本发明涉及一种用于三维打印系统的粉末铺平装置,还涉及一种具有所述粉末铺平装置的三维打印系统。The present invention relates to a powder leveling device for a three-dimensional printing system, and also relates to a three-dimensional printing system with the powder leveling device.
背景技术Background technique
利用激光或电子束扫描固化预置的粉末层、逐层制造三维物体的三维打印技术是一种新型的制造技术。典型的三维打印工艺有激光选区熔化和电子束选区熔化,其基本的工艺步骤包括:利用粉末供应与铺平系统将粉末材料在工作平台上铺展成薄层,然后激光或电子束在粉末上移动,选择性烧结或熔化粉末材料。以上步骤不断重复直至整个三维物体制造完成。The 3D printing technology that uses laser or electron beam scanning to solidify the preset powder layer and manufacture 3D objects layer by layer is a new type of manufacturing technology. Typical 3D printing processes include laser selective melting and electron beam selective melting. The basic process steps include: using the powder supply and paving system to spread the powder material into a thin layer on the working platform, and then the laser or electron beam moves on the powder , selective sintering or melting of powdered materials. The above steps are repeated until the entire three-dimensional object is manufactured.
在制造三维物体的过程中,激光或电子束在扫描熔化粉末层时经常会出现聚球、粉末飞溅等现象,导致已成形零件的上表面不平整。粉末铺平系统需要在这种环境中正常、稳定地工作。现有的粉末铺平系统采用刮板、辊子等刚性结构,粉末铺平系统在不平整的表面移动时容易被卡住,导致制造过程被迫中断,甚至使粉末铺平系统产生不可恢复的变形甚至折断,从而恶化后续的粉末铺平效果。In the process of manufacturing three-dimensional objects, when the laser or electron beam scans the molten powder layer, there are often phenomena such as ball gathering and powder splashing, which cause the upper surface of the formed part to be uneven. Powder paving systems need to function properly and reliably in this environment. The existing powder leveling system adopts rigid structures such as scrapers and rollers, and the powder leveling system is easily stuck when moving on an uneven surface, resulting in forced interruption of the manufacturing process, and even irreversible deformation of the powder leveling system Even break off, thereby deteriorating the effect of subsequent powder paving.

下面参考图1-图7描述根据本发明实施例的用于三维打印系统的粉末铺平装置40。如图1-图7所示,所述三维打印系统包括工作平台20,根据本发明实施例的用于三维打印系统的粉末铺平装置40包括第一导轨401、第二导轨402、滑动件403、梳子404、第一滚轮405、第二滚轮406和驱动件(图中未示出)。The following describes a
第一导轨401和第二导轨402间隔开地设在工作平台20的上表面201上,其中第一导轨401的下表面的第一部分和第二导轨402的下表面的第一部分均与工作平台20在上下方向上间隔开。梳子404倾斜地设在滑动件403上,梳子404的下沿与工作平台20的上表面201接触以便对工作平台20的上表面201上的粉末2进行铺平。换言之,梳子404相对工作平台20的上表面201倾斜设置,即梳子404与工作平台20的上表面201的夹角α大于0度且小于等于90度。也就是说,梳子404倾斜地设在滑动件403上是指:梳子404相对于工作平台20的上表面201来说是倾斜的,即梳子404相对工作平台20的上表面201倾斜地设在滑动件403上。其中,上下方向如图1-图5和图7中的箭头A所示。The
第一滚轮405设在梳子404的第一侧,第二滚轮406设在梳子404的第二侧。所述驱动件与滑动件403相连以便通过滑动件403带动梳子404在初始位置与终止位置之间移动。其中,梳子404在从所述初始位置向所述终止位置移动时,第一滚轮405与第一导轨401的下表面的所述第一部分接触,第二滚轮406与第二导轨402的下表面的所述第一部分接触。The
下面参考图1-图4描述根据本发明实施例的用于三维打印系统的粉末铺平装置40的工作过程。在图1中,粉末铺平装置40位于所述初始位置。当需要对工作平台20的上表面201上的粉末2进行铺平时,所述驱动件通过滑动件403带动梳子404从所述初始位置向所述终止位置移动(图1中的箭头示出了梳子404的移动方向)。由于梳子404的下沿与工作平台20的上表面201接触,因此可以将工作平台20的上表面201上的粉末2铺平(铺平后的粉末2如图2所示)。The following describes the working process of the
具体而言,三维打印系统可以包括成形缸,所述成形缸可以包括缸体和可上下移动地设在所述缸体内的活塞,其中所述缸体与工作平台20相连,所述缸体的上表面与工作平台20的上表面平齐。所述成形缸可以是已知的,且所述成形缸与工作平台20可以通过已知的方式相连,这与本发明的发明点无关,在此不再详细地描述。在本发明的一个具体示例中,工作平台20上可以设有沿上下方向贯通工作平台20的容纳孔202,所述成形缸的上端可以容纳在容纳孔202内。Specifically, the three-dimensional printing system may include a forming cylinder, and the forming cylinder may include a cylinder body and a piston that can move up and down in the cylinder body, wherein the cylinder body is connected with the working
由于梳子404相对工作平台20的上表面201倾斜设置,因此可以极大地减小梳子404的梳齿在刮过不平整的表面时的变形应力,从而可以降低梳子404的梳齿发生不可恢复的变形或折断的风险,由此可以使铺平过程能够顺利地进行,不会被打断。Since the
而且,在铺平粉末时,由于设在梳子404上的第一滚轮405和第二滚轮406以第一导轨401的下表面的所述第一部分和第二导轨402的下表面的所述第一部分为参考面滚动,并且粉末2不能在第一导轨401的下表面的所述第一部分和第二导轨402的下表面的所述第一部分上积累,因此可以保证该参考面的恒定。而且,当梳子404刮过障碍时,第一导轨401和第二导轨402向梳子404产生向下的压紧力,从而保证梳子404可以完全依靠梳齿的弹性变形越过障碍。由于该参考面可以保持恒定,因此梳子404不会被整体抬升,从而不会导致没有障碍的地方的粉末层变厚,即可以使铺平得到的粉末层的厚度保持一致。Moreover, when the powder is spread, the first part of the lower surface of the
根据本发明实施例的用于三维打印系统的粉末铺平装置40通过将梳子404倾斜地设在滑动件403上,从而可以极大地减小梳子404的梳齿在刮过不平整的表面时的变形应力,进而可以降低梳子404的梳齿发生不可恢复的变形或折断的风险。而且,由于第一滚轮405和第二滚轮406在保持恒定的参考面上移动,因此可以使铺平得到的粉末层的厚度保持一致。因此,根据本发明实施例的用于三维打印系统的粉末铺平装置40具有铺平效果好、铺平效率高、不易损坏、使用寿命长等优点。According to the
理论计算表明,梳子404与工作平台20的上表面201的夹角α越小,梳子404的梳齿在越过同样高度的障碍时的最大应力值越小。例如,当夹角α为65度时,梳子404的梳齿越过0.2毫米高的障碍时,梳子404的梳齿所受的最大应力值为梳子404垂直设在工作平台20的上表面201(即梳子404垂直于工作平台20的上表面201)时梳齿所受的最大应力值的13.4%,梳子404的梳齿越过0.6毫米高的障碍时,梳子404的梳齿所受的最大应力值为梳子404垂直设在工作平台20的上表面201时梳齿所受的最大应力值的31.8%。Theoretical calculations show that the smaller the angle α between the
有利地,梳子404与工作平台20的上表面201的夹角α可以是45度-85度。由此可以进一步减小梳子404的梳齿越过障碍时的最大应力值,进一步降低梳子404的梳齿发生不可恢复的变形或折断的风险。Advantageously, the angle α between the
进一步有利地,梳子404与工作平台20的上表面201的夹角α可以是65度。由此可以进一步减小梳子404的梳齿越过障碍时的最大应力值,进一步降低梳子404的梳齿发生不可恢复的变形或折断的风险。Further advantageously, the included angle α between the

有利地,滑动件403上可以设有螺纹孔,调节件407可以螺纹配合在螺纹孔内,调节件407的端部可以穿过螺纹孔且与梳子404接触。由此可以使粉末铺平装置40的结构更加合理,并且可以更加容易地、精确地调节梳子404与工作平台20的上表面201的夹角α的大小。Advantageously, the sliding
下面以梳子404在左右方向上移动为例,描述利用调节件407调节梳子404与工作平台20的上表面201的夹角α的大小的过程,其中左右方向如图1-图4中的箭头B所示。梳子404的主体位于滑动件403的左侧,且梳子404位于调节件407的左侧,调节件407的左端可以穿过螺纹孔且调节件407的左端可以与梳子404接触。当需要增大梳子404与工作平台20的上表面201的夹角α时,可以旋转调节件407以便使调节件407向右移动。当需要减小梳子404与工作平台20的上表面201的夹角α时,可以旋转调节件407以便使调节件407向左移动。Taking the
如图1-图4所示,在本发明的一个实施例中,用于三维打印系统的粉末铺平装置40还包括第一楔形块408、第二楔形块409、第一翻板410和第二翻板411。第一楔形块408可以具有第一斜面4081,第二楔形块409可以具有第二斜面4091。第一翻板410可以可枢转地设在第一导轨401的远离所述初始位置的端部(例如第一导轨401的右端)且第一翻板410的远离第一导轨401的端面(例如第一翻板410的右端面)可以是第三斜面4101。As shown in FIGS. 1-4 , in one embodiment of the present invention, the
第二翻板411可以可枢转地设在第二导轨402的远离所述初始位置的端部(例如第二导轨402的右端)且第二翻板411的远离第二导轨402的端面(例如第二翻板411的右端面)可以是第四斜面4111。其中,第三斜面4101可以支撑在第一斜面4081上,第四斜面4111可以支撑在第二斜面4091上。在对粉末2进行铺平时,梳子404从所述初始位置向第一导轨401的远离所述初始位置的端部和第二导轨402的远离所述初始位置的端部移动。The
梳子404铺平粉末2后继续向所述终止位置移动,当第一滚轮405移动至第一斜面4081且第二滚轮406移动至第二斜面4091后,第一滚轮405沿第一斜面4081且第二滚轮406沿第二斜面4091向上移动,并且第一滚轮405可以顶开第一翻板410且第二滚轮406可以顶开第二翻板411(如图2所示)。如图3所示,当第一滚轮405移动到第一楔形块408的上表面4082且第二滚轮406移动到第二楔形块409的上表面4092时,梳子404位于所述终止位置,第一翻板410和第二翻板411恢复原状。此时,梳子404被向上抬升了一段距离,且梳子404不再与工作平台20的上表面201接触。After the
然后,所述驱动件可以带动梳子404从所述终止位置向所述初始位置移动,第一滚轮405依次经过第一楔形块408的上表面4082、第一翻板410的上表面4102和第一导轨401的上表面4013,第二滚轮406依次经过第二楔形块409的上表面4092、第二翻板411的上表面4112和第二导轨402的上表面4021。最后,第一滚轮405从第一导轨401的上表面4013上滚落且第二滚轮406从第二导轨402的上表面4021上滚轮,此时梳子404回到所述初始位置。Then, the driving member can drive the
如果梳子404在工作平台20的上表面201上进行回程移动,即梳子404在工作平台20的上表面201上从所述终止位置移动到所述初始位置,则梳子404容易顶住不平整的表面,导致梳子404产生大变形甚至折断。因此,通过设置第一翻板410、第二翻板411、第一楔形块408和第二楔形块409,从而在梳子404从所述终止位置移动到所述初始位置时无需与工作平台20的上表面201接触,由此可以防止梳子404产生大变形甚至折断。If the
有利地,第一斜面4081可以平行于第三斜面4101(第一翻板410未被顶起时),第二斜面4091可以平行于第四斜面4111(第二翻板411未被顶起时)。Advantageously, the
如图1-图4所示,第一翻板410的上表面4102可以邻近第一导轨401的上表面4013和第一楔形块408的上表面4082,第一翻板410的下表面可以邻近第一导轨401的下表面。第一翻板410的上表面4102、第一导轨401的上表面4013和第一楔形块408的上表面4082可以平齐,第一翻板410的下表面可以与第一导轨401的下表面平齐。As shown in Figures 1-4, the
第二翻板411的上表面4112可以邻近第二导轨402的上表面4021和第二楔形块409的上表面4092,第二翻板411的下表面可以邻近第二导轨402的下表面。第二翻板411的上表面4112、第二导轨402的上表面4021和第二楔形块409的上表面4092可以平齐,第二翻板411的下表面可以与第二导轨402的下表面平齐。由此可以使粉末铺平装置40的结构更加合理,第一滚轮405和第二滚轮406在移动过程中更加平稳。The

第一枢转轴4042可以是两个,一个第一枢转轴4042可以设在本体4041的第一侧上,另一个第一枢转轴4042可以设在本体4041的第二侧上。There can be two
有利地,本体4041可以是平板状,第一铺平部4045可以是平板状,且第一铺平部4045可以平行于本体4041。本体4041和第一铺平部4045都可以相对工作平台20的上表面201倾斜地设置。Advantageously, the
在本发明的一个示例中,如图5和图6所示,梳子404还可以包括第二铺平部4046,第二铺平部4046可以设在本体4041上,第二铺平部4046可以相对第一铺平部4045远离所述初始位置。具体地,第二铺平部4046可以位于第一铺平部4045的右侧。其中,第二铺平部4046上可以间隔开地设有多个第二梳齿40461,每个第二梳齿40461的下沿可以与工作平台20的上表面201间隔预定距离。In an example of the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 , the
通过在本体4041上设置第二铺平部4046且第二铺平部4046的第二梳齿40461的下沿与工作平台20的上表面201间隔预定距离,从而可以利用第二铺平部4046先对粉末2进行初步铺平,即可以将粉末2的推力分散到第一铺平部4045和第二铺平部4046上,由此可以减小梳子404变形的风险。具体而沿,每个第二梳齿40461的下沿与工作平台20的上表面201之间的距离为Δh(如图5所示)。By setting the
有利地,第二铺平部4046可以是平板状,且第二铺平部4046可以平行于第一铺平部4045和本体4041。由此可以使梳子404的结构更加合理。本体4041、第一铺平部4045和第二铺平部4046都可以相对工作平台20的上表面201倾斜地设置。每个第二梳齿40461的下沿与工作平台20的上表面201之间的距离可以大于0且小于等于1毫米。优选地,每个第二梳齿40461的下沿与工作平台20的上表面201之间的距离可以是0.2毫米。Advantageously, the second flattened

如图5和图6所示,有利地,第二铺平部4046可以平行于第一铺平部4045。由此可以使梳子404的结构更加合理。As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 , advantageously, the second flattened
在本发明的一个具体示例中,如图6所示,相邻两个第二梳齿40461之间的间隙40462在梳子404的移动方向(例如左右方向)上可以与第一梳齿40451相对。换言之,第一铺平部4045与第二铺平部4046可以错开设置。当第二铺平部4046刮过粉末2时,会有粉末2从相邻两个第二梳齿40461之间的间隙中漏出。由于该间隙与第一梳齿40451相对,因此第一梳齿40451可以将漏出的粉末2刮平,由此可以进一步提高粉末铺平装置40的铺平效果。In a specific example of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 6 , the
