Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of diesel engine casting technology, and particularly relates to a diesel engine body sand core integrated combination casting method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Diesel engine has been invented by German for more than 100 years, and has a production and use history of more than 70 years in China. The frontiers of diesel engine design and manufacturing technology have been dominated by European and American countries. For many years, China has been using the way of patent introduction to produce diesel engines. However, while introducing, digesting and absorbing, China has been persistently carrying out original design and process research and development work. In recent years, many original diesel engines with independent intellectual property rights have been successfully developed and put into use in China, and the economic benefit has been greatly improved. The situation that diesel engine power is subject to Europe and the United States has been greatly improved.

[0003] The body is the mother body of the diesel engine, and all parts of the diesel engine are supported by the body. The strength, rigidity, shock resistance and other performances of the body play a decisive role in the normal operation of the whole diesel engine. The body structure is complex, the size precision requirement is high, and the casting technology is difficult. The casting body of large diesel engine is generally produced by high-strength gray cast iron and high-strength ductile cast iron. After more than 60 years of development in China, the manufacturing technology of ductile cast iron has been very mature, and the manufacturing cost is basically close to that of high-strength gray cast iron.

[0004] The lubrication of the moving pairs such as the crankshaft, connecting rod and camshaft of the diesel engine is realized by the lubricating oil provided by the oil channel of the body. The size and quality of the oil channel play a crucial role in the operation of the whole diesel engine. In addition, if the large amount of heat generated by the diesel engine cannot be transferred out of the working part in time, the diesel engine will not work normally. The medium for transferring the heat energy generated by the diesel engine is the water provided by the water channel of the diesel engine. If the pressure and flow of the circulating water are insufficient due to various reasons, the temperature of the working parts of the diesel engine will be high and the diesel engine will not work normally. Therefore, the quality of the oil channel and water channel of the diesel engine body is very important to the whole diesel engine.

[0005] For a long time, the casting sand core of large diesel engine body produced in China is seriously fragmented, the number of sand cores is large, the operation is complicated, the quality of the inner and outer surfaces of the casting is poor, and the size precision is low.

[0006] Defects of the prior art:

[0007] The main oil channel and water channel of the large diesel engine body generally have three forming ways, which are expansion pipe, cast-in steel pipe and sand casting.

[0008] The expansion pipe is a way of embedding a steel pipe between each file to form a main oil channel and water channel by plastic deformation after the body is machined. This way is realized in the mechanical machining stage.

[0009] Both the cast-in steel pipe and the sand casting method are implemented in the blank casting stage. Both methods are implemented in production practice. Generally, the oil passage is cast in the steel pipe more, the water pipe is cast in the sand more, and the oil passage and the water passage are rarely cast in the steel pipe or cast in the sand at the same time, which is mainly due to the fact that the oil passage is formed by machining, and the cooling water passage into each cylinder is often formed by casting.

[0010] The cast-in steel pipe is a method of placing a seamless steel pipe of a certain size at the position of the oil passage or the water passage of the body, and the steel pipe is covered by the molten iron to form an integrated casting hole during pouring.

[0011] The main problem of the cast-in steel pipe method is that the steel pipe and the body have different materials, and there is a large gap in properties such as melting point and shrinkage rate, which makes it difficult for the steel pipe and the body to better fuse, and a certain gap often appears between the body and the steel pipe, as shown in Figure 9 and 10 In addition, when the camshaft and the crankshaft oil passage are machined, the gap between the steel pipe and the body in the main oil passage will increase due to the drilling pressure, so that there will be lubricating oil between the steel pipe and the body during the operation of the body, and migration will occur. These gaps will retain some metal debris generated during machining, and these metal foreign matters often cause the body to have unknown reasons for cylinder pulling and abnormal wear of the friction pair, which has a very adverse effect on the service life and safe operation of the diesel engine. In addition, the cast-in steel pipe will deform and bend due to insufficient strength and stiffness, so that the wall thickness around the oil passage or the water passage will be locally thinned, and the size of the oil passage or the water passage cannot meet the requirements, as shown in Figure 11 To reduce the deformation of the steel pipe, a certain number of core supports are generally used to fix the steel pipe, but oil or water will seep out along the gap between the core support and the body, which often causes the diesel engine to leak. Diesel engine leakage is a fatal problem in the diesel engine industry in China, and is also one of the main bottlenecks restricting the development of diesel engines in China.

[0012] The sand casting method is to set a sand core at the corresponding position of the oil passage or the water passage of the body, and then clean the sand in the oil passage and the water passage of the body after pouring the molten iron, to finally form the oil passage or the water passage of the body.

[0013] For the method of forming the oil channel and water channel of diesel engine body with sand core, since the oil channel and water channel of large diesel engine body are slender pipes with large length-diameter ratio (length / diameter is generally greater than 20), the rigidity of the sand core is poor, and the sand core will deform due to the change of gravity and buoyancy at different time during pouring. The general solution to this problem is to divide the sand core of the oil channel and water channel into multiple sections, and each section is fixed by using a core support. However, this method results in the formation of many sand core butt joints inside the oil and water pipes, which are difficult to clean due to the small size of the pipes (generally less than 100mm) and the limited space for cleaning tools. In addition, the use of core support often causes oil and water to seep out of the oil and water channels, which often leads to a decrease in water pressure and oil pressure, and the diesel engine cannot work normally.

[0014] Due to the backwardness of mold manufacturing means and the actual situation of worker operation, the types and quantities of sand cores of our large diesel engine body are numerous. Generally, the sand cores of the engine body include cylinder hole sand core, camshaft sand core, air cavity sand core, crank cavity sand core, engine body two side surface sand core, bottom plate sand core, etc., as shown in Figure 12 The size control deviation is large during the process of box matching, there are many skin joints inside and outside the casting, and the cleaning difficulty is large. The residual skin joints after cleaning affect the quality of the inner and outer surfaces of the casting, and the size uniformity and stability of the finished engine body are poor. In addition, a large amount of skin joints consume too much molten iron, which increases the cost of the engine body. Therefore, it is necessary to improve it. SUMMARY

[0015] The technical problem solved by the present application is to provide a diesel engine body sand core integrated combination casting method. The present application designs a whole core bone with a deformation prevention function, and integrally manufactures an oil and water channel double pipe whole sand core with a slender oil channel and water channel, which avoids the size deviation caused by separate casting of two holes, avoids the internal skin joint formed by casting multiple sand cores, and avoids the leakage and oil and water pollution caused by deformation, bending and gap of cast steel pipes. By combining and coating different coating processes on the surface of the oil and water channel double pipe whole sand core, the cleanliness of the inner wall of the slender high-temperature cavity pipe is improved, and the production efficiency at the cleaning stage is improved. By manufacturing a gas cavity whole sand core, the internal size and surface quality of the gas cavity are improved. By integrating the cylinder hole, crank cavity and bottom plate elements, the internal and external shapes of the cylinder hole, crank cavity and bottom plate are formed at one time, the number of sand cores is reduced, the internal and external size precision and surface quality of the engine body are ensured, and the efficiency is improved.

The main chemical component control in the smelting process in the inventive example is shown in Table 2. The pouring temperature, time and other parameter control in the inventive example is shown in Table 3.

[0080] By comparing the test results with the standard parameters of the main evaluation indicators, it can be seen that the QT400-15A with different components above all meet the performance requirements of the diesel engine body. At the same time, the inventive cast engine body does not leak in the water channel and oil channel after a 1.5 MPa, 30-minute water pressure test. The engine body is checked and processed, and the size and shape meet the requirements. Therefore, the modeling, smelting and pouring process of the diesel engine body is feasible.

[0087] The present application avoids the size deviation caused by separate casting of two holes, avoids the internal skin seam caused by casting of multiple sand cores, avoids the leakage and oil and water pollution caused by deformation, bending and gap of cast-in steel pipes, etc. by designing an integral core bone with a deformation prevention function, and by one-time integral production of an oil and water channel double-pipe integral sand core with an elongated oil channel and water channel. The cleanliness of the inner wall of the elongated high-temperature cavity pipe is improved by combining different coating processes on the surface of the oil and water channel double-pipe integral sand core, and the production efficiency in the cleaning stage is improved. The internal size and surface quality of the air cavity are improved by making an air cavity integral sand core. The internal and external shapes of the cylinder hole, crank cavity and foot plate elements are formed at one time by integrating the cylinder hole, crank cavity and foot plate elements, reducing the number of sand cores, ensuring the internal and external size precision and surface quality of the engine body, and improving the efficiency.
