Description

[0002] In the process of lightweight aluminum alloy integrated molding of the triangular rotor of a rotary engine, the positioning stability, demolding efficiency and versatility of the mold directly affect the casting quality and production efficiency.

[0003] The ejection structure of the mold core lacks a relatively fixed structure, making it prone to fluctuations during operation and causing deformation of the triangular rotor during molding. Secondly, the demolding mechanism is mostly set independently, requiring steps to complete the mold core positioning release and casting ejection. The "mold closing-molding-demolding-resetting" process is not well connected, the operation steps are cumbersome, the single molding cycle is long, and the production efficiency is low. Thirdly, the mold structure needs to be disassembled when removing the part, which not only limits the removal space but also easily causes collision damage to the key features of the casting. Furthermore, the mold core replacement requires disassembling the main mold body, which is complicated and time-consuming, making it difficult to adapt to the batch production needs of triangular rotors of various specifications. The mold reuse rate and application scope are limited. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a lightweight aluminum alloy integrated molding mold for triangular rotors of rotor engines.

[0017] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this invention easier to understand, the invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0018] like Figures 1-8 As shown, the present invention provides the following technical solution: Example 1: A lightweight integrated aluminum alloy molding die for a triangular rotor of a rotary engine, comprising an upper die base 1 and a lower die base 2, with a lifting assembly between them. The upper surface of the lower die base 2 has a placement groove 3, and the lower end wall of the placement groove 3 has a receiving groove 4. A die core 5 is placed inside the placement groove 3. The upper surface of the die core 5 has a forming groove 6, and the forming groove 6 has an annular groove 7. A fixing hole 8 is formed through the lower end wall of the annular groove 7. An annular block 9 is placed inside the annular groove 7, and a fixing rod 10 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the annular block 9. The lower end of rod 10 extends through into the storage groove 4 and is fixedly connected to a fixing plate 11. A through hole 12 is provided through the mold core 5. A pressing rod 13 is installed on the lower surface of the upper mold base 1. The lower end of the pressing rod 13 extends through the through hole 12 into the storage groove 4 and abuts against the fixing plate 11. A positioning groove 14 is provided on the pressing rod 13. A fixing block 15 is fixedly installed on the fixing plate 11. A positioning hole 16 is provided through the fixing block 15. An elastic component is provided in the positioning hole 16, and a positioning rod 17 is fixedly installed through the elastic component. The positioning rod 17 is inserted into the positioning groove 14. When using it, the following steps are included: Step 1: First, place the mold core 5 in the placement groove 3, and the fixing plate 11 will descend into the receiving groove 4. The upper surface of the mold core 5 is flush with the upper surface of the lower mold base 2. Then, start the drive cylinder 19. The drive cylinder 19 drives the piston rod 20 to descend, and the piston rod 20 drives the upper mold base 1 to descend. The upper mold base 1 abuts against the upper surface of the lower mold base 2 and the mold core 5. The pressing rod 13 on the upper mold base 1 passes through the through hole 12 and descends to abut against the fixing plate 11 and presses down. The fixing plate 11 pulls the annular block 9 through the fixing rod 10, so that the annular block 9 is fixed in the annular groove 7, so that the bottom of the forming groove 6 remains stable and will not fluctuate during use, affecting the processing quality. The second step is that the lowering rod 13 abuts against the fixed plate 11, and the positioning groove 14 on the lowering rod 13 coincides with the positioning hole 16. At this time, the spring 23 pushes the fixed ring 22 under the support of the moving groove 21, and the fixed ring 22 drives the positioning rod 17 to move outward and insert into the positioning groove 14, thereby connecting the fixed plate 11 and the lowering rod 13. The third step is to connect to the external pipe through the connecting pipe 25. Then, the internal air can be extracted through the connecting pipe 25, and then lightweight aluminum alloy liquid is injected into the forming groove 6 in the mold core 5 until the lightweight aluminum alloy liquid cools and forms in the forming groove 6. Fourth step: Restart the drive cylinder 19. The drive cylinder 19 drives the piston rod 20 to rise, and the piston rod 20 drives the upper mold base 1 to rise. The upper mold base 1 drives the lower pressure rod 13 to rise, and the lower pressure rod 13 drives the fixed plate 11 to rise through the connection. The fixed plate 11 drives the fixed block 15 to rise. The fixed block 15 will abut against the mold core 5 and lift the mold core 5 outside the placement groove 3. During the process of the fixed block 15 and the fixed plate 13 rising, the fixed plate 13 will drive the annular block 9 to rise through the fixed rod 10. The annular block 9 will lift the formed triangular rotor outside the forming groove 6. Step 5: When only the triangular rotor needs to be removed, the triangular rotor can be held and the positioning rod 17 can be pulled by the pull handle 24 to disengage the positioning rod 17 from the positioning groove 14. The pressing rod 13 releases the support of the fixing plate 11 and the mold core 5. Then, the fixing plate 11 and the mold core 5 can be held and lowered into the placement groove 3 and the storage groove 4 to reset the equipment for reuse. The pressing rod 13 will disengage from the through hole 12 and funnel a certain space, so that the triangular rotor can be taken out from there. Step 6: When it is necessary to replace the mold core 5, the positioning rod 17 can be rotated by the fixing block 15. The positioning rod 17 drives the lower pressure rod 13 to rotate by engaging with the positioning groove 14, thereby disengaging the positioning rod 13 from the threaded connection with the threaded groove 26. At this time, the lower pressure rod 13, the fixing plate 11 and the mold core 5 can be removed as a whole, and the triangular rotor can be removed. Then, the fourth step can be repeated to disconnect the lower pressure rod 13 from the fixing plate 11. At this time, the mold core 5 can be replaced.

[0019] Example 2: The technical solutions in this example that differ from Example 1 include: The lifting assembly includes a mounting groove 18, which is formed on the upper surface of the lower mold base 2. A drive cylinder 19 is fixedly installed in the mounting groove 18. A piston rod 20 is movably connected to the output end of the drive cylinder 19. The upper end of the piston rod 20 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the upper mold base 1. When the drive cylinder 19 is activated, it drives the piston rod 20 to rise and fall, and the piston rod 20 drives the upper mold base 1 to rise and fall. The elastic component includes a moving groove 21, which is formed on the wall of the positioning hole 16. A fixing ring 22 is slidably connected within the movable groove 21. The fixing ring 22 is fixedly sleeved on the wall of the positioning rod 17. A spring 23 is sleeved on the positioning rod 17, with both ends of the spring 23 abutting against the fixing ring 22 and the groove wall of the movable groove 21, respectively. The positioning rod 17 is slidably connected within the positioning hole 16, with one end of the positioning rod 17 extending through to the outside of the fixing block 15. A pull handle 24 is fixedly installed at the end of the positioning rod 17 outside the fixing block 15. The spring 23 pushes the fixing ring 22, and the fixing ring 22 pushes... The movable positioning rod 17 is held within the positioning groove 14, thus ensuring the connection between the fixed block 15 and the lower pressure rod 13. The positioning rod 17 can be pulled away from the positioning groove 14 by the pull handle 24, thereby releasing the connection between the fixed block 15 and the lower pressure rod 13. A connecting pipe 25 is fixedly installed on the upper mold base 1. The lower end of the connecting pipe 25 penetrates the lower surface of the upper mold base 1, and the lower end of the connecting pipe 25 is aligned with the forming groove 6 on the mold core 5. The connecting pipe 25 is connected to an external pipe, and then... The air inside is extracted through the connecting pipe 25, and then lightweight aluminum alloy liquid is injected into the forming groove 6 in the mold core 5. A threaded groove 26 is provided at the center of the lower surface of the upper mold base 1. The upper end of the lower pressure rod 13 is threaded and the upper end of the lower pressure rod 13 is threaded to the threaded groove 26, so that the lower pressure rod 13 can be removed. The fixing rod 10 is slidably connected in the fixing hole 8. The annular groove 7 matches the annular block 9. When the annular block 9 is fixed in the annular groove 7, the bottom of the forming groove 6 remains stable.
