After that, the casting component injects molten metal liquid of a certain pressure into the casting chamber through the casting pipe head, and at the same time, the centrifugal component drives the casting upper mold to rotate. Under the locking action of the locking component, the casting upper mold drives the casting lower mold to rotate synchronously, so that the molten metal liquid fills the casting chamber. When the molten metal liquid solidifies, the lifting component drives the casting lower mold away from the casting upper mold, and the separation and combination components separate the multiple unit modules from each other.

The locking member 8 includes a positioning block 81 welded on the unit module 63. A positioning notch 82 for the positioning block 81 to be inserted is opened on the casting lower mold 5.
[0035] The worker starts the separation and combination cylinder 92 through the control system.

Under the limiting action of the slider 94 and the slide groove 95, multiple guide ring half bars 91 drive the corresponding unit modules 63 to approach each other until they form a casting upper mold 6 with the cover plate 61.
[0036] Then the control system starts the lifting cylinder 41. Under the guidance of the guide rod 42, the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 41 drives the casting lower mold 5 to approach the casting upper mold 6 through the mounting plate 3 until the casting lower mold 5 and the casting upper mold 6 form a casting chamber 64.

[0037] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A casting assembly 10 is arranged on the frame 2. The casting assembly 10 is used to inject molten metal liquid with a certain pressure into the casting pipe head 62. The casting assembly 10 includes a pressure pipe 101 bolted to the frame 2 and rotatably connected to the casting pipe head 62.
[0038] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2A heat-resistant plate 102 is coaxially slidably arranged in the pressure tube 101, a pushing cylinder 103 electrically connected to the control system is bolted on the frame 2, the heat-resistant plate 102 is welded to the piston rod of the pushing cylinder 103, a casting funnel 104 is arranged on the frame 2, and a gate valve 105 electrically connected to the control system is arranged between the casting funnel 104 and the pressure tube 101.

A centrifugal motor 72 electrically connected to the control system is bolted to the frame 2, and a gear 73 meshing with the gear ring 71 is welded on the output shaft of the centrifugal motor 72.
[0040] When the casting lower mold 5 and the casting upper mold 6 form a casting chamber 64, the control system starts the gate valve 105 to open, and the molten metal in the casting funnel 104 will flow into the pressure tube 101. After a period of time, the control system closes the gate valve 105, and a certain amount of molten metal will remain in the pressure tube 101. Then the control system starts the pushing cylinder 103, and the piston rod of the pushing cylinder 103 drives the heat-resistant plate 102 to push the molten metal in the pressure tube 101, and injects it into the casting chamber 64 through the casting pipe head 62.
[0041] The control system controls the piston rod of the pushing cylinder 103 to extend and retract reciprocally multiple times. At the same time, the control system starts the centrifugal motor 72. The output shaft of the centrifugal motor 72 drives the gear ring 71 on the cover plate 61 to rotate through the gear 73, so that the casting lower mold 5 and the casting upper mold 6 can rotate quickly and synchronously. At this time, the guide ring half strip 91 on the unit module 63 slides with the block 93 on the piston rod of the separation and combination cylinder 92, so that the molten metal liquid in the casting chamber 64 is in a centrifugal state, thereby reducing the pores inside the casting.

[0044] When the control system stops the centrifugal motor 72, the control system starts the water pump 16, and the water pump 16 pumps the coolant in the cooling pool 14 to the cooling groove 11 on the mounting plate 3 through the hose 15. The coolant in the cooling groove 11 cools the casting lower mold 5 through the cooling groove hole 12, thereby cooling the bottom of the cast metal. At the same time, the coolant flows from the cooling groove hole 12 into the quick cooling groove hole 13 on the unit module 63, thereby cooling the top of the cast metal, thereby accelerating the cooling speed and uniformity of the cast metal.
[0045] Afterwards, the control system starts the lifting cylinder 41, which drives the casting lower mold 5 to separate from the casting upper mold 6 through the mounting plate 3, and then the control system starts the separation and combination cylinder 92, which drives the multiple unit modules 63 to move away from each other, and the control system starts the pushing cylinder 103, which squeezes the air in the pressure tube 101 through the heat-resistant plate 102, and the metal casting will fall off onto the casting lower mold 5, and the casting lower mold 5 will descend synchronously until the top column 19 abuts against the base 1, and the top column 19 fixes the metal casting through the top plate 17.
[0046] The implementation principle of Example 1 is as follows: a worker starts the separation and combination cylinder 92 through the control system, and the piston rod of the separation and combination cylinder 92 pushes the guide ring half bar 91 through the block 93. Under the limiting action of the slider 94 and the slide groove 95, multiple guide ring half bars 91 drive the corresponding unit modules 63 to approach each other until they form a casting upper mold 6 with the cover plate 61.
[0047] Then the control system starts the lifting cylinder 41. Under the guidance of the guide rod 42, the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 41 drives the casting lower mold 5 to approach the casting upper mold 6 through the mounting plate 3 until the casting lower mold 5 and the casting upper mold 6 form a casting chamber 64. At this time, the positioning block 81 on the unit module 63 will be inserted into the positioning slot 82 on the casting lower mold 5.
[0048] When the casting lower mold 5 and the casting upper mold 6 form a casting chamber 64, the control system starts the gate valve 105 to open, and the molten metal in the casting funnel 104 will flow into the pressure tube 101. After a period of time, the control system closes the gate valve 105, and a certain amount of molten metal will remain in the pressure tube 101. Then the control system starts the pushing cylinder 103, and the piston rod of the pushing cylinder 103 drives the heat-resistant plate 102 to push the molten metal in the pressure tube 101, and injects it into the casting chamber 64 through the casting pipe head 62.
[0049] The control system controls the piston rod of the pushing cylinder 103 to extend and retract reciprocally multiple times. At the same time, the control system starts the centrifugal motor 72. The output shaft of the centrifugal motor 72 drives the gear ring 71 on the cover plate 61 to rotate through the gear 73, so that the casting lower mold 5 and the casting upper mold 6 can rotate quickly and synchronously. At this time, the guide ring half strip 91 on the unit module 63 slides with the block 93 on the piston rod of the separation and combination cylinder 92, so that the molten metal liquid in the casting chamber 64 is in a centrifugal state, thereby reducing the pores inside the casting.
[0050] When the control system stops the centrifugal motor 72, the control system starts the water pump 16, and the water pump 16 pumps the coolant in the cooling pool 14 to the cooling groove 11 on the mounting plate 3 through the hose 15. The coolant in the cooling groove 11 cools the casting lower mold 5 through the cooling groove hole 12, thereby cooling the bottom of the cast metal. At the same time, the coolant flows from the cooling groove hole 12 into the quick cooling groove hole 13 on the unit module 63, thereby cooling the top of the cast metal, thereby accelerating the cooling speed and uniformity of the cast metal.
[0051] Afterwards, the control system starts the lifting cylinder 41, which drives the casting lower mold 5 to separate from the casting upper mold 6 through the mounting plate 3, and then the control system starts the separation and combination cylinder 92, which drives the multiple unit modules 63 to move away from each other, and the control system starts the pushing cylinder 103, which squeezes the air in the pressure tube 101 through the heat-resistant plate 102, and the metal casting will fall off onto the casting lower mold 5, and the casting lower mold 5 will descend synchronously until the top column 19 abuts against the base 1, and the top column 19 fixes the metal casting through the top plate 17.
