US 11,453,166 B2 · UV curing apparatus for 3D printing product

Abstract

The present invention discloses a UV curing apparatus for a 3D printing product, including a base. A tray is disposed above the base. The tray is horizontally and rotatably connected around a vertical rotating shaft on the base. A hood concentric with the tray is disposed on the base. The tray is located in the hood, and UV light tubes are arranged on an inner wall of the hood. The tray provides a driving force by means of a driving motor. The driving motor is fixed in the base. As can be seen from the foregoing structure, according to the UV curing apparatus for a 3D printing product in the present invention, a UV curing apparatus applicable to a 3D product is provided, and the surface of the 3D product can be automatically and uniformly subjected to UV curing.
