Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mold shell fixing and furnace center positioning structure, in particular to a mold shell fixing and furnace center positioning structure for vacuum melting and injection. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of high-end manufacturing industries such as aerospace engines, high-temperature alloy precision castings, such as blades, integrally cast blisks, turbine rotors, etc., have also been widely used and developed. Engine blades, blisks, turbines, etc. are often produced by remelting high-temperature alloy master alloys in a three-chamber vacuum induction melting furnace and pouring them into product mold shells. During the pouring production process, the preheated mold shell is taken out of the preheating furnace, transferred to the mold shell chamber and placed on the lifting platform for fixation, and then the mold shell is lifted and sent to the melting chamber for pouring. During the process of taking out, transferring, and placing the mold shell on the lifting platform, the mold shell transfer speed, fixation, and positioning are all very important. If the transfer speed is slow, the mold shell will cool down severely during pouring, and cold shut or insufficient pouring defects are prone to occur. If the fixation is not good, the mold shell will be easily dumped when impacted by molten steel during pouring. If the positioning is inaccurate, the molten steel will easily spill outside the pouring cup during pouring. Therefore, it is necessary to strictly control the fixation of the mold shell and the positioning on the lifting platform, which is crucial for the safe and smooth implementation of the melting and pouring process.

[0003] At present, in the production process of a three-chamber vacuum induction melting furnace, a simple pad or bracket is often made and placed on a lifting platform to support the mold shell. When the mold shell is picked out from the preheating furnace or transferred to the mold shell chamber of the vacuum furnace by forklift, the worker first uses the pad or bracket to tie it on the lifting platform with wire, and then adjusts the mold shell to the center position of the furnace body based on experience, so that the molten steel can be injected into the mold shell during pouring. However, in actual operation, there are often problems such as the mold shell is not firmly fixed, pouring occurs, the center positioning is inaccurate, the molten steel is thrown out of the mold shell, the fixing and center positioning time is too long, the mold shell temperature drops suddenly, the casting produces cold shut or under-injection, and the casting is scrapped. The utility model patent designs a mold shell fixing and furnace center positioning structure to achieve mold shell fixing, rapid transportation, and rapid positioning. Utility Model Content
