Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of valve body casting processing technology, in particular to a process method for automatically eliminating the shrinkage phenomenon in valve body casting. Background Art

[0002] Shrinkage is a serious defect of castings. Castings are often scrapped due to shrinkage defects. Taking valve body castings as an example, in the existing technology, the main core hole inside the valve body is prone to shrinkage during the processing and production of valve body castings. The main reason for this is that the mud core inside the valve body is currently poorly stable and easy to bend; the casting only relies on sequential solidification to achieve shrinkage compensation during molding, and the effect is not very significant; only relying on the mainstream gate casting makes the liquid raw material flow slowly, and the molding speed and temperature are difficult to control. To this end, we propose a process method for automatically eliminating shrinkage in valve body castings. Summary of the invention

[0003] The object of the present invention is to provide a process for automatically eliminating the shrinkage phenomenon in a valve body casting, so as to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0007] Furthermore, a main flow gate and four secondary flow gates are arranged on the top of the casting mold cavity of the valve body casting, and the aperture of the main flow gate is larger than the aperture of the secondary flow gate.

[0008] Furthermore, there are ten sand cores in total, and the sand cores are symmetrically arranged in the inner cavity of the casting mold cavity of the valve body casting with the main flow gate and the four secondary flow gates having the same central axis.

[0009] Furthermore, a process method for automatically eliminating shrinkage in a valve body casting is provided: liquid raw materials of a main molding material are poured into the casting mold cavity of the valve body casting through a mainstream gate, the liquid raw materials flow through the mainstream gate to the secondary flow gate, and after the liquid raw materials penetrate into the casting mold cavity of the valve body casting, they flow through a branch channel to the sand core, and the liquid raw materials are finally formed in the sand core.
