TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to the technical field of casting forming devices, in particular to a low-pressure casting forming device for super-high-voltage GIS aluminum alloy conductors. BACKGROUND
[0002] The aluminum alloy conductors in super-high-voltage gas insulated switch (GIS) equipment are generally formed by using a low-pressure casting process. The low-pressure casting process is widely applied to the manufacturing of thick-section and complex-structure conductor components due to its stable filling and high compactness. However, the existing low-pressure casting process still has some problems in specific application.
[0003] Firstly, the super-high-voltage GIS aluminum alloy conductor usually has a complex spatial structure and a large overall size, and there are usually local thick sections or obvious hot spots in the cavity. In the casting process, these parts are prone to form shrinkage holes, shrinkage porosity and other defects due to the slow solidification speed of the metal liquid. In the prior art, a fixed chill is usually arranged at the corresponding position of the mold for forced cooling. However, the cooling intensity and position of the chill cannot be adjusted, and it is difficult to flexibly control according to the size of different products, the difference in wall thickness and the real-time solidification condition. If the cooling is insufficient, there is still a risk of shrinkage holes in the hot spot part. If the cooling is too strong, the metal may be locally supercooled, causing cracks, stress concentration and other problems, thereby seriously affecting the compactness of the casting and the overall performance. Secondly, in the low-pressure casting process, the mold cavity inevitably entrains some gas when the aluminum liquid fills the mold, or hydrogen gas is precipitated during the solidification shrinkage. If the gas cannot be discharged in time, air bubbles or pores will be formed in the casting. These defects are usually distributed in a hidden manner, which not only affects the electrical performance of the conductor, but also reduces the mechanical strength. Most of the existing improvement schemes rely on post-casting heat treatment to alleviate the problem, or the whole mold is vibrated during the casting process to promote the escape of gas. However, the post-casting heat treatment can only partially improve the organization and cannot completely eliminate the pores. Although the whole mold vibration can enhance the fluidity of the liquid metal, it has low efficiency and causes long-term impact and fatigue load on the whole mold, thereby shortening the service life of the mold and increasing the maintenance cost. At the same time, the whole mold vibration cannot improve the local defect area, and lacks the ability of targeted and fine control. Therefore, the application discloses a low-pressure casting forming device for super-high-voltage GIS aluminum alloy conductors to improve the forming precision, compactness of the casting and service life of the mold during the casting of the GIS aluminum alloy conductor.

[0048] When the worm 12 rotates, the rotating wheel 15 is engaged with the worm 12 arranged on the moving rod 9, the helical teeth are engaged with the tooth grooves of the rotating wheel 15, so that the rotating wheel 15 is driven to rotate continuously, in order to ensure the stability and transmission accuracy of the engagement, a plurality of grooves are uniformly formed in the outer surface of the rotating wheel 15, the grooves not only play a guiding role in engagement, but also provide positioning points for subsequent deflection driving, the inner wall of the other end of the support table 13 is provided with the second connecting rod 16, the second connecting rod 16 is provided with the deflection arm 17, one end of the deflection arm 17 is provided with the contact head 18, the contact head 18 is in abutment with the surface groove of the rotating wheel 15, when the rotating wheel 15 rotates, the surface groove periodically pushes the contact head 18, so that the deflection arm 17 reciprocatingly deflects around the mounting point of the second connecting rod 16, so that the deflection arm 17 can realize regular and controllable deflection movement;
[0049] The other end of the deflection arm 17 is fixedly connected with the vibrating plate 19, so that the reciprocating movement of the deflection arm 17 is transmitted to the vibrating plate 19, so that the vibrating plate 19 periodically vibrates, a plurality of vibration heads 20 are uniformly distributed on one side of the vibrating plate 19, when the vibrating plate 19 vibrates, the vibration head 20 reciprocatingly moves linearly and continuously strikes the vibration isolation base 22 arranged on the surface of the upper mold 1 at a certain frequency, the vibration isolation base 22 serves as a transition component, converts the mechanical impact of the vibration head 20 into stable vibration force and transmits the vibration force to the upper mold 1, can buffer and disperse stress, avoids bad impact or damage to the mold body;
[0050] In addition, the return spring 21 is arranged between the vibrating plate 19 and the surface of the upper mold 1, one end of the return spring 21 is connected with the vibrating plate 19, and the other end of the return spring 21 is fixed on the surface of the upper mold 1, after the vibration head 20 completes one impact, the return spring 21 can provide a reverse elastic force, timely pulls the vibrating plate 19 back to the initial position, ensures the rhythm and stability of vibration, avoids too large amplitude or deviation caused by inertia, so as to realize automatic reset and cyclic work of the vibration system;
[0051] Through the above-mentioned mechanism synergy, the rotary motion of the worm 12 is converted into the rotary motion of the rotating wheel 15, and then converted into the reciprocating deflection of the vibrating plate 19 through the contact head 18 and the deflection arm 17, and finally the vibrating head 20 periodically strikes the vibration isolation base 22, realizes the low-frequency mechanical vibration of the mold, which can effectively promote the escape of gas in the molten aluminum during the casting process, avoid the formation of bubbles or shrinkage holes in the local area due to gas retention, and at the same time, the vibration action and the directional cooling of the cold iron form a linkage, which can improve the microstructure of the casting near the cold iron, so that the molten aluminum in this area is more dense and the grain distribution is more uniform. Therefore, not only the overall forming quality and dimensional accuracy of the super-high-voltage GIS aluminum alloy conductor are improved, but also the probability of internal defects is significantly reduced, thereby improving the mechanical properties and long-term operation reliability of the casting.
[0052] Further, in the above-mentioned scheme, the vibrating plate 19 can be replaced by a vibration source 23 according to the use requirement, and the vibration source 23 can be remotely controlled.
[0053] On the basis of the above-mentioned scheme, the vibrating plate 19 can be replaced by an independent vibration source 23 according to the use requirement; the vibration source 23 can be an electromagnetic vibrator, an eccentric motor vibrator or an ultrasonic transducer, etc., the parameters of which can be remotely adjusted by a PLC, and the vibration source 23 is directly installed on the outer surface of the support table 13 or the upper mold 1 through a fixing seat, and forms a vibration coupling with the original vibrating head 20 or the vibration isolation base 22; the control end of the vibration source 23 is connected with an external control system, and remote start-stop and parameter adjustment can be realized; the operator can flexibly set the working state of the vibration source 23, including the vibration frequency, the vibration amplitude and the action time, through the remote control module according to different stages of the casting process; for example, low amplitude and frequency vibration can be selected in the initial stage of the molten aluminum filling, to assist the gas to float and escape; strong amplitude vibration can be applied for a short time in the solidification shrinkage stage of the casting, to promote the feeding and grain refinement; the remote control mode not only improves the safety and convenience of the operation, but also avoids the direct contact of the personnel with the high-temperature mold environment.
[0054] When the vibration source 23 is started, the excitation mechanism inside the vibration source 23 directly generates a periodic excitation force, which is transmitted to the vibration isolation base 22 of the upper mold 1 through the mounting seat, and then makes the mold produce uniform and stable low-frequency or high-frequency vibration; the vibration action can form a synergistic effect with the directional cooling of the cold iron core 5: in the cold iron adjacent area, the vibration promotes the flow of the molten aluminum and the escape of the gas, and the cold iron accelerates the solidification, which can significantly improve the local microstructure and reduce common defects such as shrinkage holes and pores.
[0055] Meanwhile, since the vibration source 23 adopts an independently controllable structure, the installation position can be flexibly selected or the module can be replaced according to the shape and wall thickness of different castings, so as to realize targeted vibration control; compared with the traditional mode of indirectly transmitting vibration by driving the rotating wheel 15 through the worm 12, the scheme not only improves the vibration intensity and controllability, but also has higher working reliability and service life, and is suitable for production lines with higher automation.
