[0001] This case is a divisional application, the parent case is filed on February 17, 2020, with application number
[0002] 202010097756.8, Chinese invention patent application with the title of “A soup feeding mechanism for a casting system”. Technical Field
[0003] The invention relates to a casting machine, in particular to a casting system soup feeding mechanism, and belongs to the technical field of mechanical processing and manufacturing. Background Art
[0004] Raised floors are widely used in places with anti-static requirements such as computer rooms, data centers, and industrial plants. Raised floors can be divided into steel-based, aluminum-based, composite-based, wood-based, and calcium sulfate-based according to different substrates. Among them, the prices of aluminum-based and calcium sulfate-based floors are higher, but aluminum-based floors will not rust. Steel-based and composite-based floors are moderate, but the cross-section of steel-based floors is prone to rust, so the cross-section needs to be painted for rust prevention, and the cross-section of composite-based floors also needs to be dust-proofed; the price of wood-based floors is lower, but the water absorption rate is too high, and the fire resistance is poor, the load-bearing capacity is low, and it is not suitable for use in places with high requirements. In summary, aluminum-based raised floors have the best performance.
[0005] At present, elevated floors made of metal materials such as steel and aluminum are usually made through processes such as mold opening, melting, die casting, molding, and trimming. The die casting process requires pouring the melted metal material into the feed port of the die casting machine. The existing technology usually adopts manual pouring, which is dangerous, labor-intensive, and has low production efficiency.
[0006] In response to the above problems, some technicians in this field have developed some mechanical equipment for pouring melted metal materials. However, the existing pouring equipment generally has problems such as unstable operation and high failure rate. In addition, the existing pouring equipment generally requires real-time monitoring by staff and cannot be effectively automated, which is not conducive to improving production efficiency. In addition, the existing pouring equipment cannot cooperate well with the die-casting machine. Due to the reasons of the pouring equipment, it will affect the subsequent molding, trimming and other steps, resulting in low overall work efficiency. Therefore, the development of a casting system soup feeding mechanism has become a problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] The specific implementation of the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention.
[0023] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a casting system of the present invention. Figure 1 . The casting system 1 of this embodiment includes a melting furnace 10, a die-casting machine 30 and a casting system soup feeding mechanism 20, wherein the melting furnace 10, the casting system soup feeding mechanism 20 and the die-casting machine 30 are arranged in sequence, and the casting system soup feeding mechanism 20 is located between the melting furnace 10 and the die-casting machine 30. In addition, the die-casting machine 30 includes an inlet 31, and the melting furnace 30 is used to hold the molten metal material. The casting system soup feeding mechanism 20 transfers the molten metal in the melting furnace 10 to the inlet 31 of the die-casting machine 30. For example, the die-casting machine 30 die-casts the received molten metal into an elevated floor, but it is not limited to the objects die-casted by the die-casting machine 30 to form an elevated floor.
[0024] In this embodiment, the casting system soup feeding mechanism 20 includes a soup feeding mechanism bracket 21, a soup feeding mechanism body 22, a driving device 23, a multi-link device 24, a main arm 25 and a soup ladle 27. The soup feeding mechanism bracket 21 extends upward in a direction perpendicular to a horizontal plane (such as the ground), and the soup feeding mechanism body 22 is connected to the top of the soup feeding mechanism bracket 21, that is, the soup feeding mechanism body 22 is arranged above the soup feeding mechanism bracket 21. The driving device 23 is connected to the soup feeding mechanism body 22. One end of the main arm 25 is rotatably connected to the multi-link device 24, and the other end of the main arm 25 is rotatably connected to the soup ladle 27. The driving device 23 drives the multi-link device 24 to move, and by moving the multi-link device 24, the main arm 25 can be driven to move between the melting furnace 10 and the die casting machine 30, so that the soup spoon 27 can transfer the molten metal in the melting furnace 10 to the die casting machine 30. In other words, the soup feeding operation is realized by the driving device 23 or by the working state controlled by the driving device 23. The moving stroke L of the soup spoon 27 is as shown in FIG. Figure 1 It can be seen that the spoon 27 first moves downward under the joint action of the main arm 25 and the multi-link device 24, and the spoon 27 extends into the melting furnace 10. After the spoon 27 is filled with molten metal, the spoon 27 moves upward, and then moves from the melting furnace 10 to the feed inlet 31 in a direction roughly parallel to the horizontal plane. The spoon 27 transports the molten metal through the feed inlet 31 to the die-casting machine 30, and the die-casting machine 30 die-casts the received molten metal into an elevated floor. It should be noted that Figure 1The spoon 27 is shown to be located at the feed inlet 31 of the die casting machine 30, and the imaginary line indicates that the spoon 27 is located at the melting furnace 10. It can be seen that the casting system 1 of this embodiment can pour the molten metal (i.e., the melted metal material) into the feed inlet 31 of the die casting machine 30 without manual operation. The casting system 1 not only operates stably and has good safety performance, but also improves production efficiency while ensuring safety.

Figure 3 for Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the casting system’s soup feeding mechanism from another perspective. Figure 4 for Figure 1 A partial schematic diagram of the soup feeding mechanism in the casting system.
[0026] Figure 5 for Figure 1 Partial schematic diagram of the casting system feeding mechanism. Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 In detail, the multi-link device 24 includes a first rotating shaft 241, a second rotating shaft 242 and a four-link assembly (including a first connecting rod 243, a second connecting rod 244, a third connecting rod 245, and a fourth connecting rod 246). In addition, the driving device 23 includes a first motor 231, a second motor 232, a first transmission member 233, a second transmission member 234, a first gear member 247, and a second gear member 248, wherein the first transmission member 233 and the second transmission member 234 are, for example, a worm or a lead screw, etc., and in this embodiment, they are a worm, and the first gear member 247 and the second gear member 248 are, for example, a worm wheel or a gear, etc., and in this embodiment, they are a worm wheel.
[0027] In this embodiment, one end of the first rotating shaft 241 is rotatably connected to the soup feeding mechanism body 22, and the first rotating shaft 241 is passed through the first gear member 247, so that the first gear member 247 links the first rotating shaft 241, and the first gear member 247 and the first transmission member 233 are meshed with each other. The first motor 231 is used to drive the first transmission member 233 to rotate, and the first transmission member 233 then drives the first gear member 247 to rotate, so that the first rotating shaft 241 rotates. One end of the first connecting rod member 243 is rotatably connected to one end of the first rotating shaft 241, and the other end of the first connecting rod member 243 is rotatably connected to the main arm 25. It can be seen that the first connecting rod member 243 can be linked by rotating the first rotating shaft 241.
[0028] On the other hand, one end of the second rotating shaft 242 is rotatably connected to the soup feeding mechanism body 22, and the second rotating shaft 242 is penetrated by a second gear member 248, so that the second gear member 248 links the second rotating shaft 242, and the second gear member 248 and the second transmission member 234 are meshed with each other, and the second motor 232 is used to drive the second transmission member 234, and the second transmission member 234 drives the second gear member 248 to rotate, so that the second rotating shaft 242 rotates. One end of the second connecting rod member 244 is rotatably connected to one end of the second rotating shaft 242, one end of the third connecting rod member 245 is rotatably connected to the first rotating shaft 241, and the other end of the third connecting rod member 245 is rotatably connected to the fourth connecting rod member 246, and the other end of the second connecting rod member 244 is rotatably connected to the fourth connecting rod member 246, and the other end of the fourth connecting rod member 246 is rotatably connected to the main arm 25. It can be known that the second connecting rod 244 can be driven by rotating the second rotating shaft 242 , and the second connecting rod 244 can then drive the fourth connecting rod 246 .
[0029] Under this configuration, the first motor 231 drives the first transmission member 233 to rotate, and the first transmission member 233 drives the first gear member 247 to rotate, so that the first rotating shaft 241 rotates; the second motor 232 drives the second transmission member 234 to rotate, and the second transmission member 234 drives the second gear member 248 to rotate, so that the second rotating shaft 242 rotates. The first connecting rod 243 and the second connecting rod 244 are respectively linked by rotating the first rotating shaft 241 and the second rotating shaft 242. As the first connecting rod 243 and the second connecting rod 244 rotate, the third connecting rod 245 and the fourth connecting rod 246 are linked to form a four-bar linkage mechanism. In other words, the four-bar linkage mechanism (i.e., the auxiliary arm) of the first connecting rod 243, the second connecting rod 244, the third connecting rod 245 and the fourth connecting rod 246 of this embodiment cooperate with the rotation of the first rotating shaft 241 and the second rotating shaft 242 to control the movement of the main arm 25, thereby driving the movement of the soup spoon 27, thereby realizing the transfer of the molten metal in the melting furnace 10 to the interior of the die-casting machine 30, and the molten metal is die-casted into an elevated floor by the die-casting machine 30.
[0030] In one embodiment, the casting system soup feeding mechanism 20 further includes a housing 26. Figure 2 As shown, the housing 26 includes a first housing 261 and a second housing 262. The first housing 261 is provided with a first transmission member 233, a first gear member 247 and a part of the first rotating shaft 241. The bottom of the other end of the first transmission member 233 is fixed to the bottom of the first housing 261 (not shown), so that the first transmission member 233 and the first gear member 247 are meshed and rotated with each other. The second housing 262 is provided with a second transmission member 234, a second gear member 248 and a part of the second rotating shaft 242.
[0031] In summary, in the soup feeding mechanism of the casting system of the present invention, through the design of the multi-link device, the main arm can be driven to have a moving stroke between the melting furnace and the die-casting machine, so that the soup spoon can transfer the molten metal in the melting furnace to the die-casting machine, such as die-casting the elevated floor by the die-casting machine, but it is not limited to the objects die-casting the elevated floor by the die-casting machine. It can be seen that the soup feeding mechanism of the casting system of the present invention can pour the molten metal (i.e., the melted metal material) into the feed port of the die-casting machine without manual operation. This system has stable operation and good safety performance, which improves production efficiency while ensuring safety.
