Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of casting technology, and in particular to a casting apparatus and casting method for a metal mold. Background Technology

[0002] Chinese patent application number CN202223478255.8 discloses a bearing seat casting device, including a rotating table, a mold mounting plate rotatably mounted on the upper end of the rotating table, a lower mold fixedly mounted on the middle of the upper end of the mold mounting plate, an upper mold provided on the upper end of the lower mold, a mold locking groove opened at the upper edge of the upper mold, and several mold locking mechanisms fixedly mounted at the upper edge of the mold mounting plate.

[0003] Regarding the aforementioned related technologies, the inventors believe that during the casting of disc-shaped parts, it is easy for the cast parts to adhere to the upper mold, requiring manual intervention to separate the cast parts from the upper mold, which is inconvenient for unloading and increases the workload of the workers. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To facilitate material preparation and reduce the workload of workers, this invention provides a casting device and casting method for metal molds.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a casting apparatus for a metal mold, which adopts the following technical solution: a casting apparatus for a metal mold includes a support, an upper mold and a lower mold provided on the support, and an adjusting component connected to the support for adjusting the position of the upper mold relative to the lower mold; a striking component connected to the support, the striking component being used to strike a workpiece adsorbed on the upper mold; and a receiving component connected to the support, the receiving component being used to receive a workpiece falling from the upper mold after being struck by the striking component, and a control component provided on the support for controlling the position of the receiving component relative to the support.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the striking component strikes the workpiece, which facilitates the unloading of the workpiece and reduces the workload of the workers. There is no need for manual striking of the workpiece to unload it, which improves the automation level of the device. The receiving component catches the workpiece after it falls, which further reduces the workload of the workers and improves the automation level of the device.

[0007] Optionally, the bracket includes a first support plate and a second support plate, which are arranged in parallel and spaced apart. The first support plate is vertically positioned above the second support plate. The adjusting component includes a drive motor and an adjusting plate. The drive motor is connected to the bottom surface of the first support plate, and the output end of the drive motor faces the second support plate and is connected to the adjusting plate. The upper mold is connected to the bottom surface of the adjusting plate, and the lower mold is connected to the top surface of the second support plate.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the position of the upper mold relative to the lower mold can be easily controlled by the drive motor, making it easier to pour raw materials into the cavity between the upper and lower molds, to separate the upper and lower molds, and to remove the cast workpiece.

[0009] Optionally, the control assembly is provided in two sets, and the two sets of control assemblies are spaced apart along the length direction of the adjusting plate. The control assembly includes a base plate, a first connecting rod, a second connecting rod, a third connecting rod, and a fourth connecting rod. One end of the first connecting rod is hinged to the side wall of the adjusting plate, and the other end of the first connecting rod is hinged to one end of the third connecting rod. One end of the second connecting rod is hinged to the side wall of the second support plate, and the other end of the second connecting rod is hinged to one end of the fourth connecting rod. The middle part of the first connecting rod is hinged to the middle part of the second connecting rod. The end of the third connecting rod away from the first connecting rod is hinged to the end of the fourth connecting rod away from the second connecting rod. One end of the base plate is rotatably connected to the end of the third connecting rod away from the first connecting rod. A connecting column is connected to the middle part of the second connecting rod. A first sliding groove extending along the length direction of the base plate is opened on the side wall of the base plate. The connecting column is slidably inserted into the first sliding groove. The receiving assembly is provided on the two base plates.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the structure is simple and stable, eliminating the need for an additional power source to control the position of the receiving component, thus saving costs and facilitating use and control over the timing of the receiving component's movement. When the upper mold position is controlled by the drive motor, the receiving component moves accordingly. When the drive motor moves the upper mold away from the lower mold, the distance between the first and second support plates increases, causing the first and second connecting rods to rotate, and the third and fourth connecting rods to rotate. The end of the third connecting rod connected to the fourth connecting rod moves towards the support, thereby moving the receiving component towards the support, making it easier for the receiving component to receive workpieces attached to the bottom surface of the upper mold. When the drive motor moves the upper mold towards the lower mold, the distance between the first and second support plates decreases, causing the first and second connecting rods to rotate, and the third and fourth connecting rods to rotate. The end of the third connecting rod connected to the fourth connecting rod moves away from the support, thereby moving the receiving component away from the support, facilitating the casting of workpieces, reducing structural conflicts, and simplifying use.

[0011] Optionally, the striking assembly includes a first cylinder, a connecting pipe, a first connecting frame, a rotating rod, a striking rod, a rotating block, and a second connecting frame. The second connecting frame is connected to the top surface of the base plate, the first cylinder is connected to the bottom surface of the first support plate, the connecting pipe is slidably inserted into the side wall of the upper mold, the output end of the first cylinder is connected to the connecting pipe, the first connecting frame is connected to the side wall of the upper mold, the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the first connecting frame, a torsion spring is provided between the rotating rod and the first connecting frame, the striking rod is connected to the rotating rod, the rotating block is connected to the rotating rod, the second connecting frame abuts against the rotating block, and the rotating rod abuts against the connecting pipe.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, a connecting pipe is set up and slidably inserted into the side wall of the upper mold. Before casting, the connecting pipe is controlled by the first cylinder to move away from the upper mold. During casting, the raw material flows into the connecting pipe and cools and solidifies. The connecting pipe is then controlled by the first cylinder to move closer to the upper mold, exposing the part of the workpiece that was originally located inside the connecting pipe. This makes it easier to knock the workpiece to separate it from the upper mold, thus improving the previous situation where it was inconvenient to knock the workpiece inside the upper mold.

[0013] The second connecting frame is connected to the base plate. When the base plate moves, it drives the second connecting frame to move. The second connecting frame abuts against the rotating block, and the second connecting frame pushes the rotating block to move, causing the rotating rod to rotate. As the rotating rod rotates, the striking rod strikes the exposed part of the workpiece, making it easier for the workpiece to fall off and for the workpiece to be separated from the upper mold. This reduces the workload of the workers, eliminates the need for manual striking of the workpiece to separate it from the upper mold, and improves the automation level of the device. It also eliminates the need for an additional power source to drive the striking rod, saving costs. It is easy to control the timing of the striking rod's strike and the timing of the workpiece unloading, making it easy to use.

[0014] Optionally, the receiving assembly includes a connecting frame and a receiving plate. The connecting frame is slidably connected to the top surface of the base plate, and the receiving plate is connected to the connecting frame. A limiting member is provided between the receiving plate and the connecting frame for adjusting the position of the receiving plate relative to the connecting frame.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the receiving plate moves relative to the connecting frame, which facilitates the control of the receiving plate position. The receiving plate moves towards the bottom surface of the upper mold, reducing the impact on the workpiece during the workpiece unloading process, reducing the workpiece damage caused by collision, and improving the stability of the device.

[0016] Optionally, the limiting member is provided in two sets, and the two sets of limiting members are spaced apart along the width direction of the base plate. The limiting member includes a return spring, a first adjusting rod, a second adjusting rod, and an adjusting block. The limiting rod is connected to the bottom surface of the upper mold. The two return springs are respectively connected to one of the base plates. One end of the return spring is connected to one end of the base plate and extends along the length direction of the base plate. The other end of the return spring is connected to the side wall of the connecting frame. The limiting rod abuts against the connecting frame. The first adjusting rod and the second adjusting rod are both inclinedly arranged between the receiving plate and the connecting frame. One end of the first adjusting rod is hinged to the bottom surface of the receiving plate, and the other end of the first adjusting rod is hinged to the bottom surface of the receiving plate. One end of the second adjusting rod is connected to a second sliding block, one end of the second adjusting rod is hinged to the side wall of the connecting frame, and the other end of the second adjusting rod is connected to a first sliding block. The middle part of the first adjusting rod is hinged to the middle part of the second adjusting rod. A first connecting groove extending along the length direction of the base plate is provided on the receiving plate, and the first sliding block is slidably inserted into the first connecting groove. A second connecting groove extending along the length direction of the base plate is provided on the side wall of the connecting frame, and the second sliding block is slidably inserted into the second connecting groove. The two adjusting blocks are respectively connected to one of the base plates. The adjusting block is located on the side of the second adjusting rod away from the return spring, and the adjusting block abuts against the second sliding block.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, when the limiting rod abuts against the connecting frame, the drive motor is controlled to continue moving the upper mold away from the lower mold, and the bottom plate continues to move horizontally. Because the connecting frame is abutted by the limiting rod, the connecting frame slides along the length of the bottom plate until the two adjusting blocks abut against a second sliding block. Under the action of the adjusting blocks, the first adjusting rod and the second adjusting rod are pushed to rotate, and the receiving plate moves upward in the vertical direction and moves towards the bottom surface of the upper mold. There is no need to set up an additional power source for controlling the position of the receiving plate, which saves costs and is easy to use.

[0018] Optionally, a connecting plate is connected to the bottom surface of the base plate, and an arc-shaped second sliding groove is formed on the connecting plate. The second sliding groove is connected to the end of the first sliding groove near the limiting rod, and the connecting column is slidably inserted into the second sliding groove.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, it is easy to tilt the base plate, thereby making the receiving plate tilted outside the support, which facilitates the unloading of workpieces on the receiving plate and makes it easy to use.

[0020] Optionally, the bracket further includes two first bases, a second base, and a second cylinder. The two first bases are symmetrically arranged along the second support plate, and the top surfaces of the two first bases are hinged to the side wall of the second support plate. The second cylinder is located between the two first bases, and the second base is spaced apart from the first base. One end of the second cylinder is hinged to the second base, and the output end of the second cylinder is hinged to the side wall of the second support plate.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, it is easy to tilt the support column, so that the upper and lower molds are tilted, which facilitates the casting of raw materials into the cavity between the upper and lower molds, making it easy to use and control.

[0022] Secondly, the present invention provides a method for casting a metal mold, which adopts the following technical solution: A method for casting a metal mold, comprising:

[0023] S1, control the drive motor to move the upper mold toward the lower mold until the upper mold and the lower mold are in contact; control the second cylinder to tilt the bracket; control the first cylinder to move the connecting pipe away from the upper mold.

[0024] S2, the workers pour casting material into the upper mold and the lower mold, and wait for the casting material to cool;

[0025] S3, control the second cylinder to make the bracket vertically positioned, and make both the first support plate and the second support plate horizontally positioned;

[0026] S4, control the first cylinder to move the connecting pipe toward the upper mold, and expose the workpiece part that was originally located in the connecting pipe;

[0027] S5, control the drive motor to move the upper mold away from the lower mold, the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod rotate with the movement of the upper mold, the end of the third connecting rod and the fourth connecting rod connected moves horizontally towards the adjusting plate, the connecting column slides along the second sliding groove and the first sliding groove, the bottom plate moves towards the adjusting plate, and the bottom plate moves between the adjusting plate and the second support plate;

[0028] S6, when the limiting rod abuts against the connecting frame, the drive motor is controlled to continue moving the upper mold away from the lower mold, the base plate continues to move horizontally, and the connecting frame slides along the length of the base plate because it is abutted by the limiting rod, until the two adjusting blocks abut against one of the second sliding blocks respectively. Under the action of the adjusting blocks, the first adjusting rod and the second adjusting rod are pushed to rotate, the receiving plate moves upward, and the receiving plate moves towards the bottom surface of the upper mold;

[0029] S7, the second connecting frame moves with the base plate, the second connecting frame abuts against the rotating block, drives the rotating rod to rotate, the striking rod strikes the workpiece, and the workpiece falls downward onto the receiving plate;

[0030] S8, control the drive motor to move the upper mold closer to the lower mold. The torsion spring between the first connecting frame and the rotating rod resets the rotating rod. During the movement of the base plate, the return spring pulls the connecting frame. Under the gravity of the workpiece on the receiving plate, the receiving plate moves downward and abuts against the connecting frame. The base plate moves outside the bracket. The connecting column slides into the first slide groove and the second slide groove. The base plate is tilted for easy use next time.

[0031] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0032] 1. The structure is simple and stable, requiring no additional power source to control the position of the receiving component, saving costs and making it easy to use and control the timing of the receiving component's movement. The receiving component moves by controlling the position of the upper mold via the drive motor.

[0033] 2. A connecting pipe is installed, which is slidably inserted into the side wall of the upper mold. Before casting, the connecting pipe is controlled by the first cylinder to move away from the upper mold. During casting, the raw material flows into the connecting pipe and cools and solidifies. The connecting pipe is then controlled by the first cylinder to move closer to the upper mold, exposing the part of the workpiece that was originally inside the connecting pipe. This makes it easier to knock the workpiece to separate it from the upper mold, thus improving the previous situation where it was inconvenient to knock the workpiece inside the upper mold.

[0034] 3. The second connecting frame is connected to the base plate. When the base plate moves, it drives the second connecting frame to move. The second connecting frame abuts against the rotating block. The second connecting frame pushes the rotating block to move, causing the rotating rod to rotate. As the rotating rod rotates, the striking rod strikes the exposed part of the workpiece, making it easier for the workpiece to fall off and for the workpiece to be separated from the upper mold. This reduces the workload of the workers, eliminating the need for manual striking of the workpiece to separate it from the upper mold, thus improving the automation level of the device. It also eliminates the need for an additional power source to drive the striking rod, saving costs. It is easy to control the timing of the striking rod's strike and the timing of the workpiece unloading, making it easy to use.

[0035] 4. The receiving plate moves relative to the connecting frame, which facilitates the control of the receiving plate position. The receiving plate moves towards the bottom surface of the upper mold, reducing the impact on the workpiece during the workpiece unloading process, reducing the possibility of workpiece damage due to collision, and improving the stability of the device.
