TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present invention relates to a wax injection machine mold assembly, apparatus. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the long-term work practice, the exhaust manifold of the turbocharged engine is directly connected with the straight pipe type three-way catalytic device in the past, which has poor high temperature resistance, is not conducive to the layout of the engine and the chassis system, and is inconvenient for the operator to operate and use and shortens the service life. For example, CN201620476627.9 a new air purification device for the exhaust end of a turbocharged vehicle. The mandrel is directly related to the internal structure shape of the casting, and its quality directly affects the internal structure of the casting and the generation of casting defects. Although the existing mandrel uses shell core machine to make core, due to the relatively large size of the exhaust end cone cavity mechanism, the shell core machine either affects the strength of the mandrel due to the thin thickness of the shell, or the thickness of the shell is thick and inconsistent, which causes the mandrel to have a large amount of air and causes casting defects, and the amount of sand increases, which increases the cost of the mandrel. Due to the large size of the exhaust end cone cavity mandrel, the traditional shell core machine core making process, the shell thickness of the mandrel is uneven, which causes the mandrel to have low strength due to the thin thickness of the shell, and the mandrel has a large amount of air due to the thick thickness of the shell, which causes casting defects and increases the amount of sand. Therefore, in order to solve the problem of casting defects caused by uneven shell thickness of the mandrel during the production process of the mandrel, the uniformity and strength of the shell thickness of the mandrel need to be solved.
[0003] At present, the Chinese patent with the publication number CN205033459U on the market discloses a wax injection machine, which comprises a rack, a wax supplementing oil cylinder is installed on the right side of the rack; a workbench is arranged on the top of the rack, a wax injection oil cylinder is installed on the right side and rear end of the workbench, a wax storage barrel is installed on the left side of the wax injection oil cylinder; a wax injection mechanism is installed on the right side and front end of the workbench, the wax injection oil cylinder is drivingly connected with the wax injection mechanism; an electric control box is installed above the wax injection mechanism; a mold and a fixed mold plate are arranged on the left side and front end of the workbench, the fixed mold plate is located above the mold; a mold plate working oil cylinder is fixedly installed on the upper end face of the fixed mold plate, a working mold plate is arranged below the fixed mold plate, the working mold plate is X-shaped, and the working oil cylinder is drivingly connected with the working mold plate; the working mold plate is located above the mold.
[0004] While this type of wax injection machine expands the working field of vision, is convenient to operate, and is safer, it requires workers to bend over to place the mold under a fixed template before each injection operation, and to bend over again to remove the mold from under the template after the injection is completed. This repeated operation can easily lead to safety accidents. Investment casting, also known as lost-wax casting, includes processes such as wax pressing, wax trimming, tree assembly, slurry application, wax melting, pouring molten metal, and post-processing. Lost-wax casting uses wax to create a wax model of the part to be cast, then coats the wax model with clay slurry, creating a clay model. After the clay model dries, it is fired to form a ceramic mold. Upon firing, the wax model completely melts and disappears, leaving only the ceramic mold. A pouring gate is usually left when making the clay mold; molten metal is then poured through the gate, and after cooling, the desired part is formed. Therefore, the production of wax models is an important process, which is completed using a wax injection machine. The molding of wax models is greatly affected by the wax injection machine. Currently, most wax injection machines are not stable enough, so the wax models produced by them often have defects. Summary of the Invention
