Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of aluminum alloy casting, and particularly relates to a cooling device for post-processing of an investment aluminum alloy casting. BACKGROUND

[0002] Investment casting, also known as lost wax casting, includes processes such as wax pressing, wax repairing, tree assembling, slurry dipping, wax melting, metal liquid pouring and post-processing. Lost wax casting is to make a wax mold of a part to be cast, then coat the wax mold with slurry, which is a mud mold. After the mud mold is dried, it is placed in hot water to melt the internal wax mold. The mud mold with the melted wax mold is taken out and baked into a ceramic mold. After baking, the pouring gate is left when the mud mold is made, and metal melt is poured from the pouring gate. After cooling, the part is completed. As a precision forming process, investment casting is widely used in high-end manufacturing fields such as aerospace and automobile parts. Its core process flow includes shell preparation, molten metal pouring and post-processing cooling, etc. The cooling process after casting is crucial to the performance of the casting.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. The described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments.

[0033] Embodiment 1

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1-8 The present application is a kind of cooling device for post-processing of investment casting aluminum alloy castings, comprising a cooling barrel 1, a placing rack 2 is arranged in the inner cavity of the cooling barrel 1; a forced air cooling mechanism is arranged in the inner cavity of the cooling barrel 1, the forced air cooling mechanism comprises a double-shaft motor 3 fixedly connected to the surface of the cooling barrel 1, a first bevel gear 4 fixedly connected to the surface of one of the output shafts of the double-shaft motor 3, a bevel gear ring 5 meshing with the surface of the first bevel gear 4, a rotating shaft 6 rotatably connected to the inner side of the cooling barrel 1 through a fixed rod and a bearing seat, a second bevel gear 7 fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft 6, a third bevel gear 8 meshing with the surface of the second bevel gear 7, a fixed shaft 9 fixedly connected to the axis of the third bevel gear 8, a guide assembly 10 arranged on the surface of the rotating shaft 6, a hopper 11 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cooling barrel 1 through a connecting rod, a first toothed ring 16 fixedly connected to the inner side of the bevel gear ring 5, a first gear 17 meshing with the inner side of the first toothed ring 16, the first gear 17 being fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft 6 at the axis thereof, a first fan blade 18 fixedly connected to the outer side of the cooling barrel 1 at one end of the fixed shaft 9, a second fan blade 19 fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the hopper 11 at the other end of the fixed shaft 9, a condenser 20 fixedly connected to the surface of the cooling barrel 1 through a mounting plate, a condensing pipe 21 communicating with the surface of the condenser 20, the condensing pipe 21 being arranged in a vortex line on the inner side of the hopper 11, a sliding block 22 fixedly connected to the surface of the bevel gear ring 5, and an annular sliding groove 23 matching the sliding block 22 being formed in the inner side of the cooling barrel 1.

[0035] Further supplemented; the cooling barrel 1 adopts a double-layer heat insulation structure, the inner layer is a high-temperature-resistant ceramic layer, and the outer layer is coated with a polyurethane foaming layer to avoid heat transfer. Moreover, since the double-shaft motor 3 is arranged outside the cooling barrel 1, the hot gas of the castings cannot damage the double-shaft motor 3, ensuring stable operation of the double-shaft motor 3. The placing rack 2 is composed of a stainless steel grid, which facilitates the placement of the castings. The funnel 11 is arranged in a circumferential array, and the inside of the bevel gear ring 5 is fixed with a first tooth ring, which is engaged with the first gear 17 on the rotating shaft 6, converting the rotary motion of the bevel gear ring 5 into the rotation of the rotating shaft 6, realizing efficient power transmission and ensuring synchronous operation of the air cooling mechanism.

The second fan blade 19 connected to the other end of the fixed shaft 9 presses the airflow into the funnel 11. The shape of the funnel 11 is designed in accordance with the Bernoulli principle, which accelerates the airflow and cools it, improving the airflow intensity and cooling efficiency. The condenser 20 (which belongs to the prior art) mainly cools the cooling liquid and drives it to flow in the condensing pipe 21. By designing the condensing pipe 21 to be arranged in a vortex line inside the funnel 11, the pre-cooled air entering the funnel 11 eliminates hot air backflow and enhances cooling efficiency. The sliding block 22 cooperates with the annular sliding groove 23 to limit the radial displacement of the bevel gear ring 5, ensuring stable rotation. The air cooling mechanism forms a forced airflow, which, together with the swinging air curtain of the guide assembly 10, covers the entire surface of the castings, avoiding cooling dead angles.

The moving plate 106 drives the transmission shaft 103 to rotate through the meshing of the toothed plate 105 and the second gear 104. The transmission shaft 103 drives the guide pipe 1010 to swing, forming a swinging air curtain covering the casting. The extension rod 107 and the spring 108 ensure that the driving wheel 109 always contacts the driving disc 101.
