[0027] Example 1

[0028] Provide a Figure 1 The casting pouring system shown is used to produce a frame fifth wheel, such as Figure 2 As shown, the frame traction seat includes a forked start end 11, two forked ends 12 and a connecting rod portion 13 connecting the two forked ends, wherein the end of the forked end has an arc groove 14. The casting system is an investment casting system, which includes a wax mold 2 (wax mold see Figure 3 As shown), the basic silica sol mold shell coated with the wax mold and the reinforced silica sol mold shell 3 coated with the basic silica sol mold shell also include a straight runner 41 and a plurality of ingates arranged in a stepped manner on the straight runner, and the ingates are arranged near the bifurcated end of the frame traction seat. In this embodiment, there are two ingates, namely the first ingates 42 and the second ingates 43, wherein the first ingates 42 are connected to the bifurcated end 12 of the frame traction seat on the reinforced silica sol mold shell, and the second ingates 43 are connected to the connecting rod part 13 of the frame traction seat on the reinforced silica sol mold shell; a riser 5 is provided at the thick part of the corresponding frame traction seat on the reinforced silica sol mold shell 3, and combined with the structural characteristics of the frame traction seat, the number of risers 5 is two, which are respectively arranged on the bifurcated starting end 11 and the connecting rod part 13 of the frame traction seat of the reinforced silica sol mold shell, and the position arrangement of the two risers is conducive to the shrinkage compensation of the thermal node in the thick part. The riser 5 is connected with an exhaust strip 6, which has the functions of exhausting wax and exhausting gas, and is also used to assist in fixing the riser.

[0029] This casting system adopts investment casting to produce the frame traction seat. The silica sol shell setting can effectively avoid sand inclusion defects in the product. The side injection process and the stepped water inlet of the ingrate can significantly improve the internal quality of the product. The molten steel is poured into the cavity layer by layer from bottom to top through the ingrate. The molten steel fills the mold smoothly, which can reduce the turbulent state during filling and the local vortex in the cavity, which is conducive to slag and exhaust, and avoids local slag inclusion and air holes.

[0030] To prevent the casting from deforming at the arc groove, the first ingrowth also includes a process rib plate 7 embedded in the arc groove 14. A process hole 71 is also provided on the process rib plate 7 to prevent deformation. The process rib plate 7 is part of the ingrowth. During the pouring process, the process rib plate can stably and reliably support the arc groove structure.

[0031] Because the frame traction seat is large in size and has an irregular structure, the wax mold 2 cannot be placed stably after being prepared, so the casting pouring system is also equipped with the following Figure 3 The support mold 8 shown is structurally adapted to the wax mold 2 at the local supporting contact portion. The support mold 8 is used to support the wax mold to cool and shape, and prevent the wax mold from deforming when cooling.

[0032] In this embodiment, the number of basic silica sol shell layers is 3, and the number of reinforced silica sol shell layers 3 is 5. The material and thickness specifications used for each layer can be different and can be selected according to the actual situation of the frame traction seat. The reinforced silica sol shell 3 is a reverse copy shell in order to achieve the shell strength (i.e., to achieve the strength required for casting), and the greater the total thickness of the shell, the higher the strength.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the casting pouring system is combined with the specific process design requirements of the frame traction seat, and a mold shell rib 9 is also placed on the surface of the basic silica sol mold shell corresponding to the arc groove 14 of the frame traction seat. This place is also the thickest part of the frame traction seat. The mold shell rib 9 can enhance the local strength of the basic silica sol mold shell, prevent the liquid metal from causing deformation and cracking of the mold shell due to high temperature and internal pressure at the local weak parts of the cavity during pouring, and effectively prevent deformation and swelling of the thick part of the casting.

[0034] The casting pouring system of this embodiment has a compact structure and is easy to operate. The shell structure is stable. The arrangement of process ribs and shell ribs and the closed structural design of the casting pouring system can prevent shrinkage and stress deformation of the casting. The investment casting pouring system is used to replace traditional sand casting, which can avoid local slag inclusions and pores to the greatest extent. The surface roughness of the investment casting is Ra25~Ra5, which is significantly improved compared with the Ra50~R100 of sand casting, and the appearance quality of the casting is significantly improved, the possibility of rework in the casting production process is greatly reduced, the production efficiency is improved, and the manufacturing cost is reduced.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] A kind of Figure 1 The casting pouring system of the frame traction seat shown in the figure is an investment casting pouring system, which includes a wax mold 2 (wax mold see Figure 3 As shown), the basic silica sol mold shell coated with the wax mold and the reinforced silica sol mold shell 3 coated with the basic silica sol mold shell also include a straight runner 41 and a plurality of ingates arranged in a stepped manner on the straight runner, and the ingates are arranged near the bifurcated end of the frame traction seat. In this embodiment, there are two ingates, namely the first ingates 42 and the second ingates 43, wherein the first ingates 42 are connected to the bifurcated end 12 of the frame traction seat on the reinforced silica sol mold shell, and the second ingates 43 are connected to the connecting rod part 13 of the frame traction seat on the reinforced silica sol mold shell; a riser 5 is provided at the thick part of the corresponding frame traction seat on the reinforced silica sol mold shell 3, and combined with the structural characteristics of the frame traction seat, the number of risers 5 is two, which are respectively arranged on the bifurcated starting end 11 and the connecting rod part 13 of the frame traction seat of the reinforced silica sol mold shell, and the position arrangement of the two risers is conducive to the shrinkage compensation of the thermal node in the thick part. The riser 5 is connected with an exhaust strip 6, which has the functions of exhausting wax and exhausting gas, and is also used to assist in fixing the riser.

[0037] To prevent the casting from deforming at the arc groove, the first ingrowth also includes a process rib plate 7 embedded in the arc groove 14. A process hole 71 is also provided on the process rib plate 7 to prevent deformation. The process rib plate 7 is part of the ingrowth. During the pouring process, the process rib plate can stably and reliably support the arc groove structure.

[0038] Because the frame traction seat is large in size and has an irregular structure, the wax mold 2 cannot be placed stably after being prepared, so the casting pouring system is also equipped with the following Figure 3 The support mold 8 shown is structurally adapted to the wax mold 2 at the local supporting contact portion. The support mold 8 is used to support the wax mold to cool and shape, and prevent the wax mold from deforming when cooling.

[0039] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the number of layers of the basic silica sol type shell is 2, and the number of layers of the reinforced silica sol type shell 3 is 4.

[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the casting pouring system is combined with the specific process design requirements of the frame traction seat, and a mold shell rib 9 is also placed on the surface of the basic silica sol mold shell corresponding to the arc groove 14 of the frame traction seat. This place is also the thickest part of the frame traction seat. The mold shell rib 9 can enhance the local strength of the basic silica sol mold shell, prevent the liquid metal from causing deformation and cracking of the mold shell due to high temperature and internal pressure at the local weak parts of the cavity during pouring, and effectively prevent deformation and swelling of the thick part of the casting.
