Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of casting technology, and in particular to a core making device for casting sand cores and a method for using the same. Background Art

[0002] Casting is a metal hot working process, in which molten metal is poured into a specific mold and cooled and solidified to form parts or blanks of the desired shape and size. Chilled iron plays a vital role in the casting process. Its main functions include reducing the size of the riser, improving the shrinkage feeding channel, controlling the solidification sequence of the casting, eliminating local thermal stress, preventing cracks, accelerating the solidification rate of the casting, refining the grain structure, and improving the mechanical properties of the casting.

[0003] With the promotion and application of 3D printing technology, the method of using 3D printed sand cores for casting production has gradually been applied in the industry. 3D printed sand cores use liquid connectors to solidify the layers of sand to create a three-dimensional solid prototype. In the design of conventional 3D printed sand core casting processes, the chill cannot be placed directly during the 3D printing sand core process due to the weight of the chill and the time required for the 3D printed material to solidify. Therefore, a chill groove for installing the chill is required on the sand core. After the sand core is printed and solidified, the chill is bonded to the chill groove.

[0004] However, since the volume of the liquid connector changes when the sand layer solidifies, there will be a design error in the size of the reserved chiller trough and the standard chiller. At the same time, the size of the chiller itself will also change during long-term use. This will eventually result in the chiller being unable to be installed on the chiller trough or the gap between the chiller trough and the chiller being too large, which will cause casting defects in the casting, which is a deficiency. Summary of the invention

During this process, the curing lamp 13 heats the casting sand to accelerate the curing of the casting adhesive, and at the same time the brush 14 sweeps the casting sand on the top of the enclosure tube 6.

[0048] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 The sliding assembly 5 includes a plurality of slide rails 51 welded on the built-in frame 2, the slide rails 51 correspond one-to-one to the cold iron 4, and a slide seat 52 slides on each slide rail 51. A plurality of translation cylinders 53 electrically connected to the control system are bolted to the built-in frame 2, and the translation cylinders 53 correspond one-to-one to the slide rails 51. The slide seat 52 is bolted to the piston rod of the translation cylinder 53.

[0056] The control system starts the first electric slide 9 and the third electric slide 11. The slider of the first electric slide 9 drives the third electric slide 11 to slide along the length direction of the first electric slide 9. The slider of the third electric slide 11 drives the glue coating cylinder 821 to slide along the length direction of the third electric slide 11. At the same time, the glue coating cylinder 821 drives the glue spray head 822 to move vertically through its piston rod, thereby realizing printing and spraying operations in three-dimensional space.

[0057] After the glue spray head 822 has finished spraying the cross section of a sand core 0, the control system drives the third electric slide 11 to move to one side of the fourth electric slide 12 through the first electric slide 9, and then the control system starts the second electric slide 10 and the fourth electric slide 12. The slider of the second electric slide 10 drives the third electric slide 11 to slide along the length direction of the second electric slide 10, and the slider of the fourth electric slide 12 drives the sand coating cylinder 811 to slide along the length direction of the fourth electric slide 12.

[0058] Then the control system starts the sand sealing cylinder 815, and the piston rod of the sand sealing cylinder 815 drives the plug plate 816 to move, and the plug plate 816 opens the sand covering groove 813, and the casting sand in the sand covering box 812 flows out from the sand covering groove 813 until a layer of casting sand is completely laid on the top of the enclosure tube 6. During this process, the curing lamp 13 heats the casting sand to accelerate the curing of the casting adhesive, and at the same time the brush 14 sweeps the casting sand on the top of the enclosure tube 6.

[0059] When the printing and curing position of the sand core 0 reaches the designed position of the cold iron 4, the control system starts the translation cylinder 53 and the lifting cylinder 54. The translation cylinder 53 pushes the lifting cylinder 54 to move through the slide 52. The piston rod of the lifting cylinder 54 drives the cold iron 4 to approach the sand core 0. At this time, there is a height difference between the cold iron 4 and the sand core 0. Then, during the spraying process, the glue spray head 822 will be driven by the glue coating cylinder 821 to move vertically.

[0060] Avoid hitting the cold iron 4 until the height difference between the cold iron 4 and the sand core 0 is filled. Finally, the glue spray head 822 will spray the casting adhesive on the cold iron 4 and the solidified sand core 0 at the same time. The sand covering box 812 lays the casting sand until the entire sand core 0 is completed. When the sand core 0 is solidified, the translation cylinder 53 drives the lifting cylinder 54 to move away from the cold iron 4. In the process of filling the height difference between the cold iron 4 and the sand core 0, the brush 14 will sweep down the casting sand laid on the cold iron 4.

[0061] During the sliding movement of the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 54 along the length direction of the avoidance groove 55, the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 54 drives the rotating shaft 562 at one end of the leakage-proof belt 561 to unwind the leakage-proof belt 561, and the leakage-proof belt 561 at the other end rewinds the leakage-proof belt 561 under the action of the torsion spring 565, thereby blocking the avoidance groove 55 during the movement of the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 54.

[0062] Example 2 Embodiment 2 of the present application discloses a method for using a core making device for casting sand cores, comprising the following steps: S1, the control system starts the first electric slide 9, the third electric slide 11 and the glue coating cylinder 821, the glue coating cylinder 821 drives the glue spray head 822 through its piston rod to spray the casting binder on the printing base plate 3 according to the cross section of the sand core 0, and then the control system drives the third electric slide 11 to move to one end of the first electric slide 9 through the first electric slide 9; S2, the control system starts the second electric slide 10 and the fourth electric slide 12, and the sand covering cylinder 811 drives the sand covering box 812 to slide along the length direction of the second electric slide 10, so as to lay the casting sand on the casting binder, and at the same time, the curing lamp 13 heats the casting sand flowing out of the sand covering box 812 to quickly solidify the casting binder; S3, the control system starts the lifting cylinder 71, and the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 71 pushes the apron tube 6 up a certain distance through the connecting plate 72; S4, repeat the above process until the sand core 0 reaches the designed position of the chill 4; S5, the control system starts the translation cylinder 53 and the lifting cylinder 54, and the cold iron 4 moves to the designed position of the sand core 0. At this time, there is a height difference between the cold iron 4 and the sand core 0, and then the glue spray head 822 cooperates with the sand covering box 812 during the spraying process to fill the height difference; S6, the glue spraying head 822 sprays the casting binder on the casting sand and the chill 4, and the sand covering box 812 lays the casting sand on the sprayed casting binder until the entire sand core 0 is completed; S7. When the sand core 0 is completely solidified, the translation cylinder 53 drives the lifting cylinder 54 to move away from the cold iron 4, the control system starts the solenoid valve 17, and the sand discharge pipe 16 discharges the casting sand in the enclosure pipe 6 into the collection box 15, and the worker can take out the sand core 0.

[0063] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
