Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of ultra-low speed die casting dies, and in particular relates to a die casting one-outlet two-gating structure. Background Art

[0002] In the ultra-low speed die casting process, the molten metal fills the mold cavity at a lower speed, which helps to reduce gas entrapment and oxidation, thereby improving the density and surface quality of the casting. The filling speed is usually controlled between a few millimeters and tens of millimeters per second.

[0003] In ultra-low speed die casting, in order to improve production efficiency, horizontal pouring is usually selected to balance the flow rate of aluminum liquid during the filling process. Such a design will lead to an oversized mold design and a large machine tonnage for the same product, which will result in high casting costs.

[0004] Taking the commonly used one-out-two as an example, the mold pouring scheme usually uses a side-by-side design (such as Figure 1 ), the advantage of this design is that it is convenient for process adjustment, so that the high-speed starting point is at the same position, ensuring that the filling of the two products is as consistent as possible. However, the disadvantages of this pouring scheme are also obvious: the runner distance is long, which wastes aluminum liquid; the runner is too long, the temperature loss is large, and the pressure conduction effect is not good; two products are placed side by side, requiring a larger mold core, resulting in a larger mold and increased costs. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a die-casting one-outlet two-gating structure.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a die-casting one-outlet two-gating structure, comprising:

[0007] A feed cavity, for receiving casting material;

[0008] The main channel has a feed end connected to the feed cavity and the other end is closed;

[0009] The side walls of the main channel are respectively connected with a plurality of vertically distributed inner gates for connecting corresponding product cavities.

[0010] In one embodiment of the present application, a slag buffer area is provided at the closed end of the main channel;

[0012] In one embodiment of the present application, the main flow channel includes a front face, a back face, and two opposite side walls;

[0013] The front and back sides are planes;

[0014] The side wall is formed by the intersection of two inclined surfaces, and the junctions between the inclined surface and the front and back surfaces are arc transition surfaces.

[0016] The included angle between the front and back sides of the main flow channel is 6°.

[0017] In one embodiment of the present application, the ratio of the cross-sectional area of ​​the feed end of the main channel to the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the outlets of all the inner gates is 1.2:1, and the multiple of the flow-blocking cross-sectional area is 1-1.5 times.

[0018] In one embodiment of the present application, the feed chamber comprises: a cake chamber, a cold material buffer chamber and a transition chamber which are sequentially connected along the flow direction of the casting material;

[0019] The transition chamber is communicated with the feed end of the main channel.

[0020] In one embodiment of the present application, the side wall of the transition cavity is a concave arc.

[0021] In one embodiment of the present application, the ratio of the cross-sectional area at the entrance of the cake cavity to the cross-sectional area at the feed end of the main channel is 3.5:1, and the multiple of the flow-blocking cross-sectional area is 3-4 times.

[0022] In one embodiment of the present application, the top surface of the main channel is an arc surface.

[0023] In one embodiment of the present application, the main channel and the feed cavity are both arranged vertically, and the casting material flows through the feed cavity and the main channel in sequence from bottom to top.

[0024] The beneficial effect of the present invention is that the die-casting one-outlet two-gating structure of the present invention includes: a feed cavity for receiving casting materials; a main channel, whose feed end is connected to the feed cavity and the other end is closed; wherein the side walls of the main channel are respectively connected with a number of vertically distributed inner gates for connecting to the corresponding product cavities. By changing the structural design of the gating, the inner gates of the gating are designed to be arranged vertically, which reduces the size of the mold, enables the mold to match more machines, and makes the production more flexible; the inner gate is directly connected to the main channel, the flow path of the molten metal is shorter, the thermal protection is better, and the filling time of the whole mold can be reduced; the main channel is thicker, and the gate is directly overlapped on the main channel, which is conducive to the conduction of boost pressure, increases product quality, and reduces production and mold costs.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are 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.

[0039] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, the die-casting one-outlet two-gating structure includes: a feed cavity 1 for receiving casting material; a main channel 2, whose feed end 21 is connected to the feed cavity 1 and the other end is closed; wherein the side walls 203 of the main channel 2 are respectively connected with a plurality of vertically distributed inner gates 3 for connecting to the corresponding product cavities 4.

[0040] In this embodiment, the main channel 2 and the feed cavity 1 are both arranged vertically, and the casting material flows through the feed cavity 1 and the main channel 2 in sequence from bottom to top.

[0041] In an application scenario, the casting material flows through the feed cavity 1 and the main channel 2, and then enters the corresponding product cavity 4 from the inner gate 3. In this embodiment, the inner gate 3 is designed to be distributed vertically, which reduces the size of the mold, enables the mold to match more machines, and makes the production more flexible; the gate is directly connected to the side wall 203 of the main channel 2, the flow path of the molten metal is shorter, the thermal protection is better, and the filling time of the entire mold can be reduced.

[0042] Optionally, the closed end 22 of the main channel 2 is provided with a slag buffer area 221 which can be used for collecting cold materials and metal inclusions; the inner gate 3 is distributed between the slag buffer area 221 and the feed end 21 of the main channel 2.

[0043] In this embodiment, the inner gate 3 is directly overlapped on the main channel 2, and the root can be transitioned through a rounded corner (for example, a radius of 2mm) to increase the fluidity of the molten metal. At the same time, in the subsequent boosting stage, the boosting pressure can be transmitted faster. Since there is no branch runner, the time for the molten metal to reach the gate from the material cake will be reduced, and the slow time will be reduced, resulting in a reduction in the filling time of the entire mold. Feedback in production, more products will be produced in the same time, increasing production efficiency while reducing production costs; at the same time, after removing the branch runner, the loss of boosting pressure will also be reduced, and more pressure will be directly transmitted to the product through the inner gate 3, so that the product air entrainment and shrinkage holes are reduced, further increasing the product yield. The main channel 2 is designed to be relatively thick, so that the main channel has a better thermal insulation effect.

[0044] In some embodiments, the gates 3 may be distributed on two opposite sides of the main channel 2, or on two adjacent sides. Of course, they may also be distributed in other tree-like forms.

[0045] See also Figures 5 to 8 The main channel 2 includes a front side 201, a back side 202 and two opposite side walls 203; the front side 201 and the back side 202 are planes; the side wall 203 is formed by the intersection of two inclined surfaces 2031, and the junction between the inclined surface 2031 and the front side 201 and the back side 202 is an arc transition surface 204.

[0046] Optionally, the vertical draft angles on both sides of the main channel 2 are 3°, and the axial draft angle is 20°; the included angle between the front side 201 and the back side 202 of the main channel 2 is 6°.

[0047] Preferably, the ratio of the cross-sectional area of ​​the feed end 21 of the main channel 2 to the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the discharge ports of all the inner gates 3 is 1.2:1, and the multiple of the flow-blocking cross-sectional area is 1-1.5 times.

[0048] See also Figure 4 The feed chamber 1 includes: a cake chamber 11, a cold material buffer chamber 12 and a transition chamber 13 which are sequentially connected along the flow direction of the casting material; the transition chamber 13 is connected to the feed end 21 of the main channel 2.

[0049] Optionally, the side wall of the transition cavity 13 is a concave arc. The radius of the arc may be 6 mm. The design of the transition cavity 13 can improve the fluidity of the molten metal.

[0050] Preferably, the ratio of the cross-sectional area at the entrance of the cake cavity 11 to the cross-sectional area of ​​the feed end 21 of the main channel 2 is 3.5:1, and the multiple of the flow-blocking cross-sectional area is 3-4 times.

[0051] See also Figure 2 Optionally, the top surface of the main channel 2 is an arc surface.

[0052] In an application scenario, such as Figure 1 In the prior art one-out-two side-by-side pouring scheme shown, taking the product length and width dimensions of 160*70 as an example, the length and width dimensions of the mold core are about 500*200mm. However, according to the pouring scheme of the present application, the same one-out-two dimensions can be reduced to 350*250. Calculated based on the same mold core thickness of 100, 13% of the size and weight will be saved, and the mold frame can also be made smaller, which can match more machines.

[0053] In summary, the die-casting one-out-two pouring row structure of the present invention reduces the mold size through the vertical pouring row design, and a smaller machine can be selected to save costs (900T one-out-two can be changed to 400T one-out-two); the gate is directly overlapped on the main channel, which can better transmit pressure and increase product yield; the filling distance is reduced to reduce the burning loss of aluminum liquid during the process, while the heat loss of the mold casting process is minimized, and the casting cycle is the shortest;
