[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of magnesium alloy preparation, in particular to an automatic production process for a magnesium alloy workshop. Background Art
[0002] Magnesium alloy is an alloy based on magnesium with other elements added. It has the characteristics and advantages of low density, high strength, large elastic modulus and good heat dissipation. The main alloying elements of magnesium alloy include aluminum, zinc, manganese, cerium, thorium and a small amount of zirconium or cadmium. It is widely used in technical fields such as aerospace, automotive industry, electronic and communication equipment and medical equipment. The automatic production workshop of magnesium alloy uses automation equipment, robots, intelligent control systems and other technical means to realize the entire production process of magnesium alloy materials from raw materials to finished products.
[0003] The defects of magnesium alloy production process in the prior art are: 1. Patent document CN105838952B discloses a magnesium alloy kettle and a manufacturing method thereof. During the manufacturing process of the magnesium alloy kettle, a pouring furnace extracts magnesium liquid from a melting furnace crucible for pouring. Since the melting time is longer than the extraction time, the overall process is time-consuming, the process flow is complicated, the production cost is increased, and the production efficiency is low.
[0004] 2. Patent document CN116200624A discloses a degassing device for the production of hypereutectic aluminum-silicon alloy. During the movement of the degassing device in the production of hypereutectic aluminum-silicon alloy, the unextracted polluted gas above the melting chamber will leak into the air, posing certain safety hazards. The leakage of polluted gas can easily lead to a bad environment and cause harm to the workers.
[0005] 3. Patent document CN108311652B discloses a process for preparing ME20M magnesium alloy slabs. During the preparation process of the magnesium alloy slabs, the metal liquid level in the preparation equipment cannot be highly stable. The contact between the magnesium alloy liquid and the air increases the occurrence of oxidation reactions, which is prone to casting defects due to unstable liquid flow and slag inclusion, making it impossible to guarantee the purity and mechanical properties of the casting.

[0012] An automatic production process for a magnesium alloy workshop, preferably, comprises the following steps: 1. smelting magnesium raw materials; 2. transferring to a die-casting workshop; 3. siphoning liquid supply and die-casting; 4. slag dumping.
[0013] Preferably, the magnesium raw material smelting steps are as follows: the stirring paddle stirs the magnesium when the melting furnace is melting the magnesium, the negative pressure of the dust hood extracts the polluted gas generated during the melting process, and the dust hood is removed when the molten state of the magnesium in the melting furnace reaches the requirement.

The present invention realizes the automatic transportation of molten metal in the magnesium alloy workshop through multiple intelligent driving vehicles and AGVs, and directly transports the crucible to the casting room or die-casting workshop, creatively realizing the direct supply of magnesium water in the die-casting workshop. The flexible transportation of magnesium liquid shortens the process flow of the magnesium alloy production workshop. The whole workshop is divided into a melting chamber, a casting chamber, a slag refining chamber and a die-casting workshop according to its function, optimizes the layout of the magnesium alloy workshop, and bids farewell to the previous inefficient working method of manually connecting various nodes, realizes safe production and green production, and creates more output value within the same time and the same plant area.

[0018] 2. The present invention changes the movement of the dust hood into the movement of the melting furnace. The traditional movement of the dust hood will cause the unextracted polluted gas above the melting chamber to leak into the air, posing a certain safety hazard. The movement of the melting furnace can achieve zero leakage of polluted gas. The movement of the melting furnace cooperates with the dust hood to achieve zero leakage of polluted gas during melting and crucible lifting, reducing the leakage of polluted gas in the melting chamber and the harm of the harsh environment to the human body. The slag dumping equipment in the slag chamber can ensure that there is no waste slag left in the crucible, reducing the slag cleaning time, and further improving the production efficiency of magnesium alloys.
[0019] 3. The present invention uses the siphon effect to absorb and release magnesium water between the AGV crucible and the machine-side furnace crucible. After the AGV transports the crucible to the machine-side furnace liquid absorption position, the lifting device drives the liquid absorption tube to descend and enter the crucible. The other end of the liquid absorption tube forms a seal with the liquid inlet of the power unit. When the power unit is started, the magnesium liquid in the crucible is sucked into the machine-side furnace crucible. After the siphon effect is formed, the power unit stops working to ensure that the liquid level in the machine-side furnace crucible is stable.

[0027] AGV3 is composed of an AGV base 3-1 and a crucible insulation device 3-2, and the crucible insulation device 3-2 is installed on the top of the AGV base 3-1; The melting base 1-1 can move left and right along the cross-sectional view of the melting chamber. The melting furnace 1 melts magnesium and other raw materials. The melting chamber intelligent crane 2 and the slag chamber intelligent crane 2 are both equipped with a crucible clamp 2-1. The melting chamber intelligent crane 2 hoists the crucible 4 from the melting furnace 1 to the AGV 3. When the melting furnace 1 is performing the melting operation, the stirring paddle 7 stirs it. Polluted gas will be generated during the melting process. The dust hood 5 will use negative pressure to extract the polluted gas. The lifting hoist 6 performs the raising and lowering operations of the stirring paddle 7. The AG, 3 enters and exits the die-casting workshop through the weighing scale 13. The weight difference before and after the die-casting liquid supply is calculated to achieve precise control of the magnesium water consumption in the die-casting workshop. Multiple melting chamber intelligent cranes 2 and AGV3 realize the automatic transfer of molten metal in the magnesium alloy workshop, and directly transport the crucible 4 to the pouring chamber or die-casting workshop to realize the direct supply of magnesium water in the die-casting workshop. The entire workshop is divided into a melting chamber, a pouring chamber, a slag smelting chamber and a die-casting workshop according to function, and the layout of the magnesium alloy workshop is optimized. The direct supply of magnesium water greatly reduces the production cost, reduces the heat loss during the cooling, preheating and remelting of magnesium water, and reduces the preheating and remelting processes to reduce the energy consumption of die-casting by more than 30%.

AGV3 can transport magnesium liquid directly to the die-casting workshop. Compared with rail vehicles, AGV3 is more flexible and more convenient to operate than mother-and-child vehicles. It lays a solid foundation for the subsequent direct supply of magnesium liquid and the overall production automation of the alloy workshop. Compared with rail vehicles, the use of AGV3 for the transportation of crucible 4 reduces production costs, increases transportation flexibility, and enables the molten metal to directly pass through the pouring room and die-casting workshop.

[0030] The slag chamber includes a slag machine 10, a slag dumping machine 11 and a slag chamber intelligent crane 8. The slag chamber intelligent crane 8 is installed on the inner side of the slag chamber, and a crucible clamp 2-1 is installed at the bottom of the slag chamber intelligent crane 8.
[0031] The machine-side furnace 15 comprises a machine-side furnace crucible 15-1, a lifting device 15-2, a liquid suction pipe 15-3, a power device 15-4 and a die-casting liquid supply pipe 15-5. The machine-side furnace crucible 15-1 is installed on the inner side of the machine-side furnace 15, the liquid suction pipe 15-3 is installed on the top of the lifting device, and one end of the liquid suction pipe 15-3 is located inside the crucible 4, and the other end of the liquid suction pipe 15-3 is located inside the machine-side furnace crucible 15-1.

After the siphon effect is formed, power device 15-4 stops working. -1, when the liquid level in the machine side furnace 15-4 reaches the required level, the power device 15-4 reverses to block the drain port, a negative pressure is formed in the liquid suction pipe 15-3 to maintain the siphon state, the machine side furnace 15 sucks the magnesium water from the crucible 4 to the machine side furnace crucible 15-1, and provides magnesium liquid to the die casting equipment 14. During the die casting process, the injection mechanism of the die casting equipment 14 is used to inject the magnesium metal liquid into the preheated mold cavity at high speed and high pressure. The metal liquid quickly fills the mold cavity under high pressure, and is cooled and solidified in the mold to form a casting of the desired shape; The negative pressure siphon state ensures that the liquid level in the crucible 15-1 of the machine-side furnace is stable. The negative pressure siphon state can effectively reduce the contact between the magnesium alloy liquid and the air, thereby reducing the occurrence of oxidation reaction. Oxidation will not only lead to a decrease in the performance of the magnesium alloy, but also form oxides and other impurities on the surface of the melt, affecting the quality of the casting. The suction pressure of the negative pressure siphon can be adjusted according to the material and structure of the casting to obtain an ideal filling speed, which helps to reduce casting defects such as pores, shrinkage, etc., and improve the density and surface quality of the casting. Compared with traditional gravity casting, negative pressure siphon can reduce the impact and turbulence of the liquid flow, and reduce casting defects caused by unstable liquid flow. Negative pressure siphon has the advantage of a large number of one-time sampling, which can reduce the number and time of sampling and improve production efficiency. The negative pressure suction casting sample is easy to process and compare, while saving the use of raw materials, reducing production costs, maintaining a stable liquid level and reducing slag inclusions caused by liquid level fluctuations.
