Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metal casting, and in particular to a method for preparing a high-precision wax mold with a tubular cavity and a mold. Background Art

[0002] Titanium alloy precision castings are generally prepared by investment casting, which is also called lost wax casting. It usually refers to the use of fusible materials to make casting patterns, coating the surface of the patterns with several layers of refractory materials to make a shell, melting the patterns and discharging them into the shell, and obtaining the shell after high-temperature roasting. The casting is obtained by pouring molten metal into the shell, which generally includes the steps of wax pressing, shell preparation, dewaxing, pouring molten metal, and post-processing. For titanium alloy precision castings, due to the need for unified structure and function, the internal structure is complex and often includes a blind cavity structure. Ceramic cores are required to form complex inner cavities. After the casting is poured, the cores are removed to form the inner cavity structure of the casting. Therefore, in the wax pressing process of castings, it is necessary to place a core in the wax pressing mold and then inject wax to form a wax mold with a core. For castings with complex inner cavities, it is usually necessary to prepare block wax molds in different areas and then splice them into an integral wax mold.

[0003] Since the whole wax mold is made up of multiple parts, when the block wax mold and the multi-angle tubular core are matched, due to the problem of manufacturing dimensional accuracy of the block wax mold and the core, assembly dislocation is easy to occur during splicing. For example, some wax molds in the block wax mold can be assembled with the core, but after assembly, the remaining block wax molds cannot be completely matched with the core due to the dimensional accuracy of the wax mold and the dimensional accuracy of the core, resulting in the block wax mold being unable to be accurately assembled with the core. At the same time, for wax molds with cores inside, during the wax pressing process, they are easily impacted by the wax liquid, causing the core to shift and break, resulting in the inability to form the casting or directly affecting the dimensional accuracy of the complex structure of the inner cavity of the casting, which has a great impact on the service life and reliability of the casting.

[0004] Therefore, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the invention

[0054] like Figure 1-13 As shown, a method for preparing a high-precision wax model with a lumen proposed by the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0055] Step 100: Core preparation

[0056] The core preparation includes preparing a core 1 according to the shape of the casting tube cavity, and the core 1 includes a plurality of tube bodies distributed at multiple angles.

[0057] In order to facilitate the fixation of the core 1 and the subsequent shell mold, the length of a part of the tube body is greater than the corresponding tube cavity length, so that the tube body can be exposed from the shell mold when the shell mold is prepared.

[0058] Step 200: wax model design

[0059] The casting wax mold is divided into a bottom wax mold 2, a rear wax mold 3 and a front wax mold 4, the bottom wax mold 2 is formed with a first pipeline groove 21, the rear wax mold 3 is formed with a second pipeline groove 31, and the front wax mold 4 is formed with a third pipeline groove 41;

[0060] Specifically, the tube body of the core 1 is divided into an X tube body 11, a Y tube body 12, and a Z tube body 13 according to the extension direction; the X tube body 11, the Y tube body 12, and the Z tube body 13 represent the three-dimensional directions of the coordinate axes X axis, Y axis, and Z axis where the tube body is located, and there is at least one of each X tube body, Y tube body, and Z tube body; a bottom wax mold 2 is separated at a corresponding position of the casting wax mold by taking a plane formed by the center lines of the X tube body 11 and the Y tube body 12 as a dividing plane; and a plane formed by the center lines of the X tube body 11 and a portion of the Z tube body 13 connected to the X tube body 11 as a dividing plane, and the remaining wax mold is separated into a rear wax mold 3 and a front wax mold 4 at a corresponding position of the casting wax mold.

[0061] Therefore, the mutual splicing of the front wax mold 4, the rear wax mold 3 and the bottom wax mold 2 inevitably involves the positioning of the wax mold in the three-dimensional directions of X, Y and Z, which is conducive to ensuring that the wax mold containing the multi-angle core is accurately positioned in the three-dimensional directions during the splicing process.

[0062] The planes corresponding to the dividing surfaces in the bottom wax mold 2, the rear wax mold 3 and the front wax mold 4 are the splicing surfaces, and the multi-dimensional tube cavity forms grooves on the corresponding splicing surfaces. The diameter of the groove is reset as needed, and the diameter of the groove corresponding to the tube cavity port is made the same as the tube body diameter corresponding to the core 1 so as to form a precise fit with the core 1 during subsequent assembly. The diameter of the groove at other positions is larger than the tube body diameter so that the core 1 is suspended in the tube cavity during subsequent assembly, thereby forming the first pipeline groove 21, the second pipeline groove 31 and the third pipeline groove 41.

[0063] Specifically, when the wall thickness of the wax model corresponding to the suspended portion of the tube body is h≤3mm, the spacing between the suspended portion of the tube body and the groove walls of the first pipeline groove 21, the second pipeline groove 31, and the third pipeline groove 41 is l≤0.5mm. When the wall thickness of the wax model corresponding to the suspended portion of the tube body is 3mm≤h≤10mm, the spacing between the suspended portion of the tube body and the groove walls of the first pipeline groove 21, the second pipeline groove 31, and the third pipeline groove 41 is l≤1mm; when the wall thickness of the wax model corresponding to the suspended portion of the tube body is h>10mm, the spacing between the suspended portion of the tube body and the groove walls of the first pipeline groove 21, the second pipeline groove 31, and the third pipeline groove 41 is l≤2mm.

[0064] By making at least part of the tube body of the core 1 have the same inner diameter as the multi-angle tube cavity at the corresponding position for precise matching, at least part of the tube body and part of the area are suspended in the multi-angle tube cavity, thereby reducing the accuracy requirements for the casting wax mold of the multi-angle tube cavity, reducing the difficulty of assembling the casting wax mold and the core 1, thereby avoiding the problem that the core 1 cannot be assembled with the pipe groove in a certain dimension due to the multi-angle tube cavity.

[0065] In order to facilitate the positioning of the bottom wax mold 2, the rear wax mold 3 and the front wax mold 4, a first positioning protrusion 22 and a second positioning protrusion 23 are provided on the splicing surface of the bottom wax mold 2, a positioning hole adapted to the first positioning protrusion 22 is provided on the rear wax mold 3, and a positioning hole adapted to the second positioning protrusion 23 is provided on the front wax mold 4.

[0066] It should be noted that when designing the partition surface, the tube body connected to the most tube bodies in the core 1 can be the X tube body 11. Then, the Y tube body 12 and the Z tube body 13 are set according to the X tube body 11.

[0067] It should be noted that the X tube body 11 is not necessarily a single tube body, but may also be a plurality of continuous tube bodies. In this embodiment, the X tube body 11 includes an X1 tube body and an X2 tube body connected to each other, and the X1 tube body and the X2 tube body are arranged at an obtuse angle. The Y tube body 12 includes a Y1 tube body connected to the X1 tube body and a Y2 tube body connected to the X2 tube body, and the Z tube body 13 includes a Z1 tube body 14 connected to the X1 tube body and the Y1 tube body, and a Z2 tube body 15 connected to the X2 tube body and the Y2 tube body.

[0068] It should be noted that the X tube body 11, the Y tube body 12, and the Z tube body 13 in the present invention are not necessarily perpendicular to each other, that is, the X tube body 11, the Y tube body 12, and the Z tube body 13 can be perpendicular to each other, or can be arranged at an angle of 0-90 degrees. For example, the Z tube body 13 also includes a Z4 tube body 17 connected to the connection position of the X1 tube body and the X2 tube body, and correspondingly, the bottom wax mold 2 and the rear wax mold 3 are also provided with corresponding limit grooves.

[0069] It should be noted that the Y tube body 12 and the Z tube body 13 in the present invention are not necessarily connected to the X tube body 11. For example, the Z tube body 13 also includes a Z3 tube body 16 connected to the Y tube body 12, and the rear wax mold 3 is also provided with a sleeve cavity 32 for sleeve-connecting the Z3 tube body 16; a partial area of ​​the Z3 tube body 16 has the same inner diameter as the sleeve cavity 32 at the corresponding position for precise matching, and the Z3 tube body 16 and a partial area thereof are suspended in the sleeve cavity 32.

[0070] It should be noted that the length of the tube body in the partial area of ​​the tube body used for precise matching with the multi-angle lumen is ≥8mm.

[0071] It should be noted that the tube body includes a connecting end for connecting to each other and a free end relative to the connecting end. In the present method, a partial area of ​​the tube body for precise matching with the multi-angle lumen is arranged adjacent to the free end; in other embodiments, a partial area of ​​the tube body for precise matching with the multi-angle lumen may also be arranged adjacent to the connecting end.

[0072] It should be noted that, since the X tube body 11, Y tube body 12, and Z tube body 13 of the core are in different planes, when the bottom wax mold 2, the front wax mold 4, the back wax mold 3 and the core 1 are spliced, there will inevitably be assembly interference. For example, after the X tube body 11 and the Y12 tube body are assembled with the bottom wax mold 2, due to the shrinkage and deformation of the wax mold, the front wax mold 4 and the back wax mold 3 cannot be assembled with the X tube body 11 and the Y tube body 12 at the same time as the Z tube body 13 in multiple directions. At this time, the spacing between the suspended part of the tube body and the cavity wall of the multi-angle tube cavity can be used as a space for adjusting interference.

[0073] Step 300: Preparation of wax molds

[0074] The wax mold is prepared according to the designed bottom wax mold 2, rear wax mold 3 and front wax mold 4, wherein the bottom wax mold 2, rear wax mold 3 and front wax mold 4 can be prepared by 3D printing; the outline of the basic wax mold prepared by 3D printing meets the design requirements, and the interior is a hollow structure to reduce the overall weight of the 3D printed wax mold;

[0075] The bottom wax mold 2, the rear wax mold 3 and the front wax mold 4 are cleaned and partially repaired on the surface.

[0076] Step 400: Assembling wax models

[0077] The core 1 is spliced ​​with the bottom wax mold 2, the rear wax mold 3, and the front wax mold 4 by using a splicing tool 5, and the core 1 is placed in a multi-angle tube cavity formed by the first pipeline groove 21, the second pipeline groove 31, and the third pipeline groove 41 to obtain an integral wax mold with a multi-angle tube cavity; and at least part of the area of ​​the tube body of the core 1 is the same as the inner diameter of the multi-angle tube cavity at the corresponding position for precise matching, and the remaining area of ​​the core 1 is suspended in the multi-angle tube cavity.

[0078] Specifically, the splicing tool 5 includes a bottom plate 51 having a fixing ring 511 , a sliding plate 52 slidably connected to the bottom plate 51 , and a top pressure plate 53 arranged corresponding to the fixing ring 511 .

[0079] Using the splicing tool 5 to splice the core 1 with the bottom wax mold 2, the rear wax mold 3 and the front wax mold 4 includes the following steps in sequence:

[0080] Fixing the rear wax model 3: The rear wax model 3 is mounted on the fixing ring 511 of the bottom plate 51; wherein the shape of the fixing ring 511 matches the shape of the center hole of the rear wax model 3, so that the rear wax model 3 can be placed on the bottom plate 51 with the joint surface facing upward. At this time, the X and Y directions of the rear wax model 3 are fixed due to the fit with the fixing ring 511, and the Z direction is further limited by the support column 512, so as to ensure that the rear wax model 3 is accurately positioned in the three directions of X, Y and Z.

[0081] Fixing the core 1: The Z3 tube body 16 of the core 1 is sleeved into the through-tube cavity 32 of the rear wax mold 3, and then the X tube body 11, the Y tube body 12 and the Z tube body 13 are placed in the second pipeline groove 31 of the rear wax mold 3, and the Z4 tube body 17 is located in the limiting groove of the rear wax mold 3. Through the through-tube cavity 32, the front wax mold 4 and the rear wax mold 3 are fixed as a whole, and the front wax mold 4 and the rear wax mold 3 are restricted from moving in the Z direction, and the front wax mold 4 and the rear wax mold 3 are positioned in the Z direction. Combined with the placement of the X tube body 11, the Y tube body 12 and the Z tube body 13, the core 1 is positioned and connected with the rear wax mold 3 in the three directions of X, Y and Z.

[0082] Fixing the front wax model 4: The front wax model 4 is mounted on the rear wax model 3, and part of the third pipe groove 41 and part of the second pipe groove 31 enclose a tube cavity that sleeves part of the Z tube body 13; therefore, the front wax model 4 and the rear wax model 3 are positioned in the X and Y directions, and the front wax model 4 cannot move in the X and Y directions, ensuring accurate assembly in the X and Y directions. At the same time, the Z direction of the spliced ​​rear wax model 3 and the front wax model 4 is limited by the support column 512, so that the spliced ​​rear wax model 3 and the front wax model 4 are accurately positioned in the three directions of XYZ.

[0083] The bottom wax mold 2 is fixed: the bottom wax mold 2 is placed on the sliding plate 52, and the sliding plate 52 is pushed to splice the bottom wax mold 2 with the rear wax mold 3 and the front wax mold 4, and the first pipeline groove 21 and part of the third pipeline groove 41 and part of the second pipeline groove 31 are enclosed to form a tube cavity for sleeve-connecting the X tube body 11 and the Z tube body 13, and the Z4 tube body 17 is located in the limiting groove of the bottom wax mold 2.
