It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.
[0021] The utility model provides a rapid cooling casting device for casting processing, such as Figure 1-4As shown, the rapid cooling casting device for casting processing includes: a buffer box 1; a cooling box 2, the cooling box 2 is fixed on the top of the buffer box 1; a plurality of baffles 3, the plurality of baffles 3 are installed in the cooling box 2 and divide the internal space of the cooling box 2 into a cooling pool 4, a buffer pool 5 and a cooling pool 6, and the water temperatures in the cooling pool 4, the buffer pool 5 and the cooling pool 6 are from low to high; a plurality of temperature sensors 7, the plurality of temperature sensors 7 are arranged on the cooling box 2, and the detection probes of the plurality of temperature sensors 7 extend to the cooling pool 4, the buffer pool 5 and the cooling pool 6 respectively; an adjusting component, the adjusting component is arranged on the buffer box 1, and the adjusting component is used to adjust the height and position of the casting.
[0022] In this embodiment, the buffer box 1 serves as the bottom support of the entire device and plays a role in stabilizing the device. It can also store cold water. The cooling box 2 has multiple baffles 3 inside so that the water temperature in the cooling box 2 can form a gradient from low to high, which is beneficial to reduce temperature difference stress and prevent surface cracking during the gradual cooling of the casting. The temperature sensor 7 can detect the water temperature in each pool in real time, providing data support for the precise control of the cooling process.
[0023] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, the adjusting assembly includes multiple cylinders 8, a top cover 9, a threaded rod 10, a first motor 11, a slider 12 and multiple metal ropes 13, the multiple cylinders 8 are fixedly mounted on the buffer box 1, the top cover 9 is fixedly mounted on the output rods of the multiple cylinders 8, the threaded rod 10 is rotatably mounted on the top cover 9, the first motor 11 is fixedly mounted on the top cover 9, the output shaft of the first motor 11 is fixedly connected to the threaded rod 10, the slider 12 is threadedly sleeved on the threaded rod 10, the multiple metal ropes 13 are fixed to the bottom of the slider 12, and the bottoms of the multiple metal ropes 13 are fixed with hooks 14.
[0024] In this embodiment, multiple cylinders 8 are fixedly installed on the buffer box 1. They serve as the main power source and can drive the lifting and lowering movement of the top cover 9. This design makes the height adjustment of the casting more flexible and precise. When the first motor 11 is started, it can drive the threaded rod 10 to rotate. When the threaded rod 10 rotates, the slider 12 can move on the threaded rod 10. This design can convert rotational motion into linear motion, further expanding the function of the adjustment component. The hook 14 can conveniently connect and fix the casting. When the slider 12 moves on the threaded rod 10, the metal rope 13 and the hook 14 will also move accordingly, thereby realizing precise adjustment of the casting position.
[0025] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, two first water pumps 15 are fixed to the bottom of the cooling box 2, and the liquid inlet ends of the two first water pumps 15 extend into the cooling pool 4 and the buffer pool 5 respectively, and the discharge ends of the two first water pumps 15 are fixed with discharge pipes 16, and the two discharge pipes 16 extend into the buffer pool 5 and the cooling pool 6 respectively.
[0026] In this embodiment, the coolant circulation between the cooling pool 4, the buffer pool 5 and the cooling pool 6 is realized through the cooperation of the two first water pumps 15 and the two drainage pipes 16. Specifically, after the first water pump 15 extracts the coolant from the cooling pool 4, it is transported to the buffer pool 5 through the drainage pipe 16, so that the temperature of the coolant in the buffer pool 5 is reduced. Similarly, the coolant extracted from the buffer pool 5 is transported to the cooling pool 6, further realizing the recycling of the coolant. This design of coolant circulation not only improves the utilization rate of the coolant and reduces the production cost, but also helps to maintain the stability of the water temperature in the cooling pool 4, the buffer pool 5 and the cooling pool 6. The stable water temperature is conducive to the uniform cooling of the casting and avoids casting quality problems caused by temperature fluctuations.
[0027] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, a metal plate 19 is fixed in the buffer box 1, a second water pump 17 is provided on the top of the metal plate 19, a liquid replenishing pipe 18 is fixed to the discharge end of the second water pump 17, and the liquid replenishing pipe 18 extends into the cooling pool 4.
[0028] In this embodiment, the metal plate 19 not only plays a supporting and fixing role, but also serves as a partition layer, so that the space inside the buffer box 1 is more reasonably utilized. The second water pump 17 can transport the liquid above the metal plate 19 to the cooling pool 4 through the refilling pipe 18, thereby realizing the refilling operation of the cooling pool 4. Through the refilling operation, it can be ensured that the coolant in the cooling pool 4 always maintains a sufficient amount to avoid affecting the cooling effect due to insufficient coolant.

When the ice storage box 24 is placed in the buffer box 1, they will contact these limit rods 23, thereby ensuring the stability and position accuracy of the ice storage box 24 in the buffer box 1. The ice storage box 24 can not only be used to store ice cubes, but also can cool down the buffer box 1 and the air around it through the cooling material inside it. Through the observation window, the operator can clearly see the consumption of ice cubes inside the ice storage box 24, so as to replenish or replace them in time.
[0031] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, a stirring rod 20 is rotatably mounted on the metal plate 19, a second motor 21 is fixed to the bottom of the metal plate 19, bevel gears 22 are fixedly mounted on the output shafts of the stirring rod 20 and the second motor 21, and the two bevel gears 22 are meshed with each other.
[0032] In this embodiment, when the second motor 21 is started, it can transmit the rotational force to the stirring rod 20 through the transmission mechanism of the bevel gear 22, thereby driving the stirring rod 20 to rotate. Through the rotation of the stirring rod 20, the liquid above the metal plate 19 can be effectively stirred to make its temperature more uniform.
[0033] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, a plurality of balls are inlaid on the top of the slider 12, and the plurality of balls are in contact with the bottom of the top cover 9. The first water pump 15 and the second water pump 17 are both hot water pumps. A sewage pipe is provided at the bottom of the cooling pool 6, and an electric valve is provided on the sewage pipe.
[0034] In this embodiment, when the slider 12 slides on the top cover 9, the ball bearings can reduce friction resistance, making the sliding smoother and more stable, which not only improves the movement efficiency of the adjustment component, but also reduces wear and extends the service life. The design of the hot water pump enables these water pumps to better adapt to high temperature environments, ensuring stable and efficient operation during the cooling process. The drain pipe allows the sewage and impurities in the cooling pool 6 to be discharged conveniently and quickly. By controlling the switch of the electric valve, the dirt in the cooling pool 6 can be regularly cleaned and discharged to ensure the cleanliness and normal operation of the cooling system.
[0035] To sum up, compared with the related art, the present device can realize gradual cooling of the casting by setting the cooling pool 4, the buffer pool 5 and the cooling pool 6, and can ensure the integrity of the casting surface while ensuring the rapid cooling effect. By setting the first water pump 15 and the second water pump 17, the cooling water in the buffer box 1, the cooling pool 4, the buffer pool 5 and the cooling pool 6 can be recycled, and there is no need to heat the cooling water, thereby saving energy. By setting the first motor 11, the threaded rod 10 and the slider 12, the gradual transfer of the casting can be realized.
