve the movement speed of the 3D print head 13 when printing products. Therefore, this application can achieve the benefits of dual-hot-end printers, such as improved processing efficiency and reduced waste, while avoiding the problems caused by existing dual-hot-end printers that place both extrusion components on the 3D print head, such as the 3D print head being too bulky and large, resulting in a decrease in the movement speed of the 3D print head 13 and a decrease in control precision.

[0061] In the embodiments provided in this application, the 3D printer 1 is also connected to a feeding device. The first hot end assembly 132 and the second hot end assembly 133 in the 3D print head 13 are respectively connected to the feeding device through the first feed tube 1a and the second feed tube 1b. The feeding device can accommodate the first feed line 2 and the second feed line 3. The feeding device can release the first feed line 2 and the second feed line 3. The first feed line 2 extends from the feeding device, passes through the first feed tube 1a, and is conveyed to the first hot end assembly 132 by the first extrusion assembly 11. The first hot end assembly 132 heats the first feed line 2 and sprays the molten first feed line 2. The first extrusion assembly 11 can drive the first feed line 2 and convey the first feed line 2 to the first hot end assembly 132. The second feed line 3 extends from the feeding device, passes through the second feed tube 1b, and is conveyed by the second extrusion assembly 134 to the second hot end assembly 133. The second hot end assembly 133 heats the second feed line 3 and sprays the molten second feed line 3. The second extrusion assembly 134 can drive the second feed line 3 and convey the second feed line 3 to the second hot end assembly 133.

[0062] In a 3D print head with dual hot-end components, the position of the hot-end component in the working state is lower than the position of the hot-end component in the idle state. For example, when the 3D print head 13 uses the first hot-end component 132 to spray the first molten material filament 2, the lowest point of the second hot-end component 133 is higher than the lowest point of the first hot-end component 132. During the movement of the 3D print head 13, the drive member 12 can prevent interference (e.g., collision) between the second hot-end component 133 and the product. When processing the product, the lowest point of the first hot-end component 132 is slightly higher than the product to improve processing accuracy. If the lowest point of the second hot-end component 133 is lower than the lowest point of the first hot-end component 132, the lowest point of the second hot-end component 133 may be lower than the product, causing interference between the 3D print head 13 and the product during movement.

[0063] When the 3D printing head 13 uses the second hot end component 133 to spray the second material line 3 in a molten state, the lowest point of the first hot end component 132 needs to be higher than the lowest point of the second hot end component 133. This can prevent the lowest point of the first hot end component 132 from being lower than the product. During the movement of the 3D printing head 13, interference (e.g., collision) between the first hot end component 132 and the product can be prevented.

[0064] In the embodiments provided in this application, the first hot-end component 132 is movably connected to the connecting frame 131, and the second hot-end component 133 is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 131. By changing the relative position of the first hot-end component 132 and the connecting frame 131, for example, by raising and lowering the first hot-end component 132 relative to the processing platform on the connecting frame 131, the relative height of the first hot-end component 132 and the second hot-end component 133 can be changed. For example, when the 3D printing head 13 uses the first hot-end component 132 to eject the first material line 2, the relative position of the first hot-end component 132 and the connecting frame 131 can be adjusted so that the lowest point of the first hot-end component 132 is lower than the lowest point of the second hot-end component 133. When the 3D printing head 13 uses the second hot-end component 133 to eject the second material line 3, the relative position of the first hot-end component 132 and the connecting frame 131 can be adjusted so that the lowest point of the first hot-end component 132 is higher than the lowest point of the second hot-end component 133. It is understood that the height difference between the first hot-end assembly 132 and the second hot-end assembly 133 is in the Z-axis direction. Implementing this application, the use of a liftable, movable first hot-end assembly 132 in conjunction with a remote extrusion assembly, such as a first extrusion assembly, ensures the printing effect of the fixed first hot-end assembly 132 and the near-field extrusion second hot-end assembly 133. This is particularly suitable for using the first hot-end assembly 132 to spray support material and the second hot-end assembly 133 to spray the main body components of the 3D product. This is because the first extrusion assembly 11 is relatively far from the first hot-end assembly 132, making it difficult to control the feed rate of the first material line 2 and guarantee print quality. However, it can be used to print support parts that need to be disassembled from the main body of the product, without affecting the appearance of the 3D product due to print quality issues.

[0065] In some embodiments, the 3D printing head 13 further includes a lifting mechanism 135 connected to the connecting frame 131. The lifting mechanism can be connected to at least one of the first hot end assembly 132 and the second hot end assembly 133. For example, referring to Figures 6 and 7, the 3D printing head 13 further includes a lifting mechanism 135 connected to the connecting frame 131. Figure 6 illustrates the connection of the lifting mechanism 135 to the first hot end assembly 132. Optionally, in some other embodiments, the lifting mechanism 135 can be connected to the second hot end assembly 133. The 3D printer 1 may also include a housing 15 and a collision mechanism 16. The lifting mechanism 135 includes a trigger 1351 for colliding with the collision mechanism 16 to move the hot end assembly movably connected to the connecting frame 131 up and down. The collision mechanism 16 is mounted on the housing 15.

[0066] In the embodiments provided in this application, the housing 15 may include a base 151, and a processing platform is connected to the base 151. For example, the processing platform may be connected to the base 151 via a lead screw or a slider. The 3D printing head 13 may move relative to the housing 15 along at least one of a first direction (e.g., the X-axis direction) and a second direction (e.g., the Y-axis direction), wherein the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0067] The lifting mechanism 135 is connected to the first hot-end component 132. The first hot-end component 132 and the second hot-end component 133 are spaced apart. The second hot-end component 133 is fixed to the connecting frame 131. The lifting mechanism 135 is used to drive the first hot-end component 132 to move up and down. The first hot-end component 132 moves up and down along the Z-axis. By driving the first hot-end component 132 to move up and down through the lifting mechanism 135, the height position of the first hot-end component 132 is changed, thereby changing the relative height position of the first hot-end component 132 and the second hot-end component 133. In another feasible implementation, the lifting mechanism 135 is connected to the first hot end component 132 and also to the second hot end component 133. When the lifting mechanism 135 raises the first hot end component 132, it also raises the second hot end component 133. When the lifting mechanism 135 raises the second hot end component 133, it also raises the first hot end component 132. The first hot end component 132 and the second hot end component 133 can be connected to the two ends of the lifting mechanism 135 respectively.

[0068] Please refer to Figures 9 and 10. In the embodiments provided in this application, the 3D printing head 13 further includes a connecting frame 131a that is detachably connected to the connecting frame 131. The lifting mechanism 135 can be rotatably connected to the connecting frame 131a. The lifting mechanism 135 can change the height position of the first hot end assembly 132 and the second hot end assembly 133 by rotating relative to the connecting frame 131a.

[0069] In the embodiments provided in this application, during the lifting and lowering movement of the first hot-end component 132, the trajectory of the first hot-end component 132 includes a first position and a second position. The first position is lower than the second position. The first position can be the lowest position of the first hot-end component 132 during the lifting and lowering movement. When the first hot-end component 132 is in the first position, it is used to spray molten printing material (first feed line 2). The second position can be the highest position of the first hot-end component 132 during the lifting and lowering movement. When the second hot-end component 133 is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 131, the first position is lower than the location of the second hot-end component 133, and the second position is higher than the location of the second hot-end component 133. When the first hot-end component 132 is in the second position, it is used to spray molten printing material (second feed line 3).

[0070] In some embodiments, referring to FIG8, the lifting mechanism 135 includes a gear 1352, and a rack 1321 is fixedly connected to the first hot end assembly 132. The gear 1352 meshes with the rack 1321. The lifting mechanism 135 also includes a first rotating shaft 1353, and a trigger 1351 includes a lever. The first rotating shaft 1353 passes through the gear 1352 and is fixed to the gear 1352. The trigger 1351 is fixedly connected to the first rotating shaft 1353. Specifically, one end of the lever is used to be fixedly connected to the first rotating shaft 1353, and the other end of the lever is used to collide with the collision mechanism 16.

[0071] When the lever collides with the collision mechanism 16, the lever is actuated. The lever drives the gear 1352 to rotate via the first rotating shaft 1353. During the rotation, the gear 1352 drives the rack 1321 to rise and fall, thereby driving the first hot end assembly 132 to rise and fall.

[0072] In some embodiments, the lifting mechanism 135 includes a drive wheel, a driven wheel, and a transmission belt. The drive wheel is connected to a trigger 1351, and the drive wheel and the driven wheel are connected by transmission belt. The trigger 1351 collides with the collision mechanism 16. The trigger 1351 can drive the drive wheel to rotate and drive the transmission belt to move up and down. The transmission belt can be connected to the first hot end assembly 132 and drive the first hot end assembly 132 to move up and down.

[0073] In some embodiments, the lifting mechanism 135 may include a cam and a push rod. The cam may be hinged to the push rod. The end of the push rod away from the cam is connected to the first hot end assembly 132. The cam is also connected to a trigger 1351. The trigger 1351 collides with the collision mechanism 16 to drive the cam to rotate. When the cam rotates, the end of the push rod away from the cam can move up and down in a straight line, thereby driving the first hot end assembly 132 to move up and down.

[0074] In some embodiments, the first hot-end component 132 is detachably connected to a first mounting position and a second mounting position of the connecting frame 131. When the first hot-end component 132 is detachably connected to the first mounting position, its position is lower than that of the second hot-end component 133. When the first hot-end component 132 is detachably connected to the second mounting position, its position is higher than that of the second hot-end component 133. When the first hot-end component 132 is detachably connected to the first mounting position, the 3D printing head 13 can use the first hot-end component 132 to spray molten printing material (first feed line 2). When the first hot-end component 132 is not mounted on the connecting frame 131 or is detachably connected to the second mounting position, the 3D printing head 13 can use the second hot-end component 133 to spray molten printing material (second feed line 3).

[0075] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 8, 9, and 10, the lifting mechanism 135 may include a gear 1352, a second rotating shaft 1354, a first connecting rod 1355, a second connecting rod 1356, and a third connecting rod 1357. A rack 1321 is fixed to the first hot-end assembly 132, and the gear 1352 meshes with the rack 1321. The trigger 1351 includes a lever. The first rotating shaft 1353 and the second rotating shaft 1354 are spaced apart. The first end of the first connecting rod 1355 is hinged to the first rotating shaft 1353, the second end of the first connecting rod 1355 is hinged to the first end of the second connecting rod 1356, the second end of the second connecting rod 1356 is hinged to the first end of the third connecting rod 1357, and the second end of the third connecting rod 1357 is hinged to the second rotating shaft 1354. The first rotating shaft 1353 and the second rotating shaft 1354 are rotatably connected to the connecting frame 131a. The first rotating shaft 1353, the second rotating shaft 1354, the first connecting rod 1355, the second connecting rod 1356, and the third connecting rod 1357 can form a five-bar linkage, which can limit the rotation angle of the gear 1352, improve the motion accuracy of the lifting mechanism 135, and make the rotation process of the gear 1352 more stable.

[0076] In some embodiments, the lifting mechanism 135 further includes a plug 1358 connected to the second connecting rod 1356; the first hot end assembly 132 includes a first nozzle 1322 and a first heating block 1323, the first heating block 1323 is used to heat the first feed line 2 to a molten state, and the first nozzle 1322 is used to spray the molten first feed line 2; the second hot end assembly 133 includes a second nozzle 1331 and a second heating block 1332, the second heating block 1332 is used to heat the second feed line 3 to a molten state, and the second nozzle 1331 is used to spray the molten second feed line 3; the first nozzle 1322 and the second nozzle 1331 are spaced apart, when the first hot end assembly 132 is in the first position, the plug 1358 blocks the second nozzle 1331, and when the first hot end assembly 132 is in the second position, the plug 1358 blocks the first nozzle 1322. The first hot-end assembly 132 sprays molten first filament 2 onto the processing platform through the first nozzle 1322, and the second hot-end assembly 133 sprays molten second filament 3 onto the processing platform through the second nozzle 1331. During the process of switching the hot-end assembly of the 3D print head 13 to spray printing material, the lifting mechanism 135 moves so that the position of the hot-end assembly that needs to spray printing material is lower than the position of the hot-end assembly in the idle state (when no printing material is needed). For example, in the 3D print head 13, if the first hot-end assembly 132 that needs to spray printing material is switched to the second hot-end assembly 133, the trigger 1351 can collide with the collision mechanism 16, causing the lifting mechanism 135 to lift the first hot-end assembly 132 to the second position. At the same time, the plug 1358, which moves with the second connecting rod 1356, moves to the bottom of the first hot-end assembly 132 and seals the first hot-end assembly 132. If the second hot end assembly 133 that needs to spray printing material is switched to the first hot end assembly 132, the trigger 1351 can collide with the collision mechanism 16, so that the lifting mechanism 135 drives the first hot end assembly 132 to the second position. At the same time, the plug 1358 that moves with the second link 1356 moves to the bottom of the second hot end assembly 133 and seals the second hot end assembly 133.

[0077] Specifically, when the trigger 1351 collides with the collision mechanism 16, the trigger 1351 is actuated, which in turn drives the first rotating shaft 1353 to rotate. The rotation of the first rotating shaft 1353 drives the first connecting rod 1355 to swing, which in turn drives the second connecting rod 1356 to swing. The swing of the second connecting rod 1356 drives the nozzle plug 1358 to move. At the same time, the rotation of the first rotating shaft 1353 also drives the gear 1352 to rotate. The gear 1352 meshes with the rack 1321, and the gear 1352 drives the rack 1321 to rise and fall along the Z-axis, thereby causing the entire first hot end assembly 132 to rise and fall. When the first hot end assembly 132 moves to the first position, the nozzle plug 1358 moves with the second connecting rod 1356 to the bottom of the second nozzle 1331 and blocks the second nozzle 1331, preventing the second nozzle 1331 from spraying out the molten second material line 3. When the first hot end assembly 132 moves to the second position, the plug 1358 moves with the second connecting rod 1356 to the bottom of the first nozzle 1322 and blocks the first nozzle 1322 to prevent the first nozzle 1322 from spraying out the first material line 2 in a molten state.

[0078] The upper surface of the plug 1358 is provided with a silicone sheet 1359. When the first hot end assembly 132 is in the first position, the silicone sheet 1359 is in contact with the second nozzle 1331. When the first hot end assembly 132 is in the second position, the silicone sheet 1359 is in contact with the first nozzle 1322.

[0079] For example, the silicone sheet 1359 can form a soft wrap around the nozzle when it is necessary to seal the nozzle. The silicone sheet 1359 can effectively seal the nozzle. For instance, when the first hot end assembly 132 is in the first position, the silicone sheet 1359 contacts the second nozzle 1331, effectively sealing the second nozzle 1331. When the first hot end assembly 132 is in the second position, the silicone sheet 1359 contacts the first nozzle 1322, effectively sealing the first nozzle 1322. In addition, the silicone sheet 1359 can provide soft contact between the plug and the nozzle, avoiding damage to the nozzle due to excessive stiffness.

[0080] In the embodiments provided in this application, please refer to Figure 11. The gear 1352 is provided with a circular magnet 13521. Two sensors 1311 for detecting changes in the magnetic field are provided on the connecting frame 131a, and both sensors 1311 are located on the outer periphery of the circular magnet 13521, with their orientation perpendicular to each other. The two sensors 1311 can be Hall sensors 1311. When the circular magnet 13521 rotates, the two sensors 1311 will generate pulse signals due to the change in the magnetic field. Since the two Hall sensors 1311 are placed at 90°, they can respectively sense the components of the rotating magnetic field in two orthogonal directions, and then obtain the rotation angle of the gear 1352 through mathematical calculation (usually an arctangent function). Exemplarily, the connecting frame 131a includes a circuit board, and the two sensors 1311 can be placed on the circuit board. For example, the rotation angle of gear 1352 can be obtained by two sensors to determine whether the first shaft 1353 and the second shaft 1354 have rotated into place, thereby knowing whether the first hot end assembly 132 and the second hot end assembly 133 are in the right position.

[0081] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 8 and 12, the 3D printing head 13 further includes a first base 137 detachably connected to the first hot-end assembly 132, the first base 137 being slidably connected to the connecting frame 131a; and / or, the 3D printing head 13 further includes a second base 138 detachably connected to the second hot-end assembly 133, the second base 138 being fixedly connected to the connecting frame 131a. The connecting frame 131a is movably connected to the first hot-end assembly 132 via the first base 137, and the connecting frame 131a is detachably connected to the second hot-end assembly 133 via the second base 138.

[0082] Specifically, one of the first base 137 and the connecting frame 131a is provided with a slide rail 1312 and the other is provided with a slide groove 1371, with the slide rail 1312 and the slide groove 1371 slidingly engaged.

[0083] In one feasible implementation, the first base 137 is provided with a slide rail 1312, and the connecting frame 131a is provided with a slide groove 1371, with the slide rail 1312 and the slide groove 1371 slidingly engaged. In another feasible implementation, the first base 137 is provided with a slide groove 1371, and the connecting frame 131a is provided with a slide rail 1312, with the slide rail 1312 and the slide groove 1371 slidingly engaged.

[0084] The connecting bracket 131a is provided with an abutment member 1313, which is disposed above the first base 137, and the first base 137 is in movable contact with the abutment member 1313. The abutment member 1313 is used to limit the extreme position of the first hot end assembly 132, wherein the extreme position of the first hot end assembly 132 can be a second position.

[0085] At least one of the abutment 1313 and the first base 137 is magnetic, and the other may have opposite magnetism or be metallic, so that the abutment 1313 and the first base 137 attract each other. Specifically, when the first hot end assembly 132 is in the second position, the abutment 1313 and the first base 137 are magnetically attracted, which allows the first hot end assembly 132 to remain stable in the second position, or when the first hot end assembly is still a little short of reaching the second position, the abutment 1313 can provide an attractive force to the first base 137, so that the first base 137 can move into position. In the embodiment provided in this application, during the process of the trigger 1351 colliding with the collision mechanism 16 to move the first hot end assembly 132 from the second position to the first position, the trigger 1351 contacts the contact area of ​​the rod in the collision mechanism 16. Since the position of the contact area is lower than the position of the central axis of the rod. The collision mechanism 16 can apply a downward force to the trigger 1351 to overcome the steady state of the first hot end assembly 132 in the second position and do work, so that the first hot end assembly 132 switches from the second position to the first position.

[0086] The abutment 1313 is magnetic, and the first base 137 is magnetic. The magnetism of the side of the abutment 1313 facing the first base 137 is different from the magnetism of the side of the first base 137 facing the abutment 1313; or, one of the abutment 1313 and the first base 137 is magnetic, and the other is metallic. If one of the abutment 1313 and the first base 137 is metallic, the metal can be iron, iron-containing alloys, nickel, nickel-containing alloys, cobalt, and cobalt-containing alloys, etc.

[0087] Please refer to Figures 13 and 14. The connecting frame 131a is equipped with a first magnet 1314 and a second magnet 1315, and the second connecting rod 1356 is equipped with a third magnet 13561 or metal. When the first hot end assembly 132 is in the first position, the second magnet 1315 and the third magnet 13561 or metal of the second connecting rod 1356 are magnetically attracted, which can keep the first hot end assembly 132 in a stable state in the first position, so that the first hot end assembly 132 can spray a molten material line in a stable state. When the first hot end assembly is in the second position, the first magnet 1314 and the third magnet 13561 or metal of the second connecting rod 1356 are magnetically attracted, which can keep the first hot end assembly 132 in a stable state in the second position. When the second hot end assembly 133 sprays the molten material line 3, it can prevent the first hot end assembly 132 from descending and interfering with the product, thus affecting the product processing progress.

[0088] In some embodiments, the plug 1358 and the third magnet 13561 are located on opposite sides of the second link 1356, and the third magnet 13561 is closer to the connecting frame 131a in the Z-axis direction than the plug 1358.

[0089] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG10, a first base 137 connects at least one of a power line 1c and a signal line 1d; the first base 137 is provided with a wire tie 1372 for fixing at least one of the power line 1c and the signal line 1d. The wire tie 1372 can fix the power line 1c and the signal line 1d, preventing them from tangling. When the first hot end assembly 132 moves up and down, the power line 1c and the signal line 1d move up and down with the first base 137, preventing the first hot end assembly 132 from pulling on the power line 1c or the signal line 1d during the up and down process, thus avoiding damage to the power line 1c or the signal line 1d.

[0090] In the embodiments provided in this application, please refer to FIG15. The 3D printing head 13 also includes an extrusion front shell 139, which is detachably connected to the connecting frame 131.

[0091] In the 3D printing head 13 provided in this application, please refer to Figure 16. The first hot end assembly 132 further includes a first feed channel 1324 and a first heat sink 1325 disposed below or around the first feed channel 1324. A first heating block 1323 is connected between the first feed channel 1324 and the first nozzle 1322. The 3D printing head 13 also includes a second fan 13a, which blows air toward the first heat sink 1325. The first feed channel 1324 is used for the first feed filament 2 to pass through and extend into the location of the first heating block 1323. The first heating block 1323 heats the first feed filament 2 to a molten state, and the first nozzle 1322 sprays the molten first feed filament 2 onto the processing platform. While heating the first feed line 2, the first heating block 1323 also transfers heat to the first feed channel 1324. To prevent the first feed line 2 from softening due to excessive temperature in the first feed channel 1324, the second fan 13a blows air onto the first heat sink 1325, allowing it to quickly dissipate heat and rapidly reduce the temperature of the first feed channel 1324. If the temperature of the first feed channel 1324 becomes too high and prematurely softens the first feed line 2, it will hinder the feeding of the first feed line 2 and easily clog the first feed channel 1324.

[0092] The second hot end assembly 133 also includes a second feed channel 1333 and a second heat sink 1334 disposed below or around the second feed channel 1333. A second heating block 1332 is connected between the second feed channel 1333 and the second nozzle 1331. The 3D printing head 13 also includes a third fan 13b, which blows air toward the second heat sink 1334. The second feed channel 1333 is used for the second feed filament 3 to pass through and extend into the location of the second heating block 1332. The second heating block 1332 heats the second feed filament 3 to a molten state, and the second nozzle 1331 sprays the molten second feed filament 3 onto the processing platform. While heating the second feed line 3, the second heating block 1332 also transfers heat to the second feed channel 1333. To prevent the second feed line 3 from softening prematurely due to excessive temperature in the second feed channel 1333, the second fan 13a blows air onto the second heat sink 1334, allowing it to quickly dissipate heat and rapidly reduce the temperature of the second feed channel 1333. If the temperature of the second feed channel 1333 becomes too high and the second feed line 3 softens prematurely, it will hinder the conveying of the second feed line 3 and easily clog the first feed channel 1324.

[0093] In the embodiments provided in this application, the outer shell 15 surrounds and forms a build space. Specifically, the outer shell 15 may further include a frame, which is connected to the base 151. The 3D printing head 13 and the guide 14 are disposed within the build space. The guide 14 is connected to the outer shell 15, and the first extrusion assembly 11 is detachably disposed on the outer shell 15. The guide 14 is specifically connected to the frame.

[0094] The 3D printer 1 can be a corexy structure, with the guide 14 supported by a frame on the 3D printer 1. The 3D print head 13 can move along the guide 14 in the XY plane under the drive of a belt. The processing platform is connected to a Z-axis lead screw to achieve movement in the Z-axis direction. For example, the guide 14 can be at least one of a Y-axis linear guide, a carbon rod, and an X-axis optical axis. Optionally, the 3D printer 1 can also be a cantilever structure, with the guide 14 supported by a Z-axis column. The guide 14 moves up and down along the Z-axis, the 3D print head 13 can move along the guide 14 in the Y-axis direction, and the processing platform moves in the X-axis direction.

[0095] Specifically, as shown in Figure 17, the first extrusion assembly 11 is detachably disposed on the side of the housing 15 away from the 3D printing head 13. The first extrusion assembly 11 does not occupy the build space formed around the housing 15, which can reduce the overall size of the 3D printer 1. The detachable first extrusion assembly 11 is beneficial for the assembly and maintenance of the 3D printer.
