Abstract
In an aligning mechanism of a 3D printer scanning device, a scan driving module includes a base and a motor, and the motor has a driving gear. The scan loading module includes a loading table, a turntable, and an engaging gear connected to the turntable, and the loading table has a notch, and the engaging gear is exposed from the notch. The driving gear of the scan driving module and the engaging gear of the scan loading module have a rounded corner or a positioning portion, so that the driving gear is engaged precisely with the engaging gear.
Claims11
A 3D printer scanning device, comprising:
- a body;
- and
- an aligning mechanism, the aligning mechanism comprising:
- a scan driving module, installed in the body, and including a base and a motor installed in the base, the motor having a driving gear, and each gear of the driving gear having a first rounded corner;
- and
- a scan loading module, installed in the body, and including a loading table, a turntable combined with the loading table, and an engaging gear coupled to the turntable, a side of the loading table having a notch, and the engaging gear being exposed from the notch;
- wherein, the driving gear of the scan driving module and the engaging gear of the scan loading module are provided for engaging the driving gear precisely with the engaging gear through the first rounded corners, so that the scan driving module drives the turntable of the scan loading module to rotate.
A 3D printer scanning device, comprising:
- a body;
- and
- an aligning mechanism, the aligning mechanism comprising:
- a scan driving module, installed in the body, and including a base and a motor installed in the base, the base having a plurality of first positioning portions formed thereon, and the motor having a driving gear;
- and
- a scan loading module, installed in the body, and including a loading table, a turntable combined with the loading table, and an engaging gear connected to the turntable, a side of the loading table having a notch, the engaging gear being exposed from the notch, and the loading table having a plurality of second positioning portions corresponsive to the first positioning portions respectively;
- wherein, the driving gear of the scan driving module and the engaging gear of the scan loading module are guided by the first positioning portions and the second positioning portions, such that the driving gear is engaged precisely with the engaging gear, and the scan driving module drives the turntable of the scan loading module to rotate.
