Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of rolling mills, in particular to a centrifugal casting machine and a rolling mill casting process based on the centrifugal casting machine. Background Art

[0002] A centrifugal casting machine is a machine used in a casting method that pours liquid metal into a rotating mold, where it is formed and solidified into a casting under the action of centrifugal force. Centrifugal casting machines are mainly divided into three types: horizontal, vertical, and inclined, depending on the direction of the mold's rotating axis:

[0003] Horizontal centrifugal casting machine: mainly used for casting various tubular castings, such as gray cast iron and ductile iron water pipes and gas pipes, with diameters ranging from 75 mm to 3000 mm. In addition, it can also cast large-diameter copper rollers for papermaking machines, various carbon steel and alloy steel pipes, and double-layer steel rollers with different inner and outer layers.

[0004] Vertical centrifugal casting machine: mainly used to produce various ring castings and smaller non-circular castings.

[0005] Among them, roll casting is an important process method in the roll manufacturing process. The roll is a cylindrical tool used to roll metal materials. It is subjected to huge pressure and friction during the rolling process. Roll casting is the process of pouring molten metal into a mold and obtaining a roll product of the desired shape after it cools and solidifies.

[0006] In the roll manufacturing process, centrifugal casting machines are often used. By pouring molten metal into a high-speed rotating mold, the molten metal fills the mold and forms a casting under the action of centrifugal force. Due to the action of centrifugal force, the molten metal can fill the mold well in the radial direction and form the free surface of the roll.

[0007] However, during the casting process, incomplete molding may occur, which is mainly manifested in the reduction of the size of the casting or the uneven thickness of the casting tube wall. This is mainly caused by insufficient liquid metal pouring or uneven distribution of liquid metal during the casting process, thus affecting the subsequent forming quality of the roller.

[0008] In addition, in the existing technology, the process of molten metal flowing into the casting cylinder is often difficult to accurately control, which can easily cause the molten metal to flow too fast or too slow, affecting the molding quality of the casting; uneven molten metal flow rate may lead to uneven wall thickness of the casting, or even incomplete filling.

[0009] When the casting cylinder rotates at high speed, it is easy to shake due to the lack of an effective clamping device, affecting the stable distribution of the molten metal; shaking may cause the molten metal to be unevenly distributed on the inner wall of the casting cylinder, thereby affecting the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the casting.

[0010] In the prior art, the preheating and cleaning process of the casting cylinder usually requires manual operation, which is inefficient and prone to operational errors.

[0011] Insufficient preheating may result in a large temperature difference between the molten metal and the casting cylinder, causing casting defects; incomplete cleaning may result in residual molten metal affecting the quality of subsequent castings.

[0012] The existing patent 201610758592.2 - A shock-absorbing vertical centrifugal casting machine does not clearly disclose the technical content for solving the above technical problems.

[0061] The flow guiding mechanism includes a flow nozzle, which is arranged on a side of the liquid storage bag close to the casting cylinder 1 to ensure that the molten metal can flow smoothly into the casting cylinder 1.

[0062] The control unit is a key part of the feeding assembly, which is used to control the flow of molten metal from the storage ladle to the casting cylinder 1; its function is to ensure that the flow rate and speed of the molten metal meet the casting requirements.

[0063] The use mainly includes the following steps:

[0064] Molten metal preparation:

[0070] Cooling and forming:

[0071] The molten metal is cooled and solidified in the casting cylinder 1 to form the desired casting.

[0072] The formed casting is taken out from the casting cylinder 1 and is subsequently processed and handled.

[0073] Furthermore, in the present invention, the control unit includes a rotating plate 5, one end of the rotating plate 5 is connected to the storage liquid bag 3, and the other end is connected to a counterweight assembly; the counterweight assembly drives the storage liquid bag to move by controlling the rotating plate 5; the rotating plate 5 is the core component of the control unit, which is used to control the movement of the storage liquid bag, thereby controlling the flow of the molten metal.

[0135] Preheating process:

[0136] Before casting, the hot air blower 34 is started, and hot air is blown toward the inner wall of the casting cylinder 1 through the hot air head 35 to achieve uniform preheating.

[0137] Preheating can reduce the temperature difference between the molten metal and the casting cylinder 1, and prevent casting defects such as cracks and pores caused by excessive temperature difference.

[0138] Cleaning process:

[0139] After the casting is completed, the water pump is started to spray the water in the water tank 36 to the inner wall of the casting cylinder 1 through the cleaning nozzle 37 for cleaning.

[0140] Cleaning can remove residual molten metal and impurities, ensure the cleanliness of the casting cylinder 1, and prepare for the next casting.

[0141] A roller casting process for the centrifugal casting machine includes the following specific steps:

[0142] S1: According to the composition requirements of the roll, various metal raw materials are accurately weighed and reasonably matched. The matched materials are placed in the melting furnace for high-temperature smelting to make them completely melted and reach a uniform liquid state. The temperature and time are controlled to ensure the quality of the molten metal. Refining treatment is then carried out to improve the purity of the molten metal;

[0143] S2: evenly apply the release agent to the inner wall of the casting cylinder 1, preheat the casting cylinder 1 to reduce the temperature difference between the molten metal and the casting cylinder 1, and prevent the occurrence of casting defects. The power component is started to drive the casting cylinder 1 to rotate to a suitable speed;

[0144] The molten metal enters the casting cylinder 1 from the flow nozzle 4 through the storage liquid bag. Under the action of centrifugal force, the molten metal is evenly distributed on the inner wall of the casting cylinder 1.

[0145] S3: The molten metal gradually cools and solidifies in the casting cylinder 1 to form a roll blank. After the roll blank is cooled to a certain degree, it is taken out of the casting cylinder 1.

[0146] specific:

[0147] S1: Raw material preparation and smelting;

[0148] Precise weighing: According to the composition requirements of the rolls, various metal raw materials are accurately weighed and reasonably matched.

[0149] Accurate weighing is a critical step in ensuring casting quality. Any deviation in composition may result in substandard casting performance.

[0150] Smelting:

[0151] The prepared materials are placed in a melting furnace for high-temperature melting to completely melt them and reach a uniform liquid state.

[0152] Control the melting temperature and time to ensure the quality of the molten metal. Too high or too low a temperature, or too long or too short a time, may affect the purity and uniformity of the molten metal.

[0153] Refining process:

[0154] Refining treatment is carried out during the smelting process to improve the purity of the molten metal.

[0155] Refining treatment can remove impurities and gases in the molten metal, reduce casting defects, and improve the mechanical properties and service life of castings.

[0156] S2: The casting cylinder 1 is prepared for pouring with molten metal;

[0157] Apply release agent:

[0158] The release agent is evenly applied to the inner wall of the casting cylinder 1.

[0159] The role of the release agent is to prevent the molten metal from adhering to the casting cylinder 1, to facilitate the removal of the casting, and to reduce defects on the surface of the casting.

[0160] Preheat:

[0161] The casting cylinder 1 is preheated to reduce the temperature difference between the molten metal and the casting cylinder 1 .

[0162] Too large a temperature difference may cause thermal stress to be generated when the molten metal enters the casting cylinder 1, thereby causing casting defects such as cracks, pores, etc.

[0163] Starting power components:

[0164] The power assembly is started, driving the casting cylinder 1 to rotate to a suitable speed.

[0165] The choice of rotation speed needs to be adjusted according to the size and shape of the casting to ensure that the molten metal can be evenly distributed under the action of centrifugal force.

[0166] Molten metal pouring:

[0167] The molten metal enters the casting cylinder 1 from the flow nozzle 4 through the storage liquid bag.

[0168] Under the action of centrifugal force, the molten metal is evenly distributed on the inner wall of the casting cylinder 1.

[0169] During the pouring process, the velocity and flow rate of the molten metal need to be controlled to avoid turbulence or splashing of the molten metal when it enters the casting cylinder 1, thereby affecting the quality of the casting.

[0170] S3: cooling and casting removal;

[0171] Cooling and solidification:

[0172] The molten metal gradually cools and solidifies in the casting cylinder 1 to form a blank of the roll.

[0173] The control of cooling rate has an important influence on the microstructure and properties of the casting and needs to be optimized according to the material and size of the casting.

[0174] Casting removal:

[0175] After the roll blank has cooled to a certain degree, it is taken out from the casting cylinder 1.

[0176] The removal process requires careful operation to avoid damage to the casting while ensuring the safety of the operator.

[0177] Precise control: Ensure the quality and composition of the molten metal meet the requirements through accurate weighing and melting, improving the performance and consistency of castings.

[0178] Reducing defects: Applying a release agent and preheating the casting cylinder 1 can reduce the temperature difference between the molten metal and the casting cylinder 1 and prevent the occurrence of casting defects.

[0179] Uniform distribution: centrifugal force is used to evenly distribute the molten metal on the inner wall of the casting cylinder 1, thereby improving the quality and consistency of the casting.

[0180] Improve efficiency: By optimizing the pouring and cooling processes, production efficiency is improved and production cycle is reduced.

[0181] The specific embodiments are as follows:

[0182] As attached Figure 1 To the attached Figure 7 As shown:

[0183] The present invention provides a centrifugal casting machine and a roller casting process, comprising a casting cylinder 1, a base 2 being provided below the casting cylinder 1, a power assembly being provided between the casting cylinder 1 and the base 2, the power assembly driving the casting cylinder 1 to rotate, a liquid storage bag 3 for storing molten metal being provided on one side of the casting cylinder 1, and a flow nozzle 4 being provided at the front end of the liquid storage bag 3;

[0184] It also includes a rotating plate 5, one end of which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the liquid storage bag 3, and positioning plates 6 are provided on both sides of the center position of the rotating plate 5. The rotating plate 5 is rotatably connected between the two positioning plates 6, and a steel rope 7 is provided at the bottom of the other end of the rotating plate 5. A detachable gravity disk 8 is provided at the bottom of the steel rope 7, and a regulating component is provided on the positioning plate 6 and below the rotating plate 5.

[0185] The lifting mechanism of the lifting mechanism is to lift the lifting mechanism on the lifting plate 5 and the lifting plate 6 back to the lifting mechanism, so that the lifting mechanism can be lifted off the lifting platform 11 and the lifting platform 12 can be adjusted.

[0186] In this embodiment, the power assembly includes driving wheels 38, which are symmetrically arranged obliquely below the casting cylinder 1. A driving shaft 9 is provided between the driving wheels 38 on one side, and the driving shaft 9 is connected to the motor.

[0187] It should be noted that the power assembly can drive the casting cylinder 1 to rotate. When the casting liquid enters the casting cylinder 1, the metal liquid fills the mold and forms a roller under the action of centrifugal force.

[0188] In this embodiment, annular grooves 10 are symmetrically provided on the casting cylinder 1 , and the driving wheel 38 is movably embedded in the annular groove 10 . Limiting rings 11 are provided on both sides of the annular groove 10 .

[0189] It should be noted that by setting an annular groove 10 on the outer wall of the casting cylinder 1, the driving wheel 38 is rotated and located in the annular groove 10, which increases the friction between the driving wheel 38 and the annular groove 10. The designed limit ring 11 can prevent the driving wheel 38 from causing the casting cylinder 1 to deviate during the process of driving the casting cylinder 1 to rotate.

[0190] In this embodiment, an inclined portion 12 is provided on the inner bottom surface of the storage liquid bag 3, and the inclined portion 12 gradually tilts downward in the direction close to the flow nozzle 4. The vertical cross-sectional profile of the flow nozzle 4 is a "U" shape, and the flow opening inside the flow nozzle 4 becomes smaller as it approaches the casting cylinder 1.

[0191] It should be noted that after the inclined portion 12 and the baffle plate 15 are pulled upward, the molten metal will flow along the inclined portion 12 toward the flow nozzle 4, thereby allowing it to better enter the flow nozzle 4;

[0192] At the same time, the flow opening inside the flow nozzle 4 is made smaller as it is closer to the opening of the casting cylinder 1, so that the cross-sectional size should gradually decrease as it is closer to the inlet of the casting cylinder 1, thereby controlling the flow rate of the molten metal and avoiding excessive flow.

[0193] In this embodiment, a clamping strip 13 is provided on the opposite surface inside the storage liquid bag 3, and a clamping groove 14 is formed between the clamping strip 13 and the side wall close to the flow nozzle 4. A blocking plate 15 is movably connected in the clamping groove 14, and a pull ring 16 is provided on the top of the blocking plate 15. A cover plate 17 is provided on the top of the side of the storage liquid bag 3 away from the flow nozzle 4, and the cover plate 17 is rotatably connected to the storage liquid bag 3.

[0194] It should be noted that the material of the storage liquid bag 3 is designed to be resistant to high temperatures and not easy to melt, so that high-temperature molten metal can be stored. The baffle plate 15 is movable and can close the inlet of the flow nozzle 4. Therefore, after the molten metal is poured into the storage liquid bag 3 in the initial stage, it can be blocked by the baffle plate 15 to prevent it from flowing directly into the casting cylinder 1.

[0195] In this embodiment, a snap ring 18 is embedded in the bottom center of the rotating plate 5 , an embedding opening 19 is provided on the snap ring 18 , a support shaft 20 is provided between the two positioning plates 6 , and the snap ring 18 is rotatably connected in the snap ring 18 through the embedding opening 19 .

[0196] It should be noted that the retaining ring 18 is fixedly connected to the rotating plate 5 , and the support shaft 20 is rotatably connected in the retaining ring 18 , so that the rotating plate 5 can rotate in different directions on the support shaft 20 .

[0197] In this embodiment, the regulating assembly includes a displacement frame 21, a guide rail 22, a sliding block 23 and a positioning rod 24. The guide rail 22 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of the base 2, and the sliding block 23 is slidably installed on the guide rail 22. The displacement frame 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the two sliding blocks 23. The positioning plate 6 passes through the top plate of the displacement frame 21 and is movably connected to it. The positioning plate 6 is provided with vertically spaced positioning holes 25. After the positioning plate 6 is moved to a suitable height, the positioning rod 24 is inserted into the positioning hole 25, and the positioning rod 24 abuts against the top of the displacement frame 21.

[0198] It should be noted that, through the provided regulating assembly, the displacement frame 21 is slidably connected to the guide rail 22 through the sliding block 23, so that the displacement frame 21 can be moved, thereby driving the displacement frame 21 to move, and driving the positioning plate 6 to move, thereby adjusting the position of the liquid bag 3, and then controlling the outlet position of the flow nozzle 4. When centrifugation is required, the displacement frame 21 is pushed forward to make the liquid outlet of the flow nozzle 4 close to the inlet of the casting cylinder 1. After the molten metal has finished flowing, the displacement frame 21 can be pushed backward to facilitate its removal after the roller casting is completed.

[0199] At the same time, the positioning plate 6 is movably arranged on the displacement frame 21, so that the height of the positioning plate 6 can be adjusted, which will ultimately control the height of the liquid outlet of the flow nozzle 4. It can be adjusted according to different situations, thereby improving the flexibility of the flow nozzle 4 during the pouring process;

[0200] The positioning rods 24 are provided so that after the positioning plate 6 is adjusted to a suitable height, the positioning rods 24 can be inserted into the positioning holes 25 to fix the positioning plate 6 .

[0201] In this embodiment, vertical mounting plates 26 are symmetrically provided at the top of the base 2 and on both sides of the casting cylinder 1. Opposite guide holes 27 are provided at the top of the two mounting plates 26. A lifting plate 28 is provided in the guide hole 27. Arc plates 29 are symmetrically provided at the bottom of the lifting plate 28 and above the casting cylinder 1. Interval-distributed pressure wheels 30 are provided between the two arc plates 29. The outer wall of the pressure wheel 30 is movably fitted on the outer wall of the casting cylinder 1. A rotating shaft 31 is provided between the pressure wheel 30 and the arc plate 29.

[0202] It should be noted that the mounting plate 26 is fixed on the base 2, the lifting plate 28 is slidably installed in the guide hole 27, and an arc-shaped plate 29 is provided at the bottom of the lifting plate 28. There is a clamping wheel 30 between the two arc-shaped plates 29. By moving the lifting plate 28 downward, the clamping wheel 30 is made to stick to the outer wall of the casting cylinder 1, thereby limiting the casting cylinder 1 to a certain extent, avoiding the shaking of the casting cylinder 1 under high-speed rotation, causing instability of the internal molten metal, and affecting the forming quality of the subsequent rolling rollers.

[0203] In this embodiment, matching holes 32 are provided on both sides of the guide hole 27 and on the mounting plate 26, and fastening screws 33 are provided on both sides of the lifting plate 28. When the lifting plate 28 is moved to a suitable position, the fastening screws 33 are locked in the matching holes 32. A hot air blower 34 with an external power supply is provided on the outer wall of the mounting plate 26, and a hot air head 35 is provided on the hot air blower 34. The hot air head 35 is connected to the hot air blower 34 through a pipeline. A water tank 36 with a built-in water pump is provided on the outer wall of the mounting plate 26 on the other side, and a cleaning nozzle 37 is provided outside the water tank 36. The cleaning nozzle 37 is connected to the water tank 36 through a pipeline.

[0204] It should be noted that by arranging a water tank 36 on the mounting plate 26, a cleaning nozzle 37 is connected through a pipeline. After the rolling mill is manufactured, the inner wall of the casting cylinder 1 can be cleaned by the cleaning nozzle 37, thereby avoiding manual cleaning. The hot air blower 34 is arranged to dry the interior after cleaning, thereby avoiding the situation where there is residual moisture inside during the subsequent pouring of molten metal, which affects the forming quality of the rolling mill.

[0205] The method of using the above embodiment is that when it is necessary to manufacture a rolling roller, the casting cylinder 1 is connected to the power assembly so that it can drive the casting cylinder 1 to rotate, and the lifting plate 28 is moved to drive the lifting plate 28 to move up and down in the guide hole 27, so that the pressure wheel 30 between the two arc-shaped plates 29 fits on the outer wall of the casting cylinder 1, and is locked in the matching hole 32 by fastening the screw 33, so that the casting cylinder 1 can rotate together with the pressure wheel 30, thereby improving the stability of the casting cylinder 1, and the power assembly is started to drive the casting cylinder 1 to rotate;

[0206] The corresponding gravity plate 8 is taken out according to the quality of the roller forming that needs to be processed. In the initial state, because the storage liquid bag 3 and the flow nozzle 4 have weight, a gravity plate 8 of a certain weight is placed in the early stage to maintain the balance of the entire rotating plate 5. When the gravity plate 8 with the casting molten metal is installed on the steel rope 7, there is a gravity imbalance at this time, which will cause the rotating plate 5 to tilt to one side. At this time, the molten metal is slowly poured into the storage liquid bag 3, which will cause the rotating plate 5 to slowly tilt in the opposite direction. When the rotating plate 5 tends to be balanced, stop adding molten metal, move the displacement frame 21 so that the sliding block 23 slides on the guide rail 22, and eventually drive the outlet of the flow nozzle 4 connected to the storage liquid bag 3 into the casting cylinder 1;

[0207] At this time, the blocking plate 15 blocks the storage liquid bag 3, and the molten metal is placed in the storage liquid bag 3. The blocking plate 15 is moved upward through the retaining ring 18, thereby driving the blocking plate 15 to be pulled upward from the slot 14. At this time, the molten metal will enter the flow nozzle 4, and flow into the casting cylinder 1 in the flow nozzle 4. Because the opening of the flow nozzle 4 gradually decreases, the flow rate of the molten metal can be controlled. Finally, the molten metal enters the casting cylinder 1, and under the action of centrifugal force, it is gradually formed into a rolling roller. After the production is completed, the rolling roller is finally taken out from the casting cylinder 1 by cooling.

[0208] A roller casting process using the centrifugal casting machine comprises the following specific steps:

[0209] S1: According to the composition requirements of the roll, various metal raw materials are accurately weighed and reasonably matched. The matched materials are placed in the melting furnace for high-temperature smelting to make them completely melted and reach a uniform liquid state. The temperature and time are controlled to ensure the quality of the molten metal. Refining treatment is then carried out to improve the purity of the molten metal;

[0210] S2: evenly apply the release agent to the inner wall of the casting cylinder 1, preheat the casting cylinder 1 to reduce the temperature difference between the molten metal and the casting cylinder 1, and prevent the occurrence of casting defects. The power component is started to drive the casting cylinder 1 to rotate to a suitable speed;

[0211] When the weight of the weight plate 5 is too high, the weight plate 5 is lifted up and the balance plate 5 is lifted up, so that the balance plate 5 can be kept in a stable state.

[0212] S3: The molten metal gradually cools and solidifies in the casting cylinder 1 to form a roll blank. After the roll blank is cooled to a certain degree, it is taken out of the casting cylinder 1.

[0213] Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned methods. As long as various non-substantial improvements are made using the method concept and technical solution of the present invention, they are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.
