[0017] A method for automatically adding a ductile iron alloy into a casting process, comprising the following steps:
[0018] Step 1: The storage tank is filled with perlite. When the inner rod of the hydraulic rod is extended, the hanger is aligned with the arc track through the arc groove. The hanger is pushed by the grip rod and the top cover is driven to rotate with the hydraulic rod as the axis, so that the arc track enters the inner wall of the arc groove. The two sides of the arc track are pushed up by the edges of the arc track to push the two tenon plates up, so that the blocking arm rises away from the injection hole. At this time, the counterweight slides downward and drives the L-shaped slider to slide downward, so that the end of the L-shaped slider is limited by the bottom of the inner wall of the second slide groove and flips with the sliding pin as the axis, thereby causing the card block to be stuck in the corresponding buckle plate, so that the two support plates are horizontal and aligned with each other to fit the lower frame opening of the closed rectangular frame 2;
[0019] Step 2: When the injection hole slides along the arc track to align with the feeding hole, the blocking arm passes over the block and forms a shield. The infrared signal emitted by the sensor device determines the distance from the hanger, thereby generating an electrical signal to open the electric valve on the material pipe, prompting the perlite to be discharged into the inner wall of the arc track and pass through the feeding hole and the injection hole, and then continue to enter the top of the two support plates along the injection channel to realize automatic material removal, and then the rare earth magnesium ferrosilicon alloy is put into the spheroidizing furnace body for bottom laying;
[0020] Step 3: According to the descending height of the perlite in the storage tank, the loading amount in the rectangular frame 2 is judged, and the hanger is reset by rotating the grip rod to align the enclosure with the furnace mouth of the spheroidizing furnace body. At the same time, the arc groove is separated from the arc track. The sensor device senses that the hanger is away and closes the electric valve. The crossbeam is driven down by the contraction of the inner rod of the hydraulic rod, so that the enclosure is plugged into the spheroidizing furnace body. The tension of the tension spring drives the blocking arm to reset and plug in the injection hole to achieve the sealing of the spheroidizing furnace body;
[0021] Step 4: The top cover descends, driving the rectangular frame 1 and the rectangular frame 2 to descend synchronously. The retaining spring first enters through the through hole and squeezes the retaining block to slide into the movable hole to release the connection with the buckle plate. When the ladder surface 2 enters the through hole, the ladder surface 1 abuts and pushes the mounting block upward to cause the L-shaped slider to rise. At this time, the end of the L-shaped slider loses the limit at the bottom of the inner wall of the second slideway, and at the same time, it is flipped downward by the weight of the perlite and the support plate, and the perlite is sprinkled to cover the rare earth magnesium silicon iron alloy, which is connected to the molten iron delivery system pipeline through the iron flushing pipe. The control valve is adjusted to flush molten iron into the spheroidizing furnace body to cast ductile iron.
[0022] (III) Beneficial effects
[0023] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a device and method for automatically adding alloy to ductile iron by punching method, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0024] 1. The automatic adding device and method for casting alloy by ductile iron punching method adopts an adjusting part to control the furnace mouth of the spheroidizing furnace body, and can realize the automatic switching of loading and unloading processes and the iron casting process. The extension of the inner rod of the hydraulic rod can make the top cover rise and open the furnace mouth for loading operation, and the contraction of the inner rod makes the top cover fall and close the furnace mouth for the iron casting process, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing the complexity and labor intensity of manual operation. The blocking arm of the injection part can automatically seal and open the injection hole by cooperating with the hanger and the arc groove, thereby realizing the sealing and heat preservation of the heat in the furnace and the automatic control of the injection operation, thereby ensuring the stability and continuity of the production process.
[0025] 2. The automatic adding device and method for alloy casting by the ductile iron punching method adopts a sensor device of the feeding part to accurately judge the distance between the hanger and itself, thereby controlling the electric valve on the material pipe according to the signal to achieve accurate addition of covering material. By observing the descending height of the covering material in the storage tank, the feeding amount in the rectangular frame 2 can also be judged, and the addition amount of the covering material can be further accurately controlled to ensure that it can effectively cover the alloy material in the furnace and provide good conditions for subsequent casting processes. In terms of alloy addition, the entire automatic device and method provide a basis for accurately controlling alloy addition, avoiding the problem of difficulty in accurately controlling the addition time and amount during manual addition, thereby improving the stability of casting quality.
[0026] 3. The automatic adding device and method for casting alloy by the ductile iron punching method adopts a covering part with a unique structural design, including L-shaped sliders, support plates, baffles and other components, which can stably transport the covering material and cover the alloy in the furnace. The sliding and flipping coordination of the two L-shaped sliders and the lifting effect of the support plates enable the covering material to be accurately placed in the required position to prevent it from leaking from the chute or uneven distribution during the adding process, thereby ensuring the covering effect. There are two covering parts and they are installed symmetrically. The two support plates can fit on the inner wall of the second rectangular frame, further ensuring the stability of the filling space of the covering material in the furnace and improving the integrity and uniformity of the covering.
[0027] 4. The automatic adding device and method for alloy casting by the ductile iron injection method adopts covering materials in the furnace to protect the alloy materials. For example, covering materials such as perlite can form a heat insulating layer on the surface of molten iron, reduce heat loss and oxidation of the molten iron, and protect the alloy materials from excessive oxidation during the casting process, thereby improving the utilization rate of the alloy and the quality of castings. The sealing arms of the injection part and the enclosure, top cover and other components of the sealing part form a double seal at the furnace mouth of the spheroidizing furnace body, reducing oxidation and heat loss of molten iron, creating a good sealing environment for the casting process, and is conducive to improving the speed and uniformity of the spheroidizing reaction, thereby improving the quality and efficiency of the spheroidizing treatment.
[0028] 5. The automatic adding device and method for casting alloy by the ductile iron punching method adopts a reasonable structural design of the top cover, enclosure, rectangular frame 1 and rectangular frame 2 of the sealing part and related slide grooves, buckle plates, etc., which can not only realize the effective sealing of the furnace mouth, but also cooperate closely with the covering part to ensure the smooth addition and sealing operations of the covering material. The structure of rectangular frame 1 and rectangular frame 2 provides installation space and sliding tracks for the L-shaped slider. The buckle plate is used to fix the position of the L-shaped slider to ensure the stability of the covering structure. The connecting arm, ladder surface 1, ladder surface 2 and retaining spring of the unlocking part cooperate with the mounting block of the covering part, and can unlock the covering part at the right time, so that the covering material can be smoothly sprinkled to cover the alloy material. This structural design ensures the continuity and stability of the entire device during operation.
[0029] 6. The automatic adding device and method for casting alloy by the ductile iron punching method adopts the hydraulic rod and hanger structure of the adjustment part so that the operator can remotely control the lifting and rotation of the top cover by holding the rod, avoiding the risk of scalding caused by close contact with the spheroidizing furnace body and improving the safety of operation. The design of the mounting frame, sensor device, storage tank, material pipe and arc track of the feeding part simplifies the feeding and transportation process of the covering material and improves the convenience of operation. The sensor device can automatically control the electric valve for feeding, and the arc track provides a guide for the covering material, so that the covering material can smoothly enter the furnace, reducing the need for manual intervention.

[0050] Step 1: The storage tank 83 is filled with perlite. When the inner rod of the hydraulic rod 61 is extended, the hanger 63 is aligned with the arc track 85 through the arc groove 64. The hanger 63 is pushed by the grip rod 65 and the top cover 21 is driven to rotate with the hydraulic rod 61 as the axis, so that the arc track 85 enters the inner wall of the arc groove 64. The two sides of the arc track 85 push the two tenon plates 72 up, so that the blocking arm 71 rises away from the injection hole. At this time, the counterweight block 39 slides downward and drives the L-shaped slider 31 to slide downward, so that the end of the L-shaped slider 31 is limited by the bottom of the inner wall of the second slide groove 27 and flips with the sliding pin 32 as the axis, thereby prompting the block 34 to be stuck in the corresponding buckle plate 29, so that the two support plates 35 are horizontal and aligned with each other to fit the lower frame opening of the closed rectangular frame 26;
[0051] Step 2: After the injection hole slides along the arc track 85 and is aligned with the feeding hole 86, the blocking arm 71 passes over the stopper 87 and forms a shield, and the infrared signal emitted by the sensor device 82 determines the distance from the hanger 63, thereby generating an electrical signal to open the electric valve on the material pipe 84, so that the perlite is discharged into the inner wall of the arc track 85 and passes through the feeding hole 86 and the injection hole, and then continues to enter the top of the two support plates 35 along the injection channel 28, realizing automatic material taking, and then the rare earth magnesium silicon iron alloy is put into the spheroidizing furnace body 1 for bottom laying;
[0052] Step 3: According to the descending height of the perlite in the storage tank 83, the loading amount in the rectangular frame 26 is judged, and the hanger 63 is rotated and reset by the grip 65 to align the enclosure 22 with the furnace mouth of the spheroidizing furnace body 1. At the same time, the arc groove 64 is separated from the arc track 85. The sensor device 82 senses that the hanger 63 is far away and then closes the electric valve. The crossbeam 62 is driven down by the contraction of the inner rod of the hydraulic rod 61, so that the enclosure 22 is plugged into the spheroidizing furnace body 1. The tension of the tension spring 74 drives the blocking arm 71 to reset and plug in the injection hole to achieve the sealing of the spheroidizing furnace body 1;
[0053] Step 4: The top cover 21 descends, driving the rectangular frame 1 23 and the rectangular frame 2 26 to descend synchronously. The retaining spring 44 first enters through the through hole 37 and squeezes the retaining block 34 to slide into the movable hole to release the connection with the buckle plate 29. When the step surface 2 43 enters the through hole 37, the step surface 1 42 abuts and pushes the mounting block 36 upward to cause the L-shaped slider 31 to rise. At this time, the end of the L-shaped slider 31 loses the limit at the bottom of the inner wall of the chute 2 27, and at the same time, it is flipped downward by the weight of the perlite and the weight of the support plate 35, and the perlite is sprinkled to cover the rare earth magnesium silicon iron alloy, which is connected to the molten iron delivery system pipeline through the iron flushing pipe 9. The control valve is adjusted to flush molten iron into the spheroidizing furnace body 1 to cast ductile iron.
[0054] Working principle: the inner rod of the hydraulic rod 61 extends to drive the hanger 63, and drives the top cover 21 to rise, so that the enclosure 22 is moved away from the furnace mouth of the spheroidizing furnace body 1, and the mounting block 36 is moved away from the ladder surface 42 and slides down by the deadweight of the counterweight block 39, so that the L-shaped slider 31 slides down. Both ends of the L-shaped slider 31 are arc structures, which can effectively reduce the contact friction with the bottom of the inner wall of the chute 1 24 and the chute 2 27. There is a height difference between the bottom of the inner wall of the chute 2 27 and the chute 1 24. When the end of the L-shaped slider 31 contacts the bottom of the inner wall of the chute 2 27 first, a resistance force is generated, and the slider rotates with the sliding pin 32 as the axis. The side groove 25 limits the lifting and lowering trajectory of the L-shaped slider 31 to avoid the problem of falling off. The L-shaped slider 31 is flipped and blocked 34 resets the alignment buckle plate 29 and fixes it through the buckle hole, so that the support plate 35 returns to a horizontal state. When the arc groove 64 rises and aligns with the arc track 85, the grip 65 is used to remotely control the hanger 63 to rotate with the hydraulic rod 61 as the axis, so that the arc groove 64 slides into the arc track 85 and performs a curved motion with the same arc. The ends of the edges on both sides of the arc track 85 adopt an arc surface structure, which can reduce friction after contacting the tenon plate 72. The oblique edge of the tenon plate 72 is squeezed to cause the blocking arm 71 to rise and open the injection hole. After passing the block 87, the blocking arm 71 will form a blocking structure to prevent the covering material from splashing from the arc track 85 or crossing the feeding hole 86 to cause waste during subsequent feeding.
[0055] The sensing device 82 adopts the GP2D12 infrared distance sensor, which is based on the principle of triangulation to determine the distance of an object. It emits a beam of infrared light. When the infrared light hits the surface of the object, it will be reflected. The reflected light will be received by the receiving element of the sensor. When the hanger 63 in this case approaches the sensing device 82, it will generate an electrical signal through the reflection of the infrared light, and then open the electric valve to make the covering material roll out from the storage tank 83 along the material pipe 84. The covering material enters the feeding hole 86 along the inner wall of the arc track 85 and falls through the injection hole. The injection channel 28 guides the covering material to fall and prevents the covering material from splashing and rebounding. The covering material falls onto the two supporting plates 35 for receiving, and the four baffles 33 on both sides block a certain height in the slide slot 27 to prevent the covering material from rolling out of the slot and being wasted. After the loading is completed, the hanger 63 is pushed back to the top of the furnace mouth of the spheroidizing furnace body 1 by the grip 65, so as to facilitate the transportation of the covering material. According to the actual production needs, the appropriate rare earth magnesium silicon iron alloy is put into the spheroidizing furnace body 1. When the arc slot 64 is separated from the arc track 85, the tension spring 74 drives the blocking arm 71 to reset and block the injection hole. The sensor device 82 determines that the hanger 63 is away and closes the electric valve through an electrical signal, so as to facilitate the work of automatic loading and unloading.
[0056] The inner rod of the hydraulic rod 61 contracts, causing the top cover 21 to descend, and the enclosure 22 to re-enter the spheroidizing furnace body 1. The retaining spring 44 abuts against the buckle plate 29 through elastic deformation, and squeezes the buckle hole to cause the clamping block 34 to slide into the movable hole to release the clamping connection. The step surface 42 abuts against the mounting block 36 and pushes the L-shaped slider 31 to rise. The support plate 35 is flipped downward at this time, and the transported covering material falls on the rare earth magnesium silicon iron alloy. At this time, the covering material is completely placed in a sealed environment, which effectively avoids the waste and loss caused by the covering material splashing to the outside of the spheroidizing furnace body 1, and can also make the covering material as close to the rare earth magnesium silicon iron alloy as possible for covering. Finally, molten iron is punched into the iron punching pipe 9 for ductile iron processing, which can form a certain insulation layer on the surface of the molten iron to reduce the heat loss and oxidation of the molten iron. Injecting molten iron from the bottom can more quickly contact and mix the molten iron with the rare earth magnesium silicon iron alloy. After the molten iron is injected from the bottom, it will tumble upward, which is beneficial to increase the speed and uniformity of the spheroidization reaction, thereby possibly improving the quality and efficiency of the spheroidization treatment. At the same time, under the conditions of double sealing of the enclosure 22 and the blocking arm 71, the oxidation and temperature loss of the molten iron are reduced. Moreover, the molten iron enters from the bottom, has the least contact with the air, has the least possibility of oxidation, and has relatively small heat loss.
