DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms indicating orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention; in the description of the present invention, the meaning of "multiple" and "several" is at least two, for example two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0041] See also Figure 1 As shown, the present invention is a bionic elephant trunk type sand core mold demoulding device, comprising a shell fastening unit 600, a moving unit and a bionic elephant trunk type sand cleaning unit 400, wherein the shell fastening unit 600 is used to fix the sand core mold shell on the demoulding base 7; the moving unit is used to drive the bionic elephant trunk type sand cleaning unit 400 to slide toward or away from the sand core mold shell; the bionic elephant trunk type sand cleaning unit 400 is used to remove sand cores at multiple angles; wherein, one end of the bionic elephant trunk type sand cleaning unit 400 is connected to the moving unit through a guide rail fastening seat 2, and a sand cleaning device 5 is provided at the other end, and the bionic elephant trunk type sand cleaning unit 400 drives the sand cleaning device 5 to deflect at multiple angles, so as to realize that the sand cleaning device 5 rotates in the deflection direction to remove the sand core.

[0042] During the use of the demolding device of the present application, the shell fastening unit 600, the moving unit and the elephant trunk-like sand cleaning unit 400 are designed so that the sand core mold shell can be pre-positioned under the action of the shell fastening unit 600 to ensure the stability of the subsequent sand core removal. When the sand core is removed, it is convenient to drive the elephant trunk-like sand cleaning unit 400 to feed closer to the sand core mold shell through the moving unit, and under the action of the multi-angle offset action of the elephant trunk-like sand cleaning unit 400 itself, the sand cleaning device 5 can rotate in the offset direction to remove the sand core.

[0043] The present application can complete demolding more accurately and reduce damage to the sand core through the flexible multi-angle offset action of the bionic elephant trunk, thereby ensuring the integrity and precision of the sand core and improving the quality of the casting; in addition, the present application adopts the structural design of the bionic elephant trunk-type sand cleaning unit 400, which can quickly adapt to the operation and use of sand core membrane shells of different shapes and sizes, realize rapid demolding, reduce demolding time, and thus improve demolding quality.

[0044] It should be understood that the present application can be used in conjunction with a water-soluble sand core mold demolding design. The water-soluble sand core mold demolding mainly utilizes the thermal expansion and contraction characteristics of the water-soluble sand core mold. During the demolding process, the sand core membrane shell can be first heated to expand and then cooled to shrink, so that the molded shell can be easily separated from the sand core mold to obtain the desired product. When the water-soluble sand core mold demolding is used in conjunction with the present application, the multi-angle offset action of the present application is faster and more efficient in removing the sand core, thereby helping to reduce energy consumption and material loss during the demolding process.

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, the demoulding device of the present application also includes a shell flip unit 800, which is used to keep the demoulding base 7 in a horizontal working state or a tilted working state; when the shell flip unit 800 is used to keep the demoulding base 7 in a horizontal working state, it is convenient to position the sand core membrane shell and complete multi-angle offset actions in the feed direction to remove the sand core, so that the sand core removal range is wide and there is no dead angle for cleaning; after the sand core is removed, the shell flip unit 800 is used to keep the demoulding base 7 in a tilted working state, so that the removed sand core can be tilted and slid down for collection, thereby solving the problem of inconvenient cleaning of the removed sand core.

[0046] In this specific implementation mode, Figure 5As shown, the shell flip unit 800 includes a connecting rod 1 801, a connecting rod 2 804 and a connecting rod 3 805. The connecting rod 1 801 is rotatably connected to the left side of the bracket 806, and is fixedly connected to one end of a hydraulic push rod 808 at the middle position. The telescopic end of the hydraulic push rod 808 is connected to the connecting rod 2 804. The two ends of the connecting rod 1 801 and the connecting rod 2 804 are respectively connected through the connecting rod 2 807, and the inclined bottom ends of the connecting rod 1 803 are respectively fixedly connected at the two ends of the connecting rod 2 804. The inclined top end of the connecting rod 1 803 is rotatably connected to the base through the fixing pin 802. The connecting rod 3 805 is rotatably connected to the right side of the bracket 806, and the two ends of the connecting rod 3 805 are respectively rotatably connected to the base.

[0047] When the shell flip unit 800 in the present application is in use, when the hydraulic push rod 808 is extended, the connecting rod 1 801, the connecting rod 2 804 and the connecting rod 2 807 on both sides form a rectangular frame, the hydraulic push rod 808 is extended to drive the connecting rod 2 804 to deflect downward, the connecting rod 2 804 drives the connecting rod 1 803 to slowly deflect upward, and the connecting rod 1 803 thereby deflects and lifts the base along the connecting rod 3 805 to keep the demolding base 7 in an inclined working state, thereby facilitating the inclined sliding and collection of the removed sand cores; when the hydraulic push rod 808 is shortened, it drives the connecting rod 2 804 to deflect upward, so that the connecting rod 1 803 slowly deflects downward, and the connecting rod 1 803 thereby deflects and lowers the base along the connecting rod 3 805 to keep the demolding base 7 in a horizontal working state.

[0048] It should be understood that the hydraulic push rod 808 between the connecting rod 1 801 and the connecting rod 2 804 in the shell flip unit 800 can be replaced with other power components. Other power components such as air pumps or electric push rods can complete the up and down deflection action of the connecting rod 2 804. The working principles are the same and will not be repeated here.

[0049] In this specific implementation mode, Figure 2 As shown, the elephant trunk-like sand cleaning unit 400 includes a motor fixing plate 1 detachably connected to one end of a guide rail fastening seat 2, and the other end of the guide rail fastening seat 2 is detachably connected to the flared end of the conical cylinder 3. Four motors 401 are evenly distributed at equal angles on the motor fixing plate 1, and the output shaft end of each motor 401 is provided with a pulley 402, and one end of a transmission belt 403 is wound around the pulley 402. The transmission belt 403 extends along the narrow end of the conical cylinder 3 and is fixedly connected to a belt chuck 405. The belt chuck 405 is provided with a sand cleaning device 5, and a plurality of connecting blocks 404 are arranged between the belt chuck 405 and the conical cylinder 3. The connecting block 404 is provided with a slot for the transmission belt 403 to avoid, and two adjacent connecting blocks 404 are connected by a multi-angle conversion component.

[0050] When the elephant trunk-like sand cleaning unit 400 in the present application is used, four motors 401 are designed to be evenly distributed at equal angles, and the four motors 401 are individually controlled to control their rotation speeds and rotation directions. The output end of each motor 401 is correspondingly wound with a transmission belt 403, and the transmission belt 403 corresponds to four transmission directions of up, down, left and right. Under the action of the motor 401 and the pulley 402, the transmission belt 403 is wound so that the belt chuck 405 connected to its tail end can be offset at multiple angles. The multiple-angle offset action can simulate the flexible action of the elephant trunk, and can move up, down, left and right, so as to drive the sand cleaning device 5 to rotate and scrape sand, achieve more accurate and more flexible demoulding, and reduce damage to the shell; in addition, the elephant trunk-like sand cleaning unit 400 can drive the pulley 402 to realize the rotation of the connecting block 404 in all directions through the speed difference of the four motors or the free direction design of up, down, left and right rotation, so as to realize the possibility of automated operation. This special design is conducive to combination with automated equipment, making the demoulding process easier to realize automated production.

[0051] When the transmission belt 403 is wound up and the belt chuck 405 can move at multiple angles, such as Figure 3 As shown, the multi-angle transformation component includes a universal joint 407 and a cross knot 408, which are respectively connected to one end of the two universal joints 407 through the cross knot 408, and the other end of each universal joint 407 is respectively connected to the connecting block 404; the universal joint 407 and the cross knot 408 are used in conjunction with each other to facilitate the freedom connection of the belt chuck 405 and the several connecting blocks 404 spaced apart between the conical cylinder 3, and in the process of differential winding of the transmission belt 403 along the several connecting blocks 404, it is ensured that the belt chuck 405 can stably move at multiple angles up, down, left, and right, thereby simulating the flexible movement of the elephant's trunk.

[0052] In this specific implementation mode, Figure 2 As shown, the sand cleaning device 5 includes a scraping head 406, which is rotatably connected to the belt chuck 405, and a rotating motor for driving the scraping head 406 to rotate is provided between the scraping head 406 and the belt chuck 405; a plurality of protrusions for removing sand cores are evenly distributed on one end surface of the scraping head 406 away from the belt chuck 405; during the multi-angle offset action of the sand cleaning device 5 following the belt chuck 405, it is convenient to drive the scraping head 406 to rotate in the offset direction to remove the sand core through the rotating motor, which is easy to operate, and the efficiency of sand core removal is accelerated by the designed multiple protrusions.

[0053] In this specific implementation mode, Figure 4As shown, the shell fastening unit 600 includes a positioning hoop 603 that is slidably connected to the demoulding base 7. The positioning hoop 603 is a U-shaped structure, and the top end of the positioning hoop 603 is threadedly connected to the fastening bolt 601, and the tail end of the fastening bolt 601 is fixedly connected to the fastening tile 602, and the sand core mold shell is pressed and fixed in the V-groove 604 on the demoulding base 7 by the fastening tile 602; when the shell fastening unit 600 in the present application is used, it is convenient to pre-place the sand core mold shell in the V-groove 604 of the demoulding base 7, and then slide the U-shaped positioning hoop 603 along the base to above the placement position of the sand core mold shell, and use the fastening bolt 601 to drive the fastening tile 602 to rotate and move downward, so as to clamp and position the sand core mold shell; the shell fastening unit 600 used in the present application is easy to disassemble and operate, and is suitable for positioning shells of different sizes, which can improve the demoulding efficiency and reduce the demoulding time.

[0057] Step 1: The demoulding base 7 is kept in a horizontal working state by the shell flipping unit 800 , and the sand core mold shell is fixed on the demoulding base 7 by the shell fastening unit 600 .

[0058] Step 2: When cleaning the sand core, the moving unit drives the elephant trunk-like sand cleaning unit 400 to approach the sand core mold shell until the sand cleaning device 5 reaches the sand core cleaning station. The elephant trunk-like sand cleaning unit 400 drives the sand cleaning device 5 to deflect at multiple angles to enable the sand cleaning device 5 to rotate in the deflection direction to clean the sand core.

[0059] Step 3: After the sand core is removed, the elephant trunk-like sand cleaning unit 400 is driven away from the sand core mold shell by the moving unit, and the shell flipping unit 800 is used to keep the demoulding base 7 in an inclined working state, so as to facilitate the collection of the removed sand core in the inner cavity of the sand core mold shell by dumping and sliding.
