Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of aluminum alloy die casting, and particularly relates to a continuous automatic die casting device for aluminum alloy castings and its die casting process. Background Art

[0002] The die casting of aluminum alloy castings is a common casting process used to produce aluminum alloy parts with complex shapes. Die casting refers to injecting liquid aluminum alloy into a metal mold under high pressure, then solidifying and cooling in the mold, and finally obtaining the required aluminum alloy casting.

[0003] Chinese Patent with the authorization announcement number CN115301913B discloses a continuous automatic die casting device for aluminum alloy castings and its die casting process. It drives the lead screw to rotate forward by controlling the motor, causing the threaded pipe to drive the lifting plate to descend. Then, the injection device pours the aluminum alloy liquid into the die casting mold. Next, it continues to drive the lead screw to rotate forward, and the lead screw drives the threaded pipe to continue descending. The threaded pipe drives the lower push plug plate to descend through the lower pressing ring, lower pressing rod, movable ring plate, spline shaft, movable plate, and lower push rod. The lower push plug plate allows the coolant in the liquid storage tank to enter the cooling cavity of the rotating ring plate through the connecting pipe and the annular water pipe, realizing the cooling and heat dissipation at the bottom of the die casting mold. After the die casting mold is cooled, it drives the lead screw to rotate reversely to reset the injection device and return the coolant. At the same time, through the setting of the one-way limiting component, the die casting mold is switched. The above device has the following drawbacks: after the injection device fills the space inside the die casting mold with aluminum alloy liquid, the continued descent of the threaded pipe will also drive the injection device to continue descending, and the height of the die casting mold is inconvenient, resulting in problems such as the injection device colliding with the die casting mold. Moreover, when cooling and dissipating heat from the die casting mold, the injection device is still in a non-working state, which will affect the production efficiency of aluminum alloy castings and lengthen the production cycle of aluminum alloy castings.

As the die-casting mold body 7 continues to be driven to rotate by 90°, the movable column 801 drives the partition plate 802 to move downward, so as to press the coolant in the refrigeration box 602 below the die-casting mold body 7 from which the aluminum alloy casting has been taken out into the inside of the coolant storage tank 4 through the liquid infusion channel 601 and the delivery pipe 603, effectively ensuring the refrigeration efficiency and effect of the hot-melt liquid aluminum alloy liquid in the die-casting mold body 7.

[0041] Embodiment Three:

[0042] On the basis of Embodiment Two, as Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6-8As shown in the figure, the driving mechanism 9 includes a bearing plate 901 horizontally bolted to the rotating shaft 502; a plurality of positioning shafts 902 are vertically rotatably connected to the upper surface of the bearing plate 901; cylindrical cams 903 are coaxially fixed to the upper ends of the plurality of positioning shafts 902; connecting columns 904 are horizontally slidably inserted into the working grooves of the plurality of cylindrical cams 903; limiting sleeves 905 are vertically welded to the ends of the plurality of connecting columns 904 away from the cylindrical cams 903; the plurality of limiting sleeves 905 are respectively bolted to the lower ends of the plurality of movable columns 801; an incomplete gear 906 is horizontally arranged below the bearing plate 901; the teeth of the incomplete gear 906 are on the side of the rotating shaft 502 close to the screw 203; the incomplete gear 906 is coaxially sleeved on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 502, and the incomplete gear 906 has a clearance fit with the rotating shaft 502; the lower surface of the incomplete gear 906 is bolted to the top wall of the coolant storage tank 4 through a plurality of brackets 907; a plurality of gears 908 are horizontally arranged on the circumferential side of the incomplete gear 906; the plurality of gears 908 are respectively key-connected to the lower ends of the plurality of positioning shafts 902; a plurality of tension springs 909 are vertically arranged above the plurality of limiting sleeves 905; the plurality of tension springs 909 are respectively sleeved on the outer peripheries of the plurality of movable columns 801, and the upper and lower ends of each tension spring 909 are respectively fixed to the corresponding limiting sleeve 905 and the refrigeration box 602.During use, after the casting mold body 7 is filled, the pouring tank 3 stops pouring. At the same time, the lifting block 202 drives the pouring tank 3 to move upward to the reset position. Then, the second motor 501 drives the rotating shaft 502 to start rotating through the transmission shaft 503, the third belt pulley 504, and the fourth belt pulley 505. The rotating shaft 502 drives the just-filled casting mold body 7 to rotate horizontally by 90° through the support plate 506. The gear 908 corresponding to the casting mold body 7 meshes with the incomplete gear 906 and rolls on the incomplete gear 906. Then, the gear 908 drives the cylindrical cam 903 to rotate through the positioning shaft 902. The cylindrical cam 903 drives the partition plate 802 to move upward through the connecting column 904, the limit sleeve 905, and the movable column 801, realizing the suction of the coolant in the coolant storage tank 4 into the internal cooling box 602 below the just-filled casting mold body 7 through the liquid infusion channel 601 and the delivery pipe 603, and starting the cooling treatment of the just-filled casting mold body 7.

Then, the gear 908 drives the partition plate 802 to move downward through the positioning shaft 902, the cylindrical cam 903, the connecting column 904, the limit sleeve 905, and the movable column 801, realizing the pressing of the coolant in the cooling box 602 below the casting mold body 7 from which the aluminum alloy casting has been taken out into the internal coolant storage tank 4 through the liquid infusion channel 601 and the delivery pipe 603, effectively improving the continuous die-casting efficiency of the aluminum alloy casting.

During use, when the gear 908 and the incomplete gear 906 are in a non-engaged state, the ball bearing 11 on the lower end of the movable column 801 corresponding to the gear 908 rolls on the limiting guide rail 1001, so as to prevent the partition plate 802 connected to the movable column 801 from moving up and down. When the gear 908 and the incomplete gear 906 are engaged, the ball bearing 11 on the lower end of the movable column 801 corresponding to the gear 908 is separated from the limiting guide rail 1001, thus ensuring the control effect of the cylindrical cam 903 on the movable column 801.

[0044] A die-casting process for a continuous automatic die-casting device of an aluminum alloy casting as described above includes the following steps:

[0045] Step 1: After any die-casting mold body 7 moves to directly below the pouring tank 3, the first motor 206 drives the screw 203 to rotate through the second pulley 205 and the first pulley 204, causing the screw 203 to drive the pouring tank 3 to move downward through the lifting block 202, so that the pouring port of the pouring tank 3 is inserted into the injection port of the die-casting mold body 7, and the pouring tank 3 starts to inject the molten aluminum alloy liquid in a hot-melt liquid state into the die-casting mold body 7.

[0046] Step 2: After the pouring of the die-casting mold body 7 is completed, the pouring tank 3 stops pouring, and at the same time the lifting block 202 drives the pouring tank 3 to move upward to reset. Then, the second motor 501 drives the rotating shaft 502 to start rotating through the transmission shaft 503, the third pulley 504 and the fourth pulley 505, causing the rotating shaft 502 to drive the just-poured die-casting mold body 7 to rotate horizontally by 90° through the support plate 506. The gear 908 corresponding to the die-casting mold body 7 meshes with the incomplete gear 906 and rolls on the incomplete gear 906. Then, the gear 908 drives the cylindrical cam 903 to rotate through the positioning shaft 902, causing the cylindrical cam 903 to drive the partition plate 802 to move upward through the connecting column 904, the limiting sleeve 905 and the movable column 801, so as to suck the coolant in the coolant storage tank 4 into the interior of the refrigeration box 602 below the just-poured die-casting mold body 7 through the liquid delivery channel 601 and the delivery pipe 603, and start the refrigeration treatment of the just-poured die-casting mold body 7.

[0047] Step 3: Drive the die-casting mold body 7 to continue to rotate horizontally by 90° through the rotating shaft 502 via the support plate 506, so that the balls 11 on the lower end of the movable column 801 corresponding to the die-casting mold body 7 roll on the limit guide rail 1001, and at this time, the gear 908 corresponding to the die-casting mold body 7 and the incomplete gear 906 are in a non-engaged state;

[0048] Step 4: After repeating Step 3 once, the refrigeration treatment of the die-casting mold body 7 with the poured molten aluminum alloy is completed. At this time, the formed aluminum alloy casting is removed from the die-casting mold body 7, and then the die-casting mold body 7 is driven to continue to rotate horizontally by 90° through the rotating shaft 502 via the support plate 506, so that the balls 11 on the lower end of the movable column 801 corresponding to the die-casting mold body 7 are separated from the limit guide rail 1001, and at this time, the gear 908 corresponding to the die-casting mold body 7 and the incomplete gear 906 are engaged, so that the gear 908 drives the partition plate 802 to move downward through the positioning shaft 902, the cylindrical cam 903, the connecting column 904, the limit sleeve 905 and the movable column 801, so as to realize that the coolant in the refrigeration box 602 below the die-casting mold body 7 from which the aluminum alloy casting has been removed is pressed into the interior of the coolant storage tank 4 through the infusion channel 601 and the delivery pipe 603;

[0049] Step 5: Repeat Steps 1 to 4 to realize the continuous die-casting operation of the aluminum alloy casting.

[0050] It should be noted that the rotating shaft 502 stops for a period of time every time it drives the die-casting mold body 7 to rotate horizontally by 90°. This period of time is used to realize that the pouring tank 3 injects the molten aluminum alloy liquid in the hot-melt state into the die-casting mold body 7 and the pouring tank 3 returns to its original position after the pouring is completed, so as to ensure the production efficiency of the aluminum alloy casting.
