[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of aluminum alloy ingot casting devices, in particular to an aluminum alloy ingot casting device. Background Art

[0002] The aluminum alloy ingot casting device is used to cast liquid aluminum alloy into a mold smoothly and continuously to form a solid aluminum alloy ingot. When casting the aluminum alloy ingot, the mold is first placed in the aluminum alloy ingot casting device, and then the liquid aluminum alloy flows into the mold through a drain pipe, and then waits for it to be cast into shape.

[0003] With regard to the existing related technologies, it is believed that the following defects exist: when the liquid aluminum alloy flows into the mold, it will react with the oxygen in the air to form a layer of aluminum oxide film, namely, oxide scale. However, the oxide scale will affect the quality of the aluminum alloy ingot after forming, and will also affect the surface treatment and coating process. Therefore, it is necessary to remove the oxide scale on the surface in time. Therefore, an aluminum alloy ingot casting device is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to make up for the deficiencies of the prior art and solve at least one technical problem raised in the background technology, the utility model proposes an aluminum alloy ingot casting device.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problems is: the utility model describes an aluminum alloy ingot casting device, comprising a casting device, a flow groove running through the casting device is provided on one side of the casting device, a feed port is provided on one side of the flow groove, a discharge port is provided on the other side of the flow groove, a plurality of mold boxes are placed inside the flow groove, a drain pipe is fixedly installed inside the casting device, a base is fixedly installed on one side of the casting device, a first electric push rod is fixedly installed on one side of the base, a connecting rod is provided at the output end of the first electric push rod, and an arc-shaped scraper is fixedly installed at the bottom of the connecting rod; an adjusting component for adjusting the height of the connecting rod and the scraper is provided at the output end of the first electric push rod, and a storage component for collecting oxide scale installed on one side of the casting device.

[0006] Furthermore, the adjustment component includes a placement box fixedly installed at the output end of the first electric push rod, a cavity is opened inside the placement box, a second electric push rod is fixedly installed inside the cavity, and the output end of the second electric push rod is fixedly connected to the connecting rod.

[0007] Furthermore, both ends of the scraper are provided with receiving grooves, the interior of the receiving groove is slidably connected to an auxiliary plate, the interior of the receiving groove is fixedly connected to a spring, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the auxiliary plate, the bottom of the auxiliary plate is provided with rounded corners, and a number of rolling balls are rotatably connected to the rounded corners of the auxiliary plate.

[0008] Furthermore, a fixed block is fixedly installed inside the cavity, a sliding block is slidably connected inside the fixed block, one end of the sliding block away from the fixed block is fixedly connected to the connecting rod, and an arc-shaped cleaning plate is fixedly installed on one end of the fixed block close to the sliding block.

[0009] Furthermore, the storage assembly includes a storage box fixedly mounted on one side of the casting equipment, a crossbeam frame fixedly mounted on the top of the storage box, and an impact plate is provided on one side of the crossbeam frame.

[0010] Furthermore, two protrusions are fixedly installed at the bottom of the crossbeam frame, and the impact plate is rotatably connected between the two protrusions through a torsion spring. An inclined top rod is fixedly installed at the bottom of the crossbeam frame.

[0011] The utility model is beneficial in that:

[0012] 1. The utility model allows the first electric push rod to drive the placement box to move toward the mold box, and then starts the second electric push rod in the cavity, so that the second electric push rod drives the sliding block, the connecting rod and the scraper to move downward, so that the bottom end of the scraper enters the mold box to scrape off the oxide scale. Since the width of mold boxes in different batches is different, the auxiliary plate is used to reduce the gap between the scraper and the mold box. If the width of the mold box is wider than the scraper, but narrower than the two auxiliary plates, the fillet and the ball at the bottom of the auxiliary plate will contact the top of the mold box, so that they are squeezed and enter the storage groove, realizing the function of shrinking the auxiliary plate, and then the auxiliary plate cooperates with the scraper to scrape off the oxide scale on the surface of the aluminum liquid in the mold box. The scraped mold box will enter the next process through the discharge port. When the scraping work is completed, the second electric push rod drives the connecting rod and the scraper to reset. At this time, the auxiliary plate is no longer restricted by the extrusion of the mold box, and the spring in the storage slot drives the auxiliary plate to reset, so as to facilitate the next use. The fixed block and the sliding block are installed to reduce the splashing of aluminum water into the cavity to affect the normal use of the second electric push rod. The splashing aluminum water will be blocked by the sliding block, and the arc-shaped cleaning plate at the bottom of the fixed block will scrape off the aluminum water when the sliding block moves up and down, so as to achieve the effect of rapid cleaning and effectively avoid the solidification of aluminum water affecting the sliding block in the fixed block. Through the above-designed structure, the oxide scale on the surface of the mold box can be quickly scraped off without manual operation, and the scraping efficiency is greatly improved.

[0013] 2. In the utility model, after the scraper and the auxiliary plate have scraped off the oxide scale, the first electric push rod will not immediately drive them to reset, but will continue to move toward the direction of the storage box, so that the scraper and the auxiliary plate will contact and collide with the impact plate on the crossbeam frame, thereby shaking the oxide scale on the scraper and the auxiliary plate off to the storage box, along with the slow reset of the scraper, since the impact plate is rotatably connected by a torsion spring and is limited by the top plate, the impact plate will immediately reset and hit the scraper and the auxiliary plate again, thereby ensuring that the oxide scale on the scraper and the auxiliary plate is shaken off, achieving efficient cleaning work, and effectively preventing the oxide scale from sticking to the scraper and the auxiliary plate and falling back into the bottom mold box.

After a mold box 5 is filled, it will move in the flow trough 2 and reach the bottom of the scraper 9. At this time, the first electric push rod 8 on the base 7 is started, and the first electric push rod 8 drives the placement box 10 to move toward the direction of the mold box 5.

When the scraping work is completed, the second electric push rod 12 drives the connecting rod 13 and the scraper 9 to reset. At this time, the auxiliary plate 16 is no longer restricted by the extrusion of the mold box 5.

[0029] During operation, after the scraper 9 and the auxiliary plate 16 have scraped off the oxide scale, the first electric push rod 8 will not immediately drive them to reset, but will continue to move toward the storage box 20, so that the scraper 9 and the auxiliary plate 16 will contact and collide with the impact plate 22 on the crossbeam frame 21, thereby shaking the oxide scale on the scraper 9 and the auxiliary plate 16 off to the storage box 20, accompanied by the slow reset of the scraper 9, since the impact plate 22 is rotatably connected by a torsion spring and is limited by the top plate, the impact plate 22 will immediately reset and hit the scraper 9 and the auxiliary plate 16 again, thereby ensuring that the oxide scale on the scraper 9 and the auxiliary plate 16 is shaken off, achieving efficient cleaning work, and effectively preventing the oxide scale from sticking to the scraper 9 and the auxiliary plate 16 and falling back into the bottom mold box 5.
