Abstract

A micro three-dimensional printing device is provided. The micro three-dimensional printing device includes a micro-LED display projector configured to emit image light; a material platform facing the micro-LED display projector and configured to receive the image light; a movable printing plate configured to hold a three-dimensional printed object; and a moving mechanism connected with the movable printing plate and configured to move the movable printing plate.

Claims (29)

1 . A micro-three-dimensional printing device comprising:

a micro-LED display projector configured to emit image light;

a material platform facing the micro-LED display projector and configured to receive the image light;

a movable printing plate configured to hold a three-dimensional printed object; and

a moving mechanism connected with the movable printing plate and configured to move the movable printing plate.

2 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 1 , further comprising a pocket holder configured to support the micro-LED display projector and the material platform, the micro-LED display projector being provided in the pocket holder and the material platform being provided on a top of the pocket holder.

3 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 2 , wherein an opening is formed at a top surface of the pocket holder, the material platform being received in the opening.

4 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 1 , further comprising a moving controller electrically connected with the moving mechanism, and configured to control the moving mechanism.

5 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 1 , wherein a focal plane of the micro-LED display projector is on a surface of the material platform facing to the micro-LED display projector.

6 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 1 , wherein the micro-LED display projector further comprises a micro-LED display module for emitting the image light, and a lens group.

7 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 6 , wherein the lens group is arranged facing the micro-LED display module for transmitting the image light emitted from the micro display module.

8 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 6 , wherein the micro-LED display module further comprises at least one micro-LED display panel, wherein the at least one micro-LED display panel comprises an IC (integrated circuit) back plane and a micro-LED array area having one or more micro-LEDs, the micro-LED array area is formed on a surface of the IC back plane and each of the one or more micro-LEDs is electrically connected with the IC back plane.

9 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 8 , wherein a diameter of at least one lens of the lens group is not less than a diagonal line of the micro-LED array area.

10 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 8 , wherein the micro-LED display module comprises:

three monochrome micro-LED display panels;

an optical combiner unit combining three color images from the three monochrome micro-LED display panels into one objective image, wherein the three monochrome micro-LED display panels are arranged around the optical combiner unit; and

a supporting frame comprising a center chamber and four openings that are around the center chamber;

wherein the optical combiner unit is arranged in the center chamber, each of the three micro-LED display panels is fixed on an edge of three of the openings respectively, a fourth one of the openings is positioned for transmitting the image light outside, and the fourth opening is arranged facing one of the three openings.

11 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 8 , wherein the micro-LED display panel further comprises:

an external circuit plane formed at a bottom of the IC back plane and electrically connected with the IC back plane via a bonding wire.

12 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 11 , wherein the IC back plane comprises a non-functional area and an inside connected area; the non-functional area is connected with the external circuit plane via the bonding wire; and the inside connected area is connected with the micro-LEDs.

13 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 8 , wherein the IC back plane comprises an IC driver circuit configured to drive each of the micro-LEDs; wherein the IC driver circuit is driven and controlled by a PWM (pulse width modulation) signal and a current source.

14 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 13 , wherein a gray-scale value of each of the micro-LEDs is controlled by the PWM signal.

15 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 8 , wherein the micro-LED display projector further comprises a top cover plane covering the micro-LED display panel.

16 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 8 , wherein the micro-LED display module further comprises an image light rotating element, the image light rotating element comprises a transmission lens arranged facing the micro-LED array area and a lens position rotating actuator configured to rotate the transmission lens about at least one preset axis, wherein the preset axis is parallel to the micro-LED array area.

17 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 16 , wherein the transmission lens is an optical lens; and the image light emitted from the micro-LED array area passes through the transmission lens and is transmitted outside in a changeable direction corresponding to a rotating direction of the transmission lens.

18 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 16 , wherein the micro-LED display module further comprises an actuator controller, electrically connected with the lens position rotating actuator, configured to control a rotation direction and a rotating frequency of the lens position rotating actuator.

19 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 16 , wherein the lens position rotating actuator is further configured to rotate the transmission lens about an X axis, and the X axis is parallel to the micro-LED array area in a first direction.

20 . The micro three-dimensional printing device according to claim 19 , wherein the lens position rotating actuator is configured to rotate the transmission lens about a Y axis, and the Y axis is parallel to the micro-LED array area in a second direction; and the first direction is not parallel with the second direction.
