Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of aero-engine component manufacturing technology, and specifically relates to a casting system for fan-shaped single-crystal structure castings. Background Technology
[0002] Investment casting technology is widely used in aero engines, especially in the structural components of the low-pressure turbine section. Due to the high operating temperature, complex component structure, and high dimensional accuracy requirements, precision casting is usually the only option. As engine operating temperatures continue to rise, conventional equiaxed crystal castings can no longer meet the performance requirements of engines, and single crystal casting is gradually being adopted for the structural components of the low-pressure turbine section.
[0003] The fan-shaped single-crystal structure casting is formed by single-crystal precision casting. It has a rotating flow channel surface, mounting edge, axial turntable and process hole. The wall thickness change ratio is as high as 30:3 and there are 7 wall thickness change areas. The overall structure is complex. Traditional single-crystal structure casting gating systems are difficult to guarantee the integrity of single crystals in fan-shaped single-crystal structure castings with complex structures. It is impossible to avoid defects such as impurities, shell expansion, fire run, and porosity that are prone to occur during the casting process. The scrap rate of castings is high, which consumes a lot of master alloy and production resources and has high manufacturing costs. Summary of the Invention

The lower end of the central column is fixedly connected to the center of the base, and the central column is arranged perpendicular to the base. The top of the central column is connected to the accumulator, and the upper surface of the accumulator is connected to the pouring cup. The individual wax model systems include a crystallizer, a crystallization stage, and a component wax model connected sequentially from bottom to top.

The upper end of the auxiliary crystal guide riser I is connected to the lower surface of the axial turntable, and the lower end of the auxiliary crystal guide riser I is connected to the middle of the top surface of the crystallization stage.
[0009] The upper end face of the wax model of the structural component is connected to a first shrinkage riser, the cross-sectional shape of which matches the upper cross-sectional shape of the wax model. Several anti-expansion protrusions are provided on the surface of the first shrinkage riser facing the central column tube. The end of the anti-expansion protrusion connected to the first shrinkage riser is a cylindrical structure, and the protruding end is a hemispherical structure. The axial turntable is connected to the corresponding first shrinkage riser through a second shrinkage riser with a plate-like structure.

[0010] The feeding riser 1 is connected to the pouring cup 1 through the venting riser. The upper end of the venting riser is connected to the pouring cup, and the lower end is connected to the feeding riser 1 through an S-shaped bend. The S-shaped bends of adjacent venting risers are connected by reinforcing risers. Several reinforcing risers are connected end to end to form a closed loop structure.

[0027] The invention will now be fully described using a fan-shaped single-crystal structure casting with a length of 108mm, a width of 69mm, and a height of 57mm as an example.
[0028] See appendix Figure 1 , 6 A fan-shaped single-crystal structure casting system includes a main gating system 19 and five individual wax pattern systems 20. The individual wax pattern systems 20 are connected to the main gating system 19 through vent risers 5 and bottom gating systems 6. The five individual wax pattern systems 20 are evenly arranged around the main gating system 19.
[0029] See appendix Figure 2The main gating system 19 includes a pouring cup 1, a central column tube 8, a sump 2, and a base plate 15. The base plate 15 is a circular disc structure, horizontally positioned at the bottom of the system, with a diameter of 300mm. The lower end of the central column tube 8 is fixedly connected to the center of the base plate 15. The central column tube 8 is arranged perpendicular to the base plate 15 and provides support for the entire gating system. The overall height of the central column tube 8 is 260mm. The central column tube 8 contains an inverted conical apex with a large circle diameter of 29mm, a small circle diameter of 25mm, and a height of 10mm. The remaining part of the column tube 8 has a diameter of 25mm and a height of 250mm; the top of the middle column tube 8 is connected to a material accumulation plate 2 for storing high-temperature alloy liquid and injecting it into the lower gating system. The material accumulation plate 2 is a disc with an inner hole. The material accumulation plate 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the middle column tube 8 through the inner hole. The diameter of the material accumulation plate 2 is 128mm, the thickness is 8mm, and the inner hole diameter is 49mm. The lower surface of the material accumulation plate 2 is 260mm away from the upper surface of the base plate 15. The upper surface of the material accumulation plate 2 is connected to a pouring cup 1, which is used to receive the high-temperature alloy liquid flowing into the gating system.
[0030] See appendix Figure 3 , 4 The individual wax model system 20 includes a crystallizer 18, a crystallization stage 14, a component wax model 12, a first feeding riser 9, and a second feeding riser 7. The upper end of the individual wax model system 20 is connected to the pouring cup 1, and the lower end is connected to the base plate 15. Five individual wax model systems 20 are evenly arranged around the central column tube 8. The shape of the component wax model 12 is set according to the shape of the casting. The component wax model 12 is provided with an axial turntable 21. The side of the axial turntable 21 facing the central column tube 8 has a small hole 22, and the side of the axial turntable 21 facing away from the central column tube 8 has a large hole 23. The small hole 22 of the structural component wax model 12 An auxiliary crystal riser 20, 10, is vertically and centrally arranged. The auxiliary crystal riser 20 is a wax strip with a diameter of 3 mm. The auxiliary crystal riser 20 connects to the upper and lower inner walls of the small hole 22 and is used for single crystal growth. It guides the grain to the upper part of the small hole 22 and also serves as a shrinkage compensation function. An auxiliary crystal riser 31, 11, is vertically and centrally arranged. The auxiliary crystal riser 311 is a wax strip with a diameter of 4 mm. The auxiliary crystal riser 311 connects to the upper and lower inner walls of the large hole 23 and is used for single crystal growth. It guides the grain to the upper part of the large hole 23 and also serves as a shrinkage compensation function.
[0031] See appendix Figure 5The lower end face of the structural wax model 12 is connected to a crystallization platform 14 for single crystal solidification of the casting. The crystallization platform 14 has an irregular inverted triangular structure with rounded corners to reduce the possibility of impurity crystal formation. The lower end face of the structural wax model 12 is located within the upper end face of the crystallization platform 14, and the distance between their edges is 1mm-2mm. This prevents impurities generated in the edge area of the crystallization platform 14 from growing into the casting. At the same time, the local convex and concave structure formed at the connection improves the strength of the shell structure, making it less prone to shell cracks and reducing the risk of shell fire in the transition area between the crystallization platform and the casting. The ratio of the area of the upper end face of the crystallization platform 14 to the area of the lower end face of the structural wax model 12 is 4:1-3:1. If the area ratio is too small, it will increase the possibility of impurity crystal growth into the casting. If the area ratio is too large, it will waste the master alloy.
[0032] See appendix Figure 3 An auxiliary crystal guide riser 13 is provided between the axial turntable 21 and the crystallization stage 14. The auxiliary crystal guide riser 13 has a cuboid structure, with a radial length of 16 mm along the circumference of the base 15, a chordal width of 10 mm along the base 15, and an axial height of 10 mm along the central column tube 8. The upper end of the auxiliary crystal guide riser 13 is connected to the lower surface of the axial turntable 21, and the lower end of the auxiliary crystal guide riser 13 is connected to the middle of the top surface of the crystallization stage 14. It is used for single crystal growth, guiding the grains to the casting body. The lower end of the crystallization stage 14 is connected to the crystal guide 18. The crystal guide 18 adopts an existing technology structure and is used for grain selection. Five crystal guides 18 are evenly arranged around the central column tube 8 on the upper surface of the base 15. The upper end face of the wax model 12 is connected to a shrinkage riser 9. The cross-sectional shape of the shrinkage riser 9 matches the cross-sectional shape of the upper end of the structural wax model 12. The axial height of the shrinkage riser 9 along the central column tube 8 is 22mm. Five anti-expansion protrusions 4 are provided on the surface of the shrinkage riser 9 facing the central column tube 8. One end of the anti-expansion protrusion 4 connected to the shrinkage riser 9 is a cylinder with a height of 0.7mm and a diameter of 3mm, and the other end is a hemisphere with a diameter of 3mm. The five anti-expansion protrusions 4 are evenly arranged at a height of 126mm from the junction of the shrinkage riser 9 and the component wax model 12. The anti-expansion protrusions 4 are used to improve the local deformation resistance of the shell and prevent the shell from bulging and deforming locally under the action of high temperature alloy liquid. The axial turntable 21 is connected to the corresponding feeding riser 9 through a feeding riser 7 with a plate structure of 1mm thickness. The feeding riser 7 has a 90° arc corner and is bent into an inverted "L" shape. The lower end of the feeding riser 7 is vertically connected to the upper end of the axial turntable 21, and the upper end of the feeding riser 7 is vertically connected to the side of the upper end of the feeding riser 9.

The S-shaped bends of adjacent venting risers 5 are connected by a reinforcing riser 3 with a diameter of 6mm and a length of 118mm. The five reinforcing risers 3 are connected end to end to form a closed loop structure. The reinforcing risers 3 are used to improve the overall structural strength of the gating system, prevent the gating system from being damaged during the shell making process, and improve the overall strength of the shell.
[0034] See appendix Figure 6 The crystal puller 18 is connected to the accumulation tray 2 via the bottom gating 6. The bottom gating 6 is a wax strip with a diameter of 6 mm.

The upper end of the straight pipe section of the bottom gating 6 is connected to the lower surface of the accumulation tray 2. The upper end of the straight pipe section of the bottom gating 6 is inclined towards the central column tube 8 and the angle between the straight pipe section and the central column tube 8 is 5°. The bottom gating 6 is used as a channel for injecting the high-temperature alloy liquid from the accumulation tray 2 into the crystal puller 18. The lower end of the straight pipe section of the bottom gating 6 is 58 mm away from the center of the crystal puller 18. The lower end of the curved pipe section of the bottom gating 6 is connected to the side of the crystal puller 18 and the connection is perpendicular to each other.
[0035] See appendix Figure 6 The corner of the bend at the lower end of the bottom gating 6 is connected to the upper end of the bottom gating support rib 17. The lower end of the support rib 17 is connected to the base plate 15. The support rib 17 is a wax strip with a diameter of 6mm, which serves to support the bottom gating 6 and prevent fire.
[0036] See appendix Figure 6 Below the crystallization stage 14, there are two conformal anti-crack ribs 16 fixed to the upper surface of the base plate 15. The conformal anti-crack ribs 16 are wax strips with a diameter of 4mm. Both ends of the conformal anti-crack ribs 16 are connected to the base plate 15. The two conformal anti-crack ribs 16 are distributed on both sides of the crystal puller 18 and the crystallization stage 14. The parts of the two conformal anti-crack ribs 16 near the crystal puller 18 and the crystallization stage 14 are bent according to the shape of the crystal puller 18 and the crystallization stage 14 and a 9mm gap is maintained on both sides of the crystal puller 18 and the crystallization stage 14.
