Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of die casting moulds, in particular to a release agent spraying structure for a fixed mould and a middle plate. Background Art
[0002] Die-casting molds are often used in the manufacture of automotive parts. A spraying mechanism is usually set in the die-casting mold to spray a mold release agent on the mold cavity to help the casting to be demolded smoothly. Due to the special structure of the casting, the die-casting mold needs to adopt a three-plate mold structure. When the mold is opened, the middle plate and the movable mold first move together in the direction away from the fixed mold frame. When the middle plate moves to the set distance, the middle plate is restricted by the limit mechanism, and then the movable mold continues to move and separates from the middle plate. After the middle plate and the fixed mold frame are separated, the material cake flow channel between the middle plate and the fixed mold frame is broken and automatically falls off due to gravity. Then, the mold release agent is sprayed on the flow channel plate on the fixed mold and the middle plate. In fact, the distance between the middle plate and the fixed mold frame after the mold is opened is only 200mm, and the space is very narrow. It is difficult for a conventional mold release agent spraying mechanism to move between the middle plate and the fixed mold frame to spray the mold release agent on the flow channel plate on the fixed mold and the middle plate. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a mold release agent spraying structure that can target the fixed mold and the middle plate.
[0003] It can be seen that the existing technology still needs to be improved and enhanced. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0023] The utility model provides a release agent spraying structure for a fixed mold and a middle plate. In order to make the purpose, technical solution and effect of the utility model clearer and more specific, the utility model is further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the protection scope of the utility model.
[0024] In the die-casting mold, the role of the release agent is mainly in the following aspects: Promote demolding: The release agent can form a lubricating film on the surface of the mold, reduce the friction and adhesion between the metal and the mold, and make the sprue and the casting easier to detach from the mold. Protect the mold surface: The lubricating film formed by the release agent can prevent the molten metal from wearing, corroding or oxidizing the mold surface, thereby extending the service life of the mold. Improve the quality of castings: The proper use of release agents can reduce the possibility of defects in castings and improve the finish and surface quality of castings. Improve production efficiency: The use of release agents can reduce the demand for demolding force, shorten demolding time, and improve production efficiency. Since the spacing between the middle plate 2 and the fixed die frame 1 is set to be extremely small, it is difficult to move between the middle plate 2 and the fixed die frame 1 to spray the release agent on the runner plate on the fixed die frame 1 and the middle plate 2. Therefore, the utility model provides a release agent spraying structure for the fixed die frame 1 and the middle plate 2.
[0025] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 The release agent spraying structure includes a fixed mold frame 1 and a middle plate 2 that can be moved away from the fixed mold frame 1 or connected to the fixed mold frame 1, the fixed mold frame 1 is provided with a first flow channel plate 3 facing the middle plate 2, the middle plate 2 is provided with a second flow channel plate 4, and the first flow channel plate 3 and the second flow channel plate 4 are connected to form an aluminum liquid flow channel 33; the first flow channel plate 3 is provided with a plurality of first spray holes 31 facing the second flow channel plate 4, and a first infusion channel 32 is provided inside the first flow channel plate 3 to connect all the first spray holes 31, and the middle plate 2 is provided with a diverter block 5 located on the left and right sides of the second flow channel plate 4, and the diverter block 5 is provided with a plurality of spray nozzles 51 facing the first flow channel plate 3.
[0026] In fact, in order to facilitate the provision of release agent to the diverter block 5 and avoid the interference of the pipeline with the opening and closing of the mold, the fixed mold frame 1 is provided with a first liquid inlet hole 12 connected to the first liquid infusion channel 32 of the first flow channel plate 3; similarly, the side wall of the middle plate 2 is provided with a second liquid inlet hole 22 connected to the inlet of the diverter block 5. The release agent is pumped by a spray pump, the output end of the spray pump is connected to the main pipe, and the branch pipes on the main pipe are respectively connected to the joints on the first liquid inlet hole 12 and the second liquid inlet hole 22, so that the spray nozzle 51 and the first spray hole 31 can spray the release agent.
[0027] During casting, the aluminum liquid enters the casting port 34 on the first runner plate 3 and then enters the aluminum liquid runner 33, and then flows into the mold cavity composed of the fixed mold core arranged on the back of the middle plate 2 and the movable mold core on the movable mold. After the casting is cooled and formed, the middle plate 2 and the fixed mold frame 1 are opened. Under the restriction of the limiting mechanism 7, the mold opening spacing between the middle plate 2 and the fixed mold frame 1 is 200mm. The water outlet between the middle plate 2 and the fixed mold frame 1 is pulled off and automatically falls off due to gravity. A part of the release agent enters the first infusion channel 32 in the first runner plate 3, and the release agent is sprayed from the first spray hole 31 to the surface of the second runner plate 4 on the middle plate 2. At the same time, another part of the release agent enters the diversion block 5, and the release agent is sprayed from the spray nozzle 51 to the surface of the first runner plate 3 on the fixed mold frame 1, thereby ensuring that the wall surface of the aluminum liquid runner 33 surrounded by the first runner plate 3 and the second runner plate 4 is lubricated by the release agent, so that the water outlet is demolded smoothly.
[0028] Compared with the prior art, the release agent spraying structure provided by the utility model is built into the fixed die frame 1 and the middle plate 2, which solves the problem in the prior art that the external release agent spraying mechanism cannot enter between the fixed die frame 1 and the middle plate 2. The release agent is sprayed on the surface of the first flow channel plate 3 on the fixed die frame 1 through the spray nozzle 1 on the middle plate 2, and the release agent is sprayed on the surface of the second flow channel plate through the first spray hole 31 on the first flow channel plate 3, thereby forming a cross-spraying method. Even in an extremely narrow space, the first flow channel plate 3 and the second flow channel plate 4 can be fully sprayed with the release agent to cover the wall surface of the aluminum liquid flow channel, ensuring smooth demolding of the cake flow channel.
[0029] In order to prevent the release agent sprayed from the first spray holes 31 from being too concentrated and to enhance the atomization adhesion effect, the output end of each first spray hole 31 is expanded outward to have a truncated cone hole with a diameter gradually increasing outward.
[0030] See Figure 3As shown, the middle plate 2 is provided with two casting pipe heads 21 for guiding the aluminum liquid to be transported to the back of the middle plate 2, and the fixed mold frame 1 is provided with inserts 11 with the same number as the casting pipe heads 21 and matched one by one, and the inserts 11 are provided with feed ports connected to the aluminum liquid flow channel 33, so that the aluminum liquid flows into the casting pipe head 21 through the feed port; the casting port 34 is arranged in the middle of the first flow channel plate 3, and the aluminum liquid flow channel 33 on the first flow channel plate 3 is branched and connected to the feed port of the insert 11.
[0031] Since the part of the aluminum liquid flow channel 33 connected to the casting port 34 is V-shaped, a part of the first spray holes 31 is arranged at intervals along the V-shape, and the mold release agent is evenly sprayed on the V-shaped aluminum liquid flow channel 33. The part of the aluminum liquid flow channel 33 connected to the feed port of the insert 11 is in the shape of a vertical line, so the other part of the first spray holes 31 is also arranged at intervals in two vertical rows. The arrangement of the first spray holes 31 conforms to the setting path of the aluminum liquid flow channel 33, ensuring that the first spray holes 31 reliably spray the aluminum liquid flow channel 33 area on the second flow channel plate 4.
[0032] In this embodiment, 12 spray nozzles 51 are provided on each diverter block 5, and each spray nozzle 51 is tilted toward the first flow channel plate 3, so as to complete the spraying of the release agent in a large range and efficiently.
[0033] In order to ensure that the water inlet at the inlet of the casting pipe head 21 is effectively disconnected, a scraper mechanism 6 for scraping off the water inlet attached to the second flow channel plate 4 is provided on the middle plate 2 to prevent the water inlet from affecting subsequent mold closing and casting work.
[0034] Furthermore, the scraper mechanism 6 includes an oil cylinder 61 disposed downward on the top of the middle plate 2 and a scraper 62 connected to the output end of the oil cylinder 61. The oil cylinder 61 drives the scraper 62 to move downward, which not only reliably cuts off the water inlet at the casting pipe head 21, but also cleans the aluminum chips attached to the second runner plate 4.
[0035] In this embodiment, two scraper mechanisms 6 are provided and are respectively located directly above the two casting tube heads 21. Although the cake runner is broken and falls under the action of its own weight, the breaking point is uncertain, which may cause the water outlet at the casting tube head 21 to be bent, thereby interfering with the removal of the casting from the cavity. Therefore, the water outlet at the casting tube head 21 is scraped off by the scraper 62, so that the water outlet disconnection position is accurate and the cross-section is smooth, ensuring that the casting is smoothly removed from the cavity.
[0036] For further information, see Figure 6 and Figure 7The two sides of the scraper 62 protrude outward to form guide edges 623, and the middle plate 2 is provided with a track 63 that cooperates with the guide edges 623. The guide edges 623 and the track 63 jointly guide the scraper 62 to move vertically. The guiding effect of the guide edges 623 and the track 63 can not only ensure that the piston rod of the oil cylinder 61 moves in the correct direction, but also prevent the piston rod of the oil cylinder 61 from being subjected to shear force, thereby preventing the piston rod from being deformed due to the shear force.
[0037] In fact, see Figure 3 As shown, since the first spray holes 31 are all arranged above the aluminum liquid flow channel 33, some positions of the aluminum liquid flow channel 33 will be far away from the first spray holes 31, so there will be a spray blind area for the first spray holes 31 to the second flow channel plate 4. In order to solve the problem of spray blind area, in this embodiment, the scraper mechanism 6 not only has the function of scraping the water outlet, but also has the function of spraying the spray agent. The scraper 62 includes a scraper main board 621 with a shovel head formed at the bottom and a spray plate 622 integrally formed on the scraper main board 621. A plurality of second spray holes 624 are opened on the bottom surface of the spray plate 622. A second infusion channel 625 is provided inside the spray plate 622 to connect all the second spray holes 624. The second infusion channel 625 of the spray plate 622 is connected to the branch pipe.
[0038] When the scraper 62 moves vertically back and forth, the second spray hole 624 sprays out the release agent. On the one hand, the release agent is sprayed toward the wet shovel head, and the shovel head evenly applies the release agent to the surface of the second runner plate 4 to fill the gap in the release agent spraying and reduce the friction of the scraper 62. On the other hand, the sprayed release agent will adhere to the surface of the second runner plate 4, and the shovel head will push the release agent to disperse it, so as to better lubricate the surface of the second runner plate 4, reduce the friction between the handle runner and the mold, and improve the demolding efficiency.
[0039] In addition, by adding the second spray hole 624, the first spray hole 31 and the second spray hole 624 can be sprayed in coordination, which can increase the spraying speed of the release agent and improve production efficiency on the one hand, and increase the spraying coverage of the release agent on the other hand, ensuring that the second flow channel plate 4 has no spraying dead angle and the gate is smoothly demolded. The increase in the number of spray holes can increase the redundancy of the release agent spraying structure, and even if some of the holes have problems or are blocked, the other holes can still work normally, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the entire structure.
[0040] It should be noted that when processing the first infusion channel 32, multiple punching positions will be formed on the side of the first flow channel plate 3, and only one of the punching positions will be left to deliver the release agent to the first infusion channel 32, and the remaining punching positions will be blocked. Figure 7As shown, in the second infusion channel 625, two punching positions are formed on the side of the spray plate 622, leaving only the punching position on the top of the spray plate 622 for delivering the release agent to the first infusion channel 32, and the remaining punching positions are blocked.
