Manual cascading equipment for 3D printer filament consumables

Abstract

The invention provides manual tandem connection equipment for 3D printer filament consumables. The equipment comprises a casing, wherein a handle, a filament cascading device, a heating mechanism, a drive mechanism and a lifting mechanism are mounted in the casing; the filament cascading device comprises a first filament cascading mechanism and a second filament cascading mechanism, the first filament cascading mechanism and the second filament cascading mechanism are concentrically arranged and distributed at an interval, a to-be-cascaded filament consumable is guided into each of the first filament cascading mechanism and the second filament cascading mechanism, the spacer region between the first filament cascading mechanism and the second filament cascading mechanism is a heat joiningregion, push force is produced when the handle is moved, the drive mechanism receives the push force produced during movement of the handle and transmits the push force to the first filament cascadingmechanism and the second filament cascading mechanism, the first filament cascading mechanism and the second filament cascading mechanism convey the filament consumables to the heat joining region under the action of the push force, cascading is completed in the heat joining region, the lifting mechanism receive push force produced during movement of the handle and drives the heating device to move up or down under the action of the push force, and the heating device is used for providing heat energy required by heat joining in the heat joining region.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of 3D printers, in particular to a device for serially connecting consumables of 3D printers. Background technique [0002] At present, with the increasing popularity of 3D printing technology and its use in teaching, production, processing, and testing, 3D printers will have a small amount of redundant consumables during the printing process. This part of the consumables is not enough to support the next printing. For the rest of this part Consumables, the existing technology cannot recycle their raw materials, and can only be discarded, which makes 3D printing consumables wasteful and pollutes the environment; in addition, the existing ordinary 3D printers basically cannot realize multi-color printing of objects , but through special wiring equipment, this part of the vacancy can be made up. The specific operation is: calculate the length and sorting of the corresponding color consumables, connect multiple...

[0002] At present, with the increasing popularity of 3D printing technology and its use in teaching, production, processing, and testing, 3D printers will have a small amount of redundant consumables during the printing process. This part of the consumables is not enough to support the next printing. For the rest of this part Consumables, the existing technology cannot recycle its raw materials, and can only be discarded, which makes 3D printing consumables wasteful and pollutes the environment; in addition, the existing ordinary 3D printers basically cannot realize multi-color printing of objects , but through special wiring equipment, this part of the vacancy can be made up. The specific operation is: calculate the length and sorting of the corresponding color consumables, connect multiple consumables in series through the special wiring equipment, and the concatenated multi-color consumables enter the 3D printer After that, the multi-color printing of the object can be completed in an orderly manner
