[0025] See also Figure 1-Figure 2 This embodiment discloses a new ingot mold tooling for casting, including a diverter module 1 and a steel mold module 2 connected thereto, the steel mold module 2 includes a plurality of molds 21, and the molten steel is diverted through the diverter module 1 to the molds 21 of the steel mold module 2 to form an ingot.
[0026] The flow diversion module 1 includes a tundish 11 and a diversion plate 12 connected to the outlet end of the tundish 11. The diversion plate 12 is provided with a diversion hole 13, and the diversion hole 13 corresponds to the inlet of the mold 21 of the steel mold module 2. Preferably, a filter is provided in the tundish 11 to prevent debris in the molten steel from clogging the diversion hole 13. During pouring, the molten steel first flows into the tundish 11 with a filter, flows into the inlet of the diversion plate 12 through the filter, and is orderly diverted by the diversion plate 12 to each mold 21.
[0027] In one embodiment, in order to prevent the tundish 11 and the diverter plate 12 from cracking during the pouring process and affecting the pouring process of the master alloy, the diverter module 1 further includes an anti-crack frame 14, such as Figure 3 As shown, the anti-crack frame 14 includes a first frame 141 and a second frame 142. The first frame 141 is constructed as a frame structure that matches the shape of the diverter plate 12. The bottom edge of the first frame 141 extends inward to form a supporting edge for supporting the diverter plate 12. The diverter plate 12 is located in the first frame 141, and the outer wall of the diverter plate 12 is attached to the inner wall of the first frame 141. It should be noted that the width of the supporting edge needs to be set according to the range of the diverter hole 13 to avoid the diverter hole 13. The second frame 142 corresponds to the position of the tundish 11 and matches the shape of the tundish 11. For example, the second frame 142 can be connected to the top of the first frame 141. During operation, the tundish 11 is placed in the enclosed range of the second frame 142, and the outer wall of the tundish 11 is attached to the inner wall of the second frame 142. The anti-crack frame 14 covers the tundish 11 and the diverter plate 12, so that even if cracks occur during operation, normal operation will not be affected. The anti-crack frame 14 can also limit the positions of the tundish 11 and the diverter plate 12. To ensure the overall strength and stability of the anti-crack frame 14, in this embodiment, the first frame 141 and the second frame 142 are preferably integrally formed and connected.
[0028] Combination Figure 3The steel mold module 2 includes a support portion 22 for supporting the mold 21. In this embodiment, the support portion 22 is constructed as a support frame structure in a rectangular body, and the mold 21 is placed within the support frame. Specifically, the support portion 22 includes a support bottom plate 221 in a rectangular structure, a support top frame 223 in a rectangular structure, and four groups of support columns 222 connected between the support bottom plate 221 and the support top frame 223. The length and width specifications of the support bottom plate 221 can be specifically set according to actual production requirements, workload and specifications of the mold 21. The support column 222 is preferably a high-strength, high-rigidity and light-weight steel structure, which is convenient for connection with the support bottom plate 221 and the support top frame 223. The connection method of the support column 222 and the support bottom plate 221 can be bolted, welded, clamped, etc., and can be selected according to actual needs. To ensure the connection strength, welding is usually preferred. The support top frame 223 is connected by four groups of square tubes to form an enclosure structure, and the square tube is also preferably a steel structure.
[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, illustratively, the number of molds 21 is 12 groups, but the number of molds 21 is not limited thereto and can be set to other numbers according to the operation requirements. In this embodiment, the mold 21 is constructed as a hollow tube structure, and multiple groups of hollow tube molds 21 are evenly distributed on the support bottom plate 221. The top ends of the hollow tube molds 21 extend above the support top frame 223 and are respectively connected to the diverter holes 13 of the diverter plate 12. Correspondingly, the number and position of the diverter holes 13 in the diverter plate 12 correspond to the mold 21. In this embodiment, by setting the mold 21 as an integrally formed hollow tube structure, the front-burst phenomenon that occurs in traditional combined mold casting can be avoided, and the step of assembling the mold 21 can be eliminated.
[0030] The mold 21 may be displaced or tilted during the movement of the ingot mold tooling, so that the diverter hole 13 of the diverter plate 12 is not centered with the mold 21. To ensure the stable setting of the mold 21, the support part 22 further includes a limit plate 224 mounted on the support top frame 223. The limit plate 224 is provided with a through hole for the mold 21 to pass through. The diameter of the through hole matches the outer diameter of the mold 21. The position of the mold 21 can be limited by the limit plate 224 to prevent it from shaking. Preferably, the support part 22 also includes a limit round block 225 fixedly connected to the top surface of the support bottom plate 221. The limit round block 225 is used to limit the bottom end of the mold 21. The number and position of the limit round block 225 correspond to the mold 21, and the outer diameter of the limit round block 225 matches the inner diameter of the mold 21. In this embodiment, the limit plate 224 and the limit round block 225 are respectively limited at the upper and lower ends of the mold 21, which can further improve the stability of the mold 21.
[0031] In a preferred embodiment, in order to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the internal mold 21, the support frame 223 is constructed as a detachable structure. Specifically, in the support frame 223, at least one group of square tubes is constructed as a detachable fence 226 structure, which is detachably connected between the corresponding two support columns 222, and the other square tubes in the support frame 223 are fixedly connected between the corresponding support columns 222. More specifically, Figure 5 As shown, the detachable fence 226 includes a tube body 2261 and L-shaped plugs 2262 fixedly connected to both ends of the tube body 2261. An insertion gap is reserved between the L-shaped plug 2262 and the tube body 2261. When assembling, the detachable fence 226 is inserted into one side of the support column 222 through the insertion gap. It can be understood that in other embodiments not shown, the four groups of square tubes of the support top frame 223 can also be connected between the corresponding two support columns 222 by bolt connection, clamping or other detachable methods.
[0032] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 6 In a preferred embodiment, the top of the hollow tube mold 21 is also connected to a fiber cap 5, the bottom outer diameter of the fiber cap 5 matches the inner diameter of the hollow tube mold 21, and is inserted into the hollow tube mold 21. The top of the fiber cap 5 is paved with a fiber blanket 4, the top surface of the fiber blanket 4 is attached to the bottom surface of the diverter plate 12, and the fiber blanket 4 is provided with a liquid guide hole corresponding to the diverter hole 13. In this embodiment, the fiber cap 5 plays a shrinkage compensation role, and the structure formed at the fiber cap 5 is the riser of each mother alloy. The fiber cap 5 can also prevent the mold 21 from loosening and deviating during the hoisting and pouring process, and the fiber blanket 4 can also protect the bottom surface of the diverter plate 12. On the other hand, due to the high specific gravity of the molten steel, it is very easy to overflow from between the diverter plate 12 and the hollow tube mold 21. The cooperation of the fiber cap 5 and the fiber blanket 4 can also prevent the molten steel from overflowing.
[0033] In order to facilitate the lifting of the ingot mold tooling, lifting ears 3 are fixedly connected around the supporting part 22.
[0034] Before using the new ingot mold tooling of the present embodiment for pouring, first assemble the tundish 11, the diverter plate 12 and the steel mold module 2 to form an ingot mold tooling, and bake and keep warm in a resistance furnace for more than 2 hours. After the ingot mold tooling is baked, the ingot mold tooling is hoisted to the melting chamber for pouring. During pouring, the molten steel first flows into the tundish 11 with a filter, flows into the inlet of the diverter plate 12 through the filter, and is orderly diverted into each mold 21 by the diverter plate 12, and then vacuum cooled for more than 30 minutes, and then the ingot mold tooling is hoisted out of the melting chamber and air-cooled to room temperature, and then the ingot mold tooling is disassembled. The steel ingot with larger shrinkage can be removed from the mold 21 by itself or assisted by a steel lifting machine.
[0035] In order to intuitively compare the alloy casting quality of the new ingot mold tooling provided in this embodiment and the traditional ingot mold tooling, the new ingot mold tooling provided in this embodiment and the traditional ingot mold tooling are used for alloy casting. The cast alloy is the same grade of precipitation-strengthened nickel-based high-temperature alloy GH4169. Table 1 is a comparison of the quality of the high-temperature alloy master alloy after casting using the two toolings:
[0036] Table 1 Quality comparison
[0037]
[0038] According to the data in Table 1, the improved new ingot mold tooling not only increases the number of master alloys that can be formed at one time, but also avoids the surface of the master alloy after forming due to mold closing. It is easier to demold than traditional tooling, effectively improving the surface quality of the master alloy and the assembly and disassembly efficiency.
