A sand printing device stacks sand layer by layer, and then sprays resin (such as cold forming furan resin and phenolic resin) according to the shape of the part section through a nozzle, so as to bond the sand together, thereby printing a very complex and precise model. The automation and precision can be greatly improved, the process cycle is greatly shortened, and the manufacturing cost is reduced.

[0003] The sand printing device can print different types of products according to different types of sand, but the inventor found that when it is used to print rock samples, different types of sand are needed for printing because the actual rock generally has different characteristics according to different layers.

[0051] The following will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figures 1-8 The application is further described in detail.

[0052] The application discloses a sand laying part capable of realizing sand feeding of various types of sand, which is mainly applied to a sand printing device.

[0053] Embodiment 1

A sliding frame 2 is horizontally arranged in the base frame 1, the sliding frame 2 being vertically slidably connected to the base frame 1, and the length direction of the sliding frame 2 being the same as that of the base frame 1. A push cylinder 21 is vertically fixed to the lower side of the base frame 1 corresponding to the sliding frame 2, and the telescopic rod of the push cylinder 21 is arranged upward and fixed to the sliding frame 2. The push cylinder 21 drives the telescopic rod to extend or retract, thereby driving the sliding frame 2 to move vertically in the base frame 1.

[0055] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 A plurality of sand boxes 3 are arranged on the sliding frame 2 along the length direction thereof, the sand boxes 3 being vertically arranged and the upper ends of the sand boxes 3 being open, a sand pushing plate 31 being horizontally arranged at the inner lower end of each sand box 3, the side edge of the sand pushing plate 31 abutting against the inner circumferential wall of the sand box 3, and a plurality of limiting protrusions 32 being fixed to the lower end of the sand box 3, the limiting protrusions 32 being capable of abutting against the lower side of the sand pushing plate 31 when the sand pushing plate 31 moves downward to the lower end of the sand box 3, thereby limiting the sand pushing plate 31 from being separated from the lower side of the sand box 3.

[0056] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3, a traction member 321 is arranged between the limiting stop protrusion 32 and the sand pushing plate 31, for limiting the sand pushing plate 31 from separating from the upper side of the sand box 3. Specifically, the traction member 321 can adopt a soft traction rope, so as to realize the fixation of the sand pushing plate 31 and the limiting stop protrusion 32, and ensure that the sand pushing plate 31 can move vertically while limiting the movement distance of the sand pushing plate 31. In addition, the traction member 321 can also be a tension spring, which pulls the sand pushing plate 31 to move towards the limiting stop protrusion 32, so as to realize the vertical movement of the sand pushing plate 31, and the tension spring can make the sand pushing plate 31 move downward quickly after pushing sand to reset.

[0057] With reference to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the lower side of the sliding frame 2 corresponding to each sand box 3 is also fixed with a sand pushing cylinder 33, the sand pushing cylinder 33 is vertically arranged and the telescopic rod is upwardly arranged, and the telescopic rod of each sand pushing cylinder 33 can be extended to push the sand pushing plate 31 of each sand box 3 to move vertically, so as to push the sand in the sand box 3 out.

[0058] When it is needed to fill sand, the telescopic rod is retracted by the lifting cylinder 21, the sliding frame 2 is driven to move vertically downward, and the sand box 3 is driven to move downward synchronously, so as to fill the sand in the sand box 3. After the filling of the sand in the sand box 3 is completed, the sliding frame 2 is driven to move vertically upward by the lifting cylinder 21, and the plurality of sand boxes 3 are driven to move upward synchronously to the working position.

[0059] Further, in order to facilitate the filling of the sand in the sand box 3, the sand box 3 and the sliding frame 2 can be connected in a detachable manner, for example, the sand box 3 is fixed on the sliding frame 2 by using a buckle, or the sand box 3 is fixed on the sliding frame 2 by using a plug-in manner, that is, a plug slot is formed on the sliding frame 2 along the width direction of the sliding frame 2, the lower end of the sand box 3 is horizontally plugged into the plug slot, or the sand box 3 is fixed on the sliding frame 2 by using a bolt, that is, the sand box 3 can be taken off from the sliding frame 2 to fill sand, and after the filling of the sand in the sand box 3 is completed, the sand box 3 can be installed on the sliding frame 2.

[0060] In addition, the sand box 3 and the sliding frame 2 can also be connected in a rotatable manner instead of the detachable manner, which will be described in detail below.

[0061] With reference to Figure 4The upper surface of the slide 2 is provided with a rotating shaft 22 on one side, the axis of the rotating shaft 22 is in the same direction as the length of the slide 2, the base frame 1 is provided with a rotating driving member 221 such as a motor on one end corresponding to the rotating shaft 22, for driving the rotating shaft 22 to rotate back and forth. The lower end of the sand box 3 is fixed to the rotating shaft 22 on one side. In this way, when the slide 2 drives the sand box 3 to descend, the rotating shaft 22 is driven to rotate by the rotating driving member 221, which can drive the sand box 3 to rotate towards one side of the slide 2, so that the sand box 3 is inclined at a certain angle. In this way, it is convenient to realize sand filling. In addition, when the rotating shaft 22 drives the sand box 3 to rotate to horizontal or downwardly inclined, the residual sand in the sand box 3 can be quickly poured out, which is simple to operate.

[0062] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 5 , the upper side of the base frame 1 is provided with a rolling curtain plate 4, and the rolling curtain plate 4 is made of a hard and curlable material, such as a rolled steel material. The upper end of the base frame 1 is provided with a sliding groove 11 on both sides along the length direction, and the two sides of the rolling curtain plate 4 are inserted into the sliding groove 11 and can slide in the sliding groove 11. A slot 41 is formed in the rolling curtain plate 4, and the slot 41 has the same size as the upper opening of the sand box 3.

[0063] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 5 , the base frame 1 is provided with two reversing rollers 12 on the side away from the sand box 3, the axis of the reversing roller 12 is in the width direction of the base frame 1, and the two reversing rollers 12 on the same side of the sand box 3 are vertically arranged. The base frame 1 is further provided with a winding roller 13 corresponding to the lower side of the reversing roller 12, the axis of the winding roller 13 is in the same direction as the axis of the reversing roller 12, and the base frame 1 is fixed with a winding driving member 14 such as a motor on one end corresponding to the winding roller 13. The two ends of the rolling curtain plate 4 extend out of the sliding groove 11 of the base frame 1, then pass through the two reversing rollers 12 and are fixed to the winding roller 13, and rotate synchronously in the same direction with the two winding rollers 13. The synchronous sliding of the rolling curtain plate 4 can be realized, so that the slot 41 of the rolling curtain plate 4 is aligned with the slot 41 of each sand box 3 in turn.

[0064] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 5, so that a plurality of types of sand can be respectively stored in a plurality of sand boxes 3, when a type of sand is needed, the shutter plate 4 is moved to align the slot 41 of the shutter plate 4 with the opening of the sand box 3 needed, and then the sand pushing plate 31 is moved upward to push the sand out of the sand box 3 to protrude from the shutter plate 4, when the sand needs to be replaced, the shutter plate 4 is moved to align the slot 41 of the shutter plate 4 with the opening of another sand box 3, and then the sand pushing plate 31 at the lower side of the sand box 3 pushes the sand out, so that the sand can be switched without stopping the machine or taking the sand out of the sand box 3, thereby improving the sanding efficiency of a single sample when printing a plurality of types of sand, and improving the printing efficiency of the sand mold.

[0065] Embodiment 2

[0066] The sand feeding component can realize feeding of a plurality of types of sand, and the difference compared with Embodiment 1 is that:

[0067] Referring to Figure 6 , the sand pushing cylinder 33 is arranged on the sliding frame 2, the sand pushing cylinder 33 is vertically arranged, the telescopic rod of the sand pushing cylinder 33 is also arranged upward, the sand pushing cylinder 33 is slidably connected to the sliding frame 2 along the length direction of the sliding frame 2, and the telescopic frame 42 is fixed between the slot 41 of the shutter plate 4 and the sand pushing cylinder 33, so that after the sliding of the shutter plate 4 to align the slot 41 with the opening of the sand box 3, the telescopic frame 42 can drive the sand pushing cylinder 33 to move synchronously to the lower side of the sand box 3 corresponding to the slot 41 of the shutter plate 4.

[0068] In this way, only one sand pushing cylinder 33 needs to move synchronously with the shutter plate 4, and the sand feeding operation of the sand box 3 needed can be realized.

[0069] The sand feeding component can realize feeding of a plurality of types of sand, and the difference compared with Embodiment 1 is that:

[0070] Referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the sand feeding component can realize feeding of a plurality of types of sand, and the difference compared with Embodiment 1 is that:

[0071] Referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the sand mold carrying component 5 is arranged at one end of the base frame 1 in the length direction, the base frame 1 is vertically provided with a containing groove corresponding to the position of the sand mold carrying component 5, the sand mold carrying component 5 comprises a sand frame 51 fixed to the lower side of the containing groove and vertically arranged, the size of the sand frame 51 is the same as that of the containing groove, the upper and lower ends of the sand frame 51 are both open, and the lower side of the sand frame 51 is horizontally provided with a sand bed 52, and the side wall of the sand bed 52 can abut against the inner side wall of the sand frame 51. The upper surface of the sand bed 52 is horizontally provided with a detachable pad 53, and the detachable pad 53 is bolted to the sand bed 52.

[0072] Referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the base frame 1 is fixed with a pushing cylinder 54 corresponding to the lower side of the sand bed 52, the pushing cylinder 54 is vertically arranged, and the telescopic rod of the pushing cylinder 54 can abut against the sand bed 52. In operation, the pushing cylinder 54 drives the telescopic rod to extend, that is, the sand bed 52 can be pushed to move vertically along the sand frame 51 until the upper side of the sand bed 52 is lower than the upper side of the base frame 1 by the thickness of a layer of sand.

[0073] Referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the sand laying part 6 comprises a sand laying roller 61, which is horizontally arranged on the upper side of the base frame 1, the axis direction of the sand laying roller 61 is the same as the width direction of the base frame 1, and the lower side of the sand laying roller 61 abuts against the upper surface of the base frame 1.

[0074] Referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the upper surface of the base frame 1 is fixed with guide rails 62 on both sides, both ends of the sand laying roller 61 are fixed with sliding seats 63, both sliding seats 63 are slidingly connected to the guide rails 62, and a guide rack 64 is fixed along the guide rail 62 on one side of the base frame 1 corresponding to the guide rail 62. A guide gear 65 is also rotatably arranged on one sliding seat 63 corresponding to the guide rack 64, the guide gear 65 is engaged with the guide rack 64, and a reciprocating motor for driving the guide gear 65 to rotate is also fixed on the sliding seat 63.

[0075] In operation, the reciprocating motor drives the gear to rotate, and through the engagement of the guide gear 65 and the guide rack 64, the sliding seat 63 can be driven to reciprocate along the guide rail 62, thereby driving the sand laying roller 61 to reciprocate between the slot 41 of the rolling shutter plate 4 and the container groove. Further, after the uppermost sand of the sand box 3 is pushed out of the slot 41 to the upper side of the rolling shutter plate 4 by the sand laying part, the sand laying roller 61 moves from the rolling shutter plate 4 to the sand bed 52, thereby pushing the sand on the upper side of the rolling shutter plate 4 to the sand bed 52 and laying the sand flat.

[0076] Referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the glue spraying part 7 comprises a horizontal rail 71 fixed horizontally on the upper side of the base frame 1, the length direction of the horizontal rail 71 is the same as the length direction of the base frame 1, a vertical rail 72 is slidingly arranged on the horizontal rail 71 along the length direction of the horizontal rail 71, and the length direction of the vertical rail 72 is perpendicular to the length direction of the horizontal rail 71. A glue spraying head 73 is slidingly arranged on the vertical rail 72 along the length direction of the vertical rail 72. The horizontal rail 71 is fixed with a first driving part for driving the vertical rail 72 to move, and the vertical rail 72 is fixed with a second driving part for driving the horizontal rail 71 to move, and the first driving part and the second driving part can be realized by horizontal pushing cylinders.

[0077] Referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8The three glue nozzles 731 are fixed on the glue spraying head 73, and a plurality of glue grooves 74 are also fixed on one side of the base frame 1. The glue pipes 75 are connected between each glue groove 74 and the glue nozzle 731. In this way, since different types of sand require different binders, a plurality of glue nozzles 731 are arranged, and the glue nozzles 731 are arranged corresponding to each glue groove 74, so that the binders can be supplied to each glue nozzle 731 respectively. Therefore, the glue nozzles 731 do not need to be frequently cleaned and replaced, and can be effectively applied to different sand printing.

[0078] In summary, when the sand mold needs to be printed, the sand bed 52 is first raised to the upper side of the base frame 1 by a thickness of one layer of sand, the glue nozzle 731 is moved by the glue spraying head 73, the binder is sprayed on the upper side of the sand bed 52 according to the preset pattern, the sand in the sand box 3 is pushed to the upper side of the rolling shutter plate 4 by the sand pushing member, and then the sand is pushed to move towards the sand bed 52 by the sand laying roller 61, so that the sand is laid on the upper side of the sand bed 52. At this time, the part of the sand bed 52 coated with the binder can be bonded and fixed. At this time, the bottom layer of the sand mold can be completed. Then the sand laying roller 61 retreats, and the sand laid on the sand bed 52 is sprayed with the binder according to the pattern slice shape of the next layer by the glue spraying member 7. Then the sand bed 52 is lowered by one layer of sand mold height, and the sand mold on the upper side of the sand bed 52 is lowered synchronously with the base frame 1. The sand pushing member continues to push the sand out of the upper side of the rolling shutter plate 4, and then the sand laying roller 61 moves again to realize the bonding of the sand mold on the sand bed 52. In this way, the required sand mold printing can be achieved by continuous reciprocation.

[0079] When other sand needs to be replaced, the slot 41 is moved to the upper side of another sand box 3 by moving the rolling shutter plate 4, another glue nozzle 731 is used, and the previous printing steps are repeated again to realize the rapid printing of a single sample of various types of sand.
