Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of die processing, and in particular to an extrusion die structure for shortening a transverse weld. Background Art

[0002] When aluminum extrusion uses a splitter combination die to produce hollow profiles, after the billet is extruded and the excess is cut, there will be residual material in the splitter hole and welding chamber of the splitter die. When the next billet is extruded, the front end of the billet will contact the residual material left in the mold by the previous billet. As the extrusion progresses, the contact surface is welded under the action of high temperature and high pressure, and flows out of the mold to form a transverse weld. Unlike the longitudinal weld, the transverse weld usually contains a large amount of impurities, segregants and oxides of the aluminum rod, so the welding quality is poor. In actual production, the part containing the transverse weld will be discarded, which seriously affects the yield rate. The location where cracks appear in aluminum alloy products with welds often starts from the weld, and there are usually no holes or defects in the bad welds, which are difficult to be found in non-destructive testing, which is easy to leave hidden dangers for the product.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The present invention is further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an extrusion die structure for shortening a transverse weld seam according to the present invention comprises a die 1, a diverter hole 2, a diverter bridge 3, a welding chamber 4, a die core 7, and an empty knife edge 8;

[0032] The mold 1 includes an upper mold 11 and a lower mold 12 that cooperate with each other; the upper mold 11 includes an upper mold feed end 111 and an upper mold discharge end 112; the upper mold feed end 111 is provided with the diverter hole 2 and the diverter bridge 3 extending to the upper mold discharge end 112; the diverter bridge 3 includes a diverter bridge feed end 31 located at the upper mold feed end 111, a diverter bridge main body 32 located in the middle of the upper mold 11, and a diverter bridge discharge end 33 located at the upper mold discharge end 112; the upper mold discharge end 112 and the lower mold 12 form the welding chamber 4; the side wall of the welding chamber 4 located below the diverter hole 2 is set as the first side wall 5; the side wall of the welding chamber 4 located below the diverter bridge 3 is the second side wall 6; the upper mold 11 is provided with the mold core 7 in the lower middle of the bottom; the lower mold 12 is provided with the empty knife edge 8 that cooperates with the mold core 7 in the middle.

[0033] The bridge surface of the feed end 31 of the diverter bridge is sunken relative to the feed end 111 of the upper mold, which can effectively reduce the pressure of the mold 1 and make the size more stable.

[0034] The discharging end 33 of the diverter bridge is formed into a sharp angle shape, and the angle of the discharging end of the diverter bridge is 35°-60°. The product precision requires a high angle and the upper limit can be taken; the design of the diverter bridge 3 improves the dead zone formed by the blocking of the diverter bridge 3 in the welding chamber 422, thereby reducing the dead zone. Compared with the planar diverter bridge 3, the metal at the bottom of the upper mold 11 and the dead zone on both sides is less.

[0035] The first side wall 5 and the second side wall 6 at both ends of the welding chamber 4 are inclined; and the first side wall 5 and the second side wall 6 form an angle of 45°-55° with the bottom of the welding chamber 4 respectively.

[0036] The first side wall 5 and the second side wall 6 are transitioned to the bottom of the welding chamber 4 by using a first transition arc 51 and a second transition arc 61 respectively.

[0037] The second transition arc 61 is smaller than the first transition arc 51. The structure of the welding chamber 4 has almost no dead zone, which speeds up the outflow of the old blank and effectively reduces the defects of transverse welding.

[0038] The upper part of the welding chamber 4 is provided with a lower die feed end 121; the end surface of the lower die feed end 121 is provided with a diverter bridge pier 9. When the mold is closed, the bottom of the diverter bridge 3 abuts against the diverter bridge pier 9 to prevent the metal from flowing out.

[0039] The upper mold 11 and the lower mold 12 are provided with positioning holes 10; during the process of closing the upper and lower molds, an external latch can be inserted into the positioning hole 10 to connect the upper and lower molds together, while also limiting the closing orientation.

[0040] The main part of the upper mold 11 is convex; the main part of the lower mold 12 is concave; when the upper mold 11 and the lower mold 12 are closed, the bottom of the upper mold 11 is stuck in the concave interior of the main part of the lower mold 12.

[0041] The core 7 includes a core head 71 and a core neck 72 ; the core head 71 is stuck inside the empty knife edge 8 when the mold is closed, and the core neck 72 is located inside the welding chamber 4 when the mold is closed.

[0042] Working principle: The blank is poured in from the feed end 31 of the diverter bridge, and then flows into the welding chamber 4 from the diverter hole 2. The design of the tip of the diverter bridge discharge end 33 improves the metal flow direction and reduces the dead zone formed in the welding chamber 4 due to the obstruction of the diverter bridge 3.

[0043] As the extrusion proceeds, the blank enters the welding chamber 4. Since the welding chamber 4 has an inclined side wall and a large rounded transition between the side wall and the bottom, the accumulation of part of the blank at the corner of the side wall and the bottom of the lower die welding chamber 4 to form a metal flow "dead zone" can be reduced during the process of the blank flowing in, and even the formation of the dead zone can be avoided; this welding chamber 4 structure has almost no dead zone formation, speeds up the outflow of the old blank, and effectively shortens the defects of lateral welding.

[0044] The above-described embodiments only express the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments. It should be noted that it is obvious to those skilled in the art. Without departing from the purpose of the present invention, any improvement made shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present invention shall be subject to the attached claims.
