[0002] The support and fixing seat is the main accessory of medical equipment produced by famous domestic medical equipment manufacturers. The weight of the blank is 1.81KG, and it is a stainless steel accessory with structural functions. The surface of the part is required to be polished, the geometric shape is accurate, and the material is cast 304 stainless steel. There is no casting defect visually. This requires that the casting process must be perfect, the heat section of the casting must be fully compensated, and there is no casting defect.
[0003] In traditional investment casting technology, in order to manufacture a support fixture with complex geometry and high precision requirements, it is necessary to make a wax model, make a shell, dewax, bake and pour. However, the existing technology has some limitations, such as:
[0004] 1. The pouring system design is not optimized enough, resulting in uneven flow of molten metal, which is prone to casting defects such as pores, slag holes and shrinkage.
[0005] 2. The design of the wax drain channel is unreasonable, which cannot ensure that the investment wax is completely removed, affecting the molding quality of the casting.
[0006] 3. The process yield is low and the cost is high, which is not conducive to large-scale production and market competition. Utility Model Content
[0007] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the utility model provides a support fixing seat investment casting structure.

[0034] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The utility model provides a support fixing seat investment casting structure, comprising: a tree assembly die head, a plurality of support fixing seat investment casting parts 6 connected to the tree assembly die head;
[0035] The die head comprises a cup gate 1, an I-shaped runner 2, a plurality of wax discharge channels 4, a plurality of wedge-shaped inner gates 3 with an inclination, and two conducting runners 5 arranged on the I-shaped runner 2;
[0036] The cup gate 1 is connected to the top of the I-shaped runner 2; one end of each of the wax discharge channels 4 is connected to the cup gate 1, and the other end is connected to a supporting fixed seat investment casting 6; the wax discharge channel 4 adopts a wax discharge channel 4 with a diameter of 6mm to ensure that the investment wax can be completely discharged, avoiding defects such as air holes and slag holes in the casting, and is beneficial to cost control and environmental protection.
[0037] One end of each of the wedge-shaped ingates 3 is connected to the I-shaped runner 2, and the other end is connected to the support fixed seat investment casting 6, wherein the wedge-shaped ingates 3 are designed at the main thermal node and have an inclination to ensure the molding and shrinkage compensation of the casting and reduce defects at the thermal node.
[0038] Furthermore, the I-shaped runner 2 includes an upper runner 201 and a lower runner 202, and a vertical runner 203 connected to the upper runner 201 and the lower runner 202. The I-shaped design helps to evenly distribute the molten metal to each wedge-shaped inner gate 3; the cup gate 1 is connected to the upper runner 201 and is placed in the middle of the upper runner 201. The cup gate is placed in the middle of the upper runner 201, which helps to achieve even distribution of the metal injection liquid and can reduce turbulence and oxidation during the flow process, thereby improving the quality of the casting and reducing casting defects.
[0039] Furthermore, one end of each of the conducting runners 5 is connected to one end of the upper runner 201, and the other end is connected to one end of the corresponding lower runner 202, which is conducive to the flow and distribution of the metal injection liquid in the runner system; the number of the multiple wedge-shaped ingates 3 is set to 8, and one side end of the upper runner 201 and the lower runner 202 are connected to two wedge-shaped ingates 3. Each of the supporting fixed seat investment castings 6 is connected through two wedge-shaped ingates 3; each of the supporting fixed seat investment castings 6 is connected to the wedge-shaped ingates 3 set on the upper runner 201 and the wedge-shaped ingates 3 set on the lower runner 202. The number of the multiple wax discharge channels 4 and the multiple supporting fixed seat investment castings 6 is set to 4, and 4 supporting fixed seat investment castings 6 can be produced each time, with high production efficiency.
[0040] The investment casting process scheme of the utility model is carefully designed for the production of the support fixing seat to ensure the high quality and high yield of the casting. Firstly, according to the structural characteristics of the casting, two inclined wedge-shaped gates 3 are set at the main hot node. Such a design helps the molten metal to fill the cavity more smoothly during injection and realizes effective shrinkage compensation in the hot node area, thereby reducing casting defects.
[0041] Furthermore, we adopted a tree module grouping method, each group containing 4 support fixing seat investment castings 6. Such batch processing greatly improved the production efficiency. In order to ensure the complete removal of the investment wax, we welded a wax drainage channel 4 with a diameter of 6mm at each product wax mold. This measure helps to avoid the formation of pores and slag holes in the casting, thereby ensuring the surface quality of the casting and the integrity of the internal structure.
[0042] After the shell is dewaxed and baked, we use a special cooling method: after taking the mold head out of the baking furnace, we quickly immerse the lower part of the mold head in water for 1 to 2 seconds. This step helps to adjust the temperature of the shell and prepare for the subsequent molten metal injection. After that, we pull the shell module directly to the furnace mouth for molten steel pouring. After the pouring is completed, the shell module is placed on a sand tray for cooling to achieve uniform solidification of the casting.
[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not limit the patent scope of the utility model. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the utility model specification and drawings under the utility model concept, or directly / indirectly used in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the utility model.
