Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of precision manufacturing, in particular to an inner mold device for slip injection molding a quartz crucible. Background Art

[0002] There are some existing technologies related to the preparation mold of corundum crucible in China. For example, the patent specification with the announcement number CN217257020U discloses a preparation mold and molding structure of corundum crucible, including a fixed seat, an outer mold, a crossbeam and an inner mold. The bottom of the outer mold is connected to the fixed seat, the inner mold is arranged in the inner cavity of the outer mold, and a casting cavity is arranged between the inner mold and the outer mold. The crossbeam is arranged at the top of the outer mold and fixedly connected to the inner mold. The inner mold is connected to the outer mold through the crossbeam. A vibrator is installed in the middle of the top of the fixed seat, and the vibrator is arranged in the middle of the bottom of the outer mold. The patented technology installs the vibrator on the base of the outer mold. The vibration of the vibrator facilitates the discharge of bubbles, makes the mold surface smoother, optimizes the molding quality, and achieves the purpose of less pores and high quality.

[0003] At present, it is generally required that the corundum-quartz crucible has good chemical and thermal shock stability; the inner wall surface of the crucible is smooth and does not fall off, which effectively reduces the wall loss of precious metal solution and avoids impurity contamination; the crucible size precision is required to be high.

[0004] In order to ensure the molding accuracy, inner wall smoothness and thermal shock stability of the crucible, solid grouting molding is generally adopted. The outer mold is a gypsum mold, and the inner mold core is a metal mold (the metal mold core can ensure the inner wall of the molded crucible is smooth and does not fall off through surface polishing). The outer mold gypsum mold and the inner mold metal mold core are combined to form an internal grouting molding cavity. The top of the outer mold gypsum mold is left with a grouting opening. The slurry water injected into the cavity is absorbed by the inner cavity wall of the outer gypsum mold. The slurry in the cavity is dehydrated and gradually solidified. In this process, due to the solidification and shrinkage of the slurry, the molded blank and the inner mold metal mold core are tightly held and cannot be completely demolded. The conventional forced extraction mode demolding generally damages the molded blank, causing damage to the inside or surface of the blank, thereby affecting the surface smoothness and thermal shock resistance of the finished crucible. To this end, we propose an inner mold device for grouting quartz crucible. Utility Model Content

[0023] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] The inner mold device for slip casting quartz crucible of this embodiment is shown in FIG. Figure 1 , including a left metal inner mold core 1, a right metal inner mold core 2, a middle partition 3 and a base 4. The left metal inner mold core 1 and the right metal inner mold core 2 are two separate independent parts with mirror-uniform symmetry. The left metal inner mold core 1, the right metal inner mold core 2 and the middle partition 3 can be assembled into a strict and complete inner mold core, and the middle partition 3 is located in the middle of the left metal inner mold core 1 and the right metal inner mold core 2. The left metal inner mold core 1, the right metal inner mold core 2 and the middle partition 3 are assembled and fixed on the base 4 to form a complete inner mold device.

[0026] In this embodiment, the left metal inner mold core 1, the right metal inner mold core 2, the middle partition plate 3 and the base 4 can be made of hard aluminum alloy material.

[0027] When using the inner mold device for grouting quartz crucible of the present embodiment, the middle partition 3 can be assembled and fixed on the base 4 first, and then the left metal inner mold core 1 and the right metal inner mold core 2 are symmetrically assembled and fixed on the base 4, and finally the corresponding outer mold gypsum mold is assembled and fixed on the base 4, and a closed mold cavity for grouting molding is formed between the inner and outer molds, and the required slurry is injected from the top opening of the outer mold gypsum mold. After the grouting blank is solidified and formed, the whole set of inner and outer molds are turned upside down as a whole (that is, the outer mold gypsum mold is at the bottom, and the inner mold mold is at the top), and then the base 4 is pulled up to be taken out, and then the middle partition 3 is pulled out, and the loosened left metal inner mold core 1 and the right metal inner mold core 2 are further gently taken out from the inner cavity of the blank, and finally the outer mold gypsum mold is inverted, and the blank automatically falls off from the inner cavity of the outer mold gypsum mold, and the required blank product is taken out.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] See also Figures 1 to 4 , based on the inner mold device for slip casting quartz crucible of Example 1, the following improvements are made:

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, a groove 7 of a certain depth is provided in the central area of ​​the joint surface of the left metal inner mold core 1 and the right metal inner mold core 2. The groove 7 can specifically be a concave rectangular surface, which can reduce the contact area between the joint surface of the left metal inner mold core 1 and the right metal inner mold core 2 and the middle partition 3 after assembly, so as to facilitate the middle partition 3 to be pulled out from between the left metal inner mold core 1 and the right metal inner mold core 2 during the later casting and demolding operation.

[0031] See also Figure 2 , Figure 3 A concave guide groove 5 is longitudinally provided on the center line of the joint surface of the left metal inner mold core 1 and the right metal inner mold core 2, and a convex guide block 8 is provided at the center line position of the two surfaces of the middle partition plate 3 corresponding to the left metal inner mold core 1 and the right metal inner mold core 2. The concave guide groove 5 and the convex guide block 8 can be tightly spliced ​​and can slide smoothly, which can prevent the middle partition plate 3 from damaging the inner wall of the crucible blank when it is pulled out from between the left metal inner mold core 1 and the right metal inner mold core 2.

[0032] See also Figure 2 , Figure 4 A convex assembling portion 6 is provided at the bottom where the left metal inner mold core 1 and the right metal inner mold core 2 contact the base 4, and a concave assembling opening 10 is provided on the top surface of the base 4. The concave assembling opening 10 can accommodate the complete inner mold core. The convex assembling portion 6 and the concave assembling opening 10 can be tightly assembled to prevent the left metal inner mold core 1 and the right metal inner mold core 2 from slipping against each other after being assembled with the base 4, thereby affecting the integrity of the casting blank.

[0033] The middle partition 3 is plugged and fixed to the base 4. For details, see Figure 3 , Figure 4 A convex insertion portion 9 is provided at the bottom where the middle partition 3 contacts the base 4, and an interface 12 is provided on the top surface of the base 4. The convex insertion portion 9 and the interface 12 can be tightly assembled to prevent the middle partition 3 and the fixed base 4 from slipping against each other after assembly, thereby affecting the integrity of the cast blank.

[0034] See also Figure 4 The outer periphery of the base 4 is an outer mold assembly step 11, which is used to assemble and fix the outer mold plaster mold, so that the outer mold plaster mold can be assembled with the inner mold device to form an internal grouting molding cavity.

[0035] When using the inner mold device for grouting quartz crucible of the present embodiment, the bottom convex insertion portion 9 of the middle partition 3 can be first inserted into the interface 12 of the base 4, and then the bottom convex assembly portions 6 of the left metal inner mold core 1 and the right metal inner mold core 2 can be symmetrically inserted into the concave assembly opening 10 of the base 4, and finally the corresponding outer mold gypsum mold is buckled into the outer mold assembly step 11, and a closed mold cavity for grouting molding is formed between the inner and outer molds, and the required slurry is injected from the top opening of the outer mold gypsum mold. After the grouting blank is solidified and formed, the whole set of inner and outer molds are turned upside down as a whole (that is, the outer mold gypsum mold is at the bottom, and the inner mold mold is at the top), and then the base 4 is pulled up to be taken out, and then the middle partition 3 is pulled out, and the loosened left metal inner mold core 1 and the right metal inner mold core 2 are further gently taken out from the blank inner cavity, and finally the outer mold gypsum mold is inverted, and the blank automatically falls off from the inner cavity of the outer mold gypsum mold, and the required blank product is taken out.

[0036] In addition, it should be understood that after reading the above description of the present invention, those skilled in the art may make various changes or modifications to the present invention, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined by the claims attached to this application.
